BACKGROUND

 

A.The Bluegreen Vacation Club (the "Vacation Club") is a multi-site timeshare plan established by Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. pursuant to the Vacation Club Trust Agreement and entitles Purchasers who become Owner Beneficiaries under the Vacation Club Trust Agreement to use any component site within the Vacation Club, subject to the Vacation Club Trust Agreement and the rules and regulations governing such occupancy, including, without limitation, its reservation procedures. 

 

B.Borrower is the developer of the Paradise Point Project (as hereinafter defined).  In addition to other component site resorts, the Paradise Point Timeshare Project is a component site resort within the Bluegreen Vacation Club. 

 

C.When a Purchaser purchases Timeshare Inventory in the Paradise Point Project, the purchased Timeshare Inventory is conveyed by the Borrower to the Vacation Club Trustee at the Purchaser's direction as set forth in the Purchase Contract to be held under the terms of the Vacation Club Trust Agreement.  The Purchaser thereby is designated an Owner Beneficiary and receives Owner Beneficiary Rights and appurtenant Vacation Points and is entitled to all the benefits accruing to Owner Beneficiaries under the Vacation Club Trust Agreement. 

 

D.Effective on December 13, 2013, Borrower and Lender entered into that certain Loan Agreement (Inventory Loan) pursuant to which Lender agreed to make Advances of the Loan against completed Timeshare Inventory within Phase I/II of the Timeshare Project (the "Prior Loan Agreement").  Borrower has requested and Lender has agreed, subject to the terms and provisions contained herein, to make Advances of the Loan against Timeshare Inventory located within Phase III of the Timeshare Project and which is not yet completed and is still under construction.

 

E.Subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions, Lender and Borrower desire to amend and restate the Prior Loan Agreement in order to, inter alia, (i) provide for the making of Advances against Phase III Timeshare Intervals, (ii) increase the Maximum Loan Amount to $15,000,000, and (iii) extend the Borrowing Term and the Maturity Date.

 

F.This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the Prior Loan Agreement, and upon full execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by all parties thereto, this Agreement shall become effective and the Prior Loan Agreement shall be of no further force or effect.

2.1Loan Commitment.    

 

(a)Determination of Advance Amounts as to Additional Timeshare Inventory.  The provisions of this Section 2.1(a) pertain solely to Advances against Additional Timeshare Inventory and all references in this section to the defined term "Encumbered Timeshare Product" shall mean, for purposes of this section, Additional Timeshare Inventory that is from time to time subject to the lien of the mortgage.  Lender hereby agrees, if Borrower has Performed all of the Obligations then due (and no Event of Default or Incipient Default exists), to make an Advance to Borrower against Additional Timeshare Inventory in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the purposes specified in Section 2.3.  The maximum amount of the Advance shall be equal to 13.5% of the Retail Value of the Encumbered Timeshare Product.  At no time shall the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceed the least of (i) the Maximum Loan Amount, (ii) 13.5% of the Retail Value of the Encumbered Timeshare Product, (iii) 80% of the prorated costs of goods sold ("Inventory Costs") of the Encumbered Timeshare Product from buildings in existence at the time of the initial Advance and at the time of the first Advance on Encumbered Timeshare Product from any buildings where construction

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to avoid the complications arising from a recalculation of the Release Payments prior to the making of the End of Construction Advance, in no event shall Advances be permitted against Additional Timeshare Inventory during the period commencing on the making of the first Pre-Advance and ending on the making of the End of Construction Advance.

 

(b)Determination of Advance Amounts as to Phase III Timeshare Intervals.  The provisions of this Section 2.1(b) pertain solely to the making of Advances against Phase III Timeshare Intervals and all references in this section to the term "Encumbered Timeshare Product" shall, for purposes of this section, mean Phase III Timeshare Intervals that are from time to time subject to the lien of the Mortgage.  Lender hereby agrees, if Borrower has Performed all of the Obligations then due (no Event of Default or Incipient Default exists), to make Advances to Borrower against Phase III Timeshare Intervals in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the purposes specified in Section 2.3.  A total of 4 Advances shall be made against Phase III Timeshare Intervals, with the first 3 Advances being characterized as Pre-Advances and the last Advance being characterized as the End of Construction Advance.  Following the making of the first Pre-Advance, subsequent Pre-Advances and the End of Construction Advance shall be made no more frequently than 90 days following the making of the immediately previous such Advance and Borrower shall satisfy all conditions precedent to the making of the End of Construction Advance within 20 months following the making of the first Pre-Advance or the End of Construction Advance shall not occur.  In addition to satisfying all other conditions to the making of an Advance, as contained herein, the making of the End of Construction Advance is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.1(e)(ii),  4.1(l), and 4.1(m) hereof as to the Encumbered Timeshare Product. 

