Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Separation-Related Agreements

 

On May 28, 2014, Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a separation and distribution agreement with FRP Holdings, Inc. (“FRP”), pursuant to which FRP agreed to transfer its transportation business to the Company (the “Separation”) and distribute 100% of the outstanding common stock of the Company to FRP shareholders in a tax-free distribution (the “Distribution”). The Distribution was made at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 30, 2015, to FRP shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 9, 2014. As a result of the Distribution, the Company is now an independent public company and its common stock is listed under the symbol “PATI” on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

 

In connection with the Separation and Distribution, on January 30, 2015, Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. (“Patriot”) entered into the following agreements with FRP Holdings, Inc. (“FRP”):

 

    Separation and Distribution Agreement;

 

    Tax Matters Agreement;

 

    Employee Matters Agreement; and

 

    Transition Services Agreement.

 

Separation and Distribution Agreement.

 

The Separation and Distribution Agreement sets forth Patriot’s agreement with FRP regarding the principal transactions necessary to separate Patriot from FRP.

 

Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities. The Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for certain transfers of assets and assumptions of liabilities that are necessary so that Patriot and FRP retain the assets of, and the liabilities associated with, their respective businesses. The Separation and Distribution Agreement requires Patriot and FRP to use reasonable efforts to obtain consents, approvals, and amendments required to novate or assign the assets and liabilities that are transferred.

 

The Distribution. The Separation and Distribution Agreement governs the rights and obligations of the parties regarding the distribution. The Separation and Distribution Agreement provides that FRP shall instruct the Distribution Agent to distribute, on or as soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, to each holder of record of FRP common stock as of the record date, by means of a pro rata dividend, one share of Patriot common stock for every three shares of FRP common stock held on the record date. Fractional shares will be aggregated and sold in the market, and the net proceeds will be distributed to the shareholders.

 

 

 
 

 

Conditions. The Separation and Distribution Agreement provides that the distribution is subject to several conditions that must be satisfied or waived by FRP in its sole discretion. All of the conditions to the distribution have been satisfied.

 

Insurance Matters. Patriot is responsible for obtaining and maintaining at its own cost all of its own insurance coverage following the separation. Following the separation, FRP is permitted to make claims under any applicable liability policies maintained by Patriot for events occurring before the separation without violating any anti-assignment provisions in the insurance policies. In no event shall either party (or their subsidiaries) have liability or obligation whatsoever to the other party (or its subsidiaries) in the event that any insurance policy or other contract or policy of insurance shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason whatsoever or shall not be renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

 

Releases and Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement, each party releases and forever discharges the other party and its subsidiaries and affiliates from all liabilities existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the separation. These releases will not extend to obligations or liabilities under any agreements between the parties that remain in effect following the separation pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement.

 

In addition, the Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for cross-indemnities that, except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement, are principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of the transportation business with Patriot and financial responsibilities for the obligations of liabilities of the real estate business with FRP.

 

Tax Matters Agreement.

 

The Tax Matters Agreement governs FRP’s and our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes (including taxes arising in the ordinary course of business and taxes, if any, incurred as a result of any failure of the distribution and certain related transactions to qualify as tax-free for federal income tax purposes), tax attributes, tax returns, tax contests and certain other tax matters.

 

In general, under the Tax Matters Agreement, responsibility for taxes for periods prior to the distribution will be allocated in the following manner:

 

    with respect to any U.S. federal income taxes of the affiliated group of which FRP is the common parent, Patriot generally will be responsible for such taxes to the extent attributable to the transportation business and all Patriot federal income tax filings and FRP generally will be responsible for all other such taxes;
       
    with respect to U.S. state or local income taxes, Patriot generally will be responsible for such taxes to the extent attributable to the transportation business and all Patriot income and franchise tax filings and FRP generally will be responsible for all other such taxes;
       
    with respect to any U.S. state or local property taxes, Patriot generally will be responsible for such taxes to the extent attributable to property owned by Patriot or one of its subsidiaries, and FRP generally will be responsible for all other such taxes; and
       

 

 
 

In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement imposes certain restrictions on Patriot and its subsidiaries (including restrictions on share issuances, business combinations, sales of assets and similar transactions) that are designed to preserve the tax-free status of the distribution and certain related transactions. The Tax Matters Agreement provides special rules allocating tax liabilities in the event the distribution, together with certain related transactions, is not tax-free. In general, under the Tax Matters Agreement, Patriot is responsible for any taxes imposed on FRP that arise from the failure of the distribution and certain related transactions to qualify as a tax-free transaction for federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) and certain other relevant provisions of the Code to the extent that the failure to qualify is attributable to actions, events, or transactions relating to our stock, assets or business, or a breach of the relevant representations or covenants made by Patriot in the Tax Matters Agreement.

 

The Tax Matters Agreement also sets forth the parties' obligations as to the filing of tax returns, the administration of tax contests and assistance and cooperation on tax matters.

 

Employee Matters Agreement.

 

The Employee Matters Agreement governs the parties' compensation and employee benefit obligations with respect to the current and former employees and non-employee directors of each company, and generally allocates liabilities and responsibilities relating to employee compensation and benefit plans and programs. The Employee Matters Agreement provides for the treatment of outstanding FRP equity awards and certain other outstanding annual and long-term incentive awards. The Employee Matters Agreement will provide that, after the effective date, employees of the transportation business will continue to participate in Patriot’s existing employee benefit program. With respect to stock option plans, FRP has assumed Patriot’s existing stock option plans, and Patriot has adopted a new equity incentive plan.

