may request to give effect to the sale, transfer and assignment of the
Receivables and the other provisions of this Agreement.
ARTICLE III
Administration and Servicing of Receivables
SECTION 3.01 Duties of Seller as Servicer. From and after the Closing
Date, the Seller, as servicer shall administer the Receivables with reasonable
care and in compliance with all applicable laws, using that degree of skill and
attention that a prudent servicer would exercise with respect to comparable
receivables that it services for itself and others. Seller's duties as servicer
shall include posting of all payments, responding to inquiries by federal,
state, or local governmental authorities regarding the Receivables,
investigating delinquencies, sending monthly statements to Obligors, responding
29
30
to inquiries by Obligors with respect to the Receivables, reporting tax
information and complying with all other requirements under applicable law and
its customary practices. Seller, as servicer, shall follow the same standards,
policies, and procedures in performing its duties as servicer as it follows with
respect to comparable receivables that it services for itself and others and as
specifically outlined in the Credit and Collection Policies. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing Seller, as servicer, shall be authorized and
empowered by Purchaser to execute and deliver, on behalf of Purchaser, any and
all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the
Receivables or the Financed Property upon appropriate payment in full of the
related Receivable and satisfaction of all obligations of the Obligor to
Purchaser thereunder.
SECTION 3.02 Collection of Receivables Payments. Seller and Purchaser
shall cause the Custodian to be the sole recipient of all payments on the
Receivables pursuant to the terms of the Agency Agreement. The Seller shall make
reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and
provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due, and shall
follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to comparable
receivables that it services for itself and others and as specifically outlined
in the Credit and Collection Policies. Seller may not waive any late payment
charge or any other fee that may be due in the ordinary course of servicing a
Receivable except as expressly provided in the Credit and Collection Policies.
Seller will at no time be more lenient or less careful in its application of
standards, policies and procedures with respect to servicing the Receivables
than it is with respect to comparable receivables that it services for itself
and others and will act in a manner so as to enhance the collectability of the
Receivables. The Seller will not modify or waive any provision of the Credit and
Collection Policies without prior written notice to and the written consent of
Purchaser. In the event that Seller shall receive any such payments, Seller
agrees to deposit daily to the Lockbox Account (as defined in the Agency
Agreement), in the form received and with all necessary endorsements, all
payments by or on behalf of Obligors on the Receivables, as collected during the
Collection Period, and the funds therein shall be held as provided in the Agency
Agreement pending payment to Purchaser as provided therein. Seller shall further
take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser to assure that any
payments on the Receivables which may be received by third parties shall be
deposited in the Lockbox Account or as otherwise specified by Purchaser. Seller
shall provide prompt notice to Purchaser of any payments on the Receivables
known to Seller which are not paid initially to the Lockbox Account. In
addition, if requested by Purchaser, Seller, as servicer, shall cause notice to
be given promptly to the
30
31
Obligors of the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to Purchaser in
a manner acceptable to Purchaser. In addition to the notification required
pursuant to Section 2.09(a), Seller shall, upon request of Purchaser, take such
further action as may be necessary after such initial notice to the Obligors to
assure that all payments under the Receivables continue to be paid directly by
the Obligors to the Lockbox (as defined in the Agency Agreement) maintained by
the Custodian for the benefit of Purchaser under the Agency Agreement.
SECTION 3.03 Realization Upon Receivables. On behalf of Purchaser and
if requested by Purchaser, the Seller, as servicer, shall use its best efforts,
consistent with prudent servicing procedures and as specifically outlined in the
Credit and Collection Policies, to foreclose or otherwise recover and convert
the ownership of the Financed Property securing any Receivable which constitutes
a Defaulted Receivable and which has not been repurchased by Seller. In the
enforcement or collection of the Receivables, as provided above in this Section
3.03, the Seller, as servicer, shall be entitled to xxx thereon in its own name
if possible, or if, but only if, Purchaser provides its express prior written
consent, as agent of Purchaser. In no event shall the Seller be entitled to take
any action which would make Purchaser a party to any litigation without
Purchaser's express prior written consent. Purchaser shall have no obligation to
Seller to take any action or commence any proceedings to realize upon any
Receivable or to enforce any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto.
