NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth
herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Definitions; Interpretation. Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in "Standard Definitions"
attached hereto as Annex A.
SECTION 2. Acquisition of Subsequent Timeshare Loans and
Contribution of Capital to the Depositor.
(a) Timeshare Loans and Contribution of Capital. On each Transfer
Date during the Prefunding Period, the Seller hereby agrees to sell in part and
contribute in part to the Depositor, in return for the Timeshare Loan
Acquisition Price (to be paid (A) in cash equal to 91% of the Timeshare Loan
Acquisition Price of each of the Subsequent Timeshare Loans to be sold on such
date and (B) an increase in its equity ownership of the Depositor) hereby
transfers, assigns, sells and grants to the Depositor, without recourse (except
as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), any and all of the Seller's
right, title and interest in and to (i) any Subsequent Timeshare Loans listed on
the related Subsequent Transfer Notice, (ii) the Receivables in respect of such
Subsequent Timeshare Loans due after the related Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related
Timeshare Loan Documents (excluding any rights as developer or declarant under
the Timeshare Declaration, the Timeshare Program Consumer Documents or the
Timeshare Program Governing Documents), (iv) all Related Security in respect of
each such Subsequent Timeshare Loan and (v) all income, payments, proceeds and
other benefits and rights related to any of the foregoing (the property in
clauses (i)-(v), being the "ASSETS"). Upon such contribution, sale and transfer,
the ownership of each Subsequent Timeshare Loan and all collections allocable to
principal and interest thereon since the related Cut-Off Date and all other
property interests or rights conveyed pursuant to and referenced in this Section
2(a)(i) shall immediately vest in the Depositor, its successors and assigns. The
Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor claim any
ownership interest in any Subsequent Timeshare Loan for any purpose whatsoever
other than for federal and state income tax reporting, if applicable. The
parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that the "credit risk" of the
Subsequent Timeshare Loans conveyed hereunder shall be borne by the Depositor
and its subsequent assignees.
(b) Delivery of Timeshare Loan Documents. In connection with the
contribution, sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Subsequent
Timeshare Loans hereunder, the Seller hereby agrees to deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Custodian all related Timeshare Loan Files and to the Servicer
all related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files.
(c) Collections. The Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited
all collections in respect of Subsequent Timeshare Loans received by the Seller
or its Affiliates after the related Cut-Off Date in the Lockbox Account.
(d) Limitation of Liability. Neither the Depositor nor any
subsequent assignee of the Depositor shall have any obligation or liability with
respect to any Subsequent Timeshare Loan nor shall the Depositor or any
subsequent assignee have any liability to any Obligor in respect of any
Subsequent Timeshare Loan. No such obligation or liability is intended to be
assumed by the Depositor or any subsequent assignee herewith and any such
liability is hereby expressly disclaimed.
SECTION 3. Intended Characterization; Grant of Security Interest. It
is the intention of the parties hereto that each transfer of Subsequent
Timeshare Loans to be made pursuant to the terms hereof shall constitute a sale,
in part, and a capital contribution, in part, by the Seller to the Depositor and
not a loan secured by such Subsequent Timeshare Loans. In the event, however,
that a court of competent jurisdiction were to hold that any such transfer
constitutes a loan and not a sale and contribution, it is the intention of the
parties hereto that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Depositor
as of the date hereof a first priority perfected security interest in all of the
Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the Assets specified in
Section 2 hereof and that with respect to such conveyance, this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law. In the event of the
characterization of any such transfer as a loan, the amount of interest payable
or paid with respect to such loan under the terms of this Agreement shall be
limited to an amount which shall not exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of