 

The Employee Matters Agreement will also provide that (i) the distribution does not constitute a change in control under existing plans, programs, agreements or arrangements and (ii) the distribution and the assignment, transfer or continuation of the employment of employees with another entity will not constitute a severance event under the applicable plans, programs, agreements or arrangements.

 

Transition Services Agreement.

 

The Transition Services Agreement sets forth the terms on which Patriot will provide to FRP, on a temporary basis, certain services or functions that the companies historically have shared. Transition services will include various corporate services. The Transition Services Agreement has a 12 month term with renewal options. FRP will compensate Patriot at an agreed rate for the transition services, including an allocable share of their total compensation and benefit costs.

 

 
 

The foregoing descriptions of these agreements are summaries of the material terms of these agreements; for the complete text of these agreements, please see the agreements filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement and Transition Services Agreement attached hereto as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively.

 

Debt Arrangements

 

Credit Facilities - In connection with the spin-off, on January 30, 2015, we entered into a new five year credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank N.A., that replaces FRP’s line of credit with Wells Fargo. The new credit agreement provides a $25 million revolving line of credit with a $10 million sublimit for stand-by letters of credit. The amounts outstanding under the credit agreement bear interest at a rate of 1.0% over LIBOR, which rate may change quarterly based on the Company’s ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated total capital. A commitment fee of 0.15% per annum is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the commitment, which fee may change quarterly based on the ratio described above. The credit agreement contains certain conditions and financial covenants, including limitations on the payment of cash dividends that are based on the Company’s consolidated retained earnings. In connection with the new credit facilities, The Company assumed and refinanced approximately $5.1 million of indebtedness of the Company that was attributable to the transportation group.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, until the end of the first full Patriot fiscal year occurring after the Distribution Date (and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs), each Party shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party’s information requests to enable (i) the other Party to meet its timetable for dissemination of its earnings releases and financial statements and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, and (ii) the other Party’s accountants to timely complete their review of the quarterly financial statements and audit of the annual financial statements, including, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor’s audit of its internal control over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the SEC’s and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s rules and auditing standards thereunder and any other Applicable Laws.

Section 5.2.

Litigation Cooperation.

(a)

Effective as of the Effective Time, the applicable member of the Transportation Group shall assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities of either Group that may result from the Transportation Group Assumed Actions and, subject to Section 6.4(c), all fees and costs relating to the defense of the Transportation Group Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Effective Time and are unpaid as of the Effective Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Effective Time. “Transportation Group Assumed Actions” means those Actions primarily relating to the Transportation Group Business.

(b)

Effective as of the Effective Time, the applicable member of the Real Estate Group shall assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities of either Group that may result from the Real Estate Group Assumed Actions and, subject to Section 6.4(c), all fees and costs relating to the defense of the Real Estate Group Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Effective Time and are unpaid as of or after the Effective Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Effective Time. “Real Estate Group Assumed Actions” means those Actions primarily related to the Real Estate Businesses.

18
 

 

(c)

Each Party agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Time if an Action relating primarily to its Business is commenced by a Third Party naming a member of each Group as defendants thereto, then such Action shall be deemed to be a Transportation Group Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the Transportation Business) or a Real Estate Group Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the Real Estate Businesses) and the Party as to which the Action primarily relates shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the other Party or member of its Group to be removed from such Action.

(d)

The Parties agree that at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action which does not relate primarily to either Party’s Business is commenced by a Third Party naming a member of each Group as a defendant thereto, then the Parties shall cooperate and consult to the extent necessary or advisable with respect to such Action.

(e)

Each Group shall use reasonable efforts to make available to the other Group and its attorneys, accountants, consultants and other designated representatives, upon written request, its directors, officers, employees and representatives as witnesses, and shall otherwise cooperate with the other Group, to the extent reasonably requested in connection with any Action arising out of either Group’s Business prior to the Effective Time in which the requesting Group may from time to time be involved.

Section 5.3.

Reimbursement. Each Group providing information or witnesses to the other Group or otherwise incurring any out-of-pocket expense in connection with cooperating under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 shall be entitled to receive from the recipient thereof, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payment for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees but excluding reimbursement for general overhead, salary and employee benefits) actually incurred in providing such access, information, witnesses or cooperation.

Section 5.4.

Ownership of Information. All information owned by one Party (or a member of its Group) that is provided to the other Party (or a member of its Group) under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to grant or confer rights of license or otherwise in any such information.

Section 5.5.

Retention of Records. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or agreed to in writing, each Party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, retain, in accordance with the practice of such Party applicable to the retention of its own information as in effect from time to time, any and all information in its possession or control relating to the other Group’s Business. Neither Party shall destroy, or permit the destruction, or otherwise dispose, or permit the disposal, of any such information, subject to such retention practice, unless, prior to such destruction or disposal, the Party proposing (or whose Group member is proposing) such destruction or disposal (the “Disposing Party”) provides not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), specifying the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of and the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal. If the Receiving Party shall request in writing prior to the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal that any of the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of be delivered to the Receiving Party, the Disposing Party shall promptly arrange for the delivery of such of the information as was requested at the expense of the Receiving Party; provided that in the event that the Disposing Party reasonably determines that any such provision of information would violate any Applicable Law or agreement to which such Party or member of its Group is a party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such Party or any member of its Group, the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to permit the prompt compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. Any records or documents that were subject to a litigation hold prior to the Distribution Date must be retained by the applicable Party until such Party or member of its Group is notified by the other Party that the litigation hold is no longer in effect.

19
 

 

Section 5.6.

Confidentiality. Each Party acknowledges that it or a member of its Group may have in its possession, and, in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, may receive, Confidential Information of the other Party or any member of its Group (including information in the possession of such other Party relating to its clients or customers). Each Party shall hold and shall cause its directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors (“Representatives”) and the members of its Group and their Representatives to hold in strict confidence and not to use except as permitted by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement all such Confidential Information concerning the other Group unless (a) such Party or any of the members of its Group or its or their Representatives is compelled to disclose such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law or (b) such Confidential Information can be shown to have been (i) in the public domain through no fault of such Party or any of the members of its Group or its or their Representatives, (ii) lawfully acquired after the Distribution Date on a non-confidential basis from other sources not known by such Party to be under any legal obligation to keep such information confidential or (iii) developed by such Party or any of the members of its Group or its or their Representatives without the use of any Confidential Information of the other Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Party or member of its Group or its or their Representatives may disclose such Confidential Information to the members of its Group and its or their Representatives so long as such Persons are informed by such Party of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and are directed by such Party to treat such information confidentially. The obligation of each Party and the members of its Group and its and their Representatives to hold any such Confidential Information in confidence shall be satisfied if they exercise the same level of care with respect to such Confidential Information as they would with respect to their own proprietary information. If such Party or any of a member of its Group or any of its or their Representatives becomes legally compelled to disclose any documents or information subject to this Section 5.6, such Party will promptly notify the other Party and, upon request, use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party’s efforts to seek a protective order or other remedy. If no such protective order or other remedy is obtained or if the other Party waives in writing such Party’s compliance with this Section 5.6, such Party or the member of its Group or its or their Representatives may furnish only that portion of the information which it concludes, after consultation with counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and will exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Each Party agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section 5.6 by it, the members of its Group and its and their Representatives.

Section 5.7.

Privileged Information.

(a)

The Parties acknowledge that members of the Real Estate Group, on the one hand, and members of the Transportation Group, on the other hand, may possess documents or other information regarding the other Group that is or may be subject to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or common interest privilege (collectively, “Privileges”; and such documents and other information collectively, the “Privileged Information”). Each Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to protect and maintain, and to cause their respective Affiliates to protect and maintain, any applicable Claim to Privilege in order to prevent any of the other Group’s Privileged Information from being disclosed or used in a manner inconsistent with such Privilege without the other Party’s consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Party and its Affiliates shall not, without the other Party’s prior written consent, (i) waive any Privilege with respect to any of the other Party’s or any member of its Group’s Privileged Information, (ii) fail to defend any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information, or (iii) fail to take any other actions reasonably necessary to preserve any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information.

20
 

 

(b)

Upon receipt by a Party or any member of such Party’s Group of any subpoena, discovery or other request that calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party or a member of its Group, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it or a member of its Group may have under this Section 5.7 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information. Each Party agrees that neither it nor any member of its Group will produce or disclose any information that may be covered by a Privilege of the Party or a member of its Group under this Section 5.7 unless (i) the other Party has provided its written consent to such production or disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered an order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under any applicable Privilege or otherwise requires disclosure of such information.

any Liability that is expressly specified in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to continue after the Effective Time, but subject to any limitation set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement relating specifically to such Liability; or

(iii)

any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than a member of the Real Estate Group or the Transportation Group or any related Released Party; provided, however, that the Parties hereto agree not to bring or allow their respective Subsidiaries to bring suit against the other Party or any related Released Party with respect to any such Liability.

In addition, nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall release any Party or any member of its Group from honoring its existing obligations to indemnify, or advance expenses to, any Person who was a director, officer or employee of such Party or any member of its Group, at or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent such Person was entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to then-existing obligations; provided, however, that to the extent applicable, Sections 6.2 and 6.3 hereof shall determine whether any Party shall be required to indemnify the other or a member of its Group in respect of such Liability.

(c)

It is the intent of each of the Parties hereto by virtue of the provisions of this Section 6.1 to provide for a full and complete release and discharge of all Liabilities existing or arising from all acts and events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Distribution Date between members of the Real Estate Group, on the one hand, and members of the Transportation Group, on the other hand (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between the Parties on or before the Distribution Date), except as expressly set forth in Section 6.1(b) or as expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.4.

Procedures.

(a)

The Party seeking indemnification under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice to the Party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding (each, a “Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will provide the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

23
 

 

(b)

The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim asserted by any Third Party (“Third-Party Claim”) and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.4, if it so notifies the Indemnified Party no later than 30 days after receipt of the notice described in Section 6.4(a), shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend or contest such Third-Party Claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.4. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party and such counsel with such information regarding such Third-Party Claim as either of them may reasonably request.

(c)

If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third-Party Claim, if the settlement does not release the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect to such Third-Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its related Indemnitees or is otherwise materially prejudicial to any such Person and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that in the event of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the applicable Indemnified Party, the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s expense.

(d)

Each Party shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(e)

Each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Losses payable under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 and the reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith will be treated as Losses subject to indemnification hereunder.

(f)

If any Third-Party Claim shall be brought against a member of each Group, then such Action shall be deemed to be a Transportation Group Assumed Action or a Real Estate Group Assumed Action in accordance with Sections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b), to the extent applicable, and the related Party shall be deemed to be the Indemnifying Party for the purposes of this Article 6. In the event of any Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not also named defendant, at the request of either the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, the Parties will use reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party or its applicable Affiliate for the named defendant in the Action.

24
 

 

Section 6.5.

Calculation of Indemnification Amount. Any indemnification amount pursuant to Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 shall be paid (i) net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable Third Party insurance policies or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible therefor, and (ii) taking into account any tax benefit actually realized and any tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the incurrence or payment of the relevant Losses. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable Third Party insurance policies, or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible for any Losses, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made by such Indemnifying Party in respect thereof up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party from such Third Party insurance policy or Third Party, as applicable. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Losses under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 to the extent such Losses are special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or lost profits (other than such Losses paid to Third Parties).

Section 6.6.

Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Real Estate Group, on the one hand, and the Transportation Group, on the other hand, in connection with the conduct, statement or omission that resulted in such Losses. In case of any Losses arising out of or related to information contained in the Form 10 or any amendment thereof or the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented), the relative fault of the Real Estate Group, on the one hand, and the Transportation Group, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact relates to information supplied by FRP or Patriot.

Section 6.7.

Non-Exclusivity of Remedies. Subject to Section 6.1, the remedies provided for in this Article 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Party at law or in equity; provided that the procedures set forth in Sections 6.4 and 6.5 shall be the exclusive procedures governing any indemnity action brought under this Agreement.

Section 6.8.

Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of any Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party under this Article 6 shall survive the sale or other transfer of any Party of any of its assets, Business or Liabilities.

ARTICLE 7.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 7.1.

Disputes. Except as otherwise specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement, the procedures for discussion, negotiation and mediation set forth in this Article 7 shall apply to all disputes, controversies or claims (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) that may arise out of or relate to, or arise under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby on or prior to the date hereof), or the commercial or economic relationship of the Parties relating hereto or thereto, between or among any members of the Real Estate Group, on the one hand, and any members of the Transportation Group, on the other hand.

25
 

 

Section 7.2.

Escalation; Mediation.

(a)

It is the intent of the Parties to use reasonable best efforts to resolve expeditiously any dispute, controversy or Claim between or among them with respect to the matters covered hereby that may arise from time to time on a mutually acceptable negotiated basis. In furtherance of the foregoing, a Party involved in a dispute, controversy or Claim may deliver a notice (an ”Escalation Notice”) demanding an in-person meeting involving representatives of the Parties at a senior level of management. Any agenda, location or procedures for such discussions or negotiations between the Parties may be established by the Parties from time to time; provided, however, that the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to meet within 30 days of the Escalation Notice.

(b)

If the Parties are not able to resolve the dispute, controversy or Claim, then the matter shall be referred to mediation. The Parties shall retain a mediator to aid the Parties in their discussions and negotiations by informally providing advice to the Parties. Any opinion expressed by the mediator shall be strictly advisory and shall not be binding on the Parties or be admissible in any other proceeding. The mediator may be chosen from a list of mediators previously selected by the Parties or by other agreement of the Parties. Costs of the mediation shall be borne equally by the Parties involved in the matter, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses. Mediation shall be a prerequisite to the commencement of any Action by either Party against the other Party.

(c)

In the event that any resolution of any dispute, controversy or Claim pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 7.2(a) or (b) in any way affects an agreement or arrangement between either of the Parties and a Third Party insurance carrier, the consent of such Third Party insurance carrier to such resolution, to the extent such consent is required, shall be obtained before such resolution can take effect.

Interest will be due on any underpayment or overpayment of Tax, computed from the date on which a final Return is filed at the rate equal to the “prime” rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition on such date.

(b)

If a portion or all of an unused loss or Tax credit is allocated to a member of the Consolidated Group, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-21(b) or Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-79, and is carried back or forward to a Taxable year in which such member filed a separate Return or consolidated, combined or unitary Return with an affiliated group that is not a Consolidated Group, any Refund or reduction in Tax liability arising from such carry back or carryover shall be retained by such member, subject to future audit adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, FRP, in its sole discretion, (i) shall determine whether an election shall be made to relinquish the entire carry back period with respect to part or all of a consolidated net operating loss for any Pre-Deconsolidation Period in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-21(b)(3) and (ii) may require Patriot to make an election to relinquish the entire carry back period with respect to all net operating losses and consolidated net operating losses attributable to Patriot in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-72(e)(1) (or any final, amended or successor version thereof that is substantively comparable).

(c)

Notwithstanding Section 7(b) above, no member of the Patriot Group shall make any election to carry back any Tax item from a Post-Deconsolidation Period to a Pre-Deconsolidation Period without FRP’s consent. In the event that FRP consents to the carry back of any Tax item by a member of the Patriot Group from a Post-Deconsolidation Period to a Pre-Deconsolidation Period or in the event that a member of the Patriot Group is required by applicable law to carry back a Tax item from a Post-Deconsolidation Period to a Pre-Deconsolidation Period, FRP shall currently compensate the Patriot Group only for a Tax item that is carried back which does not result in the loss or deferral of any Tax attribute of any member of the FRP Group. In the event that such item of a member of the FRP Group is only deferred, FRP shall make a payment to the Patriot Group in respect of such deferred item at the time the FRP Group actually realizes the deferred Tax attribute. To the extent the FRP Group suffers a permanent loss of such Tax attribute, no payment shall be made to the Patriot Group.

(d)

In the event that the Patriot Group is entitled to a Tax benefit by reason of a FRP Assumed Liability Payment, Patriot shall pay to FRP (A) the amount, if any, by which any Taxes payable by the Patriot Group are reduced by reason of the FRP Assumed Liability Payment and (B) any Refund of Taxes or other Tax benefit attributable thereto that is actually realized, in each case as determined by Patriot in consultation with FRP.

(e)

Patriot and FRP hereby acknowledge and agree that Sections 6 and 7(a) are applicable only with respect to Pre-Deconsolidation Periods for which a final Return is filed after the date hereof.

(f)

Deductions and Reporting for Certain Equity-Based Awards.

(i)

The entity issuing the equity awards and other incentive compensation described in Section 3.3 of the Employee Matters Agreement shall be entitled to claim any Tax deduction in respect of such equity awards and other incentive compensation on its respective Tax Return associated with such event.

(ii)

If, by reason of a subsequent Final Determination as to the treatment of any Tax deduction related to the equity awards and other incentive compensation referred to in subsection (f)(i) above, a Taxing Authority determines that (A) FRP or a member of the FRP Group is entitled to a deduction to which Patriot or a member of the Patriot Group is entitled pursuant to subsection (f)(i), then FRP shall, and shall cause the FRP Group to, pay to Patriot the amount of any resulting Tax benefits within 30 days of demand therefor, or (B) Patriot or a member of the Patriot Group is entitled to a deduction to which FRP or a member of the FRP Group is entitled pursuant to subsection (f)(i), then Patriot shall, and shall cause the Patriot Group to, pay to FRP the amount of any resulting Tax benefits within 30 days of demand therefor.

(g)

Except as specifically provided herein, with respect to any Tax Return that FRP has the obligation and right to file for any Pre-Deconsolidation Periods, such Tax Return shall be prepared in accordance with past practices, accounting methods, elections, or conventions (“Past Practices”) used by the Consolidated Group with respect to the Tax Return in question (unless there is no reasonable basis for the use of such Past Practices), and to the extent any items are not covered by Past Practices (or in the event that there is no reasonable basis for the use of such Past Practices), in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices. Neither FRP nor Patriot shall take a position on any Tax Return that is reasonably expected to cause a Tax Detriment to the other party without the written consent of such party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Other Taxes. All federal, state, local, foreign and other Taxes that are (i) not otherwise expressly dealt with herein or (ii) determined on a single-entity basis (including any federal excise Taxes and any franchise Taxes), and the filing of any Returns with respect to such Taxes, shall be the responsibility of the Person who is liable for such Taxes or is responsible for filing such Returns under applicable law.

Guarantees. FRP or Patriot, as the case may be, shall guarantee or otherwise perform the obligations of each member of the FRP Group or the Patriot Group, respectively, under this Agreement

 

14
 

Section 12.

Communication and Cooperation.

(a)

Consult and Cooperate. Patriot and FRP shall consult and cooperate (and shall cause each member of the Patriot Group or the FRP Group, respectively, to cooperate) fully at such time and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party in connection with all matters subject to this Agreement. Such cooperation shall include, without limitation,

(i)

the retention, and provision on reasonable request, of any and all information including all books, records, documentation or other information pertaining to Tax matters relating to the FRP Group and the Patriot Group, any necessary explanations of information, and access to personnel, until one year after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitation (giving effect to any extension, waiver, or mitigation thereof);

(ii)

the execution of any document that may be necessary (including to give effect to Section 13) or helpful in connection with any required Return or in connection with any audit, proceeding, suit or action; and

(iii)

the use of the parties’ best efforts to obtain any documentation from a governmental authority or a third party that may be necessary or helpful in connection with the foregoing.

(b)

Provide Information. FRP and Patriot shall keep each other fully informed with respect to any material development relating to the matters subject to this Agreement.

(c)

Section 13.

Audits and Contest.

(a)

Notice. FRP or Patriot shall promptly notify the other in writing upon the receipt of any notice of Tax Proceeding from the relevant Taxing Authority; provided, that a party’s right to indemnification under this Agreement shall not be limited in any way by a failure to so notify, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b)

FRP Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except to the extent provided in paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) below, FRP shall have the right to control all matters relating to any Tax Return or any Tax Proceeding with respect to any Tax matters of a Consolidated Group or any member of a Consolidated Group. FRP shall have absolute discretion with respect to any decisions to be made, or the nature of any action to be taken, with respect to any Tax matter described in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that FRP shall keep Patriot informed of all material developments and events relating to such matters to the extent they affect the Separate Group Tax Liability of the Patriot Group or may give rise to a claim for indemnity by FRP against Patriot under Section 10(a) of this Agreement; and at its own cost and expense, Patriot shall have the right to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any such tax claim.

If FRP determines that the resolution of any matter relating to a Tax Return or Tax Proceeding (other than a Tax Proceeding relating to the qualification of the Distribution under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code) is reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on Patriot Group with respect to any Post-Deconsolidation Period, FRP may permit Patriot to elect to assume control over disposition of such matter at Patriot’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that if Patriot so elects, it will (i) be responsible for the payment of any liability arising from the disposition of such matter notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary and (ii) indemnify the FRP Group for any increase in a liability and any reduction of a Tax asset of the FRP Group arising from such matter.

(d)

In the event of a Tax Proceeding relating to the qualification of the Distribution under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code, FRP shall have the right to control the defense of the matter in all proceedings before the IRS, provided that FRP shall keep Patriot fully informed of all material developments and shall permit Patriot a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the matter.

(e)

Patriot Control. Patriot shall have full control over all matters relating to any Tax Proceeding with respect to Returns of Patriot Group relating to any Post-Deconsolidation Period.

Except as otherwise provided, all payments required to be made pursuant to this Agreement will be due 30 days after the receipt of notice of such payment or, where no notice is required, 30 days after the fixing of liability or the resolution of a dispute. Payments shall be deemed made when received. Any payment that is not made when due shall bear interest at the rate equal to the “prime” rate as published on such date in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition. If, pursuant to a Final Determination, any amount paid by FRP or the members of the FRP Group or Patriot or the members of the Patriot Group, as the case may be, pursuant to this Agreement results in any increased Tax liability or reduction of any Tax asset of Patriot or any member of the Patriot Group or FRP or any member of the FRP Group, respectively, then FRP or Patriot, as appropriate, shall indemnify the other party and hold it harmless from any interest or penalty attributable to such increased Tax liability or the reduction of such Tax asset and shall pay to the other party, in addition to amounts otherwise owed, the After-Tax Amount. With respect to any payment required to be made or received under this Agreement, FRP has the right to designate, by written notice to Patriot, which member of the FRP Group will make or receive such payment.

16

Such net payment shall be made pursuant to the provision of Section 14(a).

Option Adjustment Methodology

•   

Each existing FRP stock option will be replaced with an option to purchase FRP common stock and a separate option to purchase Patriot common stock with a combined intrinsic (in-the-money) value equal to the intrinsic value of the existing option.

•  

 Each option will retain its existing vesting schedule and expiration date.

•   

Each replacement option will preserve the same ratio of the option exercise price to fair market value.

•   

The intrinsic value of the replacement options will be allocated between FRP and Patriot based on the relative total market capitalization of FRP and Patriot.

•   

The intrinsic value of the existing options will be determined based on the closing price of Patriot stock on the date of the spin-off (the spin-off occurs after market close). If FRP stock is being traded “ex-dividend” and Patriot stock is being traded “when issued,” the combined values will be used.

•   

The relative values of FRP and Patriot stock will be determined based on the market capitalization of each company, using “ex-dividend” and “when issued” prices on the date of the spin-off, if so traded, or based on the relative closing prices on the next trading day, if there is no “when issued” and “ex-dividend” trading.

•   

If the stock trades “when issued” and “ex-dividend,” the intrinsic value of the replacement options will be determined using the closing prices on the date of the spin-off.

•   

If there is no “when issued” and “ex-dividend” trading, the intrinsic value of the replacement options will be determined using the closing prices on the day after the spin-off.

 

Note:

The outstanding FRP stock options held by David H. deVilliers, Jr. will be replaced with options to purchase FRP common stock with the same intrinsic value as the existing FRP stock options, and the outstanding FRP stock options held by Robert E. Sandlin will be replaced with options to purchase Patriot common stock with the same intrinsic value as the existing Patriot stock options.

RECITALS

A.

Patriot and FRP have entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of January 30, 2015 (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which FRP will distribute all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Patriot to FRP’s shareholders (the “Distribution”).

B.

In order to facilitate the separation of Patriot from FRP and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) pursuant to the Separation Agreement, FRP desires, and Patriot is willing to provide or cause its Subsidiaries to provide, certain transition services upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Subsidiary” of FRP or Patriot means any Person in which FRP or Patriot has a fifty percent (50%) or greater ownership interest in such Person.

Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1.
TRANSITION SERVICES

Section 1.1

Patriot Obligations.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Transition Period (as defined below), Patriot will, or will cause one of its Subsidiaries to, provide to FRP and/or a designated Subsidiary of FRP the transitional services and assistance (each service, a “Transition Service,” and together, the “Transition Services”) at the cost set forth on Schedule A hereto.

Section 1.2

Term.

The obligations of Patriot to provide each respective Transition Service or cause such Transition Service to be provided hereunder will begin on February 1, 2015 (the ”Effective Date”), and will remain in effect for one (1) year after the Effective Date (the ”Initial Termination Date”); provided, however, that with respect to any Transition Service, FRP may, upon written notice to Patriot not less than 30 days prior to the Initial Termination Date, extend the term of such Transition Services for a subsequent transition period; provided, however, that such extension shall not be for a period of more than six (6) months unless the other party consents, in writing, to a period beyond six (6) months (the “Subsequent Transition Period”). For the purposes of this Agreement, the (a) term “Initial Transition Period” for each Transition Service means the period beginning on the date on which the Distribution occurs (the ”Closing Date”) and ending on the Initial Termination Date, and (b) the terms Initial Transition Period and Subsequent Transition Period are collectively referred to herein as the “Transition Period.”

 

 
 

 

Section 1.3

During the Transition Period, any or all of the Transition Services (i) may be modified in any respect upon mutual written agreement of Patriot and FRP, and (ii) may be terminated by FRP upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to Patriot.

Section 1.4

Employee Cooperation.

Patriot will cause its or its Subsidiaries’ employees providing the Transition Services (together, the “Patriot Employees”) to cooperate with the employees of FRP and/or its Subsidiaries (the “FRP Employees”) during the Transition Period, but neither Patriot nor its Subsidiaries will have any other duty or obligation with respect to such FRP Employees.

Section 1.5

Scope of Services.

Patriot will not be obligated to perform, or to cause to be performed, any Transition Services in a volume or quantity that unreasonably interferes with the operation of its business in the ordinary course provided, however, that Patriot will be required to provide Transition Services consistent with historical volume or quantity during the two years preceding the Distribution and such level of services will not be deemed to unreasonably interfere with the operation of the business of the party supplying such Transition Service.

Section 1.6

Standard of Performance; Standard of Care.

Patriot will perform, or will cause to be performed, the Transition Services (a) in such manner as is substantially similar in nature, quality and timeliness to the services provided by Patriot or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, prior to the date hereof and (b) in accordance with all Applicable Laws.

The obligations of secrecy and nonuse as set forth herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of five years. Excluded from this provision is any information available in the public domain and any information disclosed to any of the parties by a third party who is not in breach of confidential obligations owed to another person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party hereto may disclose Confidential Information (a) to its bankers, attorneys, accountants and other advisors subject to the same confidentiality obligations imposed herein and (b) as may be required by Law from time to time provided that the party required to disclose provide the other party, to the extent permitted, reasonable notice in order for such party an opportunity to oppose such disclosure.

In consideration for the Transition Services provided by or on behalf of Patriot under this Agreement during the Transition Period, FRP agrees to pay Patriot or a specified Subsidiary the monthly fees set forth in Schedule A attached hereto or such other amount as may be agreed by the parties in writing (the “FRP Fees”). Neither FRP nor any of its Subsidiaries will be responsible for any fees or expenses incurred by Patriot or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with its or their provision of the Transition Services hereunder.

Section 2.2

Force Majeure.

None of the parties will be liable to any other party for failure to perform or delays in performing any part of the Transition Services if such failure or delay results from an act of God, war, terrorism, revolt, revolution, sabotage, actions of a Governmental Authority, Applicable Laws, regulations, embargo, fire, strike, other labor trouble or any other cause or circumstance beyond the control of such party other than financial difficulties of the other party.

Adopted January 28, 2015

 

 

PATRIOT TRANSPORTATION HOLDING, INC.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

 

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

We at Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc., conduct business in strict compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the law and with an unwavering commitment to the highest standards of business and personal ethics. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) reflects these basic principles, but no code of conduct alone can address every possible situation or assure compliance with these standards. Each of our employees plays an important role in assuring compliance and in providing ethical leadership.

An uncompromising adherence to ethical excellence is integral to creating and sustaining the necessary strong foundation on which Patriot’s success is built and on which Patriot can grow and prosper.

Each Patriot employee is responsible for the consequences of his or her actions. We must be honest and ethical in our personal conduct as well as being guardians of Patriot’s high ethical standards.

Leaders in Patriot have the extra responsibility of setting an example by their personal conduct and attitude that conveys our ethical values. That example leads us to treat employees, customers, prospects, suppliers and competitors – with equal honesty and respect.

If you are unsure in any circumstance of the appropriate action, take advantage of our open door policy and raise your concerns with management. If you are still uncomfortable, follow the processes outlined in this Code.

Thompson S. Baker II

President and Chief Executive Officer

Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc.

 

 

 
 

 

APPLICABILITY

This Code applies to, Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. and each of our subsidiaries. In this Code, the terms “we,” “our,” “Patriot” and the “Company” refer to Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. and each of its subsidiaries. Each reference to our employees includes the employees of each of our subsidiaries.

This Code cannot address every situation which may arise in the course of business dealings. We expect our directors, officers and employees to use good judgment, high ethical standards, honesty and common sense in carrying out their duties and responsibilities.

If you are a supervisor or manager, you are responsible and accountable for ensuring that your employees understand and comply with this Code.

As part of Patriot’s commitment to ethics and compliance, all directors, officers and employees of Patriot and its affiliated companies have a duty to promptly report any actual or suspected misconduct. Failure to fulfill this duty is a violation of this Code and may result in disciplinary measures up to and including dismissal in appropriate cases.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Directors, officers and employees are expected to act and to make decisions that are in Patriot’s best interests and to avoid any situation which may present a potential or actual conflict between the interests of Patriot and their own personal interests.

A conflict of interest occurs when an individual’s private interest interferes, or appears to interfere, in any way with Patriot’s interests. No director, officer or employee should take any action that may make it difficult for any such individual to perform his or her duties, responsibilities and services in an objective and effective manner. No director, officer, or employee is allowed to work for or provide services to any business engaged primarily in any of the business of bulk tank truck transportation (the “company business”). No director, officer or employee, or any member of his or her immediate family, may accept employment with any entity or acquire a financial interest in any entity (excluding any entity in which such person holds not more than 5% of any class of stock, if such stock is listed on a national securities exchange) doing business with Patriot if the employment or interest would conflict with the individual’s performance of his or her duties and responsibilities to Patriot.

A conflict of interest also arises when a director, officer or employee, or any member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position with Patriot. In addition, Patriot is strictly prohibited from extending any personal loans to, or guaranteeing the personal obligations of, any director or officer.

Any director, officer or employee who may have a potential or apparent conflict of interest with the Company immediately should contact and provide to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company a written description of such actual or potential conflict of interest. Directors, officers and employees who fail to disclose all such conflicts of interest are subject to discipline, including dismissal.

COMPETITION AND FAIR DEALING

We seek to outperform our competition fairly and honestly. We seek competitive advantages through superior performance, never through unethical or illegal business practices. Stealing proprietary information, possessing trade secret information that was obtained without the owner’s consent, or inducing such disclosures by past or present employees of other companies is prohibited. Patriot personnel should endeavor to respect the rights of and deal fairly with our tenants, customers, suppliers, competitors and employees. Our personnel should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other intentional unfair-dealing practice.

The purpose of business entertainment and gifts in a commercial setting is to create good will and sound working relationships, not to gain unfair advantage with customers or vendors. No gift or entertainment should ever be offered, given, provided or accepted by any employee, family member of an employee or agent unless it: (1) is not a cash gift, (2) is consistent with customary business practices, (3) is not excessive in value, (4) cannot be construed as a bribe or payoff and (5) does not violate any laws or regulations or any gift policy that we may adopt from time to time. No employee should ever under any circumstances request a gift or free services from a vendor. Please discuss with your supervisor any gifts or proposed gifts which you are not certain are appropriate.

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

Directors, officers and employees are strictly prohibited from: (i) taking for themselves or personally benefiting from, opportunities that are discovered through the use of Company property, information or his or her position with the Company, (ii) using Company property, information, or his or her position with the Company for personal gain, and (iii) competing with the Company.

Directors, officers and employees owe a duty to the Company to advance its legitimate interests when a corporate opportunity arises. If a director, officer or employee is presented with a business opportunity competitive with the “company business” (as that term is defined in the Section of this Code titled “Conflicts of Interest”) from which the Company could, in the course of its business, profit, such individual must present the opportunity to the President of the Company.

CONFIDENTIALITY

Our success is highly dependent on maintaining the integrity of our confidential information and ensuring that such information is used only for its intended purposes. We often enter into confidentiality agreements with our customers in which we agree to preserve the confidentiality of their confidential information. Directors, officers and employees must maintain, and not improperly use or disclose, the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by us (including confidential information of our customers), except when such disclosure is mandated by the law. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be useful to our competitors or harmful to us or our customers, if disclosed.

PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF THE COMPANY’S ASSETS

Employees should protect our assets, including computers and related information technology assets, and ensure their efficient and effective use. Theft, loss, misuse, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on our success and profitability. We have acquired our assets for the sole purpose of conducting our business and operations. Our assets may not be used for personal benefit and may not be sold, loaned, given away, or disposed of without proper authorization. All of our assets should be used only for legitimate purposes and in accordance with established Company policies.

ACCURATE AND COMPLETE ACCOUNTING

Our accounting records must follow generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and other laws and regulations such as those of the Internal Revenue Service and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Laws and regulations require us to have and maintain internal controls to ensure the integrity of its financial statements. You are required to adhere to the following policies:

·                   All financial transactions (such as sales, leases or purchases) must be recorded truthfully, accurately, in a timely fashion and in sufficient detail so that our accounting records are reliable and fairly reflect the nature of the transactions.

·                   You may not make any false or misleading entries or maintain any unrecorded or secret fund, reserve, asset or account for any purpose.

·                   You may not make any payment or transfer of funds or assets for any purpose other than that described in the documents supporting the payment or transfer.

·                   No invoices believed to be false or fictitious may be paid.

·                   It is unlawful for you to fraudulently induce, coerce or mislead our independent public accountants to make our financial statements misleading.

Suspected breaches of improper treatment of an accounting transaction must be reported and investigated. We will not retaliate against any employee for filing a good faith complaint or for cooperating in an investigation of an alleged violation and will not tolerate or permit retaliation by management, employees or co-workers.

RECORD RETENTION

We will retain all books, records and statements in accordance with our record retention policies and all applicable laws and regulations. In some cases, it is a crime to alter, destroy, modify or conceal documentation or other objects that are relevant to litigation or a government investigation, including not only formal reports but all less formal data such as e-mails, expense reports and internal memos. If you are informed that information in your possession is the subject of litigation or a government investigation, or if you have other reasons to believe that such information may be involved in a judicial proceeding, no matter whether you think it is relevant or not, you are prohibited from making any effort to alter, destroy, modify or conceal that information.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

Obeying the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which this Company’s ethical standards are built. All Company personnel must respect and obey the laws of the cities, states and countries in which we operate. This includes, but is not limited to, laws on bribery and kickbacks, illegal political contributions and antitrust laws. Although not all Company personnel are expected to know the details of these laws, it is important to know enough to determine when to seek advice from supervisors, managers or other appropriate personnel.

INSIDER TRADING

Directors, officers and employees must not trade in the securities of the Company or any other entity on the basis of non-public, confidential information acquired as a result of his or her position with the Company. “Insider trading” is a serious criminal offense and constitutes an unethical behavior. Insider trading occurs, for example, when a person trades securities while in possession of material, non-public information about the company involved. Information is “material” if it would affect an average person’s decision whether to buy, hold or sell a security. Information is “non-public” if it has not been released to or absorbed by the investing public.

We strictly prohibit and will not tolerate insider trading by our directors, officers or employees. Please refer to our “Securities Trading Policy” for more information on our insider trading policies. If a question arises regarding the Securities Trading Policies, contact the Chief Financial Officer at (904) 858-9164 for assistance.

REPORTING OF UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR AND ACCOUNTING MATTERS

We encourage our directors, officers, and employees to talk with supervisors, managers, senior executive officers, committee members or any other appropriate person if there is any doubt about the best course of action for any particular situation. In addition, all directors, officers and employees should report all violations of any law, rule, regulation, listing standard or provisions of this Code. If the matter cannot be reported to these persons, then the individual should contact the Compliance Hotline at 1-800-750-4972 at any time.

We encourage our directors, officers and employees to report any concerns they may have regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. We have established controlled procedures to ensure that all such reports are confidential and anonymous.

No director, officer or employee will suffer retaliation in any form for reporting concerns in good faith. We will take appropriate corrective and/or disciplinary action against any person who retaliates against any director, officer or employee who reports a suspected violation of any law, rule, regulation, listing standard, or provision of this Code.

COMPLIANCE AND WAIVERS

We require our directors, officers and employees to strictly comply with this Code. Failure to comply may subject these persons to disciplinary action, including dismissal, as well as possible civil and criminal action.

The Board of Directors may grant to any director, officer or employee a waiver of any provision set forth in this Code. Any such waiver may be granted in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors. All such waivers granted to any officer or director must be promptly disclosed to the shareholders of the Company and as otherwise required by applicable laws and listing standards.
