If Tenant exercises the Option within the first five (5) years of the Term, then Landlord and Tenant agree a prorated portion of the Recreational Facility Fee shall be paid by Tenant to the Owner Associations unless Tenant continues to provide access to the Leased Premises to Club Members in a manner substantially similar as under the Use Agreement for a period from the closing of the Option through the date which coincides with the last day of the fifth (5th) year of the Lease Term had the Option not been exercised. The amount to be paid by Tenant to the Owner Associations shall be the total Recreational Facilities Fee reduced by Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) for every year during the first five (5) years of the Term of the Use Agreement prior to termination, prorated for any partial year. This Section 28 shall survive termination of the Lease and closing of the Option. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the foregoing and the terms of the Use Agreement, the terms of the Use Agreement shall govern and control.
29. Ambiguities . Landlord and Tenant and their respective counsel has participated in the drafting of this Lease and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be considered the “drafter” for the purpose of any statute, case, or rule of construction that might cause any provision to be construed against the drafter of this Lease.

(b) If the Loan is accelerated for any reason (other than pursuant to or in connection with a Change in Control) prior to the Revolving Credit Period Expiration Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to all other amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents, as liquidated damages, not as a penalty, an amount equal to three percent (3%) multiplied by the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, no termination of financing under this Agreement shall affect Agent’s rights or any of the Obligations existing as of the Termination Date, and the provisions of the Loan Documents shall continue to be fully operative until the Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) have been fully performed and indefeasibly paid in cash in full. The liens granted to Agent under the Loan Documents and the financing statements filed pursuant thereto and the rights and powers of Lender thereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the fact that Borrower’s borrowings hereunder may from time to time be in a zero or credit position until (a) all of the Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) have been fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash, and (b) financing under this Agreement has been terminated, as provided herein.
2.7 Mandatory Prepayments
In addition to and without limiting any provision of any Loan Document:
(a) If a Change of Control occurs that has not been consented to in writing by Agent prior to the consummation thereof, on or prior to the first Business Day following the date of such Change of Control, Borrower shall prepay the Loan and all other Obligations (other than, indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) in full in cash together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment and all other amounts owing to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents.
34 |
(b) If Borrower, in any transaction or series of related transactions, (i) sells any Pledged Receivable or other Collateral notwithstanding that such disposition is prohibited in this Agreement, (ii) receives any property damage insurance award or any other insurance proceeds of any kind in connection with any Unit within which a Vacation Ownership Interest is situated and related to a Pledged Receivable and does not apply such funds to repair or replace the damaged Unit or (iii) receives any insurance award with respect to a Vacation Ownership Interest related to any Pledged Receivable, then it shall, subject to, in the case of the foregoing clauses (b)(ii) and (b)(iii), the terms of the Club Trust Agreement and any applicable Declaration, deposit 100% (or such lesser amount as is required to indefeasibly pay in cash in full the Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) ) of the cash proceeds thereof (net of reasonable transaction costs and expenses and taxes) to the Lockbox Account.
2.8 Payments by Agent; Protective Advances
Notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document, Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, shall have the right, but not any obligation, at any time that Borrower fails to do so, and from time to time, without prior notice, to: (i) obtain insurance (at the Borrower’s expense) covering any of the Collateral to the extent not obtained as required by Borrower under any Loan Document; (ii) discharge (at the Borrower’s expense) taxes or Liens affecting any of the Collateral that have not been paid in violation of any Loan Document or that jeopardize the Agent’s Lien priority in the Collateral, or, after the occurrence and continuance of a Potential Default or an Event of Default, any underlying collateral securing any Pledged Receivable; or (iii) make any other payment (at the Borrower’s expense) for the administration, servicing, maintenance, preservation or protection of the Collateral, or, after the occurrence and continuance of a Potential Default or an or Event of Default, any underlying collateral securing any Pledged Receivable (each such advance or payment set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), a “ Protective Advance ”). Agent shall be reimbursed for all Protective Advances pursuant to Section 2.4 and any Protective Advances shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate from the date the Protective Advance is paid by Agent until it is repaid. No Protective Advance by Agent shall be construed as a waiver by Agent, or any Lender of any Potential Default, Event of Default or any of the rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender. If Borrower fails to make a required payment that is the subject of a Protective Advance then Borrower irrevocably authorizes disbursement of any such funds to Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, by way of direct payment of the relevant amount, interest or Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4 without necessity of any demand in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8 .
2.9 Grant of Security Interest; Collateral

(ii) All proceeds, property, property rights, privileges and benefits arising out of, from the enforcement of, or in connection with, all present and future Pledged Receivables and all Timeshare Agreements, Timeshare Mortgages, and other Consumer Documents related thereto, including without limitation, to the extent applicable, all property returned by or reclaimed or repossessed from purchasers thereunder, all rights of foreclosure, termination, dispossession, repossession, all documents, instruments, contracts, liens and security instruments and guaranties relating to such Pledged Receivables, Timeshare Mortgages, and other Consumer Documents, all collateral and other security securing the obligations of any Person under or relating to such Pledged Receivables, Timeshare Mortgages, and other Consumer Documents, including, without limitation, all Owner Beneficiary Rights under the Club Trust Agreement in respect of such Pledged Receivables and all of the Borrower’s rights or interest in all other property (personal or other), if any, the sale of which gave rise to such Pledged Receivables, all rights and remedies of whatever kind or nature Borrower may hold or acquire for the purpose of securing or enforcing such Pledged Receivables, Timeshare Mortgages, and other Consumer Documents, and all general intangibles relating to or arising out of such Pledged Receivables, Timeshare Mortgages, and other Consumer Documents.

(vi) the Lockbox Account and all money, investment property, instruments and other property related to Pledged Receivables and credited to, carried in or deposited in the Lockbox Account.
(vii) Any and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(viii) Any and all other property now or hereafter serving as security for the Obligations.
All liens and security interests granted hereunder by Borrower to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, shall be first priority liens and security interests subject to Permitted Liens. Borrower, Agent and Lenders hereby agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Codes of the State of California and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Accordingly, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Agent and Lenders hereunder, Agent and each Lender shall have all the rights of a secured party under the California and Massachusetts Uniform Commercial Codes.
The property described in this Section 2.9(a) is collectively referred to herein as the “ Collateral ”. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment and performance of the Obligations by the Borrower is secured by the Collateral, regardless of whether such Obligations have been deemed to relate to Tranche A or Tranche B.
(b) Borrower has full right and power to grant to Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Lenders, a perfected, first priority security interest and Lien on the Pledged Receivables and a perfected Lien and security interest in all other Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, subject to the following sentence. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and upon the filing of the necessary financing statements, without any further action, Agent will have a good, valid and first priority (other than with respect to any Collateral, property or assets covered by Permitted Liens) perfected Lien and security interest in each Pledged Receivable and a perfected Lien and security interest in all other Collateral, subject to no transfer or other restrictions or Liens of any kind in favor of any other Person. As of the applicable Transfer Date, no financing statement relating to any of the Pledged Receivables is on file in any public office except those on behalf of Agent and those related to the Permitted Liens. As of the Closing Date, Borrower is not party to any agreement, document or instrument that conflicts with this Section 2.9 .
(c) The security interests and Liens hereby granted in the Collateral are given in renewal, confirmation, extension and modification, but not in extinguishment of the security interests and Liens previously granted in the Collateral pursuant to the Original Loan Agreement; such prior security interests and Liens are not extinguished hereby; and the making, perfection and priority of such prior security interests and Liens shall continue in full force and effect.
37 |
2.10 Collateral Administration
(a) All Collateral (except for the Lockbox Account and Collateral in the possession of Custodian) will at all times be kept by Borrower at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.15 hereto, and shall not, without thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice to Agent, be moved therefrom other than to another such location, and in any case shall not be moved outside the continental United States. To the extent not already delivered, Borrower hereby agrees to deliver to the Custodian the Custodian Deliverables related to each Pledged Receivable to be pledged in connection with the Initial Advance on or prior to the Closing Date or within five (5) Business Days prior to any Transfer Date in connection with any subsequent Advance, as applicable. All Pledged Receivables shall, regardless of their location, be deemed to be under Agent’s dominion and control (with files so labeled) and deemed to be in Agent’s possession. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.18 hereof, any of Agent’s officers, employees, representatives or agents shall have the right upon reasonable notice, at any time during normal business hours, in the name of Agent or any designee of Agent or Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to the Collateral.
(b) As and when determined by Agent in its sole discretion, Agent will perform the searches described in clauses (i) and (ii) below against Borrower: (i) UCC searches with the Secretary of State and local filing offices of each jurisdiction where Borrower is organized and/or maintains their executive offices, a place of business or assets; and (ii) judgment, federal tax lien and corporate and partnership tax lien searches, in each jurisdiction searched under clause (i) above.

(d) If not delivered in connection with an Advance, except in connection with Aruba Receivables, within ninety (90) days of the date of any Advance, Borrower shall deliver to Custodian a mortgagee final original lender’s title insurance policy (which may consist of one master policy referencing one or more Timeshare Mortgages) showing no exceptions to coverage (other than Permitted Liens) consistent with the title insurance commitment delivered to Custodian in connection with such Pledged Receivable prior to such Advance, which title insurance policy must insure that the applicable Timeshare Mortgage creates, subject to Permitted Liens, a first priority lien in and to the financed Vacation Ownership Interest insuring Borrower and its successors and/or assigns; and
(e) Borrower shall, or shall cause Servicer to, keep accurate and complete records of the Collateral and all payments and collections thereon and shall submit such records to Agent on such periodic basis as required pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.