SECTION 3.04 Operation and Maintenance of Timeshare Project. (a) The
operation and management of the Timeshare Project has been delegated by the
owners associations responsible therefor, as of the date of this Agreement, to
the Seller or in the case of the Brigantine Inn Timeshare Project to Brigantine
Inn Management, Inc. a Subsidiary of Seller, and in the case of the Brigantine
Inn Villas Timeshare Project to Brigantine Preferred Properties, Inc., a
Subsidiary of Seller pursuant to the management agreements referred to in
Section 2.02(c)(xi) hereof. The Seller agrees that neither it nor Brigantine Inn
Management, Inc. nor Brigantine Preferred Properties, Inc. shall resign as
manager of the Timeshare Project or the Brigantine Inn or Brigantine Inn Villas
Timeshare Projects and shall use its best efforts to remain as such manager
until the termination of this Agreement, and shall at all times exercise that
degree of skill and attention that a good manager would exercise with respect to
comparable projects that it manages for itself or others and in a manner that
will cause the image and quality of the Timeshare Project to be maintained at a
level not less than that existing on the date of this Agreement.
(b) Without limiting the foregoing, and whether or not the
Seller is acting as manager for the Timeshare Project, if Seller
31
32
shall determine that an owners association has allowed the liability coverage or
the physical damage insurance covering any Financed Property in the Timeshare
Project to lapse or has not obtained adequate insurance coverage, Seller shall
cause such association to obtain such insurance or shall obtain insurance at its
own expense sufficient to insure Purchaser against liability claims in at least
such amounts as exist on the date of this Agreement and to insure Purchaser's
interest in the Financed Property. Adequate insurance coverage shall mean
casualty and physical damage insurance as described above and extended coverage
in an amount sufficient to permit rebuilding of the Timeshare Project to at
least its condition on the date of this Agreement or, if the Timeshare Project
is not rebuilt, to result in payment to Purchaser as mortgagee of an amount not
less than the Principal Balance, Accrued Interest and other amounts owing on the
Receivables arising out of the Timeshare Project. Seller shall provide Purchaser
with evidence that adequate insurance coverage is in force with standard
mortgagee clauses in favor of Purchaser or naming Purchaser as additional
insured, as appropriate, annually during the term of this Agreement.
(c) Seller shall cause to be paid when due all Taxes which create or
could give rise to a Lien on the Financed Property in the Timeshare Project that
is prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien granted by the related
Receivable. Seller's present policy is to purchase lien rights of owners
associations with respect to deficient assessments against interests in the
Timeshare Project or to loan or advance funds to the respective owners
association if required in order to maintain adequate funding for the operation
and maintenance of the Timeshare Project, and Seller agrees that during the term
of this Agreement to continue to purchase such rights or to make such loans or
advances in an amount sufficient to permit such associations to operate and
maintain the Timeshare Project as contemplated in this Section and to pay all
applicable Taxes. Seller, for itself and all of its affiliates, agrees that all
lien rights acquired as a result of any such purchase or loan or advance are
expressly subordinate and subject to the lien and security interest of Purchaser
in the related Financed Property. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that
the proceeds of any single interest insurance or similar insurance or indemnity
with respect to any of the Receivables, if any, are conveyed to Purchaser
pursuant to Section 2.01 and Seller shall take or cause to be taken all action
necessary to preserve rights thereunder. If Seller determines that liability
insurance or physical damage insurance has lapsed with respect to any Financed
Property in the Timeshare Project or that the coverage is not adequate, Seller
will notify Purchaser of such determination. Seller shall cause any physical
damage insurance maintained on the Financed Property in the Timeshare Project
and other insurance maintained with respect to any Receivable to provide that
the loss payable thereunder shall be payable to Purchaser as its interest may
appear and that
32
33
Purchaser is named as additional insured with respect to liability insurance.
