Prior to the Bluegreen Merger, the Company owned approximately 93% of Bluegreen’s outstanding common stock. From 1994 until December 2015, Mr. Alan Levan was the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BBX Capital Corporation (formerly BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc.), which merged with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company during December 2016 (the “BBX Merger”).

Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers

Employment Agreements with Alan B. Levan and John E. Abdo

The Company has employment agreements with each of Alan B. Levan and John E. Abdo. Under their employment agreements, Mr. Levan and Mr. Abdo receive an annual base salary and may also receive incentive and discretionary bonuses and equity-based compensation, all as described in further detail above. Each employment agreement may be terminated by the Company for “Cause” or “Without Cause” or by the executive for “Good Reason” (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement). For purposes of the employment agreement, a termination due to, among other things, the “Disability” of Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be deemed a termination “Without Cause.” If an employment agreement is terminated for “Cause,” Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive his base salary through the date of termination. If an employment agreement is terminated “Without Cause” or by Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo for “Good Reason,” Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive his base salary through the date of termination and the prorated portion of his annual bonus based on the average annual bonus paid to him during the prior two fiscal years, subject to a maximum annual bonus for purposes of this calculation in an amount equal to 200% of his then-current annual base salary. In addition, if an employment agreement is terminated “Without Cause” or by Mr. Levan or Abdo for “Good Reason,” Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive a severance payment in an amount equal to two times the sum of his annual base salary and annual bonus opportunity at the date of termination (or 2.99 times the sum of his annual base salary

8


and annual bonus opportunity at the date of termination if such termination occurs within two years after a “Change in Control” (as defined in the employment agreements)). For purposes of calculating the severance payment, each of Mr. Levan and Mr. Abdo’s “annual bonus opportunity” will be subject to the same 200% cap described above. In addition, with respect to each employment agreement, if the employment agreement is terminated “Without Cause” or is terminated by Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo for “Good Reason” or as a result of Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo’s death, any unvested incentive stock options and restricted stock awards would immediately accelerate and fully vest as of the termination date. Further, in the event of a termination “Without Cause” or a termination by Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo for “Good Reason,” Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be entitled to continued benefits, including, without limitation, health and life insurance, for two years following the year in which the termination occurs (or three years following the year in which the termination occurs, if such termination occurred within two years after a “Change in Control”). Each employment agreement will also be terminated upon the executive officer’s death, in which case the estate of Mr. Levan or Mr. Abdo, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive his base salary through the date of his death and the prorated portion of his annual bonus, calculated as described above.

Employment Agreement with Dustin Tonkin.

The Company has an employment agreement with Dustin Tonkin. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Tonkin receives an annual base salary and may also receive incentive and discretionary bonuses and equity-based compensation, all as described in further detail above. In addition, pursuant to his employment agreement entered into upon joining the Company in 2019, Mr. Tonkin received a $1,000,000 signing bonus, which is payable in five equal annual installments of $200,000 each. Under his employment agreement, in addition to his participation in the LTIP, Mr. Tonkin may receive an annual incentive bonus in an amount equal to a specified percentage of his then-current annual base salary. Such percentage is approved annually by the Compensation Committee and, for 2022, Mr. Tonkin’s annual incentive bonus was 135% of his annual base salary. The annual incentive bonus is based on the achievement of targeted performance measures approved by the Compensation Committee, which, for 2022, included primarily system-wide sales of VOIs and adjusted sales operating profit. Based on these performance metrics, Mr. Tonkin received an annual incentive bonus for 2022 of approximately $1,255,000. For 2023, Mr. Tonkin’s targeted annual incentive bonus is 200% of his 2023 annual base salary of $525,000. As described above, in addition to his annual incentive bonus opportunity, Mr. Tonkin also participates in the Company’s LTIP. Information regarding the bonus paid to Mr. Tonkin under the LTIP for 2022 is set forth under “Compensation of the Named Executive Officers” above.

Mr. Tonkin’s employment agreement will continue until terminated. In addition, if the employment agreement is terminated by the Company for “Cause” or by Mr. Tonkin without “Good Reason” (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Tonkin will be entitled to receive any unpaid salary and benefits accrued through the date of termination. If the employment agreement is terminated without “Cause” or by Mr. Tonkin for “Good Reason,” then Mr. Tonkin will be entitled to receive, in addition to any unpaid salary and benefits accrued through the date of termination, a severance payment in an amount equal to the sum of  (a) his annual base salary then in effect and (b) the average annual incentive bonus paid to him during the two years prior to the termination (or 1.5 times such sum if the termination occurs within two years after a “Change in Control” (as defined in the employment agreement)). In addition, if the employment agreement is terminated without “Cause” or by Mr. Tonkin for “Good Reason” after the last day of the performance period with respect to his annual incentive bonus but prior to payment thereof, Mr. Tonkin will be entitled to receive such annual incentive bonus. Further, in the event of a termination without “Cause” or a termination by Mr. Tonkin for “Good Reason” at any time, the Company will pay Mr. Tonkin’s COBRA premiums for 12 months following the date of termination. In addition, upon his death or “Disability” (as defined in his employment agreement), Mr. Tonkin or his estate, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive, in addition to any unpaid salary and benefits accrued through the date of death or termination, the pro rata portion of his annual incentive bonus for the applicable year based generally on the number of days he was employed during the year.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

