PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information concerning our Company, the common stock being sold in this offering and our financial statements appearing in this prospectus. Because this is only a summary, you should read the rest of this prospectus before making an investment decision. Read this entire prospectus carefully, especially the risks described under “Risk Factors.”
Bluegreen Vacations
We are a leading vacation ownership company that markets and sells vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) and manages resorts in top leisure and urban destinations. Our resort network includes 42 Club Resorts (resorts in which owners in the Bluegreen Vacation Club (“Vacation Club”) have the right to use most of the units in connection with their VOI ownership) and 24 Club Associate Resorts (resorts in which owners in our Vacation Club have the right to use a limited number of units in connection with their VOI ownership). Our Club Resorts and Club Associate Resorts are primarily located in popular, high-volume, “drive-to” vacation locations, including Orlando, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, among others. Through our points-based system, the approximately 210,000 owners in our Vacation Club have the flexibility to stay at units available at any of our resorts and have access to almost 11,000 other hotels and resorts through partnerships and exchange networks. We have a robust sales and marketing platform supported by exclusive marketing relationships with nationally-recognized consumer brands, such as Bass Pro and Choice Hotels, which drive sales within our core demographic.
Historically, our business consisted of the sale of VOIs in resorts that we developed or acquired (“developed VOI sales”). While we continue to conduct such sales and development activities, we now also derive a significant portion of our revenue from our capital-light business model, which utilizes our expertise and infrastructure to generate both VOI sales and recurring revenue from third parties without the significant capital investment generally associated with the development and acquisition of resorts. Our capital-light business activities include sales of VOIs owned by third-party developers pursuant to which we are paid a commission (“fee-based sales”) and sales of VOIs that we purchase under just-in-time (“JIT”) arrangements with third-party developers or from secondary market sources. In addition, we provide other fee-based services, including resort management, mortgage servicing, title services and construction management. We also offer financing to qualified VOI purchasers, which generates significant interest income.

Excludes “Other Income, Net.”
Our Vacation Club has grown from approximately 170,000 owners as of December 31, 2012 to approximately 210,000 owners as of July 31, 2017. We primarily serve a demographic underpenetrated within the vacation ownership industry, as the typical Vacation Club owner has an average annual household income of approximately $75,000 as compared to an industry average of  $90,000. According to the most recent U.S. census data, households with an annual income of  $50,000 to $100,000 represent the largest percentage of the total population (approximately 29%). We believe our ability to effectively scale our transaction size to suit our customer, as well as our high-quality, conveniently-located, “drive-to” resorts are attractive to this targeted demographic.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
The Vacation Ownership Industry
The vacation ownership, or timeshare, industry is one of the fastest growing segments of the global travel and tourism sector. Compared to hotel rooms, vacation ownership units typically offer more spacious floor plans and residential features, such as living rooms, fully-equipped kitchens and dining areas. Compared to owning a vacation home in its entirety, the key advantages of vacation ownership products typically include a lower up-front acquisition cost and annual expenses, resort-style features and services and, often, an established infrastructure to exchange usage rights for stays across multiple locations. VOI sales have grown 800% over the last 30 years with more than 9.2 million families (approximately 6.9% of U.S. households) owning at least one VOI in 2016. We believe that this growth has been driven by the benefits of VOI ownership and the entrance of globally recognized lodging and entertainment brands into the vacation ownership industry.
The U.S. vacation ownership industry experienced a contraction in sales as a result of the overall economic recession in 2008 and 2009, during which time we and many other vacation ownership companies and resort developers reduced liquidity needs by managing businesses at lower tour flow and sales levels. Increasing demand for VOIs and favorable macroeconomic trends, including increased discretionary income, improving consumer confidence and a shifting preference among consumers for increased spending on leisure, have led to strong industry growth since 2009. However, because sales remain below the peak level reached in 2007, we believe there remains sustained opportunity for additional growth.
While the majority of VOI owners are over the age of 50, new owners are an average of approximately 10 years younger, with 39% between the ages of 35 and 49 and 30% under the age of 35. VOI owners have an average household income of  $90,000 and 90% of VOI owners own their own home.
Our Product
Since entering the vacation ownership industry in 1994, we have generated over 582,000 VOI sales transactions, including over 99,000 fee-based sales transactions. Vacation Club owners receive an annual or biennial allotment of  “points” in perpetuity that may be used to stay at any of our 42 Club Resorts and 24 Club Associate Resorts, with the number of points required for a stay at a resort varying depending on a variety of factors, including resort location, size of the unit, vacation season and the days of the week. Subject to certain restrictions and fees, Vacation Club owners are typically allowed to carry over any unused points for one year and to “borrow” points from the next year. See “Business–Our Product” for additional information regarding the resorts within our Vacation Club and various other lodging and vacation opportunities available to our Vacation Club owners, as well as a more detailed overview of our product and business offerings.
[MISSING IMAGE: C477136_PIE-SALES.JPG]
Our VOI sales include:

Fee-based sales of VOIs owned by third-party developers pursuant to which we are paid a commission (generally in an amount equal to 65-75% of the VOI sales price);

JIT sales of VOIs we acquire from third-party developers in close proximity to when we intend to sell such VOIs;

Secondary market sales of VOIs we acquire from homeowners associations (“HOAs”) or other owners; and

Developed VOI sales, or sales of VOIs in resorts that we develop or acquire (excluding inventory acquired pursuant to JIT or secondary market arrangements).

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Our Competitive Strengths
Leading operator of  “drive-to” locations.    Our Vacation Club resorts, together with the 43 resorts within the direct-exchange network (“direct-exchange”) that are available to Vacation Club owners who choose to join the Bluegreen Traveler Plus program (“Traveler Plus”), provide a broad and comprehensive offering of resort and urban destinations across the United States and the Caribbean. Our resorts are primarily “drive-to” resort destinations, with approximately 85% of our Vacation Club owners living within a four-hour drive of at least one of our resorts. Our resorts typically feature condominium-style accommodations with amenities such as fully equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi internet access, entertainment centers and in-room laundry facilities, providing a home away from home for our Vacation Club owners. In addition, our resorts typically include numerous amenities such as clubhouses (including a pool, game room, exercise facilities and lounge) and offer hotel-type staff and concierge services.
Capital-efficient and flexible business model.    Our business model is designed to give us flexibility to capitalize on opportunities and quickly adapt to changing market environments to achieve sustained growth while maximizing earnings and cash flow. Our fee-based sales and JIT sales provide us with revenues where we are not at risk for development financing and have no capital requirements, thereby increasing our return on invested capital (“ROIC”). Secondary market sales generally reduce our cost of sales because the VOI inventory sold in connection with secondary market sales is typically acquired by us at a greater discount to retail price compared to developed VOI sales and JIT sales. We have the ability to adjust our targeted mix of capital-light VOI sales vs. developed VOI sales, sales to new customers vs. sales to existing Vacation Club owners, and cash sales vs. financed sales. While we may from time to time pursue opportunities that impact our short-term results, our long-term goal is to achieve sustained growth while maximizing earnings and cash flow.
Access to inventory.    As of December 31, 2016, we owned completed VOI inventory with an estimated retail sales value of approximately $548 million (excluding units not currently being marketed as VOIs, including model units) and through fee-based and JIT arrangements had access to additional completed VOI inventory with an estimated retail sales value of approximately $489 million. Based on current estimates and expectations, we believe this inventory, combined with inventory being developed by us or our third-party developer clients, and inventory that we may reacquire in connection with mortgage and maintenance fee defaults, can support our VOI sales at our current levels for over four years.
Large and growing loyal, high-quality owner base.    The number of Vacation Club owners has increased at a 5% compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) between 2012 and 2016, from approximately 170,000 owners as of December 31, 2012 to approximately 208,000 owners as of December 31, 2016. As of July 31, 2017, there were approximately 210,000 owners in our Vacation Club. Our Vacation Club owners’ satisfaction with, and loyalty to, our Vacation Club drives our high-margin VOI sales to existing Vacation Club owners, with these sales accounting for 46% and 49% of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Further, the customers to whom we provided financing in connection with their VOI purchases during 2016 had a weighted-average FICO score after a 30-day, “same as cash” period from the point of sale of 712. We generally do not originate financing to customers with FICO scores below 575.
Long-term stable recurring revenue streams.    We earn fees for providing resort management services to resorts and our Vacation Club. As of June 30, 2017, we provided management services to 47 resorts and our Vacation Club through contractual arrangements with HOAs and had a 100% renewal rate on management contracts from our Club Resorts. We believe our management contracts yield highly predictable cash flows without the traditional risks associated with hotel management contracts that are linked to daily rate or occupancy. In connection with the management services provided to our Vacation Club, we manage the reservation system and provide owner, billing and collection services. In addition to resort and club management services, we provide other fee-based services that produce revenues without significant capital investment, including providing title and escrow services for fees in connection with closing of VOI sales, and generating fees for mortgage servicing and construction management services from third-party developers.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Relationships with Bass Pro.    We have an exclusive marketing agreement with Bass Pro, a nationally-recognized retailer of fishing, marine, hunting, camping and sports gear, that provides us with the right to market and sell vacation packages at kiosks in each of Bass Pro’s retail locations, as well as the right to market in Bass Pro catalogs and on its website. Additionally, we have the right to access Bass Pro’s customer database which consists of loyal customers that strongly match our core customer demographic. We sold vacation packages in 68 of Bass Pro’s stores as of December 31, 2016. VOI sales to prospects and leads generated by the agreement with Bass Pro accounted for approximately 16% and 15% of our VOI sales volume for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Our marketing alliance with Bass Pro originated in 2000, has been renewed twice and currently runs through 2025.
In addition to our marketing agreement with Bass Pro, we have a joint venture with an affiliate of Bass Pro, Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations LLC (“Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations”), in which we own a 51% interest and an affiliate of Bass Pro owns the remaining 49% interest. Our Vacation Club owners have access to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations’ resorts, which consist of three premier wilderness-themed resorts, including a 40-acre resort overlooking Table Rock Lake and the surrounding Ozarks. At Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations resorts, Vacation Club owners can enjoy a 9,000 square foot clubhouse, lazy river and a rock-climbing wall, in addition to full access to the amenities and recreational activities of Big Cedar Lodge.
Strong corporate marketing partnerships driving robust tour flow.    In addition to our relationship with Bass Pro, our sales and marketing platform utilizes a variety of other methods to drive tour flow, including marketing alliances with other nationally-recognized brands, lead generation initiatives at high-traffic venues and events, telemarketing calls and existing customer referrals. As of December 31, 2016, we had a pipeline of over 230,000 marketing vacation packages sold, which generally require attendance at a sales presentation held at one of our sales centers. Vacation packages typically convert to sales tours at a rate of 57%. We have an exclusive strategic relationship with Choice Hotels which enables us to leverage Choice Hotels’ brands, customer relationships and marketing channels to sell vacation packages. We also generate leads and sell vacation packages through our relationships with various other retail operators and entertainment providers. Our relationship with Choice Hotels originated in 2013 and was extended in 2017 to, subject to its terms and conditions, run through at least 2032. As of December 31, 2016, we had kiosks in 31 outlet malls, strategically selected based on proximity to major vacation destinations and strong foot traffic of consumers matching our core demographic. In addition, as of December 31, 2016, we had lead generation operations in over 300 locations.
Experienced management team and engaged associates.    Our core executive team includes Shawn B. Pearson, who joined us as our Chief Executive Officer and President in February 2017, Anthony M. Puleo, who joined us in 1997 and has served as our Chief Financial Officer since 2005 and as President of Bluegreen Treasury Services since 2010, and David L. Pontius, who joined us in 2007, has served as President of Bluegreen Services since 2008 and as Executive Vice President since 2010, and was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in September 2017 after serving as Chief Strategy Officer since 2010. These executives, together with the other members of our senior management, lead our workforce of over 5,700 employees and have a proven background in growing businesses, improving their profitability and successfully leading them through various economic cycles, including, with respect to Mr. Pontius and Mr. Puleo, the development of our capital-light business model in 2008.
Our Core Operating and Growth Strategies
Grow VOI sales.    We intend to utilize our proven sales and marketing platform to continue our strong history of VOI sales growth through the expansion of existing alliances, continued development of new marketing programs and sales to our existing Vacation Club owners. We believe there are a number of opportunities within our existing marketing alliances to drive future growth, including the expansion of our marketing efforts with Bass Pro and Choice Hotels. In addition to existing programs, we plan to utilize our sales and marketing expertise to continue to identify marketing relationships with other nationally-recognized brands that resonate with our core demographic. We also actively seek to sell additional VOI points to existing Vacation Club owners, which are generally higher-margin sales as compared to sales to new customers, as sales to existing owners typically involve significantly lower

TABLE OF CONTENTS
marketing costs and have higher conversion rates. We are also committed to continually expanding and updating our sales offices to more effectively convert tours generated from our marketing programs into sales. We continue to identify high-traffic resorts where we believe increased investment in sales office infrastructure will yield strong sales results.
Continue to enhance the Vacation Club experience.    We believe our Vacation Club offers owners exceptional value. Our Vacation Club offers owners access to our 42 Club Resorts and 24 Club Associate Resorts in premier vacation destinations, as well as access to approximately 11,000 other hotels and resorts and other vacation experiences such as cruises through partnerships and exchange networks. We continuously seek new ways to add value and flexibility to our Vacation Club and enhance the vacation experience of our Vacation Club owners, including the addition of new destinations, the expansion of our exchange programs and the addition of new partnerships to offer increased vacation options. We also continuously improve our technology, including websites and applications, to enhance our Vacation Club owners’ experiences. We believe this focus, combined with our high-quality customer service, will continue to enhance the Vacation Club experience, driving sales to new customers and additional sales to existing Vacation Club owners.
Grow our high-margin, cash generating businesses.    We seek to continue to grow our ancillary businesses, including resort management, title services and loan servicing. We believe these businesses can grow with little additional investment in our corporate infrastructure and will produce high-margin revenues.
Increase sales and operating efficiencies across all customer touch-points.    We actively seek to improve our operational execution across all aspects of our business. In our sales and marketing platform, we utilize a variety of screening methods and data-driven analyses to attract high-quality prospects to our sales offices in an effort to increase sales volume per guest (“VPG”). We also continue to test new and innovative methods to generate sales prospects with a focus on increasing cost efficiency. In connection with our management services and consumer financing activities, we will continue to leverage our size, infrastructure and expertise to increase operating efficiency and profitability. In addition, as we expand, we expect to gain further operational efficiencies by streamlining our support operations such as call centers, customer service, administration and information technology.
Maintain operational flexibility while growing our business.    We believe we have built a flexible business model that allows us to capitalize on opportunities and quickly adapt to changing market environments. We intend to continue to pursue growth through a balanced mix of capital-light sales vs. developed VOI sales, sales to new customers vs. sales to existing Vacation Club owners and cash sales vs. financed sales. While we may from time to time pursue opportunities that impact our short-term results, our long-term goal is to achieve sustained growth while maximizing earnings and cash flow.
Pursue strategic transactions.    With a disciplined approach to capital allocation, we expect to continue to pursue acquisitions that meet our high-quality standards and that we believe will provide value to our Vacation Club owners or drive increased tour flow and sales. We may seek acquisitions of resort assets, sales and marketing platforms, management companies and contracts, and other assets, properties and businesses, including where we believe significant synergies and cost savings may be available. We may choose to pursue acquisitions directly or in partnership with third-party developers or others, including pursuant to arrangements where third-party developers purchase the resort assets and we sell the VOIs in the acquired resort on a commission basis. We have a long history of successfully identifying, acquiring and integrating complementary businesses, and our flexible sales and marketing platform enables us to complete these transactions in a variety of economic conditions.
Certain Risks Related to Our Business
Investing in our common stock involves risks. There are a number of risks you should carefully consider before making an investment decision, including those described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 13 and elsewhere in this prospectus. These risks include, among others, that:

unfavorable general economic conditions could adversely affect our business, and deterioration in conditions in the United States and globally could result in decreased demand for VOIs and our ability to obtain future financing;
5

TABLE OF CONTENTS

our revenues are highly dependent on the travel industry and declines in or disruptions to the travel industry may adversely affect us;

the vacation ownership industry in which we operate is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete effectively;

our substantial level of indebtedness and the terms of our debt covenants could adversely affect us, and we may incur additional indebtedness in the future;

our business plan has historically depended on our ability to sell, securitize or borrow against the consumer loans that we generate, and our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely impacted if we are unable to do so in the future;

we are subject to extensive regulation relating to the marketing and sale of VOIs and collection of customer loans; and

Woodbridge Holdings, LLC (“Woodbridge”), our sole shareholder prior to this offering, will continue to control us immediately following this offering, and the interests of Woodbridge, Woodbridge’s sole member, BBX Capital Corporation (NYSE:BBX) (“BBX Capital”), and the controlling shareholders of BBX Capital, Alan B. Levan and John E. Abdo, who also serve as both our and BBX Capital’s Chairman and Vice Chairman, respectively, may conflict with our interests or the interests of our other shareholders.
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies, including:

reduced financial disclosure;

reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

exemption from the requirements to hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or shareholder approval of golden parachute payments; and

exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.
We may take advantage of these exemptions up until the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of this offering or such earlier time that we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue, we have more than $700.0 million in market value of our stock held by non-affiliates (and we have been a public company for at least 12 months and have filed one Annual Report on Form 10-K) or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt securities over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the exemptions available to emerging growth companies. We have taken advantage of certain reduced reporting obligations in this prospectus. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies.
The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are choosing to irrevocably “opt out” of the extended transition periods available under the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

Our Organization
We were organized in 1985 as a Massachusetts corporation named Patten Corporation, primarily focused on retail land sales to consumers. In 1994, we entered into the vacation ownership industry. In 1996, we changed our name to Bluegreen Corporation. From 1986 through April 2, 2013, our common stock was publicly listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). On April 2, 2013, Woodbridge acquired all of the shares of our common stock not previously owned by it, and we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge. Woodbridge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX), a Florida-based publicly traded diversified holding company. On March 10, 2014, we were redomiciled from a Massachusetts corporation to a Florida corporation. On September 25, 2017, we changed our name to Bluegreen Vacations Corporation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings, or net income, before taking into account interest income (excluding interest earned on VOI notes receivable), interest expense (excluding interest expense incurred on debt secured by our VOI notes receivable), income and franchise taxes, loss (gain) on assets held for sale, depreciation and amortization, and amounts attributable to the non-controlling interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations (in which we own a 51% interest). For purposes of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, no adjustments were made for interest income earned on our VOI notes receivable or the interest expense incurred on debt that is secured by such notes receivable because they are both considered to be part of the operations of our business.
We consider our total Adjusted EBITDA and our Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of our operating performance, and it is used by us to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by companies, lenders, investors and others because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity, including cash flow, derived in accordance with GAAP, or to any other method of analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of using Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool include, without limitation, that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (i) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (ii) our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness (other than as noted above); (iii) our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; (iv) historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; or (v) the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations or performance. Further, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to definitions of Adjusted EBITDA or other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The following tables reconcile net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to total Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA.

System-wide sales of VOIs, net represents all sales of VOIs, whether owned by us or a third party immediately prior to the sale. Sales of VOIs owned by third parties are transacted as sales of VOIs in our Vacation Club through the same selling and marketing process we use to sell our VOI inventory. We consider system-wide sales of VOIs, net to be an important operating measure because it reflects all sales of VOIs by our sales and marketing operations without regard to whether we or a third party owned such VOI inventory at the time of sale. System-wide sales of VOIs, net is not a recognized term under GAAP and

TABLE OF CONTENTS
RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves risks. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this prospectus, including our financial statements, before making an investment decision. The occurrence of any of the adverse developments described in the following risk factors could materially and adversely harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose part or all of your investment. In addition, new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible to predict all risk factors or assess the extent to which any risk factor, or combination of risk factors, may affect our business. Accordingly, in addition to the risks and uncertainties described below, our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could also be harmed by risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently do not believe are material.
Risks Related to Our Business
We are subject to the business, financial and operating risks inherent to the vacation ownership industry, any of which could adversely impact our business, prospects and results.
We are subject to a number of business, financial and operating risks inherent to the vacation ownership industry, including, without limitation:

significant competition from other vacation ownership businesses and hospitality providers;

market and/or consumer perception of vacation ownership companies and the industry in general;

increases in operating and other costs (as a result of inflation or otherwise), including marketing costs, employee compensation and benefits, interest expense and insurance, which may not be offset by price or fee increases in our business;

changes in taxes and governmental regulations, including those that influence or set wages, prices, interest rates or construction and maintenance procedures and costs;

the costs and efforts associated with complying with applicable laws and regulations;

risks related to the development or acquisition of resorts, including delays in, or cancellations of, planned or future resort development or acquisition activities;

shortages of labor or labor disruptions;

the availability and cost of capital necessary for us and third-party developers with whom we do business to fund investments, capital expenditures and service debt obligations;

our ability to securitize the receivables that we originate in connection with VOI sales;

the financial condition of third-party developers with whom we do business;

relationships with third-party developers, our Vacation Club members and HOAs;

changes in the supply and demand for our products and services;

private resales of VOIs and the sale of VOIs in the secondary market; and

unlawful or deceptive third-party VOI resale, cease and desist, or vacation package sales schemes, and reputational risk associated therewith.
Any of these factors could increase our costs, limit or reduce the prices we are able to charge for our products and services or our ability to develop or acquire new resorts or source VOI supply from third parties, or otherwise adversely impact our business, prospects or results.
Our business and operations, including our ability to market VOIs, may be adversely affected by general economic conditions and the availability of financing.
Our business is subject to risks related to general economic and industry conditions and trends. Our results, operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by unfavorable general economic and industry conditions, such as high unemployment rates and job insecurity, declines in discretionary spending,
13