2.11 Power of Attorney

In addition, if Borrower breaches its obligation hereunder to direct payments of Pledged Receivables or the proceeds of any other Collateral to the Lockbox Account, Agent, as the irrevocably made, constituted and appointed true and lawful attorney for Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, may, by the signature or other act of any of Agent’s officers or authorized signatories (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay proceeds of Pledged Receivables or any other Collateral to the Lockbox Account or another account designated in writing by Agent.

(a) Each Obligor with a Pledged Receivable shall be directed by Borrower or Servicer, in writing, to make all payments on account of such Pledged Receivable, as applicable, (i) by automatic debit to such Obligor’s bank account, to be initiated by Servicer and to be paid to Lockbox Bank; (ii) by check payable to the order of Borrower pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement and to mail such checks to the Lockbox Bank at the address specified in the Lockbox Agreement; or (iii) by credit card payment for processing through Borrower’s credit card deposit account with such payment to be deposited through the Lockbox Bank into Agent’s deposit account.

Agent shall have the right, at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to send an original or a copy of such Notice to Purchasers to each Obligor with a Pledged Receivable.

2.14 Permitted Contests
Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents or otherwise to the contrary, after prior written notice to Agent, Borrower at its expense may contest, by appropriate legal or other proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity of any tax, charge, assessment, statute, regulation, or any monetary lien on or in respect of the Collateral, so long as: (i) in the case of an unpaid tax, charge, assessment or lien, such proceedings suspend the collection thereof from Borrower and the Collateral, and shall not interfere with the payment of any monies due under the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; (ii) none of the Collateral is, in the judgment of Agent, in any imminent danger of being sold, forfeited or lost; (iii) in the case of a statute or regulation, neither Borrower nor Agent is in any danger of any civil or criminal liability for failure to comply therewith; and (iv) Borrower has furnished such security, if any, as may be required in the proceedings.
40 |
2.15 Release of Liens
(a) Agent shall release its lien on any Pledged Receivables and the related Collateral that no longer constitutes an Eligible Receivable and/or is otherwise used to calculate Borrower’s compliance with Section 2.5 hereof so long as (i) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) Borrower will remain in compliance of Section 2.5 hereof following such release or Borrower shall have paid such amounts to Agent as may be required so that Borrower is in compliance with Section 2.5 hereof following such release.
(b) Borrower shall give written notification to Agent and Custodian, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G , in the event the obligation of an Obligor under a Pledged Receivable has been (i) satisfied in full by such Obligor and all amounts paid thereunder are actually deposited into the Lockbox Account or (ii) cancelled due to an upgrade of the related Vacation Ownership Interest, then within thirty-one (31) days after the date of the occurrence of such upgrade, Borrower will at its sole option either (x) make to Agent a principal payment in an amount necessary so that Borrower remains in compliance with Section 2.5 hereof following such release of such Pledged Receivable(s), (y) deliver to Custodian on behalf of Agent, one or more Receivables having an aggregate unpaid principal balance not less that the unpaid principal balance of the Pledged Receivable that was upgraded or (z) a combination of (x) and (y). Upon receipt of such notice and confirmation by Agent that it has received in good funds all such amounts owing on such Pledged Receivable or replacement Receivables, as the case may be, Agent shall promptly execute any documents reasonably necessary or required by law to release the Lien of Agent and Lenders with respect to the related Collateral under this Agreement. Agent shall return or cause to be returned all Collateral, including, without limitation, all Custodian Deliverables (original or otherwise) related thereto, to Borrower.
(c) Subject to Section 12.3 , promptly following full performance and satisfaction and indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations and the Inventory Loan Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents or documentation evidencing or securing the Inventory Loan Obligations that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) and the termination of this Agreement, the Liens created hereby shall terminate and Agent shall execute and deliver such documents, at Borrower’s expense, as are necessary to release Agent’s Liens in the Collateral and shall return all Collateral or cause to be returned all Collateral, including, without limitation, all Custodian Deliverables (original or otherwise) related thereto, to Borrower; provided , however , that the parties agree that, notwithstanding any such termination or release or the execution, delivery or filing of any such documents or the return of any Collateral, if and to the extent that any such payment made or received with respect to the Obligations or Inventory Loan Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, defeased or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other Person under any Debtor Relief Law, common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations or Inventory Loan Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and shall continue as if such payment had not been received by Agent and the Liens created hereby shall be revived automatically without any action on the part of any party hereto and shall continue as if such payment had not been received by Agent. Agent shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty with respect to any Collateral so delivered except that such Collateral is free and clear, on the date of such delivery, of any and all Liens arising from such Person’s own acts.
41 |
2.16 Replacement of Servicing Agents Agent shall have the right at such times as are provided in the applicable agreement, upon written notice to Borrower, (i) to transfer the servicing of the Pledged Receivables to the Backup Servicer or to an alternate Qualified Servicing Agent in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement and/or (ii) to transfer the backup servicing of the Pledged Receivables to an alternate qualified Backup Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Backup Servicing Agreement. The determination of a successor to the then existing Backup Servicer and the existing Servicer shall be made by the mutual agreement of the Agent and the Borrower unless there then exists an Event of Default or, in connection with the appointment of a successor to Borrower or one of its Affiliates as the Servicer, unless there has occurred a Termination Event (as defined in the Servicing Agreement). For purposes of this Section 2.16 , a “ Qualified Servicing Agent ” shall mean a nationally recognized and licensed servicer of timeshare loan receivables that (a) is actively servicing a portfolio of timeshare loans with an aggregate principal balance of not less than $200,000,000, (b) has servicing and collection capabilities for all categories of delinquent and defaulted timeshare loans (including through foreclosure) and (c) is not Agent or any Lender or an Affiliate of Agent or any Lender.
2.17 Cross-Collateralization and Default The Collateral primarily secures the Obligations but shall also provide additional security for all Inventory Loan Obligations (all such other obligations and Indebtedness, collectively, the “ Other Indebtedness ”). All Liens, pledges, assignments, mortgages, security interests, and other collateral granted to secure any Other Indebtedness shall also secure the Obligations; provided , however , that any Lien, pledge, assignment, mortgage, security interest or other collateral granted to secure any Other Indebtedness primarily secures such Other Indebtedness and shall provide additional collateral security for the Loan and other Obligations. Borrower shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) deliver financing statements and other documents, instruments and agreements as may be reasonably required by Agent, any Lender or any holder of Other Indebtedness to further evidence and perfect the Liens and cross-collateralization in favor of Agent, Lenders and such holder of Other Indebtedness provided for in this Agreement and/or the documentation evidencing or securing such Other Indebtedness; provided , however , that Borrower acknowledges that no further actions or documents shall be necessary for such purpose. In addition, this Agreement and any documentation evidencing and/or securing any Other Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Inventory Loan Documentation) shall be cross-defaulted such that any event of default with respect to such Other Indebtedness shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, and vice versa. Nothing set forth in this Section 2.17 shall be interpreted to limit Agent’s obligations to release its Lien on any Pledged Receivables and the related Collateral in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.15(a) and (b) hereof.
42 |
III. FEES AND OTHER CHARGES
3.1 Computation of Rates; Lawful Limits
All rates hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed in each calculation period, as applicable. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, shall the interest and other charges paid or agreed to be paid to Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Lenders, for the use, forbearance or detention of money hereunder exceed the Maximum Rate which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. If, due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall exceed any such limit, then the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, and, if Agent or Lenders shall have received interest or any other charges of any kind which might be deemed to be interest in excess of the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees and charges hereunder, then to unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower hereunder, and if the then remaining excess interest is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Agent and Lenders shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.1 shall control to the extent any other provision of any Loan Document is inconsistent herewith.
3.2 Default Rate of Interest
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Applicable Rate of interest then in effect at such time with respect to the Obligations shall be increased by four percent (4.0%) per annum (subject to the Maximum Rate) (the “ Default Rate ”). Interest at the Default Rate shall accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default until such Event of Default is waived or ceases to continue, and shall be payable upon demand.
3.3 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy
(a) If any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, as applicable, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company, as applicable, with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender’s or such Lender’s holding company, as applicable, for any such reduction suffered.
43 |
(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 3.3(a) and (b) , shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.3 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 90 days prior to the date such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
(e) In the alternative to paying the amounts required pursuant to this Section 3.3 , Borrower shall have the option to prepay the Loan and all other outstanding Obligations in full and terminate this Agreement, within ninety (90) days of the date Borrower receives the certificate set forth in Section 3.3(c) , without paying the liquidated damages provided in Section 2.6(a) of this Agreement.
3.4 Commitment Fee
(a) On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “ Commitment Fee ” ) equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000), which shall be deemed earned on the Closing Date and payable to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Agent participates the Loan to a Participant or any Lender assigns any of its rights and obligations hereunder to a Transferee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such participation or assignment has the effect of resulting in less than $40,000,000 being committed to Borrower due to a default by such Participant or Transferee, then a portion of the Commitment Fee shall be refunded to Borrower in a pro rata amount, taking into account such reduction and the number of months elapsed in the Revolving Credit Period.
3.5 Unused Line Fee
Due on the first Business Day of each calendar month following the Closing Date during (and immediately following the termination of, as provided herein) the Revolving Credit Period, Borrower agrees to pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, with respect to the preceding calendar month (or the portion thereof, if the expiration of the Revolving Credit Period does not occur on the first day of a calendar month), a fee payable in an amount (calculated as of the last day of the preceding calendar month) equal to one-twelfth (1/12 th ) of three quarters of one percent (0.75%) multiplied by the positive difference between (A) the Facility Cap and (B) the greater of (x) the Average Daily Balance of the Loan during such prior calendar month and (y)(1) as it relates to any date of determination prior to September 21, 2013, $22,500,000; or (2) as it relates to any date of determination on or after September 21, 2013, $19,000,000. The Unused Line Fee shall be waived upon the termination of the Revolving Credit Period.
44 |