 

(c)Revolving Nature of Loan.  The Loan is a revolving line of credit; however, all Advances shall be viewed as a single loan.  Borrower shall not be entitled to obtain Advances after the expiration of the Borrowing Term unless Lender, in its discretion, agrees in writing with Borrower to make Advances thereafter on terms and conditions satisfactory to Lender.  No more than one Advance will be made in any calendar month.

 

(d)Maximum Aggregate Loan Amount.  In no event shall (i) the combined unpaid principal balance of the Loan and the Receivables Loan exceed $45,000,000 or (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceed $15,000,000.  If at any time, either of the foregoing limitations are exceeded, then within 5 Business Days thereafter, Borrower will make a principal payment to Lender in an amount equal to such overage.

 

2.2Continuation of Obligations Throughout Term.  This Agreement and Borrower's liability for Performance of the Obligations shall continue until the end of the Term.

2.4Repayment of Loan.  The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and shall be repaid in immediately available funds according to the terms of the Note and this Agreement.

 

2.5Interest.  Except as otherwise provided in the Note or this Agreement, interest ("Basic Interest") shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan from time to time outstanding at the Basic Interest Rate.  Basic Interest is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days during the calendar month that the principal balance is outstanding.  Interest shall accrue on funds as of the date Lender wires such funds to Borrower or to any escrow agent handling disbursement of the Advance.  Payments of principal and any other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than Basic Interest) shall accrue interest at the Default Rate after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Default Rate is reasonable in

---

 

light of the increased risk of collection after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default.

 

2.6Payments. 

 

(a)Borrower agrees punctually to pay or cause to be paid to Lender all principal and interest due under this Agreement and the Note, respectively, with respect to the Loan.  All payments of principal, interest and fees on the Loan shall be made to Lender by federal funds wire transfer as instructed by Lender in immediately available funds.  If any payment of principal, interest or fees to be made by Borrower becomes due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment will be due on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time will be included in computing any interest with respect to such payment.

 

(b)If any installment of interest and/or the payment of principal is not received by Lender within 10 days after the due date thereof, then in addition to the remedies conferred upon Lender pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof and the other Loan Documents, Lender may elect to assess a late charge of 5% of the amount of the installment due and unpaid, which late charge will be added to the delinquent amount to compensate Lender for the expense of handling the delinquency; provided, however, no late charge shall be imposed upon a payment to repay the Loan upon the Maturity Date or upon acceleration of the Loan.  Borrower and Lender agree that such late charge represents a good faith and fair and reasonable estimate of the probable cost to Lender of such delinquency.  Borrower acknowledges that during the time that any such amount is in default, Lender will incur losses which are impracticable, costly and inconvenient to ascertain and that such late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date of the execution of this Agreement and represents a reasonable estimate of the losses Lender will incur by reason of late payment.  Borrower further agrees that proof of actual losses would be costly, inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix.  Acceptance of such late charge will not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and will not prevent Lender from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available hereunder.  Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $25.00 if Borrower makes a payment on the Loan and the check or preauthorized charge with which Borrower pays is later dishonored. 

 

2.7Minimum Required Payments.  Borrower shall make the following payments on the Loan:

 

(a)Interest Payments.  On the Monthly Payment Date beginning July, 2015, a monthly payment of interest only shall be due and payable, at the Basic Interest Rate, on the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loan in an amount equal to interest which accrued during the immediately preceding calendar month.

 

(b)Release Payments.  Encumbered Timeshare Product shall continue to be released from the lien of the Mortgage upon the payment of the required Release Price under conditions set forth below, until the unpaid principal balance of the Loan advanced prior to the Effective Date against Encumbered Timeshare Product within Phase I/II has been paid in full.  Thereafter, Lender hereby agrees to release a particular Closing Timeshare contained within Phase I/II upon the sale thereof to a Purchaser, without the payment of a Release Payment. 

