To be Held at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on September 7, 2023

This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AMREP Corporation (the “Company”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held on September 7, 2023, and at any continuation or adjournment thereof (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held at the Hilton Garden Inn, 3743 West Chester Pike, Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073.

The Annual Report of the Company on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 filed on July 25, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this mailing but does not constitute a part of the proxy solicitation material. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and proxy card are first being sent to shareholders on or about August 2, 2023. All references in this Proxy Statement to 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021 mean the Company’s fiscal years ended April 30, 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CONCERNING THE ANNUAL MEETING

What will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

There are three matters scheduled for a vote:

| · | Proposal Number 1: Election of one director in Class III to hold office until the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is elected and qualified;

| · | Proposal Number 2: Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement; and

| · | Proposal Number 3: Ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.

What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

How does the Board recommend I vote on the proposals?

The Board recommends that you vote:

| · | “For” the election as director of the nominee named in this Proxy Statement;

| · | “For” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement; and

| · | “For” the ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 17, 2023, the date fixed by the Board in accordance with the Company’s By-Laws, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

If I have given a proxy, how do I revoke that proxy?

Anyone giving a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by giving the Secretary of the Company written notice of the revocation, by submitting a proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting.

How will my proxy be voted?

All properly executed, unrevoked proxies in the enclosed form that are received in time will be voted in accordance with the shareholders’ directions and, unless contrary directions are given, will be voted “For” the election as director of the nominee named in this Proxy Statement, “For” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement and “For” the ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024 and, if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

What if the nominee is unwilling or unable to serve?

This is not expected to occur but, in the event that it does, proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board or, in the discretion of the Board, the position may be left vacant.

What are “broker non-votes”?

Under the rules that govern brokers, if brokers or nominees who hold shares in “street name” on behalf of beneficial owners do not have instructions on how to vote on matters deemed by the New York Stock Exchange to be “non-routine” (which include Proposal Numbers 1 and 2 in this Proxy Statement), a broker non-vote of those shares will occur, which means the shares will not be voted on such matters. If your shares are held in “street name,” you must cast your vote or instruct your nominee or broker to do so if you want your vote to be counted with respect to Proposal Numbers 1 and 2 in this Proxy Statement. Proposal Number 3 relating to the ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024 is a matter on which brokers or nominees who hold shares in “street name” on behalf of beneficial owners who have not been given specific voting instructions are allowed to vote such shares.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count votes as follows:

| · | for Proposal Number 1 (for the election of a director), votes “For” and “Withhold” and broker non-votes; and

| · | for Proposal Number 2 (approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement), votes “For” and “Against,” abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions are treated as shares present and entitled to vote on Proposal Number 2 and, therefore, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” Proposal Number 2; and

- 2 -

| · | for Proposal Number 3 (ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024), votes “For” and “Against,” abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions are treated as shares present and entitled to vote on Proposal Number 3 and, therefore, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” Proposal Number 3.

Broker non-votes have no effect and will not be counted towards the vote total for any proposal.

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

| · | With respect to Proposal Number 1 (for the election of a director), the nominee receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes from the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote will be elected as a director. This is referred to as a plurality.

| · | Proposal Number 2 (approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement) must receive “For” votes from the holders of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote in order to be approved.

| · | Proposal Number 3 (ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024) must receive “For” votes from the holders of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote in order to be approved.

How many shares can be voted at the Annual Meeting?

As of July 17, 2023, the Company had issued and outstanding 5,271,309 shares of common stock, par value $.10 per share (“Common Stock”). Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on matters to come before the Annual Meeting.

How many votes will I be entitled to cast at the Annual Meeting?

You will be entitled to cast one vote for each share of Common Stock you held at the close of business on July 17, 2023, the record date for the Annual Meeting, as shown on the list of shareholders at that date prepared by the Company’s transfer agent for the Common Stock.

What is the deadline for voting?

If you are a shareholder of record and you choose to cause your shares to be voted by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card, your proxy card must be received before the Annual Meeting in order for your shares to be voted at the Annual Meeting.

