What Is This Proxy Contest About? This contest is about who are the right board members to evaluate opportunities for continued value creation – proven directors with relevant experience, or those selected by a foreign hedge fund with a unique tax status and interest in acquiring Stratus? 3 Our candidates have deep, relevant Texas real estate experience.

Executive Summary 5

Stratus is Successfully Executing for Shareholders Stratus Properties Inc. is a successful diversified real estate company with properties in Austin and other fast-growing Texas markets • The company acquires, entitles, develops, manages, leases and holds or sells commercial, multi- family and single-family residential real estate properties, as well as hotel and entertainment businesses that serve as cultural centers within their communities • Our active, engaged Board regularly evaluates opportunities for value creation • The company’s asset mix is now suitable for a REIT structure, and the Board is currently exploring whether conversion from a C-Corporation to a REIT structure would be beneficial for Stratus shareholders after an initial analysis showed significant potential benefits 6 SHARE PRICE $35.51 ENTERPRISE VALUE $550.4 mm P/TBV 3.0x MARKET CAP ~$292.4 mm Ten-Year TSR1 1 Source: FactSet.

Oasis Has Interests That Are Different Than Other Shareholders A B O U T O A S I S • Oasis is a Hong Kong-based hedge fund focused primarily on Asian equities • By virtue of its offshore domicile, Oasis’ U.S. tax status is different than the status of other Stratus investors • As Stratus’ only major foreign investor, Oasis has interests that are at odds with the majority of Stratus shareholders – it has launched an expensive proxy fight to impede the evaluation of a REIT conversion • Oasis had a representative on the Board for more than 3.5 years who supported the Company’s strategy (until the decision to explore a REIT conversion) and voluntarily resigned last year • A consortium formed by an Oasis principal made an offer to buy a bare majority of Stratus’ stock and made a subsequent low-ball offer to acquire the full company • Oasis has rejected the Company’s reasonable attempts at compromise, including our offer to add a director proposed by Oasis – Laurie Dotter – and another female director chosen by Stratus to the Board Oasis’ unique tax status and desire to acquire Stratus for the lowest possible price is in conflict with building longer-term value for all other shareholders. This is what is driving this distracting and unnecessary proxy campaign 7

2018-19 Oasis principal advises Stratus at various times that Oasis, or a consortium of investors that included the Oasis principal, is interested in buying a controlling interest in, but less than all of Stratus Oct 2019 Oasis principal is part of consortium that makes a highly conditional offer to buy all of Stratus’ stock for $30/share Sept 2020 Stratus announces plans to further explore a REIT conversion, Ms. Benson resigns from the Board and Oasis commences activist campaign Jan 2021 Board offers to add director proposed by Oasis and a second independent director – Oasis refuses to enter into reasonable settlement agreement Oasis’ first investment (est. $18.74/share for shares purchased, reflecting a 91% return to date as of April 2021)1 2016 2017 Oasis employee Ella Benson joins Stratus Board We Have Engaged Extensively with Oasis Over 5 Years 1 Source: Oasis Section 16 Filings 8 Stratus announces results of review of strategic alternatives Stratus enters into agreement to sell Block 21 for $275 million Stratus Board approves in-depth analysis of potential REIT conversion A B C B A C Ms. Benson votes for every Board and Compensation Committee resolution, except for her votes regarding the sale of Block 21 and the REIT conversion exploration

It is extraordinary. The prices people are paying, the lack of inventory. So, I think when you open the paper and you see Austin hot, hot, hot…” – Beau Armstrong, Full-Year 2020 Earnings Transcript

Preliminary Analysis of REIT Conversion Shows Promise Potentially significant benefits for the majority of shareholders: • Significant tax benefits for shareholders • Increased liquidity of Stratus shares • Improved access to capital • Increased attention by sell-side analysts • Regular dividends to shareholders 27 TAX SAVINGS A REIT conversion could result in substantial tax savings of approximately $54.4m or ~$6.56/share if all of Stratus’ assets were sold for their estimated gross values as presented in Stratus’ estimated Net Asset Value as of December 31, 2020 (based on a corporate-level income tax using the current 21% corporate tax rate). The tax savings would be even higher if corporate income taxes are raised from 21%, as currently proposed by the Biden administration.