TABLE OF CONTENTS
declines in real estate values and the occurrence of geopolitical conflicts, including if these or other factors adversely impact the availability of financing for us or our customers or the ability of our customers’ to otherwise pay amounts owed under notes receivable. Further, adverse changes affecting the vacation ownership industry, such as an oversupply of vacation ownership units, a reduction in demand for such units, changes in travel and other consumer preferences, demographic and vacation patterns, changes in governmental regulation of the industry, imposition of increased taxes by governmental authorities, the declaration of bankruptcy and/or credit defaults by other vacation ownership companies and negative publicity for the industry, could also have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, our operations and results may be negatively impacted if we are unable to update our business strategy over time and from time to time in response to changing economic and industry conditions.
If we are unable to develop or acquire VOI inventory or enter into and maintain fee-based service agreements or other arrangements to source VOI inventory, our business and results would be adversely impacted.
In addition to developed VOI sales, we source VOIs as part of our capital-light business strategy through fee-based service agreements with third-party developers and through JIT and secondary market arrangements. If we are unable to develop or acquire resorts at the levels or in the time frame anticipated, or are unsuccessful in entering into agreements with third-party developers or others to source VOI inventory in connection with our capital-light business strategy, we may experience a decline in VOI supply, which could result in a decrease in our revenues. In addition, a decline in VOI supply could result in a decrease of financing revenues that are generated by VOI purchases and fee and rental revenues that are generated by our management services.
Our business and properties are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws, regulations and policies. Changes in these laws, regulations and policies, as well as the cost of maintaining compliance with new or existing laws, regulations and policies and the imposition of additional taxes on operations, could adversely affect our business. In addition, results of audits of our tax returns or those of our subsidiaries may have a material adverse impact on our financial condition.
The federal government and the state and local jurisdictions in which we operate have enacted extensive regulations that affect the manner in which we market and sell VOIs and conduct our other business operations. In addition, many states have adopted specific laws and regulations regarding the sale of VOIs. Many states, including Florida and South Carolina, where certain of our resorts are located, extensively regulate the creation and management of timeshare resorts, the marketing and sale of timeshare properties, the escrow of purchaser funds prior to the completion of construction and closing, the content and use of advertising materials and promotional offers, the delivery of an offering memorandum and the creation and operation of exchange programs and multi-site timeshare plan reservation systems. Moreover, with regard to sales conducted in South Carolina, the closing of real estate and mortgage loan transactions must be conducted under the supervision of an attorney licensed in South Carolina and otherwise in accordance with South Carolina’s Time Sharing Transaction Procedures Act. Most states also have other laws that are applicable to our activities, such as timeshare project registration laws, real estate licensure laws, mortgage licensure laws, sellers of travel licensure laws, anti-fraud laws, consumer protection laws, telemarketing laws, prize, gift and sweepstakes laws, and consumer credit laws. Our management of, and dealings with, HOAs, including our purchase of defaulted inventory from HOAs in connection with our secondary market sales, are also subject to state laws and resort rules and regulations, including those with respect to the establishment of budgets and expenditures, rule-making, and the imposition of maintenance assessments.
We are authorized to market and sell VOIs in all locations at which our marketing and sales are conducted. If our agents or employees violate applicable regulations or licensing requirements, their acts or omissions could cause the states where the violations occurred to revoke or refuse to renew our licenses, render our sales contracts void or voidable, or impose fines on us based on past activities.
In addition, the federal government and the state and local jurisdictions in which we conduct business have generally enacted extensive regulations relating to direct marketing and telemarketing, including the federal government’s national “do not call” list, the making of marketing and related calls to cell phone users, a significant development in light of cell phone usage rapidly becoming the primary method of communication, the Telemarketing Sales Rule, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. These regulations, as well as international data protection laws, have impacted
14

TABLE OF CONTENTS
our marketing of VOIs. While we have taken steps designed to ensure compliance with applicable regulations, these steps have increased and are expected to continue to increase our marketing costs and may not prevent failures in compliance. Additionally, adoption of new state or federal laws regulating marketing and solicitation, and changes to existing laws, could adversely affect current or planned marketing activities and cause us to change our marketing strategy. If this occurs, we may not be able to develop adequate alternative marketing strategies, which could affect the amount and timing of our VOI sales. We cannot predict the impact that these legislative initiatives or any other legislative measures that may be proposed or enacted in the future may have on our marketing strategies and results. Further, from time to time, complaints are filed against us by individuals claiming that they received calls in violation of applicable regulations.
Most states have taxed VOIs as real estate, imposing property taxes that are billed to the respective HOAs that maintain the related resorts, and have not sought to impose sales tax upon the sale of the VOI or accommodations tax upon the use of the VOI. From time to time, however, various states have attempted to promulgate new laws or apply existing laws impacting the taxation of VOIs to require that sales or accommodations taxes be collected. Should new state or local laws be implemented or interpreted to impose sales or accommodations taxes on VOIs, our business could be materially adversely affected.
From time to time, consumers file complaints against us in the ordinary course of our business. We could be required to incur significant costs to resolve these complaints or enter into consents with regulators regarding our activities, including that we may be required to refund all or a portion of the purchase price paid by the customer for the VOI. We may not remain in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, and violations of applicable laws may have adverse implications on us, including negative publicity, potential litigation and regulatory sanctions. The expense, negative publicity and potential sanctions associated with any failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial position.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and the Accessibility Guidelines promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “ADA”), all public accommodations, including our properties, must meet various federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Compliance with the ADA’s requirements could require removal of access barriers or other renovations, and non-compliance could result in the imposition of fines or penalties, or awards of damages, against us. Our properties are also subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements. Further, various laws govern our resort management activities, including laws and regulations regarding community association management, public lodging, food and beverage services, liquor licensing, labor, employment, health care, health and safety, accessibility, discrimination, immigration, and the environment (including climate change).
Our lending activities are also subject to a number of laws and regulations, including laws and regulations related to consumer loans, retail installment contracts, mortgage lending, fair debt collection and credit reporting practices, consumer collection practices, contacting debtors by telephone, mortgage disclosure, lender licenses and money laundering. The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, created under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), has emphasized new regulatory focus on areas of our business such as consumer mortgage servicing and debt collection, credit reporting and consumer financial disclosures, all of which affect the manner in which we may provide financing to the purchasers of our VOIs and conduct our lending and loan servicing operations.
In addition, VOIs may in the future be deemed to be securities under federal or state law and therefore subject to applicable securities regulation, which could have a material adverse effect on us due to, among other things, the cost of compliance with such regulations.
The vacation ownership and hospitality industries are highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete successfully.
We compete with various high profile and well-established operators, many of which have greater liquidity and financial resources than us. Many of the world’s most recognized lodging, hospitality and entertainment companies develop and sell timeshare units or VOIs in resort properties. We also compete
15

TABLE OF CONTENTS
with numerous smaller owners and operators of vacation ownership resorts and also face competition from alternative lodging options available to consumers through both traditional methods of delivery as well as new web portals and applications, including private rentals of homes, apartments or condominium units, which have increased in popularity in recent years. Our ability to remain competitive and to attract and retain customers depends on our customers’ satisfaction with our products and services as well as on distinguishing the quality, value, and efficiency of our products and services from those offered by our competitors. Customer dissatisfaction with experiences at our resorts or otherwise as a Vacation Club owner, including due to an inability to use points for desired stays, could result in negative publicity and/or a decrease in sales, or otherwise adversely impact our ability to successfully compete in the vacation ownership and hospitality industries. We may not be able to timely and sufficiently identify and remediate the cause of customer dissatisfaction. Any of these events could materially and adversely impact our operating results and financial condition.
Our business and profitability may be impacted if financing is not available on favorable terms, or at all.
In connection with VOI sales, we generally offer financing to the purchaser of up to 90% of the purchase price of the VOI. However, we incur selling, marketing and administrative cash expenses prior to and concurrent with the sale. These costs, along with the cost of the underlying VOI, generally exceed the down payment we receive at the time of the sale. Accordingly, our ability to borrow against or sell our notes receivable has historically been a critical factor in our continued liquidity, and we therefore have depended on funds from our credit facilities and securitization transactions to finance our operations. If our pledged receivables facilities terminate or expire and we are unable to extend them or replace them with comparable facilities, or if we are unable to continue to participate in securitization-type transactions and “warehouse” facilities on acceptable terms, our liquidity, cash flow and profitability would be materially and adversely affected. Credit market disruptions have in the past adversely impacted the willingness of banks and other finance companies to provide “warehouse” lines of credit for VOI notes receivable and resulted from time to time in the term securitization market being unavailable. Future credit market disruptions may have similar effects or otherwise make obtaining additional and replacement external sources of liquidity more difficult and more costly.
In addition, financing for real estate acquisition and development and the capital markets for corporate debt is cyclical. While we have increased our focus on expanding our fee-based service business and encouraging higher down payments in connection with sales, there is no assurance that these initiatives will enhance our financial position or otherwise be successful in the long-term.
Notwithstanding the initiatives implemented by us to improve our cash position, we anticipate that we will continue to seek and use external sources of liquidity, including funds that we obtain pursuant to additional borrowings under our existing credit facilities, under credit facilities that we may obtain in the future, under securitizations in which we may participate in the future or pursuant to other borrowing arrangements, to:

support our operations and, subject to declaration by our board of directors and contractual limitations, including limitations contained in our credit facilities, pay dividends;

finance the acquisition and development of VOI inventory or property and equipment;

finance a substantial percentage of our sales; and

satisfy our debt and other obligations.
Our ability to service or refinance our indebtedness or to obtain additional financing (including our ability to consummate future term securitizations) depends on the credit markets and on our future performance, which is subject to a number of factors, including the success of our business, our results of operations, leverage, financial condition and business prospects, prevailing interest rates, general economic conditions, the performance of our receivables portfolio, and perceptions about the vacation ownership and real estate industries.
As of December 31, 2016, we had $7.5 million of indebtedness scheduled to become due during 2017. Historically, much of our debt has been renewed or refinanced in the ordinary course of business. However, there is no assurance that we will in the future be able to obtain sufficient external sources of liquidity on
16

TABLE OF CONTENTS
attractive terms, or at all, or otherwise renew, extend or refinance all or any portion of our outstanding debt. Any of these occurrences may have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and financial condition.
In addition, we have and intend to continue to enter into arrangements with third-party developers pursuant to which we sell their VOI inventory for a fee. These arrangements enable us to generate fees from the marketing and sales services we provide, and in certain cases from our provision of management services, without requiring us to fund development and acquisition costs. If these third-party developers are not able to obtain or maintain financing necessary for their development activities or other operations, we may not be able to enter into these fee-based arrangements or have access to their VOI inventory when anticipated, which would adversely impact our results.
We would suffer substantial losses and our liquidity position could be adversely impacted if an increasing number of customers to whom we provide financing default on their obligations.
Adverse conditions in the mortgage industry, including credit availability, borrowers’ financial profiles, prepayment rates and other factors, including those outside our control, may increase the default rates we experience or otherwise negatively impact the performance of our notes receivable. In addition, in recent years, external parties have been discouraging certain borrowers from staying current on their note payments. Although in many cases we may have recourse against a buyer for the unpaid purchase price, certain states have laws that limit our ability to recover personal judgments against customers who have defaulted on their loans or we may determine that the cost of doing so may not be justified. Historically, we have generally not pursued such recourse against our customers. In the case of our notes receivable secured by VOIs, if we are unable to collect the defaulted amount due, we traditionally have terminated the customer’s interest in the Vacation Club and then remarketed the recovered VOI. Irrespective of our remedy in the event of a default, we cannot recover the marketing, selling and administrative costs associated with the original sale and such costs generally exceed the cash received by us from the buyer at the time of the sale. In addition, we will need to incur such costs again in order to resell the VOI. We update our estimates of such future losses each quarter, and consequently, the charge against sales in a particular period may be impacted, favorably or unfavorably, by a change in expected losses related to notes originated in prior periods. In addition, defaults may cause buyers of, or lenders whose loans are secured by, our VOI notes receivable to reduce the amount of availability or advance rates under receivables purchase and credit facilities, or to result in an increase the interest costs associated with such facilities. In such an event, the cost of financing may increase and we may not be able to secure replacement or alternative financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all, which would adversely affect our earnings, financial position and liquidity.
As described above, our VOI notes receivable financing facilities could be adversely affected if a particular VOI note receivable pool fails to meet certain performance ratios, which could occur if the default rate or other credit metrics of the underlying VOI notes receivable deteriorate. In addition, if we offer financing to purchasers of VOIs with terms longer than those generally offered in the industry, we may not be able to securitize those VOI financing receivables. Our ability to sell securities backed by our VOI notes receivable depends on the continued ability and willingness of capital market participants to invest in such securities. Asset-backed securities issued in our term securitization transactions could be downgraded by credit agencies in the future. If a downgrade occurs, our ability to complete other securitization transactions on acceptable terms or at all could be jeopardized, and we could be forced to rely on other potentially more expensive and less attractive funding sources, to the extent available. Similarly, if other operators of vacation ownership products were to experience significant financial difficulties, or if the vacation ownership industry as a whole were to contract, we could experience difficulty in securing funding on acceptable terms. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could adversely impact our business and results, including, without limitation, by reducing the amount of financing we are able to provide to VOI purchasers, which in turn may result in a reduction in VOI sales.
In addition, under the terms of our pledged and receivable sale facilities, we may be required, under certain circumstances, to replace receivables or to pay down the loan to within permitted loan-to-value ratios. Additionally, the terms of our securitization transactions require us to repurchase or replace loans if we breached any of the representations and warranties we made at the time we sold the receivables. These agreements also often include terms providing that in the event of defaults or delinquencies by customers in
17

TABLE OF CONTENTS
excess of stated thresholds, or if other performance thresholds are not met, substantially all of our cash flow from our retained interest in the receivable portfolios sold will be required to be paid to the parties who purchased the receivables from us.
Our existing indebtedness, or indebtedness that we may incur in the future, could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations, and the terms of our indebtedness may limit our activities.
Our level of debt and debt service requirements have several important effects on our operations. Significant debt service cash requirements reduce the funds available for operations and future business opportunities and increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, as well as conditions in the credit markets generally. In addition, our leverage position increases our vulnerability to economic and competitive pressures and may limit funds available for acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, dividends, and other general corporate purposes. Further, the financial covenants and other restrictions contained in indentures, credit agreements and other agreements relating to our indebtedness require us to meet certain financial tests and may limit our ability to, among other things, pay dividends, borrow additional funds, dispose of assets or make investments. If we fail to comply with the terms of our debt instruments, such debt may become due and payable immediately, which would have a material adverse impact on our cash position and financial condition. Significant resources may be required to monitor our compliance with our debt instruments (from a quantitative and qualitative perspective), and such monitoring efforts may not be effective in all cases. We may also incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. If new debt or other liabilities are added to our current debt levels, the related risks that we now face, as described above, could intensify.
To the extent inflationary trends, tightened credit markets or other factors affect interest rates, our debt service costs may increase. If interest rates increased one percentage point, the effect on interest expense related to our variable-rate debt would be an annual increase of  $2.8 million, based on balances as of December 31, 2016.
The ratings of third-party rating agencies could adversely impact our ability to obtain, renew or extend credit facilities, or otherwise raise funds.
Rating agencies from time to time review prior corporate and specific transaction ratings in light of tightened ratings criteria. In December 2016, Standard & Poor’s Rating Services affirmed our ‘B+’ credit rating. Our corporate credit rating is also based, in part, on rating agencies’ speculation about our potential future debt and dividend levels. If rating agencies were to downgrade our corporate credit ratings, our ability to raise funds on favorable terms, or at all, and our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely impacted. See “We would suffer substantial losses and our liquidity position could be adversely impacted if an increasing number of customers to whom we provide financing default on their obligations” above. In addition, if rating agencies downgraded their original ratings on certain bond classes in our securitizations, holders of such bonds may be required to sell bonds in the marketplace, and such sales could occur at a discount, which could impact the perceived value of the bonds and our ability to sell future bonds on favorable terms or at all. While we are not aware of any reasonably likely downgrades to our corporate credit rating or the ratings of bond classes in our securitizations, such ratings changes can occur without advance notice.
Our future success depends on our ability to market our products and services successfully and efficiently and our marketing expenses have increased and may continue to increase in the future.
As previously described, we compete for customers with hotel and resort properties, other vacation ownership resorts and alternative lodging options, including private rentals of homes, apartments or condominium units. The identification of sales prospects and leads, and the marketing of our products and services to them are essential to our success. We incur expenses associated with marketing programs in advance of the closing of sales. If our lead identification and marketing efforts do not yield enough leads or we are unable to successfully convert sales leads to sales, we may be unable to recover the expense of our marketing programs and systems and our business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected. In addition, we are focusing and have increased our marketing efforts on selling to new customers, which typically involves a relatively higher marketing cost compared to sales to existing owners
18

TABLE OF CONTENTS
and therefore have increased and are expected to continue to increase our sales and marketing expenses. If we are not successful in offsetting the cost increase with greater sales revenue, our operating results and financial condition would be adversely impacted. In addition, our marketing efforts are subject to the risk of changing consumer behavior. Changes in consumer behavior may adversely impact the effectiveness of marketing efforts and strategies which we have in place and we may not be able to timely and effectively respond to such changes.
We generate a significant portion of our new sales prospects and leads through our arrangements with various third parties, including Bass Pro and Choice Hotels. VOI sales to prospects and leads generated by our marketing arrangement with Bass Pro accounted for approximately 16% and 15% of our VOI sales volume during the year ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. If our agreement with Bass Pro, or any other significant marketing arrangement, does not generate a sufficient number of prospects and leads or is terminated or limited and not replaced by another source of sales prospects and leads, we may not be able to successfully market and sell our products and services at current sales levels, at anticipated levels or at levels required in order to offset the costs associated with our marketing efforts. On October 9, 2017, Bass Pro raised an issue regarding the computation of the sales commissions paid to it on the sale of VOIs. While we believe that the amount paid was consistent with the terms and intent of the parties’ agreements, the resolution of that issue could result in an increase in our marketing costs as we expect to recognize an approximately $4.8 million expense related to this matter during the fourth quarter of 2017. This would adversely impact our operating results and financial condition.
We may not be successful in maintaining or expanding our capital-light business relationships, or our capital-light activities, including fee-based sales and marketing arrangements, and JIT and secondary market sales activities, and such activities may not be profitable, which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
We offer fee-based marketing, sales, resort management and other services to third-party developers. We have over the last several years continued to expand our capital-light business strategy, which we believe enables us to leverage our expertise in sales and marketing, resort management, mortgage servicing, construction management and title services. We intend to continue our focus on our capital-light business activities as such activities generally produce positive cash flow and typically require less capital investment than our traditional vacation ownership business. We have attempted to structure these activities to cover our costs and generate a profit. Sales of third-party developers’ VOIs must generate sufficient cash to comply with the terms of their financing obligations as well as to pay the fees or commissions due to us. The third-party developers may not be able to obtain or maintain financing necessary to meet their requirements, which could impact our ability to sell the developers’ inventory. While we could attempt to utilize other arrangements, including JIT arrangements, where we would utilize our receivable credit facilities in order to provide fee-based marketing and sales services, this would reduce the credit otherwise available to us and impact profitability. We commenced our capital-light activities largely during the recession in response to poor economic conditions and our fee-based and other capital-light business activities in the future may be adversely impacted by changes in economic conditions. While we perform fee-based sales and marketing services, we sell VOIs in resorts developed by third parties as an interest in the Vacation Club. This subjects us to a number of risks typically associated with selling products developed by others under our own brand name, including litigation risks. Further, these arrangements may expose us to additional risk as we will not control development activities or timing of development completion. If third parties with whom we enter into agreements are not able to fulfill their obligations to us, the inventory we expect to acquire or market and sell on their behalf may not be available when expected or at all, or may not otherwise be within agreed-upon specifications. Further, if these third parties do not perform as expected and we do not have access to the expected inventory or obtain access to inventory from alternative sources on a timely basis, our ability to maintain or increase sales levels would be adversely impacted.
We also sell VOI inventory through secondary market arrangements which require low levels of capital deployment. In connection with secondary market sales, we acquire VOI inventory from our resorts’ HOAs on a non-committed basis in close proximity to the timing of when we intend to sell such VOIs. VOIs purchased from HOAs are typically obtained by the HOAs through foreclosure in connection with maintenance fee defaults and are generally acquired by us at a discount. While we intend to increase our
19

TABLE OF CONTENTS
secondary market sales efforts in the future, we may not be successful in doing so, and these efforts may not result in our achieving anticipated results. Further our secondary market sales activities may subject us to negative publicity, which could adversely impact our reputation and business.
Our results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely impacted if we do not continue to participate in exchange networks and other strategic alliances with third parties or if our customers are not satisfied with the networks in which we participate or our strategic alliances.
We believe that our participation in exchange networks and other strategic alliances and our Traveler Plus program make ownership of our VOIs more attractive by providing owners with the ability to take advantage of vacation experiences in addition to stays at our resorts. Our participation in the Resort Condominiums International, LLC (“RCI”) exchange network allows Vacation Club owners to use their points to stay at over 4,300 participating resorts, based upon availability and the payment of a variable exchange fee. During the year ended December 31, 2016, approximately 9% of Vacation Club owners utilized the RCI exchange network for a stay of two or more nights. We also have an exclusive strategic arrangement with Choice Hotels pursuant to which, subject to payments and conditions, certain of our resorts have been branded as part of Choice Hotels’ Ascend Hotel Collection. For a nominal annual fee and transactional fees, Vacation Club owners may also participate in our Traveler Plus program, which enables them to use their points to access an additional 43 direct exchange resorts, for other vacation experiences such as cruises, and to convert their Vacation Club points into Choice Privileges points. Choice Privileges points can be used for stays at Choice Hotels. In addition, Traveler Plus members can directly use their Vacation Club points for stays at Choice Hotels’ Ascend Hotel Collection properties, a network of historic and boutique hotels in the United States, Canada, Scandinavia and Latin America. We may not be able to or desire to continue to participate in the RCI or direct exchange networks in the future or maintain or extend our other marketing and strategic networks, alliances and relationships. In addition, these networks, alliances and relationships, and our Traveler Plus program, may not continue to operate effectively, and our customers may not be satisfied with them. In addition, we may not be successful in identifying or entering into new strategic relationships in the future. If any of these events should occur, our results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely impacted.
We are subject to certain risks associated with our management of resort properties.
Through our management of resorts and ownership of VOIs, we are subject to certain risks related to the physical condition and operation of the managed resort properties in our network, including:

the presence of construction or repair defects or other structural or building damage at any of these resorts, including resorts we may develop in the future;

any noncompliance with or liabilities under applicable environmental, health or safety regulations or requirements or building permit requirements relating to these resorts;

any damage resulting from natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, floods and windstorms, which may increase in frequency or severity due to climate change or other factors; and

claims by employees, members and their guests for injuries sustained on these resort properties.
Some of these risks may be more significant in connection with the properties for which we recently acquired management agreements, particularly those management agreements which were acquired from operators in financial distress. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs as a result of any of the foregoing, we may be subject to significant costs.
Additionally, a number of U.S. federal, state and local laws, including the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, impose requirements related to access to and use by disabled persons of a variety of public accommodations and facilities. A determination that our managed resorts are subject to, and that they are not in compliance with, these accessibility laws could result in a judicial order requiring compliance, imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. If one of our managed resorts was required to make significant improvements as a result of non-compliance with these accessibility laws, assessments might be needed to fund such improvements, which additional costs
20

TABLE OF CONTENTS
may cause our VOI owners to default on their consumer loans from us or cease making required maintenance fee or assessment payments. Also, to the extent that we hold interests in a particular resort, we would be responsible for our pro rata share of the costs of such improvements. In addition, any new legislation may impose further burdens or restrictions on property owners with respect to access by disabled persons.
The resort properties that we manage are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, natural resources and worker health and safety, including laws and regulations governing and creating liability relating to the management, storage and disposal of hazardous substances and other regulated materials and the cleanup of contaminated sites. The resorts are also subject to various environmental laws and regulations that govern certain aspects of their ongoing operations. These laws and regulations control such things as the nature and volume of wastewater discharges, quality of water supply and waste management practices. To the extent that we hold interests in a particular resort, we would be responsible for our pro rata share of losses sustained by such resort as a result of a violation of any such laws and regulations.
In addition, we may from time to time have disagreements with VOI owners and HOAs resulting from our provision of management services. Failure to resolve such disagreements may result in litigation. Further, disagreements with HOAs could also result in the loss of management contracts, which would negatively affect our revenues and results, and may also have an adverse impact on our ability to generate sales from existing VOI owners.
Our management contracts are typically structured as “cost-plus,” with an initial term of three years and automatic one-year renewals. If a management contract is terminated or not renewed on favorable terms or is renegotiated in a manner adverse to us, our revenues and cash flows would be adversely affected.
If maintenance fees at our resorts and/or Vacation Club dues are required to be increased, our product could become less attractive and our business could be harmed.
The maintenance fees, special assessments and Vacation Club dues that are levied by HOAs and the Vacation Club on VOI owners may increase as the costs to maintain and refurbish properties, and to keep properties in compliance with our standards, increase. Increases in such fees, assessments or dues could negatively affect customer satisfaction with our Vacation Club or otherwise adversely impact VOI sales to both new customers and existing VOI owners.
Our strategic transactions may not be successful and may divert our management’s attention and consume significant resources.
We intend to continue our strategy of selectively pursuing complementary strategic transactions. We may also purchase management contracts, including from resort operators facing financial distress, and purchase VOI inventory at resorts that we do not manage, with the goal of acquiring sufficient VOI ownership at such a resort to become the manager of that resort. The successful execution of this strategy will depend on our ability to identify and enter into the agreements necessary to take advantage of these potential opportunities, and to obtain any necessary financing. We may not be able to do so successfully. In addition, our management may be required to devote substantial time and resources to pursue these opportunities, which may impact their ability to manage our operations effectively.
Acquisitions involve numerous additional risks, including: (i) difficulty in integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired business or assets; (ii) potential disruption of our ongoing business and the distraction of management from our day-to-day operations; (iii) difficulty entering markets in which we have limited or no prior experience and in which competitors have a stronger market position; (iv) difficulty maintaining the quality of services that we have historically provided across new acquisitions; (v) potential legal and financial responsibility for liabilities of the acquired business or assets; (vi) potential overpayment for the acquired business or assets; (vii) increased expenses associated with completing an acquisition and amortizing any acquired intangible assets; and (viii) challenges in implementing uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies throughout an acquired business.
21

