(c) [Reserved] .
(d) No
Assumption. The
sales and purchases of Pool Assets do not constitute and are not intended to
result in a creation or an assumption by the Issuer or its successors and
assigns of any obligation of any Seller, the Depositor or any other Person in
connection with the Pool Assets (other than such obligations as may arise from
the ownership of the Pool Assets) or under the related Series 2002-1 Pool Loans
or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, including without
limitation any obligation to any Obligors. None of the Issuer or the Issuer’s
assignees shall have any obligation or liability to any Obligor or other
customer or client of any Seller (including without limitation any obligation to
perform any of the obligations of any Seller under any Loan or related Timeshare
Property or any other agreement or any obligation of any Seller), except such
obligations as may arise from the ownership of the Pool Assets.
(e) No
Recourse. Except
as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and Purchase of the Pool
Assets under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Depositor;
provided, however, that the Depositor shall be liable to the Issuer and its
successors and assigns for all representations, warranties, covenants and
indemnities made by it pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (it being
understood that such obligations of the Depositor will not arise solely on
account of the credit related inability of an Obligor to make a required
Scheduled Payment).
(f) True
Sales. The
Depositor and the Issuer intend the transfers of Pool Assets hereunder to be
true sales by the Depositor to the Issuer that are absolute and irrevocable and
to provide the Issuer with the full benefits of ownership of the Pool Assets,
and neither the Depositor nor the Issuer intends the transactions contemplated
hereunder to be loans from the Issuer to the Depositor secured by the Pool
Assets.
(g) Servicing
of Pool Assets.
Consistent with the Issuer’s ownership of all Pool Assets and subject to the
terms of the Series 2002-1 Pool Loans, as between the parties to this Agreement,
the Issuer shall have the sole right to service, administer and collect all Pool
Assets, to assign such right and to delegate such right to others. In
consideration of the Issuer’s Purchase of the Pool Assets, the Depositor hereby
acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer intends to assign to the Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders the
rights and interests conveyed by the Depositor to the Issuer hereunder, and
agrees to cooperate fully with the Issuer and its successors and assigns in the
exercise of such rights.
(h) Financing
Statements. In
connection with the foregoing sale, the Depositor agrees to record and file a
financing statement or statements (and continuation statements or other
amendments with respect to such financing statements) with respect to the Pool
Assets sold by the Depositor hereunder meeting the requirements of applicable
state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect
the interests of the Issuer created hereby under the applicable UCC and to
deliver a file-stamped copy of each such
9
financing

Section 6 shall remain operative and in full force and effect, shall survive the
transfer and conveyance of the Pool Loans by the Depositor to the Issuer and the
grant of a security interest in the Pool Assets by the Issuer to the Collateral

Agent and the Noteholders and their respective designees, successors and
assigns.
The
Depositor hereby assigns to the Issuer its rights relating to the Series 2002-1
Pool Loans under the related Purchase Agreements, including without limitation
any rights the Depositor may have to payments due from the related Seller for

expected to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the
Depositor.