If you hold your shares in street name, please comply with the deadline for submitting voting instructions provided by the broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares.

What is a “quorum?”

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company authorized to vote will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will be counted in determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. A quorum must be present at the beginning of the Annual Meeting in order to transact business at the Annual Meeting.

- 3 -

Who may attend the Annual Meeting?

All shareholders of the Company who owned shares of record at the close of business on July 17, 2023 may attend the Annual Meeting. If you want to vote in person and you hold Common Stock in street name (i.e., your shares are held in the name of a broker, dealer, custodian bank or other nominee), you must obtain a proxy card issued in your name from the firm that holds your shares and bring that proxy card to the Annual Meeting, together with a copy of a statement from that firm reflecting your share ownership as of the record date, and valid identification. If you hold your shares in street name and want to attend the Annual Meeting but not vote in person, you must bring to the Annual Meeting a copy of a statement from the firm that holds your shares reflecting your share ownership as of the record date and valid identification.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be tallied by the inspector of election after the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL NUMBER 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTOR

The Board is a classified board divided into three classes – Class I, Class II and Class III. Class II and III each consists of one director and Class I consists of two directors. Each director serves for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders held in the third year following the year of his election and until his successor is elected and qualified. At this Annual Meeting, one Class III director will be elected to serve until the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is elected and qualified, except in the event of such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. The terms of office of the Class I and Class II directors will expire at the annual meetings of shareholders to be held in 2024 and 2025, respectively, upon the election and qualification of their successors, except in the event of any such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

At the recommendation of its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board is nominating Albert V. Russo, who is the incumbent Class III director, for election at the Annual Meeting. Although the Board does not expect that Mr. Russo will be unable to serve as a director, should he become unavailable it is intended that the shares represented by proxies in the accompanying form will be voted for the election of a substitute nominee designated by the Board or, in the discretion of the Board, the position may be left vacant.

PROPOSAL NUMBER 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION PAID TO THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company’s shareholders are entitled to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers subject to the vote is disclosed in the compensation table and related narrative disclosure contained in this Proxy Statement.

The Board is asking the shareholders to indicate their support for the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement by casting a non-binding advisory vote “For” the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of AMREP Corporation hereby APPROVE, on a nonbinding advisory basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the executive compensation table and narrative discussion disclosed therein.”

Because the vote is advisory, it is not binding on the Board or the Company. In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act, the vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers shall not be construed: (i) as overruling any decision by the Company or the Board; (ii) to create or imply any change in the fiduciary duties of the Company or the Board; or (iii) to create or imply any additional fiduciary duties for the Company or the Board. Nevertheless, the views expressed by the shareholders, whether through this vote or otherwise, are important to management and the Board and, accordingly, the Board and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee intend to consider the results of this vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements.

Advisory approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this matter at the Annual Meeting.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION PAID TO THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSAL NUMBER 3

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company has appointed the firm of Baker Tilly US, LLP, certified public accountants, as the independent registered public accounting firm to make an examination of the consolidated financial statements of the Company for 2024, and the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee recommend that the shareholders ratify this appointment. Baker Tilly US, LLP has served as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company since September 2022. A representative of Baker Tilly US, LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

While shareholder ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required, the Company values the opinions of its shareholders and believes that shareholder ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is a good corporate governance practice. If a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting are against ratification of Baker Tilly US, LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain Baker Tilly US, LLP and may retain that firm or another firm without resubmitting the matter to the Company’s shareholders. If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will seek to understand the reasons that the shareholders did not ratify its selection of Baker Tilly US, LLP. The Audit Committee will be under no obligation, however, to select a new independent auditor. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent auditor at any time during the year if it determines that such change would be in the Company’s best interests and in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders.

Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On September 12, 2022, the Company dismissed Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee approved the dismissal of Marcum LLP. The audit reports of Marcum LLP on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for each of the fiscal years ended April 30, 2022 and April 30, 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the Company’s fiscal years ended April 30, 2022 and April 30, 2021 and during the subsequent interim period from May 1, 2022 through September 12, 2022, (i) there were no disagreements with Marcum LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures that, if not resolved to Marcum LLP’s satisfaction, would have caused Marcum LLP to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K). The Company provided Marcum LLP with a copy of the disclosures in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 14, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A copy of Marcum LLP’s letter dated September 12, 2022 to the Securities and Exchange Commission, stating whether it agrees with the statements made in such Form 8-K, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to such Form 8-K.

Appointment of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On September 12, 2022, the Audit Committee engaged Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2023. During the Company’s fiscal years ended April 30, 2022 and April 30, 2021 and during the subsequent interim period from May 1, 2022 through September 12, 2022, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company’s behalf consulted Baker Tilly US, LLP regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Baker Tilly US, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

Governance Standards

The Company’s Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and the Company is subject to the New York Stock Exchange’s Corporate Governance Standards (the “Governance Standards”). The Governance Standards, among other things, generally require a listed company to have independent directors within the meaning of the Governance Standards as a majority of its board of directors and for the board to have a nominating/corporate governance committee, an audit committee and a compensation committee, each composed entirely of independent directors.

Based principally on their responses to questions to these persons regarding the relationships addressed by the Governance Standards and discussions with them, the Board has determined that other than his service as a director, each of Edward B. Cloues, II, Robert E. Robotti and Albert V. Russo has no material relationship with the Company, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company, and, therefore, meets the director independence requirements of the Governance Standards.

As required by the Governance Standards, the Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) that address various matters involving the Board and the conduct of its business. The Board has also adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics setting forth principles of business conduct applicable to the directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, as well as the charters of the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Audit Committee and Compensation and Human Resources Committee, may be viewed under “Corporate Governance” on the Company’s website at www.amrepcorp.com, and written copies will be provided to any shareholder upon written request to the Company at AMREP Corporation, 850 West Chester Pike, Suite 205, Havertown, Pennsylvania 19083, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The Company intends to disclose on its website any amendment to or waiver of any provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. The Company’s Insider Trading Policy, which applies to all employees and directors, includes, among other provisions, a prohibition of any hedging or monetization transactions involving the Company’s securities.

Directors are expected to attend annual meetings of shareholders, and all of the directors attended last year’s annual meeting. The Board held seven meetings during the last fiscal year. All of the directors attended all of the meetings held during the last fiscal year of the Board and its Committees of which they were members. Pursuant to the Guidelines, the Board has established a policy that the non-management directors meet in executive session at least twice per year and that the independent directors also meet in executive session at least twice per year. The Chairman of the Board (currently, Edward B. Cloues, II), if in attendance, will be the presiding director at each such executive session; otherwise, those attending may select a presiding director.

Any shareholder or other interested person wishing to communicate with the Board or any of the directors may send a letter addressed to the member or members of the Board to whom the communication is directed in care of AMREP Corporation, 850 West Chester Pike, Suite 205, Havertown, Pennsylvania 19083, Attention: Corporate Secretary. All such communications will be forwarded to the specified addressee(s).

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Board has a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee that operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. Each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is required to be an independent director, as defined by the Governance Standards. The members of this Committee are Messrs. Cloues (Chairman), Robotti and Russo, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be an independent director within the meaning of the Governance Standards. This Committee reports regularly to the Board concerning its activities. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held two meetings during the last fiscal year.

