installments in the following manner:

 

 

                                       19

<PAGE>

 

            (i) On each Interest Due Date, the Borrower agrees to pay the Lender

      an amount equal to 1/12th of 0.125% of the Loan Amount.

 

            (ii) At the earlier of (A) the Approval Period   Termination Date and

      (B) the   occurrence of an Event of Default,   any unpaid amounts in respect

      of the Program Fee shall be immediately due and payable.

 

Section 2.5. No Reduction in Commitment Fee or Program Fee

 

      The Borrower   acknowledges   that the   Commitment   Fee and the Program Fee,

required to be paid to Lender   pursuant to the   provisions   of Section   2.4, has

been earned upon   Borrower'   and Lender's   execution of this Loan   Agreement and

will not be   refundable.   Regardless of whether (a) Lender   advances any amounts

under the terms of this Loan Agreement or (b) Borrower   repays or is required to

repay the Loan on the date   required by Section 8.2,   the   Borrower   will not be

entitled to any refund of the   Commitment   Fee and the   Program   Fee   previously

paid.   Notwithstanding   anything   to the   contrary   contained   herein,   provided

Borrower   presents to Lender a Project,   which in Lender's   sole and   reasonable

discretion is a Project which meets its loan underwriting   criteria,   but Lender

refuses to fund the Project, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay a Commitment

Fee on said Project.

 

Section 2.6. Interest

 

      (a) The Loan will bear interest from the date of disbursement hereunder on

the unpaid principal at an annual rate equal to the Interest Rate.

 

      (b) On or before the 5th Business Day of each month,   commencing   with the

first month   after the Lender has   disbursed   proceeds   of the Loan,   the Lender

shall send to the Borrower an invoice   setting   forth the amount of interest due

for the previous month.   The Borrower will pay the interest due for the previous

month on or before the Interest   Due Date,   except if the Budget for any Project

includes an Interest Reserve,   then the Borrower may direct the Lender to make a

disbursement   from the Interest Reserve to pay the interest due on the Loan with

respect   to such   Project   until   such time as such   Interest   Reserve   is fully

disbursed, upon and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein.

 

      (c) Payments of principal,   interest and any other amounts due and payable

under the Loan   Documents   shall earn interest after they are due at the rate of

the Default   Rate.   At the option of Lender,   while an Event of Default   exists,

interest shall accrue at the Default Rate.

 

Section 2.7. Interest Rate Limitation

 

      The   provisions of this Loan   Agreement   and the other Loan   Documents are

hereby   expressly   limited so that in no   contingency or event whatever will the

amount   paid or   agreed to be paid to the   Lender   for the use,   forbearance   or

detention of the sums evidenced by this Loan Agreement exceed the maximum amount

permissible   under   applicable   law.   If   from   any   circumstance   whatever   the

performance   or   fulfillment   of any provision of this 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, the Lender should

 

 

                                        20

<PAGE>

 

ever receive as interest an amount   which would   exceed the highest   lawful rate

under applicable law, then the amount which would be excessive   interest will be

applied as an optional   reduction of principal (or, at the Lender's   option,   be

paid over to the Borrower), and will not be counted as interest.

 

Section 2.8. Repayment of Principal

 

      Principal of the Loan will be due and payable as follows:

 

            (1) Concurrent with the closing of the sale of a Timeshare   Interest

      pursuant to a Sales Agreement,   the Borrower will make a principal payment

      in an amount   equal to   Lender's   Release   Price,   which   amount   shall be

      applied,   until paid in full, to the payment of the outstanding   amount of

      the Project   Loan Amount   corresponding   to the Project   within   which the

      Timeshare Interest was sold.

 

            (2) In the event that,   for any reason,   the   aggregate   payments to

      Lender of the   Lender's   Release   Price for any Project Loan are less than

      the Minimum   Required   Principal   Payment for such Project Loan during any

      calendar   quarter,   then   within 15 days   after   the end of such   calendar

      quarter,   the Borrower shall make an additional   quarterly payment on such

       Project Loan to the Lender from Borrower's own funds of an amount equal to

      the difference   between the Minimum   Required   Principal   Payment for such

      calendar quarter and the aggregate   payments to Lender of Lender's Release

      Price for such calendar quarter with respect to such Project Loan.

