Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth in Item 2.03 below regarding the removal of Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (“Bluegreen”) as guarantor under the NBA Receivables Facility (as defined below) is incorporated into this Item 1.02 by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On September 25, 2020, Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, LLC (“Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations”), a 51% owned subsidiary of Bluegreen, amended and restated its revolving vacation ownership interest receivables hypothecation facility (the “NBA Receivables Facility”) with ZB, N.A. dba National Bank of Arizona. The Amended and Restated NBA Receivables Facility extends the revolving advance period from September 2020 to September 2023 and the maturity date from March 2025 to March 2028. In addition, pursuant to the Amended and Restated NBA Receivables Facility, the interest rate on all new advances made under the facility will be one month LIBOR plus 2.25% (with an interest rate floor of 3.00%). Further, if new advances of at least $25.0 million are made by June 30, 2021, the interest rate on borrowings under the facility at September 25, 2020, to the extent then remaining outstanding, will be reduced from the current rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.75% (with an interest rate floor of 3.50%) to one month LIBOR plus 2.25% (with an interest rate floor of 3.00%). The Amended and Restated NBA Receivables Facility provides for advances at a rate of 80% on eligible receivables pledged under the facility (decreased from the prior rate of 85%), subject to eligible collateral and specified terms and conditions, during the revolving credit period. The maximum borrowings allowed under the facility remains at $70.0 million Subject to the terms of the facility, principal and interest payments received on pledged receivables are applied to principal and interest due under the facility, with the remaining outstanding balance being due by maturity.

In addition to the amendments described above, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the NBA Receivables Facility, Bluegreen has been removed as guarantor under the facility. Further, subject to certain terms and conditions, recourse to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations will be limited to approximately $23.8 million as of September 25, 2020 and will be reduced by $1.3 million per month starting October 31, 2020 until it reaches a floor of $10.0 million. As of September 25, 2020, approximately $23.8 million was outstanding under the NBA Receivables Facility.

The foregoing description of the NBA Receivables Facility, as amended and restated on September 25, 2020, is a summary only, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and related promissory note, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

(Hypothecation Facility)



THIS THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (together with the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto, collectively, this Agreement) is made as of September 25,  2020 by and between BLUEGREEN/BIG CEDAR VACATIONS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Borrower) and ZB, N.A. DBA NATIONAL BANK OF ARIZONA, a national banking association (Lender).



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 Long Creek Project, the Big Cedar Project and the Paradise Point Project.  In addition to other component site resorts, each of the Long Creek Project, the Big Cedar Project and the Paradise Point Project are component site resorts within the Bluegreen Vacation Club. 



C.    When a Purchaser purchases a Timeshare Interest in any of the Timeshare Projects, the purchased Timeshare Interest 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.    If the Borrower provides purchase money financing to the Purchaser, the Vacation Club Trustee (as the title holder of the purchased Timeshare Interest), at the direction of the Purchaser, executes the Purchaser Mortgage in favor of the Borrower to secure such financing.  To the extent that the Purchaser Mortgage is assigned to Lender in consideration for an Advance, the Lender becomes an Interest Holder Beneficiary under the Vacation Club Trust Agreement and is thereby entitled to all of the benefits accruing under the Vacation Club Trust Agreement to Interest Holder Beneficiaries.



E.    Borrower and Lender entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2010, which was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (Hypothecation Facility), dated as of June 30, 2015 (the “First A&R Loan Agreement”).  The First A&R Loan Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (Hypothecation Facility), dated as of September 28, 2017 which was amended in certain respects pursuant to that certain Letter Agreement between Lender and Borrower dated April 22, 2020  (collectively, the “Second A&R Loan Agreement”).  Under the Second A&R Loan Agreement, Lender agreed to make

 


 

 

a revolving loan (defined below as the “Loan”) for purposes of financing receivables arising from the sale of Timeshare Interests at Bluegreen Wilderness Club at Big Cedar, Long Creek Ranch at Big Cedar and Paradise Point Resort. 



F.    In addition to the foregoing Loan, Borrower and Lender were parties to another loan transaction, the purpose of which is to provide Borrower with an inventory loan facility (the Inventory Loan).  The Inventory Loan was evidenced by, among other documents, a Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (Inventory Loan) dated September 28, 2017 (as amended from time to time, the Inventory Loan Agreement).  The Inventory Loan has been paid in full and the Inventory Loan Agreement has been fully released and terminated. 



G.    Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Lender and Borrower desire to amend and restate the Second A&R Loan Agreement through the execution of this Agreement, in order to, inter alia, (i) retain Tranche F, (ii) establish a new Tranche G and set forth the terms and conditions under which the proceeds of Tranche G will be advanced and the interest rate at which Tranche G will accrue,  (iii) release Bluegreen as a guarantor under the Loan, (iv) provide that the Loan and other obligations thereunder are partially nonrecourse to the Borrower as set forth in this Agreement, (v) extend the Borrowing Term and the Maturity Date,  (vi) modify the definition of Eligible Notes Receivable in certain respects, (vii) lower the Borrowing Base percentage in certain respects and (viii) modify the Second A&R Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents in certain other respects.    



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

The words hereof,  herein and hereunder and words of similar import when used in this Agreement will refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  In this Agreement in the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word from means from and including and the words to and until each means to but excluding, and reference to a numbered or lettered subdivision of an Article, section or paragraph shall include relevant matter within the Article, section or paragraph which is applicable to but not within such numbered or lettered subdivision.  Whenever the words including,  include, or includes are used in the Loan Documents, they shall be interpreted in a non-exclusive manner as though the words, without limitation, immediately followed the same.



2.    LOAN COMMITMENT; USE OF PROCEEDS



2.1    Loan Commitment.



(a)    Determination of Advance Amounts.  Lender hereby agrees, if Borrower has Performed all of the Obligations then due, to make Advances to Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the purposes specified in Section 2.3.  The maximum amount of an Advance shall be equal to (a) the aggregate Borrowing Base for all Eligible Notes Receivable less (b) the then unpaid principal balance of the Loan; provided, however, at no time shall the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceed the Maximum Loan Amount. Furthermore, Lender hereby agrees, if Borrower has Performed all the Obligations then due, to make Availability Advances to Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the purposes specified in Section 2.3.  The maximum amount of any Availability Advance shall be equal to (a) eighty percent (80%) of the then‑outstanding principal balance of all Eligible Notes Receivable pledged to Lender less (b) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan; provided, however, that at no time shall the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceed the Maximum Loan Amount.  In addition to satisfying all of the conditions precedent to the making of an Advance, as a condition of an Availability Advance, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Request for Availability Advance substantially in the form and

24

 


 

 

substance of Exhibit U attached hereto, together with such other items which are reasonably necessary to determine satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto. 



(b)    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.