Each Transferee shall have all of the rights, obligations and benefits with respect to the Obligations, Notes, Collateral and/or Loan Documents held by it as fully as if the original holder thereof; provided , that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay under this Agreement to any Transferee or Participant any sum in excess of the sum which it would have been obligated to pay to Agent had such assignment or participation not been effected. Agent may disclose to any Transferee or Participant all information, reports, financial statements, certificates and documents obtained under any provision of any Loan Document; provided , that Transferees and Participants shall be subject to the terms and conditions of a confidentiality agreement in form and content mutually acceptable to Borrower and Agent, which shall be entered into prior to any such disclosure to any Transferee or Participant.
(j) Agent or any Lender may assign or pledge all or any portion of the Loans or Notes held by it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation, any assignment or pledge pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, provided , that any payment in respect of such assigned Loans or Notes made by Borrower to or for the account of the assigning or pledging Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned Loans or Notes to the extent of such payment. No such assignment or pledge shall release the Agent or assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.
(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be no limitation or restriction (including any restrictions contained in this Section 12.2 ) whatsoever, on any Lender’s ability to assign, pledge or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any Note or other Obligation following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
12.3 Application of Payments
To the extent that any payment made or received with respect to the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, defeased or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other Person under any Debtor Relief Law, common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and shall continue as if such payment had not been received by Agent and the Liens created hereby shall be revived automatically without any action on the part of any party hereto and shall continue as if such payment had not been received by Agent.

12.4 Indemnity
Borrower shall indemnify Agent, each Lender, each Participant, and their respective Affiliates and managers, members, officers, employees, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, accountants and attorneys (collectively, the “ Indemnified Persons ”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and in-house documentation and diligence fees and legal expenses) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect to or arising out of, or in any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or any matter related to this Agreement, the Loan, any other Loan Document or any act of or omission by Borrower or any of its officers, directors, agents, including, without limitation (i) any willful misrepresentation with respect to Borrower or the Collateral, (ii) any acts of fraud by Borrower related to the Loan or made in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document, (iii) any theft of any Collateral by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, (iv) any misappropriation of funds or use of the proceeds of the Loan that is not in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) any waste, transfer, sale, encumbrance or other disposal of the Collateral not permitted by the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (vi) any environmental liability, except to the extent any of the foregoing arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person or (vii) the failure of any Consumer Document to comply with any Applicable Law. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house counsel for any purpose for which Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify, Borrower expressly agrees that their indemnification obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the customary reasonable in-house counsel fees for the work performed. Agent agrees to give Borrower reasonable notice of any event of which Agent becomes aware for which indemnification may be required under this Section 12.4 , and Agent may elect (but is not obligated) to direct the defense thereof; provided , that the selection of counsel shall be subject to Borrower’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and Borrower shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any matter for which indemnification may be required under this Section 12.4 and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such matter. Any Indemnified Person may, in its reasonable discretion, take such actions as it deems necessary and appropriate to investigate, defend or settle any event or take other remedial or corrective actions with respect thereto as may be necessary for the protection of such Indemnified Person or the Collateral, subject to Borrower’s prior approval of any settlement, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any insurer agrees to undertake the defense of an event (an “ Insured Event ”), Agent agrees not to exercise its right to select counsel to defend the event if that would cause Borrower’s insurer to deny coverage; provided , however , that Lender reserves the right to retain counsel to represent any Indemnified Person with respect to an Insured Event at its sole cost and expense. To the extent that Agent obtains recovery from a third party other than an Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that Borrower has paid to Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4 , then Agent shall promptly pay to Borrower the amount of such recovery.

