SECTION 1.2.    Compliance Certificates and Opinions.

Upon any written application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, other than any request that (a) the Indenture Trustee authenticate the Notes specified in such request, (b) the Indenture Trustee invest moneys in any of the Trust Accounts pursuant to the written directions specified in such request or (c) the Indenture Trustee pay moneys due and payable to the Issuer hereunder to the Issuer’s assignee specified in such request, the Indenture Trustee shall require the Issuer to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and that the request otherwise is in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that, in the case of any such requested action as to which other evidence of satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

SECTION 1.3.    Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Issuer delivered to the Indenture Trustee may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon an Opinion of Counsel, unless such officer knows that such Opinion of Counsel with respect to the matters upon which his/her certificate or opinion is based is erroneous.  Any such Officer’s Certificate or opinion and any Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or

---

 

opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Issuer as to such factual matters unless such officer or counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters is erroneous.  Any Opinion of Counsel may be based on the written opinion of other counsel, in which event such Opinion of Counsel shall be accompanied by a copy of such other counsel’s opinion and shall include a statement to the effect that such other counsel believes that such counsel and the Indenture Trustee may reasonably rely upon the opinion of such other counsel.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Wherever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report.  The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Section 7.1(b) hereof.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of a Default, Event of Default or Servicer Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Indenture Trustee at the request or direction of the Issuer, then, notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer’s right to make such request or direction, the Indenture Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or direction if it does not have Knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such event.  For all purposes of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have Knowledge of any Default, Event of Default or Servicer Event of Default nor shall the Indenture Trustee have any duty to monitor or investigate to determine whether a default has occurred (other than an Event of Default of the kind described in Section 6.1(a) hereof) or Servicer Event of Default has occurred unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have Knowledge thereof or shall have been notified in writing thereof by the Issuer, the Servicer or any secured party.

SECTION 1.4.    Acts of Noteholders, etc.

(a)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer.  Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments.  Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be

---

 

sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.1 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.4.

(b)    The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof.  Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority.  The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the holder of any Note shall bind every future holder of the same Note and the holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

(d)    By accepting the Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture, each Noteholder irrevocably appoints the Indenture Trustee hereunder as the special attorney‑in‑fact for such Noteholder vested with full power on behalf of such Noteholder to effect and enforce the rights of such Noteholder for the benefit of such Noteholder; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 1.4(d) shall be deemed to confer upon the Indenture Trustee any duty or power to vote on behalf of the Noteholders with respect to any matter on which the Noteholders have a right to vote pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 1.5.    Notice to Noteholders; Waiver.

(a)    Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, or the mailing of any report to Noteholders, such notice or report shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, via first class mail, or sent by private courier or confirmable electronic means to each Noteholder affected by such event or to whom such report is required to be mailed, at its address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice or the mailing of such report.  In any case where a notice or report to Noteholders is mailed, neither the failure to mail such notice or report, nor any defect in any notice or report so mailed, to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice or report with respect to other Noteholders.  Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

(b)    In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to mail or send notice to Noteholders, in accordance with Section 1.5(a) hereof, of any event or any report to Noteholders when such notice or report is required to be delivered pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such notification or

---

 

delivery as shall be made with the approval of the Indenture Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 1.6.    Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

The Article and Section headings herein and in the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 1.7.    Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by each of the parties hereto shall bind its respective successors and permitted assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 1.8.    GOVERNING LAW.

THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  UNLESS MADE APPLICABLE IN A SUPPLEMENT HERETO, THIS INDENTURE IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE TRUST INDENTURE ACT OF 1939, AS AMENDED, AND SHALL NOT BE GOVERNED THEREBY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE THEREWITH.

SECTION 1.9.    Legal Holidays.

In any case where any Payment Date or the Stated Maturity or any other date on which principal of or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) such payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other date on which principal of or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid; provided, that no penalty interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Payment Date, Stated Maturity, or any other date on which principal of or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid, as the case may be, until such next succeeding Business Day.

SECTION 1.10.    Execution in Counterparts.

This Indenture may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Indenture by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof and deemed an original.

SECTION 1.11.    Inspection.