(d) Seller for itself and all Subsidiaries managing a Timeshare Project
covenants and agrees that Seller will and will cause all Subsidiaries to use its
and their best efforts to remain in management of each project comprising the
Timeshare Project and further covenants and agrees that neither it nor any
Subsidiary shall voluntarily resign from its position as manager for each resort
comprising the Timeshare Project where it is so acting on the Closing Date. If
Seller or any of its Subsidiaries resigns from the management of a resort
comprising a Timeshare Project without the consent of Purchaser, Purchaser may,
at its discretion and option, deem all Receivables from the resort from which
Seller or its Subsidiary has resigned as Defaulted Receivables as of the next
Record Date.
SECTION 3.05 Maintenance of Liens in Financed Property. Seller shall
take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the lien created by
each Receivable in the respective Financed Property. Purchaser hereby
authorizes, and the Seller hereby agrees, to take such steps as are necessary to
preserve and protect such lien on behalf of Purchaser.
SECTION 3.06 Covenants of Seller as Servicer. Seller, as servicer,
hereby makes the following covenants on which Purchaser will rely in purchasing
the Receivables:
(a) Security Interest to Remain in Force. The Financed Property
securing each Receivable shall not be released from the lien granted by the
Receivable in whole or in part, except as contemplated in Section 3.01 and
except that Seller, as servicer, may permit the release of the Financed Property
securing any Receivable as part of a transaction where the related Obligor is
entering into an upgrading or downgrading contract for the purchase of other
property owned by Seller provided that (i) the Receivable to which such Financed
Property relates shall be repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 4.02 by
Seller as a Defaulted Receivable on the Report Date next following the month in
which such transaction is consummated and (ii) no Event of Transfer, or event or
condition which would notice or lapse of time, or both, could become such an
Event of Transfer shall have occurred and be existing on the date such
transaction is made.
(b) No Impairment. The Seller, as servicer, shall observe and perform,
or cause to be observed or performed, all contractual undertakings and legal
obligations to the Obligor under each Receivable, and shall not permit any
subordination or rescission of any Receivable or other impairment of the rights
of Purchaser in the Receivables in any other way, and shall take all action
necessary to secure all available rights of recourse, if any, with respect to
the Receivables against other third parties;
33
34
(c) Amendments. The Seller, as servicer, shall not increase the number
of payments under a Receivable, nor increase the Amount Financed under a
Receivable, nor agree to any decrease in the Amount Financed or reduction in the
amount of any payments under a Receivable, nor grant or permit, except as
permitted pursuant to Section 3.06(a), any modification or adjustment with
respect to any Receivable; and
(d) Performance. The Seller, as servicer, shall observe and perform all
of its obligations and duties as servicer under this Agreement in conformity
with applicable law and the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
SECTION 3.07 Replacement Upon Breach. Seller and Purchaser, as the case
may be, shall inform the other party promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of
any breach by the Seller, as servicer, of its obligations under Section 3.06.
Unless the breach shall have been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of
Purchaser by the second Record Date following such discovery, Seller shall
replace pursuant to Section 4.02, any Receivable affected by such breach, as of
such Record Date, without recourse to or warranty by Purchaser.
SECTION 3.08 Servicing Expenses. The Seller shall be liable for all
expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder, including
taxes imposed, expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to
Purchaser and expenses incurred for the account of the Obligor in connection
with realizing upon Receivables as provided under Section 3.03. Seller shall pay
all fees and charges of the Custodian in connection with the Custodial Agreement
and the Agency Agreement and of the Trustee under the Trust Agreements. Seller,
as servicer, shall not be entitled to receive any compensation for its services
hereunder or otherwise retain any receipts or payments (from whatever source) on
the Receivables.
