     On June 10, 2010, BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors set a subscription price of $1.50 per share for the Company’s previously announced rights offering of up to $25 million of its Class A Common Stock. A copy of the press release, which includes details regarding the rights offering, is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
     Matters discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risk that, because of business, economic or market conditions or for any other reasons within the Company’s discretion, the Company may decide not to pursue the rights offering, the risk that the rights offering may not be consummated on the contemplated terms, or at all, and the risk that issuances of shares may impact the Company’s ability to use its available net operating losses to offset future taxable income.