 

            (3) Upon a Project Specific Default and so long as there is no other

      Event of Default or Potential   Default,   the   Borrower   may, at its option

      (but only if exercised   prior to the earlier of (i) the Lender's   exercise

      of its remedies under Section 8.2 and (ii) 30 days after the occurrence of

      the   Project   Specific   Default),   repay the   outstanding   balance   of the

      Project Loan Amount corresponding to the Project Specific Default.

 

            (4) If the Project   Loan Amount has not been repaid on or before the

      Project Loan   Repayment   Date for such Project,   the Borrower must on such

      date repay the entire   outstanding   principal   amount of such Project Loan

      together with all accrued and unpaid interest relating thereto.

 

            (5) In the event that the sum of the Project Loan Committed   Amounts

      for all Projects at any time exceeds the Loan   Amount,   the Borrower   must

      immediately   make   a   principal   repayment   in   an   amount   sufficient   to

      eliminate any such excess, which payment shall be applied by Lender in its

      discretion.

 

            (6) On the   Maturity   Date,   the   Borrower   is required to repay the

       entire outstanding   principal amount of the Loan together with all accrued

      and unpaid   interest   and all other   amounts owed to Lender under the Loan

      Documents.

 

Section 2.9. Adjustment to Lender's Release Price.

 

      Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion,   reserves the right to adjust

the   Lender's   Release   Price   applicable   to a Project   at any time   before the

applicable   Project Loan Repayment

 

 

                                       21

<PAGE>

 

Date to ensure that such fee is sufficient to repay the Project Loan Amount upon

the sale of 75% of the planned Timeshare Interests within such Project.

 

Section 2.10. Prepayment of the Loan

 

      The Borrower   shall have the option to prepay each Project Loan in full or

in part without penalty upon 30 days prior written notice to the Lender.

 

Section 2.11. Payments

 

      (a) All payments of principal,   interest and Fees on the Loan must be made

to the Lender by federal   funds wire   transfer   as   instructed   by the Lender in

immediately   available funds not later than 2:00 p.m.   Eastern   Standard Time on

the dates such   payments are to be made.   Any payment   received   after 2:00 p.m.

Eastern Standard Time will be deemed received by the Lender on the next Business

Day.

 

      (b) If any   payment   of   principal,   interest   or   fees   to be made by the

Borrower   becomes due on a day other than a Business   Day,   such payment will be

made on the next   succeeding   Business   Day and such   extension   of time will be

included in computing any interest with respect to such payment.

 

      (c) Throughout the term of the Loan,   interest and fees will be calculated

on the basis of the actual   number of days   elapsed   during the period for which

interest and fees are being charged predicated on a year consisting of 360 days.

 

Section 2.12. Applications of Payments; Late Charges

 

      (a) Payments   received by the Lender   pursuant to the terms hereof will be

applied in the following manner:

 

            (1) first, to the payment of all expenses,   charges,   costs and fees

      incurred   by or   payable   to the   Lender   and for   which the   Borrower   is

      obligated pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents;

 

            (2) second,   to the payment of all   interest   accrued to the date of

      such payment,   except that the payments   made   pursuant to Section   2.8(1)

      will   be   applied   to   the   payment   of   principal   in    accordance    with

      subparagraph (3) below and not the payment of interest; and

 

            (3) third to the payment of principal.

 

Notwithstanding   anything to the contrary contained herein, after the occurrence

and during the continuation of an Event of Default,   all amounts received by the

Lender from any party will be applied in such order as the   Lender,   in its sole

discretion, may elect.

 

      (b) If any   installment of interest and/or the payment of principal is not

received by the Lender within 5 Business   Days after the due date thereof,   then

in addition to the remedies   conferred   upon the Lender   pursuant to Section 8.2

hereof   and the other   Loan   Documents,   the

 

 

                                       22

<PAGE>

 

Lender may elect to assess a late charge of 4% of the amount of the   installment

due and unpaid, which such late charge will be added to the delinquent amount to

compensate the Lender for the expense of handling the delinquency.   The Borrower

and the Lender agree that such late charge   represents a good faith and fair and

reasonable estimate of the probable cost to the Lender of such delinquency.   The

Borrower   acknowledges   that during the time that any such amount is in default,

the 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 Effective Date of this Loan Agreement and

represents a   reasonable   estimate of the losses the Lender will incur by reason

of late payment.   The 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   the   Lender   from

exercising any of the other rights and remedies available hereunder.

