any time shall be the aggregate principal amount owing on each Note at such
time. Agent shall and is hereby authorized to record on any grid attached to

amount of each Advance made by Lenders, the interest rate and interest period
applicable thereto and each repayment thereof; and such grid or other books and

in such recordation) or any payment thereon shall not affect the Obligations of
Borrower under this Agreement or under the Notes and shall not adversely affect
Lender's rights under this Agreement with respect to the repayment thereof. At

Note in a stated principal amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of
the Loan, which such Note or Notes shall be on the same terms and

such Note is required in connection with an increase, modification, or extension
of the Revolving Credit Period, the Maximum Loan Amount, the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Maturity Date, the Revolving Loan Maturity Date or
the amount of the Loan or any other modification to this Agreement, then
delivery of such Note shall be at the sole expense of Borrower. Otherwise,
delivery of such Note shall be at the sole expense of the Lender requesting the
Note.
2.5 Notice of Advances.
(a) Upon receipt by TFC from Borrower of a written request for an Advance
in accordance with Section 5 hereof and Borrower's satisfaction of the
requirements set forth in Section 5 hereof, TFC shall give a written notice (a
"Notice of Borrowing") to each Lender, (which Notice of Borrowing shall be given
to each Lender not less than one (1) business day prior to the date of the
proposed Advance) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit O setting forth: (i)
the total amount of the Advance requested by Borrower and whether it is a
request for an Advance under the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component or
under the Revolving Loan Component; (ii) the aggregate amount of all Loans
previously made by each respective Lender; (iii) the outstanding principal
balance of the Revolving Loan Component; (iv) the outstanding principal balance
of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component; (v) the current applicable
Interest Rate as determined in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof; (vi) each
such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the requested Advance and (vii) the date on
which such Advance is to be made;
or, at the option of the Agent:
(b) Agent shall provide to each Lender: (A) each month by the close of
business on the fifth (5th) business day following receipt by TFC from Borrower,
but in no event later than the 30th day of the month: (i) an updated borrowing
base report (a "Borrowing Base Report") in the form attached as Exhibit P; and
(ii) an updated trial balance and aging report for the Pledged Notes Receivable
(a "Collateral Data Report"); and (B) by the close of business on the tenth
(10th) business day following receipt by TFC from Borrower of the documents
described in Section 2.5(b)(A) above, (i) a summary of all Advances made by TFC
during the immediately preceding month (a "Summary of Weekly Advances"); and
(ii) a summary report of Advances and repayments or collections for the
immediately preceding month and a calculation of the amount of the Advance
required of such Lender (a "Lender Advance Report").
2.6 Disbursement of Funds.
(a) If notice of Advances is provided in accordance with Section 2.5(a)
above, then after receiving a Notice of Borrowing from TFC, each Lender shall,
not later than 11:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on the date specified in such
Notice of Borrowing on which the proposed Advance is to be made, wire transfer
to Agent at the Transfer Account, in immediately available funds, an amount
equal to each such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the proposed Advance as set
forth in the Notice of Borrowing. Upon Agent's receipt of funds from each Lender
equal to the amount of the requested Advance, and subject to Borrower's
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Agent shall disburse
the Advance to Borrower by wire transfer of
24
funds as directed in writing by Borrower. If Agent shall not receive funds from
any Lender as set forth above, then, subject to Section 2.3 hereof, the amount
of the Advance in question shall be automatically reduced by an amount equal to
the missing Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the Advance in question, and Agent
shall, subject to Borrower's compliance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, disburse the Advance in the reduced amount to Borrower by wire
transfer of funds as directed in writing by Borrower. TFC, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may (but shall not be obligated to) make the full amount of
the requested Advance available to Borrower prior to the receipt by Agent from
one or more Lenders of funds representing such Lender's or Lenders' Pro Rata
Percentage of the Advance in question, subject to Section 2.3 hereof. If the
funds representing such Lender's or Lenders' Pro Rata Percentage of the Advance
in question are not received by Agent within two business days of the date of
such Advance, Borrower shall immediately, upon demand of TFC, repay such amount
to Agent. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligations hereunder or to prejudice any rights TFC may have against any Lender
as a result of any Lender's failure to make any Loan or Loans as provided
herein; or
(b) If Agent shall, at its sole and absolute discretion, elect to fund
periodic Advances on behalf of each of the Lenders, and in such event notice of
Advances is provided in accordance with Section 2.5(b) above, then by the close
of business on the third (3rd) business day following such Lender's receipt of
the Lender Advance Report, such Lender shall wire transfer to Agent at the
Transfer Account, in immediately available funds, the net amount due from such
Lender as set forth in the Lender Advance Report. If the funds representing such
Lender's amount of the Advance or Advances in question are not received by Agent
within five (5) business days of the date of such Lender's receipt of the Lender
Advance Report, Borrower shall immediately, upon demand of TFC, repay such
amount to Agent. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligations hereunder or to prejudice any rights TFC may have against any Lender
as a result of any Lender's failure to make any Loan or Loans as provided
herein.
2.7 Interest Rate. From and after the Closing Date, (i) with respect to
the Revolving Loan Component, including each Loan hereafter made pursuant to
Section 2.2(a) hereof, the Revolving Loan Component shall bear interest at the
Revolving Loan Component Interest Rate and (ii) with respect to the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component, including each Loan hereafter made
pursuant to Section 2.1(a) hereof, the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component
shall bear interest at the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component Interest
Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the
respective maturity date (if the Loan is not paid in full on the respective
maturity date), at TFC's election, in its sole discretion, the entire Loan will
bear interest at the Default Rate.
2.8 Payments. Borrower agrees punctually to pay or cause to be paid to
Agent, as agent for each Lender, all principal and interest due under each Note
in respect of the Loans. Borrower shall make the following payments on the
Loans:
(a) Monthly Payments.
(1) Revolving Loan Component. Borrower shall direct or otherwise cause all
makers of all Pledged Notes Receivable to pay all monies due thereunder to the
lockbox established pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, or as otherwise required
by TFC. One hundred percent
25
(100%) of the cleared funds collected from the Pledged Notes Receivable each
week will be paid to Agent by the Lockbox Agent pursuant to the Lockbox
Agreement, and will be applied by Agent first to the payment of costs or
expenses incurred by TFC pursuant to this Agreement in creating, maintaining,
protecting or enforcing the Liens in and to the Collateral and in collecting any
amounts due to any Lender in connection with the Loan ("Collection Costs") and
the balance to each Lender in accordance with the applicable percentage of the
outstanding principal balance of the Loan that each Lender has made (the "Pro
Rata Payment Percentage") as provided in Section 2.8(d) hereof. Each Lender
shall apply the balance of each such payment in the following order: (i) to any
interest accrued at the applicable Default Rate, (ii) to the payment of accrued
and unpaid interest at the Revolving Loan Component Interest Rate, and (iii) to
the reduction of the principal balance of such Lender's outstanding Loans. In
the event that the cleared funds received by Agent are insufficient to pay the
amounts described in aforementioned clauses (i)-(ii), then Agent shall provide
Borrower with written notice of such insufficiency and Borrower shall pay the
insufficiency to Agent within five (5) days of the date of such written notice.
In the event Borrower receives any payments on any of the Pledged Notes
Receivable directly from or on behalf of the maker or makers thereof, Borrower
shall receive all such payments in trust for the sole and exclusive benefit of
Lenders; and Borrower shall deliver to the Lockbox Agent all such payments (in
the form so received by Borrower) as and when received by Borrower within one
(1) Business Day of receipt thereof, unless a Default or an Event of Default has
occurred and TFC shall have notified Borrower to deliver directly to Agent all
payments in respect of the Pledged Notes Receivable which may be received by
Borrower, in which event all such payments (in the form received) shall be
endorsed by Borrower to Agent as agent for Lenders and delivered to Agent by
Borrower within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof; and
(2) Acquisition/Construction Loan Component. Borrower shall pay to Agent
on or before the tenth day of each month an amount equal to: (i) any Collection
Costs; (ii) all interest accrued at the applicable Default Rate on the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component; and (iii) all interest due and payable
as of the last day of the immediately preceding month on the outstanding
principal balance of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component at the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Interest Rate. In the event that Borrower fails to
make the payment in question, Agent may, at its option, on or before the tenth
day of each month, make an Advance with respect to the Revolving Loan Component
and apply such Advance to the payment of amounts due in respect of the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component as provided immediately above.
(b) Semi-Annual Principal Payments. Borrower agrees to repay the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component by making the following minimum
semi-annual principal repayments (inclusive of any release payments as described
in Section 2.16 hereof):
Semi-Annual Cumulative
----------- ----------
On or before September 15, 2004: $ 1,475,000 $ 1,475,000
On or before December 15, 2004: $ 3,441,666 $ 4,916,666
On or before June 15, 2005: $ 3,441,667 $ 8,358,333
On or before September 15, 2005: $ 3,441,667 $11,800,000
26
Such semi-annual payments will be applied by each Lender as follows: (i)
first to interest at the applicable Default Rate; (ii) then to interest at the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Interest Rate; (iii) then to the reduction of
principal of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component.
(c) Final Payment. Unless sooner due as a result of acceleration or
otherwise, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with
all other Obligations hereunder, shall be due and payable on the respective
maturity dates as follows: (i) the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component shall
be due and payable in full, with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the
earlier of: (y) Sale of 85% of all Intervals at the Marathon Key Resort; or (z)
the Acquisition/Construction Loan Maturity Date; and (ii) the Revolving Loan
Component shall be due and payable in full, with all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, on March 31, 2009 (the "Revolving Loan Maturity Date").
(d) Payments to Lenders. Promptly upon receipt by Agent of any payment
from Borrower in accordance with this Sections 2.8, 2.9 and 2.16, and after
payment of any Collection Costs, Agent shall promptly wire transfer to each
Lender as described in Schedules A-1 and A-2 hereto, in immediately available
funds, each such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the payment in question.
2.9 Prepayments.
(a) Voluntary Prepayments.
(i) Subject to the minimum usage requirement described in Section 2.10
below, during the Revolving Credit Period partial prepayments of the Revolving
Loan Component will only be allowed upon thirty (30) days prior written notice
to TFC, without penalty, solely as a result of the sale of the Pledged Notes
Receivable into a securitization and/or true-sale financing program arranged by
the Borrower, or into a term/conduit facility arranged by TFC. After any such
sale, the Borrower shall cause a minimum of $1,000,000 to remain outstanding
under the Loan for the term thereof.
(ii) Subject to the minimum usage requirements described in Section 2.10
below, Borrower may prepay the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component, in whole
or in part, at any time, without penalty or premium.
(iii) Upon expiration of the Revolving Credit Period, prepayment of the
Revolving Loan Component will be allowed, in whole or in part, upon thirty (30)
days prior written notice to TFC and the payment of a prepayment premium as
provided in Section 2.9(c)(i) hereof.
(b) Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time and for any reason: (i) the
outstanding unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loan Component shall
exceed the Maximum Available Revolving Amount; (ii) the outstanding unpaid
principal balance of the Revolving Loan Component divided by the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of all Eligible Notes Receivable pledged to Agent
hereunder shall exceed the Borrowing Base; or (iii) the outstanding unpaid
principal balance of both the Revolving Loan Component and the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component shall exceed the Maximum Loan Amount
(each an "Excess Funding") then, within five (5) Business Days following the
date of written notice from TFC of the occurrence of such excess or, absent such
notice, within fifteen (15) days after the
27
end of the calendar month in which such excess occurred: (x) in the case of an
Excess Funding described in (i) or (ii) above, Borrower shall promptly repay the
principal balance of the Revolving Loan Component in an amount equal to such
Excess Funding or (y) in the case of an Excess Funding described in (iii) above,
Borrower shall prepay the principal balance of the Acquisition/Construction Loan
Component (and if necessary the Revolving Loan Component) in an amount equal to
such Excess Funding. If TFC has determined that Notes Receivable have been
delivered to Agent and were included in the Borrowing Base, which Notes
Receivable did not or no longer qualify as Eligible Notes Receivable
("Ineligible Notes Receivable"), Borrower shall substitute Eligible Notes
Receivable for such Ineligible Notes Receivable and thereby increase the
aggregate principal amount of Eligible Notes Receivable pledged to Agent as
agent for Lenders so that Excess Funding is eliminated. The pledge and delivery
to Agent as agent for Lenders of additional Eligible Notes Receivable shall
comply with the document delivery and recordation requirements set forth in
Section 5.1 of this Agreement and shall be accompanied by a written
certification of Borrower to the effect that such additional Pledged Notes
Receivable are Eligible Notes Receivable, and that, giving effect to the pledge
to Agent as agent for Lenders of such Eligible Notes Receivable, the outstanding
unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loan Component divided by the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Eligible Notes Receivable pledged
to Agent hereunder is equal to or less than the Borrowing Base If Borrower
elects to prepay the excess principal balance of the Loan pursuant to this
Section 2.9(b), no prepayment premium shall be payable in connection with such
prepayment.
(c) Premiums. Except as provided in Section 2.10 hereof, no prepayment
premium shall be required in connection with: (x) any voluntary prepayment made
in accordance with Section 2.8(b), Section 2.9(a)(i), Section 2.9(a)(ii) and
Section 2.9(b); or (y) in connection with any prepayment of the principal
balance of the Loan which arises from the prepayment of one or more Eligible
Notes Receivable by its maker or makers. Except as heretofore set forth,
Borrower shall, in connection with a prepayment, pay to the Agent on behalf of
the Lenders a prepayment premium as follows:
(i) Any prepayment of the Loan pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(iii)
above must be accompanied by a prepayment premium,
calculated as of the date immediately prior to such
prepayment, equal to one half of one percent (.50%) of the
amount prepaid.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary,
any prepayment under this Section 2.9 must include all
accrued but unpaid interest, and accrued but unpaid
