Timeshare Loan. No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the
Issuer, 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 Timeshare Loans to
be made pursuant to the terms hereof shall constitute a sale by the Depositor to
the Issuer and not a loan secured by the 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, it is the intention of the parties hereto
that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Issuer as of the date
hereof a first priority perfected security interest in all of Depositor'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 loans, 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 Depositor as "debtor" and the Issuer 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 to the Issuer
of such Depositor's entire right, title and interest in and to the Assets.
Each of the Club Trustee, Club Trust, the Depositor and any of their
Affiliates hereby agrees to make the appropriate entries in its general
accounting records and to indicate that the Timeshare Loans have been
transferred to the Indenture Trustee and constitute part of the Issuer's estate
in accordance with the terms of the Trust created under the Trust Agreement.
SECTION 4. Conditions Precedent to Acquisition of Timeshare Loans by
the Issuer. The obligations of the Issuer to purchase any Timeshare Loans
hereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee to establish and preserve the right, title and interest of the Issuer or
the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, in the related Timeshare Loans.

(i) Due Incorporation; Valid Existence; Good Standing. The
Depositor 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

failure to be so qualified will not have a material adverse effect on the
business of the Depositor 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.

This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents and instruments
required or contemplated hereby to be executed and delivered by the

Depositor and, assuming the due execution and delivery by, the other party
or parties hereto and thereto, constitute legal, valid and binding

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
Depositor 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 Depositor's interest in

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

(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 the Depositor

good faith through appropriate proceedings or except where the failure to

interests of the Issuer or any of its subsequent assignees. The Depositor

Section 5 which are made to the Depositor'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 Issuer
or any subsequent assignee thereof, then notwithstanding the 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 Depositor 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 Timeshare Loan or the interests of the Issuer
or any subsequent assignee of the Issuer (including the Indenture Trustee on
behalf of the Noteholders) therein, the Depositor 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 Issuer's interest in such Defective Timeshare Loan
from the Issuer at the Repurchase Price or (ii) provide one or more Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans and pay the related Substitution Shortfall Amounts,
if any. It is understood and agreed that the Depositor shall have the right and
will enforce such right to require the Club Originator to repurchase or
substitute a Defective Timeshare Loan in the event of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties in Section 5 hereof which materially and
adversely affects the value of a Timeshare Loan or the interests of the Issuer
or any subsequent assignee of the Issuer (including the Indenture Trustee on
behalf of the Noteholders) in accordance with the provisions of the Transfer
Agreements and Purchase Agreement.
(b) Optional Purchases or Substitutions of Club Loans. The Issuer
acknowledges that pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and each Transfer
Agreement, the Depositor has irrevocably granted the Club Originator any options
to repurchase or replace Original Club Loans it has thereunder. The Issuer
acknowledges that with respect any Original Club Loans for which the Club
Originator and the related Obligor have elected to effect an Upgrade, the Club
Originator 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 Club Originator's option to
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for an Original Club
Loan is limited on any date to (x) 20% of the sum of the Aggregate Closing Date
Collateral Balance less (y) the Loan Balances of all Original Club Loans
previously substituted by the Club Originator on the related substitution dates
pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the Transfer Agreements.
In addition, the Issuer acknowledges that the Club Originator shall use best
efforts to exercise its substitution option with respect to Original Club Loans
prior to exercise of its repurchase option and to the extent that the Club
Originator shall elect to substitute Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for an
Original Club Loan, the Club Originator 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 Issuer acknowledges that pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and each
Transfer Agreement, the Depositor has irrevocably granted the Club Originator
any options to repurchase or substitute Defaulted Timeshare Loans it has
thereunder. With respect to any Defaulted Timeshare Loans, on any date, the Club
Originator will have the option, but not the obligation, to either (i) purchase
a Defaulted Timeshare Loan subject to the lien of the Indenture at the
Repurchase Price for such Defaulted Timeshare Loan or (ii) substitute one or
more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for such Defaulted Timeshare Loan and
pay the related Substitution Shortfall Amounts, if any; provided, however, that
the Club Originator's option to purchase a Defaulted Timeshare Loan or to
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for a Defaulted
Timeshare Loan is limited on any date to the Optional Purchase Limit and the
Optional Substitution Limit, respectively. The Club Originator may irrevocably
waive its option to purchase or substitute a Defaulted Timeshare Loan by
delivering or causing to deliver 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 Issuer hereby directs and the Depositor 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 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 Issuer hereby directs and the
Depositor 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
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 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 Issuer hereby directs and the Depositor 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 Depositor does hereby transfer,
assign, sell and grant to the Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in
Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), any and all of the Depositor's right, title and
interest in and to (i) each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan conveyed to the
Issuer 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, (v) the Depositor's rights and remedies under the
related Purchase Agreement and Transfer Agreement with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loan, and (vi) 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 Issuer, its successors and
assigns. The Depositor 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 Depositor agrees that such Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement
and shall thereafter be deemed a "Timeshare Loan" for the purposes of this
Agreement.
(g) Officer's Certificate. The Depositor shall, on each related
Transfer Date, certify or cause to be certified in writing to 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 Depositor 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 Timeshare Loans contemplated by this Section 6, upon
satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Section 6, 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 Depositor, in each case, without recourse, as shall be necessary to
vest in the Depositor or its designee the legal and beneficial ownership of such
Timeshare Loans. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian
to release the related Timeshare Loan Files to the Depositor or its designee and
the Servicer to release the related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the
Depositor or its designee.
(j) Sole Remedy. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of
the Depositor contained in Section 6(a) to cure a material breach, or to
repurchase or substitute Defective Timeshare Loans and the obligation of the
Depositor to indemnify pursuant to Section 8, shall constitute the sole remedies
available to the Issuer or its subsequent assignees for the breaches of any of
its representation or warranty contained in Section 5, and such remedies are not
intended to and do not constitute "credit recourse" to the Depositor.
SECTION 7. Additional Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor
hereby covenants and agrees with the Issuer as follows:
(a) The Depositor shall comply with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations and orders applicable to it and its business and properties except
where the failure to comply will not have a material adverse effect on the
business of the Depositor 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.
(b) The Depositor 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 the business of the Depositor 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 or prior to the Closing Date or a Transfer Date, as
applicable, the Depositor shall indicate in its and its Affiliates' computer
files and other records that each Timeshare Loan has been sold to the Issuer.

