Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
The information relating to the BBX Capital Corporation 2014 Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated, set forth under, or incorporated by reference into, Item 5.07 below is incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of BBX Capital Corporation (the “Company”) was held on May 16, 2017. The following proposals were submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders at the Annual Meeting: (i) the election of fifteen directors to the Company’s Board of Directors, each for a term expiring at the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; and (ii) the approval of the BBX Capital Corporation 2014 Incentive Plan, as proposed to be amended and restated (the “Plan”). As described in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2017 (the “Proxy Statement”), the proposed amendments to the Plan included amendments which would (a) increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock available for grant under the Plan from 8,500,000 shares to 9,500,000 shares, resulting in an increase in the total number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock available for grant under the Plan from 9,000,000 shares to 10,000,000 shares, (b) allow for the grant of performance-based cash awards in addition to stock-based awards under the Plan, (c) add book value to the list of permitted performance-based goals under the Plan, and (d) set the maximum amount of performance-based awards that can be paid under the Incentive Plan to any one “Covered Employee” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code in any one calendar year at $12,000,000. Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock were entitled to one vote per share and 18.18 votes per share, respectively, on each matter presented at the Annual Meeting. With respect to the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting by the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as one class was required for a director nominee to be elected. With respect to the proposal to approve the Plan, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal by the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as one class and, in addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, was required for approval. As described in the Proxy Statement, a vote in favor of the Plan by a holder of the Company’s Class B Common Stock was deemed to constitute a vote in favor of the Plan and a vote in favor of the approval required by the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the issuance of the additional shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock pursuant to options and restricted stock awards which may be granted under the Plan. At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the election of each of the fifteen director nominees. In addition, the Plan and the issuance of the additional shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock pursuant to options and restricted stock awards which may be granted under the Plan were approved by the Company’s shareholders. A summary of the voting results, as certified by the Inspector of Election for the Annual Meeting, Georgeson LLC., is set forth below.