interest allowed by the applicable state law or any applicable law of the United
States permitting a higher maximum non-usurious rate that preempts such
applicable state law, which could lawfully be contracted for, charged or
received (the "HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE"). In the event any payment of interest on
any such loan exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the parties hereto stipulate that
(a) to the extent possible given the term of such loan, such excess amount
previously paid or to be paid with respect to such loan be applied to reduce the
principal balance of such loan, and the provisions thereof immediately be deemed
reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the
necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then
applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise
called for thereunder and (b) to the extent that the reduction of the principal
balance of, and the amounts collectible under, such loan and the reformation of
the provisions thereof described in the immediately preceding clause (a) is not
possible given the term of such loan, such excess amount will be deemed to have
been paid with respect to such loan as a result of an error and upon discovery
of such error or upon notice thereof by any party hereto such amount shall be
refunded by the recipient thereof.
The characterization of the Seller as "debtor" and the Depositor as
"secured party" in any such financing statement required hereunder is solely for
protective purposes and shall in no way be construed as being contrary to the
intent of the parties that this transaction be treated as a sale and
contribution to the Depositor of the Seller's entire right, title and interest
in and to the Assets.
Each of the Seller, Club Trust, Club Trustee and any of their Affiliates
hereby agrees to make the appropriate entries in its general accounting records
to indicate that the Subsequent Timeshare Loans have been transferred to the
Depositor and its subsequent assignees.
SECTION 4. Conditions Precedent to Acquisition of Subsequent
Timeshare Loans by the Depositor. The obligations of the Depositor to purchase
any Subsequent Timeshare Loans hereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction of
the following conditions:
(a) With respect to each Transfer Date for each Subsequent Timeshare
Loan or any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan replacing a Subsequent Timeshare
Loan, all representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 5(a)
hereof shall be true and correct on such date as if made on such date, and all
representations and warranties as to the Timeshare Loans contained in Section
5(b) hereof and all information provided in the Schedule of Timeshare Loans in
respect of each such Timeshare Loan conveyed on such Transfer Date shall be true
and correct on such Transfer Date.
(b) On or prior to a Transfer Date, the Seller shall have delivered
or shall have caused the delivery of (i) the related Timeshare Loan Files to the
Custodian and the Custodian shall have delivered a receipt therefore pursuant to
the Custodial Agreement and (ii) the Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the
Servicer.
(c) The Seller shall have delivered or caused to be delivered all
other information theretofore required or reasonably requested by the Depositor
to be delivered by the Seller or performed or caused to be performed all other
obligations required to be performed as of the related Transfer Date, including
all filings, recordings and/or registrations as may be necessary in the
reasonable opinion of the Depositor, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to
establish and preserve the right, title and interest of the Depositor, the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, in the related Timeshare
Loans.
(d) On the related Transfer Date, the Indenture shall be in full
force and effect.
(e) The Depositor shall apply funds received from the Issuer
withdrawn from the Prefunding Account, to the extent necessary, to pay the
Seller the Timeshare Loan Acquisition Price for each Subsequent Timeshare Loan.
Each Subsequent Timeshare Loan conveyed on a Transfer Date shall be an Eligible
Timeshare Loan and each of the conditions herein and in the Indenture for the
purchase of Subsequent Timeshare Loans shall have been satisfied.
(f) Each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan replacing a Subsequent
Timeshare Loan shall satisfy each of the criteria specified in the definition of
"Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan" and each of the conditions herein and in
the Indenture for substitution of Timeshare Loans shall have been satisfied.

SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties and Certain Covenants of
the Seller.
(a) The Seller represents and warrants to the Depositor and the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, on the Closing Date and on
each Transfer Date (with respect to any Subsequent Timeshare Loans or Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans transferred on such Transfer Date) as follows:
(i) Due Incorporation; Valid Existence; Good Standing. It is a
corporation duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation; and is duly qualified to do
business as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of
each jurisdiction where the character of its property, the nature of its
business or the performance of its obligations under this Agreement makes
such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified
will not have a material adverse effect on its business or its ability to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated
hereunder or thereunder or the validity or enforceability of any Timeshare
Loans.
(ii) Possession of Licenses, Certificates, Franchises and
Permits. It holds, and at all times during the term of this Agreement will
hold, all material licenses, certificates, franchises and permits from all
governmental authorities necessary for the conduct of its business, and
has received no notice of proceedings relating to the revocation of any
such license, certificate, franchise or permit, which singly or in the
aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding,
would materially and adversely affect its ability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to
which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or
thereunder or the validity or enforceability of any Timeshare Loans.
(iii) Corporate Authority and Power. It has, and at all times
during the term of this Agreement will have, all requisite corporate power
and authority to own its properties, to conduct its business, to execute
and deliver this Agreement and all documents and transactions contemplated
hereunder and to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and
any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or under the
transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder. The Seller has all
requisite corporate power and authority to acquire, own, transfer and
convey Timeshare Loans to the Depositor.
(iv) Authorization, Execution and Delivery Valid and Binding.
This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents and instruments
required or contemplated hereby to be executed and delivered by the Seller
have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Seller and,
assuming the due execution and delivery by, the other party or parties
hereto and thereto, constitute legal, valid and binding agreements
enforceable against the Seller in accordance with their respective terms
subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
liquidation, dissolution, moratorium and other similar applicable laws
affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally applicable in
the event of the bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or
dissolution, as applicable, of the Seller and to general principles of
equity, regardless of whether such enforceability shall be considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law. This Agreement constitutes a valid
transfer of the Seller's interest in the Subsequent Timeshare Loans to the
Depositor or, in the event of the characterization of any such transfer as
a loan, the valid creation of a first priority perfected security interest
in such Timeshare Loans in favor of the Depositor.
(v) No Violation of Law, Rule, Regulation, etc. The execution,
delivery and performance by the Seller of this Agreement and any other
Transaction Document to which it is a party do not and will not (A)
violate any of the provisions of its articles of incorporation or bylaws,
(B) violate any provision of any law, governmental rule or regulation
currently in effect applicable to it or its properties or by which the
Seller or its properties may be bound or affected, including, without
limitation, any bulk transfer laws, where such violation would have a
material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or
under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder or the
validity or enforceability of the Timeshare Loans, (C) violate any
judgment, decree, writ, injunction, award, determination or order
currently in effect applicable to it or its properties or by which the
Seller or its properties are bound or affected, where such violation would
have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a
party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder or
the validity or enforceability of any Timeshare Loans, (D) conflict with,
or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the
provisions of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other
instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound where such
