NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth
herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Definitions; Interpretation. Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in "Standard Definitions"
attached hereto as Annex A.
SECTION 2. Acquisition of Timeshare Loans.
(a) Timeshare Loans. On each Funding Date, in return for the
Timeshare Loan Acquistion Price for each Timeshare Loan to be sold on such
Funding Date, to be paid in part in cash and in part as an increase in the value
of the Residual Interest Certificate held by the Depositor, the Depositor does
hereby transfer, assign, sell and grant to the Issuer, without recourse (except
as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), any and all of the Depositor's
right, title and interest in and to (i) any Timeshare Loans listed on the
related Borrowing Notice, (ii) the Receivables in respect of such Timeshare
Loans due after the related Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare Loan
Documents (excluding any rights as developer or declarant under the Timeshare
Declaration, the Timeshare Program Consumer Documents or the Timeshare Program
Governing Documents), (iv) all Related Security in respect of each such
Timeshare Loan, (v) the Depositor's rights and remedies under the Purchase
Agreement, including, but not limited to, its rights with respect to the
representations and warranties of the Club Originator therein, together with all
rights of the Depositor with respect to any breach thereof, including any right
to require the Club Originator to cure, repurchase or substitute any Defective
Timeshare Loans in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement and
(vi) all income, payments, proceeds and other benefits and rights related to any
of the foregoing (the property in clauses (i)-(vi), being the "Assets"). Upon
such sale and transfer, the ownership of each Timeshare Loan and all collections
allocable to principal and interest thereon after the related Cut-Off Date and
all other property interests or rights conveyed pursuant to and referenced in
this Section 2(a) shall immediately vest in the Issuer, its successors and
assigns. The Depositor shall not take any action inconsistent with such
ownership nor claim any ownership interest in any Timeshare Loan for any purpose
whatsoever other than for federal and state income tax reporting, if applicable
and on balance sheet for consolidated financial statement purposes. The parties
to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that the "credit risk" of the Timeshare
Loans conveyed hereunder shall be borne by the Issuer and its subsequent
assignees.
(b) Delivery of Timeshare Loan Documents. In connection with the
sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Timeshare Loans hereunder, the
Issuer hereby directs the Depositor and the Depositor hereby agrees to deliver
or cause to be delivered, at least five Business Days prior to each Funding
Date, to the Custodian all related Timeshare Loan Files and to the Servicer all
related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files.
(c) Collections. The Depositor shall deposit or cause to be
deposited all collections in respect of Timeshare Loans received by the
Depositor or its Affiliates after the related Cut-Off Date in the Lockbox
Account.
2
(d) Limitation of Liability. None of the Issuer, the Depositor or
any subsequent assignee of the Issuer shall have any obligation or liability
with respect to any Timeshare Loan nor shall the Issuer, the Depositor or any
subsequent assignee have any liability to any Obligor in respect of any
Timeshare Loan. No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the
Issuer, the Depositor or any subsequent assignee herewith and any such liability
is hereby expressly disclaimed.
SECTION 3. Intended Characterization; Grant of Security Interest. It
is the intention of the parties hereto that each transfer of Timeshare Loans to
be made pursuant to the terms hereof shall constitute a sale by the Depositor to
the Issuer and not a loan secured by such Timeshare Loans. In the event,
however, that a court of competent jurisdiction were to hold that any such
transfer constitutes a loan and not a sale, it is the intention of the parties
hereto that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Issuer as of
the date hereof a first priority perfected security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under the Assets specified in
Section 2 hereof and the proceeds thereof and that with respect to such
transfer, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable
law. In the event of the characterization of any such transfer as a loan, the
amount of interest payable or paid with respect to such loan under the terms of
this Agreement shall be limited to an amount which shall not exceed the maximum
non-usurious rate of interest allowed by the applicable state law or any
applicable law of the United States permitting a higher maximum non-usurious
rate that preempts such applicable state law, which could lawfully be contracted
for, charged or received (the "Highest Lawful Rate"). In the event any payment
of interest on any such loan exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the parties hereto
stipulate that (a) to the extent possible given the term of such loan, such
excess amount previously paid or to be paid with respect to such loan be applied
to reduce the principal balance of such loan, and the provisions thereof
immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder
reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to
comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the
fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder and (b) to the extent that the
reduction of the principal balance of, and the amounts collectible under, such
loan and the reformation of the provisions thereof described in the immediately
preceding clause (a) is not possible given the term of such loan, such excess
amount will be deemed to have been paid with respect to such loan as a result of
an error and upon discovery of such error or upon notice thereof by any party
hereto such amount shall be refunded by the recipient thereof.
The characterization of the Depositor as "debtor" and the Issuer as
"secured party" in any such security agreement and any related financing
statements required hereunder is solely for protective purposes and shall in no
way be construed as being contrary to the intent of the parties that this
transaction be treated as a sale to the Issuer of the Depositor's entire right,
title and interest in and to the Assets.
Each of the Depositor, the Club, the Club Trustee and any of their
Affiliates hereby agrees to make the appropriate entries in its general
accounting records to indicate that the Timeshare Loans have been transferred to
the Indenture Trustee and constitute a part of the Issuer's estate in accordance
with the terms of the Trust created under the Trust Agreement.
3