Oasis’ Less Qualified Candidates Advance its Selfish Agenda 38

Oasis Has Different Interests Than Other Investors 1. As an offshore domiciled hedge fund, Oasis faces unique tax disadvantages if Stratus converts to a REIT 2. A consortium formed by an Oasis principal has previously expressed interest in buying a controlling interest or all of Stratus at a low price 39

Oasis Has a Unique, Tax-Driven Reason to Oppose REIT Conversion • Stratus has not paid regular dividends because it has been focused on recycling capital into its development program • If Stratus were to convert to a REIT, it would be required to issue dividends for at least 90% of taxable income • Foreign investors face a 30% withholding tax on all such dividends – U.S. investors do not face such withholding requirements and, since many U.S. REIT investors are non-taxable (e.g. retirement accounts or pension funds), many U.S. investors will pay no tax whatsoever on distributions • Oasis would be treated differently than our other shareholders if we begin to pay dividends, which is effectively required upon REIT conversion 40 - Oasis’ April 2021 Letter to Shareholders Oasis is trying to obfuscate how its foreign status affects its incentives; the fact is that Oasis is disadvantaged relative to our U.S. holders because of the 30% required dividend withholding tax that only applies to foreign entities

Oasis Aims to Stop Even the Evaluation of a REIT Conversion • Oasis principals intend to stop the evaluation of a REIT conversion • Oasis’ Board representative, Ella Benson, abstained from the vote to evaluate the REIT conversion in September 2020 • Ms. Benson resigned in September 2020 to clear the way for a proxy contest • Oasis seeks to reinstate Ms. Benson who is clearly opposed to the REIT conversion • Oasis, a 13.7% holder, seeks to install 3 of 8 representatives in an attempt to impede the REIT conversion evaluation – effectively removing the right to consider a conversion from shareholders if the Board moves forward 41 - Oasis’ March 2021 Presentation Would Oasis’ nominees represent ALL shareholders, or just Oasis’ interests?

Oasis May (Still) Want to Buy Stratus • A consortium formed by an Oasis principal proposed to buy all of Stratus’ stock at $30 per share in October 2019, contingent on retaining Beau Armstrong as CEO and securing necessary financing • That offer represented a mere 8% premium to the Company’s share price at the time, and at a substantial discount to its then Net Asset Value when Oasis was aware of Ryman’s proposal to buy Block 21 at a significant premium to NAV • The Board considered the offer and determined that the proposal was not in shareholders’ best interests. • Only a few weeks later, in December 2019, Stratus publicly announced an agreement to sell Block 21 to Ryman for $275 million, and the stock immediately traded through $30 per share 42 We have a concern that Oasis may not want a REIT conversion because it prefers to starve Stratus shareholders of liquidity and a fair valuation, so Oasis can again seek to buy Stratus below fair value

Oasis’ Candidates are not as Qualified as Stratus’ Candidates Ella Benson • The 35-year-old’s entire career has so far consisted of serving as an analyst at an asset management firm and an investment bank, as well as at Oasis • Ms. Benson was on the Stratus Board from January 2017 to September 2020 • While on Stratus’ Board, Ms. Benson demonstrated repeatedly her lack of knowledge about real estate • Ms. Benson is an employee of Oasis and lacks incentives to serve the interests of any other shareholder Jaime De La Garza Diaz • Mr. De La Garza Diaz has no significant relevant real estate experience in Texas • His only significant real estate experience is in Mexico, not in the U.S. • While experienced with Mexican industrial and commercial real estate, Mr. De La Garza Diaz has limited or no residential real estate experience to our knowledge • Mr. De La Garza Diaz has no apparent U.S. REIT experience 43 Stratus’ candidates, Jim Leslie and Neville Rhone, Jr., have deep, relevant experience in Texas real estate

Setting the Record Straight 44

Oasis is Wrong About Stratus’ Potential Suitability for REIT Conversion 45 Oasis False Claim Reality Cannot liquidate properties for five years After a REIT conversion, Stratus could sell assets immediately with no worse tax implications than today’s C-Corp double taxation. A REIT conversion is likely only to improve the tax implications of a sale of real estate by Stratus. Regionally-focused REITs trade at discount Stratus and its advisors are not aware of any evidence that investors systematically discount regionally-focused REITs, and have strong convictions that a REIT focused on one of the hottest real estate markets in the U.S. would be attractive to REIT investors. Multi-type property REITs trade at discount Stratus and its advisors are not aware of any evidence that investors systematically discount diversified REITs. Development assets are not well received by REIT investors Stratus has reduced its relative development exposure by increasing its proportion of stabilized rental income and plans to continue to do so. Are shareholders better off being taxed once (REIT) or twice (C-Corp) as now?