---

 

Other than the release of Encumbered Timeshare Product within Phase I/II as provided in the immediately previous sentence and in order to avoid complications arising from a recalculation of the Release Payment prior to the making of the End of Construction Advance, in no event shall any Encumbered Timeshare Product be released from the lien of the Mortgage until the making of the End of Construction Advance.  Thereafter, Encumbered Timeshare Product shall be released pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 2.7(c). 

 

(c)Release Process.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(b) hereof, in connection with each closing of a sale of an item of Encumbered Timeshare Product at the Timeshare Project ("Closing Timeshare"), Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount calculated in respect of each Closing Timeshare, until the earlier of the Maturity Date or until the Loan is paid in full (as to each Closing Timeshare, such amount is called the "Release Payment" and as to all Closing Timeshares, the aggregate of such amounts is called the "Release Payments").

 

Borrower shall bear the responsibility of recording any and all documents executed and delivered pursuant to this section.  Borrower shall also pay all escrow costs and recording and transfer costs in respect to such documents.

(d)Minimal Principal Reductions.  Borrower shall make the following minimum cumulative quarterly amortization payments (the "Minimum Quarterly Payments") during the following quarterly time periods commencing at the end of the Borrowing Term (with Release Payments paid by Borrower on or prior to such Quarterly Payment Date to be taken into account in determining whether or not Borrower has satisfied the required Minimum Quarterly Payments).  The Minimum Quarterly Payments per quarterly time period shall equal the following percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan at the end of the Borrowing Term:

 

 

In the event at the end of any quarterly time period, the required Minimum Quarterly Payment has not occurred, Borrower shall pay any shortfall to Lender within 20 days thereafter, other than the payment due on the Maturity Date which shall be due on that date, with no 20-day extension.  All such payments of principal will be applied by Lender as provided in Section 2.10.

 

(e)Release Price Maximum.  If at any time the Release Percentage exceeds 18% of the Retail Value, then within 20 days thereafter, Borrower will at its sole option either (i) make to Lender a principal payment or (ii) pledge to Lender Additional Timeshare Inventory (under the conditions set forth in Section 2.11 hereof) (or any combination of the alternatives contained in clauses (i) or (ii) above) so that after such payment or pledge, the Release Percentage is equal to or less than 18% of the Retail Value.  

 

(f)Final Payment.  The entire outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with all other monetary Obligations due in respect of the Loan, shall be paid in full by not later than the earliest of: (i) the Maturity Date or (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default (and Lender's election to accelerate the Loan).

2.8Prepayment.  Borrower may prepay the Loan, in full or in part, at any time, without any prepayment premium or penalty.

 

2.9Loan Fee and Amendment Fee.   

 

 

2.10Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Payments.  Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, the amount of all payments or amounts received by Lender with respect to the Loan shall be applied in the following order of priority:  (a) to any past due payments of interest on the Loan and to accrued interest on the Loan through the date of such payment, including any interest at the Default Rate; (b) to any late fees, examination fees and expenses, collection fees and expenses and any other fees and expenses due to Lender under the Loan Documents in connection with the Loan; and (c) to the unpaid principal balance of the Loan.  In calculating interest and applying payments as set forth above:  (i) interest on the Loan shall be calculated and collected through the date payment is actually received by Lender; (ii) interest on the outstanding balance of the Loan shall be charged during any grace period permitted under the Loan Documents; (iii) at the end of each month, at the reasonable discretion of Lender, all past due interest and other past due charges provided for under the Loan Documents with respect to the Loan shall be added to the principal balance of the Loan; and (iv) to the extent that Borrower makes a payment or Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for Borrower's benefit that is subsequently invalidated, set aside or required to be repaid to any other Person, then, to such extent, the Obligations in connection with the Loan shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender and Lender may adjust the Loan balance as Lender, in its discretion, deems appropriate as indicated under the circumstances.  The provisions of this Section 2.10 are also subject to the parties' rights and obligations under the Loan Documents as to the application of proceeds of the Collateral following an Event of Default.

