W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend and restate in its entirety the Amended Agreement as provided herein, and all actions required to do so under the Amended Agreement have been taken;
WHEREAS, the Issuer, Bluegreen, the Club Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Funding Agents and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as Indenture Trustee (together with its successors in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”), are parties to a certain Fifth Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of December 1, 2013 (as the same may from time to time be amended or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”), pursuant to which the Issuer has issued its Timeshare Loan-Backed VFN Notes, Series I (the “Notes”); and
WHEREAS, the Issuer may, from time to time, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and this Agreement, request Borrowings, such Borrowings to be evidenced by the Notes.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby expressly acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

- 1 -
SECTION II. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS
Section 2.1. Purchases. (a) The Notes shall be delivered by the Issuer to and registered in the name of each Funding Agent for its Purchaser Group, as agent and nominee for the members of such Purchaser Group, and in each case shall be for an aggregate principal amount equal to the Commitment of the Bank Purchaser in such Purchaser Group.
(b) On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement from the Closing Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Conduit Purchaser in each Purchaser Group may, and if the Conduit Purchaser in a Purchaser Group does not (or if there is no Conduit Purchaser in a Purchaser Group), the Bank Purchaser in the such Purchaser Group shall, advance its Funding Percentage of each Borrowing requested; provided that in no event shall a Bank Purchaser be required on any date to make an advance exceeding its aggregate Available Commitment, (determined prior to giving effect to such advance or the Maximum Borrowing Amount); provided, further that in no event shall Borrowings occur more frequently than twice every calendar month unless otherwise approved by the Funding Agents.
(c) Such advance shall be made available to the Issuer, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.2 hereof, at or prior to 4:00 p.m. New York City time on the applicable Funding Date by deposit of immediately available funds into an account designated by the Issuer to the Funding Agents.
(d) Each Borrowing on the applicable Funding Date shall be made on prior notice from the Issuer received by the Funding Agents (such notice, a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the second Business Day preceding such Funding Date. Each Borrowing Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate amount of the Borrowing, which may not exceed the Maximum Borrowing Amount, and (ii) the applicable Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day) and shall be in substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. Borrowings may occur on any Business Day. Each Funding Agent shall promptly forward a copy of all Borrowing Notices to each Purchaser in its Purchaser Group no later than Noon on the same day received.
(e) Pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer shall issue the Notes. Each Borrowing shall be evidenced by a corresponding increase in the Outstanding Note Balance of each Note. Each Note will have its Outstanding Note Balance increased on each Funding Date by its allocable share of such Borrowing.
(f) Payments on the Notes shall be made as provided in the Indenture and each Funding Agent shall allocate to the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group each payment in respect of the Notes received by the Funding Agent in its capacity as nominee of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group.
(g) Each Funding Agent shall keep, with respect to its Purchaser Group, records of each Borrowing, each Interest Accrual Period applicable thereto, the interest rate(s) applicable to the Notes and each payment of principal and interest thereon. Such records shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof absent manifest error.
- 2 -
(h) The aggregate minimum advance for a Funding Date shall be $2,000,000; provided, however, that if the Available Commitment shall be less than $2,000,000, the minimum advance shall be equal to the Available Commitment.
Section 2.2. Reductions, Increases and Extensions of Commitments. (a) At any time the Issuer may, acting at the direction of the Residual Interest Owner, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Funding Agents, terminate the Commitments or reduce the aggregate Commitments; provided, however, such aggregate Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than $20,000,000. Each such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such other amount requested by the Issuer to which the Funding Agents consent). Reductions of the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this subsection 2.2(a) shall be allocated pro rata among the Bank Purchasers in accordance with each Bank Purchaser’s Funding Percentage. At any time, any Funding Agent may upon the request of the Residual Interest Owner and the consent of all of the other Funding Agents (which consent may be withheld in their sole discretion), increase the Commitments of the Bank Purchasers.
(b) On the Facility Termination Date, the Commitment of each Bank Purchaser shall be automatically reduced to zero.