XIII. AGENT PROVISIONS; SETTLEMENT
13.1 Agent
(a) Appointment . Each Lender hereby designates and appoints CapitalSource as the administrative agent, payment agent and collateral agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes CapitalSource, as Agent for such Lender, to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as such on the conditions contained in this Article XIII . The provisions of this Article XIII are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and Borrower shall have no rights as third-party beneficiaries of any of the provisions of this Article XIII other than Section 13.1(g) and the second sentence of Section 13.1(h)(iii) . Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents, employees or sub-agents.
(b) Nature of Duties . In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent is acting solely on behalf of Lenders, and its duties are administrative in nature, and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed, any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Lenders, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, or Borrower. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the extension of credit hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for information, notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent hereunder or given to Agent for the account of or with copies for Lenders, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the Original Closing Date or at any time or times thereafter. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Agent shall send prior written notice thereof to each Lender. Agent shall promptly notify each Lender in writing any time that the applicable percentage of Lenders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.
88 |
(c) Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees, attorneys or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action lawfully taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent Agent from being liable to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction on a final and nonappealable basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall be obligated on the terms set forth herein for performance of its express duties and obligations hereunder. Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from the other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree promptly to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In performing its functions and duties hereunder, Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of Borrower. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions, or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Potential Default or Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the applicable percentage of Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the applicable percentage of Lenders and, notwithstanding the instructions of Lenders, Agent shall have no obligation to take any action if it, in good faith, believes that such action exposes Agent or any of its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees, attorneys or agents to any personal liability unless Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from Lenders with respect to such action.
89 |
(d) Reliance . Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, telecopy or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.
(e) Indemnification . Each Lender, severally and not (i) jointly or (ii) jointly and severally, agrees to reimburse and indemnify and hold harmless Agent and its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees, attorneys and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Share in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this subsection of the total outstanding Obligations (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Share immediately prior to such date of the total outstanding Obligations), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent or any of its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees, attorneys or agents in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided , however , that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements to the extent resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction on a final and non-appealable basis. The obligations of Lenders under this Article XIII shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(f) Agent in its Individual Capacity . With respect to the Loans made by it, if any, CapitalSource and its successors as the Agent shall have, and may exercise, the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents, and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities, as and to the extent set forth in the Loan Documents, as any other Lender. The terms “Lenders” or “Requisite Lenders” or any similar terms shall include Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender. Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of lending, banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with, Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower as if it were not acting as Agent pursuant hereto.
(g) Successor Agent .
(i) Resignation . Agent may resign from the performance of all or part of its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice to Borrower and Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment pursuant to clause (ii) below or as otherwise provided below.
90 |
(ii) Appointment of Successor . Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to clause (g)(i) of this Section 13.1 , Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent with the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned (or required if any Event of Default exists). If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) calendar day period referenced in clause (g)(i) above, the retiring Agent, upon notice to Borrower, may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent with the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned (or required if any Event of Default exists), who shall serve as Agent until such time as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing within said thirty (30) calendar day period, the resignation of Agent shall not become effective until Agent and Borrower have mutually agreed upon a successor Agent.
(iii) Successor Agent . Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and, upon the earlier of such acceptance or the effective date of the retiring Agent’s resignation, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, provided that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such retiring Agent shall continue after and survive such resignation and succession. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent under the Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article XIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under the Loan Documents.
(h) Collateral Matters .
(i) Collateral . Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater number of Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, and the exercise by Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such greater number of Lenders) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of Lenders and Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Loan Documents in connection with the Collateral; (ii) execute and deliver each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by Borrower; (iii) act as collateral agent for Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein; (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral; and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all right and remedies given to such Agent and Lenders with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, Applicable Law or otherwise.
91 |
(ii) Release of Collateral . Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, upon any Collateral covered by the Loan Documents (A) upon termination of this Agreement and the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Obligations and Other Indebtedness (including, without limitation the Inventory Loan Obligations) (other than contingent indemnification Obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted); (B) constituting Collateral being sold or disposed of if Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of the Loan Documents (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (C) constituting Collateral leased to Borrower under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by Borrower to be, renewed or extended.
(iii) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases . Without in any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in Section 13.1(h)(i) and (ii) ), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Borrower, the authority to release any property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents conferred upon Agent under Section 13.1(h)(ii) . So long as no Event of Default exists, upon, as applicable, receipt by Agent of confirmation from the requisite percentage of Lenders of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral covered by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by Borrower, Agent shall (and hereby is irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, herein or pursuant hereto upon such Collateral; provided , however , that (A) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty (other than that such Collateral is free and clear, on the date of such delivery, of any and all Liens arising from such Person’s own acts), and (B) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents.
(iv) Absence of Duty . Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the Collateral covered by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, enforced or maintained or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Section 13.1(h) or in any of the Loan Documents; it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral covered by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in Collateral covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents as one of Lenders and Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders; provided , that Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account.
92 |
(i) Agency for Perfection . Each Lender hereby appoints Agent as agent for the purpose of perfecting Lenders’ security interest in Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall hold such Collateral for purposes of perfecting a security interest therein for the benefit of Lenders, notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s written request therefor, deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise act in respect thereof in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
(j) Exercise of Remedies . Except as set forth in Section 13.3 , each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to realize upon any Collateral security for the Loans or other Obligations; it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.
13.2 Lender Consent
(a) In the event Agent requests the consent of a Lender and does not receive a written denial thereof within five (5) Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of such request, then such Lender will be deemed to have given such consent so long as such request contained a notice stating that such failure to respond within five (5) Business Days would be deemed to be a consent by such Lender.
(b) In the event Agent requests the consent of a Lender in a situation where such Lender’s consent would be required and such consent is denied, then Agent may, at its option, require such Lender to assign its interest in the Loans to Agent for a price equal to the then outstanding principal amount thereof due such Lender plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees due such Lender, which principal, interest and fees will be paid to the Lender when collected from Borrower. In the event that Agent elects to require any Lender to assign its interest to Agent pursuant to this Section 13.2 Agent will so notify such Lender in writing within forty-five (45) days following such Lender's denial, and such Lender will assign its interest to Agent no later than five (5) calendar days following receipt of such notice.
93 |
13.3 Set-off
In addition to any rights and remedies now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, with the prior written consent of Agent and without notice to Borrower or any other Person other than Agent (such notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by such Lender at any of its offices for the account of Borrower (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower ), and (b) other Collateral at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower, against and on account of any of the Obligations which are not paid when due; provided , that no Lender or any such holder shall exercise any such right without prior written notice to Agent.
13.4 Disbursement of Funds
Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to Borrower for any Advance. Each Lender shall reimburse Agent on demand for its Pro Rata Share of all funds disbursed on its behalf by Agent, or if Agent so requests, each Lender shall remit to Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Advance before Agent disburses such Advance to or on account of Borrower. If Agent so elects to require that funds be made available prior to disbursement to Borrower, Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, telex or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the funding date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Agent’s account not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time).
Nothing in this Section 13.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 13.5 , shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
13.5 Settlements; Payments; and Information
(a) Advances; Payments; Interest and Fee Payments .
(i) The amount of the outstanding Loan may fluctuate from day to day through Agent’s disbursement of funds to or on account of, and receipt of funds from, Borrower. In order to minimize the frequency of transfers of funds between Agent and each Lender, notwithstanding terms to the contrary set forth in Section 13.4 , Advances and repayments thereof may be settled according to the procedures described in Sections 13.5(a)(ii) and 13.5(a)(iii) . Notwithstanding these procedures, each Lender’s obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Advances made by Agent to or on account of Borrower will commence on the date such Advances are made by Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate a Lender to make an Advance at any time any Potential Default or Event of Default exists. All such payments will be made by such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
94 |
(ii) Once each week, or more frequently (including daily), if Agent so elects (each such day being a “ Settlement Date ”), Agent will advise each Lender by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day by telephone, telex or telecopy of the amount of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Advances. In the event payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such Lender’s share of the Advances to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Advances, the party from which such payment is due will pay the other party, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the other’s account not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following the Settlement Date.
(iii) On the first Business Day of each month (“ Interest Settlement Date ”), Agent will advise each Lender by telephone or facsimile of the amount of interest and fees charged to and collected from Borrower for the preceding month in respect of the Loans. Provided that such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it under this Agreement and provided that Lender has not received its Pro Rata Share of interest and fees directly from Borrower, Agent will pay to such Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender on Schedule A of this Agreement as amended by such Lender from time to time after the date hereof pursuant to the notice provisions contained herein or in the applicable Lender Addition Agreement) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day following the Interest Settlement Date, such Lender’s share of such interest and fees.
(b) Availability of Lenders’ Pro Rata Share .
(i) Unless Agent has been notified by a Lender prior to any proposed funding date of such Lender’s intention not to fund its Pro Rata Share of an Advance, Agent may assume that such Lender will make such amount available to Agent on the proposed funding date or the Business Day following the next Settlement Date, as applicable; provided , however , nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate a Lender to make an Advance at any time any Potential Default or Event of Default exists. If such amount is not, in fact, made available to Agent by such Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
(ii) Nothing contained in this Section 13.5(b) will be deemed to relieve a Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments or to prejudice any rights Agent or Borrower may have against such Lender as a result of any default by such Lender under this Agreement.
(c) Return of Payments .
(i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
95 |
(ii) If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
13.6 Dissemination of Information
Upon request by a Lender, Agent will distribute promptly to such Lender, unless previously provided by Borrower to such Lender, copies of all notices, schedules, reports, projections, financial statements, agreements and other material and information, including, without limitation, financial and reporting information received from Borrower or generated by a third party (and excluding only internal information generated by CapitalSource for its own use as a Lender or as Agent and any attorney-client privileged communications or work product), as provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as received by Agent. Agent shall not be liable to any of the Lenders for any failure to comply with its obligations under this Section 13.6 , except to the extent that such failure is attributed to Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct and results in demonstrable damages to such Lender as determined, in each case, by a court of competent jurisdiction on a final and non-appealable basis.
13.7 Non-Funding Lender.
The failure of any Lender to make any Advance (the “ Non-Funding Lender ”) on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender, an “ Other Lender ”) of its obligations to make such Advance, but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document. At Borrower’s request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the rights of that Non-Funding Lender to make Advances hereunder for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Lender Addition Agreement.
96 |
13.8 Taxes
(a) Subject to Section 13.8(g) , any and all payments by or on account of any obligations of Borrower to each Lender or Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (including penalties, interest and additions to tax), imposed by any Governmental Authority in the United States, excluding, in the case of each Lender and Agent, (i) such taxes (including income taxes or franchise taxes) as are imposed on or measured by the net income, overall receipts or total capital of such Lender or Agent, respectively, by the jurisdiction in which such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof, and (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States of America (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “ Taxes ”).
(b) In addition, Borrower shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in the United States any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “ Other Taxes” ).
(c) Subject to Section 13.8(g) , Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and Agent for the full amount of any and all Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction in the United States on amounts payable under this Section 13.8 ) paid or payable by such Lender or Agent and any liability (other than any penalties, interest, additions, and expenses that accrue both after the 180th day after the receipt by Agent or such Lender of written notice of the assertion of such Taxes or Other Taxes and before the date that Agent or such Lender provides Borrower with a certificate relating thereto pursuant to Section 13.8(l) ) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payments under this indemnification shall be made within ten (10) days from the date any Lender or Agent makes written demand therefor.
(d) If Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or Agent, then, subject to Section 13.8(g) :
(i) the sum payable shall be increased to the extent necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 13.8 ), such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;
(ii) Borrower shall make such deductions; and
(iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(e) Within ten (10) days after the date of any payment by Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall furnish to Agent (and the applicable Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Agent (and the applicable Lender).
97 |
(f) Each Lender and Agent that is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States (or any jurisdiction thereof), or any estate or trust that is subject to federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income or is otherwise a "foreign person" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(c) (a “ Non-U.S. Lender” ) shall deliver to Borrower and Agent (or, in the case of an assignment that is not disclosed to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2 , solely to the assigning Lender and Agent and Agent shall deliver to Borrower) two (2) copies of each applicable U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8IMY or Form W-8ECI, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax on all payments by Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. In addition to properly completing and duly executing Forms W-8BEN or W-8IMY (or any subsequent versions thereof or successor thereto), if such Non-U.S. Lender is claiming an exemption from withholding of United States Federal income tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, such Lender hereby represents and warrants that (A) it is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c) of the Code, (B) it is not subject to regulatory or other Applicable Law as a bank in any jurisdiction, (C) it has not been treated as a bank for purposes of any tax, securities law or other filing or submission made to any governmental securities law or other Applicable Law, (D) it is not a “10 percent shareholder” within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code of Borrower, (E) it is not a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (F) none of the interest arising from this Agreement constitutes contingent interest within the meaning of Section 871(h)(4) or Section 881(c)(4) of the Code and such Non-U.S. Lender agrees that it shall provide Agent, and Agent shall provide to Borrower (or, in the case of an assignment that is not disclosed to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2 , solely to the assigning Lender and Agent and Agent shall deliver to Borrower), with prompt notice at any time after becoming a Lender or Agent hereunder that it can no longer make the foregoing representations and warranties. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify Borrower (or, in the case of an assignment that is not disclosed to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2 , solely to the assigning Lender and Agent and Agent shall deliver to Borrower) at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certificate (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this subsection that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver. Each Lender who makes an assignment pursuant to Section 12.2 where the assignment and assumption agreement is not delivered to Borrower shall indemnify and agree to hold Agent, Borrower and the other Lenders harmless from and against any United States federal withholding tax, interest and penalties that would not have been imposed but for (i) the failure of the Transferee that received such assignment under Section 12.2 to comply with this Section 13.8(f) or (ii) the failure of such Lender to withhold and pay such tax at the proper rate in the event such Transferee does not comply with this Section 13.8(f) (or complies with Section 13.8(f) but delivers forms indicating it is entitled to a reduced rate of such tax). Upon Borrower’s reasonable request, any Lender or Agent that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Agent (i) a properly prepared and duly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying that such Person is entitled to receive any and all payments under this Agreement and each other Loan Document free and clear from withholding of United States federal income taxes and (ii) such other reasonable documentation as will enable Borrower and/or Agent to determine whether or not such Person is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to Section 12.2 shall, on or before the date of the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements required pursuant to this Section 13.8(f) and Section 13.8(h) , and shall make the representations and warranties set forth in clauses (A) – (F) above, provided that the obligations of such Participant, pursuant to this Section 13.8(f) and Section 13.8(h) , shall be determined as if such Participant were a Lender except that such Participant shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased.
98 |
(g) Borrower will not be required to pay any additional amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to Section 13.8(d) to any Lender or Agent or to indemnify any Lender or Agent pursuant to Section 13.8(c) to the extent that (i) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 13.1(f) for any reason; (ii) with respect to a Lender or Agent, the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United Stated Federal income tax existed on the date such Persons became a party to this Agreement or, with respect to payments to a lending office newly designated by a Lender (a “ New Lending Office ” ), the date such Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to the applicable Loan; (iii) the Internal Revenue Service has determined (which determination shall be final and non-appealable) that such Lender or Agent is treated as a “conduit entity” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision; provided, however , nothing contained in this clause (iii) shall preclude the payment of additional amounts or indemnity payments by Borrower to the person for whom the “conduit entity” is acting; (iv) such Lender is claiming an exemption from withholding of United States Federal income tax under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code but is unable at any time to make the representations and warranties set forth in clauses (A) – (F) of Section 13.8(f) ; or (v) with respect to any Non-U.S. Lender, such Lender has notified Borrower pursuant to Section 13.8(f) that a previously delivered exemption form or certificate is no longer valid.
(h) Each Non-U.S. Lender agrees to provide Borrower and Agent, upon the reasonable request of Borrower, such other forms or documents as may be reasonably required under applicable law in order to establish an exemption from or eligibility for a reduction in the rate or imposition of Taxes or Other Taxes.
(i) If Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender or Agent pursuant to this Section 13.8 , then such Lender or Agent shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by Borrower or to designate a Lending Office from a different jurisdiction (if such a Lending Office exists) so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payments by Borrower which may accrue in the future if such filing or changes in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or Agent, would not require such Lender to disclose information such Lender deems confidential and is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or Agent.
99 |
(j) If Agent or a Lender, in its reasonable judgment, receives a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 13.8 , it shall promptly pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 13.8 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) and any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund, provided , that Borrower, upon the written request of Agent or such Lender, shall repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay the applicable refund to such Governmental Authority.
(k) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Agent is required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes or any other taxes from or in respect of any sum payable to any Lender by Borrower or Agent, Agent shall not be required to make any gross-up payment to or in respect of such Lender, except to the extent that a corresponding gross-up payment is actually received by Agent from Borrower.
(l) Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Section 13.8 shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder.
(m) The agreements and obligations of Borrower in this Section 13.8 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.
13.9 Brokers; Payment of Commissions
Each party represents and warrants to the other that no consultant, advisor, broker, agent, finder or intermediary has acted on its behalf in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party agrees to pay the compensation, if any, due to any Person claiming any commission or finder’s fee or other compensation as a result of any actions by such Person for or on behalf of such party.
13.10 Patriot Act
Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow Agent and each Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. Borrower shall, promptly following a written request by Agent or any Lender, cooperate with such Lender or Agent in providing all reasonable documentation and other information that Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