TABLE OF CONTENTS
We are dependent on the managers of our affiliated resorts to ensure that those properties meet our customers’ expectations.
In addition to stays at our resorts, Vacation Club owners have access to other resorts and hotels as a result of our participation in exchange programs and our other strategic alliances. Accordingly, Vacation Club owners have access to resorts that we do not manage, own or operate. If the managers of a significant number of those properties were to fail to maintain them in a manner consistent with our standards of quality, we may be subject to customer complaints and our reputation and brand could be damaged. In addition, our agreements with these resorts or their owners may expire, be terminated or not be renewed, or may be renegotiated in a manner adverse to us, and we may be unable to enter into new agreements that provide Vacation Club owners with equivalent access to additional resorts, any or all of which could materially adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition.
The resale market for VOIs could adversely affect our business.
Based on our experience at our resorts and at resorts owned by third parties, we believe that resales of VOIs in the secondary market generally are made at net sales prices below the original customer purchase prices. The relatively lower sales prices are partly attributable to the high marketing and sales costs associated with the initial sales of such VOIs. Accordingly, the initial purchase price of a VOI may be less attractive to prospective buyers and we compete with buyers who seek to resell their VOIs. While VOI resale clearing houses or brokers currently do not have a material impact on our business, the availability of resale VOIs at lower prices, particularly if an organized and liquid secondary market develops, could adversely affect our level of sales and sales prices, which in turn would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to the risks of the real estate market and the risks associated with real estate development, including a decline in real estate values and a deterioration of other conditions relating to the real estate market and real estate development.
Real estate markets are cyclical in nature and highly sensitive to changes in national and regional economic conditions, including:

levels of unemployment;

levels of discretionary disposable income;

levels of consumer confidence;

the availability of financing;

overbuilding or decreases in demand;

interest rates; and

federal, state and local taxation methods.
A deterioration in general economic conditions or in the real estate market would have a material adverse effect on our business.
We expect to seek to acquire more real estate inventory in the future. The availability of land for development of resort properties at favorable prices will be critical to our profitability and the ability to cover our significant selling, general and administrative expenses, cost of capital and other expenses. If we are unable to acquire such land or resort properties at a favorable cost, our results of operations may be materially, adversely impacted. The profitability of our real estate development activities is also impacted by the cost of construction, including the costs of materials and labor and other services. Should the cost of construction materials and services rise, the ultimate cost of our future resorts inventory when developed could increase and have a material, adverse impact on our results of operations. We are also exposed to other risks associated with development activities, including, without limitation:

adverse conditions in the capital markets may limit our ability to raise capital for completion of projects or for development of future properties;
22

TABLE OF CONTENTS

construction delays, zoning and other local, state or federal governmental approvals, cost overruns, lender financial defaults, or natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, volcanic eruptions and oil spills, increasing overall construction costs, affecting timing of project completion or resulting in project cancellations;

any liability or alleged liability or resulting delays associated with latent defects in design or construction of projects we have developed or that we construct in the future adversely affecting our business, financial condition and reputation;

failure by third-party contractors to perform for any reason, exposing us to operational, reputational and financial harm; and

the existence of any title defects in properties we acquire.
In addition, the third-party developers from whom we source VOI inventory as part of our capital-light business strategy are exposed to such development-related risks and, therefore, the occurrence of such risks may adversely impact our ability to acquire VOI inventory from them when expected or at all.
Environmental liabilities, including claims with respect to mold or hazardous or toxic substances, could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and operating results.
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, as well as common law, we may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances, including mold, located on, in or emanating from property that we own, lease or operate, as well as related costs of investigation and property damage at such property. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease our property or to borrow money using such property or receivables generated from the sale of such property as collateral. Noncompliance with environmental, health or safety requirements may require us to cease or alter operations at one or more of our properties. Further, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from violations of environmental regulations or from contamination associated with one or more of our properties.
Our insurance policies may not cover all potential losses.
We maintain insurance coverage for liability, property and other risks with respect to our operations and activities. While we have comprehensive property and liability insurance policies with coverage features and insured limits that we believe are customary, market forces beyond our control may limit the scope of the insurance coverage we can obtain or our ability to obtain coverage at reasonable rates. The cost of insurance may increase and our coverage levels may decrease, which may affect our ability to maintain customary insurance coverage and deductibles at acceptable costs. There is a limit as well as various sub-limits on the amount of insurance proceeds we will receive in excess of applicable deductibles. If an insurable event occurs that affects more than one of our properties, the claims from each affected property may be considered together per policy provisions to determine whether the per occurrence limit, annual aggregate limit or sub-limits, depending on the type of claim, have been reached. If the limits or sub-limits are exceeded, each affected property may only receive a proportional share of the amount of insurance proceeds provided for under the policy. Further, certain types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as earthquakes, hurricanes and floods, terrorist acts, and certain environmental matters, may be outside the general coverage limits of our policies, subject to large deductibles, deemed uninsurable or too cost-prohibitive to justify insuring against. In addition, in the event of a substantial loss, the insurance coverage we carry may not be sufficient to pay the full market value or replacement cost of the affected resort or in some cases may not provide a recovery for any part of a loss. As a result, we could lose some or all of the capital we have invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future marketing, sales or revenue opportunities from the property. Further, we could remain obligated under guarantees or other financial obligations related to the property despite the loss of product inventory, and our VOI owners could be required to contribute toward deductibles to help cover losses.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Adverse outcomes in legal or other regulatory proceedings, including claims of non-compliance with applicable regulations or development-related defects, could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings, which result in significant expenses and devotion of time. In addition, litigation is inherently uncertain and adverse outcomes in the litigation and other proceedings to which we are or may be subject could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results. In addition, liabilities related to our former Bluegreen Communities business that were not assumed by Southstar Development Partners, Inc. (“Southstar”) in connection with Southstar’s purchase of substantially all of the assets which comprised Bluegreen Communities during 2012, including those relating to Bluegreen Communities’ operations prior to the closing of the transaction, remain our responsibility.
We engage third-party contractors to construct our resorts. We also historically engaged third-party contractors to develop the communities within the Bluegreen Communities business. However, customers may assert claims against us for construction defects or other perceived development defects, including, without limitation, structural integrity, the presence of mold as a result of leaks or other defects, water intrusion, asbestos, electrical issues, plumbing issues, road construction, water and sewer defects and defects in the engineering of amenities. In addition, certain state and local laws may impose liability on property developers with respect to development defects discovered in the future. We could have to accrue a significant portion of the cost to repair such defects in the quarter when such defects arise or when the repair costs are reasonably estimable.
Costs associated with litigation, including claims for development-related defects, and the outcomes thereof could adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition and operating results.
A failure to maintain the integrity of internal or customer data could result in damage to our reputation and subject us to costs, fines, or lawsuits.
Our operations and activities require the collection and retention of large volumes of internal and customer data, including credit card numbers and other personally identifiable information of our customers and employees. The integrity and protection of that customer, employee and company data is critical to us. If that data is inaccurate or incomplete, we could make faulty decisions. Our customers and employees also have a high expectation that we will adequately protect their personal information. The information, security and privacy requirements imposed by governmental regulation are increasingly demanding. Our systems may not be able to satisfy these changing requirements and employee and customer expectations, or may require significant additional investments or time in order to do so. Efforts to hack or breach security measures, failures of systems or software to operate as designed or intended, viruses, operator error, or inadvertent releases of data all threaten our information systems and records. Our reliance on computer, Internet-based and mobile systems and communications and the frequency and sophistication of efforts by hackers to gain unauthorized access to such systems have increased significantly in recent years. Theft, loss, or fraudulent use of customer, employee, or company data could adversely impact our reputation and could result in remedial and other expenses, fines, or litigation and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our technology requires updating, the cost involved in updating the technology may be significant, and the failure to keep pace with developments in technology could impair our operations or competitive position.
The vacation ownership and hospitality industries require the utilization of technology and systems, including technology utilized for sales and marketing, mortgage servicing, property management, brand assurance and compliance, and reservation systems. This technology requires continuous updating and refinements, including technology required to remain competitive and to comply with the legal requirements such as privacy regulations and requirements established by third parties. We are taking steps to update our information technology platform, which has required, and is likely to continue to require, significant capital expenditures. Older systems which have not yet been updated may increase the risk of operational inefficiencies, financial loss and non-compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements and we may not be successful in updating such systems in the time frame or at the cost anticipated. Further, as a result of the rapidly changing technological environment, systems which we have
24

TABLE OF CONTENTS
put in place or expect to put in place in the near term may become outdated requiring new technology, and we may not be able to replace those systems as quickly as our competition or within budgeted costs and time frames. Further, we may not achieve the benefits that may have been anticipated from any new technology or system.
Our intellectual property rights, and the intellectual property rights of our business partners, are valuable, and the failure to protect those rights could adversely affect our business.
Our intellectual property rights, including existing and future trademarks, trade secrets and copyrights, are and will continue to be valuable and important assets of our business. We believe that our proprietary technology, as well as our other technologies and business practices, are competitive advantages and that any duplication by competitors would harm our business. The measures we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be sufficient or effective. Additionally, intellectual property laws and contractual restrictions may not prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property. Finally, even if we are able to successfully protect our intellectual property, others may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technology. We also generate a significant portion of our new sales prospects and leads through arrangements with third parties, including Bass Pro. The failure by these third parties to protect their intellectual property rights could also harm our business.
The loss of the services of our key management and personnel could adversely affect our business.
Our ability to successfully implement our business strategy will depend on our ability to attract and retain experienced and knowledgeable management and other professional staff, and we may not be successful in doing so. If our efforts to retain and attract key management and other personnel are unsuccessful, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely impacted.
There are inherent uncertainties involved in estimates, judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Any changes in estimates, judgments and assumptions used could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP involve making estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions include, but are not limited to, those related to future cash flows, which in turn are based upon expectations of future performance given current and projected forecasts of the economy in general and the real estate markets. If any estimates, judgments or assumptions change in the future, including in the event that our performance does not otherwise meet our expectations, we may be required to record impairment charges against our earnings, which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. In addition, GAAP requirements as to how certain estimates are made may result, for example, in asset valuations which ultimately would not be realized if we were to attempt to sell the asset.
Risks Related to This Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock
There is no prior public market for our common stock prior to this offering, and an active trading market for our common stock may not develop following this offering.
Since we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge in April 2013, there has been no public market for our common stock. We cannot assure you that an active or orderly trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained after this offering. It is anticipated that, immediately following this offering, Woodbridge, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX) will continue to hold   % of our common stock. If an active market does not develop, you may have difficulty selling any shares of our common stock that you purchase in this offering and the value of our common stock may be materially adversely affected. The initial public offering price for our common stock will be determined by negotiations between us, the selling shareholder and the underwriters, and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the open market following this offering. The market price of our common stock may decline below the initial public offering price, and you may not be able to sell any shares of our common
25

TABLE OF CONTENTS
stock at or above the price you paid in this offering, or at all. An inactive and illiquid trading market may also impair our ability to raise capital, if and to the extent desired, including if necessary to fund operations or acquisitions, and impair our ability to acquire companies or properties or other assets by using our common stock as consideration.
Our stock price may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may lose part or all of your investment.
After this offering, the market price for our common stock is likely to be volatile, in part because our common stock was not publicly traded prior to this offering, and such volatility may be exacerbated by our relatively small public float. In addition, the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including those discussed in this “Risk Factors” section and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” as well as the following:

the failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock after this offering or changes in financial estimates by analysts;

the inability to meet the financial estimates of analysts who follow our common stock;

strategic actions by us or our competitors;

announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, joint marketing relationships, joint ventures or other transactions;

introduction of new products or services by us or our competitors;

variations in our quarterly operating results and those of our competitors, including due to seasonal fluctuations;

additions or departures of key personnel;

general economic and stock market conditions;

risks related to our business and industry, including those discussed above;

changes in conditions or trends in our industry, markets or customers;

regulatory and legal investigations and developments;

political developments;

changes in accounting principles;

changes in tax legislation and regulations;

litigation;

terrorist acts;

the expiration of contractual lock-up or market standoff agreements;

future sales of our common stock or other securities;

defaults under agreements governing our indebtedness; and

investor perceptions with respect to our common stock relative to other investment alternatives.
The stock markets in general have often experienced volatility that has sometimes been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been brought against that company. We may become involved in this type of litigation in the future. Litigation of this type may be expensive to defend and may divert our management’s attention and resources from the operation of our business.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business and our reputation.
As a Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reporting company, we will be required to, among other things, maintain a system of effective internal control over financial reporting. We will also be required to provide annual management reports on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting commencing with our second Annual Report on Form 10-K following this offering. In addition, once we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K (but not earlier than our second Annual Report on Form 10-K following this offering) will be required to include independent registered public accounting firm attestations of our internal control over financial reporting. Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that needs to be re-evaluated frequently. We have dedicated a significant amount of time and resources to implement our internal financial and accounting controls and procedures. Substantial work and expenses may continue to be required to implement, document, assess, test and remediate our system of internal controls.
If our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, if we are not able to issue our financial statements in a timely manner or if we are not able to obtain the required audit or review of our financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm in a timely manner, we will not be able to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the SEC and the listing requirements of the NYSE. If these events occur, the listing of our common stock on the NYSE could be suspended or terminated and our stock price could materially suffer. In addition, we or members of our management could be subject to investigation and sanction by the SEC and other regulatory authorities and to shareholder lawsuits, which could impose significant additional costs on us and divert management attention.
We will incur increased costs as a result of becoming a public company.
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses that we have not incurred as a private company, including costs associated with public company reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), the Dodd-Frank Act, the listing requirements of the NYSE and other applicable securities laws and regulations. The expenses incurred by public companies generally for reporting and corporate governance purposes have been increasing. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult or costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. If these requirements divert the attention of our management and personnel from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as our executive officers.
We will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds of this offering and may not use them effectively.
Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds received by us from this offering. We may use the proceeds for any of the purposes described in “Use of Proceeds” or other purposes as determined from time to time by our management. You will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could adversely affect our ability to operate and grow our business.
If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the shares you purchase, and you will suffer additional dilution if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares.
If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution of  $          per share, representing the difference between the assumed initial public offering price
27

TABLE OF CONTENTS
of  $          per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus) and our pro forma net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this offering. Moreover, to the extent the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares, you will incur further dilution. See “Dilution.”
Your percentage ownership in us may be diluted by future stock issuances.
Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws, our board of directors will have the authority, without any action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or any part of our authorized but unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock. We may issue such capital stock to meet a number of our business needs, including funding any potential acquisitions or other strategic transactions, or pursuant to any equity compensation plans that we may adopt in the future. Stock issuances would reduce your percentage ownership of our Company and, in the case of issuances of preferred stock, may result in your interest in us being subject to the prior rights of holders of that preferred stock.
We may not pay dividends on our common stock in the amounts anticipated, when anticipated, or at all.
We intend to pay quarterly cash dividends on our common stock of  $          per share. However, any dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be subject to applicable law and contractual restrictions, including restrictions contained in our credit facilities, and our financial condition, results of operations, available cash, capital requirements, general business conditions and prospects, and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Accordingly, we may not make dividend payments on our common stock in the amount or when anticipated, or at all.
Provisions in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws, as well as provisions of Florida law, might discourage, delay or prevent a change in control or changes in our management and/or depress the trading price of our common stock.
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws will contain, and Florida law contains, provisions that may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that shareholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares of our common stock, and attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our management. These provisions include those which:

grant our board of directors the authority to issue additional shares of common stock or preferred stock and to fix the relative rights and preferences of the preferred stock (in each case, without any action or vote of our shareholders), which could be used for, among other things, the adoption of a shareholder rights plan if determined to be advisable by our board of directors;

permit our board of directors to establish the number of directors and fill any vacancies and newly-created directorships; and

specify advance notice procedures that must be complied with by shareholders in order to make shareholder proposals or nominate directors.
As a Florida corporation, we are also subject to the provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act (the “FBCA”), including those limiting the voting rights of  “control shares.” Under the FBCA, subject to certain exceptions, including mergers and acquisitions effected in accordance with the FBCA, the holder of  “control shares” of a Florida corporation that has (i) 100 or more shareholders, (ii) its principal place of business, its principal office or substantial assets in Florida and (iii) either more than 10% of its shareholders residing in Florida, more than 10% of its shares owned by Florida residents or 1,000 shareholders residing in Florida, will not have the right to vote those shares unless the acquisition of the shares was approved by a majority of each class of voting securities of the corporation, excluding those shares held by interested persons. “Control shares” are defined in the FBCA as shares acquired by a person, either directly or indirectly, that when added to all other shares of the issuing corporation owned by that person, would entitle that person to exercise, either directly or indirectly, voting power within any of the
28

TABLE OF CONTENTS
following ranges: (i) 20% or more but less than 33% of all voting power of the corporation’s voting securities; (ii) 33% or more but less than a majority of all voting power of the corporation’s voting securities; or (iii) a majority or more of all of the voting power of the corporation’s voting securities.
Any provision of our governance documents or Florida law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our shareholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our common stock.
Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws will have an exclusive forum provision, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, and a fee-shifting provision, which may discourage the initiation of claims against us or our directors, officers or other employees.
Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws have an exclusive forum provision providing that, unless our board of directors consents to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court located in Palm Beach County, Florida (or, if such Circuit Court does not have jurisdiction, another Circuit Court located within Florida or, if no Circuit Court located within Florida has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the Southern District of Florida) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of our Company; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or our shareholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees arising pursuant to any provision of the FBCA, our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (in each case, as amended or amended and restated from time to time); or (iv) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Florida (each, a “Covered Proceeding”). Further, the exclusive forum provision provides that if any Covered Proceeding is filed in a court other than a court located within Florida in the name of any shareholder, then such shareholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Florida in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the exclusive forum provision and (ii) having service of process made upon such shareholder in any such enforcement action by service upon such shareholder’s counsel in the action as agent for such shareholder. Unless waived, the exclusive forum provision may limit our shareholders’ ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find the exclusive forum provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws also provide us and our officers, directors and other employees with the right, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (and unless our board of directors consents to the contrary), to reimbursement of all amounts incurred by us and our officers, directors and other employees, including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and other litigation expenses, from any person or entity that initiates or asserts any claim or counterclaim against us or any of our officers, directors or other employees, or joins, offers substantial assistance to or has a direct financial interest in any such claim or counterclaim, if such person or entity does not obtain a judgment on the merits that substantially achieves, in substance and amount, the full remedy sought. This fee-shifting provision is intended to eliminate or decrease nuisance and frivolous litigation. We intend to apply the fee-shifting provision broadly to all claims and counterclaims, including those relating to derivative actions and other Covered Proceedings, claims under the federal securities laws and claims related to this offering (collectively, “Claims”). In addition, the fee-shifting provision applies to any person or entity which initiates, asserts, joins in, offers substantial assistance to, or has a direct financial interest in, any Claim, including current and prior shareholders (each, a “Claiming Party”). The court issuing a judgment on the merits of a Claim may determine whether the Claiming Party obtained a judgment on the merits that substantially achieves, in substance and amount, the full remedy sought. We intend to interpret this language as broadly as possible and believe it is a very high standard. Specifically, we believe that this standard would require, and we would argue to a court to interpret this standard to require, the Claiming Party to prevail on virtually
29

TABLE OF CONTENTS
everything sought in the Claim in order to avoid its reimbursement obligations. As a result, the fee-shifting provision may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees, including those that might otherwise benefit us or our shareholders, or increase the costs thereof to any Claiming Party.
Future sales of our common stock, or the perception in the public markets that these sales may occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
The market price of our common stock could decline significantly as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market after this offering. These sales, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.
Upon the consummation of this offering, we will have           outstanding shares of common stock. The shares of common stock offered in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), except for any shares of common stock that may be held or acquired by our directors, executive officers and other affiliates, the sale of which will be restricted under the Securities Act. If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or if the public perceives that such sales could occur, there could be an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business.
In connection with this offering, we, our directors and executive officers and the selling shareholder have agreed with the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell any shares of our common stock for 180 days after the date of this prospectus without the prior consent of the representatives of the underwriters. The representatives of the underwriters may, in their sole discretion, release all or any portion of the shares of our common stock from such lock-up restrictions. See “Underwriting.” Upon the expiration or waiver of such lock-up agreements, the shares covered thereby will be eligible for resale, subject to volume, manner of sale and other limitations set forth in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As restrictions on resale end, the market price of our common stock could drop significantly if the holders of our common stock sell the shares or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.
Also in the future, we may issue shares of our common stock in connection with investments or acquisitions or pursuant to any equity compensation plans that we may adopt. The number of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition or pursuant to equity compensation plans could be material. Any issuance of additional shares of our common stock would result in additional dilution to you.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price or trading volume of our common stock to decline. Moreover, if one or more of our analysts who cover our company downgrades our common stock, including if our operating results do not meet their or the investor community’s expectations, our stock price could decline.
We are an “emerging growth company” and will be able to avail ourselves of reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, which may make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and may remain an emerging growth company until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of this offering, we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue, we have more than $700.0 million in market value of our stock held by non-affiliates (and we have been a public company for at least 12 months and have filed one Annual Report on Form 10-K) or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt securities over a three-year period. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted, and intend, to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that
30