(c) On the Closing Date, Branch Banking and Trust Company has executed an amended and restated Joinder Supplement (as defined below) and on the Closing Date is a LIBOR Bank Purchaser hereunder and the sole member of the Purchaser Group for which Branch Banking and Trust Company is the related Funding Agent. On the Closing Date, DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt am Main has executed a Joinder Supplement and on the Closing Date is a Cost of Funds Bank Purchaser hereunder and a member of the Purchaser Group for which Autobahn Funding Company LLC is also member and DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt am Main is the related Funding Agent. Also on the Closing Date, Autobahn Funding Company LLC executed a Joinder Supplement as a Conduit Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of subsections 8.1(a) and 8.1(b), any other Person may from time to time with the consent of the Funding Agents and the Issuer become a party to this Agreement as a Purchaser by (i) delivering to the Issuer an Investment Letter and (ii) entering into an agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B hereto (a “Joinder Supplement”), with the Funding Agents and the Issuer, acknowledged by the Servicer, which shall specify (A) the name and address of such Person for purposes of Section 9.2 hereof, (B) its Commitment, if any, (C) whether they are a LIBOR Bank Purchaser, a Cost of Funds Bank Purchaser or a Conduit Purchaser, (D) the other members of its Purchaser Group and its Funding Agent and (E) the other information provided for in such form of Joinder Supplement. Upon its receipt of a duly executed Joinder Supplement, the Funding Agents shall on the effective date determined pursuant thereto give notice of such effectiveness to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee.
(d) A Joinder Supplement may provide for a reduction in the Commitment of a Bank Purchaser if, in accordance with the terms thereof, proper notice is
- 3 -
delivered to the Funding Agents, the Issuer and the Servicer and consent of the Funding Agents is obtained. At any time such notice is received from a Bank Purchaser after the requisite consent is obtained, the Commitment of such Bank Purchaser shall be reduced as provided for therein.
(e) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (unless otherwise agreed by the Funding Agents), no more than 75 and no less than 45 days prior to the Commitment Expiration Date, the Issuer may request, through the Funding Agents, that each Purchaser extend the Commitment Expiration Date to a date which is up to 364 days after the Commitment Expiration Date then in effect, which decision will be made by each Purchaser in its sole discretion. Upon receipt of any such request, each Funding Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser in its Purchaser Group thereof. Within 10 Business Days of notice from its Funding Agent, each Purchaser shall notify the Funding Agent of its willingness or refusal to so extend the Commitment Expiration Date (the “Extension Notice Deadline”). Each Funding Agent shall notify the Issuer of such willingness or refusal by the Purchasers within five Business Days of the Extension Notice Deadline. If any Purchaser notifies its Funding Agent of its refusal to extend or does not expressly notify its Funding Agent that it is willing to extend the Commitment Expiration Date by the applicable Extension Notice Deadline (each a “Non-Extending Purchaser”), the Commitment Expiration Date shall not be so extended.
(f) From and after the Closing Date, the Maximum Facility Balance (the “Maximum Facility Balance”) and the Commitment of each Bank Purchaser shall be as follows:

- 4 -
(b) Bluegreen further agrees to pay on the Closing Date or, if later, within 10 days of such costs and expenses being invoiced to Bluegreen, to the Funding Agents all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration (including any requested amendments, waivers or consents of any of the Transaction Documents) of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees for each Funding Agent’s counsel and out-of-pocket expenses of each counsel for each Funding Agent with respect thereto, any costs incurred in connection with subsection 5.1(g) and with respect to a Conduit Purchaser, the costs and expenses of rating such Conduit Purchaser’s commercial paper by independent financial rating agencies which is allocable to commercial paper issued to fund advances hereunder.
(c) Bluegreen further agrees to pay to the Funding Agents, and following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default other than one arising from the failure of the Obligors to make payments on the Timeshare Loans, each Purchaser, promptly following presentation of an invoice therefor, all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), if any, in connection with the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, and the other documents delivered thereunder or in connection therewith.
(d) The Issuer agrees to pay to the Funding Agents, and following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Purchaser, promptly following presentation of an invoice therefor, all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), if any, in connection with the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, and the other documents delivered thereunder or in connection therewith.
(e) Bluegreen further agrees to pay on demand any and all documentary, stamp, transfer and other taxes and governmental fees payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of any of the Transaction Documents or the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder and thereunder or otherwise in connection with the issuance of the Notes, and agrees to save each Purchaser and each Funding Agent harmless from and against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or any omission to pay such taxes and fees.
(f) Periodic fees or other periodic amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated, unless otherwise specified in the Fee Letter, on the basis of a 360-day year and for the actual days elapsed.