contributions, taxes, insurance, loan charges (including
Minimum Loan Usage Fees, if any), custodial fees,
attorneys' and paralegals' fees and expenses, and other
fees or expenses incurred by TFC or Lender or advanced to
or on behalf of Borrower by TFC or any Lender pursuant to
any of the Loan Documents accrued but unpaid.
2.10 Minimum Loan Usage Fee. In addition to the interest payable pursuant
to this Agreement, during the Revolving Credit Period, Borrower shall pay to
Agent as agent for the Lenders with respect to each six month period commencing
on the Initial Revolving Loan Advance Date and with respect to each six month
period thereafter during the Revolving Credit Period, on the
28
fifth day after every such six month period, in arrears, a fee (the "Minimum
Loan Usage Fee") equal to the product of: (a) the excess, if any of (i)
$10,000,000.00 over (ii) the average daily outstanding principal balance of the
Loan for such six month period; times (b) one percent (1.00%) per annum.
2.11 Capital Adequacy Events, Etc. If TFC shall have determined that the
applicability of any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted pursuant to or
arising out of law, rule, regulation or guideline (including, but not limited
to, any United States law, rule, regulation or guideline) regarding capital
adequacy, or any change becoming effective in any of the foregoing or in the
enforcement or interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any
court or any domestic or foreign governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the enforcement or interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender, with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Lender or any
Lender's holding company, as the case may be, to a level below that which any
Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, could have achieved but for
such applicability, adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration
each Lender's or its holding company's, as the case may be, policies with
respect to capital adequacy) (the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as
"Capital Adequacy Events"), then, upon demand by TFC, Borrower shall pay to
Agent on behalf of any such Lender, from time to time, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate any such Lender for any such reduction suffered,
provided that payments by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not
subject the Borrower to any prepayment premium under Section 2.9 hereof.
2.12 Commitment Fee. Borrower and each Lender, other than Textron
Financial Corporation, acknowledge and agree that the following Commitment Fees
shall be due and payable exclusively to TFC for its services hereunder as
follows: (i) Acquisition/Construction Loan Component: an amount equal to
three-quarters of one percent (.75%) of the principal amount of the such
component or a total of $88,500, which commitment fee has been paid in full and
(ii) Revolving Loan Component: an amount equal to three-quarters of one percent
(.75%) of the principal amount of this component or a total of $225,000, which
shall be due and payable as follows: (a) $25,000 which amount has been paid by
Borrower; (b) $125,000 due on the Initial Revolving Loan Advance Date, but in no
event later than three (3) months from the Closing Date, and (c) $75,000 due on
the earlier of 6 months from the Closing Date or when the aggregate Revolving
Loan Advances total $20,000,000.00. Subject only to the foregoing condition,
Borrower and each Lender, other than Textron Financial Corporation, agree that
Agent has earned the entire Commitment Fee, notwithstanding whether a closing
occurs under this Agreement or whether the Loan or any portion thereof is
funded.
2.13 Pro Rata Treatment. Each repayment of principal and interest on the
Revolving Loan Component and Acquisition/Construction Loan Component shall be
allocated among Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Payment
Percentage. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender's portion of any
Advance to be made hereunder, TFC may, in its discretion, round each Lender's
such Advance to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount. If any Lender
shall, through the exercise of a right of banker's lien, set-off, counterclaim
or otherwise, obtain payment with respect to its Loans which results in its
receiving more than its
29
Pro Rata Payment Percentage of any payments described above, then (A) such
Lender shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased from each of the other
Lenders a share in such other Lender's Loans so that the amount of the Loans of
all Lenders shall be pro rata as otherwise set forth above, (B) such Lender
shall immediately pay to the other Lenders their Pro Rata Payment Percentage of
the payments otherwise received as consideration for such purchase and (C) such
other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to
insure that all Lenders share such payments ratably. If all or any portion of
any such excess payment is thereafter recovered from Lender which received the
same, the purchase provided in this Section 2.13 shall be deemed to have been
rescinded to the extent of such recovery, without interest. Borrower expressly
consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that each Lender so purchasing
a portion of another Lender's loans may exercise all rights of payment
(including all rights of set-off, banker's lien or counterclaim) with respect to
such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.
2.14 Suspension of Advances. In addition to any other rights that Lenders
have hereunder, if any stay, order, cease and desist order, injunction,
temporary restraining order or similar judicial or nonjudicial sanction shall be
issued limiting or otherwise materially adversely affecting any Interval sales
activities, other business operations in respect of the Resorts, or the
enforcement of the remedies of Agent and Lenders hereunder, then, in such event,
Agent and Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Advances hereunder: (i)
in respect of Pledged Notes Receivable from the sale of Intervals which are the
subject of any stay, order, cease and desist order, injunction, temporary
restraining order or similar judicial or nonjudicial sanction has been issued
until the stay, order, cease and desist order, injunction, temporary restraining
order or similar judicial or nonjudicial sanction has been lifted or released to
the satisfaction of TFC and (ii) in respect of Pledged Notes Receivable from the
sale of Intervals at any Resort if: (x) the stay, order, cease and desist order,
injunction, temporary restraining order or similar judicial or nonjudicial
sanction in question has not been lifted or released to the satisfaction of TFC
within sixty (60) days of its issuance and (y) there is a reduction in the total
number of sales of Intervals by Borrower in any Loan Year of more than twenty
percent (20%) from the total number of sales of Intervals in the immediately
preceding Loan Year.
2.15 Loan Participation.
(a) TFC shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower or any
other Lender or Borrower's or any other Lender's approval, to designate one or
more Participants or Lenders and to sell or grant to such Participants or
Lenders participation or co-lender interests in the Loan, and in the respective
Loan Documents, and in the Collateral, on terms and conditions satisfactory, in
its sole and absolute discretion, to TFC. In the event that TFC so designates a
Participant or Lenders and sells or grants such Participant or Lenders a
participation or co-lender interest in the Loan, such Participant or Lenders
shall communicate and deal only with TFC in respect to such Participant's or
Lenders interest in the Loan, the Loan Documents and the Collateral, and
Borrower shall communicate and deal only with TFC and not with any Participant
or other Lender. TFC shall provide Borrower with prior written notice of the
identity of each Participant and/or Lender. TFC shall use good faith efforts not
to designate one or more Participants or Lenders which Borrower has advised TFC,
in writing, are direct and material competitors of Borrower in the sale of
timeshare intervals and who are thus reasonably objectionable to Borrower.
Borrower agrees to, diligently and in good faith, cooperate with TFC
30
in connection with its consummation and administration of a written
participation or loan agreement or agreements with one or more Participants or
Lenders or their successors and assigns, and in complying with the terms of any
such participation or loan agreement, including with respect to periodic
deliveries of accountings and reports with respect to the Loan, the Loan
Documents and the Collateral. If the designation of such Participant or Lender
results in an increase, modification, or extension of the Revolving Credit
Period, the Maximum Loan Amount, the Acquisition/Construction Loan Maturity
Date, the Revolving Loan Maturity Date or the amount of the Loan or any other
modification to this Agreement, then the designation of such Participant or
Lender shall be at the sole expense of Borrower. Otherwise, the designation of
such Participant or Lender shall be at no cost to Borrower.
(b) In the event that TFC shall elect to make the entire Loan, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Section 2.15, any and all agency provisions of
this Agreement shall be disregarded and TFC shall act solely on its own behalf
and shall hold the Collateral solely in its own name and for its own benefit,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2.16 Release Payments. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other
Loan Documents to the contrary, upon sale of each Interval at the Marathon Key
Resort, Agent and each Lender agree to release such Interval from the Lien of
the Marathon Key Resort Mortgage provided that: (i) no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder; (ii) the sale is a bona fide
sale to a Person other than Borrower, any of Borrower's Agents or any Affiliate
of either Borrower, at a Purchase Price and on such other terms and conditions
as are reasonably acceptable to TFC; and (iii) Borrower pays to Agent a release
price equal to the greater of: (y) $4,566 per Interval to be released or (z) an
amount sufficient, as determined by TFC in its sole discretion, such that the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component will be repaid in full if 85% of all
Intervals are sold at such amount (the "Release Price"). The Release Price will
be applied to repayment of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component as
provided in Section 2.8 hereof. Upon payment of the Acquisition/Construction
Loan Component in full, the Marathon Key Resort Mortgage shall be released in
full.
SECTION 3 -- COLLATERAL
3.1 Grant of Security Interest. (a) To secure the payment and performance
of the Obligations, for value received, Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably
assigns, pledges and grants to Agent as agent for each Lender a continuing first
priority security interest in and to the Collateral and (b) for convenience of
administration, Agent is acting as agent for the Lenders under the Agreement.
Agent, as such agent, may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through its
agents, officers or employees and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of
counsel as to its duties. Agent, as such agent, shall not be liable to the other
Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and
shall neither be responsible to the Lenders for the consequences of any
oversight or error of judgment nor be answerable to the Lenders for any loss
unless the same shall happen through Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. To the extent that Agent, as such agent, shall not be reimbursed by
the Borrower for any costs, liabilities or expenses incurred in such capacity,
the Lenders shall reimburse Agent therefor pro rata in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Percentages (including Agent as one of the Lenders for this
purpose). Each Lender agrees that Agent shall be entitled to take and shall only
be required to take, any action which it is permitted to take under this
Agreement.
31
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower acknowledges and
agrees as that the Revolving Loan Component and the Acquisition/Construction
Loan Agreement shall each be secured by:
(i) a first priority security interest in the Eligible Notes
Receivable pledged to Agent on behalf of Lenders as
provided herein, the Mortgages with respect thereto;
(ii) the documents, instruments, accounts, chattel paper, and
general intangibles relating to the Pledged Notes
Receivable and the related Mortgages;
(iii) a first mortgage lien on the Marathon Key Resort;
(iv) a first lien in and to all equipment, furnishings,
inventory, supplies, account, chattel paper and general
intangibles at any time located at, arising out of the use
of and/or used in and the connection with the operation of
the Marathon Key Resort;
(v) an absolute and unconditional first assignment of any and
all leases, subleases, licenses, concessions, entry fees,
or other agreements which grant a possessory interest in
and to, or the right to use all or any portion of the
Marathon Key Resort, including any Units or Intervals, and
including, but not limited to, the current Sovereignty
Submerged Lands Lease between Marathon Key Resort and
Marathon, Ltd., as lessee and the Board of Trustees of the
Internal Improvement Trust Fund of the State of Florida,
and any replacement or new such lease between Borrower and
the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust
Fund of the State of Florida (the "Submerged Lands
Lease"), and any and all modifications or amendments
thereto;
(vi) an absolute and unconditional first assignment of all of
the rents (excluding rents assigned to the owners
association), revenues, income, process, royalties, room
rents and charges, profits and other benefits payable for
using, leasing, licensing, possessing, operating from or
in, or otherwise enjoying all or any portion of the
Marathon Key Resort, including any Units or Intervals,
including, without limitation, damages received upon the
occurrence of a default with respect thereto;
(vii) an absolute and unconditional first assignment of all
other agreements to which Borrower is or becomes a party
or holds any interest therein and which in any way relate
to the acquisition, construction, development, renovation,
rehabilitation, refitting, furnishing, equipping, use,
occupancy, maintenance or enjoyment of the Marathon Key
Resort, including, but not limited to, the Architectural
Contract, the Construction Contracts and all utility
contracts, maintenance agreements and service
32
contracts, and any agreement guaranteeing the performance
of the obligations contained in any of the foregoing
agreements;
(viii) a first assignment of all marketing, sales and other
material agreements to which Borrower, any Affiliate of
either Borrower, any of Borrower's Agents or any owners
association are parties to and which pertain to the use,
occupancy, maintenance, service or enjoyment of the
Marathon Key Resort;
(ix) a security interest in any depository accounts, and any
other account, Lockbox or post office boxes, or proceeds
thereof, associated with the Eligible Notes whereby Agent
is conferred "control" of thereof in accordance with
Section 9-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code;
(x) all books, records, reports, computer tapes, disks and
software, to the extent assignable (not to include any
reservation system) relating to the Collateral;
(xi) all extensions, additions, improvements, betterments,
renewals, substitutions and replacements of, for or to any
of the Collateral relating to the Marathon Key Resort
wherever located, together with the products, proceeds,
issues, rents and profits thereof, and any replacements,
additions or accessions thereto or substitutions thereof;
and
(xii) a first assignment of all management, franchise and
license agreements for the Marathon Key Resort.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the
assignment of management, franchise and license agreements
for Marathon Key Resort shall be released at such time as
the Marathon Key Resort is declared a timeshare resort in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
3.2 Security Interest in All Pledged Notes Receivable. Notwithstanding
that Lenders may be obligated, subject to the conditions of the Loan Documents,
to make Advances only in respect of Eligible Notes Receivable pledged to Agent,
Lenders shall have a continuing security interest in all of the Pledged Notes
Receivable, including, without limitation, Eligible Notes Receivable that are or
may become ineligible, until any of the same may be released by Agent, if at
all.
3.3 Financing Statements. Each Borrower agrees, at its own expense, to
execute the financing statements, continuation statements and amendments
provided for by the Code together with any and all other instruments or
documents and take such other action as may be required to perfect and to
continue the perfection of Agent's security interest in the Collateral. Each
Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to execute and/or file on each Borrower's

security interest in the Collateral based upon its Pro Rata Percentage and no
Lender's security interest in the Collateral shall have priority over any other
Lender's security interest in the Collateral.
3.5 Insurance. Where insurance coverage with respect to the Resort(s) is
provided by the Timeshare Owners' Association, Borrower shall furnish Agent,