SECTION 3.09 Seller Certificate. On or before the Distribution Date in
each calendar month, Seller, as servicer, shall deliver to Purchaser a
certificate in form acceptable to Purchaser, certified as true and correct by
the President or any Vice President of the Seller containing information with
respect to the last Collection Period and all information necessary to make the
distributions under Article IV. Seller, as servicer, also shall specify in such
certificate (a) those Receivables which constitute Defaulted Receivables as of
the Record Date for such Collection Period and with each such certificate
delivered, those Receivables in respect of which the Seller, as servicer, has
knowledge that the Obligors have failed to pay applicable assessments or Taxes
when due; it being understood that the Seller shall not be required to undertake
title searches in this respect and (b) those Receivables which are to be
purchased or replaced by Seller as of the Record Date, pursuant to Section
34
35
2.04, 2.O5 and 3.07. Upon request by Purchaser, Seller shall promptly provide to
Purchaser such further information pertinent to the Receivables or this
Agreement as Purchaser may reasonably request.
SECTION 3.10 Monthly Statement as to Compliance. The Seller shall
deliver to Purchaser, on or before the Report Date a certificate signed by the
President or any Vice President of Seller stating that (a) a review of the
activities of the Seller, as servicer, during the preceding calendar month and

review, the Seller has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement
throughout such month, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any
such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the
nature and status thereof.
ARTICLE IV
Distributions, Replacements and Reassignments
Section 4.01 Distributions. On the Distribution Date (or in the case of
Section 4.01(e) not later than the Report Date) with respect to each Record
Date, the following distributions shall be made:

equal to all Collected Interest together with all Collected Principal received
by Agent during the preceding Collection Period.
(b) By the Seller to Purchaser, an amount equal to the Repurchase

(f) By Seller to Purchaser, an amount with respect to such Record Date

which shall be deposited in the Reserve Account pursuant to Section 5.04.
(g) By Seller to Purchaser, an amount equal to the amount payable to
Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.03, if applicable.
SECTION 4.02 Replacement of Receivables. (a) In lieu of repurchasing
Receivables pursuant to Section 3.06(a), 3.07, 2.04 and 2.05, and payment of the
related Repurchase Amount pursuant to Section 3.06 (a), 4.01(b), (c) and (d),
Seller may propose to transfer, assign and otherwise convey Replacement
Receivables to Purchaser as of the respective Record Date, in replacement for
Receivables otherwise required to be so repurchased. Purchaser shall not be
obligated to accept such proposal and may accept some or all of the proposed
Replacement Receivables. If Purchaser does not accept such proposal, or accepts
such proposal in part, Seller shall propose to transfer, assign and otherwise
convey additional Replacement Receivables to Purchaser as of the respective
Record Date, in replacement for Receivables otherwise required to be so
repurchased. Purchaser shall not be obligated to accept such additional proposal
and may accept some or all of the proposed Replacement Receivables.
If Purchaser does not accept after the additional offer of Replacement
Receivables, or accepts such proposal in part, the Seller shall repurchase for
cash all such Receivables not so replaced pursuant to Section 3.06(a) 3.07, 2.04
or 2.05, as the case may be. For purposes of determining the amount of the
payment, if any, to be made in respect of the repurchase of Receivables, Seller
shall receive a credit against the Repurchase Amount for Replacement Receivables
so assigned in an amount equal to the Principal Balance of the Replacement
Receivable as of such Record Date.
(b) Each request for replacement of Receivables pursuant to this
Section 4.O2 shall be made by Seller no later than the applicable Report Date
and shall be effected by a Replacement Request. If the Purchaser fails to notify
Seller of its acceptance, in whole or in part, of such offer to replace
Receivables prior to such Distribution Date, the Seller shall repurchase all
such receivables to be repurchased on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
3.06 (a), 3.07, 2.04 or
36
37
2.05, as the case may be. Such replacement shall be consummated by the execution
and delivery of the documentation described in Section 2.02(c)(iv) and (v), and
such other documents and completion of such other matters as the Purchaser may
reasonably request. To the extent that the Principal Balance as of such Record
Date of the Replacement Receivables to be assigned on any Distribution Date
exceeds the Principal Balance of the Receivables so replaced, as of such Record
Date, such excess shall be applied, upon request of the Seller, in replacement,
in whole or in part, for other Receivables pursuant to this Section 4.02 on
succeeding Distribution Dates.