the Issuer. The obligations of the Issuer to purchase any Timeshare Loans

(i) Due Incorporation; Valid Existence; Good Standing. It is a
corporation duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation; and is duly qualified to do
business as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of
each jurisdiction where the character of its property, the nature of its

such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified

perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated
hereunder or thereunder or the validity or enforceability of any Timeshare
Loans.

aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding,

thereunder or the validity or enforceability of any Timeshare Loans.

constitute legal, valid and binding agreements enforceable against it in
accordance with their respective terms subject, as to enforceability, to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution,
moratorium and other similar applicable laws affecting the enforceability
of creditors' rights generally applicable in the event of the bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or dissolution, as applicable, of
it and to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such
enforceability shall be considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
This Agreement constitutes a valid transfer of its interest in the
Timeshare Loans to the Issuer or, in the event of the characterization of
any such transfer as a loan, the
5
valid creation of a first priority perfected security interest in such
Timeshare Loans in favor of the Issuer.

provision of any law, governmental rule or regulation currently in effect
applicable to it or its properties or by which it or its properties may be
bound or affected, including, without limitation, any bulk transfer laws,

Loans, (C) violate any judgment, decree, writ, injunction, award,
determination or order currently in effect applicable to it or its

upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument.

6
(viii) Insolvency. It is solvent and will not be rendered
insolvent by the transfer of any Timeshare Loans hereunder. On and after

governmental body against or affecting it which, if decided adversely,

or required to be furnished by or on behalf of it pursuant to this

may reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect in the future,
the financial condition or assets or business of it, or which may impair
the ability of it to perform its obligations under this Agreement, which

or made adequate provision in its GAAP financial statements for the
payment of all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges due from

in good faith through appropriate proceedings or except where the failure
to file or pay will not have a material adverse effect on the rights and
interests of the Issuer or any of its subsequent assignees. It knows of no