2.11Additional Timeshare Inventory.  On a monthly basis Borrower shall have the option of pledging additional Timeshare Inventory from the Timeshare Project (the "Additional Timeshare Inventory") to Lender provided that (i) the Mortgage is amended to include such Additional Timeshare Inventory within the scope of the lien created thereunder, (ii) the Title Policy is endorsed to include as a part of Schedule A thereof such Additional Timeshare Inventory, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower and (iii) the conditions contained in Sections 4.1(l) and (m) are satisfied with respect to such Timeshare Inventory.  Upon satisfaction of all of the foregoing conditions, Borrower shall have the right to obtain Advances against such newly pledged Timeshare Inventory, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Subject to the approval of Lender's credit committee and such other conditions Lender shall require, additional timeshare projects owned by Borrower may be included in this Agreement and Timeshare Inventory from the additional timeshare projects may be eligible for an Advance hereunder.

 

2.12Non-Use Fee.  If during any calendar month between the period beginning one year after the Effective Date (as defined in the Receivables Loan Agreement) and ending on the last day of the calendar month in which the Borrowing Term (as defined in the Receivables Loan Agreement) expires, the highest combined unpaid principal balance of the Loan and the Receivables Loan during such calendar month is at any time less than $28,000,000, then within five Business Days following the end of any such calendar month, Borrower shall pay to Lender a non-use fee (the "Non-Use Fee") of one-half percent (.5%) per annum on the difference between $28,000,000 and the largest combined unpaid principal balance during such calendar month then ended under the Loan and the Receivables Loan.  However, in the event the combined unpaid principal balance of this Loan and the Receivables Loan is equal to or greater than $28,000,000 during such calendar month, then no Non‑Use Fee shall be due and payable.  The Non-Use Fee under this Agreement is the same Non-Use Fee payable under the Receivables Loan and only one Non-Use Fee is payable.

(a)declare the Note and all other sums owing by Borrower to Lender in connection with the Loan, immediately due and payable without further notice, presentment, demand or protest, which are hereby waived by Borrower; except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 7.1(l), such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional;

Documents.  Lender may also withhold any one or more Advances after the occurrence of an Incipient Default, unless Borrower cures or corrects such event or condition to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default;

 

 

 

 

For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted by Section 7.2(b), Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender true and lawful attorney-in-fact to enter into such contracts, perform such acts and incur such liabilities as are referred to in said subsection in the name and on behalf of Borrower.  This power of attorney is coupled with an interest.

 

All remedies of Lender provided for herein and in any other Loan Documents are cumulative and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or in equity.  Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.  The exercise of any right or remedy by Lender hereunder shall not in any way constitute a cure or waiver of default hereunder or under any other Loan Document or invalidate any act done pursuant to any notice of default, or prejudice Lender in the exercise of any of its rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document.  If Lender exercises any of the rights or remedies provided in this Article 7, that exercise shall not make Lender, or cause Lender to be deemed to be, a partner or joint venturer of Borrower.  No disbursement of loan funds by Lender shall cure any default of Borrower, unless Lender agrees otherwise in writing in each instance.  Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

7.4Reserved.

 

7.5Application of Proceeds.  The proceeds of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral made in connection with the exercise of Lender's rights and remedies shall be applied in the following order of priorities; first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, including compensation to Lender’s agents, reasonable attorneys' fees, and all other reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by Lender, its agents and attorneys, in connection with such sale, and any other unreimbursed expenses for which Lender may be

---

 

reimbursed pursuant to the Loan Documents; second, to the payment of the Obligations in such order and manner as Lender may determine; and last, to the payment to Borrower, its successors or assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.

 

7.6Lender's Right to Perform.  Lender may, at its option, and without any obligation to do so, pay, perform and discharge any and all obligations agreed to be paid or Performed in the Loan Documents by Borrower or any surety for the Performance of the Obligations if (a) such Person fails to do so and (b) (i) an Event of Default exists and at least 5 Business Days' notice has been given to such Person of Lender's intention to take such action, (ii) the action taken by Lender involves obtaining insurance which such Person has failed to maintain in accordance with the Loan Documents or to deliver evidence thereof, or (iii) in the opinion of Lender, such action must be taken because an emergency exists or to preserve any of the Collateral or its value.  For such purposes Lender may use the proceeds of the Collateral.  All amounts expended by Lender in so doing or in exercising its remedies under the Loan Documents following an Event of Default shall become part of the Obligations, shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the dates of such expenditures until paid.