The Issuer agrees that, on ten Business Days’ prior notice (or, one Business Day’s prior notice after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Servicer

SECTION 1.12.    Survival of Representations and Warranties.

The representations, warranties and certifications of the Issuer made in this Indenture or in any certificate or other writing delivered by the Issuer pursuant hereto shall survive the authentication and delivery of the Notes hereunder.

ARTICLE II.

(a)    Form of Notes.  The Notes shall be designated as the “BXG Receivables Note Trust 2018-A, Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2018-A”.  The Notes, together with their certificates of authentication, shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or are permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon, as may consistently herewith, be determined by the officer executing such Notes, as evidenced by such officer’s execution of such Notes.

(b)    Denominations.  The Outstanding Note Balance of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $49,810,000, $33,141,000 and $34,769,000, respectively.  The Notes shall be issuable only as registered Notes, without interest coupons, in the denominations of at least $50,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000; provided,  however, that the foregoing shall not restrict or prevent the transfer in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof of any Note with a remaining Outstanding Note Balance of less than $50,000.

(c)    Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.  The Notes shall be manually executed by an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer.  Any

---

 

Note bearing the signature of an individual who was at the time of execution thereof an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individual ceases to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Note or did not hold such office at the date of such Note.  No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, executed by the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The Notes may from time to time be executed by the Issuer and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for authentication together with an Issuer Order to the Indenture Trustee directing the authentication and delivery of such Notes and thereupon the same shall be authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with such Issuer Order.

SECTION 2.2.    Global Notes.    

Each of the Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more book-entry global certificates (the “Global Notes” and each, a “Global Note”) to be deposited with the Indenture Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company, the initial Depository, by or on behalf of the Issuer.  The Notes sold to non-U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S will be represented by one or more temporary Global Notes (each, a “Temporary Regulation S Global Notes”).  Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period, interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note will be exchangeable for interests in permanent Global Notes of the same Class (together with a Temporary Regulation S Global Note, a “Regulation S Global Note”).  The Notes sold to U.S. Persons which are Qualified Institutional Buyers or, with respect to the Closing Date, Institutional Accredited Investors, will be represented by one or more temporary Global Notes (each, a “Rule 144A Global Note”).  All Global Notes shall be initially registered on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of The Depository Trust Company, and no Note Owner will receive a definitive note (a “Definitive Note”) representing such Note Owner’s interest in the related Class of Notes, except as provided in Section 2.3 hereof.  Unless and until Definitive Notes have been issued in respect of a Class of Notes pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof:

(a)    the provisions of this Section 2.2 shall be in full force and effect with respect to such Class of Notes;

(b)    the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee may deal with the Depository and the Depository Participants for all purposes with respect to such Notes (including the making of distributions on such Notes) as the authorized representatives of the respective Note Owners;

(c)    to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.2 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 2.2 shall control; and

(d)    the rights of the respective Note Owners of a Class of Notes shall be exercised only through the Depository and the Depository Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between the respective Note Owners and the Depository and/or

---

 

the Depository Participants.  Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and until Definitive Notes are issued in respect of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, the Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal of, and interest on, the Notes to the Depository Participants.

SECTION 2.3.    Definitive Notes.    

If (a) the Issuer advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository with respect to the Global Notes and the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor, (b) the Issuer, at its sole option, elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository with respect to any or all Classes of Notes or (c) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Note Owners (other than Bluegreen or an Affiliate thereof) evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the then Adjusted Note Balance of such Class of Global Notes, advise the Indenture Trustee and the Depository through the Depository Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system with respect to such Class of Global Notes, through the Depository is no longer in the best interest of such Note Owners, the Indenture Trustee shall use its best efforts to notify all affected Note Owners through the Depository of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to such Note Owners.  Neither the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.  Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Servicer shall recognize holders of Definitive Notes as Noteholders hereunder.  Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Notes. 