TABLE OF CONTENTS
are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include reduced financial disclosure, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, exemptions from the requirements to hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation and golden parachute payments, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements. In this prospectus, we have not included all of the executive compensation-related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
Woodbridge’s controlling position in our common stock will limit your ability to influence corporate matters, including the outcome of director elections and other matters requiring shareholder approval.
Woodbridge holds 100% of our outstanding common stock and will hold approximately   % of our outstanding common stock immediately following this offering (or   % if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full). As a result of such ownership position, Woodbridge will be able to exercise control over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors, amendments of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control or changes in management and will make the approval of certain transactions impossible without the support of Woodbridge. Woodbridge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX). Alan B. Levan, our Chairman and the Chairman of BBX Capital, and John E. Abdo, our and BBX Capital’s Vice Chairman, may be deemed to control BBX Capital by virtue of their collective ownership of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of BBX Capital. The interests of Woodbridge, BBX Capital and Mr. Alan Levan and Mr. Abdo may conflict with our interests or the interests of our other shareholders, including that they may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance BBX Capital’s investment, through Woodbridge, in us or improve BBX Capital’s financial condition, even though such transactions might involve risks to us. In addition, this concentration of ownership could deprive you of an opportunity to receive a premium for your shares of our common stock as part of a sale of our Company and ultimately might affect the market price of our common stock.
Following this offering, we will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE and, as a result, will qualify for, and may rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements applicable to non-controlled companies.
We have applied to list our common stock for trading on the NYSE. Following this offering, as a result of Woodbridge’s controlling position with respect to our common stock, we will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE. As a “controlled company,” we may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements set forth in the listing standards of the NYSE, including:

the requirement that a majority of our board of directors consists of independent directors under the NYSE listing standards;

the requirement that nominating and corporate governance matters be decided solely by a nominating/corporate governance committee consisting of independent directors under the NYSE listing standards; and

the requirement that employee and officer compensation matters be decided by a compensation committee consisting of independent directors under the NYSE listing standards.
While we currently do not intend to utilize any of the exceptions, we may, in our board of directors’ discretion, choose to utilize one or more of the exceptions in the future. In that case, our shareholders will not have the same protections as a shareholder of a company that is subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.

risks associated with our relationships with third-party developers, including that third-party developers who provide VOIs to be sold by us pursuant to fee-based services or JIT arrangements may not provide VOIs when planned and that third-party developers may not fulfill their obligations to us or to the HOAs that maintain the resorts they developed;

risks associated with legal and other regulatory proceedings, including claims of noncompliance with applicable regulations or for development related defects, and the impact they may have on our financial condition and operating results;

audits of our or our subsidiaries’ tax returns, including that they may result in the imposition of additional taxes;

the updating of, and developments with respect to, technology, including the cost involved in updating our technology and the impact that any failure to keep pace with developments in technology could have on our operations or competitive position; and

other risks and uncertainties inherent to our business, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.
These and other risk factors disclosed in this prospectus are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of the forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of the forward-looking statements.
Given these uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

In addition, past performance may not be indicative of future results, and comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, and all such information should only be viewed as historical data.
You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed with the SEC as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance, and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We estimate that our net proceeds from this offering, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately $     million, assuming an initial public offering price of  $     per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus). If the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full, we estimate that our net proceeds from this offering, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately $     million. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling shareholder.
A $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering price of  $     per share would increase or decrease the net proceeds that we receive from this offering by approximately $     million, assuming that the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.
We intend to use the proceeds from this offering for working capital, potential acquisitions and development of VOI properties, sales and marketing activities, general and administrative matters, other capital expenditures and general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness.
Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the proceeds from this offering, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flow from operations, the availability and suitability of acquisition and development opportunities, and the availability and terms of alternative financing sources. Pending the use of proceeds described above, we intend to invest the proceeds from this offering in short-term, interest-bearing investment-grade securities, certificates of deposit, bank deposits, or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

If you invest in our common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the initial public offering price per share of our common stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately following this offering.
As of June 30, 2017, (i) our net tangible book value, which equals our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, was approximately $255.5 million, and (ii) our pro forma net tangible book value per share, which represents our net tangible book value divided by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding after giving effect to the filing and effectiveness of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, was $     per share.
After giving effect to the sale by us of shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of  $     per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus) and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2017 would have been $     million, or $     per share. This amount represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of  $     per share to our existing shareholder and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value of  $     per share to investors purchasing common stock in this offering at the assumed initial public offering price.
The following table illustrates this dilution:

Dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering
$
A $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering price of  $     per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus) would increase or decrease our pro forma net tangible book value per share immediately following this offering by $     and dilution per share to investors in this offering by $       , assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.
If the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full, the pro forma net tangible book value per share immediately following this offering would be $     per share, and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering would be $     per share.
The following table presents, on a pro forma basis as described above, as of June 30, 2017, the number of shares purchased from us, the total consideration paid to us and the average price per share paid by our existing shareholder and to be paid to us by investors purchasing shares in this offering at an assumed offering price of  $    per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus), before deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus, particularly in “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Executive Overview
We are a leading vacation ownership company that markets and sells VOIs and manages resorts in top leisure and urban destinations. Our resort network includes 42 Club Resorts (resorts in which owners in our Vacation Club have the right to use most of the units in connection with their VOI ownership) and 24 Club Associate Resorts (resorts in which owners in our Vacation Club have the right to use a limited number of units in connection with their VOI ownership). Our Club Resorts and Club Associate Resorts are primarily located in popular, high-volume, “drive-to” vacation locations, including Orlando, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, among others. Through our points-based system, the approximately 210,000 owners in our Vacation Club have the flexibility to stay at units available at any of our resorts and have access to almost 11,000 other hotels and resorts through partnerships and exchange networks. We have a robust sales and marketing platform supported by exclusive marketing relationships with nationally-recognized consumer brands, such as Bass Pro and Choice Hotels, which drive sales within our core demographic.
VOI Sales and Financing
Our primary business is the marketing and selling of deeded VOIs, developed either by us or third parties. Customers who purchase these VOIs receive an annual allotment of points, which can be redeemed for stays at one of our resorts or at 11,000 other hotels and resorts available through partnerships and exchange networks. Historically, VOI companies have funded the majority of the capital investment in connection with resort development with internal resources and acquisition and development funding. In 2009, we began selling VOIs on behalf of third-party developers and have successfully diversified from a business focused on capital-intensive resort development to a flexible model with a balanced mix of developed and capital-light inventory. Our relationships with third-party developers enable us to generate fees from the sales and marketing of their VOIs without incurring the significant upfront capital investment generally associated with resort acquisition or development. While sales of acquired or developed inventory typically result in greater Adjusted EBITDA contribution, fee-based sales require no initial investment or development financing risk. Both acquired or developed VOI sales and fee-based VOI sales drive recurring, incremental and long-term fee streams by adding owners to our Vacation Club and new resort management contracts. In conjunction with our VOI sales, we also generate interest income by originating loans for qualified purchasing owners. Collateralized by the underlying VOIs, our loans are generally structured as 10-year, fully-amortizing loans with a fixed interest rate ranging from 12% to 18% per annum. As of December 31, 2016, the weighted-average interest rate on our VOI notes receivable was 15.7%. In addition, we earn fees for various other services that produce recurring, predictable and long-term revenue. For example, we provide title and escrow services for fees in connection with the closing of VOI sales, and we generate fees for mortgage servicing and construction management services.
Resort Operations and Club Management
We enter into management agreements with the HOAs that maintain most of the resorts and earn fees for providing management services to those HOAs and our approximately 210,000 Vacation Club owners. These resort management services include oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance, and certain accounting and administration functions. Our management contracts yield highly predictable, recurring cash flows and do not have the traditional risks associated with hotel management contracts that are linked to daily rate or occupancy. Our management contracts are typically structured as “cost-plus,” with an initial term of three years and automatic one-year renewals. In connection with the management services provided
42

TABLE OF CONTENTS
to the Vacation Club, we manage the reservation system and provide owner, billing and collection services. We have not lost any of the 42 Club Resort management contracts. In addition to resort and club management services, we earn fees for various other services that produce recurring, predictable and long term-revenue including construction management services to third-party developers.
Principal Components Affecting our Results of Operations
Principal Components of Revenues
Fee-Based Sales.    Represent sales of third-party VOIs where we are paid a commission.
JIT Sales.    Represent sales of VOIs acquired from third parties in close proximity to when we intend to sell such VOIs.
Secondary Market Sales.    Represent sales of VOIs acquired from HOAs or other owners, typically in connection with maintenance fee defaults. This inventory is generally purchased at a greater discount to retail price compared to developed VOI sales and JIT sales.
Developed VOI Sales.    Represent sales of VOIs in resorts that we have developed or acquired (excluding inventory acquired through JIT and secondary market arrangements).
Financing Revenue.    Represents revenue from the financing of VOI sales, which includes interest income and loan servicing fees. We also earn fees from mortgage servicing provided to certain third-party developers to purchasers of their VOIs.
Resort Operations and Club Management Revenue.    Represents recurring fees from managing the Vacation Club and transaction fees for certain resort amenities and certain member exchanges. We also earn recurring management fees under our management agreements with HOAs for day-to-day management services, including oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance, and certain accounting and administration functions.
Other Fee-Based Services . Represents revenue earned from various other services that produce recurring, predictable and long-term revenue, such as title services.
Principal Components of Expenses
Cost of VOIs Sold.    Represents the cost at which our owned VOIs sold during the period were relieved from inventory. In addition to inventory from our VOI business, our owned VOIs also include those that were acquired by us under JIT and secondary market arrangements. Compared to the cost of our developed inventory, VOIs acquired in connection with JIT arrangements typically have a relatively higher associated cost of sales as a percentage of sales while those acquired in connection with secondary market arrangements typically have a lower cost of sales as a percentage of sales as secondary market inventory is generally obtained from HOAs at a significant discount to retail price. Cost of VOIs sold as a percentage of sales of VOIs varies between periods based on the relative costs of the specific VOIs sold in each period and the size of the point packages of the VOIs sold (due to offered volume discounts, including consideration of cumulative sales to existing owners). Additionally, the effect of changes in estimates under the relative sales value method, including estimates of projected sales, future defaults, upgrades and incremental revenue from the resale of repossessed VOI inventory, are reflected on a retrospective basis in the period the change occurs. Cost of sales will typically be favorably impacted in periods where a significant amount of secondary market VOI inventory is acquired and the resulting change in estimate is recognized. While we believe that there is additional inventory that can be obtained through the secondary market at favorable costs to us in the future, there can be no assurance that such inventory will be available as expected.
Net Carrying Cost of VOI Inventory.    Represents the maintenance fees and developer subsidies for unsold VOI inventory paid or accrued to the HOAs that maintain the resorts. We attempt to offset this expense, to the extent possible, by generating revenue from renting our VOIs and through our sampler programs. We net such revenue from this expense item.
Selling and Marketing Expense.    Represents costs incurred to sell and market VOIs, including costs relating to marketing and incentive programs, tours, and related wages and sales commissions. Revenues from vacation package sales are netted against selling and marketing expenses.
43

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Financing Expense.    Represents financing interest expense related to our receivable-backed debt, amortization of the related debt issuance costs and other expenses incurred in providing financing and servicing loans. Additionally, we include costs incurred to service our loans and loans held by certain third-party developers.
Resort Operations and Club Management Expense.    Represents costs incurred to manage resorts and the Vacation Club, including payroll and related costs and other administrative costs to the extent not reimbursed by the Vacation Club or HOAs.
General and Administrative Expense.    Primarily represents compensation expense for personnel supporting our business segments, professional fees (including consulting, audit and legal fees), and administrative and related expenses.
Key Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management
Sales of VOIs.    Represent sales of our owned VOIs, including developed VOIs, those obtained on a just-in-time basis, and those acquired through secondary market arrangements, reduced by equity trade allowances and an estimate of uncollectible VOI notes receivable. In addition to the above-described factors impacting system-wide sales of VOIs, net, sales of VOIs are impacted by the proportion of system-wide sales of VOIs, net sold on behalf of third-parties on a commission basis, which are not included in sales of VOIs.
System-wide Sales of VOIs, net.    Represents all sales of VOIs, whether owned by us or a third party immediately prior to the sale. Sales of VOIs owned by third parties are transacted as sales of VOIs in our Vacation Club through the same selling and marketing process we use to sell our VOI inventory.
Guest Tours.    Represents the number of sales presentations given at our sales centers during the period.
Sale to Tour Conversion Ratio.    Represents the rate at which guest tours are converted to sales of VOIs and is calculated by dividing guest tours by number of VOI sales transactions.
Average Sales Volume Per Guest (“VPG”).    Represents the sales attributable to tours at our sales locations and is calculated by dividing VOI sales by guest tours. We consider VPG to be an important operating measure because it measures the effectiveness of our sales process, combining the average transaction price with the sale-to-tour conversion ratio.
Adjusted EBITDA.    We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings, or net income, before taking into account interest income (excluding interest earned on VOI notes receivable), interest expense (excluding interest expense incurred on debt secured by our VOI notes receivable), income and franchise taxes, loss (gain) on assets held for sale, depreciation and amortization, and amounts attributable to the non-controlling interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations (in which we own a 51% interest). For purposes of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, no adjustments were made for interest income earned on our VOI notes receivable or the interest expense incurred on debt that is secured by such notes receivable because they are both considered to be part of the operations of our business.
We consider our total Adjusted EBITDA and our Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of our operating performance, and it is used by us to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by companies, lenders, investors and others because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity, including cash flow, derived in accordance with GAAP, or to any other method of analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of using Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool include, without limitation, that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (i) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (ii) our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness (other than as noted above); (iii) our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; (iv) historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; or (v) the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations or performance. Further, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to definitions of Adjusted EBITDA or other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Sales of VOIs.    Sales of VOIs were $111.2 million and $124.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Gross sales of VOIs were reduced by $21.5 million and $24.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for estimated future uncollectible notes receivable. Estimated losses for uncollectible VOI notes receivable vary with the amount of financed sales during the period and changes in our estimates of future note receivable performance for existing and newly originated loans. In connection with our quarterly analysis of our loan portfolio, which consists of

TABLE OF CONTENTS
evaluating the expected future performance of loans with remaining lives up to ten years, we may identify factors or trends that change our estimate of future loan performance and result in a change in the allowance for credit losses. Our estimated uncollectible VOI notes receivable as a percentage of gross sales of VOIs were 16% during both of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. While we believe our notes receivable are adequately reserved at this time, actual defaults may differ from the estimates and the reserve may not be adequate.
System-wide sales of VOIs, net.    System-wide sales of VOIs, net were $292.5 million and $286.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The growth in system-wide sales is primarily attributable to an 18% increase in the average sales price per transaction, partially offset by a decrease of 6% in the number of guest tours as well as an 11% decrease in sale-to-tour conversion ratio. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we implemented screening of the credit qualifications of potential marketing guests to create a more efficient marketing and selling process, resulting in a higher average transaction price, higher average sales volume per guest, and a lower amount of tours. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2016, we temporarily increased our minimum transaction size requirements. In the 2017 period compared to the 2016 period, the higher average sales transaction price, as well as the temporary increase in the minimum transaction size, resulted in a lower sale-to-tour conversion ratio. In July 2017, we implemented new collateral materials to support our customers purchasing lower-point VOIs and we reinstated our former lower minimum transaction size requirements, and we expect this will result in an increase in our sales-to-tour conversion ratio, although there can be no assurances.
Included in system-wide sales of VOIs, net are fee-based sales, JIT sales, secondary market sales and developed VOI sales. Sales by category are tracked based on which deeded VOI is conveyed in each transaction. We manage which VOIs are sold based on several factors, including the needs of third-party developer clients, our debt service requirements and default resale requirements under term securitization and similar transactions. These factors contribute to fluctuations in the amount of sales by category from period to period.
The following table sets forth certain information for system-wide sales of VOIs, net for the periods indicated. The information is provided before giving effect to the deferral of our VOI sales in accordance with GAAP:

Cost of VOIs Sold.    During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, cost of VOIs sold were $4.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively, and represented 4% and 11% of sales of VOIs, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we implemented several changes including a risk-based financing program and a revised VOI pricing matrix. These changes increased the average selling price of VOIs by approximately 4%. As a result of this pricing change, we also increased our estimate of total gross margin generated on the sale of our VOI inventory under the relative sales value method, accordingly during the second quarter of 2017, we recognized a benefit to cost of VOI sold of  $5.1 million.
Fee-Based Sales Commission Revenue.    During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we sold $159.8 million and $137.7 million, respectively, of third-party VOI inventory under commission arrangements and earned sales and marketing commissions of  $109.1 million and $94.3 million, respectively, in connection with those sales. The increase in the sales of third-party developer inventory on a commission basis during the 2017 period was due primarily to the factors described above related to the increase in system-wide sales of VOIs, net. We earned an average sales and marketing commission of 68% and 69% during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in sales and marketing commissions as a percentage of fee-based sales commission revenue is primarily related to an incentive commission of  $1.7 million earned in June 2016 related to the achievement of certain sales thresholds pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable contractual arrangement, with no such comparable incentive commission earned in the 2017 period.
Financing Revenue, Net of Financing Expense- Sales of VOIs.    During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, financing revenue, net of financing expense related to the sale of VOIs were $30.8 million and $28.7 million, respectively. The increase is a result of our lower cost of borrowing and an increase in our VOI notes receivable portfolio. Revenues from mortgage servicing of  $2.4 million and $1.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, are included in financing revenue, net of mortgage servicing expenses of  $2.8 million and $3.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Other Fee-Based Services– Title Operations, net.    During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, revenue from our title operations was $8.6 million and $6.6 million, respectively, which was partially offset by expenses directly related to our title operations of  $2.4 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
Net Carrying Cost of VOI Inventory.    The carrying cost of our inventory was $8.4 million and $8.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which was partly offset by rental and sampler revenues of  $6.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively. The decrease in carrying costs is a result of our capital-light business activities, and an increase in rental and sampler revenues.
Selling and Marketing Expenses.    Selling and marketing expenses were $153.4 million and $147.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As a percentage of system-wide sales of VOIs, net, selling and marketing expenses increased to 52% during the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 51% during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in selling and marketing expense as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the impact of the implementation of the screening of credit qualifications of potential marketing guests, partially offset by an increase in the average sales volume per guest.
General and Administrative Expenses- Sales and Marketing Operations.    General and administrative expenses, which represent expenses directly attributable to sales and marketing operations were $12.9 million and $12.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As a percentage of system-wide sales of VOIs, net, general and administrative expenses directly attributable to sales and marketing operations were 4% during both the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Resort Operations and Club Management Revenue.    Resort operations and club management revenue increased 6% during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. We provide management services to the Vacation Club and to a majority of the HOAs of the resorts within the Vacation Club. In connection with our management services, we also manage the Vacation Club reservation system, provide services to owners and perform billing and collections services to the Vacation Club and certain HOAs. The resort properties we managed increased from 46 as of June 30, 2016 to 47 as of June 30, 2017 due to the addition of a new resort under management in Charleston. Resort operations and club management revenues increased during the 2017 period compared to the 2016 period primarily as a result of increases in the number of managed resorts and the number of owners in the Vacation Club. Additionally, we generate revenues from our Traveler Plus program, and food and beverage and other retail operations at certain Club Resorts. We also earn commissions from providing rental services to third parties and fees from managing the construction activities of certain of our fee-based third party-developer clients.
Resort Operations and Club Management Expense.    During the six months ended June 30, 2017, resort operations and club management expenses increased 12%, respectively, compared to six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase is primarily due to the increased cost of providing management services as a result of the higher service volumes described above and the higher costs associated with programs to VOI owners.

The decrease was primarily related to special bonuses totaling $10.0 million which were paid to certain of our employees in June 2016, with no such comparable bonus paid in the 2017 period. In addition, personnel costs and consulting fees decreased but were partially offset by higher information technology related costs.

Sales of VOIs.    Sales of VOIs were $266.1 million and $259.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In addition to the factors described below impacting system-wide sales of VOIs, net, sales of VOIs are impacted by the proportion of system-wide sales of VOIs, net sold on behalf of third parties on a commission basis, which are not included in sales of VOIs.

System-wide sales of VOIs, net.    System-wide sales of VOIs, net were $605.4 million and $552.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the number of tours increased 16% and the number of new prospect tours increased 22% compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. This increase reflects efforts to expand marketing to new sales prospects. The average sales price per transaction increased by 6% for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. We estimate that system-wide sales were adversely impacted by approximately $6.3 million as a result of Hurricane Matthew and the Tennessee wildfires in 2016. This growth reflected an increase in the number of tours and the average price per transaction, partially offset by a decrease in the sale-to-tour conversion ratio.
The following table sets forth certain information for system-wide sales of VOIs, net for 2016 and 2015. The information is provided before giving effect to the deferral of VOI sales in accordance with GAAP:

Gross sales of VOIs decreased by $44.4 million and $42.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively, for estimated future uncollectible notes receivable. Our estimated uncollectible VOI notes receivable as a percentage of gross sales of VOIs were 14% during each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. We believe a portion of the default increase in recent years is a result of the receipt of cease and desist letters from attorneys purporting to represent certain VOI owners and encouraging such owners to become delinquent and ultimately default on their obligations. Following receipt, contact of VOI owners is ceased, unless otherwise allowed by law.
The average default rates and delinquency rates (more than 30 days past due) on our notes receivable were as follows:

Average annual default rates
7.5 % 6.9 %

See “Business-Legal Proceedings” for information regarding letters we have received from attorneys who purport to represent VOI owners and who have encouraged VOI owners to become delinquent and ultimately default on their obligations, which have had an adverse impact on our delinquency and default rates.
Cost of VOIs Sold.    During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, cost of VOIs sold was $27.3 million, and $22.9 million, respectively, and represented 10%, and 9%, respectively, of sales of VOIs. In September 2016, we increased the selling price of our VOIs by 5%. As a result of this pricing change, our management also increased our estimate of total gross margin generated on the sale of our VOI inventory. Under the relative sales value method prescribed for timeshare developers to relieve the cost of VOI

TABLE OF CONTENTS
inventory, changes to the estimate of gross margin expected to be generated on the sale of VOI inventory are recognized on a retrospective basis in earnings. Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized a benefit to cost of VOIs sold of  $5.6 million.
Fee-Based Sales Commission Revenue.    During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we sold $294.8 million and $251.4 million, respectively, of third-party VOI inventory under commission arrangements within our capital-light business strategy and earned sales and marketing commissions of $201.8 million and $173.7 million, respectively, in connection with those sales. This increase was due primarily to an increase in the number of commission based clients, as well as the factors described above related to the increase in system-wide sales of VOIs, net. We earned an average sales and marketing commission of 68% and 69% during the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively. This increase in 2015 included an incentive commission of  $1.1 million related to the achievement of certain sales thresholds pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable contractual arrangement.
Financing Revenue, Net of Financing Expense- Sales of VOIs.    During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, financing revenue, net of financing expense related to the sale of VOIs were $60.3 million and $55.1 million, respectively. The increase is a result of our lower cost of borrowing and an increase in our VOI notes receivable portfolio. Revenues from mortgage servicing during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 of  $3.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively, are included in financing revenue, net of mortgage servicing expenses of  $6.1 million and $5.6 million, during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Other Fee-Based Services– Title Operations, net.    During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, revenue from our title operations was $13.8 million and $14.3 million, respectively, which was partially offset by expenses directly related to our title operations of  $5.1 million and $4.9 million, respectively.
Net Carrying Cost of VOI Inventory.    The carrying cost of our inventory was $16.8 million and $15.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which was partly offset by rental and sampler revenues of  $9.9 million and $8.3 million, respectively. The increase during the 2016 period as compared to the 2015 period was primarily due to an increase in maintenance fees related to a newly constructed building at Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacation’s Paradise Point resort that began sales in November 2015, partially offset by an increase in rental revenues and the increased emphasis on our capital-light strategy.
Selling and Marketing Expenses.    Selling and marketing expenses were $314.0 million and $284.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As a percentage of system-wide sales of VOIs, net, selling and marketing expenses were 52% and 51% during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This increase was a result of the focus on increasing our marketing efforts to new prospects as opposed to existing owners, which resulted in higher costs per tour from new and expanding marketing channels. Sales to existing owners generally involve lower marketing expenses than sales to new prospects. We expect to continue to increase our focus on sales to new prospects and, as a result, sales and marketing expenses generally and as a percentage of sales may continue to increase.
General and Administrative Expenses – Sales and Marketing Operations.    General and administrative expenses, which represent expenses directly attributable to sales and marketing operations, were $26.0 million and $23.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As a percentage of system-wide sales of VOIs, net, general and administrative expenses directly attributable to sales and marketing operations were 4% during both of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Resort Operations and Club Management Revenue.    Resort operations and club management revenues were $89.6 million and $83.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we managed 46 and 45 resort properties and hotels, respectively. Resort operations and club management revenue increase primarily as a result of increases in the number of owners in the Vacation Club. In January 2015, we sold the management contract from Bluegreen at Atlantic Palace Resort and recognized a $0.3 million gain, which is included in other income for the year ended December 31, 2015. Additionally, we generate revenues from our Traveler Plus program, and food and beverage and other retail operations. We also earn commissions from providing rental services to third parties and fees from managing the construction activities of certain fee-based clients.
Resort Operations and Club Management Costs.    Resort operations and club management costs were $52.5 million and $49.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. This increases are primarily due to the higher costs associated with programs provided to VOI owners and increased costs of providing management services as a result of the higher service volumes described above.