(c)    Jumbo Notes Receivable.    As set forth above, a Jumbo Note Receivable constitutes a Note Receivable or multiple Notes Receivable from the same Purchaser with a balance that exceeds $75,000.  However, for purposes of calculating the amount of the Advance that may be obtained under such Note or Notes Receivable that individually (in the case of one Note Receivable) or in the aggregate (in the case of multiple Notes Receivable) exceeds $100,000 in unpaid principal balance, and the Borrowing Base with respect to such Note or Notes Receivable, only the first $100,000 of unpaid principal balance shall be taken into account.  For example, in a case where a Note Receivable or multiple Notes Receivable from the same Purchaser have a balance (or aggregate balance) of $125,000, such Note Receivable or multiple Notes Receivable shall be deemed to have an unpaid principal balance of $100,000.  In such a circumstance, the amount of the Advance and the Borrowing Base with respect to such Note or Notes Receivable, shall equal $80,000 (i.e., $100,000 x 80% = $80,000) and the portion of unpaid principal balance in excess of $100,000 (in this case, $25,000) shall not be taken into account.  However, 100% of the payments made under such Jumbo Notes Receivable shall be paid to Lender as more fully provided in Section 2.7(a) hereof. 



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



2.2.1    Other Conditions.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary and subject to the conditions to making Advances set forth in this Agreement, Lender hereby agrees to advance to Borrower total Loan proceeds not to exceed an outstanding principal balance equivalent to the Maximum Loan Amount.  Tranche F (“Tranche F”) (i) constitutes a portion of the Loan, (ii) constitutes all Advances (including Availability Advances) of the Loan made prior to the Effective Date that have not yet been repaid and (iii) is referred to in Lender’s internal records as  “Note _9009”.    Tranche G (“Tranche G”) (i) constitutes a portion of the Loan, (ii) constitutes all revolving Advances (including Availability Advances) made on or after the Effective Date and (iii) is referred to in Lender’s internal records under a note identification number to be designated after the Effective Date and communicated to Borrower in writing (which writing may be in the form of an email).  Each of Tranche F and Tranche G (i) are evidenced by the Note and (ii) constitute a single loan.  Tranche F does not revolve.  Tranche G is a revolving line of credit loan facility and as the unpaid principal balance of Tranche F reduces, such reduction shall enable Borrower to obtain revolving Advances under Tranche G within the Borrowing Term, subject to all conditions precedent to the making of such Advance and to the further condition that the outstanding principal balance of the Loan not exceed the Maximum Loan Amount.  Advances of Tranche G shall be made subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein governing Advances (including Section 4.2 hereof), together with the following additional conditions: 



25

 


 

 

(i)    In the event the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceeds the Maximum Loan Amount, Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days following written demand, make payment to Lender in the amount of such excess. 

(ii)    Tranche G Advances shall be made in amounts of not less than $500,000 each (with the exception of the final Advance of Tranche G which may be in an amount less than $500,000) and shall be made no more frequently than once per calendar month.

    In addition to the foregoing, Availability Advances shall be made in amounts of not less than $250,000 each and shall be made no more frequently than once per calendar month, based upon the Borrowing Base calculation as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar month.

2.3    Use of Advance.  Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loan only for working capital, sales, marketing and other proper business purposes as it shall determine.



2.3.1    Aggregation for Purpose of Determining Shortfall.    Tranche F and Tranche G shall be deemed one single loan and the Borrowing Base for each of Tranche F and Tranche G shall be aggregated for purposes of determining the existence of a Borrowing Base Shortfall.  In addition, since all Tranches (inclusive of those tranches in existence under the Second A&R Loan Agreement) constitute one loan, all Notes Receivable pledged to Lender in connection with an advance under any such Tranche (inclusive of those tranches in existence under the Second A&R Loan Agreement) shall secure the prompt payment and performance of amounts due and owing under all such Tranches.



2.3.2    No Cross-CollateralizationFor avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and other than Lender’s lien on the Collateral, the Loan, and the Obligations hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents are not secured or cross-collateralized by any other properties, interests or assets whatsoever of the Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower.  In addition, and for avoidance of doubt, (a) the prior Inventory Loan was previously paid in full and any prior cross-collateralization between the Loan and Inventory Loan, as reflected in the Second A&R Loan Agreement, was eliminated contemporaneously therewith and (b) the acquisition loan advanced by Lender to certain Affiliates of Borrower to acquire the Eilan Hotel & Spa is not cross-collateralized with the Loan.

 

2.3.3    Revolving Facility.  To the extent that any of the Loan Documents provide that the Loan is a non-revolving loan facility, such Loan Documents are hereby amended to provide that the Loan is a revolving loan facility pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. 



2.4    Repayment 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.



2.5    Interest.  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

26

 


 

 

any escrow agent handling disbursement of an 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. 



2.6    Payments



(a)    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. 



2.7    Minimum Required Payments.



(a)    Periodic Loan Payments.  All payments (i.e., principal, interest, late charges and fees) made on account of Notes Receivable pledged to Lender shall be paid to Lender.  On each Business Day, until the Maturity Date or the date on which the Loan is paid in full, whichever date first occurs, Borrower will pay or cause to be paid to Lender (through the Lockbox Account in Lender’s name maintained under the Lockbox Agreement) 100% of all proceeds (except servicing fee payments and those payments described in Section 3.2(a)(ii)) of the Receivables Collateral (including all ACH (i.e., automated clearinghouse system) payments and checks) then collected under the Notes Receivable which constitute part of the Receivables CollateralSuch proceeds shall be applied by Lender against the unpaid principal balance of the Loan on Wednesday of each week and on the last day of each calendar month, or if not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day.    Regardless of whether the proceeds of the Receivables Collateral are sufficient for that purpose, (i) interest on the principal balance of the Loan from time to time outstanding and accruing during a

27

 


 

 

particular calendar month shall be due and payable in arrears on the 10th day of the next succeeding calendar month and (ii) the Loan shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.



(b)    Maximum Permitted Outstanding Principal Balance.    In no event shall the unpaid principal balance of the Loan exceed the following amounts as of the following required payment dates (each a Required Payment Date).  Borrower shall make any necessary principal payments to Lender, on or before the applicable Required Payment Date, in order to reduce the unpaid principal balance to the required amount (the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Principal Balance), in the event collections from the Receivables Collateral (inclusive of those collections that are to be applied against the unpaid principal balance of the Loan on the last day of each calendar month pursuant to Section 2.7(a) hereof) have not been sufficient to reduce the maximum outstanding principal balance of the Loan to the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Principal Balance prior to or on the applicable Required Payment Date.  Upon the expiration of the Borrowing Term, the principal balance of the Loan (inclusive of all unpaid Tranches) shall be calculated for purposes of calculating the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Principal Balance.  Subsequent to the expiration of the Borrowing Term, the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Principal Balance on each Required Payment Date shall equal the respective percentages set forth below of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan (inclusive of all unpaid Tranches) at the expiration of the Borrowing Term.