 

Section 2.13. Approval Period

 

      (a) During the   Approval   Period,   Borrower   may request the approval of a

Project for funding from the   proceeds of the Loan by   complying   with the terms

and conditions of Section 3.1.

 

       (b) Commencing on the Approval Period   Termination Date,   Borrower may not

request   the   approval   of new   Projects,   although   proceeds   of the Loan   will

continue   to be   disbursed   with   respect   to   the   then   existing   Projects   in

accordance with the provisions of Article III.

 

Section 2.14. Revolving Nature of Loan

 

      The Loan is a revolving loan and any amounts which are repaid may, subject

to the terms of the Loan   Documents   limiting the amounts which may be drawn for

any Project and the terms restricting   disbursements of proceeds of the Loan, be

redrawn.

 

Section 2.15. Security

 

      Payment of the Loan by the   Borrower   and   performance   of the   Borrower's

other   obligations   under the Loan Documents will be secured by the Guaranty and

the   collateral   described   in the Project   Security   Instruments.   The Borrower

warrants   that   the   Project   Security   Instruments   will   create   a   valid   and

first-lien   position   with   respect to the   Projects,   subject only to Permitted

Exceptions.

 

ARTICLE 3. APPROVAL OF PROJECTS; DISBURSEMENTS OF THE LOAN

 

Section 3.1. Project Approvals; Project Commitments and Project Documents

 

      (a) During the   Approval   Period,   the   Borrower   may submit to the Lender

projects proposed to be included as Projects,   all pursuant to and in accordance

with the terms of this Loan Agreement. Upon approval as a Project and compliance

with the   requirements   of Section 3.2 and the other terms and provisions of the

Loan   Documents,   disbursements   of the Loan   will be made with   respect   to the

Approved Costs for such Project in accordance with this Loan Agreement.

 

 

                                       23

      (b) In order to include a proposed project as a Project, the Borrower must

submit to the Lender a complete   description of the proposed project,   including

the Project   Underwriting   Documents,   and evidence   that the   proposed   project

      (c) In the event that any   Project   is to be owned by a Person   other than

Borrower,   the Project   Underwriting   Documents   must specify the Project Owner,

which   must be a Person   which is owned 100% by   Borrower   or   Guarantor,   or is

otherwise   acceptable to Lender.   The Project Documents relating to that Project

will   contain a provision   whereby the Project   Owner,   in addition to Borrower,

assumes all of the   obligations   of Borrower then, or at any time in the future,

contained in this Loan   Agreement and the other Loan   Documents and agrees to be

bound by and comply with all the terms hereof and thereof.   In such an instance,

the   Project   Underwriting   Documents   must   include (i) the name of the Project

Owner,   (ii) the charter and   organizational   documents   for the Project   Owner,

including such documents as will specify who is to manage the Project Owner, and

(iii) such other information as the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion,

will require   regarding the Project   Owner.   (d) Upon its receipt of the Project

Underwriting   Documents,   the Lender   will have [30] days to review   and, in its

sole and   absolute   discretion,   approve or   disapprove   in writing the proposed

project as a Project which may be financed   from proceeds of the Loan.   Upon any

such approval,   the Lender will issue a Project   Commitment with respect thereto

and such   proposed   project   will   become a Project   for   purposes   of this Loan

Agreement   upon   Borrower   returning to Lender a copy of the Project   Commitment

containing the original   signature of Borrower   accepting the supplemental terms

and conditions set forth in the Project   Commitment;   provided however,   that no

Project   Commitment   will be issued with respect to any proposed   project unless

the Available Amount (plus any cash equity provided by the Borrower (as provided

for in the   Project   Commitment))   is at least   equal to the amount   required to

complete the acquisition of the Land and the performance of the Development Work

for such proposed   project.   The terms of each Project   Commitment issued by the

Lender   and   signed   by the   Borrower   shall   supplement   the terms of this Loan

Agreement   and shall be   applicable   with   respect   to the stated   Project,   the

related Project Loan and the related Project Security Documents.