In addition, except as otherwise provided herein, all obligations and liabilities and indebtedness created or existing under, pursuant to, or as a result of, the Original Loan Agreement shall continue in existence within the definition of “Obligations” under this Agreement, which obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of Borrower, by this Agreement, acknowledges, reaffirms and confirms.

Mr. Anthony M. Puleo
10021 NW 56 th Street
Coral Springs, FL 33076
Dear Tony:
This employment terms letter agreement (the “ Letter Agreement ”) confirms and sets forth key details of your continuing employment as our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and President, Treasury Services.
· | Base Salary . Your annual base salary is presently $344,793.00. This amount may be adjusted upward by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in connection with your annual performance review, but may not be adjusted downward except in connection with a program of similar adjustments affecting other senior executives of the company. Your base salary shall be payable periodically following our normal payroll practices. |
· | Incentive Compensation . You will be entitled to participate in an annual incentive compensation program by which you may be awarded up to 100% at target (and up to 150% at maximum) of your base salary, subject to your achieving a level of personal, professional and company-wide performance levels as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors no later than the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year immediately following the fiscal year to which the incentive compensation would apply. If such goals are achieved and incentive compensation is awarded, it will be paid in accordance with the executive compensation plan in effect for the fiscal year, subject to your continued employment in good standing at the time of payment. |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event your employment is terminated by us without “Cause” or by you with “Good Reason” (each of these terms is defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) after the last day of the earnings period for incentive compensation, then you will receive any earned incentive compensation, to be paid at the time the compensation is normally paid. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of your death or Disability (as defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) during a fiscal year, you or your estate shall be entitled to a pro rata portion of any earned incentive compensation based on the number of days actually worked during the fiscal year or based on the compensation plan in effect, as applicable. Any such pro rata incentive compensation shall be paid when such incentive compensation would normally be paid.
Page 2 of 7
· | Benefits . You will be eligible to participate in any retirement and health and welfare benefits applicable to other senior executives as a group. |
· | Severance . If your employment is terminated by us without “Cause” or by you with “Good Reason” (each of these terms is defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter), we shall pay you as severance an amount equal to 1.0 times (or 1.5 times if within 2 years of a Change In Control, as defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) your annual base salary plus 1.0 times (or 1.5 times if within 2 years of a Change In Control) the average of the total incentive compensation for each year paid to you in the two years preceding the date of your termination. This amount will be paid to you in equal installments following our normal payroll practices over the one year period (or 18-month period if the 1.5 times factor applies) following your termination. Subject to your timely election of and continued eligibility for COBRA continuation coverage, we will also pay your COBRA premiums for 12 months following your termination. Your receipt of these severance payments and benefits is conditioned on your signing and not revoking a general release of employment related claims in a form satisfactory to us within 60 days following your termination. Your receipt of these severance payments and benefits is also conditioned on your continued compliance with any restrictive covenants between you and the Company, including those referenced below. |
· | Restrictive Covenants . In consideration of your eligibility to receive the severance payments and benefits described in the preceding paragraph, your continued participation in executive incentive compensation programs and, if applicable, in the LTIP or LPS described below and other good and valuable consideration, you have agreed to be subject to the restrictive covenants and related agreements contained on the Restrictive Covenants Appendix to this letter. |
· | Participation in Bluegreen LTIP or LPS . If you presently participate in the Company’s 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended (“LTIP”), or the Company’s 2013 Leadership Profit Sharing Plan (“LPS”), this Letter Agreement does not alter in any way the terms, limitations or conditions of such participation. Nothing in this Letter Agreement is intended to or shall be construed to alter the terms of or your award agreement under the LTIP or LPS, or any applicable successor plan in which you may participate. In the event of a conflict between this Letter Agreement and any such long term incentive plan, the plan terms shall govern. |
Except as provided above in the section entitled “Severance,” your employment will continue to be “at will.” This means that you or we may terminate your employment at any time for any reason. In addition, any action on your part which would constitute “Cause” for termination shall also constitute action that will classify you as an employee not in good standing (in addition to any other circumstances that could result in that classification), in which case the Chief Executive Officer, or the Compensation Committee of the Board, may in its discretion adjust your duties, compensation, bonus participation and payments, LTIP or LPS participation and payments, or any combination thereof. Any such adjustment shall not constitute “Good Reason” if you choose to terminate your employment.
Page 3 of 7
Of course, all payments described in this Letter Agreement will be subject to all required tax withholding. This Letter Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflict of laws principles that would result in the laws of any other state being applied. Any litigation involving the terms of this Letter Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt the Appendices hereto) shall occur in the federal or state courts located in Palm Beach, Broward or Miami-Dade counties and the parties hereby submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts. Neither party shall assert in any such litigation that such courts are an inappropriate venue for any such litigation on the basis of such courts being an inconvenient forum or otherwise.
Finally, because this Letter Agreement (including its Appendices) is intended to consolidate the terms of your employment, it replaces all previous agreements that you may have entered into with the company, with the exception of the LTIP, which will remain in full force and effect.
Please signify your agreement to the terms of this Letter Agreement by signing and dating three copies and returning two of them to me and one to the Senior Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer.
Sincerely, | |