Lenders, as their respective interests may appear. In the event of a loss or
damage to any portion of: (i) any Resort other than the Marathon Key Resort, the
proceeds of insurance shall be applied as provided in the applicable
Declaration, or (ii) the Marathon Key Resort, while any portion of the
Acquisition/Construction Loan Component remains unpaid, Agent may, in its sole

provided in the Custodial Agreement, and held in the Custodian's possession and
control until the Obligations are fully satisfied. Borrower shall pay to the
Custodian all costs, fees and expenses as provided in the Custodial Agreement.
The portion of the Collateral delivered to the Custodian as described above
shall be held by the Custodian as provided in the Custodial Agreement. All
insurance expenses and all expenses of protecting the Collateral, including

shipping the Collateral, and any and all excise, property, intangibles, sales
and use taxes imposed by any state, federal or local authority on any of the
Collateral or in respect of the sale thereof shall be borne and paid by
Borrower; and if Borrower fails to promptly pay any portion thereof when due,
Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge
Borrower's account therefor, and Borrower agrees promptly to reimburse Agent
therefor with interest accruing thereon daily at the Default Rate. All sums so
paid or incurred by Agent for any of the foregoing and any and all other sums
for which Borrower may become liable hereunder and all costs and expenses
(including attorneys' and paralegals' fees, legal expenses and court costs)

any time with a person acceptable to TFC in its sole discretion, or elect to
hold the foregoing documents on its own behalf.
3.7 Additional Eligible Resorts. From time to time during the Term,
Borrower may propose to TFC that one or more time-share plans and projects owned
and operated by Borrower be included among the Eligible Resorts in respect of
which Advances may be made. Any such proposal will be in writing, and will be
accompanied or supported by the due diligence and supporting Borrower, any
Affiliate of Borrower, project, financial and related information identified in
Section 4.5 hereto, and such other information as TFC may reasonably require.
Borrower will reasonably cooperate with TFC's underwriting and due diligence,
and Borrower will be responsible for payment upon billing for TFC's
out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. Subject to TFC's satisfactory
underwriting and due diligence review, including satisfaction of the conditions
in Sections 4 and 5 hereof as they relate to such time-share resorts, TFC may,
but shall not be required to, approve one or more such time-share resorts,
including future phases or condominiums in an existing Eligible Resort, as an
Eligible Resort qualifying for Revolving Loan Advances under and subject to the
terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Subject in each instance to TFC's acceptable underwriting and due
diligence review and TFC's prior written approval, any project as may be
approved by TFC after the Closing Date, if any, is hereinafter referred to as an
"Additional Eligible Resort". Any Revolving Loan Advances hereunder with respect
to any Additional Eligible Resort will be subject to all terms and conditions of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything in this
Section 3.7 to the contrary, TFC may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
require that the Lenders unanimously consent to the approval of any project as
an Additional Eligible Resort.
As a condition to approval of each Resort as an Eligible Resort, Borrower
shall execute and deliver for recording a Negative Pledge, prohibiting
assignment of the management agreements and reservation system for each such
Resort.

agreements and reservation systems for the Marathon Key Resort and each Eligible
Resort.

3.10 Purchaser/Criteria. All Eligible Notes Receivable pledged as
Collateral to Agent subsequent to the Closing Date will be underwritten in a
manner consistent with the Borrower's general underwriting criteria, as approved
in writing by TFC, in its sole discretion. Borrower shall not materially alter
its general underwriting criteria without the prior written approval of TFC,
which approval, TFC may withhold in its sole discretion.
3.11 Replacement Notes Receivable. Ineligible Notes Receivable, as such
term is defined in Section 2.9(b), shall be replaced with Eligible Notes
Receivable, to the extent available, on a dollar for dollar basis, provided,
however, that if Borrower is unable to deliver
35
Eligible Notes Receivable to replace any Ineligible Notes Receivable, Borrower
shall deliver additional Notes Receivable, if available, to Agent whether or not
such additional Notes Receivable satisfy the criteria for Eligible Notes
Receivable. In the event that any Eligible Note Receivable becomes available
thereafter, the Borrower shall promptly substitute such Eligible Note Receivable
for the Ineligible Note Receivable pledged to Agent.

writing by Agent or permitted hereunder. No financing statement or other

Lenders hereunder or Agent as permitted hereunder.
(e) The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the execution and
delivery of the Marathon Key Mortgage (including the assignment of Borrower's
leasehold estate in the Submerged Lands Lease included therein) and the
recording thereof in the county in which the Marathon Key Resort is located, the
delivery and endorsement to Agent as agent for Lenders of the Pledged Notes

56
of the state in which each Borrower is organized and the Assignment of Notes
Receivable and Mortgages in the official records of the county in which the
applicable Resort is located, create in favor of Agent as agent for Lenders a
valid and perfected continuing first or second, as applicable, priority security
interest in the Collateral. The Collateral shall secure the full payment and
performance of the Obligations.
(f) None of the Pledged Notes Receivable is forged or has affixed thereto
any unauthorized signatures or has been entered into by any Person without the

grade and quality of the Encumbered Intervals and rights, properties, easements
and interests appurtenant or related thereto.
(l) The grant of the security interests described herein has not affected
and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the obligations of the
respective makers of the Pledged Notes Receivable under such Notes Receivable or
the respective Mortgages.
(m) Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be required to take, and Borrower
has taken any and all required steps to protect each Lender's security interest
in the Collateral (other than maintaining possession of the portion of the

any Lender is or shall be required to collect or realize upon the Collateral or
any distribution of interest or principal, nor shall loss of, or damage to, the
Collateral release Borrower from any of the Obligations.
6.4 Financial Statements and Business Condition. The Financial Statements
delivered to date fairly present the respective financial conditions and results
of operations of each Borrower as of the date or dates thereof and for the
periods covered thereby. There were no material liabilities, direct or indirect,
fixed or contingent, of either Borrower as of the dates of such Financial
Statements which were not reflected therein or in the notes thereto, which have
not otherwise been disclosed to TFC in writing. Except for any such changes
heretofore expressly disclosed in writing to TFC, there has been no material
adverse change in the
57
respective financial conditions of either Borrower from the financial conditions
shown in their respective Financial Statements, nor has either Borrower incurred
any material liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, which are not
shown in its Financial Statements. Each Borrower is able to pay all of its
respective debts as they become due and each Borrower shall maintain such
solvent financial condition, giving effect to the Obligations, as long as the
Borrower is obligated to Lenders under the Agreement or in any other manner
whatsoever. Each Borrower's Obligations under this Agreement and under the Loan
Documents will not render such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become
due. The present fair market value of each Borrower's assets is greater than the
amount required to pay its respective total liabilities.
6.5 Taxes. In accordance with the requirements set forth in the
Declaration, Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower or Timeshare Owners'
Association, to the extent controlled by Borrower, as required, has paid or will
have paid in full, prior to delinquency, all ad valorem taxes and other taxes
and assessments against the Resorts and the Collateral; and Borrower knows of no
basis for any additional taxes or assessments against the Resorts or the
Collateral. Borrower or the Timeshare Owners' Association, as the case may be,
has filed all tax returns required to have been filed by it and has paid or will
pay prior to delinquency, all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns,
including interest and penalties thereon, and all other taxes which are payable
by it to the extent the same have become due and payable. Borrower has paid or
will have paid in full, prior to delinquency, all ad valorem taxes and other
assessments against the Marathon Key Resort, and Borrower knows of no basis for
any additional taxes or assessments against the Marathon Key Resort.
6.6 Title to Properties: Prior Liens. Borrower has good and marketable
title to all of the Collateral, including but in no way limited to the Marathon
Key Resort, and to all unsold Units and Intervals at each Resort, and all
rights, properties and benefits appurtenant to or benefiting them. Borrower is
not in default under any of the documents evidencing or securing any
indebtedness which is secured, wholly or in part, by any portion of any Resort
or any portion or all the Collateral and no event has occurred which with the
giving of notice, the passage of time or both, would constitute a default under

Lease on the part of any party thereto. Borrower shall not transfer, sell,
pledge, convey, hypothecate, factor or assign all or any of its interest in the
Submerged Lands Lease without first obtaining the prior written consent of TFC
(which consent may be given, withheld or conditioned by TFC in TFC's sole
discretion).
6.35 Title. Borrower has insurable title to the Marathon Key Resort and
Borrower possesses an unencumbered fee estate in the Marathon Key Resort and it
owns the Marathon Key Resort free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and
charges whatsoever except for those
65
exceptions shown in the title insurance policy insuring the lien of the Marathon
Key Resort Mortgage (the "Permitted Exceptions") and the Marathon Key Resort
Mortgage is and will remain a valid and enforceable first lien on and security
interest in the Marathon Key Resort, subject only to said exceptions. Borrower
is not a party to any outstanding contract or agreement providing for or
requiring it to convey its interest in the Marathon Key Resort to any person or
entity, and no person or entity other than Borrower has any beneficial or
equitable right, title or interest in the Marathon Key Resort, or any part
thereof. The possession of the Marathon Key Resort has been peaceful and

materials have been paid in full and, except for such liens or claims insured
against by the policy of title insurance to be issued in connection with the
Loan, there are no mechanics', laborers' or materialmens' liens or claims
outstanding for work, labor or materials affecting the Marathon Key Resort,
whether prior to, equal with or subordinate to the lien of the Marathon Key
Resort Mortgage. Borrower may, in good faith, and by proper legal proceedings,
diligently pursued, contest the validity, amount or application of any
mechanics', laborers' or materialmens' liens or claims outstanding for work,
labor or materials affecting the Marathon Key Resort, provided, however, that in
each case, at the time of the commencement of any such action or proceeding,
66
and during the pendency of such action or proceeding (i) adequate reserves with
respect thereto are maintained on the books of Borrower in accordance with GAAP,
(ii) such contest operates to suspend collection or enforcement, as the case may
be, of the contested amount and such contest is maintained and prosecuted
continuously and with diligence, and (iii) Borrower shall deliver to TFC cash or
surety bond, or otherwise remove the lien to bond in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 713 of the Florida Statutes, in an amount equal to one
hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amounts being contested which exceed
$100,000 (subject to a credit for any funds then held by TFC for such purposes)
in the aggregate and any estimated additional interest, charge or penalty
arising from such contest. Any cash so delivered shall constitute additional
security for the Loan. Borrower shall execute such instruments as TFC shall
require to evidence TFC's perfected first priority security interest therein and
to effectuate the provisions hereof. If, prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Borrower shall provide evidence satisfactory to TFC, in its reasonable
judgment, that Borrower has paid the disputed amount, or otherwise settled the
same and paid any amount to be paid under such settlement, or that Borrower has
received a final unappealable judgment in its favor that it need not pay any
disputed amount, together with a certificate from Borrower confirming the
foregoing, then TFC shall return any cash deposited with TFC with respect to
such disputed amount. If Borrower ceases to contest continuously and with due
diligence any contest described above, or fails to provide TFC with evidence
satisfactory to TFC that it is doing so within ten (10) days after TFC's
request, or if there shall be a final judgment against Borrower with respect
thereto, then TFC may apply all or any portion of the cash to pay such disputed
amount and TFC shall have no liability to Borrower for any determination made by
TFC, in good faith, that it is entitled to do so or as to the amount to then be
paid with respect to such disputed amount, whether or not that determination is
found to be accurate.

passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of
default under any such lease; (vi) to the best of Borrower's knowledge, there
are no offsets or defenses to the payment of any portion of the rents; and (vii)
all rents due and payable under each lease have been paid in full and no said