(g) All payments to be made hereunder or under the Indenture, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the due date thereof to the Funding Agents’ accounts specified in subsection 9.2(b) hereof or directly to the Purchasers’ accounts if a Funding Agent so instructs the Indenture Trustee. Payments received after 1:00 p.m. New York City time shall be deemed to have been made on the next Business Day. In any event, each Funding Agent shall forward or instruct the Indenture Trustee to forward to the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group their respective portion of such payments in immediately
- 5 -
available funds for receipt no later than 3:00 p.m. New York City time on the date received. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any payment due hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the payment date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and in the case of principal, interest shall accrue thereon at the applicable rate during such extension. To the extent that (i) the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Issuer or the Servicer makes a payment to a Funding Agent or a Purchaser or (ii) a Funding Agent or a Purchaser receives or is deemed to have received any payment or proceeds for application to an obligation, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a Indenture Trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, state or Federal law, common law, or for equitable cause, then, to the extent such payment or proceeds are set aside, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received or deemed received by the Funding Agents or the Purchasers, as the case may be.
Section 2.4. Indemnification. (a) Bluegreen (the “Indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Funding Agent and each Purchaser and any shareholders, members, directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates thereof, of the Funding Agents or Purchasers (each such Person being referred to as an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses whatsoever (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) which such Indemnitee may incur (or which may be claimed against such Indemnitee) arising out of, by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery of, or payment or other performance under, or the failure to make payments or perform under, any Transaction Document or the issuance of the Notes (including in connection with the preparation for defense of any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with such execution, delivery, payment, performance or issuance), except (i) to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost or expense shall be caused by the willful misconduct, bad faith, recklessness or gross negligence of, or breach of any representation or warranty in any Transaction Document by, the Indemnitee requesting indemnification, (ii) to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost or expense is covered or addressed by subsection 2.3(c) or (d) hereof, (iii) to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost or expense relates to disclosure made by a Funding Agent requesting indemnification or a Purchaser requesting indemnification in connection with an Assignment or Participation pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof which disclosure is not based on information given to such Funding Agent or such Purchaser by or on behalf of Bluegreen, or any affiliate thereof or by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee or (iv) to the extent that such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost or expense shall be caused by any default in payment of any Timeshare Loan. The foregoing indemnity shall include any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to which any such Indemnitee may become subject under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or other federal or state law or regulation arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any disclosure document relating to the Notes or any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, in any case, provided or approved by the Issuer (other than statements provided by the Indemnitee requesting indemnification expressly for inclusion therein) or arising out of, or based upon, the omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading (other than with respect to statements provided by the Indemnitee expressly for
- 6 -
inclusion therein). For the avoidance of doubt, no Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.4 in respect of any Taxes or Excluded Taxes (each as defined in Section 6.3 hereof), the indemnification of which is addressed exclusively in Section 6.3 hereof.
(b) Promptly after the receipt by an Indemnitee of a notice of the commencement of any action against an Indemnitee, such Indemnitee will notify the Funding Agents and the Funding Agents will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an Indemnitor pursuant to subsection 2.4(a) hereof, notify such Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify such party will not relieve such party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnitee pursuant to the preceding paragraph except to the extent the Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure. If any such action is brought against an Indemnitee and it notifies an Indemnitor of its commencement, such Indemnitor will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it so elects by delivering written notice to the Indemnitee promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the Indemnitee to assume the defense of any such action, with a single counsel mutually satisfactory to such Indemnitor and each affected Indemnitee. After receipt of such notice by an Indemnitor from an Indemnitee, such Indemnitor will not be liable to such Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such action. Each Indemnitee will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of the such Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of such counsel by such Indemnitee has been authorized in writing by such Indemnitor, (ii) such Indemnitor shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel, (iii) the named parties to any such action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and either an Indemnitor or another person or entity that may be entitled to indemnification from an Indemnitor (by virtue of this Section 2.4 or otherwise) and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnitee which are different from or additional to those available to an Indemnitor or such other party or shall otherwise have reasonably determined that the co-representation would present such counsel with a conflict of interest (in which case the Indemnitor will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnitee). In any such case described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnitor; it being understood that in no event shall the Indemnitors be liable for the fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnitees in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An Indemnitor shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action, suit or proceeding effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with the written consent of an Indemnitor or if there shall be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, suit or proceeding, such Indemnitor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnitee to the extent set forth in this Agreement from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or reasonable expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnitor shall, without the prior written consent of an Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder, if such settlement, compromise or consent includes an admission of culpability or wrong-doing on the part of such Indemnitee or the entry or an order, injunction or other equitable or nonmonetary
- 7 -
relief (including any administrative or other sanctions or disqualifications) against such Indemnitee or if such settlement, compromise or consent does not include an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.