SECTION 2.4.    Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

(a)    The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Note Register”) for the registration, transfer and exchange of Notes.  The Indenture Trustee is hereby appointed “Note Registrar” for purposes of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided.  The names and addresses of all Noteholders and the names and addresses of the transferees of any Notes shall be registered in the Note Register; provided,  however, in no event shall the Note Registrar be required to maintain in the Note Register the names of the individual participants holding Notes through the Depository.  The Person in whose name any Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and Noteholder thereof for all purposes of this Indenture and the Note Registrar, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and any agent of any of them shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.  A Definitive Note is transferable or exchangeable only upon the surrender of such Note to the Note Registrar at the Corporate Trust Office together with an assignment and transfer (executed by the Noteholder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the applicable requirements of this Section 2.4. Upon request of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, the Note Registrar shall provide the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable, with the names and addresses of the Noteholders.  The Notes are intended to be obligations in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f), Section 871(h)(2) and Section 881(c)(2) of the Code.

---

 

(b)    Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Definitive Note, subject to the applicable requirements of this Section 2.4, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall duly authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more Notes in denominations of a like aggregate denomination as the Definitive Note being surrendered.  Each Note surrendered for registration of transfer shall be canceled and consequently destroyed by the Note Registrar.  Each new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be registered in the name of any Person and in the form of Definitive Notes in one of the appropriate forms as the transferring Noteholder may request, subject to the applicable provisions of this Section 2.4.  All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(c)    The issuance of the Notes will not be registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state.  No resale or transfer of any Note or any interest therein may be made unless such resale or transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and an effective registration or a qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification because such transfer satisfies one of the following: (i) such resale or transfer is in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act to a person who the transferor reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that is purchasing for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer and to whom notice is given that such resale or transfer is being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the Securities Act (or, on the Closing Date, Institutional Accredited Investors) as certified by such transferee (other than the Initial Purchasers and their respective initial transferees) in a letter in the form of Exhibit B  hereto; (ii) such resale or transfer is in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act as certified by such transferee (other than the Initial Purchasers and their respective initial transferees) in a letter in the form of Exhibit B hereto; or (iii) after the appropriate holding period, such resale or transfer is pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, in each case, in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction.  Each transferee and each subsequent transferee will be required to notify any subsequent purchaser of such Notes from it of the resale restrictions described herein.  None of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note without registration.

(d)    In addition to the applicable provisions of this Section 2.4 and the rules of the Depository, the exchange, transfer and registration of transfer of Global Notes or interests therein shall only be made in accordance with this Section 2.4(d).

(i)    Rule 144A Global Note to Temporary Regulation S Global Note During the Restricted Period.    If, during the Restricted Period, a Note Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note, such Note Owner may, in addition to complying with all applicable rules and procedures of the Depository and Clearstream or Euroclear applicable to transfers by their respective participants (the “Applicable Procedures”), transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent

---

 

beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.4(d)(i).

---

 

promptly (and, in any event, no later than five Business Days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of termination from the Indenture Trustee) provide the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer or their respective designees (with reasonable costs being borne by the Servicer) with all documents and records (including, without limitation, those in electronic form) reasonably requested by it to enable the Indenture Trustee to assume the Servicer’s functions hereunder and for the Backup Servicer to assume the functions required by the Backup Servicing Agreement, and the Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the assumption by a successor of the Servicer’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the Indenture Trustee or its designee for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time or thereafter received by it with respect to the Timeshare Loans (provided,  however, that the Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Indenture on or prior to the date of such termination).  If the Indenture Trustee is unable or unwilling to act as successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee may appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Servicer.  The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to renegotiate the Servicing Fee; provided,  however, no change to the Servicing Fee may be made unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received the written consent of Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee or Bluegreen be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to assume the obligations of Servicer under this Indenture.

The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Servicer, (or by the Trust Estate to the extent set forth in Section 3.4(a)(i) or Section 6.6(a)(i) hereof) if the Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder for all Servicer Termination Costs.

---

 

further Continued Errors.  In the event that the successor Servicer becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, the successor Servicer shall, with the prior consent of the Indenture Trustee, use its best efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data as is commercially reasonable to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors and to recover its costs thereby.

SECTION 5.5.    Accountings; Statements and Reports.

