On Monday November 17, Dan Gunter the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer submitted his resignation as an officer and employee of the registrant in connection with a corporate restructuring initiated by the Company's Board of Directors in light of current economic conditions. Mr. Gunter has agreed to provide consulting services to the Company for a period of 18 months and will be paid his regular salary through the date of his resignation including accrued vacation. He will receive $25,000 per month for 18 months for his consulting services. Mr. Gunter's previously granted restricted stock award will terminate without vesting as result of the resignation.

Chairman John Alexander stated that the Board of Directors has determined, due to the current economic recession and financial market upheaval, the best course of action for the Company is to maintain its focus on its agriculture operations, delay any material effort to expand into income producing real estate or other activities, and move aggressively to reduce both operating costs and capital expenditures. Alico will continue to work toward the entitlement of some of its properties that are expected to show market interest at some point in the future. Alico plans to defer any expansion outside of its core competencies at this time.

Steven M. Smith, age 47, has been named Alico's President and Principal Executive Officer. Mr. Smith has been employed by Alico for over 14 years during which time he has been involved in almost all of Alico's agricultural operations and served as the Company's Senior Vice-President of Agricultural Operations since November 2006. Prior to that he was Vice President of Citrus Operations. Mr. Smith currently serves on the Florida Citrus Commission as well as on the board of directors of Gulf Citrus Growers Association. Mr. Smith will be paid a base salary of $255,000 per year and will be eligible for a bonus equal to up to 50% of his base salary based on his achievement of measurable goals established by the Board of Directors.