Warranties.
(a) Repurchase
or Substitution Obligation. Subject
to Section 9(b), upon discovery by the Depositor or the related Seller or upon
written notice from the Issuer or the Trustee that any Series 2002-1 Pool Loan
is a Defective Loan, the Depositor shall, or shall cause the applicable Seller
to, within 90 days after the earlier of the discovery or receipt of notice
thereof, cure such Defective Loan in all material respects or either (i)
repurchase such Defective Loan from the Issuer or its assignee at the Repurchase
Price or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Loans for such
Defective Loan. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Repurchase
Price” shall
mean an amount equal to the outstanding Principal Balance of such Defective Loan
as of the close of business on the Due Date immediately preceding the Payment
Date on which the repurchase is to be made, plus accrued but unpaid interest
thereon to the date of such repurchase. The Issuer hereby directs the Depositor,
for so long as the Indenture and Servicing Agreement is in effect, to make such
payment on its behalf to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9(b). The
following defects with respect to documents in any Loan File, solely to the
extent they do not impair the validity or enforceability of the subject document
under applicable law, shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of the
representations and warranties contained in Section 6(b) of the related Purchase
Agreement: misspellings of or omissions of initials in names; name changes from
divorce or marriage; discrepancies as to payment dates in a Series 2002-1 Pool
Loan of no more than 30 days; discrepancies as to Scheduled Payments of no more
than $5.00; discrepancies as to origination dates of not more than 30 days;
inclusion of additional parties other than the primary Obligor not listed in the
16
Master
Servicer’s records or in the Series 2002-1 Pool Loan Schedule and
non-substantive typographical errors and other non-substantive minor errors of a
clerical or administrative nature.
(b) Repurchases
and Substitutions. The
Depositor shall provide written notice to the Issuer of any repurchase pursuant
to Section 9(a) not less than two Business Days prior to the date on which such
repurchase is to be effected, specifying the Defective Loan and the Repurchase
Price therefor. Upon the repurchase of a Defective Loan pursuant to Section
9(a), the Depositor shall deposit, or shall cause the applicable Seller to
deposit, the Repurchase Price in the Collection Account on behalf of the Issuer
no later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the Payment Date on which such
repurchase is made (the “Repurchase
Date”).
(c) Delivery
Requirements. If the
applicable Seller elects to substitute a Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans for
a Defective Loan pursuant to the applicable PA Supplement, the Depositor shall
deliver, or shall cause the applicable Seller to deliver, such Qualified
Substitute Loan in the same manner as the other Series 2002-1 Pool Loans sold
hereunder, including delivery of the applicable Loan Documents as required
pursuant to the applicable Custodial Agreement and satisfaction of the same
conditions with respect to such Qualified Substitute Loan as to the Purchase of
Additional Pool Loans set forth in Section 2(b)(iii). No Qualified Substitute
Loan shall be selected in a manner adverse to the Issuer or its assignees.
Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Loans prior to the last day of
the Due Period next preceding the date of substitution shall not be property of
the Issuer, but will be retained by the Master Servicer and remitted by the
Master Servicer to the Depositor for payment to the applicable Seller on the
next succeeding Payment Date. Scheduled Payments due on a Defective Loan prior
to the last day of the Due Period next preceding the date of substitution shall
be property of the Issuer, and from and after such last day of the Due Period
next preceding the date of substitution all Scheduled Payments due and other
amounts received in respect of such Defective Loan shall be the property of the
Depositor or the applicable Seller. The Depositor shall cause the Master
Servicer to deliver a schedule of any Defective Loans so removed and Qualified
Substitute Loans so substituted to the Issuer. Upon each such substitution, the
Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this PPA
Supplement in all respects, and the representations and warranties of the
applicable Seller under the related Purchase Agreement and PA Supplement with
respect to each Qualified Substitute Loan shall be assigned to the Issuer
hereunder. The Depositor shall be obligated to repurchase or substitute, or to
cause the applicable Seller to repurchase or substitute, for any Qualified
Substitute Loan as to which such Seller has breached such Seller’s
representations and warranties in Section 6(b) of the related Purchase Agreement
or applicable PA Supplement to the same extent as for any other Series 2002-1
Pool Loan, as provided herein or therein. In connection with the substitution of
one or more Qualified Substitute Loans for one or more Defective Loans, the
Depositor shall deposit, or shall cause the applicable Seller to deposit, an
amount equal to the related Substitution Adjustment Amount (as defined in the
related Purchase Agreement), if any (the “Substitution
Adjustment Amount”), into
the applicable Collection Account on the date of substitution, without any
reimbursement therefor.
Upon each
repurchase or substitution, the Issuer shall automatically and without further
action sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Depositor or
to the related Seller, if applicable, without recourse, representation or
warranty, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to such Defective
Loan, the related Timeshare Property, the Loan File relating
17
thereto
and any other related Pool Assets, all monies due or to become due with respect
thereto and all Pool Collections with respect thereto (including payments
received from Obligors from and including the last day of the Due Period next
preceding the date of transfer, subject to the payment of any Substitution
Adjustment Amount). The Issuer shall execute such documents, releases and
instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall
reasonably be requested by the Depositor or the Seller to effect the conveyance
of such Defective Loan, the related Timeshare Property and related Loan File
pursuant to this Section 9(c).
Promptly
after the occurrence of a Repurchase Date and after the repurchase of or
substitution for Defective Loans in respect of which the Repurchase Price has
been paid or one or more Qualified Substitute Loans has been substituted
therefor on such date, the Depositor shall direct the Master Servicer to delete
such Defective Loans from the Series 2002-1 Pool Loan Schedule.
The
obligation of the Depositor to repurchase or substitute for any Defective Loan
shall constitute the sole remedy against the Depositor, the Sellers or their
Affiliates with respect to any breach of the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 6(b) of the applicable Purchase Agreement available hereunder
to the Issuer or its successors or assigns.
Section