(c) The obligations of Bluegreen under this Agreement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the lack of validity or enforceability of, or any modification to, any Transaction Document nor the existence of any claim, setoff, defense (other than a defense of payment) or other right which Bluegreen may have at any time against a Funding Agent, any Purchaser or any other Person, whether in connection with any Transaction Document or any unrelated transactions, shall constitute a defense to such obligations.
Section 2.5. Funding Termination Event. If any Funding Termination Event shall occur and be continuing, (a) if such event is a Funding Termination Event specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (d) of the definition thereof or paragraphs (d) and (e) of the definition of Event of Default, the Commitment of each Bank Purchaser shall automatically be reduced to zero, and (b) if such event is any other Funding Termination Event, with the consent of the Required Purchasers, the Funding Agents may, or upon the request of the Required Purchasers, the Funding Agents shall, by notice to the Issuer, reduce the Commitments of each Bank Purchaser to zero, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately be reduced to zero.
Section 2.6. Notification of Note Rate.
(a) On the third Business Day immediately preceding each Determination Date, each Funding Agent shall calculate the related Note Rate in order to estimate the allocable portion of the Interest Distribution Amount for the related upcoming Payment Date applicable to its Notes for the applicable Interest Accrual Period and shall notify the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer of such rate and amount by written notice. Such rate and amount shall be calculated using an estimate of the applicable Note Rate, if necessary, for the remaining days in such Interest Accrual Period. The Funding Agents shall consult with the Conduit Purchasers in the determination of the CP Note Rate.
(b) On or before the third Business Day immediately preceding each Determination Date, if a Funding Agent shall have used an estimate of the applicable Note Rate in order to calculate the Interest Distribution Amount with respect to the immediately preceding Payment Date, such Funding Agent shall compute the actual related Note Rate and Interest Distribution Amount applicable to the Notes for the Interest Accrual Period related to such immediately preceding Payment Date, and if the actual Interest Distribution Amount so computed (i) is greater than the estimated Interest Distribution Amount for such preceding Interest Accrual Period, the Interest Distribution Amount so calculated for the upcoming Payment Date shall be increased by the amount of such difference (such difference, the “Conduit Component Shortfall”) and (ii) is less than the estimated Interest Distribution Amount for such preceding Interest Accrual Period, the Interest Distribution Amount so calculated for the upcoming Payment Date shall be decreased by the amount of such difference.

SECTION VI. INCREASED COSTS, INCREASED CAPITAL, TAXES, ETC.
Section 6.1. Increased Costs. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.4 hereof, if, due to either (a) the introduction of or any change (including any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or the imposition of any guideline of any accounting board or authority (whether or not part of government) which is responsible for the establishment or interpretation of national or international accounting principles, in each case whether foreign or domestics, including, without limitation, any Change in Law or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), after the Closing Date, there shall be an increase in the cost to the Funding Agent or any Purchaser (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any investment in the Notes or any interest therein or of agreeing to purchase or invest in the Notes or any interest therein, or to provide liquidity or credit support to a Conduit Purchaser, as the case may be (other than by reason of any interpretation of or change in laws or regulations relating to Taxes (as defined in Section 6.3 below) or Excluded Taxes (as defined in Section 6.3 below)), the Issuer shall, upon written demand by such Affected Party (with a copy to the
- 25 -
Funding Agents), direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to pay to such Affected Party that portion of such increased costs incurred which such Affected Party reasonably determines is attributable to making, funding or maintaining any investment in the Notes or any interest therein or agreeing to purchase or invest in the Notes or any interest therein or to provide liquidity or credit support to a Conduit Purchaser, as the case may be. In determining such amount, such Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods, consistent with the averaging and attribution methods generally used by such Affected Party in determining amounts of this type. A certificate as to such increased costs incurred submitted to the Issuer and the Funding Agents, setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall be prima facie evidence as to the amount of such increased costs. Any Affected Party that incurs such increased costs as described in this Section 6.1 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to take such steps as would eliminate or reduce the amount of such increased costs; provided that no such steps shall be required to be taken if, in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Party, such steps would be disadvantageous to such Affected Party. Each Funding Agent agrees to use reasonable efforts to give notice to the Issuer and Bluegreen of any Change in Law or the imposition of any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority after the Closing Date, that would increase the costs to a Purchaser for which the Funding Agent has actual knowledge.
