Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 15, 2005, the Board of Directors of Bluegreen Corporation (the "Company"), upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approved a non-employee compensation plan. Each non-employee member of the Board of Directors will receive a $100,000 annual retainer, of which 50% will be payable in restricted stock or stock options granted under the Company's 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), at the election of the director and the remaining 50% will be payable in cash, restricted stock or stock options granted under the Plan, at the election of the director. The number of stock options and restricted stock will be determined by the Company based on assumptions and formulas typically used to value these types of securities. The exercise price of any option will be equal to the closing market price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date of grant. Any option granted will vest immediately upon grant and will have a ten-year term.

The chairperson of the Audit Committee will receive an additional $12,500 annual retainer and members of the Audit Committee will receive an additional $4,000 annual retainer. The Chairpersons of all other committees of the Board of Directors will receive an additional $3,500 annual retainer. In addition to the annual retainer, each non-employee director will be reimbursed any reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors and its committees.