Mr. David L. Pontius

Winter Park, FL 32789
Dear Dave:
This employment terms letter agreement (the “ Letter Agreement ”) confirms and sets forth key details of your continuing employment as our Executive Vice President, Chief Strategy Officer, President, Bluegreen Services.
· | Base Salary . Your annual base salary is presently $515,000.00. This amount may be adjusted upward by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in connection with your annual performance review, but may not be adjusted downward except in connection with a program of similar adjustments affecting other senior executives of the company. Your base salary shall be payable periodically following our normal payroll practices. |
· | Incentive Compensation . You will be entitled to participate in an annual incentive compensation program by which you may be awarded up to 100% at target (and up to 162.5% at maximum) of your base salary, subject to your achieving personal, department, division and/or company-wide performance goals established and communicated to you by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer or their designee, generally no later than the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year to which the incentive compensation would apply. If such goals are achieved and incentive compensation is awarded, it will be paid in accordance with the executive compensation plan in effect for the fiscal year, subject to your continued employment in good standing at the time of payment. |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event your employment is terminated by us without “Cause” or by you with “Good Reason” (each of these terms is defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) after the last day of the earnings period for incentive compensation, then you will receive any earned incentive compensation, to be paid at the time the compensation is normally paid. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of your death or Disability (as defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) during a fiscal year, you or your estate shall be entitled to a pro rata portion of any earned incentive compensation based on the number of days actually worked during the fiscal year or based on the compensation plan in effect, as applicable. Any such pro rata incentive compensation shall be paid when such incentive compensation would normally be paid.
Page 2 of 7
· | Benefits . You will be eligible to participate in any retirement and health and welfare benefits applicable to other senior executives as a group. |
· | Severance . If your employment is terminated by us without “Cause” or by you with “Good Reason” (each of these terms is defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter), we shall pay you as severance an amount equal to 1.0 times (or 1.5 times if within 2 years of a Change In Control, as defined on the Definitions Appendix of this letter) your annual base salary plus 1.0 times (or 1.5 times if within 2 years of a Change In Control) the average of the total incentive compensation for each year paid to you in the two years preceding the date of your termination. This amount will be paid to you in equal installments following our normal payroll practices over the one year period (or 18-month period if the 1.5 times factor applies) following your termination. Subject to your timely election of and continued eligibility for COBRA continuation coverage, we will also pay your COBRA premiums for 12 months following your termination. Your receipt of these severance payments and benefits is conditioned on your signing and not revoking a general release of employment related claims in a form satisfactory to us within 60 days following your termination. Your receipt of these severance payments and benefits is also conditioned on your continued compliance with any restrictive covenants between you and the Company, including those referenced below. |
· | Restrictive Covenants . In consideration of your eligibility to receive the severance payments and benefits described in the preceding paragraph, your continued participation in executive incentive compensation programs and, if applicable, in the LTIP or LPS described below and other good and valuable consideration, you have agreed to be subject to the restrictive covenants and related agreements contained on the Restrictive Covenants Appendix to this letter. |
· | Participation in Bluegreen LTIP or LPS . If you presently participate in the Company’s 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended (“LTIP”), or the Company’s 2013 Leadership Profit Sharing Plan (“LPS”), this Letter Agreement does not alter in any way the terms, limitations or conditions of such participation. Nothing in this Letter Agreement is intended to or shall be construed to alter the terms of or your award agreement under the LTIP or LPS, or any applicable successor plan in which you may participate. In the event of a conflict between this Letter Agreement and any such long term incentive plan, the plan terms shall govern. |
Except as provided above in the section entitled “Severance,” your employment will continue to be “at will.” This means that you or we may terminate your employment at any time for any reason. In addition, any action on your part which would constitute “Cause” for termination shall also constitute action that will classify you as an employee not in good standing (in addition to any other circumstances that could result in that classification), in which case the Chief Executive Officer, or the Compensation Committee of the Board, may in its discretion adjust your duties, compensation, bonus participation and payments, LTIP or LPS participation and payments, or any combination thereof. Any such adjustment shall not constitute “Good Reason” if you choose to terminate your employment.
Page 3 of 7
Of course, all payments described in this Letter Agreement will be subject to all required tax withholding. This Letter Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflict of laws principles that would result in the laws of any other state being applied. Any litigation involving the terms of this Letter Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt the Appendices hereto) shall occur in the federal or state courts located in Palm Beach, Broward or Miami-Dade counties and the parties hereby submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts. Neither party shall assert in any such litigation that such courts are an inappropriate venue for any such litigation on the basis of such courts being an inconvenient forum or otherwise.
Finally, because this Letter Agreement (including its Appendices) is intended to consolidate the terms of your employment, it replaces all previous agreements that you may have entered into with the company, with the exception of the LTIP, which will remain in full force and effect.
Please signify your agreement to the terms of this Letter Agreement by signing and dating three copies and returning two of them to me and one to the Senior Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer.
Sincerely, | |

Exhibit 10.119
BLUEGREEN CORPORATION
2011 LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
(As amended and restated effective as of June 27, 2013)
1. Purpose . The Bluegreen Corporation 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”) is designed to provide certain members of senior management of Bluegreen Corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “ Company ”) incentives that (i) are based on the achievement of certain financial targets and available free cash relating to the Covered Businesses and (ii) more closely align the interests of Shareholders and senior management by, among other things, providing senior management an opportunity to share in proceeds received by Shareholders in connection with a Liquidity Event as and when those proceeds are received by Shareholders. The ultimate purpose of the Plan is to motivate and retain senior management and to strengthen their commitment to the Company and its Covered Businesses by providing additional compensation in the form of bonus payments payable under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Plan and, in doing so, align the interests of senior management with the interests of the Shareholders.
2. | Administration . |
2.1. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have full authority (a) to designate who shall participate in the Plan, (b) to establish the Sharing Percentage for each Participant under the Plan, (c) to establish, amend and rescind the rules and regulations relating to the Plan, (d) to interpret the Plan and any rules and regulations established hereunder and (e) to make all other determinations and to take all other actions necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan. The Committee’s administration of the Plan, including all rules and regulations, interpretations, selections, determinations, approvals, decisions, adjustments, revisions, amendments, exceptions, waivers, delegations and all other actions, shall be final, binding and conclusive on all Participants, the Company and all other persons having or claiming an interest in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall not take an action regarding the Plan for the sole purpose of reducing a payment that would have otherwise been made under the Plan to any Participant.
2.2. The Committee may, any time prior to the final determination of payments in respect of any Performance Period adjust Cumulative Adjusted EBITDA or Cumulative Net Free Cash to reflect the impact of (a) specified corporate transactions, (b) special charges, (c) foreign currency effects, (d) accounting or tax changes, (e) other extraordinary or nonrecurring events and (f) the Company’s commencement of or engagement in Non-Covered Businesses. The Committee may also, in its discretion, establish the manner in which Adjusted EBITDA, Cumulative Target Adjusted EBITDA and Cumulative Net Free Cash and their component definitions will be measured against performance with respect to any Performance Period (including to reflect the Company’s commencement of or engagement in Non-Covered Businesses) and will endeavor to do so by the date which is 90 days after the commencement of the relevant Performance Period, and in any event while the performance relating to such targets remains substantially uncertain.
3. Point System . With respect to each Performance Period there shall initially be 100 Points available to be allocated to Participants hereunder (the “ Initial Point Cap ”). Each “ Point ” is a notional unit representing a fractional interest in an LTIP Bonus Amount created hereunder. The Committee may allocate whole or fractional Points (or both) and shall be under no obligation to allocate all Points constituting the Initial Point Cap. With respect to any Performance Period, the Committee may increase the number of Points available to be allocated (but not beyond 120) through the issuance of additional Award Agreements pursuant to Section 4.2 that relate to newly issued Points. With respect to any Performance Period, the greater of 100 Points and the number of Points outstanding after the issuance of newly issued Points pursuant to Section 4.2 shall be referred to as the “ Applicable Point Cap .” A Participant’s “ Sharing Percentage ” with respect to any Performance Period shall mean the number of Points allocated to that Participant for such Performance Period divided by the Applicable Point Cap, expressed as a percentage. In no event shall the allocation of Points result in Participants in the aggregate holding Sharing Percentages in excess of 100%, nor shall the number of Points allocated to any one Participant entitle that Participant to a Sharing Percentage in excess of 40%.
4. | Participation . |
4.1. Beginning of Performance Year Awards . Within the first 90 days of each Performance Period, the Committee shall prepare and deliver an Award Agreement to each individual designated to participate in the Plan for that Performance Period, unless such individual was already subject to an Award Agreement in a prior Performance Period, in which case, a letter addendum shall be provided to the individual stating the number of Points awarded to the individual for such Performance Period. To become a Participant in the Plan, an individual so designated must execute an Award Agreement and deliver it to the Company. The Award Agreement for a Participant shall state the number of Points allocated to such Participant for such Performance Period, which Points, once awarded, may not be reduced with respect to such Performance Period notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary.
4.2. Mid-Performance Year Awards . With respect to any Performance Period, the Committee may deliver an Award Agreement at any time following the Initial Allocation Date to an individual (i) who was not employed by the Company on the Initial Allocation Date or (ii) if the capacity in which such individual is employed has changed since the Initial Allocation Date. Any Points allocated under any such Award Agreement may be newly issued Points or previously issued Points that were forfeited pursuant to Section 7, provided that no more than 20 newly issued Points in the aggregate may be allocated in any Performance Period.
5. | LTIP Bonus Amounts . |
5.1. Annual LTIP Bonus Amounts . At the end of each Performance Period other than any Performance Period that ends on or as of the month end immediately prior to the effective time of a Liquidity Event, a maximum aggregate annual bonus amount will be established by multiplying the Average Award Percentage by Cumulative Net Free Cash and subtracting from that result Cumulative Pre-Liquidity Event Award Redemptions (each, an “ Annual LTIP Bonus Amount ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the calculation described in this Section 5.1 results in an amount less than $0, the Annual LTIP Bonus Amount for such Performance Period shall be $0.
- 2 - |
5.2. Interim LTIP Bonus Amounts . If, during any Performance Period, the Covered Businesses make a Distribution, the Committee shall, within 60 days following the date on which such Distribution is made (the “ Distribution Date ”), establish a maximum aggregate bonus amount by multiplying the Average Award Percentage by the amount of such Distribution (each, a “ Interim LTIP Bonus Amount ”). Each Interim LTIP Bonus Amount shall be paid within 30 days of such amount being established by the Committee, or, with respect to any Interim LTIP Bonus Amount payable with respect to Distributions made in calendar year 2013 prior to the adoption of this amended and restated Plan, within 30 days of the adoption of this amended and restated Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may choose to defer payment in whole or in part of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount (other than any Interim LTIP Bonus Amounts payable with respect to Distributions made in calendar year 2013 prior to the adoption of this amended and restated Plan) if, in its judgment after taking into account the Company’s current and projected liquidity position and outlook and any other factors it deems relevant, it determines, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer of the Covered Businesses, that payment of any portion of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount within 30 days of its establishment would be imprudent. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the creation of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount shall not preclude, affect or delay the creation of an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount for the Performance Period within which such Interim LTIP Bonus Amount was created, and (ii) to the extent the Committee determines to defer payment of any portion of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount, the amount of the deferred payments shall be included in the definition of Cumulative Net Free Cash for purposes of calculating any LTIP Bonus Amounts otherwise payable thereafter and shall not be included in Cumulative Pre-Liquidity Event Award Redemptions until such time as such payments are actually received by the applicable Participants.
5.3. Liquidity Event Bonus Amount . Upon a Liquidity Event, a maximum aggregate bonus amount will be established by multiplying the Average Award Percentage by any excess of the Realization Value over the Base Value (the “ Liquidity Event Bonus Amount ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the calculation described in this Section 5.3 results in an amount less than $0, the Liquidity Event Bonus Amount shall be $0.
5.4. Undistributed Amounts . Any portion of an LTIP Bonus Amount that is not distributable to Participants because the sum of the Sharing Percentages or Average Sharing Percentages in respect of such LTIP Bonus Amount is less than 100% shall be forfeited and no Participant shall have any right to any such portion.
6. | Level of Participation in LTIP Bonus Amounts . |
6.1. Annual LTIP Bonus Amounts . Subject to Sections 7 and 8, each Participant shall be entitled to a payment from each Annual LTIP Bonus Amount in an amount equal to such Participant’s Sharing Percentage of such Annual LTIP Bonus Amount.
6.2. Interim LTIP Bonus Amounts . Subject to Sections 7 and 8, each Participant shall be entitled to a payment from each Interim LTIP Bonus Amount in an amount equal to such Participant’s Sharing Percentage of such Interim LTIP Bonus Amount.
6.3. Liquidity Event Bonus Amount . Subject to Sections 7 and 8, each Participant shall be entitled to a payment from the Liquidity Event Bonus Amount in an amount equal to such Participant’s Average Sharing Percentage of such Liquidity Event Bonus Amount.

