Trustee is the assignee or endorsee), whether any document has been
recorded in accordance with the requirements of any applicable
jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is permitted in any
applicable jurisdiction, whether any Person executing any document is
authorized to do so or whether any signature thereon is genuine, but shall
only be required to determine whether a document has been executed, that it
appears to be what it purports to be, and, where applicable, that it
purports to be recorded.
Section 2.4. Acceptance by Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee hereby
acknowledges the sale and assignment of the Receivables. If the Seller or the
Servicer is given notice under Section 2.1(b) or 2.2(b) of a breach of a
representation as provided therein and if the Seller does not correct or cure
such omission or defect within the 30-day or 60-day period specified in Section
2.1(b) or 2.2(b), as the case may be, the Seller shall purchase such Receivable

Seller or the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall release to
the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, the related Receivables Document and
the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver a release of lien in the form of
Exhibit G hereto. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller

breach exists pursuant to Section 2.2(b) shall constitute the sole remedy
hereunder against the Seller respecting such defect or omission available to the
Depositor, the Issuer, the Owners and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of Owners.
The Servicer (provided that Bluegreen Corporation or its Affiliate is the

Balance as of the related Cut-Off Date for the Receivables being transferred to
the Asset Pool on any Business Day plus any Deposit Amount shall not be less

shall include a Subsequent List of Receivables listing the Additional

(iv) after giving effect to such conveyance, the Additional

Disk and Records that the Additional Receivables identified on the
Subsequent List of Receivables in the Addition Agreement or
Substitution Agreement as applicable, have been sold to the Trust
through the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement.
Upon satisfaction of the preceding conditions in connection with any
replacement of existing Receivables in the Asset Pool with substitute
Receivables effected in accordance with this Section 2.5, the Indenture Trustee
shall, automatically and without further action, be deemed to transfer to the
Depositor, free and clear of any Lien created pursuant to this Agreement or the
-38-
Indenture, all of the right, title and interest of the Issuer in, to and under
the related Replaced Receivable and the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to

(d) to withdraw any funds deposited in the Note Account that were not
required to be deposited therein or were deposited therein in error and to
pay such funds to the appropriate Person; and
(e) to clear and terminate the Note Account upon the termination of
this Agreement and to pay any amounts remaining therein to the Certificate
Distribution Account.
The Servicer shall be permitted to withdraw amounts from the Note Account for
the purposes set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d), out of proceeds of the
related Receivable.
Section 4.4. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Property Protection Expenses.
Provided that Bluegreen Corporation or its Affiliate is the Servicer, the
Servicer shall cause to be maintained with respect to each Receivable one or
more Standard Hazard Insurance Policies that provide, at a minimum, the same
coverage as that provided by a standard form fire and extended coverage
insurance policy that is customary for resort timeshares, providing coverage in
an amount at least equal to the lesser of (1) the maximum insurable value of the
-49-
related Interval or (2) the principal balance due from the Obligor under such
Receivable; provided, however, that in any event the amount of coverage provided
by each Standard Hazard Insurance Policy must be sufficient to avoid the
application of any co-insurance clause contained therein. As part of its
collection responsibilities, the Servicer shall proceed to collect the premiums
due on the Standard Hazard Insurance Policies from the Obligors in accordance
with the Servicing Standard. Each Standard Hazard Insurance Policy caused to be
maintained by the Servicer shall contain a standard loss payee clause in favor
of the Servicer and its successors and assigns. Any amounts received under any
such policies in respect of the Receivables shall be deposited initially into
the Note Account within one Business Day of receipt.
Section 4.5. Fidelity Bond. Provided that Bluegreen Corporation or its
Affiliate is the Servicer, the Servicer shall keep in force throughout the term
of this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance issued by a Qualified
Insurer covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as
Servicer hereunder, including failure to maintain insurance as required by this
Agreement, and a fidelity bond in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000
covering the Servicer's performance under this Agreement. Such policy or
policies and bond shall be in such form and amount as is generally customary
among Persons that service pools of timeshare receivables and which Persons are
generally regarded as servicers acceptable to institutional investors. The
Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Agent a
certificate of insurance with respect to such fidelity bond and insurance
policy.
Section 4.6. Indenture Trustee to Cooperate. Provided that Bluegreen
Corporation or its Affiliate is the Servicer, upon any payment of the
outstanding principal balance thereof in full or other satisfaction of a
Receivable in accordance with the Credit Policy, the Servicer is authorized to
execute, pursuant to the authorization contained in Section 4.1(b), an
instrument of satisfaction regarding the related Mortgage, which instrument of
satisfaction shall be recorded by the Servicer if required by applicable law and
be delivered to the Person entitled thereto. It is understood and agreed that no
expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or transfer
shall be reimbursed from amounts deposited in the Note Account. If the Indenture
Trustee or the Custodian is holding the Receivables Documents, from time to time
and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Receivable, the
Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, shall, upon request of
the Servicer and delivery to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, as the case
may be, of a Request for Release, in the form attached as Exhibit D to the
Custodial Agreement, signed by a Servicing Officer, release the related
Receivables Document to the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee shall execute
such documents in the forms provided by the Servicer, as shall be necessary for
the prosecution of any such proceedings or the taking of other servicing
actions. Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return the
Receivables Document to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian when the need
therefor by the Servicer no longer exists unless the Receivable shall be
liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer
similar to that herein above specified, the Request for Release shall be
released by the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian holding such Request for
Release to the Servicer.
Section 4.7. Servicing Compensation; Payment of Certain Expenses by
Servicer. Provided that Bluegreen Corporation or its Affiliate is the Servicer,
the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee as compensation for
its services in connection with servicing the Receivables. Moreover, additional
servicing compensation in the form of prepayment penalties,
-50-
late payment charges, bad check charges or assumption fees or other receipts not
required to be deposited in the Note Account and, subject to Section 4.2(b),
investment income on the Note Account shall be retained by the Servicer. The
Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with
its activities hereunder (including payment of all other fees and expenses not
expressly stated hereunder to be for the account of the Issuer or the Owners)
and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically
provided herein.
Section 4.8. Annual Statement as to Compliance.
(a) The Servicer (in the event the Servicer is Bluegreen or an
Affiliate thereof) will deliver to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee, on