To the extent any other timeshare receivable lender has any rights to
approve the form of insurance policies with respect to the Resorts, the amounts
of coverage thereunder, the insurers under such policies, or the designation of
an attorney-in-fact for purposes of dealing with damage to any part of the
Resorts or insurance claims or matters related thereto, or any successor to such
attorney-in-fact, or any changes with respect to any of the foregoing, Borrower
shall take all steps as may be necessary (and, after turnover, if any, of
control of the Resorts to the Timeshare Owners' Association, Borrower shall use
its best efforts) to ensure that TFC shall at all times have a co-equal right,
with such other lender (including, without limitation, Borrower or any
third-party lender), to approve all such matters and any proposed changes in
respect thereof; and Borrower shall not cause or permit any changes with respect
to any insurance policies, insurers, coverage, attorney-in-fact, or insurance
trustee, if any, without TFC's prior written approval.
In the event of any insured loss or claim in respect of the Resorts,

efforts to cause each Timeshare Owners' Association to deliver) to TFC receipts
evidencing the payment for all such insurance policies and renewals or

replaced) the damaged improvements and repair or replace any other personal
property to the same condition as immediately prior to such fire or other
casualty and, with respect to the improvements and personal property on the
Resorts, in accordance with the terms of the Timeshare Documents or Timeshare
Act. The insufficiency of any net insurance proceeds shall in no way relieve
Borrower or, as applicable, Borrower and Timeshare Owners' Association, of its
obligation to restore, repair or replace such improvements and other personal
property in accordance with the terms hereof, of the Declaration or other
Timeshare Documents or of the Timeshare Act, and Borrower covenants that
Borrower or, as the case may be, the Timeshare Owners' Association, shall
promptly comply and cause compliance with the provisions of the Declaration and
other Timeshare Documents, or of the Timeshare Act relating to such restoration,
repair or replacement. Borrower shall, with respect to all Resorts other than
the Marathon Key Resort, apply all insurance proceeds payable to or received by
it, in accordance with the applicable Declaration. Prior to the repayment in
full of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component, Agent may, in its sole
discretion, apply all insurance proceeds with respect to the Marathon Key Resort
to restoration of such Resort as provided in the Marathon Key Mortgage. After
repayment in full of the Acquisition/Construction Loan Component, all insurance
proceeds shall be applied as provided in the Declaration.
All insurance policies shall be issued on forms and by companies of at
least a Best rating of A-, which are licensed to do business in the state in
which each Resort is located, and shall be satisfactory to TFC. Borrower shall
deliver copies of all insurance policies described in (i), (ii), (vi) and (vii)
and the original insurance policies, described in (iii), (iv) and (v) above to
TFC prior to closing, and shall deliver to TFC evidence of such coverage
forty-five (45) days prior to the anniversary date of each Insurance Policy. All
insurance policies described in (iii), (iv) and (v) above shall have loss made
payable to TFC as mortgagee together with the standard mortgagee clause, if such
is required in the State of Florida. No insurance policy may be terminated,
reduced, or materially changed without TFC's prior written consent.
(e) Maintenance of Security. Borrower shall execute and deliver (or cause
to be executed and delivered) to TFC all security agreements, financing
statements, assignments and such other agreements, documents, instruments and
certificates, and supplements and amendments thereto, and take such other
actions, as TFC deems necessary or appropriate in order to maintain as valid,
enforceable and perfected first or second priority liens and security interests,
as applicable, all Liens and security interests in the Collateral granted to
Agent as agent for Lenders to secure the Obligations. Borrower shall not grant
extensions of time for the payment of, compromise for less than the full face
value or release in whole or in part, any Purchaser or other Person liable for
the payment of, or allow any credit whatsoever except for the amount of cash to
be paid upon, any Collateral or any instrument, chattel paper or document
representing the Collateral.
(f) Payment of Taxes and Claims. Borrower will pay, and, as applicable
pursuant to the Declaration, Borrower covenants that the Timeshare Owners'
Association will pay, when due, all taxes imposed upon the Resorts, the
Collateral, Borrower, the Timeshare Owners' Association, or any of its or their
Property, or with respect to any of its or their franchises, businesses, income
or
71
profits, or with respect to the Loan or any of the Loan Documents; and Borrower
and the Timeshare Owners' Association, as the case may be, shall pay all other
charges and assessments against Borrower, the Collateral and the Resorts before
any claim (including, without limitation, claims for labor, services, materials
and supplies) arises for sums which have become due and payable. Except for the
Liens in favor of Agent on behalf of Lenders granted pursuant to the Loan
Documents, and except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, Borrower
covenants that no statutory or other Liens whatsoever (including, without
limitation, mechanics', materialmens', judgment or tax liens) shall attach to
any of the Collateral or the Resorts except for such Liens as are expressly
provided for pursuant to the Declaration, which shall, in any event, be
subordinate to the Lien of Agent on behalf of Lenders. In the event any such
Lien attaches to any of the Collateral or the Resorts, Borrower shall, within
thirty (30) days after any such Lien attaches, either (i) cause such Lien to be
released of record or (ii) provide TFC with a bond in accordance with the
applicable laws of the State, issued by a corporate surety acceptable to TFC, in
an amount and form acceptable to TFC.
(g) Inspections. Borrower shall, at any time and from time to time, permit
TFC or any Lender or their respective agents or representatives (provided such
Lender has coordinated such inspection with TFC) to inspect the Resorts, the
Collateral and if necessary, in TFC's opinion, to ascertain or assure Borrower's
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, any of each Borrower's other assets
or Property, and to examine and make copies of and abstracts from its and, to
the extent it has access thereto or possession thereof, the Timeshare Owners'
Association's, books, accounts, records, original correspondence, computer
tapes, disks, software, and other papers as it may desire; and to discuss its
affairs, finances and accounts with any of its officers, employees, Affiliates
of each Borrower, any Borrower's Agent, contractors or independent public
accountants (and by this provision Borrower authorizes said accountants to
discuss with TFC or any Lender, or their respective agents or representatives,
the affairs, finances and accounts of each Borrower or any Affiliate of either
Borrower). TFC and each Lender agree to use reasonable efforts not to
unreasonably interfere with either Borrower's business operations in connection
with any such inspections. Without limiting the foregoing, TFC shall have the
right to make such credit investigations as TFC may deem appropriate in
connection with its review of Notes Receivable, and each Borrower shall make
available to TFC all credit information in each Borrower's possession or under
its control or to which it may have access, with respect to Purchasers or other
obligors under Notes Receivable as TFC may request. Borrower shall pay the
reasonable expenses of any inspection described above performed or requested by
TFC. With respect to inspections requested by Participants or Lenders other than
TFC, if the inspection is requested in connection with an increase,
modification, or extension of the Revolving Credit Period, the Maximum Loan
Amount, the Acquisition/Construction Loan Maturity Date, the Revolving Loan
Maturity Date or the amount of the Loan or any other modification to this
Agreement, then such inspection shall be at the sole expense of Borrower.
Otherwise, such inspection shall be at the sole expense of the Participant or
Lender requesting the inspection.

and each Lender's own simple negligence, whether or not that simple negligence

penalty, action, judgment, suit, claim, cost, expense or disbursement provided,
however, that Borrower shall not be required to protect and indemnify TFC or any
Lender from the consequences of TFC's or any such Lender's gross negligence,
where that gross negligence is the primary cause of the liability, obligation,
loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, claim, cost, expense or
disbursement for which
80

this Section shall survive the full payment, performance and discharge of the

practices, all Governmental Requirements, the Plans, the Approved Budget, the

and restrictions affecting the Marathon Key Resort. Failure by Borrower to
strictly adhere to the Approved Construction Schedule shall not constitute a
Default or an Event of Default unless and until Borrower has been provided with
written notice of such failure and thirty (30) days to remedy such failure.
However, Borrower shall not, in any event, permit cessation of work for a period
in excess of ten (10) days without the written consent of TFC, unless such
cessation is caused by acts of God, in which case such cessation shall not
exceed thirty (30) days, and shall complete construction of the Improvements on
or before the Improvements Completion Date, free and clear of all liens, except
those as to which Borrower has furnished a bond or other security acceptable to
TFC and otherwise has complied with this Agreement.

expense, correct or cause to be corrected: (a) all defects in the Improvements;
(b) all material departures in the construction of the Improvements from the
Plans; (c) any and all violations of any and all Governmental Requirements, and
any and all violations of any and all covenants, conditions, and
81

any third party applicable to the Marathon Key Resort for the period of time
prior to the conversion of the Marathon Key Resort to a timeshare resort, the
proposed Manager shall be reasonably acceptable to TFC, such management
agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to TFC, and shall be
assigned to TFC in accordance with the terms hereof.
7.2 Negative Covenants. So long as any portion of the Obligations remain
unsatisfied, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Agent and each Lender as
follows:
(a) Limitation on Other Debt, Further Encumbrances. Borrower will not
obtain any financing or grant liens with respect to the Collateral or the
Marathon Key Resort, including, but not limited to timeshare receivable and/or
acquisition/construction financing for the Marathon Key Resort and will use its
best efforts to ensure that the Timeshare Owners' Associations do not obtain
financing or grant liens with respect to the Resorts. Provided that such
financing is in the ordinary course of Borrower's or any Timeshare Owners'
Associations business, it may, however, obtain arms length financing in a manner
consistent with each Lender's rights under this Agreement with respect to any
Units or Intervals, the Resorts or any Properties used in connection with the
Resorts, or any Notes Receivable or other accounts receivable (whether now
existing or created hereafter) other than those included among the Collateral.
(b) Restrictions on Transfers. Except as hereinafter specifically
provided, Borrower shall not, and will use its best efforts to ensure that the
Timeshare Owners' Associations shall not, whether voluntarily or involuntarily,
by operation of law or otherwise, (i) without obtaining the prior written
consent of TFC (which consent may be given, withheld or conditioned by TFC in
TFC's sole discretion), transfer, sell, pledge, convey, hypothecate, factor or
assign all or any portion of the Collateral, the Encumbered Intervals, the
Common Elements relating to the Encumbered Intervals, all or any portion of the
Marathon Key Resort (except for the sale of Intervals at any Resort in the
ordinary course of business) or any Resort facilities or amenities, or contract
to do any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, pursuant to options
to purchase, and so-called "installment sales contracts", "land contracts", or
"contracts for deed", (ii) without obtaining the prior written consent of TFC
(which consent may be given, withheld or
82
conditioned by TFC in TFC's sole discretion), lease or license all or any
portion of the Collateral (except for leases in the ordinary course of
business), the Encumbered Intervals, the Common Elements relating to the
Encumbered Intervals or any Resort facilities or amenities, or change the legal
or actual possession or use thereof, (iii) permit the assignment, transfer,
delegation, change, modification or diminution of the duties or responsibilities
of Borrower, of any manager of the Resorts approved by TFC as manager of the
Resorts (except for an assignment of such duties to a professional management
company or companies reasonably acceptable to TFC in advance) without obtaining
the prior written consent of TFC (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), or (iv) without obtaining the prior written consent of TFC (which
consent may be given, withheld or conditioned by TFC in TFC's sole discretion),
cause or permit the assignment, pledge or other encumbrance of any of the
Operating Contracts or all or any portion of either Borrower's right, title or
interest in the Declaration. Without limiting the generality of the preceding
sentence, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the prior written consent
of TFC (as specified above) shall be required for (A) any transfer of the
Encumbered Intervals, the Common Elements relating to the Encumbered Intervals,
all or any portion of the Marathon Key Resort (except for the sale of Intervals
in the ordinary course of business) or any Resort facilities or amenities or any
part thereof made to a subsidiary or Affiliate of either Borrower, or otherwise,
(B) any transfer of all or any part of the Encumbered Intervals, the Common
Elements relating to the Encumbered Intervals, all or any portion of the
Marathon Key Resort (except for the sale of Intervals in the ordinary course of
business) or any Resort facilities or amenities by either Borrower to its
stockholders or Affiliates of either Borrower, or vice versa, and (C) any
corporate merger or consolidation, disposition or other reorganization, except
as permitted in Section 7.1(c). In the event that TFC is willing to consent to a
transfer which would otherwise be prohibited by this Section 7.2(b) TFC may
condition its consent on such terms as it desires, including, without
limitation, an increase in the Interest Rate and the requirement that Borrower
pay a transfer fee, together with any expenses incurred by TFC in connection
with the granting of such consent (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and expenses). If Borrower violates the terms of this Section 7.2(b), in
addition to any other rights or remedies which TFC may have herein, in any other
Loan Document, or at law or in equity, TFC may by written notice to Borrower
increase, effective immediately as of the date of such violation, the Interest
Rate to the Default Rate.
(c) Use of a Lender's or Agent's Name. Neither Borrower will, nor will any
Affiliate of either Borrower, without the prior written consent of TFC, such
Lender or such TFC participant, use the name of Agent, any Lender or any TFC
participant or the name of any affiliate of TFC, any Lender or any TFC
participant in connection with any of their respective businesses or activities,
except in connection with internal business matters and as required in dealings
with governmental agencies.
(d) Transactions with Affiliates. Without the prior written consent of
TFC, which shall not unreasonably be withheld, Borrower will not enter into any
transaction with any of either Borrower's Agents or any Affiliate of either
Borrower in connection with the Resorts, including, without limitation, relating
to the purchase, financing, loans, sale or exchange of any assets or properties
or the rendering of any service, except in the ordinary course of, and pursuant
to the reasonable requirements of, the operations of the Resorts and upon fair
and reasonable terms.
83
(e) Restrictive Covenants. Borrower will not without TFC's prior written
consent seek, consent to, or otherwise acquiesce in, any change in any private
restrictive covenant, planning or zoning law or other public or private
restriction, which would limit or alter the use of the Resort.
(f) Subordinated Obligations. Borrower will not, directly or indirectly,
without first obtaining the prior written consent of TFC (i) permit any payment
to be made in respect of any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations, direct or
contingent, (the "Subordinated Debt") to any of Borrower's agents, any of its
shareholders or its Affiliates which are subordinated by the terms thereof or by
separate instrument to the payment of principal of, and interest on, the Note;
(ii) permit the amendment, rescission or other modification of any such
subordination provisions of any of Borrower's subordinated obligations in such a
manner as to affect adversely the Lien in and to the Collateral or Lenders'
senior priority position and entitlement as to payment and rights with respect
to the Note and the Obligations, or (iii) permit the prepayment or redemption,
except for mandatory prepayments, of all or any part of Borrower's obligations
to its shareholders or of any subordinated obligations of Borrower except in
accordance with the terms of such subordination, provided, however, that nothing
in this Section 7.2(f) shall prohibit Borrower from making payments on
subordinated obligations in the ordinary course of business without the written
consent of TFC so long as no Default or Event of Default exists. In any event,
neither Borrower shall permit payment to be made on any Subordinated Debt if a
Default or Event of Default exists.
(g) Timeshare Regime. Without TFC's prior written consent, Borrower shall
not, and shall use its best efforts to insure that each Timeshare Owners'
Association does not, amend, modify or terminate the Declarations or other
Timeshare Documents, or any other restrictive covenants, agreements or easements
regarding the Resorts (except for routine non-substantive modifications which
have no impact on the Collateral). Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower
shall not assign its rights as "developer" under the Declarations without TFC's
prior written consent, or file or permit to be filed any additional covenants,
conditions, easements or restrictions against or affecting the Resorts (or any
portion thereof) without TFC's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
(h) Name Change. Neither Borrower will change its name without prior
written consent from TFC.
(i) Collateral. Borrower shall not take any action (nor permit or consent
to the taking of any action) which might impair the value of the Collateral or