 

7.7Waiver of Marshalling.  Borrower, for itself and for all who may claim through or under it, hereby expressly waives and releases all right to have the Collateral, or any part of the Collateral, marshalled on any foreclosure, sale or other enforcement of Lender's rights and remedies.

 

7.8Waiver in Legal Actions.  In connection with any proceedings related to the enforcement of remedies under this Agreement or the documents collateral hereto or the transactions contemplated hereunder, Borrower irrevocably waives:

(b)Any requirement of bonds, and any surety or security relating thereto, required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as incident to such possession;

 

(c)Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, demand, presentment and protest, notice of demand, presentment or protest of the Note, the Guaranty or any other Loan Document;

 

(d)The benefit of any valuation, appraisal and exemption law; and

 

(e)Any right to subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity.

8.2Indemnification.  Borrower will INDEMNIFY, PROTECT, HOLD HARMLESS, and defend Lender, its successors, assigns and shareholders (including corporate shareholders), and the directors, officers, employees, servants and agents of any of the foregoing, for, from and against:  (a) any and all liability, damage, penalties, or fines, loss, costs or expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees, whether incurred in a third party action or in an action to enforce this Agreement), claims, demands, suits, proceedings (whether civil or criminal), orders, judgments, penalties, fines and other sanctions whatsoever asserted against it as a result of actions, claims, counterclaims, fines, penalties or otherwise and arising from or brought in connection with the Timeshare Project, the Collateral, Lender's status by virtue of the Loan Documents, sales of Timeshare Inventory or the financing of such sales, in either case, in violation of or in noncompliance with any Legal Requirements, the breach by Borrower of any terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, the sale or financing of Timeshare Inventory, the creation of liens and security interests, the terms of the Loan Documents or the transactions related thereto, any assertion that Lender is a partner or joint venturer of Borrower or any other Person by virtue of the making of the Loan, or any act or omission of Borrower or an Agent, or their respective employees or agents, whether actual or alleged ("Losses"), except to the extent that any of the foregoing Losses described in this clause (a) are caused by Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct or first accrue after foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (b) any and all brokers' commissions or finders' fees or other costs of similar type by any party in connection with the Loan, other than those owed to ▇▇▇▇ Financial arising from the acts of Lender; and (c) any mechanics liens filed against Phase III.  On written request by a Person covered by the above agreement of indemnity, Borrower will undertake, at its own cost and

---

 

expense, on behalf of such indemnitee, using counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnitee, the defense of any legal action or proceeding to which such Person shall be a party.  At Lender's option, Lender may at Borrower's expense prosecute or defend any action within the scope of the indemnification contained in this Section 8.2 to the extent Borrower does not promptly prosecute or defend such action with counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender.  No termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall affect or impair the indemnification provisions contained in this Section 8.2 and all such provisions shall survive such termination.

 

8.3Reserved. 

 

8.4Delegation of Duties and Rights.  Lender 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, representatives or through other Persons. 

 

8.5Foreign Assets Control.  Lender may disclose any and all information regarding Borrower and a Purchaser in connection with any regulatory examination of Lender or to the extent Lender deems advisable to disclose such information to such applicable regulatory agencies involving matters relating to the Trading With the Enemy Act, the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or the Executive Order; provided, however, that if Lender is legally permitted to do so, no such disclosure shall be made prior to the Lender (x) giving the Borrower prior written notification within one (1) Business Day after Lender's receipt of notice of any such required disclosure or decision of the Lender to make such disclosure, that explains in reasonable detail (if known to Lender), the basis for such disclosure, which notification shall include the following: (i) the contents of the disclosure, (ii) the Person to whom the disclosure must be made, and (iii) if known to Lender, the legal basis for the disclosure; (y) using commercially reasonable efforts to require that any recipient of such disclosure maintain such information on a confidential basis in accordance with all Legal Requirements, including all applicable consumer privacy laws; and (z) if Lender is legally permitted to do so, providing Borrower with an opportunity to redact all of the names, social security numbers and bank account numbers of, and all non-public personal information pertaining to, any Purchasers.