time or both, would become a Servicer Termination Event.
(c) Annual Servicing Report.
(i) The Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized
independent certified public accountants (the "Independent

Trustee beginning on or about March 31, 2002, or April 30, 2002 with
respect to the Backup Service), with respect to the twelve months
ended the immediately preceding March 31, 2002 (or other applicable
date), a statement (the "Accountant's Report") addressed to the Board

(1) was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting
records and such other auditing procedures as such firm
considered necessary in the circumstances; and
(2) so long as the Backup Servicer is not the Servicer, included an
examination of documents and records relating to the servicing of
the Receivables and the related Assets under this Agreement.
(ii) The Accountant's Report shall further state that (so long as
the Backup Servicer is not the Servicer):

Accountants.
Section 4.9. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the

hours and as often as may be reasonably requested, permit any agents or
representatives of the Agent to inspect the Resorts and Additional Resorts and

records) relating thereto, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the
records and books of account of the Servicer or the Time Share Association (to
the extent controlled by the Servicer) or serviced under this Agreement and to
discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with any of its officers, employees
or independent public accountants. The Servicer acknowledges that the Agent
intends to conduct such audits and inspections on at least an annual basis. The
Servicer shall make available to the Agent all credit information in the
Servicer's possession or under the Servicer's control with respect to Obligors
as the Agent may reasonably request. Upon the Agent's request, Servicer shall
furnish to Agent evidence of payment of all real estate taxes relating to the
Resorts and Additional Resorts (except if the Backup Servicer becomes the
Servicer and does not possess such information). The Servicer (to the extent
Bluegreen or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer hereunder) shall be required
to pay all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Agent for any and
all Resorts and Additional Resorts inspections, audits and any other diligence
relating to Servicer's finances or books or records.
Section 4.10. Payment of Taxes Insurance and Other Charges. With respect to
each Receivable, the Servicer shall not be required to maintain records relating
to payment of taxes or insurance.
Section 4.11. Optional Purchase of Defaulted Receivables. Provided that
Bluegreen Corporation or its Affiliate is the Servicer, with respect to any
Defaulted Receivable, the Servicer shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to elect (by written notice sent to the Indenture Trustee) (i) to purchase such
Defaulted Receivable from the Issuer at the Repurchase Price, for its own
account, in the manner specified in Section 2.4 or (ii) to substitute one or
more Receivables for such Defaulted Receivable in the manner specified in
Section 2.5, in each case provided that no Borrowing Base Deficiency exists and
the Transfer Condition remains satisfied. The Repurchase Price for any
Receivable purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the Note Account. The
Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of such deposit, shall execute a release or
cause to be released to the purchaser of such Receivable the related Receivables
Document and shall execute a release of lien in the form of Exhibit G hereto and
the purchaser of such Receivable shall succeed to all the Issuer's right, title
and interest in and to such Receivable and all security and documents related
thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security.
The purchaser of such Receivable shall thereupon own such Receivable, and all
-52-
security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Indenture Trustee
or the Owners with respect thereto.
Section 4.12. Monthly Report. For each Collection Period during the term of
this Agreement, Servicer will prepare the following standard industry reports
and submit them to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee no later than the second
Business Day prior to the related Payment Date (collectively, the "Monthly
Report"), a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit L.
The Monthly Report shall be accompanied by an Officer's Certificate,
certifying the accuracy of the Monthly Report and that no Servicer Termination
Event or event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a Servicer
Termination Event has occurred, or if such event has occurred and is continuing,
specifying the event and its status; provided however that this subparagraph of
Section 4.12 shall not apply if the Backup Servicer is acting as Servicer
hereunder.
Section 4.13. Sales and Inventory Reports. Provided that the Backup
Servicer is not the Servicer, a quarterly report showing all sales and
cancellations of sales of Intervals on Resorts and Additional Resorts on a
resort by resort basis, in form and content reasonably satisfactory to the
Agent; and within thirty (30) Business Days after the end of each fiscal year an
annual sales and inventory report for the Resorts and Additional Resorts
detailing the sales of all Intervals on a resort by resort basis during such
fiscal year and the available inventory of Units and Intervals, certified by the
Servicer to be true, correct and complete and otherwise in the form approved by
the Trust.
Section 4.14. Quarterly Financial Reports. Within forty-five (45) days
after the end of each of Servicer's (provided the Servicer is Bluegreen or an
Affiliate thereof) first three fiscal quarterly periods each year (or, if later,
that date by which Bluegreen is required to file financial statements with the
Securities and Exchange Commission), unaudited financial statements of Servicer
(provided the Servicer is Bluegreen or an Affiliate thereof) certified by its
chief financial officer as well as, to the extent requested by the Agent and
available to Servicer (provided the Servicer is Bluegreen or an Affiliate
thereof), unaudited bi-annual financial statements of the Time Share
Association.
Section 4.15.
Section 4.16. Audit Reports. To the extent Bluegreen or its Affiliate is