The Company may be deemed to be controlled by Alan B. Levan, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, John E. Abdo, Vice Chairman of the Company, Jarett S. Levan, a director of the Company and son of Mr. Alan Levan, and Seth M. Wise, a director of the Company. Together, they may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing approximately 81% of the Company’s total voting power. Further, in connection with the spin-off of BBX Capital during September 2020, Mr. Jarett Levan became the Chief Executive Officer and President and a director of BBX Capital, Mr. Alan Levan became the Chairman of the Board of BBX Capital, Mr. John E. Abdo became Vice Chairman of BBX Capital and Seth M. Wise became Executive Vice President and a director of BBX Capital. Mr. Alan Levan, Mr. Abdo, Mr. Jarett Levan and Mr. Wise may also be deemed to control BBX Capital through their ownership of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing a majority of BBX Capital’s total voting power. Mr. Alan Levan and Mr. Abdo also receive compensation from BBX Capital.

The Company reimburses BBX Capital for advisory, risk management, administrative and other services. The Company reimbursed BBX Capital $2.0 million and $1.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for such services. Further, BBX Capital reimbursed the Company $0.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2021, with no such reimbursements during the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company had $0.2 million and $0.1 million in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively, for the services to BBX Capital described above.

During both the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid Abdo Companies, Inc. $153,000, for certain management services. John E. Abdo, the Company’s Vice Chairman, is the principal shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of Abdo Companies, Inc.

In connection with its spin-off of BBX Capital during September 2020, the Company issued a $75.0 million note payable to BBX Capital. The note accrues interest at a rate of 6% per annum and requires payments of interest only on a quarterly basis; provided, however, that interest payments may be deferred at the option of the Company, with interest on the entire outstanding balance thereafter to accrue at a cumulative, compounded rate of 8% per annum until such time as the Company is current on all accrued payments under the note, including deferred interest. All outstanding amounts under the note will become due and payable on September 30, 2025, or earlier upon certain events. In December 2021, the Company made a $25.0 million prepayment of the note reducing the outstanding note balance from $75.0 million to $50.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred interest expense of $3.0 million under the note to BBX.

Director Independence

The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that James R. Allmand, III, Norman H. Becker, Lawrence A. Cirillo, Darwin Dornbush, Joel Levy, Mark A. Nerenhausen, William Nicholson, Arnold Sevell and Orlando Sharpe, who together comprise a majority of the Board, are independent under applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. The Board made such independence determinations based on a review of transactions and relationships between each director or any member of his immediate family, on the one hand, and the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, on the other hand, as well as transactions and relationships between each director or his affiliates, on the one hand, and members of the Company’s senior management or their affiliates, on

13


the other hand. To assist the Board in making its independence determinations, the Board adopted the following categorical standards of relationships that, in the Board’s opinion, do not constitute material relationships that impair a director’s independence: (i) serving on third party boards of directors with other members of the Board; (ii) payments or charitable gifts by the Company to entities with which a director is an executive officer or employee where such payments do not exceed the greater of $1 million annually or 2% of such entity’s consolidated gross revenues for the applicable year; and (iii) investments by directors in common with each other or the Company. Accordingly, service on the Board of Directors of BBX Capital does not, in and of itself, constitute a material relationship that would impair director independence. As previously described, independent director Becker serves on BBX Capital’s Board of Directors. The Board also determined that the provision of certain real estate-related services by entities affiliated with independent director Sharpe to BBX Capital in 2021 and 2022 and to Nova Southeastern University (of which Alan B. Levan serves as a Trustee the Chairman of its Finance Committee) in 2021 did not constitute a material relationship that impaired his independence.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) served as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for 2022 and 2021. The following table presents fees for professional services rendered by EY for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for 2022 and 2021.

(3)Includes fees for professional services for tax consulting and tax advisory services.

(4)Includes fees for other permissible work performed that does not meet the above-described categories.

All audit-related services set forth above were pre-approved by the Company’s Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such services by EY was compatible with the maintenance of such firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.

Under its charter, the Company’s Audit Committee must review and pre-approve both audit and permitted non-audit services provided by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and shall not engage the independent registered public accounting firm to perform any non-audit services prohibited by law or regulation. Each year, the independent registered public accounting firm’s retention to audit the Company’s financial statements, including the associated fee, is approved by the Audit Committee. Under its current practices, the Audit Committee does not regularly evaluate potential engagements of the independent registered public accounting firm and approve or reject such potential engagements. At each Audit Committee meeting, the Audit Committee receives updates on the services actually provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, and management may present additional services for pre-approval. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Chairman of the Audit Committee the authority to evaluate and approve engagements on behalf of the Audit Committee in the event that a need arises for pre-approval between regular Audit Committee meetings. If the Chairman so approves any such engagements, he will report that approval to the full Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting.