(c)    Borrowing Base Maintenance.  If there exists a Borrowing Base Shortfall during any calendar month for any reason including by reason of the fact that a particular Note Receivable is no longer an Eligible Note Receivable, then within twenty (20) days after the date of the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to Lender pursuant to Section 6.1(d)(v) showing such Borrowing Base Shortfall, Borrower will at its sole option either (a) make to Lender a principal payment in an amount equal to the Borrowing Base Shortfall plus accrued and unpaid interest on such principal payment or (b) deliver to Lender one or more Eligible Notes Receivable having an aggregate Borrowing Base not less than the Borrowing Base Shortfall; provided, however, such Eligible Notes Receivable may have an aggregate Borrowing Base less than the Borrowing Base Shortfall so long as Borrower simultaneously pays to lender the difference in cash.  Simultaneously with the delivery of Eligible Notes Receivable to correct a Borrowing Base Shortfall, Borrower will deliver to Lender all of the items (except for a Request for Loan Advance) required to be delivered by Borrower to Lender

pursuant to Section 4.2, together with a Borrower's Certificate in form and substance identical to Exhibit E.  Lender will reassign and endorse to Borrower, without recourse or warranty of any kind, an ineligible Note Receivable if:  (a) no Event of Default or Incipient Default exists; (b) Borrower has made all principal payments and Performed all replacement obligations as required above in connection with the Borrowing Base Shortfall and as a result there is no Borrowing Base Shortfall; and (c) Borrower has requested Lender in writing to release the ineligible Note Receivable.  Borrower will prepare the reassignment document which shall be in form and substance substantially identical to Exhibits F-1,  F-2, or F-3 (attached hereto), as to each of the Timeshare Projects, respectively, and will deliver it to Lender for execution. Lender will send or cause to be sent to Borrower the reassignment document and the Note Receivable being reassigned within a reasonable time (not to exceed 20 days) after satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified above.



In addition to, and not in limitation of the foregoing, and upon the request of Borrower from time to time otherwise during the Term, but no more frequently than once per calendar month, Lender will reassign and endorse to Borrower, without recourse or warranty of any kind, an ineligible Note Receivable if:  (a) no Event of Default or Incipient Default exists; (b)  there is no Borrowing Base Shortfall; and (c) Borrower has requested Lender in writing to release such ineligible Note Receivable.  Borrower will prepare the related reassignment document which shall be in form and substance substantially identical to Exhibits F-1,  F-2, or F-3 (attached hereto), as to each of the Timeshare Projects, respectively, and will deliver it to Lender for execution.  Lender will send or cause to be sent to Borrower the reassignment document and the Note Receivable being reassigned within a reasonable time (not to exceed 20 days) after satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified above.



2.8    Prepayment.



(a)    Prohibitions on Prepayment; Prepayment Premium.  Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not be entitled to prepay the Loan except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Borrower shall have the option to prepay the Loan in full, or in part, on the condition that Lender has received not less than 30 days prior written notice of such prepayment and that Borrower makes the simultaneous payment of a prepayment premium (the Prepayment Premium) equal to the following percentage of that portion of the principal balance of the Loan being prepaid:



Period

Prepayment Premium

Prior to the expiration of the Borrowing Term

5%

1 – 12 months after the expiration of the Borrowing Term

3%

13 – 24 months after the expiration of the Borrowing Term

2%

25 – 36 months after the expiration of the Borrowing Term

1%

37 months or more after the expiration of the Borrowing Term

0%



In the event (i) Lender releases a Note Receivable from its lien on the expectation that such Note Receivable will be part of a contemplated Securitization and (ii) such Note Receivable is ultimately not included in such Securitization, Lender shall have the exclusive right (to the exclusion of other third-party lenders) to finance such Note Receivable in the event Borrower desires to hypothecate the same in exchange for a loan advance.  Borrower shall not hypothecate such Note

29

 


 

 

Receivable to another lender unless and until Borrower has requested, in writing, an Advance from Lender against such Note Receivables (specifically identifying such Note Receivables as one which qualifies for the exclusivity in favor of Lender, as described in this section) and Lender does not make such an Advance within 30 days after Borrower has satisfied all conditions precedent to the making of such Advance. 



No prepayment shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to make regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest as required under this Agreement.



In addition, in the event of (i) a partial prepayment of the Loan subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.8(a), or (ii) a prepayment in full subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this  Section 2.8(a) or other repayment in full of the Loan and termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender shall release its security interest and reassign and endorse to Borrower, without recourse or warranty of any kind,  such Notes Receivable, Purchaser Mortgages and other related Collateral collaterally assigned to Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, provided that, if such prepayment is a partial prepayment of the Loan permitted under this Section 2.8(a) of this Agreement, Lender and Borrower shall mutually agree as to the collateral pool to be released, so that (i) the quality and nature of the Notes Receivable, Purchaser Mortgages and other related Collateral from a credit underwriting standard after such release is materially consistent (other than seasoning) with the quality and nature of the Notes Receivable, Purchaser Mortgages and other related Collateral from the credit underwriting standard that existed immediately prior to such partial prepayment and release, (ii) there is no Borrowing Base Shortfall, and (iii) no Incipient Default or Event of Default will result from such release.  All releases by Lender to Borrower shall be (a) in form reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and (b) at the Borrower’s cost and expense.  Borrower will prepare the related reassignment and release documents and will deliver them to Lender for execution. Lender will send or cause to be sent to Borrower the reassignment and related release documents and the Notes Receivable being reassigned within a reasonable time (not to exceed 20 days) after satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified above. 



(b)    Exceptions to Prepayment Prohibitions.  Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.8(a) to the contrary, the following prepayments shall not require the payment of the Prepayment Premium:  (i) principal payments scheduled under the Note including those payments required pursuant to Section 2.7; (ii) prepayments of the Loan resulting from prepayments of the Collateral by Purchasers which have not been solicited by Borrower in breach of the terms and conditions of Section 6.2(e); or (iii) prepayments resulting from the acceleration of the Loan under the Loan Documents.  Any such prepayment shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to make all regularly scheduled payments due under the Loan Documents. 



(c)    Prepayment Premium Payable for Involuntary Prepayments.  The Prepayment Premium shall be payable if the prepayment of the Loan is voluntary but shall not be required because repayment of the Loan has been accelerated pursuant to any of Lender's rights under the Loan Documents (including any right to accelerate following casualty or condemnation or when an Event of Default exists).



(d)    Prepayment in Connection with Securitization.  If Borrower conducts a Securitization of its Notes Receivable, and some or all of the proceeds of such Securitization are used

30

 


 

 

to make a prepayment, whether in full, or in part, of the Loan (each such instance a Securitization Prepayment), the obligation to pay a Prepayment Premium (if applicable) in connection with such prepayment shall be deferred for a period of twelve (12) months following such prepayment. If Borrower obtains aggregate Advances under the Loan of at least $15,000,000 within twelve (12) months after the date of the applicable Securitization Prepayment, then no Prepayment Premium shall be due or payable in connection with such Securitization Prepayment.   If Borrower does not obtain aggregate Advances under the Loan of at least $15,000,000 within twelve (12) months after the date of the applicable Securitization Prepayment, then a  Prepayment Premium (in the percentage amount applicable at the time of the Securitization Prepayment) shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of such twelve (12) month period.    



2.9    Loan Fees.    On the Effective Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender a loan fee (the “Loan Fee) in the amount of $175,000 and such payment shall be a condition to the closing of the Loan.  Borrower confirms that the Loan Fee has been fully earned.  Regardless of whether Borrower repays or is required to repay the Loan prior to the end of the Maturity Date, Borrower will not be entitled to any refund of all or any portion of the Loan Fee.  