may reasonably require.
Section 4.18. SEC Reports. To the extent Bluegreen Corporation or its
Affiliate is the Servicer, promptly upon their becoming publicly available one
(1) copy of each financial
-53-
statement, report, notice or proxy statement sent by Servicer to security
holders generally, and of each regular or periodic report and any registration
statement, prospectus or written communication (other than transmittal letters)
in respect thereof filed by Servicer with, or received by Servicer in connection
therewith from, any securities exchange or the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any successor agency.
Section 4.19. Servicer Remarketing. To the extent Bluegreen Corporation or
its Affiliate is the Servicer, the Servicer shall be obligated to use
commercially reasonable efforts to remarket the Intervals related to Defaulted
Receivables. The Servicer shall not, with respect to the remarketing of the
Intervals associated with the Defaulted Receivables and related Assets, make any
"adverse selection" (i.e. the Servicer shall remarket the Intervals relating to
Assets with the same degree of care as Servicer's own portfolio of Intervals)
with respect to such Assets vis-a-vis other receivables serviced by the
Servicer. The Servicer (if Bluegreen Corporation or its Affiliate is acting as
Servicer) on behalf of the Trust and at the discretion of the Agent, shall take
all necessary steps to have the record title of the applicable Resort Interests
subject to such Defaulted Receivables continue to be held by the Club Trustee.
In such event, the Servicer shall direct the Club Trustee, directly or through
its agents to exercise the remedies provided for in the Club Trust Agreement, in
the Receivables themselves or in the other Club documents with respect to such
Defaulted Receivables and the obligors thereunder and the Servicer will remarket
the "Owner Beneficiary Rights" (as defined in the Club Trust Agreement) of the
obligors under such Defaulted Receivables with the purpose of effecting a
recovery in respect of such Defaulted Receivables or finding replacements
therefor. The Servicer, at the request of the Agent, shall reserve its rights
under the Club Trust Agreement and/or the applicable Mortgages to obtain, at any
time, record title and all beneficial interests in respect of the Intervals
related to Defaulted Receivables. All actions taken by the Servicer in respect
of any Defaulted Receivable shall, at all times, be carried out in a manner such
that none of the Trust, the Agent, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
shall, under applicable law, be deemed to be the developer or declarant of any
Resort, Additional Resort or the Club. The Servicer shall deposit the proceeds
associated with the remarketing of the Interval related to a Defaulted
Receivable into the Lock-Box Account and shall be paid the "Remarketing Fee"
associated with such Interval from the proceeds of the remarketing thereof
pursuant to Section 3.2 or pursuant to the Servicer Purchase Option. The
Servicer (in the event the Servicer is Bluegreen or an Affiliate thereof other
than the Depositor) shall at all times have the right (but not the obligation)
to utilize the Servicer Purchase Option in lieu of performing the remarketing
functions set forth in this Section.
Section 4.20. Administrative Duties of the Issuer. The Servicer will
monitor all of the administrative duties of the Issuer pursuant to the Operative
Documents, and advise the Issuer of all actions required to be taken pursuant
thereto. In this regard, the Servicer will prepare or cause to be prepared for
execution and deliver to the Issuer any and all forms, reports, notices or other
documents required of the Issuer pursuant to the Operative Documents. The Backup
Servicer shall have no responsibility for any duties under this Section 4.20;
the Depositor shall assume the duties of the Servicer under this Section 4.20
upon any termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.1.
Section 4.21. Financial Covenants of the Servicer. So long as the Servicer
is Bluegreen, the Servicer makes the following covenants:
-54-
(a) Minimum Tangible Net Worth. The Servicer agrees to maintain a
minimum Tangible Net Worth of $110,000,000 plus 50% of Net Income and 100%
of New Equity.
(b) Leverage Ratio. The Servicer agrees to maintain a Leverage Ratio
of no more than 6:1.
(c) On any Determination Date, (A) the 3 month rolling average
Delinquency Ratio (Serviced) exceeds 8.0% or (B) the 3 month rolling
average Default Ratio (Serviced) exceeds 10.0%.
Section 4.22. Backup Servicer.
(a) Prior to assuming any of the Servicer's rights and obligations
hereunder the Backup Servicer shall only be responsible to perform those
duties and for only those obligations specifically imposed upon it by the
provisions of the Backup Servicing Agreement herein, and shall have no
obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party,
including but not limited to the various agreements named herein.
In the event of the Termination of the Backup Servicing Agreement, the
Servicer shall appoint a successor Backup Servicer reasonably acceptable to the
Agent and the Seller.
(b) The Servicer shall have no liability, direct or indirect, to any
party, for the acts or omissions of the Backup Servicer, whenever such acts
or omissions occur whenever such liability is imposed.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Agent shall
have the right to remove the Backup Servicer with or without cause at any
time and replace the Backup Servicer pursuant to the provisions of the
Backup Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Agent exercises its right
to remove and replace Concord Servicing Corporation as Backup Servicer,
Concord Servicing Corporation shall have no further obligation to perform
the duties of the Backup Servicer under this Agreement.
(d) The Servicer shall provide monthly, or as otherwise requested, to
the Backup Servicer, or its agent, information on the Receivables
sufficient to enable the Backup Servicer to assume the responsibilities as
successor servicer and collect on the Receivables.
(e) Except as provided in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer may
accept and reasonably rely on all accounting, records and work of the
Servicer without audit, and the Backup Servicer shall have no liability for
the acts or omissions of the Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy or omission
(collectively, "Errors") exists in any information received from the
Servicer, and such Errors should cause or materially contribute to the
Backup Servicer making or continuing any Errors (collectively, "Continued
Errors"), the Backup Servicer shall have no liability for such Continued
Errors; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup
Servicer against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of
willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in discovering or
correcting any Error or in the performance of its or their duties hereunder
or under this Agreement.
-55-
(f) The Backup Servicer and its officers, directors, employees,
representatives and agents shall be indemnified by the Servicer from and
against all claims, damages, losses or expenses incurred by the Backup
Servicer (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) arising out of
claims asserted against the Backup Servicer by third parties on any matter
arising out of this Agreement to the extent the act or omission giving rise
to the claim relates to an act or omission of the Servicer, the Seller, the
Depositor or any of their Affiliates and accrues before the date on which
the Backup Servicer assumes the duties of Servicer hereunder, and all
claims, expenses, obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, injuries,
penalties, stamp or other similar taxes, actions, suits, judgments,
reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's and agent's
fees and expenses) of whatever kind or nature regardless of their merit,
demanded, asserted or claimed against the Backup Servicer directly or
indirectly relating to, or arising from, claims against the Backup Servicer
by reason of its participation in the transactions contemplated hereby,
including without limitation all reasonable costs required to be associated
with claims for damages to persons or property, and reasonable attorneys'
and consultants' fees and expenses and court costs except for any claims,
damages, losses or expenses arising from the Backup Servicer's own gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The obligations of the
Servicer under this Section 4.22(g) shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the
Backup Servicer.
In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Backup Servicer, the Backup
Servicer may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Backup Servicer which conform to the requirements of this
Agreement.
The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by an officer or officers of the Backup Servicer, unless it shall be
conclusively determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Backup
Servicer was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement the
Backup Servicer shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such
matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of
the Backup Servicer, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a
certificate signed by one of the Servicer's officers, and delivered to the
Backup Servicer and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or bad
faith on the part of the Backup Servicer, shall be full warrant to the Backup
Servicer of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of
this Agreement upon the faith thereof.
The Backup Servicer, in its capacity as such, may consult with counsel and
the advice or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good
faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion of counsel.
The Backup Servicer, in its capacity as such, shall not be bound to make
any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent,
entitlement order, approval or other paper or document.
-56-
The Backup Servicer, in its capacity as such, may execute any of the trusts
or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with due care, and
shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on the part of
any agent, attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed.
Section 4.23. Retention of Servicer. Bluegreen hereby covenants and agrees
to act as Servicer under this Agreement for an initial term, commencing on the
Initial Addition Date and ending on the third Payment Date, which term shall be
extendible by the Agent, acting at the direction of a majority of the Percentage
Interests of the Notes, for successive three-month terms ending on each third
successive Payment Date (or, pursuant to revocable written standing instructions
from time to time to Bluegreen, for any specified number of terms greater than
one). Each such notice (including each notice pursuant to standing instructions,
which shall be deemed delivered at the end of successive monthly terms for so
long as such instructions are in effect) (a "Servicer Extension Notice") shall
be delivered by the Agent to the Servicer and shall be in substantially the form
of Exhibit K hereto. Bluegreen hereby agrees that, as of the date hereof and
upon its receipt of any such Servicer Extension Notice, Bluegreen shall become
bound, for the initial term beginning on the Initial Addition Date and for the
duration of the term covered by such notice, to continue as the Servicer subject
to and in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.
Section 4.24. Continuation of Servicing. Upon any sale or other disposition
of some or all of the Receivables by the Indenture Trustee following an Event of
Default under the Indenture, if requested by the Indenture Trustee (acting at
the direction of the Agent on behalf of the Majority Noteholders) in writing,
the Servicer will continue to service such Receivables in accordance with the
terms hereof in consideration for continued payment of the Servicing Fee to the
Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof.

THE SELLER, THE DEPOSITOR, THE SERVICER
AND THE CLUB TRUSTEE
Section 5.1. Liability. The Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer shall be
liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically
imposed upon and undertaken by the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer, as the
case may be herein.
Section 5.2. Merger or Consolidation. Any Person into which the Depositor,
the Seller or the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Depositor,
the Seller or the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the
business of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall be the successor of
the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of
the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided,
however, that the successor Servicer shall satisfy all the requirements of
Section 6.2(a) with respect to the qualifications of a successor Servicer. The
Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall provide the Agent with 30 days'
prior notice of any such merger or consolidation.
Section 5.3. Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. Neither
the Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor or any of their respective directors or
officers or employees or agents shall be under any liability to the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Owners for
any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action by such Person
in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided,
however, that this provision shall not protect the Seller, the Depositor or any
of their respective directors or officers or employees or agents against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance,
bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason
of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder and that this
provision shall not protect the Servicer or any of their respective directors or
officers or employees or agents against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard
of its obligations and duties hereunder. The Servicer and any director or
officer or employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any
document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person
respecting any matters arising hereunder.
Section 5.4. Servicer Not to Resign. Provided that Bluegreen Corporation or
its Affiliate is the Servicer, subject to the provisions of Sections 4.23 and
5.2, the Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except (i) upon determination that the performance of its
obligations or duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law
or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other
activities carried on by it or its subsidiaries or Affiliates, the other
activities of the Servicer so causing such a conflict being of a type and nature
carried on by the Servicer or its subsidiaries or Affiliates at the date of this
Agreement or (ii) the Servicer has proposed a successor servicer to the
Indenture Trustee and the Owners in writing and such proposed successor servicer
is reasonably acceptable to the Majority Noteholders; provided, however, that no
such resignation by the Servicer shall become effective

until such successor servicer or, in the case of (i) above, the Backup Servicer
shall have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities and obligations hereunder or
the Indenture Trustee shall have designated a successor servicer in accordance
with Section 6.2. Any such resignation shall not relieve the Servicer of
responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 as
obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer. Any
such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to clause
(i) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered
to the Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event the Backup Servicer becomes the Servicer hereunder, at
any time thereafter, the Backup Servicer may resign from its duties as Servicer
upon not less than 90 days' written notice to the Agent, the Depositor and the
Indenture Trustee.
Section 5.5. Delegation of Duties. In the ordinary course of business, the
Servicer at any time may delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Person,
including any of its Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance
with standards comparable to those set forth in Section 4.1. Such delegation
shall not relieve the Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with
respect to such duties and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning
of Section 5.4. The Servicer shall provide the Indenture Trustee and the Backup
Servicer with written notice prior to the delegation of any of its duties to any
Person other than any of the Servicer's Affiliates or their respective
successors and assigns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Backup Servicer, if acting as Servicer hereunder, shall have the
right to resign from its duties hereunder upon 90 days' written notice to the
Servicer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Agent.
Section 5.6. Indemnification of the Issuer by the Servicer. The Servicer
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owners, the Custodian and the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Owners and their respective officers,
directors, agents and employees from and against any loss, liability, expense,
damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of the Servicer's willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its activities
in servicing or administering the Receivables pursuant to this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable fees
of counsel of its selection and other costs or expenses incurred in connection
with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim related
to the Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. Any such
indemnification shall not be payable from the assets of the Issuer. The
provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by an
injured party subject to the limitations hereof. The provisions of this Section
5.6 shall survive termination of the Agreement or the earlier of the resignation
or removal of the Indenture Trustee. To the extent not paid in accordance with
Article VIII of the Trust Agreement, the Seller shall be secondarily liable for
amounts owing under such Article VIII.
Section 5.7. Hedging Requirements. Upon prior written notice from the Agent

Section 5.8. General Covenants of the Club Trustee.
Until the date on which the Note Principal Balance has been indefeasibly

Trust Agreement in connection with its exercise of its rights as an
Interest Holder Beneficiary (as defined in the Club Trust Agreement) under
Section 7.02 of the Club Trust Agreement.

share of such costs. To the extent that the Club Trustee and the
Servicer (together with their respective stockholders or Affiliates)

observe all necessary, appropriate and customary corporate

action, keeping separate and accurate minutes of its meetings, passing
all resolutions or consents necessary to authorize actions taken or to
be taken, and maintaining accurate and separate books, records and
accounts, including, but not limited to, payroll and intercompany

substantially all of its assets as an entirety to any Person unless the
corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Club Trustee, as
the case may be, has merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance,
transfer or lease substantially all the assets of the Club Trustee, as the
case may be, as an entirety, can lawfully perform the obligations of the

Trustee which contains an assumption by such successor entity of the due
and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to
be performed or observed by the Club Trustee under this Agreement.