permit any amendment to or modification of the form or terms of any of the
Pledged Notes Receivable, Mortgages or, except as specifically provided herein
above, the other Timeshare Documents.
(j) Marketing/Sales. Borrower shall not market, attempt to sell or sell or
permit or justify any sales or attempted sales of any Intervals except in
compliance with the Timeshare Act and applicable laws in state and other
jurisdictions where marketing, sales or solicitation activities occur.
(k) Intentionally Omitted.
84

herein.
(m) Modification of Other Documents. Borrower shall not amend or modify
the Custodial Agreement, Servicing Agreement or any Management Agreements.
(n) No Conditional Sale Contracts, Etc. Without the express written
consent of TFC (which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in TFC's
sole discretion), no materials, equipment, or fixtures to be used in connection
with the construction or operation of the Marathon Key Resort and the
Improvements shall be purchased or installed pursuant to security agreements,
lease agreements, conditional sale contracts or any other arrangements or
understandings pursuant to which a security interest or title is retained by any
Person other than Lenders or the right is reserved or accrues to any Person
other than Lenders to remove or repossess any materials, equipment, or fixtures
intended to be used in the construction or operation of the Improvements.
(o) Changes in Plans and Specifications, Approved Budget, or Approved
Construction Schedule. Without the prior written approval of TFC, there shall be
no change in the Plans, the Approved Budget, the Approved Construction Schedule,
the Architectural Contract, the Construction Contracts or any of the work or
materials for the Improvements which would (a) together with costs associated
with prior changes in the Plans, the Approved Budget, the Approved Construction
Schedule, or any of the work or materials for the Improvements, result in a
material increase in the total costs of such changes (for purposes of this
section, an increase of more than $100,000 shall constitute a "material
increase"); (b) regardless of cost, constitute a material change in structure,
design, function, or exterior appearance of any of the Improvements; (c) cause
the estimated time for Completion of the Improvements to extend beyond the
Improvements Completion Date or cause any of the other dates in the Approved
Construction Schedule to extend beyond ten (10) days; (d) reduce the value of
the Collateral; or (e) extend the final Improvements Completion Date by more
than thirty (30) days. Requested changes shall be submitted to TFC for approval
on a form acceptable to TFC accompanied by a copy of the plans and
specifications or a revised budget. TFC shall review and approve or disapprove
any such change request within ten (10) days of receipt of such written request
from Borrower. As a condition to any such approval, TFC may require confirmation
satisfactory to TFC of the cost increase, if any, which would result from
performance of the work contemplated under such change. If it appears that
performance of such work shall result in such an increase, TFC may condition its
approval on a Borrower's deposit in the amount of such increase or other
evidence satisfactory to TFC in its discretion that Borrower has the funds
necessary to provide for such cost increase.
(p) Assignment of Management Agreements. Borrower shall not assign,
mortgage, hypothecate or grant a security interest in any of the Management
Agreements relating to the Marathon Key Resort or the other Resorts.
(q) Reservation System. Borrower shall not grant a security interest in,
sell, pledge, assign or otherwise transfer any of its interest in the
reservation system relating to the Marathon Key Resort or any of the other
Resorts.
85

Marathon Key Resort to a timeshare resort, condominium units or other form of
common interest ownership or in any other way alter the use of the Marathon Key
Resort as a hotel, or file any declaration without the prior written consent of
TFC; provided, however, that TFC agrees not to unreasonably withhold its consent
to a conversion of the Marathon Key Resort to a timeshare resort.

