The Company and each Guarantor (individually, an "OBLIGOR" and,
collectively, the "OBLIGORS") warrants and represents to each Noteholder that,
as of the Effective Date, the following statements are true, correct and
complete:
3.1 ORGANIZATION; POWER AND AUTHORITY. Each Obligor is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of its
incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law,
other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in
good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Obligor has the corporate power
and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own
2
or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to
transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder and under the Amended Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement and the
Amended Notes.
3.2 AUTHORIZATION, ETC. This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered and duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the
part of each Obligor, and each of this Agreement, the Amended Note Purchase and
Guarantee Agreement and the Amended Notes constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Obligor enforceable against each Obligor in accordance with
its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (b) general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law).
3.3 DISCLOSURE. None of the written statements, documents or other written
materials furnished by, or on behalf of, the Obligors to the Noteholders in
connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and
none of the financial statements and other certificates provided to the
Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of the Note Purchase and Guaranty
Agreement contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material
fact necessary to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading
in light of the circumstances in which they were made. There is no fact which
the Obligors have not disclosed to the Noteholders which materially affects
adversely or, so far as the Obligor can now foresee, will materially affect
adversely the business, prospects, profits, properties or condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the
ability of the Obligors to perform their obligations set forth herein or in the
Amended Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement or the Amended Notes.
3.4 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, OTHER INSTRUMENTS, ETC. The execution, delivery
and performance by the Obligors of this Agreement will not:
(a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default
under, or result in the creation of any lien in respect of any Property of
any of the Obligors under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan,
purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any
other agreement or instrument to which Obligors are bound or by which the
Obligors or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected,
including, without limitation, Section 8.7 of the Credit Agreement (as
hereinafter defined);
(b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any
court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to any of the
Obligors; or
(c) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation
of any Governmental Authority applicable to any of the Obligors.
3
3.5 GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORIZATIONS, ETC. No consent, approval or
authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental
Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance
by the Obligors of this Agreement.
3.6 LITIGATION; OBSERVANCE OF AGREEMENTS, STATUTES AND ORDERS.
(a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of the Obligors, threatened against or affecting the assets,
properties of the Obligors, or the Obligors in any court or before any
arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(b) None of the Obligors is in default under any term of any
agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or
any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or
Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law,
ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental
Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
3.7 NO DEFAULTS. No event has occurred and is continuing and no condition
exists which, upon the effectiveness of the amendments provided for in this
Agreement or the Credit Agreement Amendment (as hereinafter defined), would
constitute a Default or Event of Default.
3.8 CREDIT AGREEMENT. The Obligors have delivered a true and correct copy
of the Credit Agreement Amendment to all Noteholders. The Credit Agreement
Amendment is in full force and effect and all conditions precedent to its
effectiveness have been satisfied in full or otherwise complied with by the
Obligors. Other than as expressly set forth in the Credit Agreement Amendment,
there are no other agreements or understandings between any of the Obligors and
any of the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) identified
therein with respect to the Credit Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement
Amendment) or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or the Credit Agreement
Amendment. In addition, with respect to the Credit Agreement, no defaults or
events of default exist or will exist thereunder immediately after giving effect
to the Credit Agreement Amendment and this Agreement.
3.9 MATERIAL ASSETS. Pursuant to the Security Documents, all of the
Obligors' material Collateral has been assigned or pledged to Citibank, N.A., as
collateral agent for the Noteholders and the Banks, and such assignments and
pledges remain in full force and effect.
3.10 INCORPORATION OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES FROM NOTE PURCHASE
AND GUARANTEE AGREEMENT. The representations and warranties contained in Section
5 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement are and will be true, correct and
complete in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date to the same
extent as though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such
representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which
case they were true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of
such earlier date.
4
4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
The Amendments shall become effective as of the Effective Date upon the
satisfaction of the following conditions:

1. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES; GUARANTEE.
Section 1(a) of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:
"(a) The Company will authorize the issue and sale of $50,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its Guaranteed Senior Secured Notes, due
June 16, 2004, such term to include any such notes issued in substitution
therefor pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement. The Notes shall bear
interest at the Interest Rate. Interest shall be payable semiannually on
the sixteenth day of June and December in each year (commencing December
16, 1999). Commencing December 16, 2001, and continuing until March 16,
2003, interest shall be payable quarterly on the sixteenth day of each
March, June, September and December in each year. Commencing April 16,
2003, and continuing each month thereafter, interest shall be payable
monthly on the last Business Day of each month and at maturity. As used
herein, the term "COVENANT COMPLIANCE DATE" shall mean the first date at
the end of any fiscal quarter on which the ratio set forth in Section 10.5
is greater than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0, the ratio set forth in Section
10.6 is less than or equal to 2.5 to 1.0, and the Consolidated Leverage
Ratio is less than or equal to 2.5 to 1.0 (it being the intent of the
parties hereto that the Company must be in compliance with each of the
foregoing ratios as of the end of the same fiscal quarter in order for the
Covenant Compliance Date to occur). Upon the occurrence, and during the
continuance, of an Event of Default, the principal of and, to the extent
permitted by law, interest on the Notes and any other amounts owing
hereunder shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Default Rate. The
Notes will mature on June 16, 2004, and will be substantially in the form
set out in Exhibit 1, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be
approved by each Purchaser and the Company. Certain capitalized terms used
in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a "Schedule" or
an "Exhibit" are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit
attached to this Agreement."
2. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 10.5 FIXED CHARGES COVERAGE RATIO.
Section 10.5 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:
"SECTION 10.5 FIXED CHARGES COVERAGE RATIO.
As calculated on the last day of each fiscal quarter, the
Company shall not permit the ratio of (a) Consolidated Income
Available for Fixed Charges to (b) Consolidated Fixed Charges for
the period consisting of such fiscal quarter and the immediately
preceding three fiscal quarters,
Exhibit A-1-1
treated as a single accounting period, to be less than the corresponding ratio
set forth below:

10/01/03 - 12/31/03 1.29 to 1.0
01/01/04 - Maturity 2.00 to 1.0"
3. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 10.6 LIMITATIONS ON DEBT.
Section 10.6 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:
"SECTION 10.6 LIMITATIONS ON DEBT.
The Company will not permit the ratio of (i) Consolidated Debt as of
the end of each fiscal quarter to (ii) Consolidated Operating Cash Flow
for the period consisting of such fiscal quarter and the preceding three
fiscal quarters, treated as a single accounting period, to be greater than
the corresponding ratio set forth below:
Period Ratio
------ -----
Closing Date - 9/30/01 3.00 to 1.0

10/01/03 - 12/31/03 3.51 to 1.0
01/01/04 - Maturity 2.50 to 1.0
If, during the period over which Consolidated Operating Cash Flow is being
calculated, the Company or a Subsidiary has acquired one or more Persons
(or the assets thereof) resulting in such Persons becoming, or
Exhibit A -1-2
otherwise resulting in, Subsidiaries, compliance with this covenant will
be determined by calculating consolidated Operating Cash Flow on a pro
forma basis as if all (but not less than all) of such Subsidiaries had
become Subsidiaries at the beginning of the four fiscal quarters most
recently ended."
4. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 10.
Section 10 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
amending and restating Section 10.11 in its entirety and replacing it with the
following:
"SECTION 10.11 PREPAYMENTS OF INDEBTEDNESS, ETC.
The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not (a) amend or modify
the Credit Agreement if such amendment or modification would add or
change any terms in a manner adverse to the Company and its
Subsidiaries, or change the definition of Consolidated Leverage
Ratio (or any definitions included within the definition of
Consolidated Leverage Ratio) or shorten the final maturity or
increase the amount of the revolving credit commitment available to
be borrowed thereunder or require any payment to be made sooner than
originally scheduled or increase the interest rate applicable
thereto (or the interest rate spread applicable thereto), or (b)
make any prepayment of principal of any Indebtedness (which shall
not be deemed to include normal repayments in the ordinary course of
business of amounts owed under the revolving credit facility under
the Credit Agreement and shall not include any refinancings or
replacements of the revolving credit facility under the Credit
Agreement upon the scheduled maturity thereof with a replacement
revolving credit facility in the same principal amount) or elect or
agree to any reduction of commitments or availability under any
revolving credit facility unless, in either case, the Company or its
Subsidiaries make a Pro Rata Prepayment on the Notes (including the
Make-Whole Amount with respect to such Pro Rata Prepayment) at the
same time as it makes such prepayment of principal or reduces such
commitments or availability. For the purposes hereof, "PRO RATA
PREPAYMENT" means the principal amount determined by multiplying (i)
the principal amount paid to the holder of Indebtedness or the
amount of the reduction of commitments or availability, by (ii) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the principal balance of the
Notes (not including the Make-Whole Amount) and the denominator of
which is the principal balance of the Indebtedness with respect to
which such prepayment is being made or, in the case of any reduction
of commitments or availability under any revolving credit facility,
the amount of the revolving credit commitment available to be
borrowed thereunder (and before, in either case, giving effect to
such prepayment or reduction)."
Exhibit A-1-3
5. AMENDMENT TO SCHEDULE B.
5.1 Schedule B to the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting the defined term "Consolidated Income Available for Fixed
Charges" in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:
"'CONSOLIDATED INCOME AVAILABLE FOR FIXED CHARGES' means for any
period the sum of (i) Consolidated Adjusted Net Income, (ii) Consolidated
Income Tax Expense and (iii) Consolidated Fixed Charges; provided,
however, that (A) the calculation of Consolidated Income Available for
Fixed Charges shall exclude non-cash charges occurring in the fiscal
quarter ended September 30, 2001 in an aggregate amount not to exceed
$2,500,000 resulting from (x) the write-down of the value of the Company's
existing reservation system, and (y) the recognition of deferred
acquisition costs; (B) the calculation of Consolidated Income Available
for Fixed Charges occurring in the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2002
shall exclude the following: (x) charges of $2,585,865.65 for severance

contract dispute in Hawaii and an indirect lawsuit in Destin, Florida; and
(z) charges of $10,593,977.09 in connection with the writedown of First

for Fixed Charges for the fiscal quarters ending in calendar year 2003
shall exclude charges in an aggregate amount not to exceed $810,000 for
expenses related to the relocation of the Company's corporate headquarters
to Destin, Florida."

further amended by deleting the defined term "Consolidated Operating Cash Flow"

items and other non-cash items of the Company and its Subsidiaries
deducted in the determination of net income; which deferred items and
other non-cash items of the Company shall include the following: (A)
non-cash charges occurring in the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2001