Section and any provision of law, the Club Trustee shall not do any of the

solvent;

entity or sell all or substantially all of its assets or acquire all

-64-
(xiv) Any failure by the Servicer to meet the financial covenants

(xv) The Agent shall not have delivered a Servicer Extension
Notice pursuant to Section 4.23.
(b) then, and in each and every such case, so long as a Servicer
Termination Event shall not have been remedied within the applicable grace
period, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the direction of the Agent on
behalf of the Majority Noteholders, by notice then given in writing to the
Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as
servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Servicer shall also
be given to the Seller, the Issuer, the Depositor and the Backup Servicer.
On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all
authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with
respect to the Notes or the Receivables or otherwise, shall pass to and be
vested in the Backup Servicer pursuant to and under this Section; and,
without limitation, the Backup Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered
to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or
otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer
and endorsement of each Receivable and related documents or otherwise. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Backup Servicer in effecting the
termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer hereunder,
including, without limitation, the transfer to the Backup Servicer for the
administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by
the Servicer and to be deposited by it in the Note Account, or that have
been deposited by the Servicer in the Lock-Box Account or thereafter
received by the Servicer with respect to the Receivables. All reasonable
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
transferring the Receivables Documents to the successor servicer and
amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as servicer pursuant to
this Section shall be paid by the Servicer (or if the Servicer is the
Backup Servicer, the initial Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs and expenses.
Section 6.2. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 6.1 or 5.4, the Backup Servicer shall be
the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer
under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein
and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof
(except those not applicable to the Backup Servicer if the Backup Servicer
becomes the Servicer hereunder) arising on and after its succession. As
compensation therefor, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to such
compensation as Servicer as is provided for in Schedule V hereof "Servicing
Fee" and the exhibits thereto. Notwithstanding the above, if the Backup
Servicer is legally unable so to act, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint
or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established
housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan or
contract servicer having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 as the
successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of
the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. In
the event that Concord Servicing Corporation, as Backup Servicer, is
legally unable to act as Servicer under this Agreement and another entity
is appointed as successor servicer under this Section, Concord Servicing
Corporation shall have no further
-65-
obligation to perform the obligations of Servicer or Backup Servicer under
this Agreement. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer
hereunder, unless the Backup Servicer is prohibited by law from so acting,
the Backup Servicer shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In
connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be
entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Receivables in an
amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise have
received pursuant to Section 4.7 (or such lesser compensation as the
Indenture Trustee and such successor shall agree). The appointment of a
successor servicer shall not affect any liability of the Servicer which may
have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer to
pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 4.4 or to
indemnify the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.6, nor shall any
successor servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the Servicer or
for any breach by the Servicer of any of its representations or warranties
contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Trustee and
such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as
shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
(b) Any successor, including the Backup Servicer, to the Servicer as
servicer shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to
service and administer the Receivables for the benefit of the Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Owners.
Section 6.3. Waiver of Defaults. The Owners of a majority of the Percentage
Interests of the Notes (the "Majority Noteholders") may, on behalf of all
Owners, waive any events permitting removal of the Servicer as servicer pursuant
to this Article VI, provided, however, that the Majority Noteholders may not
waive a default in making a required distribution on a Note without the consent
of the Owner of such Note. Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall
cease to exist and any Servicer Termination Event arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver
shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent
thereto except to the extent expressly so waived.
Section 6.4. Notification to Owners. Upon any termination or appointment of
a successor to the Servicer pursuant to this Article VI or Section 5.4, the
Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Owners at
their respective addresses appearing in the Register.
Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the
Indenture Trustee or the Backup Servicer be liable for any servicing fee or for
any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the
amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer
under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

by such courts.

payments which are required to be distributed to any Owner without the consent
of the Owner of such Note or (B) change the percentages of Percentage Interest
which are required to consent to any such amendments, without the consent of the

such execution and delivery have been satisfied. The Indenture Trustee and the
Backup Servicer may, but shall not be obligated to enter into any such amendment