Loans for an Original Club Loan is limited on any date to (x) 20% of the then
Aggregate Initial Loan Balance less (y) the Loan Balances of all Original Club
Loans previously substituted by the Club Originator pursuant to this Section
6(b) on the related substitution dates pursuant to this Agreement and/or the
Purchase Agreement. In addition, the Issuer acknowledges that the Club
Originator shall use its best efforts to exercise its substitution option with
respect to Original Club Loans prior to exercise of its repurchase option. To
the extent that the Club Originator shall elect to substitute Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans for an Original Club Loan, the Club Originator shall
use its best efforts to cause each such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan to
be, in the following order of priority, (i) the Upgrade Club Loan related to
such Original Club Loan and (ii) an Upgrade Club Loan unrelated to such Original
Club Loan.
(c) Optional Purchases or Substitutions of Defaulted Timeshare
Loans. The Issuer acknowledges that pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the
Depositor has irrevocably granted the Club Originator any option to repurchase
or substitute Defaulted Club Loans it has thereunder and as described in the
following sentence. With respect to Defaulted Timeshare Loans on any date, the
Club Originator will have the option, but not the obligation, to either (i)
purchase a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan at the Repurchase Price for such
related Defaulted Timeshare Loan or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans for such related Defaulted Timeshare Loan and pay the
related Substitution Shortfall Amounts, if any; provided, however, that the Club
Originator's option to purchase a related Defaulted Timeshare Loan or to
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for a related
Defaulted Timeshare Loan is limited on any date to the Optional Purchase Limit
and the Optional Substitution Limit, respectively. The Club Originator may
irrevocably waive its option to purchase or substitute a related Defaulted
Timeshare Loan by delivering to the Indenture Trustee a Waiver Letter in the
form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
(d) Payment of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts.
The Issuer hereby directs and the Depositor hereby agrees to remit or cause to
be remitted all amounts in respect of Repurchase Prices and Substitution
Shortfall Amounts payable during the related Due Period in immediately available
funds to the Indenture Trustee to be deposited in the Collection Account on the
related Funding Date in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. In the
event that more than one Timeshare Loan is replaced pursuant to Sections 6(a),
(b) or (c) hereof on any Funding Date, the Substitution Shortfall Amounts and
the Loan Balances of Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be calculated on
an aggregate basis for all substitutions made on such Funding Date.
(e) Schedule of Timeshare Loans. The Issuer hereby directs and the
Depositor hereby agrees, on each date on which a Timeshare Loan has been
repurchased, purchased or substituted, to provide or cause to be provided to the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee with a electronic supplement to the Schedule of
Timeshare Loans reflecting the removal and/or substitution of Timeshare Loans
and subjecting any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans to the provisions of
this Agreement.
(f) Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans. On the related Transfer
Date, the Issuer hereby directs and the Depositor hereby agrees to deliver or to
cause the delivery of the
12
Timeshare Loan Files relating to the Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans to the
Indenture Trustee or to the Custodian, at the direction of the Indenture
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. As of such related
Transfer Date, the Depositor does hereby transfer, assign, sell and grant to the
Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof),
any and all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to (i) each
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan conveyed to the Issuer on such Transfer
Date, (ii) the Receivables in respect of the Qualified Substitute Timeshare
Loans due after the related Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare Loan
Documents (excluding any rights as developer or declarant under the Timeshare
Declaration, the Timeshare Program Consumer Documents or the Timeshare Program
Governing Documents), (iv) all Related Security in respect of such Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans, (v) the Depositor's rights and remedies under the
Purchase Agreement with respect to such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans and
(vi) all income, payments, proceeds and other benefits and rights related to any
of the foregoing. Upon such sale, the ownership of each Qualified Substitute
Timeshare Loan and all collections allocable to principal and interest thereon
since the related Cut-Off Date and all other property interests or rights
conveyed pursuant to and referenced in this Section 6(f) shall immediately vest
in the Issuer, its successors and assigns. The Depositor shall not take any
action inconsistent with such ownership nor claim any ownership interest in any
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan for any purpose whatsoever other than
consolidated financial and federal and state income tax reporting. The Depositor
agrees that such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be subject to the
provisions of this Agreement and shall thereafter be deemed a "Timeshare Loan"
for the purposes of this Agreement.
(g) Officer's Certificate for Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans.
The Depositor shall, on each related Transfer Date, certify or cause to be
certified in writing to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee that each new
Timeshare Loan meets all the criteria of the definition of "Qualified Substitute
Timeshare Loan" and that (i) the Timeshare Loan Files for such Qualified
Substitute Timeshare Loans have been delivered to the Custodian or shall be
delivered within five Business Days, and (ii) the Timeshare Loan Servicing Files
for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans have been delivered to the
Servicer.
(h) Release. In connection with any repurchase, purchase or
substitution of one or more Timeshare Loans contemplated by this Section 6, upon
satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Section 6, the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver or shall cause the execution and
delivery of such releases and instruments of transfer or assignment presented to
it by the Depositor, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to
vest in the Depositor or its designee the legal and beneficial ownership of such
Timeshare Loans; provided, however, that with respect to any release of a
Timeshare Loan that is substituted by a Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan, the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall not execute and deliever or cause the
execution and delivery of such releases and instruments of transfer or
assignment until the the Agent and the Servicer receive a Custodian's
Certification for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan. The Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release the related Timeshare
Loan Files to the Depositor or its designee and the Servicer to release the
related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the Depositor or its designee;
provided, however, that with respect to any Timeshare Loan File or Timeshare
Loan Servicing File related to a Timeshare Loan that has been substituted by a
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan, the Issuer and the
13
Indenture Trustee shall not cause the Custodian and the Servicer to release the
related Timeshare Loan File and the Timeshare Loan Servicing File, respectively,
until the Agent and the Servicer receive a Custodian's Certification for such
Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan.
(i) Sole Remedy. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of
the Depositor contained in Section 6(a) to cure a material breach, or to
repurchase or substitute Defective Timeshare Loans and the obligation of the
Depositor to indemnify pursuant to Section 8, shall constitute the sole remedies
available to the Issuer or its subsequent assignees for the breaches of any
representation or warranty contained in Section 5 and such remedies are not
intended to and do not constitute "credit recourse" to the Depositor.
SECTION 7. Additional Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor
hereby covenants and agrees with the Issuer as follows:
(a) It shall comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders
applicable to it and its business and properties except where the failure to
comply will not have a material adverse effect on its business or its ability to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or
thereunder or the validity or enforceability of the Timeshare Loans.
(b) It shall preserve and maintain its existence (corporate or
otherwise), rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its
organization and except where the failure to so preserve and maintain will not
have a material adverse effect on its business or its ability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it
is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder or the
validity or enforceability of the Timeshare Loans.
(c) On each Funding Date, as applicable, it shall indicate in its
and its Affiliates' computer files and other records that each Timeshare Loan
has been sold to the Issuer.
(d) It shall respond to any inquiries with respect to ownership of a
Timeshare Loan by stating that such Timeshare Loan has been sold to the Issuer
and that the Issuer is the owner of such Timeshare Loan.
(e) On or prior to the Closing Date, it shall file or cause to be
filed, at its own expense, financing statements in favor of the Issuer, and, if
applicable, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, with respect to
the Timeshare Loans, in the form and manner reasonably requested by the Issuer
or its assigns. The Depositor shall deliver file-stamped copies of such
financing statements to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the
Noteholders.
(f) It agrees from time to time, at its expense, to promptly execute
and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further
actions, that may be necessary, or that the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may
reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the sale of the
Timeshare Loans to the Issuer, or to enable the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee
to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder or under any Timeshare
Loan including, but not limited to, powers of attorney, UCC financing statements
and assignments of
14
mortgage. It hereby appoints the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee as
attorneys-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is
therefore irrevocable, to act on behalf and in the name of the Depositor under
this Section 7(f).
(g) Any change in the legal name of the Depositor and any use by it
of any tradename, fictitious name, assumed name or "doing business as" name
occurring after the Closing Date shall be promptly within ten Business Days
disclosed to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in writing.
(h) Upon the discovery or receipt of notice by a Responsible Officer
of the Depositor of a breach of any of its representations or warranties and
covenants contained herein, the Depositor shall promptly disclose to the Issuer
and the Indenture Trustee, in reasonable detail, the nature of such breach.
(i) Except to the extent of any payments received with respect to a
Credit Card Timeshare Loan, in the event that the Depositor shall receive any
payments in respect of a Timeshare Loan after the Closing Date or Funding Date,
as applicable, the Depositor shall, within two Business Days of receipt,
transfer or cause to be transferred, such payments to the Lockbox Account.
Payments received by the Depositor with respect to Credit Card Timeshare Loans,
without regard to any discount fees, shall be transferred to the Lockbox Account
within five Business Days.
(j) The Depositor will keep its principal place of business and
chief executive office and the office where it keeps its records concerning the
Timeshare Loans at the address of the Depositor listed herein and shall notify
the parties hereto of any change to the same at least 30 days prior thereto.
(k) In the event that the Depositor or the Issuer or any assignee of
the Issuer receives actual notice of any transfer taxes arising out of the
transfer, assignment and conveyance of a Timeshare Loan to the Issuer, on
written demand by the Issuer, or upon the Depositor otherwise being given notice
thereof, the Depositor shall pay, and otherwise indemnify and hold the Issuer,
or any subsequent assignee, harmless, on an after-tax basis, from and against
any and all such transfer taxes.
(l) The Depositor authorizes the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to
file continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to the Timeshare
Loans and all payments made with regard to the related Timeshare Loans without
the signature of the Depositor where permitted by law. A photocopy or other
reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement
where permitted by law. The Issuer confirms that it is not its present intention
to file a photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement as a financing
statement, but reserves the right to do so if, in its good faith determination,
there is at such time no reasonable alternative remaining to it.
(m) The Depositor agrees to properly disclose and account for the
transfer of Timeshare Loans hereunder as an on balance sheet transaction under
and in accordance with GAAP.
15
SECTION 8. Indemnification.
(a) The Depositor agrees to indemnify the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, the Noteholders, the Purchasers and the Agent (collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties") against any and all claims, losses, liabilities,
(including reasonable legal fees and related costs) that the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Agent may sustain directly related to
any breach of the representations and warranties of the Depositor under Section
5 hereof (the "Indemnified Amounts") excluding, however (i) Indemnified Amounts
to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of such Indemnified Party; (ii) any recourse for any uncollectible
Timeshare Loan not related to a breach of representation or warranty; (iii)
recourse to the Depositor for a Defective Timeshare Loan so long as the same is
cured, substituted or repurchased pursuant to Section 6 hereof, (iv) income,
franchise or similar taxes by such Indemnified Party arising out of or as a
result of this Agreement or the transfer of the Timeshare Loans; (v) Indemnified
Amounts attributable to any violation by an Indemnified Party of any Requirement
of Law related to an Indemnified Party; or (vi) the operation or administration
of the Indemnified Party generally and not related to the enforcement of this
Agreement. The Depositor shall (A) promptly notify the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or
the Timeshare Loans, and relating to (i) the failure by the Depositor to perform
its duties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) a breach of
the Depositor's representations, covenants and warranties contained in this
Agreement, (B) assume (with the consent of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee,
the Noteholders or the Agent, as applicable, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld) the defense of any such claim and (C) pay all expenses in
connection therewith, including legal counsel fees and promptly pay, discharge
and satisfy any judgment, order or decree which may be entered against it or the
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Agent in respect of such