violation would have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform
its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to
which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or
thereunder or the validity or enforceability of Timeshare Loans or (E)
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its
properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust, contract or other instrument.
(vi) Governmental Consent. No consent, approval, order or
authorization of, and no filing with or notice to, any court or other
Governmental Authority in respect of the Seller is required which has not
been obtained in connection with the authorization, execution, delivery or
performance by the Seller of this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents to which it is a party or under the transactions
contemplated hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer of Timeshare Loans and the creation of the security interest of
the Depositor therein pursuant to Section 3 hereof.
(vii) Defaults. It is not in default under any material
agreement, contract, instrument or indenture to which it is a party or by
which it or its properties is or are bound, or with respect to any order
of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body, in
each case, which would have a material adverse effect on the transactions
contemplated hereunder or on its business, operations, financial condition
or assets, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or
both would constitute such a default with respect to any such agreement,
contract, instrument or
indenture, or with respect to any such order of any court, administrative
agency, arbitrator or governmental body.
(viii) Insolvency. It is solvent and will not be rendered
insolvent by the transfer of any Timeshare Loans hereunder. On and after
the Closing Date, it will not engage in any business or transaction the
result of which would cause the property remaining with it to constitute
an unreasonably small amount of capital.
(ix) Pending Litigation or Other Proceedings. Other than as
described in the Offering Circular, there is no pending or, to the its
Knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any
court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against or
affecting it which, if decided adversely, would materially and adversely
affect (A) its condition (financial or otherwise), business or operations,
(B) its ability to perform its obligations under, or the validity or
enforceability of, this Agreement or any other documents or transactions
contemplated under this Agreement, (C) any Timeshare Loan or title of any
Obligor to any related Timeshare Property or (D) the Depositor's or any of
its assigns' ability to foreclose or otherwise enforce the liens of the
Mortgage Notes and the rights of the Obligors to use and occupy the
related Timeshare Properties.
(x) Information. No document, certificate or report furnished
or required to be furnished by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant to this
Agreement, in its capacity as Seller, contains or will contain when
furnished any untrue statement of a material fact or fails or will fail to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which it was made.
There are no facts known to the Seller which, individually or in the
aggregate, materially adversely affect, or which (aside from general
economic trends) may reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect
in the future, the financial condition or assets or business of the
Seller, or which may impair the ability of the Seller to perform its
obligations under this Agreement, which have not been disclosed herein or
therein or in the certificates and other documents furnished to the
Depositor by or on behalf of the Seller specifically for use in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
(xi) Foreign Tax Liability. It is not aware of any Obligor
under a Timeshare Loan who has withheld any portion of payments due under
such Timeshare Loan because of the requirements of a foreign taxing
authority, and no foreign taxing authority has contacted it concerning a
withholding or other foreign tax liability.
(xii) Employee Benefit Plan Liability. As of the Closing Date
and each Transfer Date, as applicable, (i) no "accumulated funding
deficiency" (as such term is defined under ERISA and the Code), whether or
not waived, exists with respect to any "employee pension benefit plan" (as
such term is defined under ERISA) sponsored, maintained or contributed to
by the Seller or any of its affiliates, and, to the Seller's knowledge, no
event has occurred or circumstance exists that may result in an
accumulated funding deficiency as of the last day of the current plan year
of any such
plan; (ii) the Seller and each of its affiliates has made all
contributions required under each multiemployer plan (as such term is
defined under ERISA) (a "Multiemployer Plan") to which the Seller or any

