 Exhibit 10.49 
 INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT 
 Fairholme Capital Management,
L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Manager”), and The St. Joe Company, a Florida corporation (“Client”), for good and valuable consideration, hereby enter into this Investment Management Agreement, dated
as of April 8, 2013 (“Agreement”), and hereby agree that Manager shall act as discretionary adviser with respect to the assets of Client described below (“Investment Account”) on the following terms and
conditions: 
 1. Investment Account. The Investment Account shall consist of cash and securities of Client held in the
account identified in Schedule A. Client has established the account in its name at the financial institution in Schedule A (“Custodian”) and agrees to execute and deliver to Custodian such limited powers-of-attorney
or other authorizations as may be required by Custodian in order to fully establish and effectuate the discretionary authority granted to Manager hereunder. Neither Manager nor its affiliates will at any time act as custodian or have physical
custody of any assets in the Investment Account. Client authorizes Manager to instruct Custodian on Client’s behalf (a) to send to Client and Manager monthly statements showing all transactions occurring in the Investment Account during
the period covered by the account statement, and the funds, securities and other property in the Investment Account at the end of the period and (b) to provide Manager copies of all trade confirmations, periodic statements and other reports
relating to the Investment Account that Custodian sends to Client or receives with regard to the Investment Account. 
 2.
Services of Manager. By execution of this Agreement, Manager accepts appointment as investment adviser for the Investment Account with full discretion and agrees to supervise and direct the investments of the Investment Account for the sole
benefit of Client in accordance with the investment guidelines and restrictions described in Schedule B (as such may be amended and provided to Manager in writing from time to time, the “Investment Guidelines”). In the
performance of its services, Manager will not be liable for any error in judgment or any acts or omissions to act except those resulting from Manager’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance. Nothing herein shall in any way
constitute a waiver or limitation of any right of any person under the federal securities laws. 
 3. Discretionary
Authority. (a) Manager shall have full discretion and authority, without obtaining any prior approval, as Client’s agent and attorney-in-fact: (a) to make all investment decisions in respect of the Investment Account on
Client’s behalf and at Client’s sole risk; (b) to buy, sell, exchange, convert, liquidate or otherwise trade in any bond, other fixed-income securities or cash equivalent securities or shares of mutual funds (other than a fund advised
by Manager) in respect of the Investment Account; (c) to place orders with respect to, and to arrange for, any of the foregoing; and (d) in furtherance of the foregoing, to do anything which Manager shall deem requisite, appropriate or
advisable in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the selection of such brokers, dealers, and others as Manager shall determine in its absolute discretion. 
 (b) To the extent practicable and as permitted under applicable law, Manager is hereby authorized to, and Client agrees that Manager may, but is not obligated to, bunch or aggregate orders on behalf of
the Investment Account with orders on behalf of other clients. In such event, allocation of the securities purchased or sold, as well as expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made in a manner which Manager considers to be the most fair and
equitable over time to all of its clients, including Client. 
 (c) Client acknowledges and agrees that: (i) advice given
and actions taken by Manager under this Agreement for the Investment Account may differ from advice given or the timing and nature of action taken by Manager in managing its other client accounts or the accounts of Manager or any of its principals,
affiliates, members, officers, or employees; (ii) while Manager seeks to treat all clients fairly and equitably over time, it cannot guarantee that the Investment Account will receive identical treatment to other client accounts, even if other
client accounts receive significant financial gain as a direct result 

 
of unequal treatment; (iii) Manager may purchase or sell securities for the Investment Account in which Manager or any of its principals, affiliates, members, officers, or employees, may
have and continue to have or may acquire a position or interest and nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Manager, or any of its principals, affiliates, members, officers, or employees, from acquiring or disposing of any securities; and
(iv) nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to impose on Manager any obligation to purchase or sell for the Investment Account any security or other asset which Manager, its principals, affiliates, members, officers, or employees may
directly or indirectly purchase or sell for its or their own accounts or for the account of any other client. 
 4.
Brokerage. When placing orders for the execution of transactions for the Investment Account, Manager may allocate transactions to such brokers or dealers, for execution on such markets, at such prices and commission rates, as are selected by
Manager in its sole discretion. In selecting brokers or dealers to execute transactions, Manager need not solicit competitive bids and does not have an obligation to seek the lowest available commission cost. It is not Manager’s practice to
negotiate “execution only” commission rates, and, in negotiating commission rates, Manager shall take into account the financial stability and reputation of brokerage firms and brokerage and research services provided by such brokers.