Section 8 and the recipient thereafter collects from another Person any amount
relating to the matters covered by the foregoing indemnity, the recipient shall
promptly repay such amount to the Depositor.
(b) The obligations of the Depositor under this Section 8 to
indemnify the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Agent shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and continue until the Notes are paid
in full or otherwise released or discharged.

not, directly or indirectly, institute, or cause to be instituted, or join any
Person in instituting, against the Issuer or any Association, any bankruptcy,

proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law so long as
there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the latest maturing
Notes issued by the Issuer.

(a) other than certain 50/50 Loans, payments due under the Timeshare
Loan are fully-amortizing and payable in level monthly installments;
(b) the payment obligations under the Timeshare Loan bear a fixed rate
of interest;
(c) the Obligor thereunder has made a down payment by cash, check or
credit card of at least 10% of the actual purchase price (including
closing costs) of the Timeshare Property (which cash down payment
may, (i) in the case of Upgraded Club Loans, be represented by the
principal payments on such timeshare loan since its date of
origination and (ii) in the case of a Sampler Converted Loan, be
represented in whole or in part by payments made on the related
Sampler Loan) and no part of such payment has been made or loaned to
Obligor by Bluegreen or an Affiliate thereof;
(d) as of the related Cut-Off Date, no principal or interest due with
respect to the Timeshare Loan is 31 days or more delinquent;
(e) the Obligor is not an Affiliate of Bluegreen or any Subsidiary;
provided, that solely for the purposes of this representation, a
relative of an employee and employees of Bluegreen or any Subsidiary
(or any of its Affiliates) shall not be deemed to be an "Affiliate"
(unless such person is an "affiliate" (as defined under GAAP) of
Bluegreen);
(f) immediately prior to the conveyance of the Timeshare Loan to the
Issuer, the Depositor will own full legal and equitable title to
such Timeshare Loan, and the Timeshare Loan (and the related
Timeshare Property) is free and clear of adverse claims, liens and
encumbrances and is not subject to claims of rescission, invalidity,
unenforceability, illegality, defense, offset, abatement,
diminution, recoupment, counterclaim or participation or ownership
interest in favor of any other Person;
(g) the Timeshare Loan (other than an Aruba Loan) is secured directly by
a first priority Mortgage on the related purchased Timeshare
Property;
(h) with respect to each Deeded Club Loan, the Timeshare Property
mortgaged by or at the direction of the related Obligor constitutes
a fractional fee simple timeshare interest in real property at the
related Resort that entitles the holder of the interest to the use
of a specific property for a specified number of days each year or
every other year, subject to the rules of the Bluegreen Vacation
Club; the related
I-1
Mortgage has been delivered for filing and recordation with all
appropriate governmental authorities in all jurisdictions in which
such Mortgage is required to be filed and recorded to create a
valid, binding and enforceable first Lien on the related Timeshare
Property and such Mortgage creates a valid, binding and enforceable
first Lien on the related Timeshare Property, subject only to
Permitted Liens; and the Depositor is in compliance with any
Permitted Lien respecting the right to the use of such Timeshare
Property; each of the Assignments of Mortgage and each related
endorsement of the related Mortgage Note constitutes a duly
executed, legal, valid, binding and enforceable assignment or
endorsement, as the case may be, of such related Mortgage and
related Mortgage Note, and all monies due or to become due
thereunder, and all proceeds thereof;
(i) with respect to the Obligor and a particular Timeshare Property
purchased by such Obligor, there is only one original Mortgage and
Mortgage Note, in the case of a Deeded Club Loan, and, only one
Finance Agreement or Owner Beneficiary Agreement, in the case of an
Aruba Loan; all parties to the related Mortgage and the related
Mortgage Note (and, in the case of an Aruba Loan, Finance Agreement
or Owner Beneficiary Agreement) had legal capacity to enter into
such Timeshare Loan Documents and to execute and deliver such
related Timeshare Loan Documents, and such related Timeshare Loan
Documents have been duly and properly executed by such parties; any
amendments to such related Timeshare Loan Documents required as a
result of any mergers involving the Depositor or its predecessors,
to maintain the rights of the Depositor or its predecessors
thereunder as a mortgagee (or the Depositor, in the case of an Aruba
Loan) have been completed;
(j) at the time the related Originator originated such Timeshare Loan to
the related Obligor, such Originator or Club Trustee had full power
and authority to originate such Timeshare Loan and the Obligor had
good and indefeasible fee title or good and marketable fee simple
title, or, in the case of an Aruba Loan, a cooperative interest, as
applicable, to the Timeshare Property related to such Timeshare
Loan, free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens;
(k) the related Mortgage (or, in the case of an Aruba Loan, the related
Finance Agreement or Owner Beneficiary Agreement) contains customary
and enforceable provisions so as to render the rights and remedies
of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the
related Timeshare Property of the benefits of the security interests
or lender's contractual rights intended to be provided thereby,
including (a) if the Mortgage is a deed of trust, by trustee's sale,
including power of sale, (b) otherwise by judicial foreclosure or
power of sale and/or (c) termination of the contract, forfeiture of
Obligor deposits and payments towards the related Timeshare Loan and
expulsion from the related Association; in the case of the Deeded