(a)    Monthly Servicer Report.  Not later than two Business Days prior to the Payment Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, each Rating Agency and the Initial Purchasers, a report (the “Monthly Servicer Report”) substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto, detailing certain activity relating to the Timeshare Loans.  The Monthly Servicer Report shall be completed with the information specified therein for the related Due Period and shall contain such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Initial Purchasers in writing at least five Business Days prior to such Determination Date.  Each such Monthly Servicer Report shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer in the form of Exhibit I hereto, certifying the accuracy of the computations reflected in such Monthly Servicer Report.

---

 

(A) stating that based on such review, no Servicer Event of Default is known to have occurred and is continuing, or (B) if such a Servicer Event of Default is known to have occurred and is continuing, specifying such Servicer Event of Default and the nature and status thereof.

(c)    Annual Accountants’ Reports.  On or before each June 30 of each year commencing in 2020, the Servicer shall, at its own expense, cause a firm of independent public accountants to furnish a certificate or statement (and the Servicer shall provide a copy of such certificate or statement to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, each Rating Agency and the Initial Purchasers), to the effect that (1) such firm has examined and audited the Servicer’s servicing controls and procedures for the previous calendar year and that such independent public accountants have examined certain documents and records (including computer records) and servicing procedures of the Servicer relating to the Timeshare Loans, (2) they have examined the most recent Monthly Servicer Report prepared by the Servicer and three other Monthly Servicer Reports chosen at random by such firm and compared such Monthly Servicer Reports with the information contained in such documents and records, (3) their examination included such tests and procedures as they considered necessary in the circumstances, (4) their examinations and comparisons described under clauses (1) and (2) above disclosed no exceptions which, in their opinion, were material, relating to such Timeshare Loans or such Monthly Servicer Reports, or, if any such exceptions were disclosed thereby, setting forth such exceptions which, in their opinion, were material and (5) on the basis of such examinations and comparisons, such firm is of the opinion that the Servicer has, during the relevant period, serviced the Timeshare Loans in compliance with this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents in all material respects and that such documents and records have been maintained in accordance with this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents in all material respects, except in each case for (A) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial and (B) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such written report. The report will also indicate that such firm is independent of the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  In the event such independent public accountants require the Indenture Trustee to agree to the procedures to be performed by such firm in any of the reports required to be prepared pursuant to this Section 5.5(c), the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee has not made any independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.

To the extent the Indenture Trustee is required to agree to the procedures in order to receive the accountants’ report, such agreement may include, among other things, (1) an acknowledgement that the Servicer has agreed that the procedures to be performed by the firm are sufficient for the purposes of the Indenture and that such procedures are sufficient for the Indenture Trustee’s purposes which are specifically limited to receipt of the accountants’ report, (2) releases by the Indenture Trustee (on behalf of itself and the Noteholders) of claims against the firm and acknowledgement of other limitations of liability in favor of the firm, and (3) restrictions or prohibitions on the disclosure of the accountants’ report or other information or documents provided to it by such firm to any party, including the Noteholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be required to execute any agreement in respect of the accountants’ report that the Indenture Trustee determines adversely affects it in its individual capacity.

SECTION 6.7.    Limitation on Suits.

No Noteholder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a)    there is a continuing Event of Default and such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

---

 

(b)    such Noteholder or Noteholders have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity (which may be in the form of written assurances) against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(d)    no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 30-day period by the Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes Outstanding;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the ratable benefit of all such Noteholders.  It is further understood and intended that so long as any portion of the Notes remains Outstanding, the Servicer shall not have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture (other than for the enforcement of Section 3.4 hereof) or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee (including without limitation a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code), or for any other remedy hereunder.  Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall be construed as limiting the rights of otherwise qualified Noteholders to petition a court for the removal of an Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 7.8 hereof.