Other Income, Net.    Other income, net was $1.7 million and $2.9 million during 2016, and 2015, respectively. The decrease in 2016 is mainly the result of the sale of a property management agreement during the first quarter of 2015 for $2.0 million, with no comparable 2016 transaction.
General and Administrative Expenses – Corporate and Other.    General and administrative expenses, which represent expenses directly attributable to corporate overhead, were $72.7 million and $63.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in 2016 was primarily due to special bonuses totaling $10.0 million, which were paid to certain of our employees in June 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to the Non-Controlling Interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations.    We include in our consolidated financial statements the results of operations and financial condition of Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, our 51%-owned subsidiary.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our operating cash flow decreased $49.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 due in part to a $25.4 million tax sharing payment in the 2017 period as compared to $13.8 million in the 2016 period and increased spending on the acquisition and development of inventory in the 2017 period. During the first six months of 2017, we paid $10.3 million for development expenditures, primarily related to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, as compared to $5.0 million in the 2016 period. Additionally, we paid $15.9 million for inventory acquired in connection with JIT and secondary market arrangements in the 2017 period compared to $5.3 million for inventory purchased in connection with such arrangements during the 2016 period. These changes were partially offset by the increase in net income.
Our operating cash flow increased $31.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to decreased spending on the acquisition and development of inventory. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we paid $17.4 million for development expenditures, primarily related to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, as compared to $30.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2015. Further, operating cash flow increased due to positive cash flow from changes in components of working capital. This increase in operating cash flow was partially offset by lower cash realized within 30 days of sale, from 46% in the year ended December 31, 2015 to 41% in the year ended December 31, 2016, spending of  $17.7 million for inventory acquired in connection with JIT and secondary market arrangements during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $15.8 million for inventory purchased in connection with such arrangements during the year ended December 31, 2015 and the purchase during 2016 of a parcel of land adjacent to our Club 36 resort in Las Vegas for $6.1 million, for the future development of VOI inventory.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities increased $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, reflecting increased purchases of property and equipment in 2017.
Cash used in investing activities decreased $81.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to an $80.0 million loan made by us to BBX Capital during April 2015.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, cash from financing activities increased $16.8 million compared to the same period of 2016, primarily due to the proceeds from the Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit of  $30.0 million. Additionally, we paid $20.0 million in dividends to our parent company during the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $25.0 million of dividends paid during the same period in 2016. These increases were partially offset by the decreased proceeds from the 2017 Term Securitization compared to the 2016 Term Securitization.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, cash flows from financing activities decreased $14.5 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to a $16.0 million increase in dividends paid by us and an increase in payments on existing credit facilities, partially offset by an increase in proceeds from the 2016 Term Securitization compared to the 2015 Term Securitization, as well as the $25.0 million Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan obtained during the year ended December 31, 2016.
For additional information on the availability of cash from existing credit facilities, as well as repayment obligations, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources below.
Seasonality
We have historically experienced, and expect to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations in our revenues and results of operations. This seasonality has resulted, and may continue to result, in fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. Although more potential customers typically visit our sales offices during the quarters ending in June and September, our ultimate recognition of the resulting sales during these periods may be delayed due to down payment requirements for recognition of real estate sales under GAAP or due to the timing of development and required use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of funds from internal operations are: (i) cash sales; (ii) down payments on VOI sales which are financed; (iii) proceeds from the sale of, or borrowings collateralized by, notes receivable; (iv) cash from finance operations, including mortgage servicing fees and principal and interest payments received on the purchase money mortgage loans arising from sales of VOIs; and (v) net cash generated from sales and marketing fee-based services and other fee-based services, including resorts management operations.
While the vacation ownership business has historically been capital intensive and we may from time to time pursue transactions or activities which may require significant capital investment and adversely impact cash flows, we have generally sought to focus on the generation of  “free cash flow” (defined as cash flow from operating activities, less capital expenditures) by: (i) incentivizing our sales associates and creating programs with third-party credit card companies to generate a higher percentage of sales in cash; (ii) maintaining sales volumes that focus on efficient marketing channels; (iii) limiting our capital and inventory expenditures; (iv) utilizing sales and marketing, mortgage servicing, resort management services, title and construction expertise to pursue fee-based-service business relationships that generally require minimal up-front capital investment and have the potential to produce incremental cash flows; and (v) more recently, by selling VOIs through secondary market sales and JIT sales.
VOI sales are generally dependent upon providing financing to buyers. The ability to sell and/or borrow against notes receivable from VOI buyers has been a critical factor in our continued liquidity. A financed VOI buyer is generally only required to pay a minimum of 10% to 20% of the purchase price in cash at the time of sale; however, selling, marketing and administrative expenses attributable to the sale are primarily cash expenses that generally exceed a buyer’s minimum required down payment. Accordingly, having financing facilities available for the hypothecation, sale or transfer of our VOI notes receivable has been a critical factor in our ability to meet our short and long-term cash needs. We have attempted to maintain a number of diverse financing facilities. Historically, we have relied on our ability to sell receivables in the term securitization market in order to generate liquidity and create capacity in our receivable facilities. In addition, maintaining adequate VOI inventory to sell and pursue growth into new markets has historically

TABLE OF CONTENTS
required us to incur debt for the acquisition, construction and development of new resorts. We expect to seek to acquire or develop additional VOI inventory, which may increase our acquisition and development expenditures as compared to prior periods and may involve or require the incurrence of additional debt.
In connection with our capital-light business activities, we have entered into agreements with third-party developers that allow us to buy VOI inventory, typically on a non-committed basis, prior to when we intend to sell such VOI. Our capital-light business strategy also includes secondary market sales, pursuant to which we enter into secondary market arrangements with certain HOAs and others on a non-committed basis, which allows us to acquire VOIs generally at a significant discount, as such VOIs are typically obtained by the HOAs through foreclosure in connection with maintenance fee defaults. Acquisition of JIT and secondary market inventory in 2017 is expected to range from $35 million to $45 million.
Available funds may also be used to acquire other businesses or assets, invested in other real estate based opportunities, or loaned to affiliates or others.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we paid a $20.0 million cash dividend to Woodbridge. We expect to pay cash dividends on a regular basis, subject to declaration by, and the discretion of, our board of directors and limitations contained in our credit facilities.
2017 Term Securitization.    On June 6, 2017, we completed a private offering and sale of approximately $120.2 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes (the “2017 Term Securitization”). The 2017 Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of two tranches of VOI receivable-backed notes (the “Notes”): approximately $88.8 million of Class A notes and approximately $31.4 million of Class B notes with interest rates of 2.95% and 3.59%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.12%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 88%. The Notes mature in October 2032.
The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold or to be sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017 (the “Trust”) is $136.5 million, $117.0 million of which was sold to the Trust at closing, $3.0 million of which was subsequently sold to the 2017 Trust during the period ended June 30, 2017 and $16.6 million of which (the “Prefunded Receivables”) is expected to be sold to the Trust by October 4, 2017. The gross proceeds of such sales to the Trust were $120.2 million. A portion of the proceeds received were used to: repay KeyBank and DZ $32.3 million, representing all amounts outstanding (including accrued interest) under the KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility; repay Liberty Bank approximately $26.8 million (including accrued interest) under our existing facility with Liberty Bank; capitalize a reserve fund; and pay fees and expenses associated with the transaction. In April 2017, we, as servicer, redeemed the notes related to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2010-A for approximately $10.0 million, and certain of the VOI notes receivable in such trust were sold to the Trust in connection with the 2017 Term Securitization. The remainder of the gross proceeds from the 2017 Term Securitization were used for or are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. As a result of the facility repayments described above, immediately after the closing of the 2017 Term Securitization, (i) there were no amounts outstanding under the KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility, which allows for maximum outstanding receivable-backed borrowings of  $80.0 million on a revolving basis through December 31, 2019 and (ii) there was approximately $10.0 million outstanding under the Liberty Bank Facility, which permits maximum outstanding receivable-backed borrowings of $50.0 million on a revolving basis through November 30, 2017, in each case, subject to eligible collateral and the other terms and conditions of the facility. Thus, additional availability of approximately $58.9 million in the aggregate was created under the KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility and Liberty Bank Facility as a result of the repayments.
While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the 2017 Term Securitization is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. Subject to the performance of the collateral, we will receive any excess cash flows generated by the receivables transferred under the 2017 Term Securitization (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the 2017 Term Securitization) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Our level of debt and debt service requirements have several important effects on our operations, including the following: (i) significant debt service cash requirements reduce the funds available for operations and future business opportunities and increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, as well as conditions in the credit markets, generally; (ii) our leverage position increases our vulnerability to economic and competitive pressures; (iii) the financial covenants and other restrictions contained in indentures, credit agreements and other agreements relating to our indebtedness require us to meet certain financial tests and may restrict our ability to, among other things, pay dividends, borrow additional funds, dispose of assets or make investments; and (iv) our leverage position may limit funds available for acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, dividends and other general corporate purposes. Certain of our competitors operate on a less leveraged basis and have greater operating and financial flexibility than we do.
Credit Facilities for Receivables with Future Availability
We maintain various credit facilities with financial institutions which allow us to borrow against or sell our VOI notes receivable. As of June 30, 2017, we had the following credit facilities with future availability, all of which are subject to revolving availability terms during the advance period and therefore provide for additional availability as the facility is paid down, subject to compliance with covenants, eligible collateral and applicable terms and conditions during the advance period (dollars in thousands):

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Liberty Bank Facility.    Since 2008, we have maintained a revolving VOI notes receivable hypothecation facility (the “Liberty Bank Facility”) with Liberty Bank, which provides for advances on eligible receivables pledged under the Liberty Bank Facility, subject to specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period. Pursuant to the terms of the Liberty Bank Facility, the aggregate maximum outstanding borrowings are $50.0 million and the revolving credit period will expire in November 2017. The Liberty Bank Facility allows future advances of: (i) 85% of the unpaid principal balance of Qualified Timeshare Loans assigned to the agent; and (ii) 60% of the unpaid principal balance of Non-Conforming Qualified Timeshare Loans assigned to the agent; all of which bear interest at the WSJ Prime Rate + 0.50% per annum subject to a 4.00% floor. Principal and interest are required to be paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, with all outstanding amounts becoming due in November 2020.
NBA Receivables Facility.    Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations has a revolving VOI hypothecation facility (the “NBA Receivables Facility”) with National Bank of Arizona (“NBA”). The NBA Receivables Facility provides for advances at a rate of 85% on eligible receivables pledged under the facility, subject to eligible collateral and specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period. In the fourth quarter of 2016, NBA advanced approximately $20.0 million backed by eligible VOI notes receivable subject to certain terms and conditions of the facility at a reduced interest rate equal to 30-day LIBOR + 2.75% (with a floor of 3.50%). Amounts outstanding under the NBA Receivables Facility for borrowings made prior to September 2016 accrue interest at 30-day LIBOR + 3.25% (with a floor of 4.00%). All borrowings since September 2016 accrue interest at a rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR + 2.75% (with a floor of 3.50%). Principal repayments and interest on borrowings under the NBA Receivables Facility are required to be paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, subject to future required decreases in the advance rates after the expiration of the revolving advance period, with the remaining outstanding balance being due upon maturity. As of June 30, 2017, $5.3 million of the outstanding balance bore interest at a rate of 4.50% and $30.9 million of the outstanding balance bore interest at a rate of 4.00%. All principal and interest payments received on pledged receivables are applied to principal and interest due under the facility. During September 2017, the NBA Receivables Facility was amended to increase the maximum borrowings from $45.0 million (inclusive of outstanding borrowings under the NBA Line of Credit described below) to $50.0 million (exclusive of outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit and subject to increase as described below). Pursuant to the amendment, the maximum borrowings may be further increased by up to an additional $20.0 million (to a total of  $70 million); provided, however, that any such increase will result in a corresponding decrease in the maximum borrowings under the NBA Line of Credit. The amendment also extended the revolving advance period from June 2018 to September 2020 and the maturity date from December 2022 to March 2025. The amendment did not impact the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the NBA Receivables Facility. The NBA Receivables Facility is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the NBA Line of Credit.
Pacific Western Facility.    We have a revolving VOI notes receivable hypothecation facility (the “Pacific Western Facility”) with Pacific Western Bank, which provides for advances on eligible receivables pledged under the facility, subject to specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period. Maximum outstanding borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility are $40.0 million (inclusive of outstanding borrowings under the Pacific Western Term Loan), subject to eligible collateral and customary terms and conditions. The revolving advance period expiration date is September 2018, subject to an additional 12-month extension at the option of Pacific Western Bank. Eligible “A” receivables that meet certain eligibility and FICO score requirements, which our management believes are typically consistent with loans originated under our current credit underwriting standards, are subject to an 85% advance rate. The Pacific Western Facility also allows for certain eligible “B” receivables (which have less stringent FICO score requirements) to be funded at a 53% advance rate. Borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility accrue interest at 30-day LIBOR + 4.50%, except that the interest rate on a portion of future borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility, to the extent such borrowings are in excess of established debt minimums, will accrue interest at 30-day LIBOR + 4.00%. Principal repayments and interest on borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility are paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, subject to future required decreases in the advance rates after the end of the revolving advance period, with the remaining outstanding balance maturing in September 2021, subject to an additional 12-month extension at the option

of Pacific Western Bank. The Pacific Western Facility is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the Pacific Western Term Loan. See Note 6 of our consolidated financial statements for information regarding the Pacific Western Term Loan.
KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility.    On May 19, 2017, our VOI notes receivable purchase facility with DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt AM Main (“DZ”) and, at that time, Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BB&T), which permits maximum outstanding financings of  $80.0 million, was amended and restated to extend the advance period from December 2017 to December 2019 and increase the advance rate with respect to VOI notes receivable securing amounts financed from 75% to 80%. In connection with the amendment and restatement, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) replaced BB&T as a funding agent. The facility (the “KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility”) will mature and all outstanding amounts will become due 36 months after the revolving advance period has expired, or earlier under certain circumstances set forth in the facility. Interest on amounts outstanding under the facility is tied to an applicable index rate of the LIBOR rate, in the case of amounts funded by KeyBank (including amounts previously funded by BB&T), and a cost of funds rate or commercial paper rates, in the case of amounts funded by or through DZ. The interest rate under the facility equals the applicable index rate plus 2.75% until the expiration of the revolving advance period and thereafter will equal the applicable index rate plus 4.75%. Subject to the terms of the facility, we will receive the excess cash flows generated by the receivables sold (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest and principal under the facility) until the expiration of the receivables advance period, at which point all of the excess cash flow will be paid to the note holders until the outstanding balance is reduced to zero. While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse and is not guaranteed by us.
Quorum Purchase Facility.    We and Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations have a VOI notes receivable purchase facility (the “Quorum Purchase Facility”) with Quorum Federal Credit Union (“Quorum”). Quorum has agreed to purchase, on a revolving basis through June 30, 2018, eligible VOI notes receivable in an amount of up to an aggregate $50.0 million purchase price, subject to certain conditions precedent and other terms of the facility. The interest rate on future advances made under the Quorum Purchase Facility will be set at the time of funding based on rates mutually agreed upon by all parties. Amounts outstanding under the Quorum Purchase Facility accrue interest at interest rates ranging from 4.75% to 6.90% per annum. The Quorum Purchase Facility provides for an 85% advance rate on eligible receivables sold under the facility. Future advances are subject to a loan purchase fee of 0.50%. The Quorum Purchase Facility becomes due in December 2030. Eligibility requirements for receivables sold include, among others, that the obligors under the VOI notes receivable sold be members of Quorum at the time of the note sale. Subject to performance of the collateral, we or Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, as applicable, will receive any excess cash flows generated by the receivables transferred to Quorum under the facility (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest and principal under the facility) on a pro rata basis as borrowers make payments on their VOI loans. While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the Quorum Purchase Facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse.
Credit Facilities for Inventories with Future Availability
NBA Line of Credit.    Since December 2013, Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations has had a revolving line of credit with NBA (the “NBA Line of Credit”). As of June 30, 2017, the NBA Line of Credit had a borrowing limit of  $15.0 million and provided for a revolving advance period expiring in June 2018, for a maturity date in June 2020, and for borrowings to bear interest at the 30-day LIBOR + 3.50% (with a floor of 5.00%). During September 2017, the NBA Line of Credit was amended to increase the borrowing limit from $15.0 million to $20.0 million (subject to adjustment as described herein), to extend the revolving advance period from June 2018 to September 2020 and the maturity date from June 2020 to September 2022, and to provide for the NBA Line of Credit to be secured by unsold inventory and a building under construction at Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations’ The Cliffs at Long Creek resort. The NBA Line of Credit was previously secured by unsold inventory and a building under construction at Bluegreen/​Big Cedar Vacations’ Paradise Point resort, but such collateral was released in connection with the repayment of all amounts then outstanding under the NBA Line of Credit during April 2017. As described

TABLE OF CONTENTS
above, the borrowing limit under the NBA Line of Credit is subject to a dollar-for-dollar decrease to the extent of any increase in the maximum borrowings under the NBA Receivables Facility from $50.0 million to $70.0 million. In addition, pursuant to the amendment, borrowings under the NBA Line of Credit will accrue interest at a decreased rate equal to the one month LIBOR plus 3.25% (with an interest rate floor of 4.75%). Monthly interest payments are required. Principal payments are effected through release payments upon sales of the VOIs that serve as collateral for the NBA Line of Credit, subject to mandatory principal reductions. The NBA Line of Credit is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the NBA Receivables Facility described above. As of June 30, 2017, there was no outstanding balance on the NBA Line of Credit.
Other Credit Facilities and Outstanding Notes Payable
Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit and Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan.    In December 2016, we entered into a $100.0 million syndicated credit facility with Fifth Third Bank, as administrative agent and lead arranger and certain other bank participants as lenders. The facility includes a $25.0 million term loan (the “Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan”) with quarterly amortization requirements and a $75.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit”). Amounts borrowed under the facility generally bear interest at LIBOR + 2.75% to 3.75%, depending on our leverage ratio, are collateralized by certain of our VOI inventory, sales center buildings, management fees and short-term receivables, and will mature in December 2021. The facility contains covenants and conditions which we consider to be customary for transactions of this type. As of June 30, 2017, outstanding borrowings under the facility totaled $59.4 million, including $24.4 million under the Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan, with an interest rate of 3.79%, and $35.0 million under the Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit, with an interest rate of 3.90%.
We also have outstanding obligations under various credit facilities and securitizations that have no remaining future availability as the advance periods have expired.
Commitments
Our material commitments include the required payments due on our receivable-backed debt, lines-of-credit and other notes payable, junior subordinated debentures, commitments to complete certain projects based on our sales contracts with customers, subsidy advances to certain HOAs, an inventory purchase commitment under a JIT arrangement and commitments under non-cancelable operating leases.
The following table summarizes the contractual minimum principal and interest payments, net of unamortized discount, required on all of our outstanding debt, non-cancelable operating leases and inventory purchase commitments by period due date, as of December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

Assumes that the scheduled minimum principal payments are made in accordance with the table above and the interest rate on variable rate debt remains the same as the rate at December 31, 2016.
In lieu of paying maintenance fees for unsold VOI inventory, we may enter into subsidy agreements with certain HOAs. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, we made payments related to such subsidies of  $0.1 million and $13.9 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2017, we accrued a $5.3 million liability for payments which may be made under such subsidy agreements, which is included in accrued liabilities and other in the consolidated balance sheet as of that date.
We believe that our existing cash, anticipated cash generated from operations, anticipated future permitted borrowings under existing or future credit facilities, and anticipated future sales of notes receivable under existing, future or replacement purchase facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements, including the contractual payment of the obligations set forth above, for the foreseeable future, subject to the success of our ongoing business strategy and the ongoing availability of credit. We will continue our efforts to renew, extend or replace any credit and receivables purchase facilities that have expired or that will expire in the near term. We may, in the future, also obtain additional credit facilities and may issue corporate debt or equity securities. Any debt incurred or issued may be secured or unsecured, bear interest at fixed or variable rates and may be subject to such terms as the lender may require. In addition, our efforts to renew or replace credit facilities or receivables purchase facilities which have expired or which are scheduled to expire in the near term may not be successful, and sufficient funds may not be available from operations or under existing, proposed or future revolving credit or other borrowing arrangements or receivables purchase facilities to meet our cash needs, including debt service obligations. To the extent we are unable to sell notes receivable or borrow under such facilities, our ability to satisfy our obligations would be materially adversely affected.
Our receivables purchase facilities, credit facilities, indentures and other outstanding debt instruments include what we believe to be customary conditions to funding, eligibility requirements for collateral, cross-default and other acceleration provisions and certain financial and other affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, limits on the incurrence of indebtedness, payment of dividends, investments in joint ventures and other restricted payments, the incurrence of liens and transactions with affiliates, as well as covenants concerning net worth, fixed charge coverage requirements, debt-to-equity ratios, portfolio performance requirements and cash balances, and events of default or termination. In the future, we may be required to seek waivers of such covenants, but may not be successful in obtaining waivers, and such covenants may limit our ability to raise funds, sell receivables or satisfy or refinance our obligations, or otherwise adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as our ability to pay dividends. In addition, our future operating performance and ability to meet our financial obligations will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which may be beyond our control.
Off-balance-sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we did not have any “off-balance sheet” arrangements.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily include interest rate risk and risks relating to inflation and changing prices.
Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had fixed interest rate debt of approximately $412.6 million and $346.7 million, respectively, and floating interest rate debt of approximately $198.1 million and $235.7 million, respectively. In addition, our notes receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were comprised of approximately $535.8 million and $544.4 million, respectively, of notes bearing interest at fixed rates and approximately $1.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of notes bearing interest at floating rates. The floating interest rates are subject to floors and are generally based
62

