On March 4, 2019,  BBX Capital Corporation (“BBX Capital”) issued a press release announcing that it intends to take Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (NYSE: BXG) (“Bluegreen”) private through a statutory short-form merger under Florida law. Pursuant to the merger, each share of Bluegreen’s common stock outstanding at the effective time of the merger, other than shares beneficially owned by BBX Capital and shareholders who duly exercise and perfect appraisal rights in accordance with Florida law, would be converted into the right to receive $16 per share in cash. 



It is expected that the merger will be effected 30 days after the Schedule 13E-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the merger is first mailed to Bluegreen’s shareholders, or as soon as practicable thereafter. However, the merger may be terminated at any time before it becomes effective. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
