Dear Shareholder:

 

The enclosed materials are being sent to you in connection with (i) the election of the type of consideration that you wish to receive pursuant to the proposed merger (the “Merger”) of BBX Capital Corporation (“BBX Capital”) and BFC Financial Corporation (“BFC”) as well as (ii) the waiver and release being sought from BBX Capital’s shareholders as a condition to closing the Merger.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement between the companies (the “Merger Agreement”), BBX Capital’s shareholders (other than BFC and shareholders who exercise and perfect their appraisal rights in accordance with Florida law) will have the right to receive, in exchange for each share of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock that they own at the effective time of the merger, at their election, $20.00 in cash, without interest, or 5.4 shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock. BBX Capital’s shareholders may specify different elections for different shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock that they own. Accordingly, BBX Capital’s shareholders may receive all stock consideration, all cash consideration, or a mix of stock and cash consideration in exchange for their shares. Each choice is more fully described in the enclosed materials.

 

Based on the anticipated closing of the Merger on December 15, 2016, the deadline to submit Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal will be 5:00 p.m., New York Time, on December 13, 2016. If the closing of the Merger is delayed to a subsequent date, the election deadline will be similarly delayed to a subsequent date (which will be the second business day prior to the new closing date of the Merger or such other time as mutually agreed by BFC and BBX Capital), and the companies will promptly announce any such delay and, when determined, the new election deadline. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to make your election through that broker, bank or other nominee, and you therefore may be subject to an earlier deadline. You should contact your broker, bank or other nominee promptly for information on how and when you must give them instructions for your election.

 

Consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon approval of the Merger Agreement by holders of shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the Merger Agreement and by the holders of a majority of the shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock voted on the Merger Agreement, excluding the shares voted by BFC and its affiliates. To ensure that your shares are represented at the special meeting of BBX Capital’s shareholders to be held for the purpose of voting on the Merger Agreement, please take a moment now to vote your shares. The proxy card for use in voting your shares or a voting instruction card from your broker, bank or other nominee was included with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (as defined below) previously sent to you.

 

 

In addition to the required approval of BBX Capital’s shareholders, consummation of the merger is subject to a number of other conditions, including (i) unless waived by BFC, that holders of not more than 150,000 shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock duly and validly exercise, or remain entitled to exercise immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, appraisal rights, and (ii) unless waived by BFC and BBX Capital, (A) the resolution of any litigation or threatened litigation against the companies or their affiliates relating to the Merger to the satisfaction of BFC and BBX Capital or (B) the receipt by BBX Capital of executed waivers and releases from unaffiliated holders of at least 2,250,000 shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock irrevocably waiving the right to participate in, or receive any proceeds from, any shareholder class action lawsuit relating to the Merger and releasing and discharging BFC, BBX Capital, Merger Sub (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Surviving Company (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers and other affiliates from any and all claims, demands, controversies, causes of action, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses, fees and damages arising out of the Merger Agreement other than in connection with the exercise of appraisal rights or any failure to pay or issue to the shareholder the stock consideration and/or cash consideration to which the shareholder is entitled pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the waiver and release being sought from BBX Capital’s shareholders, which contains instructions for submitting the waiver and release, is included as part of this mailing.

 

Additional information about the Merger Agreement and the Merger, including information on how to vote your shares, is included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus of BFC and BBX Capital, dated November 4, 2016 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), previously mailed to you.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “estimate,” “project,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “expect,” “believe” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward- looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the judgment of management and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should therefore be considered in light of various important factors, including, without limitation, those described or referred to below and those set forth in the “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” sections of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Risks and uncertainties associated with the Merger relate to, among other things: the parties’ ability to satisfy the conditions to closing the Merger and otherwise consummate the Merger on the contemplated terms; the potential benefits of the merger, including that expected benefits of the Merger described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus may not be realized to the extent anticipated, or at all; the substantial costs incurred and to be incurred by BFC and BBX Capital in connection with the Merger; diversion of management attention to the Merger instead of the operations of BFC and BBX Capital and their pursuit of business and investment opportunities; fluctuations in the trading prices of BFC’s Class A Common Stock and BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock; the impact of an adverse judgment in the purported class action litigation which has been filed in connection with the Merger; the impact of the cash payments which will be required to be made to shareholders of BBX Capital who elect or are otherwise entitled to receive cash consideration in connection with the Merger or who exercise appraisal rights; and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Further, the businesses of BBX Capital, BFC and their respective subsidiaries, including Bluegreen Corporation, are subject to a number of risks that would affect any such forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of BBX Capital’s and BFC’s respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of BBX Capital’s and BFC’s respective Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Qs for the fiscal quarters of 2016. The factors described or referred to above are not exclusive. The information contained herein speaks only as of the date hereof and neither BBX Capital nor BFC have or undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND WHERE TO FIND IT