TABLE OF CONTENTS
either upon the prevailing prime or LIBOR rates. For floating rate financial instruments, interest rate changes generally do not affect the market value of the debt, but do impact earnings and cash flows relating to the debt, assuming other factors are held constant. Conversely, for fixed rate financial instruments, interest rate changes affect the market value of the debt but do not impact earnings or cash flows relating to the debt, assuming other factors are held constant.
To the extent inflationary trends, tightened credit markets or other factors affect interest rates, our debt service costs may increase. If interest rates increased one percentage point, the effect on interest expense related to our floating rate debt would be an annual increase of approximately $2.0 million based on June 30, 2017 balances and an annual increase of approximately $2.4 million based on December 31, 2016 balances. Due to the interest rate floors on our floating rate debt, if interest rates decreased one percentage point, the effect on interest expense related to our floating rate debt would be an annual decrease of approximately $1.5 million based on June 30, 2017 balances and interest rates and an annual decrease of approximately $1.7 million based on December 31, 2016 balances and interest rates. In addition, a one percentage point increase or decrease in interest rates would affect the total fair value of our fixed rate debt by an immaterial amount. This analysis does not consider the effects of changes in the level of overall economic activity that could result due to interest rate changes. Further, in the event of a significant change in interest rates, we may pursue actions in order to mitigate any exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that may be taken and their possible effects, the foregoing sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
Risks Relating to Inflation and Changing Prices
Inflation and changing prices have had and may in the future have a material impact on our revenues and results of operations. We have increased the sales prices of our VOIs periodically, including in September 2016 and June 2017, and have from time to time experienced increases in construction and development costs. We may not be able to increase or maintain the current level of our sales prices, and increased construction and development costs may have a material adverse impact on our gross margin. In addition, to the extent that inflation or increased prices for VOIs adversely impacts consumer demand, our results of operations could be adversely impacted.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of commitments and contingencies. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those that relate to the estimated future sales value of inventory; the recognition of revenue, including revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting; our allowance for credit losses; the recovery of the carrying value of real estate inventories; the fair value of assets measured at, or compared to, fair value on a non-recurring basis such as assets held for sale, intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and the estimate of contingent liabilities related to litigation and other claims and assessments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates if different assumptions and conditions were utilized. If actual results differ significantly from our estimates, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially, adversely impacted.
Revenue Recognition and Inventory Cost Allocation
Sales of Real Estate
In accordance with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 970-605, Real Estate-Revenue Recognition, we recognize revenue on VOI sales when a minimum of 10% of the sales price has been received in cash (buyer’s commitment), the legal rescission period has expired, collectibility of the receivable representing the remainder of the sales price is
63

TABLE OF CONTENTS
reasonably assured and we have completed substantially all of our obligations with respect to any development related to the real estate sold. We believe that we use a reasonably reliable methodology to estimate the collectibility of the receivables representing the remainder of the sales price of VOIs sold. See the further discussion of our policies regarding the estimation of credit losses on our notes receivable below. Should we become unable to reasonably estimate the collectibility of our receivables, we may have to defer the recognition of sales and our results of operations could be negatively impacted.
Under timeshare accounting rules, the buyer’s minimum cash down payment towards the purchase of our VOIs is met only if the cash down payment received, reduced by the value of certain incentives provided to the buyer at the time of sale, is at least 10% of the sales price. If, after consideration of the value of the incentive, the total down payment received from the buyer is less than 10% of the sales price, the VOI sale, and the related cost of sales and direct selling expenses, are deferred until such time that sufficient cash is received from the customer, generally through receipt of mortgage payments, to meet the 10% threshold. Changes to the quantity, type or value of sales incentives that we provide to buyers of our VOIs may increase the number of VOI sales being deferred or extend the period during which a sale is deferred, which could materially adversely impact our results of operations.
In cases where construction and development on our owned resorts has not been substantially completed, we recognize revenue in accordance with the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Should our estimates of the total anticipated cost of completing any of our projects increase, we may be required to defer a greater amount of revenue or may be required to defer revenue for a longer period of time, which could materially adversely impact our results of operations. Timeshare accounting rules require the use of an industry-specific relative sales value method for relieving VOI inventory and recording cost of sales. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is calculated as a percentage of net sales using a cost-of-sales percentage — the ratio of total estimated development cost to total estimated VOI revenue, including the estimated incremental revenue from the resale of repossessed VOI inventory, as a result of the default of the related receivable.
Fee- Based Sales Commissions and Other Revenue
In addition to sales of VOIs, we also generate revenue from the activities listed below. The table provides a brief description of the applicable revenue recognition policy:
Activity
Revenue is recognized when:
Fee-based sales commissions
The sale transaction with the VOI purchaser is consummated in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third-party developer and the related consumer rescission period has expired.
Resort management and service fees Management services are rendered (1) .
Resort title fees
Escrow amounts are released and title documents are completed.
Rental and sampler program
Guests complete stays at the resorts. Rental and sampler program proceeds are classified as a reduction to “Cost of other fee-based services” in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
(1)
In connection with our management of HOAs, among other things, we act as agent for the HOAs to operate the resort as provided under the management agreement. In certain cases, personnel at the resorts are our employees. The HOAs bear the costs of such personnel and generally pay us in advance of, or simultaneously with, the payment of payroll. In accordance with ASC 605-45, Overall Considerations of Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent , reimbursements from the HOAs relating to direct pass-through costs are recorded net of the related expenses.
64

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Carrying Value of Completed VOI Inventory
We carry our completed VOIs at the lower of  (i) cost, including costs of improvements and amenities incurred subsequent to acquisition, capitalized interest, real estate taxes and other costs incurred during construction, or (ii) estimated fair market value, less costs to sell.
We capitalize interest expense, real estate taxes and other costs when activities that are necessary to prepare the VOI inventory for its intended use are underway. We cease capitalization of costs during prolonged gaps in development when substantially all activities are suspended or when projects are considered substantially complete.
Carrying Value of VOIs Held for Development, or Under Development, and Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate the recoverability of our long-lived assets, and our real estate properties under development or held for development, if certain trigger events occur. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is written down to our estimated fair value.
Allowance for Credit Losses on VOI Notes Receivable
The allowance for credit losses is related to the notes receivable generated by financing our VOI sales. We use a static pool analysis as a basis for determining our estimated reserve requirements on our VOI notes receivable. The adequacy of the related allowance is determined by management through analyses of several qualitative and quantitative factors requiring judgment, such as economic factors, default trends by origination year and FICO scores of borrowers. Changes in estimates used could result in a material change to our allowance.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810) – Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”). This new guidance makes targeted amendments to the previous consolidation guidance and ends the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the variable interest entity (“VIE”) guidance. This standard became effective for us on January 1, 2016. Our adoption of ASU 2015-02 had no effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03,” Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015- 03”), which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. This standard became effective for us on January 1, 2016. Our adoption of ASU 2015-03 is reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. As further displayed in the table below, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2015- 3, we reclassified certain unamortized debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Future Adoption of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), which, as amended, specifies how and when to recognize revenue from contracts with customers by providing a principle based framework. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2018.
65

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial adoption. We are currently analyzing the potential impacts to the consolidated financial statements, related disclosures and ultimately our business processes, accounting policies and controls. While we continue to assess these impacts amongst all material revenue streams, the recognition of fee-based sales commission revenue, ancillary revenues, and rental revenues is expected to remain materially unchanged. We currently expect possible areas of impact will include (i) gross versus net presentation for payroll reimbursement related to resorts managed by us on behalf of third-parties and (ii) timing of the recognition of VOI revenue related to the removal of certain brightline tests regarding the determination of the adequacy of the buyer’s commitment under existing industry-specific guidance. Final industry-specific guidance remains open for the following issues: (i) application of percentage of completion related to sales of incomplete VOI, (ii) allocation of transaction price, (iii) satisfaction of performance obligations and (iii) contract costs. Due to the nature and potential significant impact of these open issues, we expect to disclose additional details on the impact of the adoption of this accounting standard later in 2017 as industry-specific guidance is issued. We anticipate adopting this standard on January 1, 2018.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). This update will require assets and liabilities to be recognized on the balance sheet of a lessee for the rights and obligations created by leases of assets with terms of more than 12 months. For income statement purposes, the update retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance based on largely similar criteria to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. ASU 2016-02 also requires extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures, including significant judgments made by management, to provide greater insight into the extent of revenue and expense recognized and expected to be recognized from existing contracts. This standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan losses. Further, public entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination (i.e., by vintage year). This standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted beginning January 1, 2019. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)– Classifications of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which is intended to clarify the presentation of cash receipts and payments in specific situations. Further in November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)- Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires entities to show the changes in total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows with a reconciliation to the related captions in the balance sheet. These standards will be effective for us on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Our adoption of ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
BUSINESS
Overview
We are a leading vacation ownership company that markets and sells VOIs and manages resorts in top leisure and urban destinations. Our resort network includes 42 Club Resorts (resorts in which owners in our Vacation Club have the right to use most of the units in connection with their VOI ownership) and 24 Club Associate Resorts (resorts in which owners in our Vacation Club have the right to use a limited number of units in connection with their VOI ownership). Our Club Resorts and Club Associate Resorts are primarily located in popular, high-volume, “drive-to” vacation locations, including Orlando, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, among others. Through our points-based system, the approximately 210,000 owners in our Vacation Club have the flexibility to stay at units available at any of our resorts and have access to almost 11,000 other hotels and resorts through partnerships and exchange networks. We have a robust sales and marketing platform supported by exclusive marketing relationships with nationally-recognized consumer brands, such as Bass Pro and Choice Hotels, which drive sales within our core demographic.
Historically, our business consisted of the sale of VOIs in resorts that we developed or acquired (“developed VOI sales”). While we continue to conduct such sales and development activities, we now also derive a significant portion of our revenue from our capital-light business model, which utilizes our expertise and infrastructure to generate both commissions on VOI sales and recurring revenue from third parties without the significant capital investment generally associated with the development and acquisition of resorts. Our capital-light business activities include sales of VOIs owned by third-party developers pursuant to which we are paid a commission (“fee-based sales”), and sales of VOIs that we purchase under JIT, arrangements with third-party developers or from secondary market sources. In addition, we provide other fee-based services, including resort management, mortgage servicing, title services and construction management. We also offer financing to qualified VOI purchasers, which generates significant interest income.

Excludes “Other Income, Net.”
Our Vacation Club has grown from approximately 170,000 owners as of December 31, 2012 to approximately 210,000 owners as of July 31, 2017. We primarily serve a demographic underpenetrated within the vacation ownership industry, as the typical Vacation Club owner has an average annual household income of approximately $75,000 as compared to an industry average of  $90,000. According to the most recent U.S. census data, households with an annual income of  $50,000 to $100,000 represent the largest percentage of the total population (approximately 29%). While the weighted-average age of a Vacation Club owner is 48, over 28% of Vacation Club owners are younger than 44 years old. We believe our ability to effectively scale our transaction size to suit our customer, as well as our high-quality, conveniently-located, “drive-to” resorts are attractive to this targeted demographic.

Our Product
Vacation Ownership Interests
Since entering the vacation ownership industry in 1994, we have generated over 582,000 VOI sales transactions, including over 99,000 fee-based sales transactions. Vacation Club owners receive an annual or biennial allotment of  “points” in perpetuity (supported by an underlying deeded VOI held in trust for the owner) that may be used to stay at any of our 42 Club Resorts and 24 Club Associate Resorts. Vacation Club owners can use their points to stay in resorts for varying lengths of time, starting at a minimum of two nights. The number of points required for a stay at a resort varies depending on a variety of factors, including resort location, size of the unit, vacation season and the days of the week. Under this system, Vacation Club owners can select vacations according to their schedules, space needs and available points. Subject to certain restrictions and fees, Vacation Club owners are typically allowed to carry over any unused points for one year and to “borrow” points from the next year. Vacation Club owners may also take advantage of various other lodging and vacation opportunities available to them as described under “Value Proposition” below.
Each of our Club Resorts and Club Associate Resorts is managed by an HOA, which is governed by a board of directors or trustees. This board hires a management company to which it delegates many of the rights and responsibilities of the HOA, including landscaping, security, housekeeping, garbage collection, utilities, insurance procurement, laundry and repairs and maintenance. Vacation Club owners pay annual maintenance fees which cover the costs of operating all the resorts in the Vacation Club system, including fees for real estate taxes and reserves for capital improvements. If a Vacation Club owner does not pay such charges, his or her use rights may be suspended and ultimately terminated, subject to the applicable lender’s first mortgage lien, if any, on such owner’s VOI. We provide management services to 47 resorts and the Vacation Club through contractual arrangements with HOAs. We have a 100% renewal rate on management contracts from our Club Resorts.
Value Proposition
Our Vacation Club’s points-based platform offers owners significant flexibility. As reflected in the chart below, basic Vacation Club ownership entitles owners to use their points to stay at any of our 42 Club Resorts and 24 Club Associate Resorts, as well as to access more than 4,300 resorts available through the RCI exchange network. For a nominal annual fee and transaction fees, Vacation Club owners can join and utilize our Traveler Plus program, which enables them to use their points to access an additional 43 direct exchange resorts, for other vacation experiences, such as cruises, and to convert their Vacation Club points into Choice Privileges points. Choice Privileges points can be used for stays in Choice Hotels. In addition, Traveler Plus members can directly use their Vacation Club points for stays in Choice Hotels’ Ascend Hotel Collection properties, a network of historic and boutique hotels in the United States, Canada, Scandinavia and Latin America. Overall, there are approximately 6,400 hotels in the Choice Hotels network, located in more than 40 countries and territories, and Choice Hotels’ brands include the Ascend Hotel Collection, Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality, Sleep Inn, Clarion, Cambria Hotels and Suites, MainStay Suites, Suburban Extended Stay Hotel, Econo Lodge and Rodeway Inn. We continuously seek new ways to add value for our Vacation Club owners, including enhanced product offerings, new resort locations, broader vacation experiences and further technological innovation, all of which are designed to increase guest satisfaction.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Vacation Club resorts are primarily “drive-to” resort destinations, with approximately 85% of our Vacation Club owners living within a four-hour drive of at least one of our resorts. Our resorts are located in popular vacation destinations, such as Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and Nevada, and represent a diverse mix of resort and urban destinations, allowing Vacation Club owners the ability to customize their vacation experience. In addition, we offer our Vacation Club owners access to Caribbean locations, including Aruba.
Our resort network offers a diverse mix of experiences and accommodations. Unlike some of our competitors that maintain static brand design standards across resorts and geographies, we seek to design resorts that capture the uniqueness of each particular location. Our distinctive resorts are designed to create an authentic experience and connection to their unique and varied locations.
Our resorts typically feature condominium-style accommodations with amenities such as fully equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi internet access, entertainment centers and in-room laundry facilities. Many resorts feature a clubhouse (including a pool, game room, exercise facilities and lounge), hotel-type staff and concierge services.
We own a 51% interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, which develops, markets and sells VOIs at three premier wilderness-themed resorts adjacent to Table Rock Lake near Branson, Missouri: The Bluegreen Wilderness Club at Big Cedar, The Cliffs at Long Creek and Paradise Point. The remaining 49% interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations is held Big Cedar, LLC, an affiliate of Bass Pro. As a result of our controlling interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, our consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and financial condition of Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations.
Located next to the luxury Big Cedar Lodge, The Bluegreen Wilderness Club is a 40-acre resort overlooking Table Rock Lake with sprawling views of the surrounding Ozarks. Vacation Club owners enjoy a variety of amenities, including a 9,000 square foot clubhouse, lazy river and a rock-climbing wall, in addition to full access to the amenities and recreational activities of Big Cedar Lodge. The Cliffs at Long Creek offers fully furnished homes that can accommodate up to 13 people while providing access to a clubhouse and amenities at The Bluegreen Wilderness Club. Paradise Point offers spacious vacation villas with direct access to Table Rock Lake and the Bass Pro Long Creek Marina.

Marketing and Sale of Inventory
VOI sales are typically generated by attracting prospective customers to tour a resort and attend a sales presentation. Our sales and marketing platform utilizes a variety of methods to generate new owner prospects, drive tour flow and sell VOIs in our Vacation Club. We utilize marketing alliances with nationally-recognized brands, which provide exclusive access to venues which target consumers generally matching our core demographic. In addition, we source sales prospects through programs which generate leads at high-traffic venues and in high-density tourist locations and events, as well as from telemarketing and referrals from existing owners and exchangers and renters staying at our properties.
Many of our programs involve the sale of a discounted vacation package that typically includes a two to three night stay in close proximity to one of our resort sales offices and requires participation in a sales presentation. Vacation packages are typically sold either in retail establishments, such as Bass Pro stores and outlet malls, or via telemarketing. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we sold over 300,000 vacation packages and 48% of our VOI sales were derived from vacation packages. As of December 31, 2016, we had a pipeline of over 230,000 vacation packages sold, which typically convert to tours at a rate of 57%.
We have an exclusive marketing agreement with Bass Pro, a nationally-recognized retailer of fishing, marine, hunting, camping and sports gear, that provides us with the right to market and sell vacation packages at kiosks in each of Bass Pro’s retail locations. As of December 31, 2016, we sold vacation packages in 68 of Bass Pro’s stores. Bass Pro has a loyal customer base that strongly matches our core demographic. Under the agreement, we also have the right to market VOIs in Bass Pro catalogs and on its website, and to access Bass Pro’s customer database. In exchange, we compensate Bass Pro based on VOI sales generated through the program. No compensation is paid to Bass Pro under the agreement on sales made at Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations’ resorts. During the year ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, VOI sales to prospects and leads generated by the agreement with Bass Pro accounted for approximately 16% and 15%, respectively, of our VOI sales volume. On October 9, 2017, Bass Pro advised us that it believes the amounts paid to it as VOI sales commissions should not have been adjusted for certain purchaser defaults. We previously informed Bass Pro that the aggregate amount of such adjustments charged back to Bass Pro between January 2008 and June 2017 totaled approximately $4.8 million. We believe these chargebacks were appropriate and consistent with the terms and intent of our agreements with Bass Pro, and we are continuing to discuss the matter with Bass Pro. In the meantime, in order to demonstrate our good faith, we have paid this amount to Bass Pro pending a resolution of the matter in the ordinary course. We expect to recognize the expense for that amount during the fourth quarter of 2017. Our marketing alliance with Bass Pro originated in 2000, has been renewed twice and currently runs through 2025.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
We have an exclusive strategic relationship with Choice Hotels that covers several areas of our business, including a sales and marketing alliance that enables us to leverage Choice Hotels’ brands, customer relationships and marketing channels to sell vacation packages. Vacation packages are sold through customer reservation calls transferred to us from Choice and through outbound telemarketing methods utilizing Choice’s customer database. In addition, 29 of our resorts are part of Choice’s Ascend Hotel Collection, which provides us with the opportunity to market to Choice Hotel guests staying at our resorts. Our strategic relationship with Choice Hotels originated in 2013 and was extended in August 2017 for a term of 15 years, with an additional 15-year renewal term thereafter unless either party elects not to renew the arrangement.
In addition, we generate leads and sell vacation packages through our relationships with various other retail operators and entertainment providers. As of December 31, 2016, we had kiosks in 31 outlet malls, strategically selected based on proximity to major vacation destinations and strong foot traffic of consumers matching our core demographic. We generate vacation package sales from these kiosks. We also generate leads at malls, outlets and high-density locations or events, where contact information for sales prospects is obtained through raffles, giveaways and other attractions. We then seek to sell vacation packages to such prospects, including through telemarketing efforts by us or third-party vendors. As of December 31, 2016, we had lead generation operations in over 300 locations.
We believe that our diverse strategic marketing alliances (including those with Bass Pro, Choice Hotels and other retail operators and entertainment providers) deliver a strategic advantage over certain competitors that rely primarily on relationships with their affiliated hotel brands to drive lead generation and new owner growth. We have experience in identifying marketing partners with brands that attract our targeted owner demographic and building successful marketing relationships with those partners. We also attempt to structure these marketing alliances to compensate our partners with success-based payments, rather than flat fees for the use of their brand or facilities for lead generation. We believe that the variety in our marketing relationships has facilitated a healthy mix of new owner sales vs. existing owner sales that compare favorably to our competitors. During the year ended December 31, 2016, 54% of our VOI sales were to new owners.
In addition to attracting new customers, we also seek to sell additional VOI points to our existing Vacation Club owners. These sales generally have lower marketing costs and result in higher operating margins than sales generated through other marketing channels. During the year ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, sales to existing Vacation Club owners accounted for 46% and 49% of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net, respectively. We target a balanced mix of new customer and existing Vacation Club owner sales to drive sustainable long-term growth. The number of Vacation Club owners has increased at a 5% CAGR between 2012 and 2016, from approximately 170,000 owners as of December 31, 2012 to approximately 208,000 owners as of December 31, 2016. As of July 31, 2017, there were approximately 210,000 owners in our Vacation Club.
We operate 23 sales offices, typically located adjacent to our resorts and staffed with sales representatives and sales managers. We utilize a uniform sales process, offer ongoing training for our sales personnel and maintain strict quality control policies. During the year ended December 31, 2016, 90% of our sales were generated from 16 of our sales offices, which focus on both new customer and existing Vacation Club owner sales. Our remaining 7 sales offices are primarily focused on sales to existing Vacation Club owners staying at the respective resort. In addition, we utilize our telesales operations to sell VOIs to Vacation Club owners. As of December 31, 2016, we had over 3,500 employees dedicated to VOI sales and marketing.
Flexible Business Model
Our business model is designed to give us flexibility to capitalize on opportunities and quickly adapt to changing market environments. We have the ability to adjust our targeted mix of capital-light vs. developed VOI sales, sales to new customers vs. existing Vacation Club owners, and cash vs. financed sales. While we may pursue opportunities that impact our short-term results, our long-term goal is to achieve sustained growth while maximizing earnings and cash flow.

Note: Cash sales represent the portion of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net that is received from the customer in cash within 30 days of purchase.
VOI Sales Mix
Our VOI sales include:

Fee-based sales of VOIs owned by third-party developers pursuant to which we are paid a commission;

JIT sales of VOIs we acquire from third-party developers in close proximity to when we intend to sell such VOIs;

Secondary market sales of VOIs we acquire from HOAs or other owners; and

Developed VOI sales, or sales of VOIs in resorts that we develop or acquire (excluding inventory acquired pursuant to JIT and secondary market arrangements).
[MISSING IMAGE: C477136_PIE-SALES.JPG]
Fee-Based Sales
We offer sales and marketing services to third-party vacation ownership resort developers for a commission. Under these fee-based sales arrangements, which are typically entered into on a non-committed basis, we sell the third-party developers’ VOIs as Vacation Club interests through our sales and marketing platform. We also provide third-party developers with administrative services, periodic reporting and analytics through our proprietary software platform. We seek to structure the fee for these services to cover selling and marketing costs, plus an operating profit. Historically we have targeted a commission rate of 65% to 75% of the VOI sales price. Notes receivable originated in connection with
74

TABLE OF CONTENTS
fee-based sales are held by the third-party developer and, in certain cases, are serviced by us for an additional fee. In connection with fee-based sales, we are not at risk for development financing and have no capital requirements, thereby increasing ROIC. We also typically obtain the HOA management contract associated with these resorts.
Just-In-Time (JIT) Sales
We enter into JIT inventory acquisition agreements with third-party developers that allow us to buy VOI inventory in close proximity to when we intend to sell such VOIs. While we typically enter into such arrangements on a non-committed basis, we may engage in committed arrangements under certain circumstances. Similar to fee-based sales, JIT sales do not expose us to risk for development financing. However, unlike fee-based sales, we hold the consumer finance receivables originated in connection with JIT sales. While JIT sales accounted for only 4% of system-wide sales of VOIs, net for the year ended December 31, 2016, JIT arrangements are often entered into in connection with fee-based sales arrangements.
Secondary Market Sales
We acquire VOI inventory from HOAs and other owners on a non-committed basis. These VOIs are typically obtained by the applicable HOA through foreclosure or termination in connection with HOA maintenance fee defaults. Accordingly, we generally purchase VOIs from secondary market sources at a greater discount to retail price compared to developed VOI sales and JIT sales. During the year ended December 31, 2016, secondary market sales accounted for 14% of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net.
Developed VOI Sales
Developed VOI sales are sales of VOIs in resorts that we have developed or acquired (excluding inventory acquired pursuant to JIT and secondary market arrangements). During the year ended December 31, 2016, developed VOI sales accounted for 33% of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net. We hold the notes receivable originated in connection with developed VOI sales. We also typically obtain the HOA management contract associated with these resorts.
Future VOI Sales
Completed VOI inventory increases or decreases from period to period due to the acquisition of inventory through JIT and secondary market arrangements, development of new VOI units, reacquisition of VOIs through notes receivable defaults and changes to sales prices and completed sales. As of December 31, 2015, December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2017, we owned completed VOI inventory (excluding units not currently being marketed as VOIs, including model units) and had access to additional completed VOI inventory through fee-based and JIT arrangements as follows (dollars are in thousands and represent the then-estimated retail sales value):
Inventory Source
As of
December 31, 2015
As of
December 31, 2016
As of
June 30, 2017
Owned completed VOI inventory
$ 580,767 $ 548,076 $ 703,049
Inventory accessible through fee-based and JIT arrangements
402,116 503,820 564,969
Total
$ 982,883 $ 1,051,896 $ 1,268,018
Based on current estimates and expectations, we believe this inventory, combined with inventory being developed by us or our third-party developer clients, and inventory that we may reacquire in connection with mortgage and maintenance fee defaults, can support our VOI sales at our current levels for over four years. We maintain relationships with numerous third-party developers and expect additional fee-based and JIT relationships to continue to provide high-quality VOI inventory to support our sales efforts. In addition, we are focused on strategically expanding our inventory through development at three of our resorts over the next several years. We will also continue to strategically evaluate opportunities to develop or acquire VOI inventory in key strategic markets where we identify growing demand and have already established marketing and sales networks.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017, the estimated retail sales value and cash purchase price of the VOIs we acquired through secondary market arrangements were as follows (dollars in thousands):
Year Ended

Estimated retail sales value
$ 183,489 $ 169,848 $ 87,289
Cash purchase price
$ 6,669 $ 7,555 $ 3,772
In addition to inventory acquired through secondary market arrangements and in connection with notes receivable defaults, we expect to acquire inventory through seven JIT arrangements during 2017 and development activities. Development activities during 2017 consist primarily of additional VOI units being developed at The Cliffs at Long Creek in Ridgedale, Missouri, and at the Fountains in Orlando, Florida.
Management and Other Fee-Based Services
We earn recurring management fees for providing services to HOAs. These management services include oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance and certain accounting and administrative functions. We believe our management contracts yield highly predictable cash flows that do not have the traditional risks associated with hotel management contracts that are linked to daily rate or occupancy. Our management contracts are typically structured as “cost-plus” management fees, which means we generally earn fees equal to 10% to 12% of the costs to operate the applicable resort with an initial term of three years and automatic one-year renewals. As of June 30, 2017, we provided management services to 47 resorts. We also earn recurring management fees for providing services to the Vacation Club. These services include managing the reservation system and providing owner billing and collection services. Our management contract with the Vacation Club provides for reimbursement of our costs plus a fee equal to $10 per VOI owner. We may seek to expand our management services business, including to provide hospitality management services to hotels for third parties.
In addition to HOA and club management services, which provide a recurring stream of revenue, we provide other fee-based services that produce revenues without the significant capital investment generally associated with the development and acquisition of resorts. These services include, but are not limited to, title and escrow services for fees in connection with the closing of VOI sales, servicing notes receivable held by third parties, typically for a fee equal to 1.5% to 2.5% of the principal balance of the serviced portfolio, and construction management services for third-party developers, typically for fees equal to 3% of the cost of construction of the project. We also receive revenues from retail and food and beverage outlets at certain resorts.
Customer Financing
We generally offer qualified purchasers financing for up to 90% of the purchase price of VOIs. The typical financing provides for a term of ten years and a fixed interest rate that is determined by the FICO score of the borrower, the term of the loan and the amount of the down payment. Purchasers may receive an additional 1% discount in the interest rate by participating in our pre-authorized payment plan. As of December 31, 2016, 95% of our serviced VOI notes receivable participated in our pre-authorized payment plan. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the weighted-average interest rate on our VOI notes receivable was 15.7%. Our typical VOI note receivable has a term of ten years, has a fixed interest rate, is fully amortizing in equal installments, and may be prepaid without penalty.
VOI purchasers are generally required to make a down payment of at least 10% of the sales price. As part of our continued efforts to manage operating cash flows, we incentivize our sales associates to encourage cash sales and higher down payments on financed sales, with a target of 40-45% of the VOI sales price collected in cash. We also promote a point-of-sale credit card program sponsored by a third-party financial institution. As a result of these efforts, we have increased both the percentage of sales that are fully paid in cash and the average down payment on financed sales. Including down payments received on financed sales, approximately 41% of our system-wide sales of VOIs, net during the year ended December 31, 2016 were paid in cash within approximately 30 days from the contract date.
76

TABLE OF CONTENTS
See “Sales/Financing of Receivables” below for additional information regarding our receivable financing activities.
Loan Underwriting
We generally do not originate financing to customers with FICO scores below 575. We may provide financing to customers with no FICO score if the customer makes a minimum required down payment of 20%. For loans made during 2016, the borrowers’ weighted-average FICO score after a 30-day, “same as cash” period from the point of sale was 712. Further information is set forth in the following table:

(1)
Excludes loans for which the obligor did not have a FICO score. For 2016, approximately 2% of our VOI notes receivable related to financing provided to borrowers with no FICO score.
Collection Policies
Financed VOI sales originated by us typically utilize a note and mortgage. Collection efforts related to these VOI loans are managed by us. Our collectors are incentivized through a performance-based compensation program.
We generally make collection efforts to Vacation Club owners with outstanding loans secured by their VOI by email, mail and telephone. Telephone and email contact generally commences when an account is as few as ten days past due. At 30 days past due, we mail a collection letter to the owner advising that if the loan is not brought current, the delinquency will be reported to the credit reporting agencies. At 60 days past due, we mail a letter to the owner advising that he or she may be prohibited from making future reservations for lodging at a resort. At 90 days past due, we stop the accrual of, and reverse previously accrued but unpaid, interest on the note receivable and mail a notice informing the owner that unless the delinquency is cured within 30 days, we will terminate the underlying VOI ownership. If an owner fails to bring the account current within the given timeframe, the loan is defaulted and the owner’s VOI is terminated. In that case, we mail a final letter, typically at approximately 120 days past due, notifying the owner of the loan default and the termination of his or her beneficial interest in the VOI property. Thereafter, we seek to resell the VOI to a new purchaser. As of, December 31, 2016, we had 25 employees focused on collections.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Under vacation ownership accounting rules, we estimate uncollectible VOI notes receivable based on historical amounts for similar VOI notes receivable and do not consider the value of the underlying collateral. We hold large pools of homogeneous VOI notes receivable and assess uncollectibility based on pools of receivables. In estimating future credit losses, we evaluate a combination of factors, including a static pool analysis, the aging of the respective receivables, current default trends, prepayment rates by origination year and the borrowers’ FICO scores.
Substantially all defaulted VOI notes receivable result in the holder of such receivable acquiring the related VOI that secured such receivable, typically soon after default and at little or no cost. The reacquired VOI is then available for resale in the normal course of business.
See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional information about the performance of our notes receivable portfolio.
Sales/Financing of Receivables
Our ability to sell or borrow against our VOI notes receivable has historically been an important factor in meeting our liquidity requirements. The vacation ownership business generally involves sales where a buyer is only required to pay 10% of the purchase price up front, while at the same time selling and
77

TABLE OF CONTENTS
marketing expenses related to such sales are primarily cash expenses that exceed the down payment amount. For the year ended December 31, 2016, our sales and marketing expenses totaled approximately 52% of system-wide sales of VOIs, net. Accordingly, having facilities for the sale or hypothecation of VOI notes receivable, along with periodic term securitization transactions, has been a critical factor in meeting our short and long-term cash needs. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional information about our VOI notes receivable purchase facilities and term securitizations.
Receivables Servicing
Receivables servicing includes collecting payments from borrowers and remitting the funds to the owners, lenders or investors in such receivables, accounting for principal and interest on such receivables, making advances when required, contacting delinquent borrowers, terminating a Vacation Club ownership in the event that defaults are not timely remedied and performing other administrative duties.
We receive fees for servicing our securitized notes receivable that are included as a component of interest income. Additionally, we earn servicing fee income from third-party developers in connection with our servicing of their loan portfolios under certain fee-based services arrangements, which is netted against the cost of our mortgage servicing operations.
Our Core Operating and Growth Strategies
Grow VOI sales
We intend to utilize our proven sales and marketing platform to continue our strong history of VOI sales growth through the expansion of existing alliances, continued development of new marketing programs and sales to our existing Vacation Club owners. We believe there are a number of opportunities within our existing marketing alliances to drive future growth, including the expansion of our marketing efforts with Bass Pro to include programs focused on Bass Pro’s e-commerce platform. In addition, through our agreement with Choice Hotels, we plan to enhance our marketing program through further penetration of Choice Hotels’ digital and call-transfer programs. In addition to existing programs, we plan to utilize our sales and marketing expertise to continue to identify unique marketing relationships with nationally-recognized brands that resonate with our core demographic. In addition, we actively seek to sell additional VOI points to existing Vacation Club owners, which typically involve significantly lower marketing costs and have higher conversion rates compared to sales to new customers. We are also committed to continually expanding and updating our sales offices to more effectively convert tours generated from our marketing programs into sales. We continue to identify high traffic resorts where we believe increased investment in sales office infrastructure will yield strong sales results.
Continue to enhance the Vacation Club experience
We believe our Vacation Club offers owners exceptional value. Our Vacation Club offers owners access to our 42 Club Resorts and 24 Club Associate Resorts in premier vacation destinations, as well as access to approximately 11,000 other hotels and resorts and other vacation experiences such as cruises through partnerships and exchange networks. We continuously seek new ways to add value and flexibility to our Vacation Club membership and enhance the vacation experience of our Vacation Club owners, including the addition of new destinations, the expansion of our exchange programs and the addition of new partnerships to offer increased vacation options. We also continuously improve our technology, including websites and applications, to enhance our Vacation Club owners’ experiences. We believe this focus, combined with our high-quality customer service, will continue to enhance the Vacation Club experience, driving sales to new owners and additional sales to existing Vacation Club owners.
Grow our high-margin, cash generating businesses
We seek to continue to grow our ancillary businesses, including resort management, title services and loan servicing. We believe these businesses can grow with little additional investment in our corporate infrastructure and will produce high-margin revenues.
78

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Increase sales and operating efficiencies across all customer touch-points
We actively seek to improve our operational execution across all aspects of our business. In our sales and marketing platform, we utilize a variety of screening methods and data-driven analyses to attract high-quality prospects to our sales offices in an effort to increase VPG. We also continue to test new and innovative methods to generate sales prospects with a focus on increasing cost efficiency. In connection with our management services and consumer financing activities, we will continue to leverage our size, infrastructure and expertise to increase operating efficiency and profitability. In addition, as we expand, we expect to gain further operational efficiencies by streamlining our support operations such as call centers, customer service, administration and information technology.
Maintain operational flexibility while growing our business
We believe we have built a flexible business model that allows us to capitalize on opportunities and quickly adapt to changing market environments. We intend to continue to pursue growth through a balanced mix of capital-light sales vs. developed VOI sales, sales to new customers vs. sales to existing Vacation Club owners and cash sales vs. financed sales. While we may from time to time pursue opportunities that impact our short-term results, our long-term goal is to achieve sustained growth while maximizing earnings and cash flow.
Pursue strategic transactions
With a disciplined approach to capital allocation, we will continue to pursue acquisitions that meet our high-quality standards and that we believe will provide value to our Vacation Club owners or drive increased tour flow and sales. We may seek acquisitions of resort assets, sales and marketing platforms, management companies and contracts, and other assets, properties and businesses, including where we believe significant synergies and cost savings may be available. We may choose to pursue acquisitions directly or in partnership with third-party developers or others, including pursuant to arrangements where third-party developers purchase the resort assets and we sell the VOIs in the acquired resort on a commission basis. We have a long history of successfully identifying, acquiring and integrating complementary businesses, and our flexible sales and marketing platform enables us to complete these transactions in a variety of economic conditions.
Industry Overview
The vacation ownership, or timeshare, industry is one of the fastest growing segments of the global travel and tourism sector. By purchasing a VOI, the purchaser typically acquires either (i) a fee simple interest in a property (or collection of properties) providing annual usage rights at the owner’s home resort (where the owner’s VOI is deeded), or (ii) an annual or biennial allotment of points that can be redeemed for stays at properties included in the vacation ownership company’s resort network or for other vacation options available through exchange programs. Compared to hotel rooms, vacation ownership units typically offer more spacious floor plans and residential features, such as living rooms, fully equipped kitchens and dining areas. Compared to owning a vacation home in its entirety, the key advantages of vacation ownership products typically include a lower up-front acquisition cost and annual expenses, resort-style features and services and, often, an established infrastructure to exchange usage rights for stays across multiple locations.
The vacation ownership industry was historically highly fragmented, with a large number of local and regional resort developers and operators having small resort portfolios of varying quality. We believe that growth in the vacation ownership industry has been driven by increased interest from resort developers and globally recognized lodging and entertainment brands, increased interest from consumers seeking flexible vacation options, continued product evolution and geographic expansion. Due to these factors, VOI sales have grown 800% over the last 30 years. In 2016, more than 9.2 million families (approximately 6.9% of U.S.households) owned at least one VOI.
As reflected in the chart below, the U.S. vacation ownership industry experienced a contraction in sales as a result of the economic recession in 2008 and 2009, during which time we and many other vacation ownership companies and resort developers reduced liquidity needs by managing businesses at lower tour

flow and sales levels by removing less efficient sales channels, closing underperforming sales centers, cutting inventory spending and reducing development activity. Increasing demand for VOIs and favorable macroeconomic trends, including increased discretionary income, improving consumer confidence and a shifting preference among consumers for increased spending on leisure, have led to strong industry growth since 2009. However, because sales remain below the peak level reached in 2007, we believe there remains sustained opportunity for additional growth.
[MISSING IMAGE: C477136_BAR-OWNERSHIP.JPG]
While the majority of VOI owners are over the age of 50, new owners are an average of approximately 10 years younger, with 39% between the ages of 35 and 49 and 30% under the age of 35. VOI owners have an average household income of  $90,000 and 90% of VOI owners own their own home.
Regulation
The vacation ownership and real estate industries are subject to extensive and complex governmental regulation. We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental, zoning, consumer protection and other laws, rules and regulations, including those regarding the acquisition, marketing and sale of real estate and VOIs, as well as various aspects of our financing operations. At the federal level, the Federal Trade Commission has taken an active regulatory role through the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or unfair competition in interstate commerce. In addition, many states have what are known as “Little FTC Acts” that apply to intrastate activity.
In addition to the laws applicable to our customer financing and other operations discussed below, we are or may be subject to the Fair Housing Act and various other federal laws, rules and regulations. We are also subject to various foreign laws with respect to La Cabana Beach Resort and Casino in Oranjestad, Aruba and Blue Water Resort at Cable Beach in Nassau, Bahamas. Additionally, in the future, VOIs may be deemed to be securities subject to regulation as such, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. The cost of complying with applicable laws and regulations may be significant and we may not maintain compliance at all times with all applicable laws, including those discussed below. Any failure to comply with current or future applicable laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our vacation ownership resorts are subject to various regulatory requirements, including state and local approvals. The laws of most states require us to file a detailed offering statement describing our business and all material aspects of the project and sale of VOIs with a designated state authority. In addition, when required by state law, we provide our VOI purchasers with a public disclosure statement that contains, among other items, detailed information about the applicable resort, the surrounding vicinity and the purchaser’s rights and obligations as a VOI owner. Laws in each state where we sell VOIs generally grant the purchaser of a VOI the right to cancel a purchase contract at any time within a specified rescission period following the earlier of the date the contract was signed or the date the purchaser received the last of the documents required to be provided by us. Most states have other laws that regulate our activities, including real estate licensure requirements, sellers of travel licensure requirements, anti-fraud laws, telemarketing laws, prize, gift and sweepstakes laws, and labor laws.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, the owner of real property is generally liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances located on or in, or emanating from, the property, as well as related costs of investigation and property damage. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the property owner knew of the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate these substances, may adversely affect a property owner’s ability to sell or lease a property or to borrow using the real property as collateral. Other federal and state laws require the removal or encapsulation of asbestos-containing material when such material is in poor condition or in the event of construction, demolition, remodeling or renovation. Other statutes may require the removal of underground storage tanks. Noncompliance with any of these and other environmental, health or safety requirements may result in the need to cease or alter operations or development at a property. In addition, certain state and local laws may impose liability on property developers with respect to construction defects discovered on the property or repairs made by future owners of such property. Under these laws, we may be required to pay for repairs to the developed property. The development, management and operation of our resorts are also subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Our marketing, sales and customer financing activities are also subject to extensive regulation, which can include, but is not limited to: the Truth-in-Lending Act and Regulation Z; the Fair Housing Act; the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act; the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Regulation B; the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E; the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and Regulation C; the Dodd-Frank Act; Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices and Regulation AA; the Patriot Act; the Right to Financial Privacy Act; the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act; the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act; and anti-money laundering laws. The Dodd-Frank Act contains significant changes to the regulation of financial institutions and related entities, including the creation of new federal regulatory agencies, and the granting of additional authorities and responsibilities to existing regulatory agencies to identify and address emerging systemic risks posed by the activities of financial services firms. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) is one such regulatory agency created pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act. The CFPB’s mandate is to protect consumers by carrying out federal consumer financial laws and to publish rules and forms that facilitate understanding of the financial implications of the transactions consumers enter into. Consistent with this mission, the CFPB amended Regulations X and Z to establish new disclosure requirements and forms pursuant to Regulation Z for most closed-end consumer credit transactions secured by real property. The practical impact upon us is the requirement to use a new Integrated Mortgage Disclosure Statement in lieu of the separate Good Faith Estimate and Closing Statement. No assurance can be given that we will be in compliance with the Dodd-Frank Act or other applicable laws or that compliance with these rules or the promulgation of additional standards by the CFPB will not have an adverse impact on our business. In addition, our term securitization transactions must comply with certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, including risk retention rules.
Our management of, and dealings with, HOAs, including our purchase of defaulted inventory from HOAs in connection with our secondary market arrangements, is subject to state laws and resort rules and regulations, including those with respect to the establishment of budgets and expenditures, rule-making and the imposition of maintenance assessments.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, approximately 7% of our VOI sales were generated by marketing to prospective purchasers obtained through internal and third-party vendors’ outbound telemarketing efforts. We attempt to monitor the actions and legal and regulatory compliance of these third parties, but there are risks associated with our and such third parties’ telemarketing efforts. In recent years, state and federal regulators have increased regulations and enforcement actions related to telemarketing operations, including requiring the adherence to state “do not call” laws. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission and Federal Communications Commission have implemented national “do not call” legislation. These measures have significantly increased the costs associated with telemarketing. While we continue to be subject to telemarketing risks and potential liability, we believe our exposure to adverse impacts from this heightened telemarketing legislation and enforcement may be partially mitigated by the use of  “permission marketing,” whereby we obtain the permission of prospective purchasers to contact them in the future, thereby exempting such calls from the various “do not call” laws. We have also
81

TABLE OF CONTENTS
implemented policies and procedures that we believe will help reduce the possibility that individuals who have requested to be placed on a “do not call” list are not contacted, but such policies and procedures may not be effective in ensuring strict regulatory compliance.
To date, no material fines or penalties have been imposed on us as a result of our telemarketing operations. However, from time to time, we have been the subject of proceedings for violation of the “do not call” laws and other state laws applicable to the marketing and sale of VOIs. We may not be able to efficiently or effectively market to prospective purchasers through telemarketing operations in the future or to successfully develop alternative sources of identifying and marketing to prospective purchasers of our VOI products at acceptable costs. In addition, we may face significant non-compliance issues or additional costs of compliance, which may adversely impact our results and operations in the future.
See “Risk Factors” for a description of additional risks with respect to regulatory compliance.
Competition
We compete with various high profile and well-established firms, many of which have greater liquidity and financial resources than we do. Many of the world’s most recognized lodging, hospitality and entertainment companies develop and sell VOIs in resort properties. Major companies that now operate, or are developing or planning to develop, vacation ownership resorts directly or through subsidiaries include Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation, the Walt Disney Company, Hilton Grand Vacations, Wyndham Vacation Ownership, ILG and Diamond Resorts International. We also compete with numerous smaller owners and operators of vacation ownership resorts. In our fee-based services business, we typically compete with Hilton Grand Vacations and Wyndham Vacation Ownership. In addition to competing for sales leads, prospects and fee-based service clients, we compete with other VOI developers for marketing, sales and resort management personnel.
Seasonality
We have historically experienced, and expect to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations in our revenues and results of operations. This seasonality has resulted, and may continue to result, in fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. Although more potential customers typically visit our sales offices during the quarters ending in June and September, our ultimate recognition of the resulting sales during these periods may be delayed due to down payment requirements for recognition of real estate sales under GAAP or due to the timing of development and required use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.
Employees
As of December 31, 2016, we had 5,729 employees, 549 of whom were located at our headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida, and 5,180 of whom were located in regional field offices throughout the United States and Aruba. As of December 31, 2016, approximately 30 of our employees were covered by two collective bargaining agreements, which address the terms and conditions of their employment, including pay rates, working hours, certain employee benefits and procedures for settlement of labor disputes. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.
Company History
We were organized in 1985 as a Massachusetts corporation named Patten Corporation, primarily focused on retail land sales to consumers. In 1994, we entered into the vacation ownership industry. In 1996, we changed our name to Bluegreen Corporation. From 1986 through April 2, 2013, our common stock was publicly listed and traded on the NYSE. On April 2, 2013, Woodbridge acquired all of the shares of our common stock not previously owned by it, and we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge. Woodbridge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX), a Florida-based publicly traded diversified holding company. On March 10, 2014, we were redomiciled from a Massachusetts corporation to a Florida corporation. On September 25, 2017, we changed our name to Bluegreen Vacations Corporation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Properties
Our principal executive office is located in Boca Raton, Florida in 159,000 square feet of leased space. As of December 31, 2016, we also maintained sales offices at or near 23 of our resorts, as well as regional administrative offices in Orlando, Florida and Indianapolis, Indiana. See “Our Product — Vacation Club Resorts” above for information regarding the resorts that are a part of our Vacation Club.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we become subject to or receive notice of: (i) claims or proceedings relating to the purchase, sale, marketing or financing of VOIs and our other business activities; (ii) disputes with existing and former employees, vendors, taxing jurisdictions and various other parties; and (iii) individual consumer complaints, as well as complaints received through regulatory and consumer agencies, including Offices of State Attorneys General. We are also subject to certain matters relating to our former Bluegreen Communities’ business, substantially all of the assets of which were sold during May 2012. We take these matters seriously and attempt to resolve any such issues as they arise. Unless otherwise described below, we believe that these claims are routine proceedings incidental to our business.
Commencing in 2015, it came to our attention that our collection efforts with respect to our VOI notes receivable were being impacted by a then emerging, industry-wide trend involving the receipt of  “cease and desist” letters from attorneys purporting to represent certain VOI owners. Following receipt of these letters, we are unable to contact the owners unless allowed by law. We believe these attorneys have encouraged such owners to become delinquent and ultimately default on their obligations and that such actions and our inability to contact the owners are a primary contributor to the increase in our annual default rates. Our average annual default rates have increased from 6.9% in 2015 to 8.0% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2017. We also estimate that approximately 12% of the total delinquencies on our VOI notes receivable as of June 30, 2017 related to VOI notes receivable subject to these letters. We have in a number of cases pursued, and we may in the future pursue, legal action against the VOI owners.
Reserves are accrued for matters in which our management believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Our management does not believe that the aggregate liability relating to known contingencies in excess of the aggregate amounts accrued will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. However, litigation is inherently uncertain, and the actual costs of resolving legal claims, including awards of damages, may be substantially higher than the amounts accrued and may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
Our management is not at this time able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to matters in which it is reasonably possible that a loss will occur. In certain matters, our management is unable to estimate the loss or reasonable range of loss until additional developments provide information sufficient to support an assessment of the loss or range of loss. Frequently in these matters, the claims are broad and the plaintiffs have not quantified or factually supported their claim.
Whitney Paxton and Jeff Reeser, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, v. Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc., Phillip Hicks and Todd Smith, Case No. 3:16-CV-523-HSM-HBG, United States District Court, Eastern District of Tennessee at Knoxville.
On August 24, 2016, Whitney Paxton and Jeff Reeser filed a lawsuit against Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. (“BVU”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, and certain of its employees (collectively, the “Defendants”), seeking to establish a class action of former and current employees of BVU and alleging violations of plaintiffs’ rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (the “FLSA”) and breach of contract. The lawsuit also claims that Defendants terminated plaintiff Whitney Paxton as retaliation for her complaints about alleged violations of the FLSA. The lawsuit seeks damages in the amount of the unpaid compensation owed to plaintiffs. During July 2017, a magistrate judge entered a report and recommendation that the plaintiffs’ motion to conditionally certify collective action and facilitate notice to potential class members be granted with respect to certain employees and denied as to others. During September 2017, the judge accepted the recommendation and granted preliminary approval of class certification. We believe that the lawsuit is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the action.

