Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On December 31, 2003, BankAtlantic Bancorp ("Company")consummated the spin-off of its wholly owned subsidiary, Levitt Corporation ("Levitt") by distributing .25 of a share of Levitt Class A Common Stock as a dividend on each outstanding share of BankAtlantic Bancorp Class A Common Stock and .25 of a share of Levitt Class B Common Stock as a dividend on each outstanding share of BankAtlantic Bancorp Class B Common stock. As a result of the spin-off, Levitt is no longer a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company but is held by the shareholders of the Company on the same pro rata basis as they currently hold the Company's shares.
In connection with the spin-off, the Company converted a currently outstanding $30.0 million demand note owed by Levitt to the Company to a five year term note with interest only payable monthly initially at the prime rate and thereafter at the prime rate plus increments of an additional .25% every six months. The Company transferred its 4.9% ownership interest in Bluegreen Corporation to Levitt in exchange for a $5.5 million note and additional shares of Levitt common stock (which additional shares were distributed as part of the spin-off transaction.) This note is due in one year, with principal and interest payable monthly. Additionally, on December 15, 2003 Levitt declared an $8.0 million dividend to the Company payable in the form of a five year note with the same payment terms as the $30.0 million note described above.