2.10    Application 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 (other than those payments described in Section 3.2(a)(ii)) 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 in its capacity as Lockbox Agent or otherwise under the Loan Documents in connection with the Loan; (c) to the unpaid principal balance of Tranche F until the Tranche F principal balance is reduced to zero; and (d) to the unpaid principal balance of Tranche G until the Tranche G principal balance is reduced to zero.  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.



2.11    Borrower's Unconditional Obligation to Make Payments.  Whether or not the proceeds from the Receivables Collateral shall be sufficient for that purpose, Borrower will pay when due all payments required to be made pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, Borrower's obligation to make such payments being absolute and unconditional. 



2.12    Non-Use Fee.  If during any calendar month between the period beginning after the Effective Date and ending on the last day of the calendar month in which the Borrowing Term expires,

31

 


 

 

the highest unpaid principal balance of the Loan during such calendar month is at any time less than the applicable threshold amount shown on the chart below (the “Threshold Amount”), 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 positive difference between the applicable Threshold Amounts and the largest unpaid principal balance during such calendar month then ended under the Loan.  However, in the event the unpaid principal balance of this Loan is equal to or greater than the applicable Threshold Amount during such calendar month, then no Non‑Use Fee shall be due and payable.

2.13    Substitute LIBOR Rate  If Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that the LIBOR base rate (“Index”) (i) has been or imminently will be discontinued, (ii) is no longer an industry-accepted reference rate for loans of a similar type to the Loan and/or has been superseded by an alternative reference rate, or (iii) is no longer representative or may not be used pursuant to a public statement by the administrator of the Index or other regulatory authority (e.g., the Federal Reserve), in each case with respect to any type of loan or transaction, then Lender may select an alternative reference rate, which may reflect adjustments to the related spread or margin, but which shall closely approximate the Pre-Substitute Rate (collectively, the “Substitute Index Rate”), to be used in lieu of the LIBOR-based interest rate set forth in this Agreement (the “Pre-Substitute Rate”). 

32

 


 

 

Lender and Borrower acknowledge that the discontinuation of the Index is a future event over which neither Lender nor Borrower has influence but which will necessarily affect the Pre‑Substitute Rate.  Accordingly, Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select a Substitute Index Rate that Lender in good faith believes is a practical means of preserving the parties’ intent relative to the economics of the Pre-Substitute Rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that, initially and/or over time, the Substitute Index Rate will differ from the Pre‑Substitute Rate.  In selecting the Substitute Index Rate, Lender shall consider to what extent and the manner in which industry-accepted substitutes for the Index have been established, and the parties acknowledge that different Substitute Index Rates may be selected for different types of loans and transactions.  Borrower agrees that Lender shall not be liable in any manner for its selection of a Substitute Index Rate, provided that Lender makes such selection in good faith. 

The Substitute Index Rate shall be used in lieu of the Pre-Substitute Rate, and all references in this Agreement to the Pre-Substitute Rate shall be deemed to refer to the Substitute Index Rate, effective as of the date specified by Lender in a written notice given by Lender to Borrower.  To the extent practicable, such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the effective date.  The Substitute Index Rate shall remain in effect from the effective date set forth in such notice until the Maturity Date, as such may be extended, unless such an instance occurs where the Substitute Index Rate is no longer available, in which case the provisions of this section will again apply for purposes of replacing the Substitute Index Rate.

3.    SECURITY



3.1    Grant of Security Interest in Receivables Collateral



(a)     Grant.  To secure the payment and Performance of all of the Obligations, Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and collaterally assigns to Lender the Receivables Collateral.  Subject to Permitted Encumbrances, such security interest shall be absolute, continuing, perfected, direct, first, exclusive and applicable to all existing and future Receivables Collateral, and shall secure all the Advances and all of the Obligations.  All liens and security interests shall be first priority liens and security interests, subject to Permitted Encumbrances.  Borrower and Lender hereby agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Codes of the State of Arizona, the State of Delaware and the State of Missouri.  Accordingly, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Lender hereunder, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured party under the Arizona, Delaware and Missouri Uniform Commercial Codes.

(iii)    Borrower authorizes Servicing Agent (but Servicing Agent shall not be obligated) to communicate at any time and from time to time with any Purchaser or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable under a Note Receivable assigned to Lender with regard to the lien of Lender thereon and any other matter relating thereto and to request from such Purchaser or other Person any information related thereto.

developer or declarant's rights), (ii) any contracts, licenses, permits, plans or other intangibles used in connection with a Timeshare Project, the marketing and sale of Timeshare Interests and/or the management and/or operations of a Timeshare Project, (iii) the Reservation System (except that a non-exclusive license to use the Reservation System granted to any Person, including Lender, shall not be deemed a pledge, encumbrance or assignment (either collaterally or outright) or the granting of a lien or security interest in violation of this subsection 6.2(i)), (iv) any property management agreements in any way relating to any of the Timeshare Projects including without limitation that certain Management Agreement dated October  18, 2018, by and between Big Cedar Wilderness Club Condominium Association, Inc. and Bluegreen Resorts Management, Inc. and all replacements and substitutions thereof, that certain Management Agreement dated October  18, 2018, by and between Bluegreen Wilderness Club at Long Creek Ranch Condominium Association, Inc. and Bluegreen Resorts Management, Inc. and all replacements and substitutions thereof and that certain Management Agreement dated September 28, 2018, by and between Paradise Point Resort Property Owners Association, Inc. and Bluegreen Resorts Management, Inc. and all replacements and substitutions thereof, (v) any sales or marketing agreements in effect from time to time concerning the sale and marketing of Timeshare Interests at either of the Timeshare Projects, (vi) any other agreements now or hereafter in existence related to the development or operation of a Timeshare Project, including management, marketing, maintenance and service contracts, (vii) any intangibles, licenses and permits with respect to a Timeshare Project; or (viii) any right to vote on matters with respect to which owners of Timeshare Interests may vote, and Borrower shall not grant any proxy rights in that regard.  The aforementioned negative pledge shall be included within the financing statements that are filed and recorded against Borrower.

7.2    Effect of an Event of Default; RemediesSubject to the provisions of Section 7.10, at any time after an Event of Default has occurred (including an Event of Default arising from a failure to pay the Loan in full on the Maturity Date) and while such Event of Default is continuing, Lender may but without obligation, in addition to the rights and powers granted elsewhere in the Loan Documents and not in limitation thereof, do any one or more of the following:



(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;