9.13 FORUM SELECTION; JURISDICTION; CHOICE OF LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA, THE PRIMARY PLACE OF BUSINESS OF LENDER, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.  BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WERE SUBSTANTIALLY NEGOTIATED IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WERE DELIVERED BY BORROWER IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA, EXECUTED BY LENDER IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA AND ACCEPTED BY LENDER IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA AND THAT THERE ARE SUBSTANTIAL CONTACTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN AND THE STATE OF ARIZONA.  SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9.14, FOR PURPOSES OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ALL FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA AND BORROWER CONSENTS THAT IT MAY BE SERVED WITH ANY PROCESS OR PAPER BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF ARIZONA IN

---

 

ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW.  FURTHERMORE, BORROWER WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS, THAT THE ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM OR THAT VENUE OF THE ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER.  TO THE EXTENT THAT A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION FINDS ARIZONA LAW INAPPLICABLE WITH RESPECT TO ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THEN, AS TO THOSE PROVISIONS ONLY, THE LAWS OF THE STATES WHERE THE COLLATERAL IS LOCATED SHALL BE DEEMED TO APPLY.  NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE RIGHT OF LENDER TO COMMENCE ANY PROCEEDING IN THE FEDERAL OR STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATES IN WHICH THE COLLATERAL IS LOCATED TO THE EXTENT LENDER DEEMS SUCH PROCEEDING NECESSARY OR ADVISABLE TO EXERCISE REMEDIES AVAILABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY RULE OR CANON OF CONSTRUCTION WHICH INTERPRETS AGREEMENTS AGAINST A DRAFTSMAN.

9.14DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  This section contains a jury waiver, arbitration clause, and a class action waiver. READ IT CAREFULLY.

 

This dispute resolution provision shall supersede and replace any prior "Jury Waiver," "Judicial Reference," "Class Action Waiver," "Arbitration," "Dispute Resolution," or similar alternative dispute agreement or provision between or among the parties.

 

JURY TRIAL WAIVER; CLASS ACTION WAIVER. As permitted by applicable law, each party waives their respective rights to a trial before a jury in connection with any Dispute (as "Dispute" is hereinafter defined), and Disputes shall be resolved by a judge sitting without a jury.  If a court determines that this provision is not enforceable for any reason and at any time prior to trial of the Dispute, but not later than 30 days after entry of the order determining this provision is unenforceable, any party shall be entitled to move the court for an order compelling arbitration and staying or dismissing such litigation pending arbitration ("Arbitration Order"). If permitted by applicable law, each party also waives the right to litigate in court or an arbitration proceeding any Dispute as a class action, either as a member of a class or as a representative, or to act as a private attorney general.

 

ARBITRATION. If a claim, dispute, or controversy arises between us with respect to this Agreement, related agreements, or any other agreement or business relationship between any of us whether or not related to the subject matter of this Agreement (all of the foregoing, a "Dispute"), and only if a jury trial waiver is not permitted by applicable law or ruling by a court, any of us may require that the Dispute be resolved by binding arbitration before a mutually agreed upon single arbitrator at the request of any party. By agreeing to arbitrate a Dispute, each party gives up any right that party may have to a jury trial, as

---

 

well as other rights that party would have in court that are not available or are more limited in arbitration, such as the rights to discovery and to appeal.

 

Arbitration shall be commenced by filing a petition with, and in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules of, JAMS or National Arbitration Forum ("Administrator") as selected by the initiating party. If the parties agree, arbitration may be commenced by appointment of a licensed attorney who is selected by the parties and who agrees to conduct the arbitration without an Administrator. Disputes include matters (i) relating to a deposit account, application for or denial of credit, enforcement of any of the obligations we have to each other, compliance with applicable laws and/or regulations, performance or services provided under any agreement by any party, (ii) based on or arising from an alleged tort, or (iii) involving either of our employees, agents, affiliates, or assigns of a party.  However, Disputes do not include the validity, enforceability, meaning, or scope of this arbitration provision and such matters may be determined only by a court. If a third party is a party to a Dispute, we each will consent to including the third party in the arbitration proceeding for resolving the Dispute with the third party. Venue for the arbitration proceeding shall be at a location determined by mutual agreement of the parties or, if no agreement, in the city and state where Lender is headquartered.