Section 6.2. Increased Capital. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.4 hereof, if either (a) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, directive or request, including, without limitation, any Change in Law or (b) the compliance by any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law) or any guideline of any accounting board or authority (whether or not part of government) which is responsible for the establishment or interpretation of national or international accounting principles, in each case whether foreign or domestic, including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, but excluding, in all cases, any interpretation, application or change in law relating to Taxes (as defined in Section 6.3 below) or Excluded Taxes (as defined in Section 6.3 below), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party after the Closing Date, as a consequence of (i) the existence of such Affected Party’s agreement to make or maintain an investment in the Notes or any interest therein or to provide liquidity or credit support to a Conduit Purchaser or (ii) the existence of any agreement by such Affected Party to make or maintain an investment in the Notes or any interest therein or to fund any such investment or arising in connection herewith to a level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to time, upon written demand by such Affected Party (with a copy to the Funding Agents), the Issuer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to pay to the Affected Party, such additional amounts as specified by such Affected Party, sufficient to compensate such Affected Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Affected Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocated to the existence of such Affected Party’s agreements described in clause (i) or (ii) above. In determining such amounts, such Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods, consistent with the averaging and distribution methods generally used by such Affected Party in determining amounts of this type. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Issuer by
- 26 -
such Affected Party setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts so owed. Any Affected Party that is entitled to compensation for increases in capital as described in this Section 6.2 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to take such steps as would eliminate or reduce the amount of such compensation; provided that no such steps shall be required to be taken if, in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Party, such steps would be disadvantageous to such Affected Party. Each Funding Agent agrees to use reasonable efforts to give notice to the Issuer and Bluegreen of any Change in Law or the imposition of any guidance or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority after the Closing Date, that would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by a Purchaser for which the Funding Agent has actual knowledge.
Section 6.3. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments and deposits required to be made hereunder or under the Indenture to or for the benefit of a Purchaser shall be made, to the extent allowed by law, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed on, or measured by reference to, the net income of such Purchaser, franchise taxes imposed on such Purchaser, and taxes (other than withholding taxes), levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed on the receipt or gross receipts of such Purchaser by any of (i) the United States or any State thereof, (ii) the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Purchaser is organized, with which it has a present or former connection (other than solely by reason of this Agreement), or in which it is otherwise doing business or (iii) any political subdivision thereof (all such excluded items being referred to as “Excluded Taxes” and all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities other than Excluded Taxes being referred to as “Taxes”). If the Indenture Trustee, as directed by a Funding Agent, shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum required to be paid or deposited hereunder or under any instrument delivered hereunder to or for the benefit of a Purchaser (A) subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 hereof, such sum shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums required to be paid or deposited under this Section 6.3) the amount received by such Purchaser, or otherwise deposited hereunder or under such instrument, shall be equal to the sum which would have been so received or deposited had no such deductions been made, (B) the Indenture Trustee, as directed by a Funding Agent, shall make such deductions and (C) the Indenture Trustee, as directed by a Funding Agent, shall pay the full amount of such deductions to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable laws.
(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 hereof, the Issuer shall direct the Indenture Trustee to indemnify each Purchaser for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 6.3) paid by such Purchaser due to the modification of or any change in or in the interpretation or administration by any governmental or regulatory agency or body charged with the interpretation or administration of any law or regulation relating to Taxes after the Closing Date (including penalties, interest and expenses) and arising therefrom or required to be paid with respect thereto. Each Purchaser agrees to promptly notify its Funding Agent and the Issuer of any payment of such Taxes made by it for which it is entitled to indemnification
- 27 -
hereunder and, if practicable, any request, demand or notice received in respect thereof prior to such payment. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to payment of this indemnification within 30 days from the date such Purchaser makes written demand therefor to its Funding Agent and the Issuer. A certificate as to the amount of such indemnification submitted to its Funding Agent and the Issuer by such Purchaser setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the calculation thereof, shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts so owed.