(b)    with respect to the Receivables Collateral, (i) after any applicable delinquency on a Purchase Contract, institute collection, foreclosure and other enforcement actions against Purchasers and other Persons obligated on the Receivables Collateral, (ii) enter into modification agreements and make extension agreements with respect to payments and other performances, (iii) release Persons liable for performance, (iv) settle and compromise disputes with respect to payments and performances claimed due, all without notice to Borrower, without being called to account therefor by Borrower and without relieving Borrower from Performance of the Obligations, (v) [omitted], (vi) verify the validity and amount of or any other matter relating to the Receivables Collateral, by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise, (vii) direct all Purchasers to make payment of all Receivables Collateral directly to Lender or a Person designated by Lender, forward invoices directly to such Purchasers and receive and collect all monies due or to become due with respect to such Receivables Collateral, (viii) take control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of payment or proceeds of the Receivables Collateral; and (ix) enforce payment of and collect any of the Receivables Collateral assigned to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, by legal proceedings or otherwise, and for such purpose, Lender may:  (A) demand payment of any of such Receivables Collateral in accordance with the terms thereof; (B) settle, adjust, compromise, extend, renew, discharge or release any of the Receivables Collateral; (C) sell or assign any of the Receivables Collateral on such terms, for such amount and at such times as Lender deems advisable; (D) prepare, file and sign Borrower's name on any proof of claim or similar document in any proceeding filed under any Debtor Relief Laws as to any of the Receivables Collateral; (E) endorse the name of Borrower upon any documents, instruments or similar documents or agreements relating to the Receivables Collateral or upon any checks or other media of payment that may come into Lender's possession; or (F) take all other actions necessary or desirable to protect Lender's interest in the Receivables Collateral;



(c)    proceed to protect and enforce its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and to foreclose or otherwise realize upon its security for the Performance of the Obligations, or to exercise any other rights and remedies available to it at law, in equity or by statute;



(d)    request and have appointed a receiver with respect to Borrower and/or the Collateral, and to that end, Borrower hereby consents to the appointment of a receiver by Lender in any action initiated by Lender pursuant to this Agreement, and Borrower waives any notice and posting of a bond in connection therewith;



(e)    at its discretion, retain all or part of the Collateral in partial or full satisfaction of the Obligations to the extent permitted by applicable law; however, Lender will not be considered to

66

 


 

 

have offered to retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations, unless Lender has entered into a written agreement with Borrower to that effect;



(f)    Reserved.  



(g)    Reserved.  



(h)    increase the rate of interest accruing under the Loan to the applicable Default Rate;



(i)    immediately cease to make further Advances and from time to time apply all or any portion of the undisbursed amount of the Loan to the payment of accrued interest under the  Note and/or upon any other obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Loan Document.  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; and/or



(j)    exercise any and all other rights and remedies provided in the Loan Documents or available at law, in equity or otherwise. 



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 shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.



Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents may become immediately due and payable without notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or other notices or demands of any kind or character, at Lender's option, exercisable in its sole discretion. 



67

 


 

 

7.3    Application of Proceeds During an Event of Default.  Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, but subject to Section 7.5, while an Event of Default exists, any cash received and retained by Lender in connection with the Receivables Collateral or any other Collateral may be applied to payment of such of the Obligations as Lender in its discretion may determine.



7.4    Uniform Commercial Remedies; Sale; Assembly of Receivables Collateral.



(a)    UCC Remedies; Sale of Collateral.  Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code and all other rights and remedies accorded to a secured party at equity or law.  Any notice of sale or other disposition of the Receivables Collateral given not less than 10 days prior to such proposed action in connection with the exercise of Lender's rights and remedies shall constitute reasonable and fair notice of such action.  Lender may postpone or adjourn any such sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place of sale stated on the notice of sale or by announcement of any adjourned sale, without being required to give a further notice of sale.  Any such sale may be for cash or, unless prohibited by applicable law, upon such credit or installment as Lender may determine.  Borrower shall be credited with the net proceeds of such sale only when such proceeds are actually received by Lender in good current funds.  Despite the consummation of any such sale, Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency on the Obligations which remains outstanding following such sale.  All net proceeds recovered pursuant to a sale shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.5.  



(b)    Lender's Right to Execute Conveyances.  Lender may, in the name of Borrower or in its own name, make and execute all conveyances, assignments and transfers of the Receivables Collateral sold in connection with the exercise of Lender's rights and remedies; and Lender is hereby appointed Borrower's attorney‑in‑fact for this purpose, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest.



(c)    Obligation to Assemble Receivables Collateral.  Upon request of Lender when an Event of Default exists, Borrower shall assemble the Receivables Collateral or any portion thereof (in its possession) and make it available to Lender at a time and place designated by Lender, if it is not already in Lender's possession.



(d)    Registration.  Borrower recognizes that registration of certain of the Receivables Collateral or other Collateral under the federal and state securities laws may be impractical because of the expenses or delays involved in the registration process and that in the absence of such registration, Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  Borrower agrees that private sales so made may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such Collateral were sold at public sales, and that Lender has no obligation to delay sale of any such Collateral for a period of time necessary to permit such Collateral to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws.  Borrower agrees that sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner by virtue of any terms less favorable to the seller resulting from the private nature of such sales.

68

 


 

 



7.5    Application 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.



7.6    Lender'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.



7.7    Waiver 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.



7.8    Waiver 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:



(a)    All procedural errors, defects and imperfections in such proceedings;



(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 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.



69

 


 

 

7.9    No Set-OffFor avoidance of doubt,  and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender does not have, and shall not exercise any right  of set-off against any  property of Borrower now or at any time in Lender's possession in any capacity whatsoever, including but not limited to any balance of any deposit, trust or agency account, or any other bank account with Lender (exclusive however of the Lockbox Account over which Lender shall have exclusive dominion, control and set-off rights), as security for any Obligations.  In addition to, and not in limitation of the foregoing, at any time and from time to time following the occurrence of an Event of Default, or an event which with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, Lender shall not set off or apply any deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit of Borrower against any of the Obligations, exclusive however of any deposits contained within the Lockbox Account over which Lender shall have full set-off rights.  



7.10    Limited Recourse    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender acknowledges and agrees that the recourse of Borrower for any and all Obligations shall be limited to Twenty-three Million, Seven Hundred Seventy-six Thousand, Two Hundred Ninety-two and 21/100 Dollars ($23,776,292.21) (the “Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount”).  Provided that there does not then exist an uncured Event of Default, the Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount shall be reduced by the amount of One Million Three-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,300,000) on the last day of each calendar month, commencing on October 31,  2020 and continuing thereafter, until the Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount equals Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).  Lender further agrees that upon expiration of the Borrowing Term, the Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount shall be further decreased by any cash or Eligible Notes Receivable (at an 80% advance rate) which are contributed or pledged by Borrower to Lender to remedy any Borrowing Base Shortfall that may occur after the expiration of the Borrowing Term.



Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not seek to enforce any personal liability against Borrower (or any officer, director, representative or employee of Borrower) for or in connection with the Obligations by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment of more than the Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount of outstanding Obligations shall be sought and entered against Borrower.  Borrower and Lender agree that any judgment in any such action or proceeding in excess of the Limited Recourse Carve-Out Amount shall be enforceable solely against Borrower and only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral securing the Loan, and Lender shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower, its officers, directors, representatives or employees in any such or other action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender may, at its sole discretion, bring an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding against Borrower to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interests and rights in and to the Collateral securing the Loan. The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any Obligation evidenced or secured by any Loan Document; (b) affect the validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (c) constitute a prohibition against Lender to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to fully realize the security granted by the Collateral; or (d) constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to enforce the Obligations of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, limited solely to the extent of any actual, out-of-pocket loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or

70

 


 

 

other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with any of the following:

73

 


 

 

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. 