SECTION 6.8.    Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, other than the provisions hereof limiting the right to recover amounts due on the Notes to recoveries from the property comprising the Trust Estate, each Noteholder shall have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, and interest on, such Note as such payments of principal and interest become due, including on the Stated Maturity, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the obligation to pay principal and interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be without recourse to the Originators, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate (other than the Issuer), officer employee or director of any of them, and the obligation of the Issuer to pay principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be subject to the allocation and payment provisions of this Indenture and limited to amounts available from the Trust Estate.  Notwithstanding any other terms of this Indenture, the Notes, any Transaction Documents or otherwise, the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate, and following realization of the Trust Estate and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, none of the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee or any of the other parties to the Transaction Documents shall be entitled to take any further steps to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive.  It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Trust Estate for sums

---

 

due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Trust Estate, (ii) save as specifically provided therein, constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture.  It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not limit the right of any Person, to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against the Issuer.

SECTION 6.9.    Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and, in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 6.10.    Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Notes in Section 2.5(f) hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.11.    Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

SECTION 6.12.    Control by Noteholders.

Except as may otherwise be provided in this Indenture, until such time as the conditions specified in Sections 11.1(a)(i) and (ii) hereof have been satisfied in full, the Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee, with respect to the Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing:

---

 

(i)    no such direction shall be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

(ii)    the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to follow any such direction which the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes might result in any personal liability on the part of the Indenture Trustee for which the Indenture Trustee is not adequately indemnified; and

(iii)    the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee which is not inconsistent with any such direction; provided that the Indenture Trustee shall give notice of any such action to each Noteholder.

SECTION 6.13.    Waiver of Events of Default.

(a)    Unless a Sequential Pay Event shall have occurred, the Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes may, by one or more instruments in writing, waive any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences, except a continuing Event of Default:

(i)    in respect of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note (which may only be waived by such Noteholder), or

(ii)    in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article IX hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Noteholder of each Outstanding Note affected (which only may be waived by the Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes affected).

(b)    A copy of each waiver pursuant to Section 6.13(a) hereof shall be furnished by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder.  Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 6.14.    Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree (and each Noteholder by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed) that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 6.14 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (ii) to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes Outstanding, or (iii) to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the maturities for such payments, including the Stated Maturity, as applicable.

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

SECTION 6.16.    Sale of Trust Estate.

(a)    The power to effect the sale of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes shall have been paid or losses allocated thereto and borne thereby.  The Indenture Trustee may from time to time, upon directions in accordance with Section 6.12 hereof, postpone any public sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale.

(ii)    the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance prepared by the Servicer transferring the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the Trust Estate without recourse, representation or warranty in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof;

(a)    Any successor Indenture Trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.8 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to each of the Servicer, the Issuer, each Rating Agency, the Noteholders and to its predecessor Indenture Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Indenture Trustee shall become effective and such successor Indenture Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor Indenture Trustee hereunder with like effect as if originally named a Indenture Trustee.  The predecessor Indenture Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the successor Indenture Trustee or its custodian any Transaction Documents and statements held by it or its custodian hereunder; and the Servicer and the Issuer and the predecessor Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for the full and certain vesting and confirmation in the successor Indenture Trustee of all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

(b)    In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes, the Issuer, the retiring Indenture Trustee and each successor Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Indenture Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Indenture Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor Indenture Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Notes, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes as to which the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Indenture Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the Trust Estate hereunder by more than one Indenture Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Indenture Trustees co-trustees of the same allocated trust and that each such Indenture Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Indenture Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Indenture Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor Indenture Trustee relates; but, on request of the Issuer or any successor Indenture Trustee, such retiring Indenture Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Indenture Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Indenture Trustee hereunder with respect to the Notes of that or those to which the appointment of such successor Indenture Trustee relates.

Upon request of any such successor Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor indenture trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the preceding paragraph.

(d)    Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Indenture Trustee as provided in this Section 7.9, the Servicer shall mail notice of the succession of such Indenture Trustee hereunder to each Noteholder at its address as shown in the Note Register.  If the Servicer fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee, the successor Indenture Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Issuer and the Servicer.

SECTION 7.10.    Merger or Consolidation of Indenture Trustee.

Any Person into which the Indenture Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Indenture Trustee, shall be the successor of the Indenture Trustee hereunder, provided such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.7 hereof, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

SECTION 7.11.    Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.