for in Section 9.2, shall constitute a commercially reasonable disposition of
the Collateral sold at any such sale or sales, and otherwise, commercially
reasonable action on the part of Agent. Agent shall also have the right, in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, to foreclose the lien of the
Marathon Key Resort Mortgage.
(e) Retention of Collateral. At its discretion, retain such portion of the
Collateral as shall aggregate in value to an amount equal to the aggregate
amount of the Loans, in satisfaction of the Obligations, whenever the
circumstances are such that Agent is entitled on behalf of Lenders and elects to
do so under applicable law.
(f) Receiver. Apply by appropriate judicial proceedings for appointment of
a receiver for the Collateral, or any part thereof, and Borrower hereby consents
to any such appointment.
(g) Purchase of Collateral. Buy the Collateral at any public or private
sale.
(h) Completion of Improvements. Agent, at its discretion, may perform all
Work necessary to complete the Improvements substantially in accordance with the
Plans, Governmental requirements, and the requirements of any lessee, if
applicable, and to employ watchmen and other safeguards to protect the Marathon
Key Resort.
(i) Exercise of Other Rights. Agent, on behalf of each Lender, shall have
all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, the Other Loan
Documents and other legal and equitable rights to which it may be entitled,
including, without limitation, and without notice to Borrower, the right to
continue to collect all payments made on the Pledged Notes Receivable, and to
apply such payments to the Obligations, and to xxx in its own name the maker of
any defaulted Pledged Notes Receivable. Agent may also exercise any and all
other rights or remedies afforded by any other applicable laws or by the Loan
Documents as Agent shall deem appropriate, at law, in equity or otherwise,
including, but not limited to, the right to bring suit or other proceeding,
either for specific performance of any covenant or condition contained in the
Loan Documents or in aid of the exercise of any right or remedy granted to Agent
in the Loan Documents. Agent shall also have the right to require Borrower to
assemble any of the Collateral not in Agent's possession, at Borrower's expense,
and make it available to Agent at a place to be determined by Agent which is
reasonably convenient to both parties, and shall, on behalf of each Lender, have
the right to take immediate possession of all of the Collateral, and may enter
the Resort or any of the premises of Borrower or wherever the Collateral shall
be located, with or without process of law wherever the Collateral may be, and,
to the extent such premises are not the property of Agent, to keep and store the
same on said premises until sold (and if said premises be the property of
Borrower, Borrower agrees not to charge Agent or any Lender for use and
occupancy, rent, or storage of the Collateral, for a period of at least ninety
(90) days after sale or disposition of the Collateral).
89
9.2 Notice of Sale. Reasonable notification of time and place of any
public sale of the Collateral or reasonable notification of the time after which
any private sale or other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made
shall be sent to Borrower and to any other person entitled under the Code to
notice; provided, however, that if the Collateral threatens to decline speedily
in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Agent may sell
or otherwise dispose of the Collateral without notification, advertisement or
other notice of any kind. It is agreed that notice sent not less than five (5)
calendar days prior to the taking of the action to which such notice relates is
reasonable notification and notice for the purposes of this Section 9.2. Agent
shall have the right to bid at any public or private sale on behalf of Lenders.
Out of money arising from any such sale, Agent shall retain an amount equal to
all of its costs and charges, including attorneys' fees for advice, counsel or
other legal services or for pursuing, reclaiming, seeking to reclaim, taking,
keeping, removing, storing and advertising such Collateral for sale, selling
same and any and all other charges and expenses in connection therewith and in
satisfying any prior Liens thereon. Any balance shall be applied upon the
Obligations, and in the event of deficiency, Borrower shall remain liable to
Lenders. In the event of any surplus, such surplus shall be paid to Borrower or
to such other Persons as may be legally entitled to such surplus. If, by reason
of any suit or proceeding of any kind, nature or description against Borrower,
or by Borrower or any other party against Agent or any Lender, which in such
Agent's sole discretion makes it advisable for Agent to seek counsel for the
protection and preservation of Lenders' security interest, or to defend the
interest of Lenders, such expenses and counsel fees shall be allowed to Agent
and the same shall be made a further charge and Lien upon the Collateral.
In view of the fact that federal and state securities laws may impose
certain restrictions on the methods by which a sale of Collateral comprised of
Securities may be effected after an Event of Default, Borrower agrees that upon
the occurrence or existence of an Event of Default, Agent may, on behalf of
Lenders, from time to time, attempt to sell all or any part of such Collateral
by means of a private placement restricting the bidding and prospective
purchasers to those who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for
investment only and not for, or with a view to, distribution. In so doing, Agent
may solicit offers to buy such Collateral, or any part of it for cash, from a
limited number of investors deemed by Agent, in its reasonable judgment, to be
responsible parties who might be interested in purchasing the Collateral, and if
Agent solicits such offers from not less than two (2) such investors, then the
acceptance by Agent of the highest offer obtained therefrom shall be deemed to
be a commercially reasonable method of disposition of such Collateral.
9.3 Application of Collateral; Termination of Agreements. Upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default: (i) each Lender may, with or without
proceeding with such sale or foreclosure or demanding payment or performance of
the Obligations, without notice, terminate each Lender's further performance
under this Agreement or any other agreement or agreements between any Lender and
Borrower, without further liability or obligation by Agent or any Lender; (ii)
Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, at any time, appropriate and apply on any
Obligations any and all Collateral in its (or the Lockbox Agent's) possession
and (iii) each Lender may apply any and all balances, credits, deposits,
accounts, reserves, indebtedness or other moneys due or owing to Borrower held
by any Lender hereunder or under any other financing agreement or otherwise,
whether accrued or not, subject to Section 2.8 hereof. Neither such termination,
nor the termination of this Agreement by lapse of time, the giving of notice or
otherwise, shall absolve, release or otherwise affect the liability of Borrower
in respect of
90
transactions prior to such termination, or affect any of the Liens, security
interests, rights, powers and remedies of Agent or Lenders, but they shall, in
all events, continue until all of the Obligations are satisfied.
9.4 Rights of Lender Regarding Collateral. In addition to all other rights
possessed by Agent or Lenders, Agent, at its option, may on behalf of each
Lender from time to time after there shall have occurred an Event of Default,
and so long as such Event of Default remains uncured, at its sole discretion,
take the following actions:
(a) Transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of Agent or
its nominee;
(b) Take control of any proceeds of any of the Collateral;
(c) Extend or renew the Loan and grant releases, compromises or
indulgences with respect to the Obligations, any portion thereof, any extension
or renewal thereof, or any security therefor, to any obligor hereunder or
thereunder; and
(d) Exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the
Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations
for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
9.5 Delegation of Duties and Rights. Agent may execute any of its duties
and/or exercise any of its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents by or
through its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or other
representatives.
9.6 Agent and/or Lenders not in Control. Except as expressly provided
herein or in any Loan Document, none of the covenants or other provisions
contained in this Agreement or in any Loan Document shall give Agent or any
Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs and/or management
of Borrower.
9.7 Waivers. The acceptance by Agent or any Lender at any time and from
time to time of partial payments of the Loan or performance of the Obligations
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default then existing. No
waiver by Agent or any Lender of any Event of Default shall be deemed to be a
waiver of any other or subsequent Event of Default. No delay or omission by
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or remedy under the Loan Documents
shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver thereof or an
acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any
other right or remedy under the Loan Documents or otherwise. The continued or
subsequent funding of any Advance under this Loan Agreement after a Default or
Event of Default has occurred shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of
Default then existing and shall not in any way limit or impair Agent's rights or
remedies under the Loan Documents. Further, except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement or by applicable law, Borrower and each and every
surety, endorser, guarantor and other party liable for the payment or
performance of all or any portion of the Obligations, severally waive notice of
the occurrence of any Event of Default, presentment and demand for payment,
protest, and notice of protest, notice of intention to accelerate, acceleration
and nonpayment, and agree that their liability shall not be affected by any
renewal or extension in the time of payment of the
91
Loan, or by any release or change in any security for the payment or performance
of the Loan, regardless of the number of such renewals, extensions, releases or
changes.
9.8 Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies available to any Lender or
Agent on behalf of Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative of and
in addition to all other rights and remedies granted under any of the Loan
Documents, at law or in equity, whether or not the Loan is due and payable and
whether or not Agent shall have instituted any suit for collection or other
action in connection with the Loan Documents.
9.9 Expenditures by Lenders or Agent. Any sums expended by or on behalf of
Agent or Lenders pursuant to the exercise of any right or remedy provided herein
shall become part of the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default
Rate, from the date of such expenditure until the date repaid.
9.10 Diminution in Value of Collateral. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall
have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for any diminution or loss in
value of any of the Collateral, specifically including that which may arise from
Agent or any Lender's negligence or inadvertence, whether such negligence or
inadvertence is the sole or concurring cause of any damage, but specifically
excluding any diminution or loss in value which is actually and proximately
caused by Agent's failure to retain the Pledged Notes Receivable in a
fire-resistant filing cabinet as provided in Section 3.6 above.
9.11 Agent's Knowledge. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default unless Agent has actual
knowledge of the Event of Default or has received a notice from a Lender or
Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such Event of Default. Each
Lender agrees that upon learning of the existence of an Event of Default, it
will promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Any such notice by a Lender,
shall be in writing sufficient to identify the nature of the Event of Default.
9.12 Lender's Enforcement Rights. Each Lender has assigned to Agent its
absolute and unconditional right to enforce the payment of its Note. No Lender
may unilaterally enforce any Lien or security interest in the Collateral, or
bring suit against Borrower to enforce such Lender's rights hereunder or under
its Note.
SECTION 10 -- CERTAIN RIGHTS OF LENDERS
10.1 Protection of Collateral. Agent on behalf of each Lender may at any
time and from time to time take such actions as it deems necessary or
appropriate to protect Lender's Liens and security interests in and to preserve
the Collateral, and to establish, maintain and protect the enforceability of
Lender's rights with respect thereto, all at the expense of Borrower. Borrower
agrees to cooperate fully with all of Agent's efforts to preserve the Collateral
and Lender's Liens, security interests and rights and will take such actions to
preserve the Collateral and Lender's Liens, security interests and rights as
Agent may direct, including, without limitation, by promptly paying upon
Lender's demand therefor, all documentary stamp taxes or other taxes that may be
or may become due in respect of any of the Collateral. All of Agent's expenses
of preserving the Collateral and each Lender's liens and security interests and
rights therein shall be added to the Loan.
92
10.2 Performance by Agent. If Borrower fails to perform any agreement
contained herein, Agent may itself perform, or cause the performance of, such
agreement on behalf of Lenders, and the expenses of Agent incurred in connection
therewith shall be payable by Borrower under Section 10.5 below. In no event,
however, shall Agent or any Lender have any obligation or duties whatsoever to
perform any covenant or agreement of Borrower contained herein or in any of the
Loan Documents, Timeshare Documents or Operating Contracts, and any such
performance by Agent shall be wholly discretionary with Agent. The performance
by Agent, of any agreement or covenant of Borrower on any occasion shall not
give rise to any duty on the part of Agent to perform any such agreements or
covenants on any other occasion or at any time. In addition, Borrower
acknowledges that neither Agent nor any Lender shall at any time or under any
circumstances whatsoever have any duty to Borrower or to any third party to
exercise any of Lender's rights or remedies hereunder.
10.3 No Liability of Lender. Neither the acceptance of this Agreement by
Agent and each Lender, nor the exercise of any rights hereunder by Lender or
Agent on its behalf, shall be construed in any way as an assumption by Agent or
any Lender of any obligations, responsibilities or duties of Borrower arising in
connection with any Resort or under the Timeshare Documents or Timeshare Acts,
Architects Contracts, Construction Contracts, or any of the Operating Contracts,
or in connection with any other business of Borrower, or the Collateral, or
otherwise bind Agent or any Lender to the performance of any obligations with
respect to any Resort or the Collateral; it being expressly understood that
neither Agent nor Lender shall be obligated to perform, observe or discharge any
obligation, responsibility, duty, or liability of Borrower with respect to any
Resort or any of the Collateral, or under any of the Timeshare Documents, the
Timeshare Acts, Architects Contracts, Construction Contracts, or under any of
the Operating Contracts, including, but not limited to, appearing in or
defending any action, expending any money or incurring any expense in connection
therewith. Without limitation of the foregoing, neither this Agreement, any
action or actions on the part of Agent taken hereunder, the foreclosure of the
Marathon Key Resort, nor the acquisition of the Pledged Notes Receivable and the
Mortgages by Agent prior to or following the occurrence of an Event of Default
shall constitute an assumption by Agent or any Lender of any obligations of
Borrower with respect to any Resort, the Improvements or the Pledged Notes
Receivable, the Mortgages or any documents or instruments executed in connection
therewith, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all of its obligations
thereunder or with respect thereto. Borrower agrees to indemnify, protect,
defend and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all
claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, suits, costs
and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and court costs,
asserted against or incurred by Agent and each Lender by reason of, arising out
of, or connected in any way with (i) any failure or alleged failure of Borrower
to perform any of its covenants or obligations with respect to each Resort or
the Purchasers of any of the Intervals, (ii) a breach of any certification,
representation, warranty or covenant of Borrower set forth in any of the Loan
Documents, (iii) the ownership of the Pledged Notes Receivable, the Mortgages
and the rights, titles and interests assigned hereby, or intended so to be, (iv)
the debtor-creditor relationships between Borrower on the one hand, and the
Purchasers, Agent or Lender, as the case may be, on the other, or (v) the
Pledged Notes Receivable, the Mortgages or the operation of the Resorts or sale
of Intervals. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify, protect, defend and hold
Agent and each Lender harmless as provided in this Agreement are absolute,
unconditional, present and continuing, and shall not be dependent upon or
affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any
claim, demand
93
or suit from which Agent or any Lender is indemnified. The indemnity provisions
in this Section 10.3 shall survive the satisfaction of the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement, and remain binding and enforceable against
Borrower, or its successors or assigns. Borrower hereby waives all notices with
respect to any losses, damages, liabilities, suits, costs and expenses, and all
other demands whatsoever hereby indemnified, and agrees that its obligations
under this Agreement shall not be affected by any circumstances, whether or not
referred to above, which might otherwise constitute legal or equitable
discharges of its obligations hereunder.
10.4 Right to Defend Action Affecting Security. Agent may, at Borrower's
expense, appear in and defend any action or proceeding at law or in equity which
Agent in good faith believes may affect the security interests granted under
this Agreement, including without limitation, with respect to Pledged Notes
Receivable or Mortgages, the value of the Collateral or each Lender's rights
under any of the Loan Documents.
10.5 Expenses. All expenses payable by Borrower, under any provision of
this Agreement shall be an Obligation of Borrower and shall be paid by Borrower
to Agent, upon demand, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date
of expense until repaid by Borrower.
10.6 Lender's Right of Set-Off. Subject to Section 2.13 hereof, each
Lender shall have the right to set-off against any Collateral any Obligations
then due and unpaid by Borrower, provided Borrower is in Default.
10.7 No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Agent in exercising any
right, remedy or power under this Agreement or in giving or insisting upon
strict performance by Borrower hereunder or in giving notice hereunder shall
operate as a waiver of the same or any other power or right, and no single or
partial exercise of any such power or right shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such power or right. Agent,
notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon
the strict performance by Borrower of any and all of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement to be performed by Borrower. The collection and application of
proceeds, the entering and taking possession of the Collateral, and the exercise
by Agent of the rights of Lenders contained in the Loan Documents and this
Agreement shall not cure or waive any default, or affect any notice of default,
or invalidate any acts done pursuant to such notice. No waiver by Agent or any
Lender of any breach or default of or by any party hereunder shall be deemed to
alter or affect Lender's rights hereunder with respect to any prior or
subsequent default.
10.8 Right of Agent to Extend Time of Payment, Substitute, Release
Security, Etc. Without affecting the liability of any Person or entity including
without limitation, any Purchasers, for the payment of any of the Obligations or
without affecting or impairing Lender's Lien on the Collateral, or the remainder
thereof, as security for the full amount of the Loan unpaid and the Obligations,
Agent may from time to time, without notice: (a) release any Person liable for
the payment of the Loan, (b) extend the time or otherwise alter the terms of
payment of the Loan, (c) accept additional security for the Obligations of any
kind, including deeds of trust or mortgages and security agreements, (d) alter,
substitute or release any property securing the Obligations, (e) realize upon
any collateral for the payment of all or any portion of the Loan in
94
such order and manner as it may deem fit, or (f) join in any subordination or
other agreement affecting this Agreement or the lien or charge thereof.
10.9 Assignment of Lender's Interest. Each Lender shall have the right to
assign its Loans and all or any portion of its rights in or pursuant to this
Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to any subsequent holder or holders of
its Note or the Obligations evidenced thereby, provided that each Lender shall
give Agent concurrent written notice of each such assignment.
10.10 Communication with Purchaser. Borrower authorizes Agent (but Agent
shall not be obligated) to: (i) upon an Event of Default, communicate at any
time and from time to time with any Purchaser or any other Person primarily or
secondarily liable under a Pledged Note Receivable with regard to the Lien of
Agent thereon and any other matter relating thereto; and (ii) if no Event of
Default has occurred, with the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, communicate from time to time with randomly selected
Purchasers for the purpose of auditing and verifying the records of Borrower
and/or Lender.
10.11 Collection of the Notes. Borrower hereby directs and authorizes each
party liable for the payment of the Pledged Notes Receivable, and at Agent's
request shall direct in writing each such party, to pay each installment thereon
to Lockbox Agent pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, unless and until directed
otherwise by written notice from Agent, after which such parties are and shall
be directed to make all further payments on the Pledged Notes Receivable in
accordance with the directions of Agent.
Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to
require that all payments becoming due under the Pledged Notes Receivable be
paid directly to Agent as agent for Lenders, and Agent is hereby authorized to
receive, collect, hold and apply the same in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement. In the event that following the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Agent or Lockbox Agent does not receive any installment of principal or
interest due and payable under any of the Pledged Notes Receivable on or prior
to the date upon which such installment becomes due, Agent may, at its election
(but without any obligation to do so), give or cause Lockbox Agent to give
notice of such default to the defaulting party or parties, and Agent shall have
the right (but not the obligation), subject to the terms of such notes, to
accelerate payment of the unpaid balance of any of the Pledged Notes Receivable
in default and to foreclose each of the Mortgages securing the payment thereof,
if applicable, and to enforce any other remedies available to the holder of such
Pledged Notes Receivable with respect to such default. Borrower hereby further
authorizes, directs and empowers Agent (and Lockbox Agent or any other Person as
may be designated by Agent in writing) to collect and receive all checks and
drafts evidencing such payments and to endorse such checks or drafts in the name
of Borrower and upon such endorsements, to collect and receive the money
therefor. The right to endorse checks and drafts granted pursuant to the
preceding sentence is irrevocable by Borrower, and the banks or banks paying
such checks or drafts upon such endorsements, as well as the signers of the
same, shall be as fully protected as though the checks or drafts have been
endorsed by Borrower.
10.12 Power of Attorney. Borrower does hereby irrevocably constitute and
appoint Agent as Borrower's true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with
full power of substitution, for Borrower and in Borrower's name, place and
stead, or otherwise, to (a) endorse any checks or drafts payable to Borrower in
the name of Borrower and in favor of Agent on behalf of each
95
Lender as provided in Section 10.11 above, (b) to demand and receive from time
to time any and all property, rights, titles, interests and liens hereby sold,
assigned and transferred, or intended so to be, and to give receipts for same,
(c) from time to time to institute and prosecute in Agent's own name any and all
proceedings at law, in equity, or otherwise, that Agent may deem proper in order
to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, of any kind, in and to
the property, rights, titles, interests and liens hereby sold, assigned or
transferred, or intended so to be, and to defend and compromise any and all
actions, suits or proceedings in respect of any of the said property, rights,
titles, interests and liens, (d) upon an Event of Default to change Borrower's
post office mailing address, and (e) generally to do all and any such acts and
things in relation to the Collateral as Agent shall in good xxxxx xxxx
advisable. Borrower hereby declares that the appointment made and the powers
granted pursuant to this Section 10.12 are coupled with an interest and are and
shall be irrevocable by Borrower in any manner, or for any reason, unless and
until a release of the same is executed by Agent and duly recorded in the
appropriate public records of Palm Beach County, Florida.
10.13 Relief from Automatic Stay, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
law, in the event Borrower shall make application for or seek relief or
protection under the federal bankruptcy code ("Bankruptcy Code") or other Debtor
Relief Laws, or in the event that any involuntary petition is filed against
Borrower under such Code or other Debtor Relief Laws, and not dismissed with
prejudice within 45 days, the automatic stay provisions of Section 362 of the
Bankruptcy Code are hereby modified as to Agent and each Lender to the extent
necessary to implement the provisions hereof permitting set-off and the filing
of financing statements or other instruments or documents; and Agent and each
Lender shall automatically and without demand or notice (each of which is hereby
waived) be entitled to immediate relief from any automatic stay imposed by
Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, on or against the exercise of
the rights and remedies otherwise available to Lenders as provided in the Loan
Documents.
10.14 Servicing Agent. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that upon written
notice from Agent, to be given at any time following a default by the Servicer
that remains uncured after the applicable cure period under the Servicing
Agreement or following a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, in Agent's
sole and absolute discretion, the Servicing Agent may be replaced by a servicing
entity selected by Agent in its sole and absolute discretion, for the purpose of
servicing all Notes Receivable comprising the Collateral.
SECTION 11 -- TERM OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the security
interests granted hereby and the duties, covenants and liabilities of Borrower
hereunder and all the terms, conditions and provisions hereof relating thereto
shall continue to be fully operative until all of the Obligations have been
satisfied in full. Borrower expressly agrees that if Borrower makes a payment to
Agent on behalf of any Lender, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or otherwise required to
be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief
Laws, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of
such repayment, the Obligations or any part thereof intended to be satisfied and
the Liens provided for hereunder securing the same shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