- 13 -

The duties of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include identifying individuals the Committee considers qualified to be elected Board members consistent with criteria approved by the Board, and recommending persons to be nominated by the Board for election by the shareholders. When considering a nominee for election as a director, the Committee considers the experience, skills and knowledge of business and management practices a candidate may possess and the perspective he or she may bring to the Board, and employs criteria calling for, among other things, personal and professional integrity, good judgment, a high level of ability and business acumen, and experience in the Company’s industries, as well as the ability of the nominee to devote sufficient time to performing his or her duties on the Board in an effective manner. Although the Committee has no specific policy regarding the diversity of the membership of the Board, it is the objective of the Committee that the Board be comprised of persons of diverse backgrounds such that as a unit the members of the Board will possess the necessary skills to appropriately discharge their responsibilities as the Company’s directors. The Committee is also responsible for periodically reviewing and recommending changes to the Guidelines and for overseeing the Company’s corporate governance practices.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for director recommended by shareholders on the same basis as any other proposed nominees. Any shareholder desiring to propose a candidate for selection as a nominee of the Board by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for election at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders may do so by sending a written communication no later than May 1, 2024 to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, AMREP Corporation, 850 West Chester Pike, Suite 205, Havertown, Pennsylvania 19083, Attention: Corporate Secretary, identifying the proposing shareholder, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock held by such shareholder and stating the name and address of the proposed nominee and the information concerning such person that the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission require be included in a proxy statement relating to such person’s proposed election as a director.

Audit Committee

The Board has an Audit Committee that operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. Each member of the Audit Committee is required to be an independent director, as defined by the Governance Standards. The members of this Committee are Messrs. Cloues (Chairman), Robotti and Russo, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be an independent director within the meaning of the Governance Standards. The Board has also determined that Mr. Robotti qualifies as an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. This Committee reports regularly to the Board concerning its activities. The Audit Committee held five meetings during the last fiscal year.

The duties of the Audit Committee include (i) appointing the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, approving the services to be provided by that firm and its compensation and reviewing that firm’s independence and performance of services, (ii) reviewing the scope and results of the yearly audit by the independent registered public accounting firm, (iii) reviewing the Company’s system of internal controls and procedures, (iv) reviewing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the Company’s annual and quarterly financial statements, (v) reviewing the Company’s financial reporting and accounting standards and principles and (vi) overseeing the administration and enforcement of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. In addition to the Audit Committee’s responsibilities set forth above, the Audit Committee has, pursuant to its charter, primary responsibility for the oversight of risks that could affect the Company.

- 14 -

Compensation and Human Resources Committee

The Board has a Compensation and Human Resources Committee that operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. Each member of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee is required to be an independent director, as defined by the Governance Standards. The members of this Committee are Messrs. Robotti (Chairman), Cloues and Russo, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be an independent director within the meaning of the Governance Standards. This Committee reports regularly to the Board concerning its activities. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee held two meetings during the last fiscal year.

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives applicable to the Company’s chief executive officer and determining his compensation and that of the Company’s other executive officers and making recommendations to the Board concerning other matters relating to executive officer and director compensation. With respect to salaries, bonuses and other compensation and benefits, the decisions and recommendations of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee are subjective and are not based on any list of specific criteria. In the past, factors influencing the Committee’s decisions regarding executive salaries have included the Committee’s assessment of the executive’s performance and any changes in functional responsibility. In determining the salary to be paid to a particular individual, the Committee applies these and other criteria, while also using its best judgment of compensation applicable to other executives holding comparable positions both within the Company and at other companies. Executive officers of the Company do not play a role in determining their compensation. Neither the Board nor the Committee has engaged compensation consultants for the purposes of determining or advising upon executive or director compensation.

Risk Oversight

The Board is actively involved in risk oversight and management of risk. The Board has ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risks facing the Company and for the management of those risks, including overseeing cybersecurity and other information technology security matters, with the Audit Committee conducting preliminary evaluations of risk and addressing risk prior to review by the Board. The Audit Committee considers and reviews with management the Company’s internal control processes. The Audit Committee also considers and reviews with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the adequacy of the Company’s internal controls, including the processes for identifying significant risks or exposures, and elicits recommendations for the improvement of such procedures where needed. In addition to the Audit Committee’s role, the full Board is involved in the oversight and administration of risk and risk management practices by overseeing members of senior management in their risk management capacities. Members of the Company’s senior management have day-to-day responsibility for risk management and establishing risk management practices, and members of management are expected to report matters relating specifically to the Audit Committee directly thereto, and to report all other matters directly to the Chairman of the Board or the Board as a whole. Members of the Company’s senior management have an open line of communication to the Chairman of the Board and the Board as a whole and have the discretion to raise issues from time-to-time in any manner they deem appropriate, and management’s reporting on issues relating to risk management typically occurs through direct communication with directors, the Chairman of the Board or the Audit Committee as matters requiring attention arise.