(a)    At any time or times for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located or in which any action of the Indenture Trustee may be required to be performed or taken, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or the Noteholders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Adjusted Note Balance of each Class of Notes, by an instrument in writing signed by it or them, may appoint, at the reasonable expense of the Issuer and the Servicer, one or more Persons to act as separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee, acting jointly with the Indenture Trustee, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, to the full extent that local law makes it necessary for such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee acting jointly with the Indenture Trustee to act.  Notwithstanding the appointment of any separate or co-trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall remain obligated and liable for the obligations of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. 

(b)    The Indenture Trustee and, at the request of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be required by the legal requirements of any jurisdiction or by any such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee for the purpose of more fully confirming such title, rights, or duties to such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee.  Upon the acceptance in writing of such appointment by any such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee, it, he, she or they shall be vested with such title to the Trust Estate or any part thereof, and with such rights, powers, duties and obligations as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment, and such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustees jointly with the Indenture Trustee subject to all the terms of this Indenture, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee

---

 

shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee, as the case may be.  Any separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee may, at any time by an instrument in writing, constitute the Indenture Trustee its attorney-in-fact and agent with full power and authority to do all acts and things and to exercise all discretion on its behalf and in its name.  In any case, if any such separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, the title to the Trust Estate and all assets, property, rights, power duties and obligations and duties of such separate trustee or co-trustee shall, so far as permitted by law, vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, without the appointment of a successor to such separate trustee or co-trustee unless and until a successor is appointed.

(c)    All provisions of this Indenture which are for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee shall extend to and apply to each separate trustee or co-trustee appointed pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.11.

(d)    Every additional trustee and separate trustee hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act and the Indenture Trustee shall act, subject to the following provisions and conditions:  (i) all powers, duties and obligations and rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee in respect of the receipt, custody, investment and payment of monies shall be exercised solely by the Indenture Trustee; (ii) all other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such additional trustee or trustees and separate trustee or trustees jointly except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Timeshare Properties in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such additional trustee or trustees or separate trustee or trustees; (iii) no power hereby given to, or exercisable by, any such additional trustee or separate trustee shall be exercised hereunder by such trustee except jointly with, or with the consent of, the Indenture Trustee; and (iv) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.

If at any time, the Indenture Trustee shall deem it no longer necessary or prudent in order to conform to such law, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to remove any additional trustee or separate trustee.

(e)    Any request, approval or consent in writing by the Indenture Trustee to any additional trustee or separate trustee shall be sufficient warrant to such additional trustee or separate trustee, as the case may be, to take such action as may be so requested, approved or consented to.

(f)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.11, the powers of any additional trustee or separate trustee shall not exceed those of the Indenture Trustee hereunder.

as expressly provided in this Indenture or the Custodial Agreement or such other instrument or agreement.

(c)    The Issuer may contract with or otherwise obtain the assistance of other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer, provided,  however, that no appointment of such Person shall relieve the Issuer of its duties and obligations hereunder.  Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian pursuant to this Indenture to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.

The Issuer, upon the Issuer’s failure to do so, hereby irrevocably designates the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, severally, its agents and attorneys-in-fact to execute any financing statement or continuation statement or Assignment of Mortgage required pursuant to this Section 8.5; provided,  however, that such designation shall not be deemed to create a duty of the Indenture Trustee to monitor the compliance of the Issuer with the foregoing covenants, and provided,  further, that the duty of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to execute any instrument required pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall arise only if a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable, has Knowledge of any failure of the Issuer to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.5.

(e)    Pending Litigation or Other Proceedings.  There is no pending or, to the best of the Backup Servicer’s Knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against or affecting the Backup Servicer which, if decided adversely, would materially and adversely affect (i) the condition (financial or otherwise), business or operations of the Backup Servicer, (ii) the ability of the Backup Servicer to perform its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of this Indenture or any other documents or transactions contemplated under this Indenture, (iii) any property or title of any Obligor to any property or (iv) the Indenture Trustee’s ability to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Liens of the Timeshare Loans.

(f)    Taxes.  The Backup Servicer has timely filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) which are required to be filed and has paid all taxes that have become due and payable, other than those which are being contested in good faith or where the failure to file or pay would not have a material adverse effect on the Backup Servicer’s activities or its ability to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents.
