Amendment No. 18 to Schedule 13D

This Amendment No. 18 to Schedule 13D (this Amendment) amends, solely to the extent expressly set forth herein, the Schedule 13D of BFC Financial Corporation (BFC) filed on August 28, 2008, as previously amended (the Schedule 13D), relating to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of BBX Capital Corporation, a Florida corporation (BBX Capital).

Item 3: Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended to add the following:

The information set forth under Item 4 below with respect to the shares of BFCs Class B Common Stock issued in exchange for the shares of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock received by BFC in the share exchanges described in this Amendment is incorporated into this Item 3 by reference.

Item 4: Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended to add the following:

As previously disclosed, BFC entered into Share Exchange Agreements on September 4, 2015 with Alan B. Levan, John E. Abdo, Jarett S. Levan and Seth M. Wise (collectively, the BBX Capital RSU Holders) as holders of restricted stock units (BBX Capital RSUs) of Class A Common Stock of BBX Capital. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreements, (a) each BBX Capital RSU Holder granted BFC the option to acquire, simultaneously with the vesting of each BBX Capital RSU, some or all of the shares of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock which, absent the Share Exchange Agreement, would (after withholding) actually have been received by the BBX Capital RSU Holder upon the vesting of the BBX Capital RSU and (b) BFC agreed to issue to the BBX Capital RSU Holder shares of BFCs Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock having an aggregate market value equal to the aggregate market value of the shares of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock acquired by BFC upon the option exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a result of the previously disclosed Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 27, 2016, entered into by BFC and BBX Capital and the exchange ratio contemplated thereby of 5.4 shares of BFCs Class A Common Stock for each share of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock, each BBX Capital RSU Holder has agreed, with respect to share exchanges effected during the pendency of the proposed merger, to receive no more than 5.4 shares of BFCs Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock for each share of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock subject to vested BBX Capital RSUs.

Between September 30, 2016 and October 4, 2016, BFC issued a total of 1,530,822 shares of its Class B Common Stock to the BBX Capital RSU Holders pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreements and received a total of 283,486 shares of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock in exchange therefor. Because the exchange ratio calculated by dividing the closing price of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock on each relevant date by the closing price of BFCs Class B Common Stock on each such date exceeded 5.4, BFC issued 5.4 shares of its Class B Common Stock for each share of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock received by it between September 30, 2016 and October 4, 2016.

The following table sets forth the number of shares of BFCs Class B Common Stock issued to each BBX Capital RSU Holder between September 30, 2016 and October 4, 2016, the number of shares of BBX Capitals Class A Common Stock which BFC received in exchange therefor, and the date of share exchange.