 

After entry of an Arbitration Order, the non-moving party shall commence arbitration (but shall not be required to commence arbitration in the event of the moving party's decision not to do so as set forth in the next sentence). The moving party shall, at its discretion, also be entitled to commence arbitration but is under no obligation to do so, and the moving party shall not in any way be adversely prejudiced by electing not to commence arbitration. The arbitrator: (i) will hear and rule on appropriate dispositive motions for judgment on the pleadings, for failure to state a claim, or for full or partial summary judgment; (ii) will render a decision and any award applying applicable law; (iii) will give effect to any limitations period in determining any Dispute or defense; (iv) shall enforce the doctrines of compulsory counterclaim, res judicata, and collateral estoppels, if applicable; (v) with regard to motions and the arbitration hearing, shall apply rules of evidence governing civil cases; and (vi) will apply the law of the state specified in the agreement giving rise to the Dispute. Filing of a petition for arbitration shall not prevent any party from (i) seeking and obtaining from a court of competent jurisdiction (notwithstanding ongoing arbitration) provisional or ancillary remedies including but not limited to injunctive relief, property preservation orders, foreclosure, eviction, attachment, replevin, garnishment, and/or the appointment of a receiver, (ii) pursuing non-judicial foreclosure, or (iii) availing itself of any self-help remedies such as setoff and repossession. The exercise of such rights shall not constitute a waiver of the right to submit any Dispute to arbitration.

 

Judgment upon an arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction except that, if the arbitration award exceeds $4,000,000, any party shall be entitled to a de novo appeal of the award before a panel of three arbitrators. To allow for such appeal, if the award (including Administrator, arbitrator, and attorney's fees and costs) exceeds $4,000,000, the arbitrator will issue a written, reasoned decision supporting the award, including a statement of authority and its application to the Dispute. A request for de novo appeal must be filed with the arbitrator within 30 days following the date of the arbitration award; if such a request is not made within that time period, the arbitration decision shall become final and binding. On appeal, the arbitrators shall review the award de novo, meaning that they shall reach their own findings of fact and conclusions of law rather than deferring in any manner to the original arbitrator. Appeal

---

 

of an arbitration award shall be pursuant to the rules of the Administrator or, if the Administrator has no such rules, then the JAMS arbitration appellate rules shall apply.

 

Arbitration under this provision concerns a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. This arbitration provision shall survive any termination, amendment, or expiration of this Agreement. If the terms of this provision vary from the Administrator's rules, this arbitration provision shall control.

 

RELIANCE. Each party (i) certifies that no one has represented to such party that the other party would not seek to enforce jury and class action waivers in the event of suit, and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other party have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers, agreements, and certifications in this section.

 

9.15Interpretation.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents will not be construed against Lender merely because of Lender's involvement in the preparation of such documents and agreements.

 

9.16Destruction of Note; Substitute Note.  In the event the Note is mutilated or destroyed by any cause whatsoever, or otherwise lost or stolen and regardless of whether due to the act or neglect of Lender, Borrower will execute and deliver to Lender in substitution therefor a duplicate promissory note containing the same terms and conditions as the promissory note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, within 10 days after Lender notifies Borrower of any such mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of such note and delivery to Borrower of an affidavit certifying that the same was not negotiated and Borrower will only be liable on the replaced note executed by Borrower.  Upon Borrower's delivery of such duplicate promissory note, Borrower will be relieved of all obligations under the original promissory note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and will thereafter be bound solely by the provisions of such duplicate promissory note.  The Lender shall be entitled to have the Note subdivided into notes of lesser denominations or substituted for new notes, all containing the same terms as the original Note being substituted or subdivided, in connection with an assignment of all or any portion of the Loan pursuant to the terms of Section 9.8 hereof.

 

9.17Compliance With Applicable Usury Law.  It is the intent of the parties hereto to comply with the Applicable Usury Law.  Accordingly, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the Loan Documents, in no event shall the Loan Documents require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum contract rate permitted by the Applicable Usury Law.

 

9.18REFERENCE TO LENDER.  EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW AND FOR FILINGS MADE WITH THE SECURITIES & EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STOCK EXCHANGE ON WHICH GUARANTOR'S OR GUARANTORS' PARENT'S OR INDIRECT PARENT'S STOCK OR OTHER OWNERSHIP INTEREST IS OR MAY BE TRADED, BORROWER WILL NOT, AT ANY TIME, USE THE NAME OF OR MAKE REFERENCE TO LENDER WITH RESPECT TO THE TIMESHARE PROJECT, THE SALE OF TIMESHARE INVENTORY OR OTHERWISE, WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN CONSENT OF LENDER.