SECTION 4.03 Manner of Payment: Net Distributions. All distributions to
be made to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be made by wire transfer

Section 3.09, Seller, as servicer, shall make a computation of the remittances
to be made pursuant to Section 4.01 above, and the remittances shall be made, on
a net basis, provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to
make any distribution to the Seller if any Event of Transfer, or any event or
condition which with notice or lapse of time, or both, could become an Event of
Transfer shall have occurred and is continuing. Nonetheless, Seller, as
servicer, shall account for all of the above described amounts as if such
amounts were deposited and distributed separately. In addition to the deposits
and distributions to be made pursuant to Section 4.01, the Purchaser shall make
those deposits to and charges against the Reserve Account provided for in
Article V.
SECTION 4.04 Reassignments. Upon repurchase or replacement of a
Receivable, the Purchaser shall execute and deliver, without recourse or
warranty (except that its signatures are genuine or authorized and against its
actions that impair its good title to the instruments), any documents reasonably
requested by the Seller from time to time evidencing or confirming the
reassignment of the repurchased or replaced Receivable and the related Financed
Property and the release of such repurchased or replaced Receivable from any
UCC-1 financing statement filed in connection with the assignment of such
Receivable to Purchaser so long as (i) the form of the proposed document is
prepared at the expense of Seller and furnished to Purchaser, (ii) the form and
substance of the proposed document are satisfactory to Purchaser and its
counsel, and (iii) Purchaser and its counsel are afforded a reasonable time to
review and process the proposed document, which amount of time shall not in any
event be less than ten days.
ARTICLE V
Reserve Account
37
38
SECTION 5.01 Establishment of Reserve Account. On or prior to the
Closing Date, Seller will establish by pledge and delivery to Custodian, cash
and/or Receivables acceptable to Purchaser in its sole discretion, in an amount
sufficient to equal the Minimum Reserve Account Amount. Such cash and/or
Receivables shall be placed in a custodial reserve account (referred to as the
"Reserve Account") for the benefit of Purchaser who shall have a security
interest in such Reserve Account. Such Reserve Account shall be established for
the benefit of Purchaser and shall be for the sole use of Purchaser until such
time as Purchaser shall have recovered and been repaid the purchase price, its
yield of 9.00% on the unreimbursed portion of the purchase price outstanding
from time to time from the Pool at the Initial Closing Date, such yield on the
unreimbursed portion of the purchase price outstanding from time to time from
the Pool at the Subsequent Closing Date as is agreed to between Purchaser and
Seller after Purchaser has had an opportunity to conduct due diligence on the
Pool offered and after Purchaser has obtained the necessary approvals for such
purchase, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with this
transaction and all sums due from Seller to Purchaser pursuant to a Purchase
Agreement of December 31, 1992 between The Oxford Finance Companies, Inc. and
Purchaser, a Purchase and Servicing Agreement of July 6, 1994 between Purchaser
and Seller or a Purchase and Servicing Agreement of August 31, 1995 between
Purchaser and Seller. Seller hereby grants to Purchaser a first priority lien on
and security interest in, as collateral security for the payment and performance
of the obligations of the Seller and the Custodian under the terms of this
Agreement, the Custodial Agreement and the Agency Agreement, the Reserve
Account, the cash and/or Receivables placed therein from time to time and any
investments thereof and proceeds of such investments. Purchaser may at any time
and from time to time, without notice to Seller (any requirement for such notice
being expressly waived by Seller) set off and apply against any and all of the
obligations of Seller hereafter existing under this Agreement, the Custodial
Agreement or the Agency Agreement any and all monies held in the Reserve Account
and all investments thereof and proceeds of such investments and any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time
held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Purchaser to or for the credit
or the account of Seller and any property of Seller from time to time in
possession of Purchaser, irrespective of whether or not Purchaser shall have
made any demand hereunder and although such obligations may be contingent and
matured. The rights of Purchaser under this Section 5.01 are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of set off) which Purchaser
may have.