In furtherance of its risk oversight responsibilities, the Board has evaluated the Company’s overall compensation policies and practices for its employees to determine whether such policies and practices create incentives that could reasonably be expected to affect the risks faced by the Company and its management, has further assessed whether any risks arising from these policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company, and has concluded that the risks arising from the Company’s policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Under the terms of the AMREP Corporation 2016 Equity Compensation Plan and subject to the provisions of the applicable award agreement, restrictions on certain awards under the AMREP Corporation 2016 Equity Compensation Plan shall automatically lapse upon a change in control of the Company.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Compensation for the non-employee members of the Board is approved by the Board, which considers recommendations for director compensation from the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee. Compensation provided to the non-employee members of the Board is as follows:

| · | Each non-employee member of the Board is paid an annual cash fee of $30,000 in equal quarterly installments.

| · | On the last trading day of each calendar year, each non-employee member of the Board will be issued the number of deferred common share units of the Company under the AMREP Corporation 2016 Equity Compensation Plan equal to $30,000 divided by the closing price per share of Common Stock reported on the New York Stock Exchange on such date.

| · | The Chairman of the Audit Committee is paid an annual fee of $7,500 in equal quarterly installments. The Chairman of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee is paid an annual fee of $3,750 in equal quarterly installments. Other members of the Audit Committee and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee are not paid any fee with respect to service on such committees. The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, including its Chairman, serve without additional compensation.

| · | In addition to the fees described above, Edward B. Cloues, II is paid an annual fee of $95,000 for his services as Chairman of the Board in equal monthly installments.

| · | All amounts are pro-rated to reflect any director’s removal or retirement from the Board, any decision that a director not stand for reelection to the Board or any new director being appointed or elected to the Board; provided that, any deferred common share units of the Company that would have been issued on the last trading day of a calendar year to a director who ceased to be a director prior to such issuance date shall be paid in cash rather than as deferred common share units of the Company, where the cash payment will equal the number of shares underlying the pro rata number of deferred common share units that would have been issued to the director multiplied by the closing price per share of Common Stock reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day of the calendar year.

| · | There are no separate meetings fees for the Board or any committee thereof.

The Board believes that significant stock ownership by Board members further aligns their interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders. Accordingly, each current non-employee director is expected to maintain ownership of at least 30,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Newly elected non-employee directors would be expected to meet this level of ownership within five years of their election to the Board and to maintain such ownership thereafter. Non-employee members of the Board may satisfy the ownership guidelines with Common Stock in these categories: shares owned directly or indirectly and time-vested restricted stock, deferred stock units or restricted stock units. The Board may modify this policy in its discretion.

The following table summarizes the compensation earned by the Company’s directors for 2023:

Name |  | Fees Earned or Paid in Cash ($) |  |  | Stock Awards ($)(1)(2) |  |  | Total ($) |
Edward B. Cloues, II |  |  | 132,500 |  |  |  | 30,000 |  |  |  | 162,500 |
Robert E. Robotti |  |  | 33,750 |  |  |  | 30,000 |  |  |  | 63,750 |
Albert V. Russo |  |  | 30,000 |  |  |  | 30,000 |  |  |  | 60,000 |

| (1) | The amounts indicated represent the grant date fair value related to awards of deferred common share units during 2023 computed in accordance with stock-based accounting rules (Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718). The determination of this value is based on the methodology set forth in Note 11 to the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2023.

| (2) | The following table sets forth the number of deferred common share units issued to each non-employee director on the last trading day of calendar year 2022 and the total number of deferred common share units outstanding with respect to each non-employee director (where each deferred common share unit represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock within 30 days after the first day of the month to follow such director’s termination of service as a director of the Company).