Other Oasis Claims are also Incorrect or Misleading 46 Oasis False Claim Reality “Stratus hired the CEO’s son, Buck Armstrong, as a consultant to the Company. Upon closer inspection, it appears that Buck is simultaneously employed by Stratus while not being categorized as an employee and managed to receive an award under the Company’s Profit Plan in 2019. Whatever the true nature of the relationship, the arrangement is problematic and, at the very least, is rife with conflict.” While on the Board for more than 3.5 years, Ms. Benson was aware of, and never expressed any concerns or spoke against, the consulting agreement that Oasis now purports to oppose. She repeatedly voted to approve disclosures related to it. Buck, a former J.P. Morgan real estate banker, had his consulting arrangement vetted by the Board. The consulting arrangement was approved by Stratus’ independent audit committee and fully disclosed in Stratus’ SEC reports. “Another questionable decision authorized by the Legacy Board includes a discretionary payout to a limited partner in Kingwood L.P. on October 31, 2019. Roughly 15 months after initial investment, Stratus redeemed the partner’s interest at approximately a 12% return. During this same period, Stratus’ stock returned negative 8.7%.” The LP invested $5.0 million in July 2018 during the first and highest-risk phase of development. Stratus acquired this position from the investor in October 2019 for $5.8 million. Based on the appraised NAV1, the estimated cash distribution from proceeds of a hypothetical sale of that position if it were sold in April 2021 would be nearly $9 million, a 60% increase in value. Besides believing (correctly) that the acquisition was a good investment, Stratus desired to accommodate the investor’s particularized desire to sell at that time, as Stratus may seek the investor’s support of other projects. 1 See appendix for definitions.

Conclusion 47

Summary • The Stratus Board and executive team have delivered substantial value for shareholders and are best positioned to drive further growth and value for our shareholders because of their complementary skills and their expertise in the fast-growing Austin and other Texas markets in which Stratus operates • Oasis has nominated two less qualified directors in an effort to change our successful strategy and push a self-serving agenda that conflicts with the best interests of the majority of our shareholders who are U.S.-based investors • Stratus' shareholders deserve a qualified, non-conflicted Board to evaluate their opportunities for value creation, including a potential REIT conversion 48

Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliation Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR). Represents the consistent rate at which an investment would have grown had the investment compounded at the same rate each year. Enterprise Value. A measure of a company's total value, often used as a more comprehensive alternative to equity market capitalization. Enterprise value includes in its calculation the market capitalization of a company but also short-term and long-term debt as well as any cash on the company's balance sheet. Equity Multiple. The equity multiple is the ratio of the sum of the total cash distributions from an investment to the total equity invested. Leveraged Internal Rate of Return (Leveraged IRR). The IRR is a discount rate for which the net present value of all cash flows is equal to zero. Leveraged IRR is the IRR of a project with the financing included. Net Asset Value (NAV) / NAV per share. This presentation includes NAV which is not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). NAV estimates the market value of Stratus’ assets (gross value) and subtracts the book value of Stratus’ total liabilities reported under GAAP (excluding deferred financing costs presented in liabilities), value attributable to third party owners, estimated HEB profits interests and profit participation incentive plan awards. Pre-tax NAV, which is a non-GAAP measure, estimates the market value of Stratus’ assets (or gross value) and subtracts the book value of Stratus’ total liabilities reported under GAAP (excluding deferred financing costs presented in liabilities). Stratus also presents the non-GAAP measure NAV per share, which is pre-tax NAV divided by shares of Stratus’ common stock, plus all outstanding stock options and restricted stock units outstanding as of year-end for the period presented. Stratus believes these measures can be helpful to investors in evaluating its business. NAV illustrates current embedded value in Stratus' real estate, which is carried on its GAAP balance sheet primarily at cost. Management uses NAV as one of the metrics in evaluating progress on Stratus' active development plan. NAV is intended to be a performance measure that should not be regarded as more meaningful than GAAP measures. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. As required by SEC Regulation G, reconciliations of Stratus' total stockholders' equity in its consolidated balance sheet to pre-tax NAV is included on slide 54. Peers / Proxy Peers. Proxy peers are Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc.;  CatchMark Timber Trust, Inc.; CTO Realty Growth, Inc.

Upon the recommendation of its independent compensation consultant FPL Associates L.P., Stratus’ Compensation Committee selected these companies as peers in connection with reviewing executive compensation. For additional information, see Stratus’ definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC. Price to Tangible Book Value (P/TBV). Represents a valuation ratio expressing the price of a security compared to its hard, or tangible, book value as reported in the company's balance sheet. Total Shareholder Return (TSR). Measures the change in value of an investment in stock over a specified period of time, assuming dividend reinvestment. TSR is subject to many different variables, including factors beyond the control of management. 53

54 1In the 12/31/14 NAV calculation, the gross value of $458.0 million does not include $137.2 million of value attributable to third party ownership. The total value of $595.2 million is consistent with the methodology used in the 12/31/19 NAV calculation. 2In the 12/31/14 NAV calculation, the $75.3 million value attributable to third party ownership includes $137.2 million of gross asset value less $61.9 million of debt.
