4.4. Limitation of Interest to Maximum Lawful Rate. Lender
expressly
disclaims any intent
to contract for,
charge or receive
interest in an amount
which exceeds the
highest lawful
rate. All sums paid or agreed to be paid
to
Lender for the use,
forbearance or
detention of the
indebtedness incurred
by
Borrower hereunder
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be
amortized,
prorated,
allocated and
spread throughout the term of such
indebtedness until
payment in full,
so that the rate or
amount of interest on
account of such indebtedness does not exceed the usury ceiling from
time to time
in effect and applicable to the Loan.
5.
Fees.
5.1. Loan Fee.
Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a loan fee equal to
$12,500,000 which is
fully earned by Lender and is due and payable in full upon
execution of this
Agreement. Such fee
shall not be
refundable in whole or
in
part, even if the full Maximum Loan Amount is not advanced.
Lender
acknowledges
receipt of a $10,000
deposit from Borrower
which will be applied
by Lender to
pay a portion of the loan fee.
5.2. Late Charge. In
the event that any payment required under the
Loan (other than the sum due upon maturity or earlier acceleration of the Loan)
is not received
by Lender within ten (10) days after the due date, Obligors
shall pay a
15
<PAGE>
late charge equal to
five percent
(5%) of the total
amount of such payment to
defray the expenses
incident to handling such delinquent payments, and to
compensate Lender
for the harm and
damages related to such late payments.
Obligors hereby
acknowledge and agree
that such late charges are reasonable in
light of the
anticipated and the
actual harm caused by the late payments, the
difficulties of proof
of loss, harm and
damages, and the inconvenience and
non-feasibility of Lender otherwise obtaining an adequate
remedy.
5.3. General. All of
the fees described above are not refundable in
whole or in part even if the full amount of the Loan is not
advanced. Lender
is
irrevocably authorized
to advance the sums
necessary to pay all or any portion
of such fees when due and payable to itself from the proceeds of an Advance or
as an Advance under the Loan.
6.
Payments.
6.1. General. Borrower

balance of the Loan
owed during

(i) The entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan,
all accrued and unpaid

this Agreement and of the Loan Documents, on the Loan Maturity
Date.
(ii) In addition to all other payments required, upon the
sale (and expiration
of any applicable
rescission
period) of each
Timeshare
Interest, Borrower
shall make a principal
reduction payment on
the Loan in an
amount equal to 25% of the sales price per sale of each Timeshare
Interest sold
(each, a "Release
Payment," and
collectively, the
"Release Payments").
Each
Release Payment shall
be made by the 20th day of the calendar month following
the month of the sale (and expiration of any applicable
rescission
period) of
the applicable Timeshare Interest. The Release Payment shall be
redetermined and
adjusted either to
increase or decrease the amount of the Release Payment, as
appropriate, no more
often than once at the end of each consecutive three (3)
month period following the execution of this Agreement, as
reasonably determined
by Lender so that upon the sale of 85% of the Timeshare Interests in Phase 2,
the Loan will be repaid in full.
16

anything herein or elsewhere to the
contrary, the

subsequently
invalidated,
declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be repaid
to a trustee,

insufficient
funds to pay any
real estate taxes for the Mortgaged Property then due and payable, Borrower
(during the

Association) will pay the amount of such deficiency to the
Association to enable
the Association to pay
all real estate taxes related to the Mortgaged Property
when due and prior to the incurrence of any penalties. Borrower