 

The Merger Agreement is being submitted to the shareholders of BBX Capital for their consideration and approval at a special meeting of BBX Capital’s shareholders. In connection with the Merger, BFC filed with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), which includes a prospectus with respect to the shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock which may be issued in the Merger and a proxy statement of BBX Capital with respect to the special meeting of BBX Capital’s shareholders which will be held for the purpose of voting on the Merger Agreement. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 4, 2016. On or about November 9, 2016, BBX Capital commenced mailing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in definitive form to its shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 28, 2016.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR BBX CAPITAL
ELECTION FORM AND LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
(Please read carefully the instructions below)

 

1.       Introduction

 

On July 27, 2016, BFC Financial Corporation (“BFC”), BBX Capital Merger Subsidiary LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of BFC (“Merger Sub”), and BBX Capital Corporation (“BBX Capital”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended on October 20, 2016, the “Merger Agreement”) which provides for BBX Capital to be merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of BFC. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, BBX Capital’s shareholders (other than BFC and shareholders who exercise and perfect their appraisal rights in accordance with Florida law (“Dissenting Shareholders”)) will have the right to receive, in consideration for each share of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock they own at the effective time of the Merger, at their election, $20.00 in cash, without interest (the “Cash Consideration”), or 5.4 shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”). The Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration are referred to together as the “Merger Consideration.” BBX Capital’s shareholders may specify different elections for different shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock that they own. Accordingly, BBX Capital’s shareholders may receive all Cash Consideration, all Stock Consideration, or a mix of Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration in exchange for their shares.

 

Included with these General Instructions is an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal that you must complete, sign and return to Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Exchange Agent”) in order to make your election. The Election Form and Letter of Transmittal permits you to specify the type of Merger Consideration that you desire to receive in exchange for your shares. FOR YOUR ELECTION TO BE EFFECTIVE, THE EXCHANGE AGENT MUST RECEIVE YOUR COMPLETED AND EXECUTED ELECTION FORM AND LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, TOGETHER WITH ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS AND MATERIALS, AT THE APPLICABLE ADDRESS OF THE EXCHANGE AGENT SET FORTH ON THE ELECTION FORM AND LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL PRIOR TO THE ELECTION DEADLINE (AS DEFINED BELOW) (SEE INSTRUCTION 2).

 

A more detailed description of the Merger Agreement and of the election procedures is included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus of BFC and BBX Capital, dated November 4, 2016 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and mailed to you under separate cover. Before making your election, you should read the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, including all of its annexes, as well as the documents incorporated by reference into the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The Merger Agreement is included as Annex A to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

 

The tax consequences to you of the Merger and the election you make will depend on your own situation. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor as to the U.S. Federal income tax consequences of the Merger and the election you make, as well as the effects of state, local and non-U.S. tax laws.

 

Please read and follow carefully these General Instructions regarding completion of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal. These General Instructions, including the terms and conditions set forth herein, are considered part of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal.

 

If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to make your election through that broker, bank or other nominee, and therefore may be subject to an earlier deadline. You should contact your broker, bank or other nominee promptly for information on how and when you must give them instructions for your election.

 

Your submission of an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal does NOT constitute a vote for the approval of the Merger Agreement. You may submit an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal even if you have voted, or plan on voting, against the approval of the Merger Agreement, and must submit an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal if you would like to receive any Stock Consideration in exchange for your shares. In order to vote your shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock for or against the approval of the Merger Agreement, you must follow the voting procedures described in the Proxy

Statement/Prospectus and the accompanying proxy materials, or the voting instructions received from your broker, bank or other nominee.

You are solely responsible for delivery of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal and any other documents required hereby to the Exchange Agent. Delivery of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal to an address other than as set forth on the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal will NOT constitute a valid delivery to the Exchange Agent.

 

Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal must be received by the Exchange Agent no later than the election deadline (the “Election Deadline”), which will be 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the second business day prior to the effective time of the Merger. BFC and BBX Capital will publicly announce the anticipated Election Deadline at least five business days prior to the Election Deadline. If the effective time of the Merger is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Deadline will be similarly delayed to a subsequent date (which will be the second business day prior to the new effective time of the Merger or such other time as mutually agreed by BFC and BBX Capital), and the companies will promptly announce any such delay and, when determined, the new Election Deadline.