8.6    Release    In order to induce Lender to enter into this Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees as follows: 



(a)    Borrower hereby fully, finally and forever acquits, quitclaims, releases and discharges Lender and its officers, directors, employees, agents attorneys, successors and assigns (the “Released Parties”) of and from any and all obligations, claims, liabilities, damages, demands, debts, liens, deficiencies or cause or causes of action to, of or for the benefit (whether directly or indirectly) of Borrower, at law or in equity, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, whether asserted or unasserted, whether statutory, in contract or in tort, as well as any other kind or character of action existing on or before the date hereof and held, owned or possessed (whether directly or indirectly) by Borrower on account of, arising out of, related to or concerning, whether directly or indirectly, proximately or remotely (i) the negotiation, review, preparation or documentation of the Loan Documents or any other documents or agreements executed in connection therewith, (ii) the administration of the Loan Documents, (iii) the enforcement, protection or preservation of Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, or any other documents or agreements executed in connection therewith, or (iv) any action or inaction by Lender in connection with any such documents, instruments and agreements (all of the above being referred to herein as the “Released Claims”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Released Claims do not include any claims for future performance of express contractual obligations that mature after the date hereof that are owed to the Borrower by any of the Released Parties.  Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing is intended to be a general release with respect to the matters described therein.  Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that the waivers and releases contained in this Section 8.6(a) shall not be considered as an admission of and/or the existence of any claims of Borrower against any Released Party.



(b)    In addition to the release contained above in Section 8.6(a), and not in limitation thereof, Borrower does hereby agree that it will never prosecute, nor voluntarily aid in the prosecution of, any action or proceeding relating to the Released Claims, whether by claim, counterclaim or otherwise.



(c)    If, and to the extent that, any of the Released Claims are, for any reason whatsoever, not fully, finally and forever released and discharged pursuant to the terms above, Borrower does hereby absolutely and unconditionally grant, sell, bargain, transfer, assign and convey to Lender all of the Released Claims and any proceeds, settlements and distributions relating thereto.

In taking action pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender shall be entitled to rely, without further investigation, upon any notice, certificate, request for advance or other document delivered in writing and executed or signed by such representative of Borrower.  In addition, Lender may, at its option, refuse to take action in the event a notice, certificate, request for advance or other document is delivered to Lender which has not been executed or delivered by such representative of Borrower (other than as permitted pursuant to subsection 6.1(d)(v)).  Borrower may change such representative upon written notice to Lender.

9.8    Participation.    



(a)    At any time either concurrently with or subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, ZB, N.A. dba NATIONAL BANK OF ARIZONA and its successors (NBA) may assign to one or more banks or other financial institutions (such banks and other financial institutions together with their permitted successors and assigns, each, an Assignee) all or portions of its rights and obligations as a lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, not a varying, percentage of such rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to NBA, for its acceptance, such assignment documents (which shall include, without limitation, an assumption of NBA's obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment) as NBA may require, (iii) Borrower shall execute and deliver (A) such replacement promissory notes as NBA may require to evidence such assignment and the respective portions of the

79

 


 

 

Loan held by NBA and each Assignee and (B) such other documents as NBA may reasonably require in connection with such assignment; and (iv), such assignments shall be subject to the Borrower's approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that Borrower shall not have a right to approve the Assignee or the assignment if (A) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or (B) the Borrowing Term has expired, or (C) the Assignee is an Eligible Assignee.  If any such approval is not withheld in writing with a statement of the reasons therefor within ten (10) days after NBA gives notice of such an assignment, such approval shall be deemed given.  Upon such assignment and assumption, (i) to the extent of the interest assigned the (A) Assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a lender under the Loan Documents and (B) the assignor (including, without limitation, NBA) shall be relieved of such obligations and (ii) the obligations of NBA and Assignee to fund Advances shall be several in accordance with the portion of the Loan held by each, and not joint.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event the Assignee is an Eligible Assignee and also an Affiliate of NBA, NBA shall not be relieved of its obligations under the Loan Documents, and the obligations of NBA and such Affiliate to fund Advances shall be joint and not several obligations.  NBA and each Assignee may also transfer interests by way of participation; provided, in the case of the transfer of such a participation interest, (i) such selling party's obligations to the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii) such selling party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) parties to this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such selling party in connection with such selling party's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.  In order to facilitate such assignments and participations, the Borrower shall execute such further documents, instruments or agreements as Lender may reasonably require; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses incurred in connection with any such assignment or participation.



(b)    Upon any assignment of less than all of NBA's interest in the Loan, (i) NBA will continue to act as administrative agent on behalf of all of lenders and (ii) NBA and each Assignee may enter into such co-lending or other agreements with all of the Assignees establishing (among other things) procedures for administration and enforcement of the Loan, voting on various matters, the terms under which NBA will act as administrative agent (and if applicable, collateral agent), the terms and conditions governing further assignments and participations by Assignee (if and to the extent further assignments are permitted by NBA), and enforcement of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that under no circumstances will any such agreements between NBA and any Assignee alter, amend, change or result in the alteration, amendment or change to any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, without Borrower's prior written consent.  So long as NBA is acting as administrative agent, Borrower shall only be required and permitted to provide notices to and seek consents and approvals through NBA and Borrower shall not communicate directly with the Assignees, unless expressly approved by NBA.

(c)    Without limiting the other provisions of this Section, from and after each assignment permitted pursuant to this Section (other than assignments by NBA of its entire interest in the Loan): (i) all grants of collateral security (including, without limitation, each deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, assignment of rents and leases, and other assignments for security in the Loan Documents shall be deemed made to NBA in its capacity as administrative agent for the pro rata benefit of NBA and the Assignees as lenders; (ii) all obligations and liabilities of Borrower and pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be deemed to inure to the pro rata benefit of NBA and the Assignees as lenders; and (iii) all indemnity and reimbursement obligations of Borrower shall be in

(d)    As used herein, Eligible Assignee means (i) NBA or any of its Affiliates or (ii) any other bank or financial institution that has assets of at least $5,000,000,000; provided that  the identity of the Eligible Assignee (in the case of clause (ii)) shall be subject to prior written approval of Borrower which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.



9.9    Successors and Assigns.  All the covenants of Borrower and all the rights and remedies of Lender contained in the Loan Documents shall bind Borrower, and, subject to the restrictions on merger, consolidation and assignment contained in the Loan Documents, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.  Borrower may not assign its rights in the Loan Documents in whole or in part.  Except as may be expressly provided in a Loan Document, no Person shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of any provision of the Loan Documents. 



9.10    Severability.  If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under present or future laws, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.  In lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added to the Loan Document affected, a provision that is legal, valid and enforceable and as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid and unenforceable provision as may be possible.



9.11    Time of Essence.  Time is of the essence in the Performance of the Obligations.



9.12    Miscellaneous.  All headings are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect any construction or interpretation of the Loan Documents.  Unless otherwise indicated, all references in a Loan Document to clauses and other subdivisions refer to the corresponding paragraphs, clauses and other subdivisions of the Loan Document.  All Schedules and Exhibits referred to in this Agreement are incorporated in this Agreement by reference. 