38
39
In order to deposit Receivables into the Reserve Account, Seller shall
execute a collateral assignment to Purchaser of such Receivables, together with
any necessary appropriately recorded collateral assignment of deeds of trust or
mortgages, and together with an appropriate UCC-1 filing, so as to perfect
Purchaser's security interest in such Receivables.
In determining the Reserve Account Balance at any time, Seller shall
receive credit for the aggregate Principal Balance of all Receivables
collaterally assigned to Purchaser which are not Defaulted Receivables at such
time. Provided the Reserve Account Balance is at least equal to the Minimum
Reserve Account Amount, Seller may remove Defaulted Receivables from the Reserve
Account without payment or substitution therefor.
Seller may at any time remove from the Reserve Account any Receivable
or Receivables which are not Defaulted Receivables and substitute therefor (a)
cash in the amount of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Receivable or
Receivables being removed from the Reserve Account or (b) a Receivable or
Receivables with an aggregate principal balance at least equal to the aggregate
principal balance of the Receivable or Receivables being removed from the
Reserve Account, which substitute Receivable or Receivables shall be acceptable
to Purchaser.
At such time as the Seller is permitted under this Agreement to remove
any Receivables from the Reserve Account, Purchaser shall promptly reassign such
Receivables to Seller and execute any necessary recordable assignments of deeds
of trust or mortgages and execute any UCC releases as are necessary to transfer
such Receivables back to Seller free and clear of Purchaser's security interest
therein. Seller shall also advise the Custodian and Agent under the Custodial
Agreement and Agency Agreement of such reassignment.
SECTION 5.02 Charges Against Reserve Account. If, on any Distribution
Date, Seller, Custodian or Agent shall fail to make any distribution, in whole
or in part, required to be made to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.01(b), (c) or
(d) or Seller shall fail to replace Receivables as provided in Section 4.02, or
the Pool shall fail to equal the unreimbursed purchase price as of the preceding
Record Date, Purchaser shall charge against the Reserve Account as of the
preceding Record Date and withdraw from the Reserve Account any cash and/or
Receivables having a Principal Balance equal to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase
Amount of the affected Receivables for the preceding Collection Period or such
amount of Receivables necessary for Purchaser to have in its constructive
possession and control through Custodian a Pool equalling the unreimbursed
purchase price. Such Receivables withdrawn from the Reserve Account shall become
the property of Purchaser. So long as the Minimum Reserve Account Amount is
maintained by Seller, Seller may request and
39
40
receive from Purchaser and from the Reserve Account any Defaulted Receivable.
SECTION 5.03 Other Charges Against the Reserve Account. As of each
Record Date, if an Obligor or an Obligor's representative or successor
successfully shall assert a claim (including the avoidance of a preferential
transfer under bankruptcy law) that results in a liability of Purchaser to such
Obligor, Seller shall, on each Distribution Date, pay to Purchaser an amount
equal to any loss incurred by Purchaser as of the Record Date due to such claim
pursuant to Section 4.01(g). Seller shall pursue reasonable remedies against any
necessary or proper parties, as appropriate, to recover the amount of any loss
to Purchaser caused by such claim. Nothing in this Section 5.03 shall limit or
impair any right of Purchaser to indemnification under this Agreement in
connection with any such loss.