 

Please allow ample time for delivery of your Election Form and Letter of Transmittal. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you may have to allow additional time in order to make a timely election.

 

Any shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock for which the Exchange Agent does not receive a properly completed and executed Election Form and Letter of Transmittal by the Election Deadline will be deemed to be shares in respect of which no election has been made. Other than Dissenting Shareholders, BBX Capital shareholders will be entitled to receive solely Cash Consideration with respect to his, her or its shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock for which no election has been made or for which no election has been deemed to be made.

For any election to be effective, the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal must be accompanied by the certificate(s) evidencing your shares, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on BBX Capital’s books (or appropriate evidence as to loss, theft or destruction, appropriate evidence as to the ownership of that certificate by the claimant, and appropriate and customary indemnification, as described below) or confirmation of book-entry transfer, as applicable, and any required accompanying evidence of authority (unless the delivery of such certificate(s) or delivery of the applicable shares in book-entry form is guaranteed in the manner described in Instruction 9). No stop transfer instructions may be outstanding against any of the shares subject to such certificate(s) or confirmation of book-entry transfer. If you provide the certificate(s) evidencing your shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock or confirmation of book-entry transfer, you (i) represent that you have full authority to surrender without restriction such shares to the Exchange Agent for exchange and (ii) subject to the closing of the Merger and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, surrender without restriction such shares to the Exchange Agent for exchange.

surrendering shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock, by execution of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock for exchange upon closing of the Merger.

That replacement certificate will then be required to be timely submitted together with the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal and any other required documents in order for your election to be valid. You may be required to post a bond to secure against the risk that the certificates may be subsequently recirculated. An Election Form and Letter of Transmittal cannot be processed until a replacement certificate for a lost, stolen, misplaced or destroyed certificate has been submitted.

 

4.       Termination of Merger Agreement

 

In the event of termination of the Merger Agreement, the Exchange Agent will promptly return stock certificates representing shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock via registered mail or through a book- entry transfer for shares held in street name. The Exchange Agent and BBX Capital will use their commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate return of BBX Capital stock certificates in the event of termination of the Merger Agreement, but the return of certificates other than by registered mail will only be made at the expense, written direction and risk of the requesting shareholder, accompanied by a pre-paid, pre-addressed return courier envelope sent to the Exchange Agent.

Your Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, together with your stock certificate(s) or confirmation of book-entry transfer, as applicable, must be received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline (unless the delivery of such certificate(s) or delivery of the applicable shares in book-entry form is guaranteed in the manner described in Instruction 9). Do not send them to BFC or BBX Capital. The method of delivery (mail or overnight courier) of stock certificate(s), confirmation of book-entry transfer or Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, as applicable, to the Exchange Agent at the appropriate address of the Exchange Agent set forth on the front of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal is at the option and risk of the surrendering shareholder.

8.       Signatures

 

Registered Holders. The Election Form and Letter of Transmittal must be signed by the registered holder(s) EXACTLY as their name(s) appears on the stock certificate(s) being surrendered or guaranteed for delivery, or the confirmation of book-entry transfer being provided or guaranteed for delivery, as applicable, without any alteration or change whatsoever. If the shares subject to an election are owned of record by two or more persons, all such persons must sign the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal. If any shares are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrations.

 

Person(s) other than Registered Holders. If checks for cash or shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock are to be made payable to a person, or registered in the name of a person, other than the person(s) whose name(s) appears on the surrendered certificate(s) (or confirmation of book-entry transfer, as applicable), indicate in the box entitled “Special Issuance/Payment Instructions” the name(s) and address(es) of the person(s) to whom the check for cash should be made payable or in whose name the shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock should be registered. The shareholder(s) named will be considered the record owner(s) and must complete the box entitled “Signatures Required” and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9. The shareholder(s) named must pay any transfer or other similar tax required in connection with such payment or registration or must establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable. If the box entitled “Special Issuance/Payment Instructions” is completed, then signatures on the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a firm that is a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity which is a member in good standing of the Securities Transfer Agents’ Medallion Program, Stock Exchange Medallion Program or New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program (each, an “Eligible Institution”). If the surrendered stock certificates are registered in the name of a person other than the person signing the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, if issuance is to be made to a person other than the person signing the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, or if the issuance is to be made to a person other than the registered owner(s), then the surrendered certificates must be endorsed or accompanied by duly executed stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered owners appear on such certificate(s) or stock power(s), with the signatures on the certificate(s) or stock power(s) guaranteed by an Eligible Institution as provided herein. The signature of a notary public is not sufficient for this purpose.