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

81

 


 

 

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.



9.14    DISPUTE 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

82

 


 

 

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 repossession (but Lender shall not have the right to exercise any right of setoff against any of Borrower’s present or future accounts with Lender or any present or future accounts on deposit with Lender that Borrower holds jointly with someone else, other than the Lockbox Account). 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

83

 


 

 

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.



9.15    Interpretation.  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.



9.16    Destruction 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 9.9 hereof.



9.17    Compliance 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.



9.18    NO RELATIONSHIP WITH PURCHASERS.  LENDER DOES NOT HEREBY ASSUME AND SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY, OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY TO PURCHASERS, LENDER'S RELATIONSHIP BEING THAT ONLY OF A CREDITOR WHO HAS TAKEN AN ASSIGNMENT FROM BORROWER OF THE NOTES RECEIVABLE IN ORDER TO

84

 


 

 

FACILITATE PERFORMANCE OF THE OBLIGATIONS.  EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW AND FOR FILINGS MADE WITH THE SECURITIES & EXCHANGE COMMISSION, OR ANY STOCK EXCHANGE ON WHICH BLUEGREEN'S OR BLUEGREEN'S PARENTS 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 A TIMESHARE PROJECT, THE SALE OF TIMESHARE INTERESTS OR OTHERWISE, WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN CONSENT OF LENDER.



9.19    NO 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.



9.20    Scope 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.



9.21    Confidentiality.  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 Bluegreen with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and in the notes to Borrower'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.



9.22    Relief from Automatic Stay, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, in the event Borrower shall make application for or seek relief or protection under the federal bankruptcy code (Bankruptcy Code) or other Debtor Relief Laws, or in the event that any involuntary petition is filed against the Borrower under such Code or other Debtor Relief Laws, and not dismissed with

85

 


 

 

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 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.



9.23    Reliance.  Lender's examination, inspection, or receipt of information pertaining to Borrower, the Collateral or a 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.



9.24    Limitation 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: 



(a)       safekeeping any Collateral;

(b)       any loss or damage to any Collateral;

(c)       any diminution in value of the Collateral; or

(d)       any act or default of another Person (other than Lender or its Affiliates).



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.



9.25    Waiver 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 Interests (including without limitation the right of first refusal contained in any Timeshare Declaration in favor of Borrower, as declarant) with respect to any Timeshare Interests 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 Interests under the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, such Timeshare Interests may be assigned, transferred or sold free and clear of any right of first refusal in favor of Borrower.



86

 


 

 

9.26    Consents, 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.



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



(i)    IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT.  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product.  What this means for Borrower:  When Borrower opens an account, if Borrower is an individual, Lender will ask for Borrower's name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower and, if Borrower is not an individual, Lender will ask for Borrower's name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower.  Lender may also ask, if Borrower is an individual, to see Borrower's driver's license or other identifying documents and, if Borrower is not an individual, to see Borrower's legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.



(ii)    Government Regulation.  Borrower shall not (a) be or become subject at any time to any law, regulation, or list of any government agency (including, without limitation, the U.S. Office of Foreign Asset Control list) that prohibits or limits Lender from making any advance or extension of credit to Borrower or from otherwise conducting business with Borrower, or (b) fail to provide documentary and other evidence of Borrower's identity as may be requested by Lender at any time to enable Lender to verify Borrower's identity or to comply with any applicable law or regulation, including, without limitation, Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318.  



9.28    Errors and Omissions.  Borrower hereby agrees that it will, within ten (10) days of a request by Lender, comply with any reasonable request by Lender to correct documentation errors, omissions or oversights, if any, that occur in any documentation relating to the Loan.



9.29    Background Statements.  The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated into the operative provisions of this Agreement.



9.30    Waiver of Defenses and Release of ClaimsThe undersigned hereby (i) represents that the undersigned does not have any defenses to or setoffs against any indebtedness or other obligations owing in connection with the Loan by Borrower, to Lender or Lender's affiliates (the Owed Obligations), nor any claims against Lender or Lender's affiliates for any matter whatsoever, related or unrelated to the Owed Obligations, and (ii) releases Lender and Lender's affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents from all claims, causes of action, and costs, in law or equity, known or unknown, whether or not matured or contingent, existing as of the date hereof that the undersigned has or may have by reason of any matter of any conceivable

87

 


 

 

kind or character whatsoever, related or unrelated to the Owed Obligations, including the subject matter of this Agreement as of the date hereof. The foregoing release does not apply, however, to claims for future performance of express contractual obligations that mature after the date hereof that are owing to the undersigned by Lender or Lender's affiliates. As used in this paragraph, the word undersigned does not include Lender or any individual signing on behalf of Lender. The undersigned acknowledges that Lender has been induced to enter into or continue the Owed Obligations by, among other things, the waivers and releases in this paragraph.

9.32    Second A&R Loan Agreement.  The Second A&R Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in this Agreement.  This Agreement supersedes the Second A&R Loan Agreement in its entirety.  All of the rights and undertakings under the Second A&R Loan Agreement of the parties thereto existing as of the Effective Date are hereby confirmed and, subject to and, if applicable, as amended by, the terms and conditions hereof, continued under this Agreement.

Effective as of September 25, 2020



FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BLUEGREEN/BIG CEDAR VACATIONS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Borrower) hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of ZB, N.A dba NATIONAL BANK OF ARIZONA, a national banking association (Holder), in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds, the principal sum of Seventy Million and No/100 Dollars ($70,000,000) or such lesser amount as may be advanced by Holder to from time to time under the Loan Agreement (as defined below), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof, before and after maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, at the rates hereinafter provided, together with attorneys' fees and other costs of collection, as more fully provided below.

This Promissory Note (this Note) is executed pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (Hypothecation Facility) dated as of even date herewith between Borrower and Holder (together with any and all amendments, supplements and restatements thereof, the Loan Agreement) and evidences the Advances under a revolving receivables loan (the Loan).  This Note also evidences Borrower's obligation to repay, with interest, all additional monies advanced or expended from time to time by Holder to or for the account of Borrower or otherwise added to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Loan Agreement, whether or not the principal amount shall thereby exceed the principal amount stated above.

Section 1    Definitions

Initially capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement.

Section 2    Interest.

(a)    Except as otherwise provided herein, interest shall be computed and shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Basic Interest Rate.

(b)    Basic Interest is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, Basic Interest shall be computed 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. 

(c)    The contracted-for rate of interest of the Loan, without limitation, consists of the following:  (i) the Basic Interest Rate, calculated and applied to the outstanding principal balance of this Note in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Loan Agreement; (ii) the Default Rate, calculated and applied to the amounts due under this Note in accordance with the provisions


 

of this Note and Loan Agreement; (iii) the Loan Fee; (iv) the Non-Use Fee; (v) any prepayment premium or penalty; and (vi) all Additional Sums (as hereinafter defined), if any.  Borrower agrees to pay an effective contracted-for rate of interest that is the sum of the above-referenced elements.   

