Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 29, 2016, BBX Capital Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the district court’s judgment in favor of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in the action brought by the SEC against the Company and Alan B. Levan, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The reversal terminated the financial penalties assessed against the Company and Mr. Levan and set aside the two year officer and director bar imposed on Mr. Levan. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. The order entered by the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto, will not be final until all motions for rehearing are denied. In addition, the SEC has the right to seek a retrial of the action. It is expected that Mr. Levan will be re-appointed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company when the order becomes final.