 

Fiduciaries and Representatives. When signing the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal as trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer for a corporation in a fiduciary or representative capacity, or other person, please give full title as such. A corporation should sign in its full corporate name by a duly authorized officer, stating such officer’s title. A partnership should sign in the partnership name by an authorized person, stating such person’s title and relationship to the partnership. Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal executed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations in a fiduciary or representative capacity, or others acting in a fiduciary capacity who are not identified as such on the applicable registration must be accompanied by proper evidence of the signing person’s authority to act, or in lieu of such evidence, Guarantee of Signature as described below.

 

Correction of, or Change in, Name. For a correction of name or for a change in name which does not involve a change in ownership, you may proceed as follows: (a) for a change in name by marriage, etc., the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal should be signed, e.g., “Mary Doe, now by marriage Mary Jones” and (b) for a correction in name, the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal should be signed, e.g., “James E. Brown, incorrectly inscribed as J.E. Brown.” In such case, the signature on the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal must, however, be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. The signature of a notary public is not sufficient for this purpose.

Corporate Actions Voluntary COY: BFCC

 

Guarantee of Signatures. A signature guarantee is required on the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal if the name(s) of the person(s) executing the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal is different from the name(s) of the registered holder(s) of the shares covered thereby, and a signature guarantee is required on a stock power accompanying an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal if the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder(s) of the shares covered thereby. If the election is not for the account of a member of an Eligible Institution, a signature guarantee must be completed by an Eligible Institution. The signature of a notary public is not sufficient for this purpose.

 

9.       Notice of Guaranteed Delivery

 

In order for an election to be effective, a properly completed Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, together with the stock certificate(s) representing the shares covered thereby or confirmation of delivery in book- entry form (in each case, unless delivery is guaranteed as described below), must be received by the Exchange Agent by no later than the Election Deadline. Persons to whom stock certificate(s) or confirmations of delivery of shares in book-entry form are not immediately available also may make an election by completing the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, with the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery properly completed and duly executed by an Eligible Institution, and submitting it to the Exchange Agent by the Election Deadline. Any such election is subject to the condition that the stock certificate(s) or confirmation of book-entry delivery, the delivery of which is guaranteed by such completion and due execution, are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the third business day after the Election Deadline (the “Guaranteed Delivery Deadline”). Elections made with respect to stock certificate(s) or shares delivered in book-entry form that are received after the Guaranteed Delivery Deadline will not be valid.

 

10.  IRS form W-9

 

Under U.S. Federal income tax law, a non-exempt shareholder is required to provide the Exchange Agent with such shareholder’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”) on the enclosed IRS Form W-9. If the certificate(s) is in more than one name or is not in the name of the actual owner, consult the instructions in the enclosed IRS Form W-9 for additional guidance on which number to report. Failure to provide the information on the form may subject the surrendering shareholder to 28% back-up withholding on the payment of any cash. The surrendering shareholder must write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN if a TIN has not been issued and the shareholder has applied for a number or intends to apply for a number in the near future. If a TIN has been applied for and the Exchange Agent is not provided with a TIN before payment is made, the Exchange Agent will withhold 28% on all payments to such surrendering shareholders of any Cash Consideration in exchange for their shares. Please review the instructions in the enclosed IRS Form W-9 for additional details of what TIN to give the Exchange Agent. Exempt shareholders (including, among others, all C corporations and certain foreign individuals) are not subject to these backup withholding requirements. To prevent possible erroneous backup withholding, an exempt shareholder should indicate their exempt status on the IRS Form W-9. See the instructions in the enclosed IRS Form W-9 for additional instructions. In order for a nonresident alien or foreign entity to qualify as exempt from U.S. Federal withholding tax and backup withholding, such person must submit an appropriate IRS Form W-8 signed under penalties of perjury attesting to such exempt status. Such form can be obtained from the Exchange Agent or from the IRS’s website at www.irs.gov.