ownership of a Timeshare Loan by stating that such Timeshare Loan has been sold
to the Issuer and that the Issuer is the owner of such Timeshare Loan.
(e) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall file or
cause to be filed, at its own expense, financing statements in favor of the
Issuer, and, if applicable, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders,
with respect to the Timeshare Loans, meeting the requirements of state law in
such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary or appropriate to perfect
the acquisition of such Timeshare Loans by the Issuer from the Depositor, and
shall deliver file-stamped copies of such financing statements to the Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders.
(f) The Depositor agrees from time to time, at its own expense, to
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take
all further actions, that may be necessary, or that the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the
sale of the Timeshare Loans to the Issuer, or to enable the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder or
under any Timeshare Loan including, but not limited to, powers of attorney, UCC
financing statements and assignments of mortgage. The Depositor hereby appoints
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 Depositor under this Section 7(f).
(g) Any change in the legal name of the Depositor 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 Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee in writing.
(h) Upon the discovery or receipt of notice by a Responsible Officer
of the Depositor of a breach of any of its representations or warranties and
covenants contained herein,
the Depositor shall promptly disclose to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee,
in reasonable detail, the nature of such breach.
(i) In the event that the Depositor shall receive any payments in
respect of a Timeshare Loan after the Closing Date or Transfer Date, as
applicable (including any insurance proceeds that are not payable to the related
Obligor), the Depositor shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt, transfer
or cause to be transferred, such payments to the Lockbox Account.
(j) In the event that the Depositor or the Issuer or any assignee of
the Issuer should receive actual notice of any transfer taxes arising out of the
transfer, assignment and conveyance of a Timeshare Loan to the Issuer, on
written demand by the Issuer, or upon the Depositor otherwise being given notice
thereof, the Depositor shall pay, and otherwise indemnify and hold the Issuer,
or any subsequent assignee harmless, on an after-tax basis, from and against any
and all such transfer taxes.
(k) The Depositor will keep its principal place of business and
chief executive office and the office where it keeps its records concerning the

(l) The Depositor authorizes the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to
file continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to the Timeshare
Loans and all payments made with regard to the related Timeshare Loans without
the signature of the Depositor where permitted by law. A photocopy or other
reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement
where permitted by law. The Issuer 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.
(a) The Depositor agrees to indemnify the Issuer, the 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 Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Initial Purchaser may sustain directly
related to any breach of the representations and warranties of the Depositor
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 Timeshare Loan not related to a breach of representation or
warranty; (iii) recourse to the Depositor 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 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 Depositor shall (A) promptly notify the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee if a claim is made by a third party with
respect to this Agreement or the Timeshare Loans, and
relating to (i) the failure by the Depositor to perform its duties in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) a breach of the Depositor's
representations, covenants and warranties contained in this Agreement, (B)
assume (with the consent of 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 Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Initial Purchaser in respect of such
claim. If the Depositor shall have made any indemnity payment pursuant to this
Section 8 and the recipient thereafter collects from another Person any amount
relating to the matters covered by the foregoing indemnity, the recipient shall
promptly repay such amount to the Depositor.
(b) The obligations of the Depositor under this Section 8 to
indemnify the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Initial
Purchaser shall survive the termination of this Agreement and continue until the
Notes are paid in full or otherwise released or discharged.
SECTION 9. No Proceedings. The Depositor hereby agrees that it will
not, directly or indirectly, institute, or cause to be instituted, or join any
Person in instituting, against the Issuer 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.
SECTION 10. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications
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

interest in favor of any other Person;
(g) the Timeshare Loan (other than an Aruba Loan) is secured directly by
a first priority Mortgage on the related purchased Timeshare

(h) with respect to each Club Loan, the Timeshare Property mortgaged by

property for a specified number of days each year or every other
year; the related Mortgage has been delivered for filing and
recordation with all appropriate governmental authorities in all

to the Timeshare Property related to such Timeshare Loan, free and
clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens;
(k) the related Mortgage (or, in the case of an Aruba Loan, the related
Finance Agreement) contains customary and enforceable provisions so