(d)    All fees, charges, goods, things in action or any other sums or things of value (other than amounts described in the immediate previous paragraph), paid or payable by Borrower (collectively, the Additional Sums), whether pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other documents or instruments in any way pertaining to this lending transaction, or otherwise with respect to this lending transaction, that under any applicable law may be deemed to be interest with respect to this lending transaction, for the purpose of any applicable law that may limit the maximum amount of interest to be charged with respect to this lending transaction, is payable by Borrower as, and is deemed to be, additional interest, and for such purposes only, the agreed upon and contracted-for rate of interest of this lending transaction is deemed to be increased by the rate of interest resulting from the inclusion of the Additional Sums.

Section 4    Maturity Date

The unpaid principal balance hereof, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon, and all other amounts payable by Borrower under the terms of the Loan Documents shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.  If the Maturity Date should fall on a day other than a Business Day, payment of the outstanding principal and all unpaid interest due under the terms hereof shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment.

(a)    Payments received by Holder pursuant to the terms hereof shall be applied in the manner required by Section 2.10 of the Loan Agreement, as that section is amended from time to time.

(b)    If any installment of interest and/or the payment of principal is not received by Holder within ten (10) days after the due date thereof, then in addition to the remedies conferred upon Holder pursuant to Article 7 of the Loan Agreement (as that article is amended from time to time) and the other Loan Documents, the Holder may elect to assess a late charge in the amount of 5% of the amount of the installment due and unpaid, as provided in the Loan Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such late charge shall be imposed upon a payment to repay the Loan upon the Maturity Date or upon acceleration of the Loan.

Section 8    Remedies

Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, subject to any applicable cure rights, without demand or notice, Holder shall have the option to declare the entire balance of principal together with all accrued interest thereon immediately due and payable and to exercise all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to any applicable cure rights (and so long as such Event of Default shall continue), the entire balance of principal together with all accrued interest thereon shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  No delay or omission on the part of Holder hereof in exercising any right under this Note or under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of such right.  The application of the Default Rate shall not be interpreted or deemed to extend any cure period set forth in any Loan Document or otherwise limit in any way any of Holder's remedies hereunder or thereunder. 

Section 9    Waiver

Except as set forth in the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note and expressly agrees that, without in any way affecting the liability of Borrower hereunder, Holder may extend the Maturity Date or the time for payment of any installment due hereunder, accept security, release any party liable hereunder and release any security hereafter securing this Note.  Borrower further waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the right to plead any and all statutes of limitation as a defense to any demand on this Note, any other Loan Document or on any security agreement or other agreement now or hereafter securing this Note.

Section 11   Severability

Every provision of this Note is intended to be severable.  In the event any term or provision hereof is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the balance of the terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain binding and enforceable.

Section 12   Interest Rate Limitation

The provisions of this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the sums evidenced by this Note exceed the maximum amount permissible under the Applicable Usury Law.  If from any circumstance whatever the performance or fulfillment of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement or of any other Loan Document should involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limit prescribed by law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled is hereby reduced to the limit of such validity.  In addition, if, from any circumstance whatever, Holder should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate under the Applicable Usury Law, then the amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied as an optional reduction of principal (or, at Holder's option, be paid over to Borrower), and will not be counted as interest.

Section 13   Security

Payment of this Note is secured by, inter alia, the Collateral.

Section 14   Right of Setoff

Holder does not have, and shall not exercise any right of set-off against any property of Borrower now or at any time in Holder's possession in any capacity whatsoever, including but not limited to any balance of any deposit, trust or agency account, or any other bank account with Holder (exclusive however of the Lockbox Account over which Holder shall have exclusive dominion, control and set-off rights).  

Section 15   Forbearance

Borrower agrees that Holder may release, compromise, forbear with respect to, waive, suspend, extend or renew any of the terms of the Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (and Borrower hereby waives any notice of any of the foregoing), and that the Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents may be amended, supplemented or modified by Holder and Borrower and that Holder may resort to any guaranty or any collateral in such order and manner as it may think fit, or accept the assignment, substitution, exchange or pledge of any other collateral or guaranty in place of, or release for such consideration, as it may require, all or any portion of any collateral or any guaranty, without in any way affecting the validity of the lien over or other security interest in the remainder of any such collateral (or the priority thereof), or any rights that it may have with respect to any other guaranty.  Any action taken by Holder pursuant to the foregoing shall in no way be construed as a waiver or release of any right or remedy of Holder, or of any Event of Default, or of any liability or obligation of Borrower, under the Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.

Section 20   DISPUTE 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 Note, related agreements, or any other agreement or business relationship between any of us whether or not related to the subject matter of this Note (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 Holder 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 Note. 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.

Section 21   No Defenses or Setoffs

The undersigned hereby (i) represents that the undersigned does not have any defenses to or setoffs against any indebtedness or other obligations owing in connection with the Loan by Borrower, to Holder or Holder's affiliates (the “Owed Obligations”), nor any claims against Holder or Holder's affiliates for any matter whatsoever, related or unrelated to the Owed Obligations, and (ii) releases Holder and Holder's affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents from all claims, causes of action, and costs, in law or equity, known or unknown, whether or not matured or contingent, existing as of the date hereof that the undersigned has or may have by reason of any matter of any conceivable kind or character whatsoever, related or unrelated to the Owed Obligations, including the subject matter of this Agreement as of the date hereof. The foregoing release does not apply, however, to claims for future performance of express contractual obligations that mature after the date hereof that are owing to the undersigned by Holder or Holder's affiliates. The undersigned acknowledges that Holder has been induced to enter into or continue the Owed Obligations by, among other things, the waivers and releases in this paragraph.



Section 22   Line of Credit

This Note evidences a revolving line of credit.  Advances under this Note may be requested either orally or in writing by Borrower or as provided in this paragraph.  Holder may, but need not, require that all oral requests be confirmed in writing.  All communications, instructions, or directions by telephone or otherwise to Holder are to be directed to Holder's office to which notices are sent under the Loan Agreement.  The following persons currently are authorized to request advances and authorize payments under the line of credit until Holder receives from Borrower, at Holder's address referenced above, written notice of revocation of their authority: any officer of the Borrower.  Borrower agrees to be liable for all sums either: (A) advanced in accordance with the instructions of an authorized person, or (B) credited to any of Borrower's accounts with Holder.  The unpaid principal balance owing on this Note at any time may be evidenced by endorsements on this Note or by Holder's internal records, including daily computer print-outs.

Section 23   Dishonored Item Fee

Borrower will pay a fee to Holder of $25.00 if Borrower makes a payment on the Loan and the check or preauthorized charge with which Borrower pays is later dishonored.

Section 24   Prior Note

This Note amends and supersedes the obligations of Borrower as evidenced by that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note dated September 28, 2017, in the original principal amount of up to $70,000,000, made payable by the Borrower to Holder, the original of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and shall not be negotiated separately from this Note (the Prior Note).  It is the intention of Borrower and Holder that while this Note amends and supersedes the Prior Note, this Note is not in payment, satisfaction, novation or cancellation of the Prior Note, but rather is the substitution of one evidence of debt for another, without any intent to extinguish the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Holder existing as of the effective date

of this Note and evidenced by the Prior Note.  The Prior Note shall be returned to Borrower only upon payment in full of this Note.