SECTION 5.04 Other Deposits To and Charges Against Reserve Account. On
each Distribution Date, if payments of Collected Interest made to the Purchaser
for a Collection Period with respect to the Receivables exceed or are less than
an amount equal to the per annum yield specified in Section 5.01 computed, from
time to time, on the Pool as reduced by payments received during such Collection
Period by the Purchaser, then an amount equal to such excess shall be deposited
by Purchaser into, and the amount of any such deficiency shall be paid by Seller
to the Reserve Account, as the case may be. In addition, Seller shall pay the
additional amounts for deposit to the Reserve Account provided for in Section
4.01 (f), if any, and such amounts, together with any amounts paid by Guarantor
pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement shall be deposited by Purchaser into the
Reserve Account.
SECTION 5.05 Minimum Reserve Account Amount. As of each Record Date,
the Reserve Account Balance shall equal the Minimum Reserve Account Amount.
Seller shall deposit with Purchaser or with Custodian such additional
Receivables, acceptable to Purchaser in its sole discretion, valued at the then
present Principal Balance, as are necessary on or before each Record Date to
insure that at all times Seller shall maintain in the Reserve Account the
Minimum Reserve Account Amount but if any such Receivable is rejected by
Purchaser, Purchaser shall have the right to substitute cash in lieu thereof.
Purchaser shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to require
Seller to provide either a different type of replacement (land sale or
timeshare) contract or to make a cash payment or deposit to insure that the
Minimum Reserve Account Amount is in effect on each Record Date.
40
41
SECTION 5.06 Termination of Reserve Account. If, after payment in full
of all of the Receivables sold to Purchaser by Seller and after satisfaction of
all obligations of the Seller (whether as Seller or as servicer) hereunder, any
monies or Receivables shall remain in the Reserve Account, Purchaser shall remit
any remaining balance of monies to Seller and assign any remaining Receivables
to Seller.
ARTICLE VI

SECTION 6.01 Representations of Seller and of Seller as Servicer.
Seller for itself and as servicer make the following representations on which
Purchaser shall rely in purchasing the Receivables (or, except as noted in any
Replacement Request in accepting any assignment of Replacement Receivables

or the conduct of its business, including the undertakings under this Agreement,
shall require such qualifications, licenses or approvals.
41
42

assigned to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and shall further obliterate
any such notations indicating any transfer, assignment, pledge or interest of
any other Person therein.

Seller shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of
sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to Purchaser, Seller's and the
master computer records (including archives) of Seller and Seller as servicer
that shall refer to a Receivable indicate clearly that such Receivable is owned
by Purchaser. Indication of Purchaser's ownership of a Receivable shall be

or
47
48
similar commitment on behalf of any Affiliate or subsidiary of Guarantor;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to impose any
limitation on (i) the payment of dividends or (ii) the making of any loan,
advance or extension of credit to any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Seller;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Seller nor
any of its Subsidiaries shall make any such loan, advance or extension of

to appear in, prosecute, or defend any legal action that shall be unrelated to
its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in
any expense or liability, provided, however, that Seller may, with the express

except upon determination that the performance of its duties shall no longer be

effect delivered to Purchaser. No such resignation shall become effective until
Purchaser or a successor servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and
obligations of the servicer in accordance with Section 7.02, unless otherwise
required by a binding order of any court, or governmental or administrative
entity.