7. | Entitlement to Payment . |
7.1. Active Employment; Compliance with Award Agreement . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Participant shall have any right to receive any portion of (i) any Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or any Interim LTIP Bonus Amount if such Participant has experienced a Separation from Service with the Company for any reason on or before the date on which the applicable Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount is paid; (ii) any Liquidity Event Bonus Amount if such Participant has experienced a Separation from Service with the Company for any reason before the effective time of the Liquidity Event or (iii) any Annual LTIP Bonus Amount, Interim LTIP Bonus Amount or Liquidity Event Bonus Amount if such Participant has breached the terms of his or her Award Agreement prior to the payment of any such bonus amount.
7.2. Death or Disability . Notwithstanding Section 7.1, if the Participant experiences a Separation from Service on account of his or her death or Disability (i) after the end of the applicable Performance Period with respect to an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount (but before payment of such Annual LTIP Bonus Amount), or (ii) on or after the Company has entered into and the Board of Directors has approved an agreement or contract specifically related to and within 12 months thereof resulting in a Liquidity Event (with respect to a Liquidity Event Bonus Amount), then such LTIP Bonus Amount will be payable notwithstanding such Participant’s Separation from Service. In addition, notwithstanding Section 7.1, if the Participant experiences a Separation from Service on account of his or her death or Disability (x) on or after a Distribution Date but before the end of the applicable Performance Period in which the Distribution Date occurs, then the applicable portion of the Interim LTIP Bonus Amount will be payable on or before March 15 of the year following the year in which the Distribution Date occurs, or (y) on or after a Distribution Date but on or after the end of the applicable Performance Period in which the Distribution Date occurs, then the applicable portion of the Interim LTIP Bonus Amount will be payable on or before June 30 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Distribution Date occurs, in each case provided that the Committee does not exercise its discretion to defer payment of any portion of any Interim LTIP Bonus Amount, in which case such deferred amount will be forfeited unless a Participant qualifies for the treatment specified in clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 7.2.
7.3. Forfeitures . If a Participant forfeits all or any portion of the Participant’s rights to payment of any portion of any LTIP Bonus Amount pursuant to Section 7.1, Section 7.2 or for any other reason, such Participant’s interest in such LTIP Bonus Amount shall revert to the Company. No Participant shall have any right to or interest in any amounts that would have been payable to any other Participant under the Plan if such amounts are forfeited by such other Participant or otherwise not paid to such other Participant for any reason.
8. | Form and Timing of Payment . |
8.1. Form . Payments to Participants from any LTIP Bonus Amount shall be in the following forms, in each case less any required withholding of taxes:
- 4 - |
8.1.1. In the case of payments in respect of an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount, cash payable in a single lump sum.
8.1.2. In the case of payments in respect of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount, cash payable in a single lump sum if the Committee does not exercise its discretion to defer payment of any portion and, in the case of any deferred portion, cash payable in a single lump sum in conjunction and simultaneous with the next scheduled Annual LTIP Bonus Amount.
8.1.3. In the case of payments from a Liquidity Event Bonus Amount, in the same form of consideration, in the same ratios and on the same terms as the consideration received by the Company or the Shareholders, as applicable, in connection with the Liquidity Event; provided that, to the extent cash distributions from such Liquidity Event Bonus Amount are insufficient, after taking into account any income or employment taxes withheld “at the source” from such amounts, to pay what the Committee reasonably estimates to be each Participant’s federal, state and local income, employment and excise tax obligation (if any) with respect to the Liquidity Event Bonus Amount, the amount of any such insufficiency shall be distributed to each affected Participant in cash when such amounts would have otherwise been distributed pursuant to Section 8.2.2 and deducted from the non-cash consideration otherwise distributable to such Participant.
8.2. Timing .
8.2.1. Participants shall not receive payments from any Annual LTIP Bonus Amount until (a) the calculation of the amount of the payments themselves and all other calculations ancillary to the calculation of such payments have been audited and verified by an outside third party retained by the Committee, (b) the distribution of payments has been finally authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “ Board ”) or, if so designated by the Board, the Committee and (c) each individual award to be paid to Participants has been formally ratified and certified by the Committee in writing. The Committee shall be required to take the actions described in the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), and payment of the Annual LTIP Bonus Amount shall be paid, by no later than June 30 of the calendar year following the Performance Period to which the performance relates.
8.2.2. Participants shall not receive payments from any Interim LTIP Bonus Amount until the distribution of payments has been authorized by the Board or, if so designated by the Board, the Committee, as provided for in Section 5.2, but in no event later than the earlier of (x) the date on which the Annual LTIP Bonus Amount has been paid for the Performance Period in which the Distribution Date occurs, and (y) the effective time of a Liquidity Event. See Section 7.2 for a special timing rule related to payment of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount with respect to Participants who have died or become Disabled following the Distribution Date.
8.2.3. Participants shall receive consideration from a Liquidity Event Bonus Amount at the same time consideration in respect of the Liquidity Event is delivered to Shareholders.
- 5 - |
8.3. Clawback .
8.3.1. In addition to the authority to require reimbursement under applicable law of amounts paid under the Plan, the Committee has the sole and absolute authority to require that each Participant reimburse the Company for all or any portion of amounts paid from an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount if, during the three-year period starting on the date of payment with respect to the relevant Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount, there is an audit or other re-examination of the accounting and calculations that results in a material restatement of the Covered Businesses’ combined financial statements or similar accounting treatment, which material restatement was caused by accounting error, financial reporting error, fraud, misrepresentation or similar circumstances determined in the Committee’s discretion, and would have resulted in an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount that is less than 95% of the original Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount. Amounts paid to Participants from an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount that would not have been paid based on such restatement are referred to herein as “ Overpayments .” For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may determine that any such Overpayment shall constitute the gross, pre-tax amount that has been overpaid. If reimbursement is required pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Company will first debit any Overpayments from all future amounts payable to the Participant under the Plan; provided that if the Committee reasonably determines in good faith that no further amounts are likely to be paid pursuant to the Plan sufficient to recover all Overpayments, it may require reimbursement by the Participant of such determined insufficiency of Overpayments at such time, to the extent permitted under applicable law. If such material restatement would have resulted in an Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount that is more than 105% of the original Annual LTIP Bonus Amount or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount (referred to herein as “ Underpayments ”), then such Underpayments will be paid in cash in a lump sum to the extent of positive Cumulative Net Free Cash in any future Performance Period (after deducting any Annual LTIP Bonus Amounts or Interim LTIP Bonus Amount payable in respect of such Performance Period) to the individuals who were Participants with respect to the relevant Performance Period, subject to Section 7.1.
8.3.2. Any Participant who has received payment in respect of an Interim LTIP Bonus Amount shall be required to repay to the Company the net after tax amount of such payment if such Participant’s employment terminates for any reason (other than such Participant’s death or Disability) or such Participant breaches his or her Award Agreement before the earlier of (i) date on which Annual LTIP Bonus Amounts are paid with respect to the Performance Period in which such Interim LTIP Bonus Amount was paid, or (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidity Event.

