Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of BBX Capital Corporation (the “Company”) was held on May 15, 2018. The following proposals were submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders at the Annual Meeting: (i) the election of fourteen directors to the Company’s Board of Directors, each for a term expiring at the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; and (ii) the approval of an amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the BBX Capital Corporation Amended and Restated 2014 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock available for grant under the Plan from 500,000 shares to 800,000 shares and increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock available for grant under the Plan from 9,500,000 shares to 10,700,000 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 10,000,000 shares to 11,500,000 shares. 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 16.9 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 Amendment, 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 Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2018 (the “Proxy Statement”), a vote in favor of the Plan Amendment by a holder of the Company’s Class B Common Stock was deemed to constitute a vote in favor of the Plan Amendment 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 as a result of the Plan Amendment.
At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the election of each of the fourteen director nominees. In addition, the Plan Amendment 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 as a result of the Plan Amendment 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.
