        26, 2006, Stratus Properties Inc.&#8217;s (Stratus) wholly owned subsidiary, Stratus
        Properties Operating Co., L.P., completed the sale of approximately 58 acres
        at
        its Lantana property in Travis County, Texas to Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
        (&#8220;Purchaser&#8221;) for total consideration of approximately $21.25 million. In
        addition to the sale of the 58-acre tract, Stratus granted to the Purchaser
        three independent options to purchase any or all of three additional tracts
        at
        Lantana (approximately 100 acres in the aggregate). Each of the three options
        will be granted for initial terms ranging from two to four years. Prior to
        the
        expiration of each option, the Purchaser will have successive annual options
        to
        extend each option for periods ranging from one to three years. All options
        will
        expire no later than five years after the sale of the 58-acre tract. The
        Purchaser had previously deposited $4 million in an escrow account, which
        was
        credited to the purchase price payable at closing. Stratus intends to use
        the
        net proceeds from the sale to reduce its outstanding debt.</font></div>

Entry
        into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
        April
        26, 2006, Stratus Properties Inc.'s (Stratus) wholly owned subsidiary, Stratus
        Properties Operating Co., L.P., completed the sale of approximately 58 acres
        at
        its Lantana property in Travis County, Texas to Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
        ("Purchaser") for total consideration of approximately $21.25 million. In
        addition to the sale of the 58-acre tract, Stratus granted to the Purchaser
        three independent options to purchase any or all of three additional tracts
        at
        Lantana (approximately 100 acres in the aggregate). Each of the three options
        will be granted for initial terms ranging from two to four years. Prior to
        the
        expiration of each option, the Purchaser will have successive annual options
        to
        extend each option for periods ranging from one to three years. All options
        will
        expire no later than five years after the sale of the 58-acre tract. The
        Purchaser had previously deposited $4 million in an escrow account, which
        was
        credited to the purchase price payable at closing. Stratus intends to use
        the
        net proceeds from the sale to reduce its outstanding debt.