Mortgage, as applicable;
I-2
(l) the related Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any
collateral except the Lien of the related Mortgage;
(m) if a Mortgage secures a Timeshare Loan, the title to the related
Timeshare Property is insured (or a binding commitment, which may be
a blanket commitment, for title insurance, not subject to any
conditions other than standard conditions applicable to all binding
commitments, has been issued) under a mortgagee title insurance
policy issued by a title insurer qualified to do business in the
jurisdiction where the related Timeshare Property is located in a
form generally acceptable to prudent originators of similar mortgage
loans, insuring the Depositor or its predecessor and its successors
and assigns, as to the first priority mortgage Lien of the related
Mortgage in an amount equal to the outstanding Loan Balance of such
Timeshare Loan, and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to
the Indenture Trustee; the Depositor or its assignees is a named
insured of such mortgagee's title insurance policy; such mortgagee's
title insurance policy is in full force and effect; no claims have
been made under such mortgagee's title insurance policy and no prior
holder of such Timeshare Loan has done or omitted to do anything
which would impair the coverage of such mortgagee's title insurance
policy; no premiums for such mortgagee's title insurance policy,
endorsements and all special endorsements are past due;
(n) the Depositor has not taken (or omitted to take), and has no notice
that the related Obligor has taken (or omitted to take), any action
that would impair or invalidate the coverage provided by any hazard,
title or other insurance policy on the related Timeshare Property;
(o) all applicable intangible taxes and documentary stamp taxes were
paid as to the related Timeshare Loan;
(p) the proceeds of the Timeshare Loan have been fully disbursed, there
is no obligation to make future advances or to lend additional funds
under the originator's commitment or the documents and instruments
evidencing or securing the Timeshare Loan and no such advances or
loans have been made since the origination of the Timeshare Loan;
(q) the terms of each Timeshare Loan Document have not been impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, except (x) by written
instruments which are part of the related Timeshare Loan Documents
or (y) in accordance with the Credit Policy, the Collection Policy
or the Servicing Standard (provided that no Timeshare Loan has been
impaired, waived, altered, or modified in any respect more than
once). No other instrument has been executed or agreed to which
would effect any such impairment, waiver, alteration or
modification; the Obligor has not been released from liability on or
with respect to the Timeshare Loan, in whole or in part; if required
by law or prudent originators of similar loans in the jurisdiction
where the related Timeshare Property is located, all waivers,
alterations and modifications have been filed and/or recorded in all
places necessary to perfect,
I-3
maintain and continue a valid first priority Lien of the related
Mortgage, subject only to Permitted Liens;
(r) other than if it is an Aruba Loan, the Timeshare Loan is principally
and directly secured by an interest in real property;