12.2 Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
made by Borrower herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement,
document, instrument or certificate delivered by or on behalf of Borrower under
or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon
by Lenders and shall survive the delivery to Lenders of such Loan Documents (and
each part thereof), regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
Lenders.
12.3 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT AS
MAY BE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED THEREIN TO THE CONTRARY) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND, EXCLUSIVE OF
ITS CHOICE OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
12.4 Limitation on Interest. Agent, each Lender and Borrower intend to
comply at all times with applicable usury laws. All agreements between Agent,
each Lender and Borrower, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether
written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason
of demand or acceleration of the maturity of the Note or otherwise, shall the
interest contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to any
Lender exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable usury laws.
If, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, of
the Note or of any other Loan Documents shall involve transcending the limit of
such validity prescribed by any law which a Court of competent jurisdiction may
deem applicable hereto, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be
reduced to the limit of such validity; and if from any circumstance Agent or any
Lender shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law
which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive
interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal of Loan and not to
the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid
balance of principal of the Loan, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All
interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full
period until payment in full of the principal so that the interest on the Loan
for such full period shall not exceed the highest lawful rate. Borrower agrees
that in determining whether or not any interest payment under the Loan Documents
exceeds the highest lawful rate, any non-principal payment (except payments
specifically described in the Loan Documents as "interest") including without
limitation, prepayment fees and late charges, shall to the maximum extent not
prohibited by law, be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.
Agent and each Lender hereby expressly disclaim any intent to contract for,
charge or receive interest in an amount which exceeds the highest lawful rate.
The provisions of the Note, this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents are
hereby modified to the extent necessary to conform with the limitations and
provisions of this Section, and this Section shall govern over all other
provisions in any document or agreement now or hereafter existing. This Section
shall never be superseded or waived unless there is a written document executed
by Agent, each Lender and Borrower,
98
expressly declaring the usury limitation of this Agreement to be null and void,
and no other method or language shall be effective to supersede or waive this
paragraph.
12.5 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under
present or future laws effective during the term thereof, such provision shall
be fully severable, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision
had never comprised a part hereof or thereof, and the remaining provisions
hereof or thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be
affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance
therefrom. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement and/or
the Loan Documents (as the case may be) a provision as similar in terms to such
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal,
valid and enforceable.
12.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, TFC, and each Lender
and their respective successors and assigns; provided that Borrower may not
transfer or assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, the
Commitment or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of TFC.
This Agreement and the transactions provided for or contemplated hereunder or
under any of the Loan Documents are intended solely for the benefit of the
parties hereto. No third party shall have any rights or derive any benefits
under or with respect to this Agreement, the Commitment or the other Loan
Documents except as provided in advance in a writing signed on behalf of TFC and
each Lender.

or provision hereof may be waived, except by written instrument signed by
Borrower, TFC and Agent on behalf of itself and Lenders.
12.8 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect
as if the signature thereto and hereto were on the same instrument. This
Agreement shall become effective upon Agent's receipt of one or more
counterparts hereof signed by Borrower.
12.9 Lenders and Agent Not Fiduciaries. The relationship between Borrower,
Agent and each Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and TFC, Agent and
Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no
term or provision of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem
the relationship between Borrower, Agent and Lenders to be other than that of
debtor and creditor.
12.10 Return of Notes Receivable.
(a) In the event Borrower complies with its Obligations under Section
2.9(b) of this Agreement with respect to Pledged Notes Receivable pursuant to
which a default by the Purchaser thereof has occurred, and Borrower thereafter
desires to enforce such Note Receivable against the Purchaser thereof, then
provided that no Event of Default has occurred which has not been cured to TFC's
satisfaction (as evidenced by a written acceptance of such cure executed by
TFC), and no event has occurred which with notice, the passage of time or both,
would constitute
99
an Event of Default, then within five (5) days after its receipt of a written
request from Borrower, Custodian shall deliver such Ineligible Note Receivable
to Borrower, provided that such delivery shall be for the sole purpose of
enforcing Agent's rights thereunder and Agent, notwithstanding such delivery,
shall continue to have, on behalf of Lenders, a first priority security interest
in any such note until payment in full is made and such note is released to
Borrower.
(b) In the event that all Obligations hereunder are fully satisfied, then
within five (5) days thereafter, Agent shall endorse the Pledged Notes
Receivable "Pay to the order of ______________________ without recourse", and
shall cause the Custodian to deliver such Pledged Notes Receivable, together
with any other nonrecourse Collateral reassignment documents requested and
prepared by Borrower, at Borrower's sole cost and expense.
12.11 Accounting Principles. Where the character or amount of any asset or
liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined or any
consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made for the
purposes of this Agreement, the same shall be determined or made in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied at the time in effect, to the extent applicable,
except where such principles are inconsistent with the requirements of this
Agreement.
12.12 Total Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
including the Exhibits and Schedules to them, is the entire agreement between
the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, incorporates or rescinds all
prior agreements and understandings between the parties hereto relating to the
subject matter hereof, cannot be changed or terminated orally or by course of
conduct, and shall be deemed effective as of the date it is accepted by Agent at
the offices set forth above.
12.13 Litigation. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW
WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, BORROWER, TFC AND EACH LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND OR CLARIFY ANY RIGHT,
POWER, REMEDY OR DEFENSE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN, WHETHER

CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF
ANY PARTY; AND EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED
BEFORE A JUDGE AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. EACH OF BORROWER, TFC AND EACH LENDER
FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LITIGATION IN WHICH A
JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL
CANNOT OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. FURTHER, BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF TFC OR ANY LENDER, NOR TFC'S OR ANY LENDER'S COUNSEL
HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT TFC OR ANY LENDER WOULD NOT, IN
THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL
PROVISION. BORROWER
100
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO
TFC'S AND EACH LENDER'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS.
The waiver and stipulations of Borrower, Agent, and each Lender in this
Section 12.13 shall survive the final payment or performance of all of the
Obligations of Borrower and the resulting termination of this Agreement.
12.14 Incorporation of Exhibits. This Agreement, together with all
Exhibits and Schedules hereto, constitute one document and agreement which is

taking, such provisions shall be applicable whether such action is taken
directly or indirectly by such Person.

