Item 8.01
Other Events.

On October 26, 2009, registrant filed a Current Report on Form 8-K relating to its special dividend to be paid on October 30, 2009, to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2009, and attached a copy of a press release as Exhibit 99.1 to such Current Report.  Due to an inadvertent data entry error in the computer program used to calculate the number of shares to be issued in the dividend and the amount of cash per share to be paid to those shareholders electing to receive cash, the press release contained three minor mistakes.  The press release incorrectly stated that BRT would be issuing 2,437,366 of its common shares in the dividend.  The correct number of common shares that BRT will be issuing in the dividend is 2,437,352.  Additionally, the press release incorrectly stated that BRT would pay a special dividend of $.2317959 per share in cash and $.9182041 per share in stock to those shareholders electing to receive cash.  The correct information is that BRT will pay a special dividend of $.2268042 per share in cash and $.9231958 per share in stock to those shareholders electing to receive cash.