 

---

 

9.19NO JOINT VENTURE.  THE RELATIONSHIP OF BORROWER AND LENDER IS THAT OF DEBTOR AND CREDITOR, AND IT IS NOT THE INTENTION OF EITHER OF SUCH PARTIES BY THIS OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT BEING EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN TO ESTABLISH A PARTNERSHIP OR JOINT VENTURE WITH BORROWER OR ANY OTHER PERSON, AND THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE CONSTRUED TO BE PARTNERS OR JOINT VENTURERS.

 

9.20Scope of Reimbursable Attorney's Fees.  As used in the Loan Documents, the term "attorneys' fees" includes the reasonable fees of attorneys licensed to practice law in any jurisdiction, law clerks, paralegals, investigators and others not admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of a licensed attorney.  As used in the Loan Documents, attorneys' fees incurred by Lender in the enforcement of any remedy or covenant include attorneys' fees incurred in any foreclosure of the Loan Documents, in enforcing any rights of indemnification under the Loan Documents, in protecting or sustaining the lien or priority of the Collateral, or in any proceeding arising from or connected with any such matter, including any bankruptcy, receivership, injunction or other similar proceeding, or any appeal from or petition for review of any such matter, and with or without litigation.

 

9.21Confidentiality.  Borrower and Lender shall mutually agree on the contents of any press release, public announcement or other public disclosure regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder to be made following the mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement; provided that, (a) the Lender may disclose the terms hereof and give copies of the Loan Documents to assignees and participants and to prospective assignees and participants, and (b) Lender acknowledges that the terms hereof may be disclosed in the periodic filings related to Guarantor with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and in the notes to Borrower's and Guarantor's financial statements.  If either party fails to respond to the other party in writing with either an approval or a disapproval within five (5) Business Days of a party's receipt of the other party's request for consent or approval as expressly contemplated pursuant to this Section 9.21, then such consent or approval will be deemed to have been given, provided that such five (5) Business Day period will not commence to run unless and until the other party has received all information, materials, documents and other matters required to be submitted to it hereunder, with respect to such consent or approval and all other information, materials, documents and other matters reasonably essential to its decision process.

 

9.22Relief 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 the 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 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 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 Lender as provided in the Loan Documents.

 

---

 

9.23Reliance.  Lender's examination, inspection, or receipt of information pertaining to Borrower, any Guarantor, the Collateral or the Timeshare Project shall not in any way be deemed to reduce the full scope and protection of the warranties, representations and Obligations contained in the Loan Documents.

 

9.24Limitation of Damages.  Neither Borrower, Lender nor any of its Affiliates or successors shall be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages in connection with any breach of contract, tort or other wrong relating to the Loan Documents (including with limitation damages for loss of profits, business interruption or the like), whether such damages are foreseeable or unforeseeable, unless any of such damages arise out of or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such party or any of its Affiliates.  Furthermore, as between Borrower and Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for and Lender is hereby released from any claim or liability in connection with: 

 

 

Lender shall only be liable for any act or omission on its part constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence.  In the event Borrower brings suit against Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder and Lender is found not to be liable, Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by Lender in connection with such suit.  This Agreement is not intended to obligate Lender to take any action with respect to the Collateral or to incur expenses or perform any obligation or duty of Borrower.  Borrower's obligations under this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and repayment of the Loan.

 

9.25Waiver of Right of First Refusal.  Borrower (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) hereby irrevocably waives any right of first refusal it may have to purchase Timeshare Inventory (including without limitation the right of first refusal contained in any Timeshare Declaration in favor of Borrower, as declarant) with respect to any Timeshare Inventory acquired by Lender, or its nominee or assignee, through the exercise or enforcement of the Lender’s rights related to the Collateral under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  Borrower agrees that in the event that Lender, or its nominee or assignee, acquires title to any such Timeshare Inventory under the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, such Timeshare Inventory may be assigned, transferred or sold free and clear of any right of first refusal in favor of Borrower.

 

9.26Consents, Approvals and Discretion.  Whenever Lender's consent or approval is required or permitted, or any documents or other items are required to be acceptable to Lender, such consent, approval or acceptability shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  Whenever any determination or act is at Lender's discretion, such determination or act shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

 

9.27Patriotic Act Provisions.  The following notification is provided to Borrower pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:
