Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (NYSE Amex: CTO), a publicly traded real estate company, announced today that it closed on a land purchase at year-end of three parcels approximating 17 acres from Halifax Hospital Medical Center for a sales price of $3,245,537.

The Company also announced the closing at year-end of a sale of the vacant former Barnes & Noble store in Lakeland, Florida, for $2.9 million. Mr. Albright stated, "Consistent with our ongoing business plan, the Company is actively identifying reinvestment opportunities through the Section 1031 tax-deferred exchange process to convert the proceeds from this sale into an income-producing property."

Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. is a Florida-based company primarily engaged in converting Company owned agricultural lands into a portfolio of net lease income properties strategically located in the Southeast, through the efficient utilization of Section 1031 tax-deferred exchanges.