ARTICLE VII
Transfer of Servicing
48
49
SECTION 7.01 Events of Transfer. If any one of the following events or
conditions shall occur and be continuing:
(a) Any failure by Seller to deliver or pay when due to Purchaser any
proceeds or payment required to be so delivered or paid under the terms of this
Agreement or to deliver any certificate required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 3.09, if such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of three
Business Days after written notice of such failure is given to Seller by
Purchaser; or
(b) Failure on the part of the Seller to duly observe or to perform in
any material respect any other covenants or agreements set forth in this
Agreement or in the Custodial Agreement or Agency Agreement, which failure shall
continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written
notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given
to Seller by Purchaser; or
(c) Any material representation made by Seller in Section 6.01 shall
prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;
then, and in each and every case, Purchaser, by notice in writing to Seller may
(i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of Seller as servicer under this
Agreement or (ii) defer the rights of Seller to receive any distribution
pursuant to Section 4.01(e) until termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 8.01, or (iii) any one or more of the foregoing. On or after the receipt
by the Seller as servicer of such written notice of termination, all authority
and power of the Seller as servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect
to the Receivables or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in Purchaser
pursuant to this Section 7.01; and, without limitation, Purchaser shall be
hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of Seller as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and
to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect
the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and
endorsement of the Custodian Receivable Files or the Servicer Receivable Files,
or otherwise. Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in effecting the
termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Seller as servicer under
this Agreement, including the transfer to Purchaser for administration by it of
all monies and cash that shall at the time be held for deposit or shall
thereafter be received with respect to a Receivable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Seller at its own expense will deliver, and if
requested by Purchaser, will cause the Custodian to deliver, upon such
termination, to Purchaser all of the Custodian Receivable Files and Servicer
Receivable Files and such other memorialized data, documents and records related
thereto (including without limitation true copies
49
50
of any microfilms, computer tapes and data and computer memories and any
documentary evidence of title to any Financed Property or other documentary
evidence as is required to perfect a lien and security interest in such Financed
Property) as Purchaser may reasonably deem necessary to enable it to enforce its
rights thereunder and to protect its position as owner thereof and to administer
the Receivables as successor servicer. After any such termination and delivery,
neither Seller nor the Custodian if requested by Purchaser will hold or retain
any executed counterpart or other copy of any Receivable or related material
without clearly marking the same to indicate conspicuously that the same is not
the original and that transfer thereof does not transfer any rights against the
related Obligor or any other Person.
SECTION 7.02. Purchaser to Act; Appointment of Successor. Upon Seller
as servicer's, receipt of notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01 or
resignation pursuant to Section 6.06, Purchaser shall be successor in all
respects to the Seller as servicer under this Agreement, and shall succeed to
all the rights, responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed
on Seller as servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. As
compensation therefor, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from the proceeds
of the Receivables notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.03 or any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary all costs and expenses of any kind
incurred directly or with others in connection therewith, which shall include
customary profit and overhead allocation if incurred directly by Purchaser.
Purchaser shall provide Seller with a statement thereof, which shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. However, receipt of such proceeds by Purchaser
shall not affect the right of Purchaser to receive or recover damages sustained
by reason of any breach of this Agreement by Seller or any payment which may
then be due under the terms of this Agreement to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the
above, Purchaser may appoint any Person as the successor to Seller as servicer
under this Agreement. In connection with such appointment, Purchaser may make
such arrangements for the reasonable compensation and payment of such successor
out of payments on Receivables or otherwise as it and such successor shall
agree. Purchaser and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this
Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
50
51
SECTION 7.03 Waiver of Past Defaults. Purchaser may waive any default
by Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.
Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and
any Event of Transfer arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied
for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the
extent expressly so waived. No course of dealing on the part of Purchaser, nor
any delay or failure on the part of Purchaser in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege
or otherwise prejudice Purchaser's rights and remedies hereunder; nor shall any
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No right or remedy conferred
upon or reserved to Purchaser under this Agreement is intended to be exclusive
of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and
in addition to every other right or remedy granted thereunder or now or
hereafter existing under any applicable law.
ARTICLE VIII
Termination
SECTION 8.01 Termination. This Agreement and the respective rights and
obligations of Seller and Purchaser shall terminate, except for the indemnities
under Section 6.02 and the representations and warranties under Sections 2.03

of the Receivables in accordance with their terms and the satisfaction of all
obligations of Seller to Purchaser hereunder and under a Purchase Agreement of
December 31, 1992 between The Oxford Finance Company and Purchaser, a Purchase
and Servicing Agreement of July 6, 1994 between Purchaser and Seller or a