matter of convenience of reference only; such section headings are not a part of
the Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 13 -- AGENT
13.1 Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby accepts the appointment
of and irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf
and to exercise such powers as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms
hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent
shall not be required to take any action which exposes Agent to personal
liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. Agent agrees
to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by Borrower
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The appointment and authority of Agent
hereunder shall terminate upon the payment of the Obligations in full.
101
13.2 Nature of Agent's Duties. Agent shall have no duties or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the
other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative
in nature. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary
relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to
impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Agent shall not
have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect to
Borrower, whether coming into its possession before the date hereof or at any
time or times thereafter (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement). If
Agent seeks the consent or approval of Lenders, to the taking or refraining from
taking any action hereunder, Agent shall send notice thereof to each Lender.
13.3 UCC Filings. Each of Borrower, Agent and Lender expressly recognizes
and agrees that Agent shall be listed as the assignee or secured party of record
on the various UCC filings required to be made hereunder in order to perfect the
grant of a security interest in the Collateral herein for the benefit of
Lenders, that such listing shall be for administrative convenience only in
creating a single secured party to take certain actions hereunder on behalf of
the holders of the Obligations, and that such listing will not affect in any way
the status of such holders as the beneficial holders of such security interest.
In addition, such listing shall impose no duties on Agent other than those
expressly and specifically undertaken in accordance with this Section 13.
13.4 Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to
be taken by it or them as Agent under or in connection with this Agreement
(including Agent's servicing, administering or collecting Receivables) except
for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting
the foregoing, Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for
Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by
it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii)
makes no warranty or representation to Lender and shall not be responsible to
any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement on the part of Borrower or to inspect the property
(including the books and records) of Borrower (except as otherwise expressly set
forth in this Agreement); (iv) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the
due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or
value of this Agreement, or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto, or any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, the Loan
Documents, or for any failure of Borrower or any of its Affiliates to perform
its obligation under the Loan Documents; and (v) shall incur no liability under
or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice (including notice by
telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telex or telecopier) believed by it to be genuine and to be or to have been
signed or sent by the proper party or parties. Agent may, but shall not be
required to, at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any
actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the other
Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and Agent
shall be absolutely
102
entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall
not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any
action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it
shall have received such instructions from the requisite Lender, as applicable
in accordance with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Lender shall
not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent
acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents in accordance with the instructions of the requisite Lender as
applicable in accordance with this Agreement. Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy,
telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
reasonably believed by it or them to be genuine and correct and to have been
signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by Agent.
13.5 Agent and Affiliates. To the extent that Agent or any of its
Affiliates are or shall become Lenders hereunder, Agent or such Affiliate, in
such capacity, shall have each and every right and power under this Agreement as
would any other Lender hereunder (including the right to vote upon any matter
upon which any of Lenders are entitled to vote) and, without exception, may
exercise the same as though it were not an Agent. Agent and its Affiliates may
engage in any kind of business with Borrower, any of its Affiliates and any
Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower or any of its
Affiliates, all as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to
account therefor to Lenders.
13.6 Credit Decision. Independently, and without reliance upon Agent, each
Lender has, to the extent it deems appropriate, made and shall continue to make
(a) its own independent investigation of the financial affairs and business
affairs of Borrower in connection with any action or inaction with respect to
the transactions contemplated herein, and (b) its own evaluation of the
creditworthiness of Borrower and of the value of the Collateral, and, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement, Agent has had and shall have no duty or
responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with
respect thereto. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals,
statements, representation or warranties herein or in any document, certificate
or other writing delivered in connection herewith (unless made by Agent) or for
the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectibility, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement (except with respect
to Agent's obligations hereunder) or the Loan Documents or the financial
condition of Borrower or the value of the Collateral. Except as expressly herein
provided with respect to its duties as agent, Agent shall not be required to
make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the
terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the
financial condition of Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any
Event of Default.
13.7 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify Agent (to the extent
not reimbursed by Borrower), ratably in accordance with each Lender's Pro Rata
Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement
or any action taken or omitted by Agent under this Agreement; provided, however,
that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties,
103
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements resulting from
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by Borrower) ratably in accordance with Lender's Pro Rata Percentage,
promptly upon demand, for any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with the administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement. The rights of Agent under this Section
13.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this
paragraph, the term "Agent" shall include Agent, its affiliates and their
respective officers, directors, employees and agents.
13.8 Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty days
notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation Lenders,
including TFC, shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, and such
resignation shall not be effective until such successor Agent is appointed and
has accepted such appointment. If no successor Agent shall have been so
appointed and accepted such appointment within seventy-five (75) days after
Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then Agent may, on behalf of Lenders,
appoint a successor Agent, which successor Agent shall be experienced in the
types of transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be
discharged from all further duties and obligations under this Agreement. After
any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this
Section 13 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.
13.9 Duty of Care. Agent shall endeavor to exercise the same care in its
administration of the Loan Documents as it exercises with respect to similar
transactions in which it is involved and where no other co-lenders or
participants are involved; provided that the liability of Agent for failing to
do so shall be limited as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section
13.
13.10 Delegation of Agency.
(a) If at any time or times it shall be necessary or prudent in connection
with the exercise or protection of Agent's rights hereunder in order to conform
to any law of any jurisdiction in which any of the Collateral shall be located,
or Agent shall be advised by counsel that it is so necessary or prudent in the
interest of Lenders, or Agent shall deem it necessary for its own protection in
the performance of its duties hereunder Agent and, to the extent required by
Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver all instruments and agreements
reasonably necessary or proper to constitute another bank or trust company, or
one or more individuals approved by Agent (each an "Approved Delegate"), either
to act as co-agent or co-agents or trustee of all or any of the Collateral,
jointly with Agent originally named herein or any successor, or to act as
separate agent or agents or trustee of any such Collateral. Every separate agent
and every co-agent and every trustee, other than any agent which may be
appointed as successor to Agent, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be appointed to act and be such, subject to the following provisions and
conditions, namely:
104
(i) except as otherwise provided herein, all rights, remedies,
powers, duties and obligations conferred upon, reserved or
imposed upon Agent in respect of the custody, control and
management of moneys, paper or securities shall be
exercised solely by Agent hereunder;
(ii) all rights, remedies, powers, duties and obligations
conferred upon, reserved to or imposed upon Agent
hereunder shall be conferred, reserved or imposed and
exercised or performed by Agent except to the extent that
the instrument appointing such separate agent or separate
agents or co-agent or co-agents or trustee shall otherwise
provide, and except to the extent that under any law of
any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are
to be performed, Agent shall be incompetent or unqualified
to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights,
remedies, powers, duties and obligations shall be
exercised and performed by such separate agents or
co-agent or co-agents to the extent specifically directed
in writing by Agent;
(iii) no power given thereby to, or which it is provided hereby
may be exercised by, any such separate agent or separate
agents or co-agent or co-agents or trustee shall be
exercised hereunder by such separate agent or separate
agents or co-agent or co-agents or trustee except jointly
with, or with the consent in writing of, anything herein
contained to the contrary notwithstanding;
(iv) no separate agent or co-agent or trustee constituted under
this Section 13.10 shall be personally liable by reason of
any act or omission of any other agent, separate agent,
co-agent or trustee hereunder; and
(v) Agent, at any time by an instrument in writing, executed
by it, may accept the resignation of or remove any such
separate agent or co-agent or trustee of Agent, and in
that case, by an instrument in writing executed by Agent
and Borrower (to the extent necessary or requested by
Agent) jointly may appoint a successor to such separate
agent or co-agent or trustee, as the case may be, anything
therein contained to the contrary notwithstanding. In the
event that Borrower shall not have joined in the execution
of any such instrument with a Person or entity within ten
(10) days after the receipt of a written request from
Agent to do so, Agent, acting alone, may appoint a
successor and may execute any instrument in connection
therewith, and Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Agent
its agent and attorney to act for it in such connection in
either of such contingencies.
In the event that Borrower shall not have joined in the execution of such
instruments or agreements with any Approved Delegate within thirty (30) Business
Days after the receipt of a written request from Agent to do so, Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints Agent as its agent and attorney to act for it under the
foregoing provisions of this Section 13.10 in such contingency, it being
understood that the power of attorney granted hereunder is coupled with an
interest.
105
(b) Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or
through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel,
and other specialists and advisors (including affiliates of such Agent) selected
by it, concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents,
attorneys-in-fact, counsel and other specialists and advisors selected by it
with reasonable care.
13.11 Agent's Responsibilities.
(a) Each subsequent holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof
irrevocably joins in the designation of TFC as agent for Lenders as provided
herein with the same force and effect as if it were an original Lender hereunder
and signatory hereto. TFC hereby accepts such designation and appointment as
agent. Agent, acting as such under the provisions of this Agreement, or under
any other instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto, shall not be liable
or responsible, directly or indirectly, for any action taken, or omitted to be
taken, by it in good faith, nor shall Agent be liable or responsible for the
consequences of any oversight or error of judgment on its part, but Agent shall
only be liable or responsible for any loss suffered by any of Lenders hereunder
provided such loss was caused by Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Agent shall not, by any action or inaction hereunder, be deemed to make any
representation or warranty regarding the legality, legal effect or sufficiency
of any act of Borrower in connection with, or under any of the provisions of,
this Agreement, or any instrument or document delivered pursuant thereto, or the
validity or enforceability of any instrument or document furnished to Agent
pursuant to this Agreement. Agent shall have no liability or responsibility in
connection with the collection or payment of any sums due to Lenders by
Borrower, the sole responsibility of Agent being to account to Lenders only for
monies actually received by it. Agent shall have no obligation to make any
application of any funds received by it until such funds are immediately
available at Agent's office. Any monies received by Agent need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law, and Agent shall not be
liable for interest on any funds received by it. Agent shall not be charged with
knowledge of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement unless and until Agent shall
have received written notice thereof at its office from Borrower or any Lender.
The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, Agent
shall not, by reason of this Agreement, be deemed a fiduciary in respect of
Lenders, and nothing in this Agreement shall impose upon Agent any obligations
in respect of this Agreement except as expressly herein set forth.
(b) Agent shall have the right to exercise all the rights granted to, and
exercisable by, it under this Agreement and any instrument or document delivered
pursuant to this Agreement, in such manner from time to time, as Agent in its
sole discretion, shall deem proper.
(c) Agent agrees to provide each Lender with notice (and copies of
documents, as appropriate) of the following:
(i) Agent's actual knowledge that any event or condition
exists that would permit a Lender to refuse to make an
Advance (including but not limited to those events or
conditions provided in Sections 4.1 and 5.1 hereof);
106
(ii) Agent's receipt of any notice or request from Borrower
regarding a proposed modification, waiver or consent,
provided however, Agent shall not be required to provide
notice unless Agent finds such proposed modification,
waiver or consent acceptable and intends to recommend
approval of such proposed modification, waiver or consent
to the Lenders;
(iii) Failure of any Lender to make a required Advance or other
accommodation within ten (10) business days of the time
period specified in Section 2.6 hereof;
(iv) Copies of any information/notices provided to TFC by
Borrower pursuant to Sections 7.1(h), 7.1(i), 7.1(m),
7.1(o), and 7.1(r) hereof; and
(v) Reasonable prior written notice of Agent's intent to
exercise its rights under Section 7.1(g). The scope of any
examination, audit or inspection conducted by Agent
pursuant to said Section 7.1(g) (including but not limited
to setting the parameters of any sample pool that is the
subject of such examination, audit or inspection) shall be
reasonably acceptable to each Lender.
(d) Agent shall be entitled, at its option, from time to time and at any
time, to enter into any amendment of, or waive compliance with the terms of the
Loan Agreement without obtaining prior approval from any Lender, provided that,
except as hereafter provided, Agent may not: (i) reduce or increase the
principal amount of the Loan; (ii) change the Borrowing Base (advance rate)
(provided, however, Agent may reduce the Borrowing Base for a limited time (not
more than sixty (60) days) to adjust an over-advance circumstance); (iii)
materially change the definition of Eligible Notes Receivable; (iv) decrease the
Interest Rate; (v) extend the maturity date of the Loan; and (vi) release any
material Collateral or any material third party obligor (except as expressly
authorized by this Agreement in the normal course of Borrower's business).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent may take any such actions referred to in
such preceding sentences and each Lender shall be bound thereby, with the
consent of such Lenders (including Agent as a Lender for this purpose) whose
total Pro Rata Payment Percentage is equal to or exceeds fifty-five percent
(55%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Lender does not consent
to any of the amendments or waivers requiring fifty-five percent (55%) consent
under the previous paragraph, then such Lender shall not be obligated to fund
any additional Advances hereunder but it shall continue to receive its Pro Rata
Payment Percentage of each repayment of principal and interest on the Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be repaid in full over a
period not to exceed the then existing final maturity date under the Loan.
Furthermore, in the event a Lender does not consent to any amendment or waivers
regarding: (i) reduction or increase of the principal amount of the Loan; (ii)
reduction in the release price as to any Collateral or any other change with
regard to release of Collateral; (iii) reduction of the Interest Rate; or (iv)
any subordination or release of any material Collateral, except as set forth in
this Agreement or the Loan Documents, then in any of such events any such
modification shall be applicable only to new money advanced
107
by Agent and such changes shall not be applicable in any way to the existing
balance due under the Loan as of the date of such change. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.11(d), Agent may, in its
sole and absolute discretion, require that the Lenders (including TFC)
unanimously consent to the approval of any such action(s) referred to in this
Section 13.11(d) before any such action(s) is taken. Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that in the event that a Lender does not consent to any of the amendments
or waivers requiring fifty-five percent (55%) consent under the previous
paragraph and such Lender is not obligated to fund any additional Advances
hereunder, the Maximum Available Revolving Amount and the Maximum Loan shall be
reduced by an amount equal to the amount of any unused portion of such Lender's
Commitment.
13.12 Power of Attorney. Each Lender does hereby irrevocably constitute
and appoint Agent as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full
power of substitution, for and in its name, place and stead, or otherwise, to
(a) demand and receive from time to time any and all property, rights, titles,
interests and liens hereby sold, assigned and transferred, or intended so to be,
and to give receipts for same, (b) from time to time to institute and prosecute
in Agent's own name any and all proceedings at law, in equity, or otherwise,
that Agent may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim,
right or title, of any kind, in and to the property, rights, titles, interests
and liens hereby sold, assigned or transferred, or intended so to be, and to
defend and compromise any and all actions, suits or proceedings in respect of
any of the said property, rights, titles, interests and liens, and (c) generally
to do all and any such acts and things in relation to the Loans, the Collateral
and this Agreement as Agent shall in good xxxxx xxxx advisable. Each Lender
hereby declares that the appointment made and the powers granted pursuant to
this Section 13.12 are coupled with an interest and are and shall be irrevocable
by it in any manner, or for any reason, unless and until the repayment in full
of the Obligation.
13.13 Right of Set-Off. In the event that any Lender fails to make a Loan
or Advance ratably in accordance with such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage as
required hereunder (such failure hereafter a "Funding Shortfall" and such Lender
hereafter a "Withholding Lender"), Agent may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, withhold any and all proceeds due to such Withholding Lender
hereunder (the "Withheld Proceeds") in an amount equal to the Funding Shortfall
and may apply the Withheld Proceeds to fund the requested Loan or Advance or to
reimburse TFC in accordance with Section 2 hereof. In the event that TFC, in
accordance with Section 2.3 and/or Section 2.6 hereof, has agreed to provide
funding in excess of its Pro Rata Percentage in order to fully fund the
requested Loan or Advance despite the Funding Shortfall, the Withheld Proceeds
shall be paid to TFC as reimbursement.
SECTION 14 -- SPECIAL CONDITIONS
14.1 Right of Additional Financing.
(a) Right of First Offer. If Borrower intends to seek additional timeshare
receivable financing or additional acquisition and/or construction financing for
the Marathon Key Resort, it shall first notify TFC in writing of such intent and
thereafter TFC shall have the option, but not the obligation, to provide such
additional financing ("Right of First Offer"). TFC shall have the exclusive
option, but not the obligation, to provide all or any part of such additional
financing on the same terms as outlined in the Commitment Letter (or on terms
that are more favorable to Borrower than the terms set forth in the Commitment
Letter) by notifying Borrower of its intent
108
to provide such financing within 45 days from the date that Borrower notifies
TFC that it intends to seek additional financing. If TFC fails to notify
Borrower of its intent to provide such additional financing or if TFC elects not
to provide such additional financing, then Borrower may secure such financing
from other sources, subject to Section 14.1(b) hereof.
(b) Right of First Refusal. If, at any time, Borrower obtains a commitment
to provide additional timeshare receivable financing and/or additional
acquisition or construction financing for the Marathon Key Resort from a source
other than TFC (the "Third Party Commitment"), Borrower shall provide TFC with
written notice and a copy of the Third Party Commitment. TFC shall have the
option, but shall in no way be obligated, to provide all or part of the
additional financing offered by the Third Party Commitment on the same terms as
outlined in the Third Party Commitment ("Right of First Refusal") by informing
Borrower in writing of its intent to provide the additional financing within 45
days of TFC's receipt of Borrower's written notice and a copy of the Third Party
Commitment. In the event that TFC elects not to provide the additional financing
as set forth above, Borrower may accept the Third Party Commitment provided that
the financing contemplated by the Third Party Commitment closes within six (6)
months of TFC's decision not to provide the additional financing.
During the term of the Loan, TFC shall be entitled to the Right of First
Offer and Right of First Refusal as described above each and every time that
Borrower requests or seeks additional financing for the Marathon Key Resort from
any source.