The closing price per share of Common Stock reported on the New York Stock Exchange was $11.47 on the last trading day prior to the acquisition. As of the date of closing of the transaction, the repurchased shares were retired and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock. There are no other transactions with related persons that are required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During 2023, there were no interlocking relationships involving the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation and Human Resources Committee, or the board of directors or compensation committee of any other company, that are required to be disclosed under Item 407 of Regulation S-K.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s directors, officers and holders of more than 10% of its Common Stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes of ownership of the Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange. Based solely on a review of the copies of the reports filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission and certain written representations from the directors and executive officers, the Company believes that for 2023 all required Section 16(a) reports were filed on a timely basis, except that Edward B. Cloues, II failed to file on a timely basis one Section 16(a) report during 2023 with respect to one transaction (namely, Mr. Cloues filed a Form 4 on September 26, 2022 with respect to an acquisition of Common Stock that occurred on September 21, 2022) and that James H.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

The Company will bear the cost of this solicitation of proxies. In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail, the Company may reimburse brokers and other nominees for the expense of forwarding proxy materials to the beneficial owners of Common Stock held in their names. Directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies on behalf of the Board but will not receive any additional compensation therefor.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS AND NOMINEES

From time to time, shareholders present proposals that may be proper subjects for inclusion in the Proxy Statement and for consideration at an annual meeting of shareholders. Shareholders who intend to present proposals at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and who wish to have such proposals included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be certain that such proposals are received by the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s executive offices, 850 West Chester Pike, Suite 205, Havertown, Pennsylvania 19083, not later than April 4, 2024. Such proposals must meet the requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement.

Shareholder proposals not included in the Company’s proxy statement and shareholder nominations for director by a shareholder may be brought before an annual meeting of shareholders in accordance with the advance notice procedures described in the Company’s By-Laws. In general, notice must be received by the Corporate Secretary not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting and must contain specified information concerning the matters to be brought before such meeting and concerning the shareholder proposing such matters. For the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company’s Secretary must receive notice of the proposal on or after May 10, 2024 and no later than June 9, 2024. Shareholder proposals must be in proper written form and must meet the detailed disclosure requirements set forth in the Company’s By-Laws, including a description of the proposal, the name of the shareholder and beneficial owner, if any, and such parties’ stock holdings and derivative positions in the Company’s securities, if any. If the Company holds the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders more than 30 days earlier or more than 60 days later than such anniversary date, the Company must receive your notice not earlier than the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

- 26 -

The Company’s By-Laws also require that shareholder proposals concerning nomination of directors provide additional disclosure, including information the Company deems appropriate to ascertain the nominee’s qualifications to serve on the Board, disclosure of compensation arrangements between the nominee, the nominating shareholder and the underlying beneficial owner, if any, and other information required to comply with the proxy rules and applicable law. The specific requirements of these advance notice provisions are set forth in Section 11 of the Company’s By-Laws, a copy of which is available upon request. In addition, for shareholder proposals concerning nomination of directors to be included on the Company’s universal proxy card in connection with the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the notice to the Company must also include the information required by 17 CFR §240.14a-19. All shareholder proposals and director nominations pursuant to the advance notice provision in the Company’s By-Laws should be sent to the Company’s Secretary at the offices of the Company, 850 West Chester Pike, Suite 205, Havertown, Pennsylvania 19083.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports to shareholders and, if applicable, notices of Internet availability of proxy materials, with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single copy of the material addressed to those shareholders. This process, commonly referred to as “householding,” is designed to reduce duplicate printing and postage costs. The Company and some brokers may household notices of Internet availability of proxy materials, annual reports to shareholders and proxy materials, by delivering a single copy of the material to multiple shareholders sharing the same address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders.

If a shareholder wishes to receive a separate notice of Internet availability of proxy materials, the annual report to shareholders or proxy statement, or if a shareholder received multiple copies of some or all of these materials and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future, the shareholder should submit a request by phone or in writing to the shareholder’s broker if the shares are held in a brokerage account or, if the shares are registered in the name of the shareholder, to the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Attn: Customer Service, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004-1561, cstmail@continentalstock.com, 800-509-5586.