9. Effect of Change in Control . Upon a Change in Control, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan: (a) the Committee (or its successor) in consultation with Participants holding a majority of the Average Sharing Percentages shall take such action as it deems necessary in good faith to equitably adjust the applicable performance targets under the Plan to reflect the effects (if any) of the transaction or transactions resulting in the Change in Control on the Covered Businesses; (b) except to the extent provided in the foregoing clause (a), as is required to comply with applicable laws, or as consented to by Participants holding a majority of the Average Sharing Percentages, the Committee (or its successor) shall be prohibited from amending or terminating the Plan (including any Award Agreement); (c) the Committee shall not add or remove activities from the Covered Businesses without the consent of Participants holding a majority of the Average Sharing Percentages; provided that if such Participants do not consent to any such addition or removal, the Committee may elect to have the dispute resolved by an independent party by following the procedures set forth in subsection (h) below; (d) for so long as a Participant has not experienced a Separation from Service, such Participant’s Sharing Percentage for any Performance Period during the remainder of the Annual LTIP Plan Term shall not be less than such Participant’s Sharing Percentage as of the effective time of such Change in Control; (e) the Applicable Point Cap shall remain the Applicable Point Cap for the remainder of the Annual LTIP Plan Term; (f) if a Liquidity Event has not occurred by the end of the Annual LTIP Plan Term, for so long as such Participant has not experienced a Separation from Service, each Participant’s Average Sharing Percentage until a Liquidity Event occurs shall not be less than such Participant’s Average Sharing Percentage as of the last day of the Annual LTIP Plan Term; (g) the Committee (or its successor) shall not establish a Base Cash Balance for any Performance Period occurring after the Change in Control that is more than 20% in excess of the Base Cash Balance established in respect of the Performance Period in which the Change in Control occurs, unless the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are Participants and consent or, if both are not Participants, the two highest ranking Participants consent; (h) if Participants holding a majority of the Average Sharing Percentages dispute the Committee’s determination of Fair Market Value or Realization Value in good faith, Fair Market Value or Realization Value as applicable shall be determined by an independent party mutually selected by such Participants and the Committee within seven days of the Committee’s determination; if such Participants and the Committee cannot mutually agree on the selection of an independent party, such Participants and the Committee shall each separately select an independent party within seven days of their disagreement, which independent parties will themselves select a third independent party to make such determinations, with the cost of all such independent parties to be borne by the Company; (i) the Company shall cease to have discretion over the deferral of Interim LTIP Bonus Amounts and any previously deferred Interim LTIP Bonus Amounts shall be paid within 15 days of such Change in Control; and (j) if the Company terminates the services of any Participant for the primary purpose of preventing such Participant from becoming entitled to any specific future payment under this Plan, then such terminated Participant shall nevertheless remain entitled to such specific payment.

This Confidential Separation Agreement and General Release of All Claims (hereinafter “Agreement”) is hereby entered into between David Bidgood, and all of his agents, successors, heirs, and assigns (collectively referred to as “Executive”), and Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Employer”).
Recitals
WHEREAS , Executive’s employment has been ended by the Employer without cause.
WHEREAS , Executive’s last day of employment with Employer is September 8, 2017 (“Separation Date”) and after that date, the only payments Executive will be entitled to receive are those set forth in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, Executive desires to compromise, finally settle, and fully release any and all actual or potential claims including those related to his employment and termination of employment that Executive in any capacity may have or claim to have against Employer.
WHEREAS , Executive acknowledges that he is waiving his rights and claims only in exchange for consideration in addition to anything of value to which he already is entitled from Employer.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants between the parties, Executive and Employer hereby agree to the following Terms and Conditions:
Terms and Conditions
1. All the foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated as part of these Terms and Conditions.

(3) The gross amount of the monetary equivalent of the cost of 18 months of COBRA premiums under the Employer’s group health plan for health, dental and vision coverage for Executive and his dependents covered under the plan as of the date of this Agreement less the monetary equivalent of the required contribution for comparable coverage by active employees under the Employer’s group health plan. This amount will be payable as provided in Paragraph 3C below to assist Executive in paying for health insurance coverage, regardless of whether he elects to continue his group health, dental and vision insurance coverage through COBRA, which will require Executive’s payment to the Employer’s COBRA administrator, obtains insurance from another source or does not maintain any insurance. This amount is referred to as the “Insurance Supplement.” The amount of the Insurance Supplement is subject to adjustment based on the equivalent COBRA premiums under the Employer’s group health plan for health, dental and vision coverage that Employer establishes during the period March 9, 2018 through February 22, 2019. For information only, as of the date of this Agreement, the amount of COBRA equivalent premiums for 18 months for Executive, less the amount of required contribution by active employees for comparable coverage, is $16,450.74.

(4) Potential benefit under the Bluegreen Corporation 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective as of June 27, 2013 (“LTIP”), as described in Paragraph 4 below.
3. Cash Payments .
A. Payment of $1,299,138.00 will be made as follows:
(1) $49,966.85 on each of Employer’s bi-weekly pay dates beginning October 6, 2017 through February 9, 2018;
(2) $40,331.50 on February 23, 2018;
(3) $208,762.00 on or about March 31, 2018;
(4) $379,556.00 on or about March 1, 2019;

B. Payment of $1,650,000.00 will be made in 26 equal payments of $63,461.54 on each of Employer’s bi-weekly pay dates beginning after Executive’s Separation Date. However, because Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and any regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”), and due to the operation of Paragraph 5 of this Agreement, payment will not begin until the later of six months and one day after Executive’s Separation Date or March 9, 2018 and will extend for a total of 26 payments.

D. Payment of all cash amounts provided under this Agreement will reduced by applicable taxes and other withholdings authorized by the Executive or required by law and paid under the Employer’s regular payroll cycle. All specific pay dates provided assume Executive’s release referred to in Paragraph 7 below is delivered to Employer and becomes irrevocable on or before October 4, 2017. If Executive’s release is delivered to Employer and becomes irrevocable after October 4, 2017, the pay dates provided in Paragraph 3A(1) and (2) above will be delayed and the first payment provided above will be made on the first of Employer’s regularly scheduled bi-weekly pay dates beginning no fewer than ten calendar days after such irrevocable date; provided, however that commencement of payment will not be delayed longer than 10 days after expiration of any period within which Executive must deliver a release in order to commence payment and if the period to deliver the release would span two tax years payment will not start until the second tax year. If Employer changes its payroll cycle and pay dates throughout the period for payment provided above, the dates for payments based on specific pay dates shall be adjusted accordingly but in no case will any payment be made later than two weeks after the date originally scheduled and not payment originally scheduled to occur in one tax year may not be postponed until a later tax year.
4. Potential LTIP Benefit . During active employment Executive participated in the LTIP. Capitalized terms in the balance of this Paragraph are defined in the LTIP. Section 5.3 of the LTIP provides for payment of a Liquidity Event Bonus, subject to the requirement in Section 7.1 of the LTIP that a Participant in the LTIP be actively employed at the effective time of the Liquidity Event. In consideration of the Executive’s long service with the Employer during which he has contributed greatly to the long-term success of the Employer and notwithstanding the requirement in Section 7.1 of the LTIP, Executive will be eligible to receive a Liquidity Event Bonus payment under the LTIP, in accordance with the balance of the terms of the LTIP, if a definitive agreement for a Liquidity Event is signed within two years after his Separation Date, even if the effective time of such Liquidity Event as defined in the LTIP occurs after the expiration of the two-year period. For this purpose, Executive’s Average Sharing Percentage will be determined as of the date of his termination of employment and will remain unchanged. All other terms and conditions of the LTIP will govern payment of the Liquidity Event Bonus, if any. Executive will not be eligible for any other bonuses or payments under the LTIP after the effective date of this Agreement.
5. Code Section 409A .
A. Payments under this Agreement that will constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A that otherwise would be payable or distributable under this Agreement by reason of Executive’s separation from service during a period in which he is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A), then, subject to any permissible acceleration of payment by the Employer under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-3(j)(4), commencement of the amount of such non-exempt deferred compensation that otherwise would be payable during the six-month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service will be delayed until the first of Employer’s regularly scheduled pay dates in the seventh month following Executive’s separation from service, and the normal payment schedule for any remaining payments or will start at that date.
B. Any payment or benefit required to be paid hereunder on account of Executive’s termination of employment, service (or any other similar term) will be made only in connection with Executive’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A.
C. To the extent permitted by Code Section 409A, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Employer, in its sole discretion, may elect to accelerate the time or form of payment of a benefit owed to Executive in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).
D. Employer may take any action considered to be corrective in nature concerning compliance with Code Section 409A, as described in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2010-6.
- 3 - | Executive Initials: /s/ DB |
E. Employer will not be subject to any claim, liability, or expense, and will not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect Executive, from the obligation to pay any taxes imposed on Executive under Section 409A.
6. Executive’s Death . If Executive dies before completion of all amounts due under this Agreement, any remaining amounts due under Paragraph 3A (1) – (5) and 3B will be payable to Executive’s estate. Payment of the Insurance Supplement under Paragraph 3C will cease with Executive’s death. If Executive dies prior to the date when the Liquidity Event Bonus under the LTIP is payable under Section 4 above, the Liquidity Event Bonus will be payable to the personal representative of Executive’s estate.
7. Release . Subject to Paragraph 8, in exchange for the promises which Employer makes in this Agreement, Executive agrees:
A. To generally release, satisfy and forever discharge Employer, Bluegreen Corporation, and each and all of their respective predecessors, parent companies, successors, subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, divisions, and assigns, and each and all of their respective past and present officers, directors, members, employees, consultants, agents, insurers, attorneys, and assigns (collectively referred to as the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, demands or liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, which Executive ever had or may now have from the beginning of time to the date of this Agreement.