 

      (e) It is a condition   precedent to the   approval of any proposed   project

that   the   Lender   shall   have   performed,    at   Borrower's    expense,    a   site

inspection/market   review with respect to such proposed project,   and the Lender

must be satisfied with the results of such inspection and review.

 

Section 3.2. Project Closings

 

      Upon   issuance   of a Project   Commitment   with   respect to a Project,   the

Borrower and the Lender shall proceed to execute and deliver the other   required

Project   Documents   for such   Project   and   close   the   transaction,   thereafter

allowing   proceeds of the Loan to be disbursed for such   Project.   The following

shall be the conditions precedent to the closing for each Project:

 

            (1)   The    Borrower    has    delivered   to   the   Lender   the   Project

       Underwriting   Documents,   all   the   documents   described   in   the   Project

      Commitment,   executed   originals of the other   Project   Documents and such

      other   agreements,   instruments,   certificates   and opinions as the Lender

      requires in connection with such Project.

      fixtures   covered   by the Deed of Trust   must be duly   perfected   and in a

      first-priority lien position.

 

            (4) All   taxes,   fees   and   other   charges   in   connection   with the

      preparation,   execution,   delivery   and   recording/filing   of the   Project

      Documents have been paid by Borrower. All delinquent taxes, assessments or

      other   governmental   charges or liens affecting the Project,   if any, have

      been   paid,   or if not   paid,   the   Borrower   has   posted   a bond or other

      security acceptable to the Lender with respect to such unpaid taxes.

 

            (5) An   opinion   of legal   counsel   located   in the state   where the

      Project is located in substantially   the form required by paragraph (2) of

      Exhibit A relative to the Project Documents.

 

            (6) As to any   Project   Owner for which   such   resolutions   have not

      previously   been   delivered   to   the   Lender,   a   certified   copy   of   the

      resolutions   adopted by the Project Owner authorizing the Project Owner to

      incur   or   assume   the   debt   related   to the   Loan   and the   Project   and

       authorizing   certain   officers of the Project Owner to execute and deliver

      the Project Documents.

      requested, together with copies of the billings of each such subcontractor

      or vendor;

 

            (2) at Lender's request, a written   certification from the Inspector

      to Lender, in a form   satisfactory to Lender,   that (i) the portion of the

      or materials appearing in the public records, and insuring the full amount

      of   the   disbursement,    provided   that   any   such   endorsement   may   show

      mechanics'   liens resulting from the   Development   Work if and only if the

      Title Company will issue an   endorsement   which insures Lender against any

      loss by reason of such   mechanics'   liens and Borrower has complied in all

      respects with the requirements of Section 6.18; and

 

            (4) such other documents specified in the Project Commitment.

 

The   foregoing   submissions   must reflect the cost of all   Development   Work for

which   payment is to be made.   The Draw Request   Certification   must specify the

portion of such costs which will be paid out of the   requested   disbursement   of

Loan proceeds, and, if any portion of such costs are to be paid by the Borrower,

      the Development Work related to such Projects; provided, however, that the

      Lender will be obligated   to make a   disbursement   notwithstanding   such a

      deficiency   in the event that (i) the Budget   for the   acquisition   of the

      Land and the Development Work of the applicable   Project and the amount of

      the Loan available for such   acquisition of the Land and such   Development

      Work have been increased by an amount at least equal to such deficiency in

      provides to the Lender   evidence   that it has paid from its own funds,   in

      addition to any Borrower funds which the Budget for such Project requires,

      an amount at least equal to the amount of such deficiency.

Section 3.6. The Lender May Make Disbursement Notwithstanding Noncompliance

 

      Notwithstanding   the failure of any   condition   precedent   to the Lender's

obligation   to make   any   disbursement   hereunder,   the   Lender   may   make   such

disbursement if the Lender, in its sole discretion, determines the making of the

same to be advisable. The making of any disbursement, either before or after the

satisfaction of all conditions precedent with respect to the Lender's obligation

to make the same,   will not be deemed to constitute an approval or acceptance by

the Lender of the   Development   Work   theretofore   completed or a waiver of such

condition with respect to a subsequent disbursement.

 

ARTICLE 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