(c) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Indenture Trustee will furnish to the Funding Agents the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(d)
(i) Each Purchaser and each Funding Agent that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, or, in the case of an Assignee, the effective date of the applicable Assignment, deliver to the Issuer, each Funding Agent and the Indenture Trustee (in the case of a Purchaser) and to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (in the case each Funding Agent) executed originals of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form thereto).
(ii) Each Purchaser (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Assignee thereof) and each Funding Agent, in each case, that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States or a state thereof hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer, each Funding Agent and the Indenture Trustee (in the case of a Purchaser or Assignee) and to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (in the case of each Funding Agent) from time to time prior to the date on which such Purchaser or Funding Agent will be entitled to receive distributions pursuant to the Indenture or this Agreement, executed Internal Revenue Service W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8IMY (with all required associated documentation) (or any successor forms), as applicable, or such other forms or certificates as may be required under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction in order to permit the Indenture Trustee to make payments to, and deposit funds to or for the account of, such Purchaser or Funding Agent hereunder and under the Indenture and this Agreement without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any tax or to otherwise establish the applicable rate of deduction or withholding.
(iii) Each Purchaser and Funding Agent agrees to provide, to the extent permitted by law, like additional subsequent duly executed forms on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete, or upon the occurrence of any event requiring an amendment, resubmission or change in the most recent form previously delivered by it and to provide such extensions or renewals as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer. Each Purchaser and Funding Agent further agrees that compliance with this subsection 6.3(d) (including by reason of Section 8.1 hereof in the case of any assignment, sale or other transfer of any interest in the Notes) is a condition to the payment of any amount otherwise due pursuant to subsections 6.3(a) and (b) hereof.
(e) Each Purchaser, as of the Closing Date, and each other Purchaser, as of the date such Person becomes a Purchaser entitled to receive distributions pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture (such date, its “Assignment Date”),
- 28 -
hereby represents and warrants to the Issuer that it is not subject to Taxes in respect of any sum required to be paid or deposited under this Agreement, the Indenture or under any instrument delivered pursuant to any of them to or for the benefit of such Purchaser, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Transaction Document, no Purchaser shall be entitled to any gross up or indemnity under this Section 6.3 or under any other Transaction Document in respect of Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Purchaser which are imposed pursuant to a law in effect on the Closing Date or its Assignment Date, as the case may be, or if any Purchaser changes its Investing Office, on the date of such change in its Investing Office. Further, no Purchaser shall be entitled to any gross up or indemnity under this Section 6.3 or under any other Transaction Document in respect of any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the date of this Agreement (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof and any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code.
(f) Any Purchaser entitled to the payment of any additional amount pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall use its best efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to take such steps as would eliminate or reduce the amount of such payment; provided that no such steps shall be required to be taken if, in the reasonable judgment of such Purchaser, such steps would be materially disadvantageous to such Purchaser.
Section 6.4. Nonrecourse Obligations; Limited Recourse. Notwithstanding any provision in any other Section of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents to the contrary, the obligation of the Issuer to pay any amounts payable to the Purchasers or the Funding Agents pursuant to this Agreement shall be without recourse to Bluegreen, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate, officer or director of any of them and the obligation to pay any amounts hereunder shall be limited solely to the application of the Trust Estate, to the extent that such amounts are available for distribution.
Section 6.5. Breakage. Subject to Section 6.4 hereof, if for any reason (other than a default by a Conduit Purchaser in failing to advance proceeds of commercial paper actually raised for such Borrowing) a Borrowing does not take place on the Funding Date specified in a Borrowing Notice (a “Defaulted Borrowing Date”), the Issuer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to pay such Conduit Purchaser’s Funding Agent for the benefit of such Conduit Purchaser, an amount equal to all interest (at the applicable CP Rate) that would have accrued had the Borrowing occurred hereunder on, through and including the day on which the aggregate principal component of Allocated Commercial Paper for such Conduit Purchaser will mature on or after the Defaulted Borrowing Date (such date, the “Funding Maturity Date”); provided, that, if the Issuer is in compliance with the foregoing requirements, such Conduit Purchaser shall, on the applicable Funding Maturity Date, make a payment to the Issuer in an amount equal to the income (less the reasonable costs and expenses of obtaining such income), if any, actually received by such Conduit Purchaser from investing the aggregate component of Allocated Commercial Paper for the period from the Defaulted Borrowing Date until such Funding Maturity Date.
