Item 3.01		Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

     As previously disclosed, on May 20, 2008, BFC Financial Corporation (the “Company”) was notified by NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “NYSE Arca”) that the Company did not have a market value of publicly held shares in excess of $15 million or an average closing price per share of its Class A Common Stock in excess of $1.00 for a consecutive 30 trading-day period, as required for continued listing. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the NYSE Arca, the Company was granted a six-month cure period to regain compliance with these continued listing requirements. Because compliance was not achieved within this six-month cure period, on December 1, 2008, the Company was notified by the NYSE Arca that its Class A Common Stock will be suspended from trading on the NYSE Arca prior to the opening of the market on Tuesday, December 9, 2008. The Company anticipates that its Class A Common Stock will be quoted on the OTC’s Pink Sheet Electronic Quotation Service as soon as the NYSE Arca suspends trading.