Substitution of Schedule 1-A Pool Loans. On each
Closing Date and each Addition Date, the Depositor shall designate the Pool
Loans, if any, Purchased on such
20
date that
will be subject to optional substitution in whole or in part by the Depositor
(such Pool Loans, the “Schedule
1-A Pool Loans”), and
such Pool Loans shall be listed as Schedule 1-A Pool Loans in the Pool Loan
Schedule. All other Pool Loans Purchased by the Issuer from the Depositor on any
Closing Date or Addition Cut-Off Date (the “Schedule
1-B Pool Loans”) shall
be listed as Schedule 1-B Pool Loans in the Pool Loan Schedule and shall not be
subject to optional substitution pursuant to this Section 12. The Depositor may
not change the designation of any Pool Loan from a Schedule 1-B Pool Loan to a
Schedule 1-A Pool Loan.
(b) [Reserved.]
(c) Substitutions.
Schedule 1-A Pool Loans and any other Pool Loans subject to substitution
pursuant to this Section 12 shall be removed from the Schedule 1-A Pool Loans
and another Pool Loan substituted therefore by the Depositor subject to the
notice and re-conveyance provisions applicable to Defective Loans substitution
provisions of the related PPA Supplement.
(d) Condition
Precedent to Substitution of Pool Loans. No
removal and substitution of any Pool Loans shall be made under Section 12 of
this Agreement on any date unless the Depositor provides a Pool Loan in
substitution for the Pool Loan released in accordance with the provisions
applicable to substitution for Defective Loans.
(e) Repurchases
of Series 2002-1 Pool Loans that Become Defaulted Loans. The
Depositor hereby acknowledges the Sellers’ option to repurchase certain
Defaulted Loans directly from the Issuer on the terms and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in the applicable Series 2002-1 PA
Supplements.
Section
13. [Reserved.]
Section
14. Indemnities
by the Depositor.
Without
limiting any other rights that any Depositor Indemnified Party may have
hereunder or under applicable law, the Depositor agrees to indemnify the Issuer
and each of its successors, permitted transferees and assigns (including the
Trustee for the benefit of Noteholders), and all officers, directors,
shareholders, controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing
(each of the foregoing Persons, a “Depositor
Indemnified Party”), from
and against any and all damages, losses, claims (whether on account of
settlements or otherwise), actions, suits, demands, judgments, liabilities
(including penalties), obligations or disbursements of any kind or nature and
related costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements) awarded against or incurred by any of them, arising out of or as
a result of any of the following (all of the foregoing, collectively,
“Depositor
Indemnified Losses”):
(a) any
representation or warranty made by the Depositor under any of the Facility
Documents having been untrue or incorrect in any respect when made or deemed to
have been made; provided,
however, that
the Depositor’s obligation to repurchase Defective Loans pursuant to Section 9
with respect to any representation assigned to the Issuer pursuant to this
Agreement having been incorrect when made shall be the only remedy available to
the Issuer or its assignees relating to such incorrect
representation;
21
(b) the
failure to vest and maintain in the Issuer a first priority perfected ownership
or security interest in the Pool Assets, free and clear of any Lien arising
through the Depositor or anyone claiming through or under the Depositor;
or
(c) any
failure of the Depositor to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with
the provisions of any Facility Documents to which it is a party.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no indemnification payments shall be payable by the Depositor
pursuant to this Section 14 except to the extent of funds available to the
Depositor for such purpose.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing (and with respect to clause (ii) below, without prejudice to the
rights that the Issuer may have pursuant to the other provisions of this
Agreement or the provisions of any of the other Facility Documents), in no event
shall any Depositor Indemnified Party be indemnified for any Depositor
Indemnified Losses (i) resulting from negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of such Depositor Indemnified Party, (ii) to the extent the same includes
losses in respect of Pool Assets and reimbursement therefor that would
constitute credit recourse to the Depositor for the amount of any Pool Asset not
paid by the related Obligor or (iii) resulting from the action or omission of
the Master Servicer.
If for
any reason the indemnification provided in this Section 14 is unavailable to a
Depositor Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold a Depositor Indemnified
Party harmless, then the Depositor shall contribute to the maximum amount
payable or paid to such Depositor Indemnified Party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only the relative benefits received by such Depositor Indemnified Party on the
one hand and the Depositor on the other hand, but also the relative fault of
such Depositor Indemnified Party and the Depositor, and any other relevant
equitable considerations.