the Seller nor any of its affiliates has withdrawn from any Multiemployer
Plan with respect to which there is any outstanding liability and, to the
Seller's knowledge, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that
presents a risk of the occurrence of any withdrawal from, or the
partition, termination, reorganization or insolvency of, any Seller
Multiemployer Plan that could result in any liability to the Seller.
(xiii) Taxes. It has filed all tax returns (federal, state and
local) which it reasonably believes are required to be filed and has paid
or made adequate provision for the payment of all taxes, assessments and
other governmental charges due from it or is contesting any such tax,
assessment or other governmental charge in good faith through appropriate
proceedings or except where the failure to file or pay will not have a
material adverse effect on the rights and interests of the Depositor. It
knows of no basis for any material additional tax assessment for any
fiscal year for which adequate reserves have not been established. It
intends to pay all such taxes, assessments and governmental charges when
due.

company "controlled" by an "investment company" within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No portion of the Timeshare
Loan Acquisition Price for each of the Timeshare Loans will be used by it

(b) The Seller hereby makes the representations and warranties
relating to the Subsequent Timeshare Loans contained in Schedule I hereto for

benefit of the Noteholders as of each Transfer Date (with respect to each

such Transfer Date), as applicable.
(c) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 5 shall survive the sale and contribution
of each Timeshare Loan to the Depositor and any assignment of such Timeshare
Loans by the Depositor and shall continue so long as any such Timeshare Loans
shall remain outstanding or until such time as such Timeshare Loans are
repurchased, purchased or a Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan is provided
pursuant to Section 6 hereof. The Seller acknowledges that it has been advised
that the Depositor intends to assign all of its right, title and interest in and
to each Timeshare Loan and its rights and remedies under this Agreement to the
Issuer. The Seller agrees that, upon any such assignment, the Depositor and any
of its assignees may enforce directly, without joinder of the Depositor (but
subject to any defense that the Seller may have under this Agreement) all rights
and remedies hereunder.
(d) With respect to any representations and warranties contained in
Section 5 which are made to the Seller's Knowledge, if it is discovered that any
representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and
adversely affects the value of a Timeshare Loan or the interests of the
Depositor or any subsequent assignee thereof, then notwithstanding such lack of
Knowledge of the accuracy of such representation and warranty at the time such
representation or warranty was made (without regard to any Knowledge
qualifiers), such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of such representation or
warranty for purposes of the repurchase or substitution obligations described in
Sections 6(a)(i) or (ii) below.
SECTION 6. Repurchases and Substitutions.
(a) Mandatory Repurchases and Substitutions for Breaches of
Representations and Warranties. Upon the receipt of notice by the Seller of a
breach of any of the representations and warranties in Section 5 hereof (on the
date on which such representation or warranty was made) which materially and
adversely affects the value of a Subsequent Timeshare Loan or the interests of
the Depositor or any subsequent assignee of the Depositor (including the Issuer
and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders) therein, the Seller
shall, within 60 days of receipt of such notice, cure in all material respects
the circumstance or condition which has caused such representation or warranty
to be incorrect or either (i) repurchase the Depositor's interest in such
Defective Timeshare Loan from the Depositor at the Repurchase Price or (ii)
provide one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans and pay the related
Substitution Shortfall Amounts, if any. (b) Optional Purchases or Substitutions
of Club Loans. The Depositor hereby irrevocably grants to the Seller any options
to repurchase or substitute Original Club Loans it has under the Sale Agreement,
the Transfer Agreement and as described in the following sentence. With respect
any Original Club Loans for which the Seller and the related Obligor have
elected to effect an Upgrade, the Seller will (at its option) either (i) pay the
Repurchase Price for such Original Club Loan or (ii) substitute one or more
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for such Original Club Loan and pay the
related Substitution Shortfall Amounts, if any; provided, however, that the
Seller's option to substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan

Date Collateral Balance less (y) the Loan Balances of all Original Club Loans
previously substituted by the Seller on the related substitution dates pursuant
to this Agreement, the Sale Agreement and/or the Transfer Agreement. The Seller
shall use best efforts to exercise its substitution option with respect to
Original Club Loans prior to exercise of its repurchase option. To the extent
that the Seller shall elect to substitute Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans
for an Original Club Loan, the Seller shall use best efforts to cause each such
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan to be, in the following order of priority,
(i) the Upgrade Club Loan related to such Original Club Loan and (ii) an Upgrade
Club Loan unrelated to such Original Club Loan.
(c) Optional Purchases or Substitutions of Defaulted Timeshare
Loans. The depositor hereby irrevocably grants to the Seller any options to
repurchase or substitute Defaulted Club Loans it has under the Sale Agreement,
the Transfer Agreement and as described in the following sentence. With respect
to Defaulted Timeshare Loans on any date, the Seller will have the option, but
not the obligation, to either (i) purchase a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan
subject to the lien of the Indenture at the Repurchase Price for such related
Defaulted Timeshare Loan or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified Substitute
Timeshare Loans for such related Defaulted Timeshare Loan and pay the related
Substitution Shortfall Amounts, if any; provided, however, that the Seller's
option to purchase a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan or to substitute one or
more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan
is limited on any date to the Optional Purchase Limit and the Optional
Substitution Limit, respectively. The Seller may irrevocably waive its option to
purchase or substitute a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan by delivering to the
Indenture Trustee a Waiver Letter in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
(d) Payment of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts.
The Seller hereby agrees to remit or cause to be remitted all amounts in respect
of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts payable during the
related Due Period in immediately available funds to the Indenture Trustee to be
deposited in the Collection Account on the related Transfer Date in accordance
with the provisions of the Indenture. In the event that more than one Subsequent
Timeshare Loan is replaced pursuant to Sections 6(a), (b) or (c) hereof on any
Transfer Date, the Substitution Shortfall Amounts and the Loan Balances of
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be calculated on an aggregate basis
for all substitutions made on such Transfer Date.
(e) Schedule of Timeshare Loans. The Seller hereby agrees, on each
date on which a Timeshare Loan has been repurchased, purchased or substituted,
to provide or cause to be provided to the Depositor, the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with a electronic supplement to Schedule III hereto and the
Schedule of Timeshare Loans reflecting the removal and/or substitution of
Subsequent Timeshare Loans and subjecting any Qualified Substitute Timeshare
Loans to the provisions of this Agreement.
(f) Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans. On the related Transfer
Date, the Seller hereby agrees to deliver or to cause the delivery of the
Timeshare Loan Files relating to the Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans to the
Indenture Trustee or to the Custodian, at the direction of the Indenture
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. As of such related
Transfer Date, the Seller does hereby transfer, assign, sell and grant to the
Depositor, without recourse (except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8
hereof), any and all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to (i)
each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan conveyed to the Depositor on such
Transfer Date, (ii) the Receivables in respect of the Qualified Substitute
Timeshare Loans due after the related Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare
Loan Documents (excluding any rights as developer or declarant under the
Timeshare Declaration, the Timeshare Program Consumer Documents or the Timeshare
Program Governing Documents), (iv) all Related Security in respect of such
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans and (v) all income, payments, proceeds and
other benefits and rights related to any of the foregoing. Upon such sale, the
ownership of each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan and all collections
allocable to principal and interest thereon since the related Cut-Off Date and
all other property interests or rights conveyed pursuant to and referenced in
this Section 6(f) shall immediately vest in the Depositor, its successors and
assigns. The Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership
nor claim any ownership interest in any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan for
any purpose whatsoever other than consolidated financial and federal and state
income tax reporting.
The Seller agrees that such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be
subject to the provisions of this Agreement and shall thereafter be deemed a
"Subsequent Timeshare Loan" for the purposes of this Agreement.
(g) Officer's Certificate for Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans.
The Seller shall, on each related Transfer Date, certify or cause to be
certified in writing to the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee that
each new Timeshare Loan meets all the criteria of the definition of "Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loan" and that (i) the Timeshare Loan Files for such
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans have been delivered to the Custodian, and
(ii) the Timeshare Loan Servicing Files for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare
Loans have been delivered to the Servicer.
(h) Subsequent Transfer Notices. The Seller shall, on each related
Transfer Date, deliver a Subsequent Transfer Notice in the form attached as
Exhibit J to the Indenture, as specified by Section 4.3 of the Indenture.
(i) Release. In connection with any repurchase, purchase or
substitution of one or more Subsequent Timeshare Loans contemplated by this
Section 6, upon satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Section 6, the
Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver or
shall cause the execution and delivery of such releases and instruments of
transfer or assignment presented to it by the Seller, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee the legal
and beneficial ownership of such Subsequent Timeshare Loans. The Depositor, the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release the
related Timeshare Loan Files to the Seller or its designee and the Servicer to
release the related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the Seller or its
designee.
(j) Sole Remedy. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of
the Seller contained in Section 6(a) to cure a material breach, or to repurchase
or substitute Defective Timeshare Loans and the obligation of the Seller to
indemnify pursuant to Section 8, shall constitute the sole remedies available to
the Depositor or its subsequent assignees for the breaches of any its
representation or warranty contained in Section 5 and such remedies are not
intended to and do not constitute "credit recourse" to the Seller.
SECTION 7. Additional Covenants of the Seller. The Seller hereby
covenants and agrees with the Depositor as follows:
(a) It shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and
orders applicable to it and its business and properties except where the failure