 5. Reports. Manager shall provide Client monthly reports containing a detailed listing of invested assets and
transactions in the Investment Account. All records maintained pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to examination by Client and by persons authorized by it, or by appropriate governmental authorities, at all times upon reasonable notice.

 6. Fees and Expenses. (a) Neither Manager nor its control persons shall receive compensation in connection with
the services provided by Manager to Client hereunder. 
 (b) Client shall be responsible for all expenses incurred directly in
connection with transactions effected on behalf of Client pursuant to this Agreement and shall include: custodial fees; accounting service fees, investment expenses such as commissions; and other expenses reasonably related to the purchase, sale or
transmittal of Investment Account assets. 
 7. Confidential Relationship. All information and advice furnished by either
party to the other party pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated by the receiving party as confidential and shall not be disclosed to third parties except as required by law. By entering into this Agreement, Client expressly authorizes Manager
to provide any information that it obtains about Client to the broker-dealers through whom Manager executes transactions and to Custodian to the extent necessary to provide Client investment advisory services set forth herein. 

8. Assignment. No assignment of this Agreement shall be made by Manager or Client without the written consent of the other party
hereto. 
 9. Directions to Manager. All directions by or on behalf of Client to Manager shall be in writing signed by
Client. Manager shall be fully protected in relying upon any such writing which Manager reasonably believes to be genuine and signed or presented by Client. 
 10. Proxies/Legal Actions. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, Manager shall have no obligation or authority to take any action with respect to the voting of proxies solicited by or with
respect to issuers of securities held in the Investment Account. In addition, Manager shall have no obligation or authority to act on behalf of or advise Client on any legal proceedings, including class actions, concerning securities currently or
formerly held in the Investment Account. 

 11. Notices. All notices and instructions with respect to securities transactions or
any other matters contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given when delivered by hand or deposited in the United States mail with first-class postage affixed and addressed as follows:

In accordance with Section 5.2 of the Agreement, the Company hereby notifies Executive of the decision to terminate the
Executive’s employment without Cause. The effective date of termination (the “Date of Termination”) shall be a date in the future to be agreed upon by the parties and, until such Date of Termination, the parties agree to continue the
existing employment of Executive by the Company on a temporary, indefinite basis. Both the Company and the Executive agree to provide each other with at least a 60 day prior written notice of the official Date of Termination. The following sets
forth the parties’ understanding of the compensation due to Executive under the terms of the Agreement for a termination of employment by the Company other than for Cause: 

1. Compensation. Upon the Executive’s execution of the Company’s standard form of Severance Agreement, the Executive is
entitled to the following compensation as provided under Section 6.4 of the Agreement: 
  

	 	(a)	Payments made ratably over the 12 month period (with payments being made at the beginning of each such month) after the Date of Termination, in an amount equal to 1
times the Executive’s Salary; and 

  

	 	(b)	Payment of the Company’s portion of 18 months of COBRA premiums for health and welfare benefits that provide the Executive with coverage comparable to the level of
coverage the Executive has as of the Date of Termination under the Company’s group health plan. 

 2.
Bonus Request. In addition to the Paragraph 1 amounts, the company currently intends to submit for approval by the Company’s Compensation Committee, a discretionary cash bonus payable on the date that other company executive bonuses are
paid for the plan year in which the Date of Termination occurs, pro-rated through the Date of Termination. This proposed bonus is subject to approval by the Company’s Compensation Committee and the Executive understands and agrees that there is
absolutely no commitment by the Company in regard to such bonus. 
 3. Agreement Controls. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Agreement is not amended or revised hereby and the Company and the Executive shall abide by the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.
