PALO ALTO, Calif., May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Glenbrook Capital Management ("Glenbrook" or "we"), a long-time shareholder of Tejon Ranch Co. (NYSE:TRC) ("Tejon" or the "Company") and owner of approximately 1.1% of outstanding shares of the Tejon, thanks CalSTRS for its vote FOR both Item #4 to allow Tejon shareholders owning a combined 10% of outstanding shares to call a special meeting of shareholders and FOR Bulldog Capital's state of nominees ("Bulldog's Slate") to the Tejon Board of Directors (the "Board") on Bulldog's GREEN Proxy Card.

"We are happy that CalSTRS has joined us, Bulldog and Harvey Capital in recognizing the urgent need for change to unlock value at Tejon for shareholders. We believe their votes FOR the shareholder proposal ("Item 4") submitted by PFS Trust — which would enable Tejon shareholders owning a combined 10% of outstanding Tejon shares to call a special meeting — and FOR Bulldog's Slate are aligned with the best interests of Tejon shareholders.

Importantly, casting votes using Bulldog's GREEN Proxy Card enables cumulative voting and maximizes the impact of shares voted for Bulldog's Slate.