 

11.  Non-Electing Holders

 

BBX Capital shareholders who fail to make a valid election, including shareholders who do not validly and timely complete, execute and deliver to the Exchange Agent this Election Form and Letter of Transmittal and all other required documentation and materials, will be deemed not to have made an election. Other than Dissenting Shareholders, BBX Capital shareholders will be entitled to receive solely Cash Consideration with respect to his, her or its shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock for which no election has been made or for which no election has been deemed to be made. Any BBX Capital shareholder who seeks to exercise appraisal rights but who withdraws or loses his, her or its appraisal rights under the Florida Business Corporation Act and who does not make a valid election prior to the Election Deadline will be deemed to not have made an election with respect to his, her or its shares and, accordingly, will only have the right to the receive Cash Consideration in exchange for his, her or its shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock.

Corporate Actions Voluntary COY: BFCC

 

12.  No Fractional Shares

 

BBX Capital shareholders who elect to receive Stock Consideration will not receive any fractional shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock. Instead, the aggregate number of shares of BFC’s Class A Common Stock to be issued to each shareholder of BBX Capital who elects to receive Stock Consideration will be rounded up to the next largest whole share.

 

13.  Revocation or Change of Election Form and Letter of Transmittal

 

Any Election Form and Letter of Transmittal may be revoked or changed by written notice from the person submitting such form to the Exchange Agent, but, to be effective, such notice must be received by the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. Such notice must specify the person in whose name the election to be revoked has been submitted, the name of the registered holder thereof and the numbers shown on the certificate(s) or book-entry transfer representing the shares subject to the election being revoked. In the event that a Election Form and Letter of Transmittal is revoked, the shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock as to which an election was made in such Election Form and Letter of Transmittal will be treated as shares in respect of which no election has been made, except to the extent a subsequent election is properly made by the holder of such shares prior to the Election Deadline.

 

To change your election, you must revoke your election in accordance with the procedures set forth in the previous paragraph and deliver to the Exchange Agent a new Election Form and Letter of Transmittal. The new Election Form and Letter of Transmittal must be received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline and must otherwise comply with, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of, the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal (except for in relation to the delivery of previously-delivered certificate(s) or confirmation of delivery of shares in book-entry form representing surrendered shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock or a previously-delivered Notice of Guaranteed Delivery provided in accordance with Instruction 9).

 

You cannot revoke or change your election after the Election Deadline unless the Merger Agreement is thereafter terminated or the Election Deadline is thereafter delayed.

 

14.  Purchase, Sale or Transfer of Shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock

 

Holders of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock who have made elections will be unable to sell or otherwise transfer their shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock after making the election. By signing and submitting an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, you warrant that the shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock represented by the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal will not be sold, including through limit order request, unless the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal has been properly revoked in accordance with Instruction 13.

 

15.  Disputes

 

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal. Any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. None of BFC, BBX Capital, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any person of any defect in an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal.

 

16.  Cash Allocation Addendum (Optional)

 

If you own different blocks of shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock that you acquired at different times and/or at different prices and elect to receive a mix of Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration, you may (but are not obligated to) complete the Cash Allocation Addendum included herewith and return it together with your Election Form and Letter of Transmittal to specify the order of priority in which your different blocks of shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock are to be exchanged for Cash Consideration. The Cash Allocation

Corporate Actions Voluntary COY: BFCC

 

Addendum is solely for your individual tax position and will have no effect on BBX Capital, BFC or any of their respective affiliates. In particular, the Cash Allocation Addendum will have no effect on the amount of Cash Consideration or Stock Consideration you will receive in connection with the Merger, which will be determined by the election you make with respect to your shares and the terms of the Merger Agreement. Neither BBX Capital nor BFC, nor any of their respective affiliates, advisors or representatives, can provide you with any assurance about the effects of submitting the Cash Allocation Addendum, including whether the IRS will accept the Cash Allocation Addendum as a basis for the tax treatment of the Merger to you. You should consult your own tax advisor before completing the Cash Allocation Addendum. If any of your shares are held in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you should not complete the Cash Allocation Addendum with respect to those shares. However, you may consult your bank, broker or other nominee regarding the feasibility of making a similar allocation with respect to such shares.

 

17.  Elections Effective Only upon Completion of the Merger

 

An election made on the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal will be effective only upon the completion of the Merger, which is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. If the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason, all Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal will be void and of no effect.

 

18.  Miscellaneous

 

If the space provided in the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal is inadequate, your BBX Capital Class A Common Stock certificate numbers and the number of shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock represented thereby should be listed on a separate schedule and attached to the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal.

Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received , the rules under section 1446 require a p artnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay t he section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a part ner in a partnership conduct ing a trade or b usiness in the United St ates, provide Form W-9 to the p artnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of p artnership income.

Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use t he terms of a t ax t reaty to red uce or eliminate U.S. tax on cert ain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “ saving clause.” Excep tions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for cert ain types of income even after t he payee has otherwise become a U.S. resid ent alien for tax p urp oses. If you are a U.S. resid ent alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exempt ion from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must at tach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items: 1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exempt ion from t ax as a nonresident alien. 2. The treaty art icle addressing the income. 3. The article numb er (or location) in the t ax treaty that contains t he saving clause and its exceptions. 4. The type and amount of income that q ualifies for the exemption from tax. 5. Sufficient fact s to justify the exemp tion from tax und er the terms of t he treaty article. Exam p le. Art icle 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treat y allows an exempt ion from t ax for scholarship income received by a Chinese st udent t emp orarily p resent in the United St at es. Und er U.S. law, this st udent will b ecome a resident alien for tax p urposes if his or her stay in the United St ates exceeds 5 calendar years. However, p aragraph 2 of t he first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the p rovisions of Art icle 20 to cont inue t o ap ply even after the Chinese stud ent becomes a resident alien of the United St ates. A Chinese stud ent who qualifies for this excep tion (under p aragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this excep tion to claim an exemp tion from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a st atement that includes the information described ab ove to support that exempt ion. If you are a nonresid ent alien or a foreign ent ity, give the request er the app ropriat e completed Form W-8 or Form 8233. Bac kup Wit hholding What is b ac k up w it hho ld ing ? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions w ithhold and pay to the IRS 28% of such payments. This is called “ b ackup withholding.” Payments that may be subject t o backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt int erest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transact ions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third part y netw ork t ransactions, and certain p ayments from fishing b oat op erators. Real estat e t ransact ions are not subject to b ackup wit hhold ing. You will not be subject to backup wit hhold ing on p ayments you receive if you give the request er your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxab le interest and d ivid ends on your tax return. Paym ent s yo u rec eive w ill be sub jec t t o bac k up w it hho lding if : 1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester, 2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the Part II instructions on page 3 for details), 3. The IRS t ells the request er that you furnished an incorrect TIN, 4. The IRS t ells you that you are subject t o backup withholding because you d id not report all your interest and dividends on your t ax return (for reportable interest and divid ends only), or 5. You do not certify to the req uester that you are not subject to b ackup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and divid end account s opened aft er 1983 only). Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code on page 3 and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information. Also see Sp ecial rules for partnerships above. What is FATCA r ep or t ing? The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a particip at ing foreign financial institut ion to report all Unit ed States account hold ers that are specified United States persons. Cert ain p ayees are exempt from FATCA rep orting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting cod e on p age 3 and the Inst ruct ions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information. Up dat ing Yo ur Inf o rm at io n You must p rovid e updated information to any p erson to whom you claimed to b e an exempt p ayee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving report ab le payment s in the fut ure from t his person. For example, you may need t o provide up dated information if you are a C corporat ion that elects to b e an S corp oration, or if you no longer are tax exempt . In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account ; for example, if the grant or of a grantor trust dies. Penalt ies Failu re t o f ur nish TIN. If you fail t o furnish your correct TIN t o a requester, you are subject to a p enalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

Enter the owner' s name on line 1. The name of the entity ent ered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be report ed . For example, if a foreign LLC that is t reated as a d isregard ed entit y for U.S. fed eral t ax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner' s name is required t o be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not d isregarded for federal tax purposes. Ent er the d isregard ed entit y' s name on line 2, “ Business name/ disregarded ent ity name.” If the owner of the d isregard ed entity is a foreign p erson, the owner must comp lete an ap propriate Form W-8 inst ead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN.

Although most public company merger transactions generate litigation, BBX Capital and BFC do not want to be in the position of paying or issuing the merger consideration to shareholders of BBX Capital while continuing to be subject to the risk of litigation from such shareholders. Accordingly, BBX Capital’s board of directors and special committee and BFC’s board of directors determined that it was advisable that the merger be subject to the closing condition described below.

 

 

Unless waived by BFC and BBX Capital, it is a condition to closing the merger that, among other things, (i) any litigation or threatened litigation against BFC, BBX Capital or their affiliates relating to the merger shall be resolved to the satisfaction of BFC and BBX Capital or (ii) the holders of at least 2,250,000 shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock shall execute and deliver to BBX Capital this Waiver and Release of Claims. Additional information regarding this closing condition and the other conditions to closing the merger is contained in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus of BBX Capital and BFC relating to the merger.
