NAPLES, Fla., Jul 02, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- BOFL | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Bank of Florida Corporation (Nasdaq:BOFL) today provided an update for the second quarter 2009. As part of an on-going initiative to support capital levels, insiders of Bank of Florida and other accredited investors placed an additional $4.1 million in the Company through the issuance of 165 units of convertible preferred stock and warrants at $25,000 per unit. The preferred stock is perpetual and nonvoting, has a liquidation preference of $25,000, and pays a quarterly dividend of $625. Each warrant permits its holder to purchase 720 shares of Bank of Florida common stock at $3.47 per share at any time during the ten year period commencing on June 29, 2009. The warrants are nontransferable. Additional sales and issuances of Units are expected to occur between July 1, 2009 and July 14, 2009.

Also during the second quarter, Bank of Florida implemented several measures designed to improve its profitability and further support capital levels. Staffing, in particular back office functions, was assessed and decreased while, at the same time, revenue generating hires were brought on board. Following a comprehensive review of its other non-interest expenses, the Company temporarily eliminated matching contributions associated with 401(k) retirement plans and put into place policies for reductions in travel and entertainment expenses, as well as in employee health care costs. As a result of these actions, annualized, controllable expenses are expected to be reduced by $4.5 - $5.0 million, slightly offset by increased FDIC insurance and other miscellaneous operating costs.

Results for the second quarter 2009 will be reported on July 21, 2009 before the market opens. An investor conference call is scheduled for 8:30 a.m., EDT, on the same day. Details of conference call dial in numbers will be distributed prior to this date.