Document to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder
or thereunder or the validity or enforceability of the Timeshare Loans.
(b) It shall preserve and maintain its existence (corporate or
otherwise), rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its
organization and except where the failure to so preserve and maintain will not
have a material adverse effect on its business or its ability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it
is a
party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder or the
validity or enforceability of the Timeshare Loans.
(c) On each Transfer Date, as applicable, it shall indicate in its
and its Affiliates' computer files and other records that each Subsequent
Timeshare Loan has been sold to the Depositor.

filed, at its own expense, financing statements in favor of the Depositor, and,
if applicable, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the
Noteholders, with respect to the Subsequent Timeshare Loans, in the form and
manner reasonably requested by the Depositor or its assigns. The Seller shall
deliver file-stamped copies of such financing statements to the Depositor, the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders.
(f) It agrees from time to time to, at its expense, promptly execute
and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further
actions, that may be necessary, or that the Depositor, the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully
evidence the sale and contribution of the Subsequent Timeshare Loans to the
Depositor, or to enable the Depositor to exercise and enforce its rights and
remedies hereunder or under any Subsequent Timeshare Loan including, but not
limited to, powers of attorney, UCC financing statements and assignments of
mortgage. It hereby appoints the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
as attorneys-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is
therefore irrevocable, to act on behalf and in the name of the Seller under this
Section 7(f).
(g) Any change in the legal name of the Seller and any use by it of
any tradename, fictitious name, assumed name or "doing business as" name
occurring after the Closing Date shall be promptly disclosed to the Depositor
and the Indenture Trustee in writing.
(h) Upon the discovery or receipt of notice by a Responsible Officer
of the Seller of a breach of any of its representations or warranties and
covenants contained herein, the Seller shall promptly disclose to the Depositor,
the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, in reasonable detail, the nature of such
breach.
(i) In the event that the Seller shall receive any payments in
respect of a Subsequent Timeshare Loan after the Closing Date or Transfer Date,
as applicable (including any insurance proceeds that are not payable to the
related Obligor), the Seller shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt,
transfer or cause to be transferred, such payments to the Lockbox Account.
(j) The Seller will keep its principal place of business and chief
executive office and the office where it keeps its records concerning the
Subsequent Timeshare Loans at the address of Bluegreen listed herein.
(k) In the event that the Seller or the Depositor or any assignee of
the Depositor should receive actual notice of any transfer taxes arising out of
the transfer, assignment and conveyance of a Subsequent Timeshare Loan to the
Depositor, on written demand by the Depositor, or upon the Seller otherwise
being given notice thereof, the Seller shall pay, and otherwise indemnify and
hold the Depositor, or any subsequent assignee harmless, on an after-tax basis,
from and against any and all such transfer taxes.
(l) The Seller authorizes the Depositor, the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to file continuation statements, and amendments thereto,
relating to the Subsequent Timeshare Loans and all payments made with regard to
the related Subsequent Timeshare Loans without the signature of the Seller where
permitted by law. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be
sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. The Depositor
confirms that it is not its present intention to file a photocopy or other
reproduction of this Agreement as a financing statement, but reserves the right
to do so if, in its good faith determination, there is at such time no
reasonable alternative remaining to it.
SECTION 8. Indemnification.

Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Initial Purchaser (collectively, the
"INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") against any and all claims, losses, liabilities,
(including reasonable legal fees and related costs) that the Depositor, the
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Initial Purchaser may
sustain directly related to any breach of the representations and warranties of
the Seller under Section 5 hereof (the "INDEMNIFIED AMOUNTS") excluding, however
(i) Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party; (ii) any recourse for
any uncollectible Subsequent Timeshare Loan not related to a breach of
representation or warranty; (iii) recourse to the Seller for a Defective
Timeshare Loan so long as the same is cured, substituted or repurchased pursuant
to Section 6 hereof, (iv) income, franchise or similar taxes by such Indemnified
Party arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the transfer of the
Subsequent Timeshare Loans; (v) Indemnified Amounts attributable to any
violation by an Indemnified Party of any requirement of law related to an
Indemnified Party; or (vi) the operation or administration of the Indemnified
Party generally and not related to the enforcement of this Agreement. The Seller
shall (A) promptly notify the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee if a claim is
made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Subsequent Timeshare
Loans, and relating to (i) the failure by the Seller to perform its duties in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) a breach of the Seller's
representations, covenants and warranties contained in this Agreement, (B)
assume (with the consent of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee,
the Noteholders or the Initial Purchaser, as applicable, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld) the defense of any such claim and (C) pay all expenses
in connection therewith, including legal counsel fees and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy any judgment, order or decree which may be entered against
it or the Depositor, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the

indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 8 and the recipient thereafter
collects from another Person any amount relating to the matters covered by the

Seller.
(b) The obligations of the Seller under this Section 8 to indemnify

Initial Purchaser shall survive the termination of this Agreement and continue
until the Notes are paid in full or otherwise released or discharged.

not, directly or indirectly, institute, or cause to be instituted, or join any
Person in instituting, against the Depositor or any Association, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other
proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law so long as
there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the latest maturing
Notes issued by the Issuer.

provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing and
mailed or telecommunicated, or delivered as to each party hereto, at its address