Michael Vederman, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v. Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc., Case No.: 9:17-cv-81025-WPD, United States District Court, Southern District of Florida
On September 13, 2017, Michael Vederman filed a putative class action lawsuit against BVU which alleges that BVU made multiple unsolicited calls to the plaintiff and other members of the putative class who are registered on the do not call registry in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. The lawsuit seeks damages for each violation as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. We believe that the lawsuit is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the action.

Bluegreen Corporation, Case No.: 9:17-cv-81055, United States District Court, Southern District of Florida
On September 22, 2017, the plaintiffs named in the caption above filed a lawsuit against us which asserts claims for alleged violations of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act and the Florida False Advertising Law. In the complaint, the plaintiffs allege the making of false representations in connection with our sales of VOIs, including representations regarding the ability to use points for stays or other experiences with other vacation providers, the ability to cancel VOI purchases and receive a refund of the purchase price, the ability to roll over unused points and that annual maintenance fees would not increase. The complaint seeks to establish a class of consumers who, since the beginning of the applicable statute of limitations, have purchased VOIs from us, had their annual maintenance fees relating to our VOIs increased, or were unable to roll over their unused points to the next calendar year. The lawsuit alleges damages are in excess of  $5,000,000 and seeks damages in the amount alleged to have been improperly obtained by us, as well as any statutory enhanced damages, attorneys’ fees and costs, and equitable and injunctive relief. We believe that the lawsuit is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the action.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Director Independence
The listing rules of the NYSE generally require that a majority of the members of a listed company’s board of directors be independent within specified periods following the closing of an initial public offering. In addition, the listing rules generally require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating/corporate governance committees be independent.
Our board of directors has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Allmand, Becker, Cirillo, Nerenhausen, Sevell and Sharpe, who together comprise a majority of our board, are “independent” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE. Our board of directors also determined that Messrs. Becker, Cirillo, Sevell and Sharpe, who comprise our audit committee, Messrs. Sevell, Allmand and Becker, who comprise our compensation committee, and Messrs. Allmand, Cirillo and Sevell, who comprise our nominating/corporate governance committee, all satisfy the independence standards for such committees established by the SEC and the rules of the NYSE, as applicable. In making such determinations, our board of directors considered the relationships that each such non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining independence. In determining Mr. Becker’s independence, our board of directors specifically considered the fact that he serves on the board of directors and certain committees of BBX Capital and is compensated by BBX Capital for such service. Mr. Alan Levan, our Chairman, Mr. Abdo, our Vice Chairman, and Mr. Jarett Levan and Mr. Wise, members of our board of directors, are executive officers and directors of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX). BBX Capital is the parent company of Woodbridge, which currently owns 100% of our common stock and is expected to own approximately % of our outstanding common stock immediately following this offering (or % if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full). See “Controlled Company” below.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We have a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The code of business conduct and ethics will be available following this offering on our website at www.bluegreenvacations.com. We will post amendments to or waivers from the code of business conduct and ethics (to the extent applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer) on our website.
Committees of our Board of Directors
Our board of directors has established standing audit, compensation and nominating/corporate governance committees. Our board of directors has adopted a written charter for each committee and corporate governance guidelines that address the make-up and functioning of our board of directors. Following this offering, the committee charters and corporate governance guidelines will be posted on our website at www.bluegreenvacations.com and will be available in print, without charge, to any shareholder.
Audit Committee
Our audit committee consists of Mr. Becker, Chairman, and Messrs. Cirillo, Sevell and Sharpe. Our board of directors has determined that all members of our audit committee are “financially literate” and “independent” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Mr. Becker has been determined to qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, and our board of directors has determined that he has finance and accounting expertise and “financial sophistication” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE.
Our audit committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent auditor. Additionally, our audit committee assists board oversight of: (i) the integrity of our financial statements; (ii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (iii) the qualifications, performance and independence of our independent auditor; and (iv) the performance of our internal audit function. In connection with these oversight functions, our audit committee receives reports from and meets with our internal audit group, management and our independent auditor. Our audit

TABLE OF CONTENTS
committee receives information concerning internal controls over financial reporting and any deficiencies in such controls and has adopted a complaint monitoring procedure that enables confidential and anonymous reporting to our audit committee of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.
Compensation Committee
Our compensation committee consists of Mr. Sevell, Chairman, and Messrs. Allmand and Becker. Our board of directors has determined that all members of our compensation committee are “independent” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE, “Non-Employee Directors,” as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and “outside directors,” as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Our compensation committee provides assistance to our board of directors in fulfilling its responsibilities relating to the compensation of our executive officers. It reviews and determines the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and determines or makes recommendations with respect to the compensation of our other executive officers. It also administers our annual incentive plan and is expected to administer any equity-based compensation plans that we may adopt in the future.
Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee
Our nominating/corporate governance committee consists of Mr. Allmand, Chairman, and Messrs. Cirillo and Sevell. Our board of directors has determined that all of the members of our nominating/​corporate governance committee are “independent” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE.
Our nominating/corporate governance committee is responsible for assisting our board of directors in identifying individuals qualified to become directors, making recommendations of candidates for directorships, developing and recommending a set of corporate governance principles to our board of directors, overseeing the evaluation of our board of directors and management, overseeing the selection, composition and evaluation of board committees and overseeing the management continuity and succession planning process.
Our nominating/corporate governance committee reviews, following the end of each fiscal year, the composition of our board of directors and the ability of its current members to continue effectively as directors for the upcoming fiscal year. If our nominating/corporate governance committee thinks it is in our best interest to nominate a new individual for director, or fill a vacancy on our board of directors which may exist from time to time, it will consider potential candidates for board appointments who meet the criteria for selection as a nominee and have the specific qualities or skills sought.
Controlled Company
Because Woodbridge, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX), will own more than 50% of our common stock following this offering, we may, as permitted by the listing standards of the NYSE, avail ourselves of  “controlled company” exemptions, pursuant to which we may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards otherwise required by the NYSE, including the requirement to have a majority of  “independent directors,” a compensation committee composed entirely of  “independent directors” with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities, a nominating/​corporate governance committee composed entirely of  “independent directors” with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities, and annual performance evaluations of our compensation committee and nominating/corporate governance committee. While we currently do not intend to take advantage of any of the exemptions permitted to controlled companies, we may in the future determine from time to time to avail ourselves of one or more of such exemptions.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of the members of our compensation committee are current or former officers or employees of our Company or any of our subsidiaries. In addition, there are no interlocking or other relationships or transactions involving the members of our compensation committee required to be disclosed under Item 407(e)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
The annual base salaries of the Named Executive Officers are set forth in the “Salary” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above. Under their respective employment agreements, Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius may receive an annual bonus (sometimes hereinafter referred to as an “Annual Bonus”) of up to a certain percentage of his then-current annual base salary. Such percentage is approved annually by our compensation committee and, for 2016, was 150% for Mr. Puleo and 165% for Mr. Pontius. The Annual Bonuses are discretionary bonuses based on a subjective evaluation of the executive’s overall performance in areas outside those that are objectively measured from or calculated based on a formula or criteria tied to financial results. Based on such evaluation, for 2016, our compensation committee approved the payment in full of the Annual Bonuses to each of Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius.
As described above, in addition to Annual Bonuses, the Named Executive Officers may also receive additional bonuses from time to time as approved by our compensation committee, including special discretionary cash bonuses and cash bonuses under incentive plans in place from time to time. For 2016, each of Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius received a special discretionary cash bonus of  $2,046,154, which is included, together with their respective Annual Bonuses, in the “Bonus” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above. In addition, as described under “Cash Incentive Programs” below, each of Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius received a cash bonus of  $926,715 under our cash incentive program for 2016, which is included in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above.
In connection with his promotion to Chief Operating Officer during September 2017, it is expected that, subject to the approval of our compensation committee, Mr. Pontius’ annual base salary will be increased to $650,000 and his maximum Annual Bonus will be set at $975,000, or 150% of his annual base salary. It is also expected that Mr. Pontius will receive a $300,000 signing bonus in connection with his promotion.
Pursuant to the employment agreements with Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius, if the executive’s employment is terminated by us without “Cause” (as defined in the employment agreement) or by the executive for “Good Reason” (as defined in the employment agreement), the executive will be entitled to receive, in addition to his base salary through the date of termination, a severance payment in an amount equal to 1.0 times (or 1.5 times if the termination occurs within two years after a “Change in Control” (as defined in the employment agreement)) the sum of  (a) his annual base salary then in effect and (b) the average Annual Bonus paid to him during the two years prior to the termination. In addition, if the employment agreement is terminated by us without “Cause” or by the executive for “Good Reason” after the last day of the earnings period for, but prior to payment of, the Annual Bonus, the executive will be entitled to receive such Annual Bonus. Further, in the event of a termination by us without “Cause” or a termination by the executive for “Good Reason” at any time, we will pay the executive’s COBRA premiums for 12 months following the date of termination. In addition, upon the executive’s death or “Disability” (as defined in his employment agreement), the executive or his estate, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive the pro rata portion of the executive’s Annual Bonus for the applicable year based generally on the number of days the executive was employed during the year. These severance payments and benefits are conditioned upon the executive executing a general release in our favor, as well as his compliance with certain restrictive covenants set forth in his employment agreement, including confidentiality obligations and non-solicit, non-disparagement and non-interference covenants.
Prior to his retirement in September 2017, we had an employment agreement with Mr. Bidgood which was substantially the same as our employment agreements with Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius. The annual base salary paid to Mr. Bidgood for 2016 under his employment agreement is set forth in the “Salary” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above. Mr. Bidgood’s Annual Bonus opportunity for 2016 was in an amount equal to 309% of his annual base salary. Based on our compensation committee’s evaluation of Mr. Bidgood’s performance, our compensation committee approved the payment in full of the Annual Bonus to Mr. Bidgood for 2016. Mr. Bidgood also received for 2016 a one-time special discretionary cash bonus of  $2,046,154, which is included, together with his Annual Bonus, in the “Bonus” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above. In addition, Mr. Bidgood received a cash bonus of  $926,715 under our cash incentive program for 2016, which is included in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” above.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
During September 2017, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Bidgood in connection with his retirement. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we will make payments to Mr. Bidgood totaling approximately $2.9 million between October 2017 and March 2019, which include payments in the amount contemplated by his employment agreement in connection with a termination without “Cause” and payments in consideration for Mr. Bidgood’s entry into a two-year non-competition agreement. In addition, in lieu of paying COBRA premiums on Mr. Bidgood’s behalf, we will pay Mr. Bidgood an amount equal to the total dollar amount of such premiums for period of 18 months. Further, Mr. Bidgood will continue to be eligible to receive Liquidity Event Awards (as described and defined below under “Cash Incentive Programs”) under our 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2011 LTIP”) upon the occurrence of a “Liquidity Event” (as defined in the 2011 LTIP), if any, which is completed pursuant to a definitive agreement entered into prior to September 8, 2019. The agreement also contains a general release by Mr. Bidgood in our favor and certain restrictive covenants in addition to his agreement not to compete, including confidentiality obligations and non-solicit, non-disparagement and non-interference covenants.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
Information regarding payments made or to be made by us, and benefits provided or to be provided by us, to Mr. Bidgood in connection with his retirement, as well as payment and benefits to which each of Mr. Puleo and Mr. Pontius may be entitled in connection with any termination of his employment, including following a change in control of our Company, is set forth under “Employment Agreements” above. Each of Mr. Puleo, Mr. Pontius and Mr. Bidgood may also be entitled to payments under our 2011 LTIP upon the occurrence of a “Liquidity Event” (as defined in the 2011 LTIP). See also “401(k) Plan” below.
Cash Incentive Programs
During 2011, our compensation committee approved and adopted the 2011 LTIP, which was subsequently approved by our shareholders during 2012. The 2011 LTIP was designed to provide certain members of senior management selected by our compensation committee (“Participants”), the administrative committee for the 2011 LTIP, with incentives based on the achievement of certain financial targets relating to our business and operations. Under the 2011 LTIP, Participants were allocated points representing fractional interests in amounts payable under the plan. With respect to each calendar year, which represented a “Performance Period” under the 2011 LTIP, award amounts (“Performance Period Awards”) were payable based on our actual EBITDA as compared to our target EBITDA (in each case, as defined in the 2011 LTIP), subject to available free cash and certain other conditions specified in the 2011 LTIP. While the 2011 LTIP expired following the 2015 Performance Period with respect to Performance Period Awards, our compensation committee approved a cash incentive program for 2016 which provided for the payment of cash awards to certain members of our senior management, including the Named Executive Officers, based on the achievement of performance objectives related to our EBITDA and free cash flow in substantially the same manner in which the 2011 LTIP operated for Performance Period Awards. As previously described, each Named Executive Officer received a cash bonus of  $926,715 under the cash incentive program adopted by our compensation committee for 2016. Subject to the approval of our compensation committee, we currently anticipate to continue to utilize such methodology for future bonus payments based on our EBITDA and/or free cash performance. In addition, following this offering, certain of our executives, including our Chief Executive Officer, may be eligible to receive cash bonuses based, in whole or in part, on the market price of our common stock.
While the 2011 LTIP has expired with respect to the payment of Performance Period Awards, the 2011 LTIP continues in effect with respect to the potential payment of cash awards to Participants, including the Named Executive Officers, upon the occurrence of a “Liquidity Event” (“Liquidity Event Awards”). As defined in the 2011 LTIP, a “Liquidity Event” includes, without limitation, the sale of our Company or our businesses (whether by merger, consolidation, reorganization, stock or asset sale, or similar corporate transaction). The amount of a Liquidity Event Award is primarily based on the consideration received by us or our shareholders, as applicable, in connection with the Liquidity Event and the cumulative EBITDA ratio described above for the Performance Periods prior to the Liquidity Event. The provisions of the 2011 LTIP relating to Liquidity Event Awards will continue in effect until the last payment of a Liquidity Event Award, unless earlier terminated by our compensation committee in its discretion.
93

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Subject to the terms of the 2011 LTIP, the award agreements thereunder and the severance agreement expected to be entered into with Mr. Bidgood, if a Liquidity Event were to occur, the Named Executive Officers would collectively be entitled to Liquidity Event Awards in an amount of up to approximately 4% of the total consideration received by us and/or our shareholders in connection with the Liquidity Event to the extent in excess of  $100.0 million. Other executive officers and employees of the Company may also be entitled to payments in connection with a change in control or sale of our Company or our businesses under the 2011 LTIP or other compensation plans, including profit sharing plans, or arrangements.
401(k) Plan
We maintain a retirement plan for the benefit of our employees, including the Named Executive Officers. The 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified 401(k) plan so that contributions to the 401(k) plan, and income earned on such contributions, are not taxable to participants until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. The 401(k) plan provides that each participant may contribute up to 100% of his or her pre-tax compensation, subject to an annual statutory limit. Participants who are at least 50 years old can also contribute additional amounts based on statutory limits for “catch-up” contributions. Under the 401(k) plan, each employee is fully vested in his or her deferred salary contributions. Employee contributions are held and invested by the 401(k) plan’s trustee as directed by participants. Our 401(k) plan allows for discretionary matching of employee contributions. For 2016, we made a basic matching contribution equal to 100% of each participant’s contributions not exceeding 3% of such participant’s compensation, plus 50% of the participant’s contributions in excess of 3% but not in excess of 5% of the participant’s compensation. We may also make additional discretionary matching contributions not to exceed 4% of each participant’s compensation.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Year-End 2016
None of the Named Executive Officers held any equity or equity-based awards with respect to our Company as of December 31, 2016.
Compensation of Chief Executive Officer
As previously described, Shawn B. Pearson was appointed our Chief Executive Officer and President in February 2017. Mr. Pearson currently receives an annual base salary of  $925,000 and we have committed to pay him an aggregate bonus of  $1,175,000 for his services during 2017. In addition, as described above, it is expected that, following this offering. Mr. Pearson may be eligible to receive cash bonuses based, in whole or in part, on the market price of our common stock. We reimburse Mr. Pearson for certain housing and travel expenses, which we currently estimate will total approximately $125,000 for 2017.
Compensation of Directors
The compensation policy for our non-employee directors (which we define as directors who are not employees of our Company or any entity controlling our Company, including BBX Capital) was designed in an attempt to achieve the following goals: (i) compensation should fairly pay directors for work required by a company of similar size and scope to our Company; (ii) compensation should align directors’ interests with the long-term interests of our shareholders; and (iii) the structure of the compensation should be simple, transparent and easy for shareholders to understand.
We currently compensate our non-employee directors through cash fees. Each non-employee director currently earns $70,000 in cash fees annually for his service on our board of directors. In addition, we currently compensate our directors for their services on board committees as follows. Members of our audit committee, other than its Chairman, receive $10,000 in cash annually. The Chairman of our audit committee receives $15,000 in cash annually. The Chairman of our nominating/corporate governance committee and the Chairman of our compensation committee each receive $3,500 in cash annually. Other members of our nominating/corporate governance committee and compensation committee do not currently receive additional compensation for their service on those committees. Directors do not receive additional compensation for attendance at board or committee meetings.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions
We have a policy in place for the review of relationships and transactions in which (i) we are a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeds or is expected to exceed $120,000 annually and (iii) any of our directors or executive officers, or any of their immediate family members, have or will have a direct or indirect material interest (each, a “related party transaction”). Any related party transaction is to be for our benefit and upon terms no less favorable to us than if the related party transaction was with an unrelated party.
As set forth in their respective charters, our audit committee, in the case of related party transactions which present issues regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, or our nominating/corporate governance committee, in the case of all other related party transactions, reviews and, if the reviewing committee determines to be appropriate, approves (or ratifies) related party transactions. The reviewing committee considers the nature of the related party’s interest in the transaction, the material terms of the transaction, including, without limitation, the amount involved and type of transaction, and the arms-length nature thereof, the importance of the transaction to the related party, the importance of the transaction to us, whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in our best interest and any other matters the reviewing committee deems appropriate. Any member of the reviewing committee who is a related party with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote on the transaction; provided, however, that such director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the reviewing committee.
Related Party Transactions

Ms. Saturday, our Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, has served as Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer of BBX Capital since June 2016. Mr. Pearson, who was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and President in February 2017 and as a member of our board of directors in August 2017, has served as Chairman of Renin, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital, since 2015. Mr. Pearson also served as Chief Executive Officer of Renin from 2015 until August 2017. Further, Raymond S. Lopez, who served as our Vice President and Controller from 2004 until 2005 and as our Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer from 2005 until March 2015, when he joined BBX Capital as its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, continues to perform certain services for us and to participate in certain of our cash incentive programs. For 2015 and 2016, we provided compensation to Mr. Lopez totaling approximately $370,000 and $580,000, respectively, in consideration for such services and pursuant to such plans. Additionally, we paid Phil Bakes approximately $950,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, pursuant to cash incentive programs for 2014 and 2015, respectively. Mr. Bakes was the President of Snapper Creek Equity Management, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital, until his death in 2016.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
From 2013 until January 2016, employees of BCC, which was a majority-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital until merging into a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital in December 2016, were provided health insurance under policies maintained by us. BCC reimbursed us at cost, which was approximately $0.8 million during 2014, $1.3 million during 2015 and $0.2 million during January 2016, prior to the termination of this relationship.
In May 2015, we entered into an “Agreement to Allocate Consolidated Income Tax Liability and Benefits” with BBX Capital, BCC, Woodbridge and our and their respective subsidiaries, pursuant to which, among other customary terms and conditions, the parties agreed to file consolidated federal tax returns. Under the agreement, the parties calculate their respective income tax liabilities and attributes as if each of them was a separate filer. If any tax attributes are used by another party to offset such party’s tax liability, the party providing the benefit is entitled to receive an amount for the tax benefits realized. During 2015 and 2016, we paid BBX Capital or its affiliated entities approximately $19.2 million and $26.2 million, respectively, under this agreement.
In April 2015, Bluegreen Specialty Finance, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“BSF”), entered into a Loan Agreement and Promissory Note pursuant to which it provided an $80.0 million loan to BBX Capital, the proceeds of which were used by BBX Capital to fund its tender offer to purchase certain shares of BCC’s Class A Common Stock that it did not own at the time. Amounts outstanding on the loan bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum until July 19, 2017 when the interest rate was reduced to 6% per annum. Interest only payments are required on a quarterly basis, with all outstanding amounts becoming due and payable at the end of the five-year term of the loan. BBX Capital is permitted to prepay the loan in whole or in part at any time, and prepayments will be required, to the extent necessary, in order for us or our subsidiaries to remain in compliance with covenants under outstanding indebtedness. During 2015 and 2016, we recognized approximately $5.6 million and $8.0 million, respectively, of interest income on this loan.
We paid or reimbursed BBX Capital or its affiliated entities approximately $1.5 million, $1.4 million and $1.3 million during 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively, for management advisory, risk management, administrative and other services. We accrued approximately $0.2 million for such services at each of December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016.
In October 2013, BSF provided a loan to Renin Holdings, which at that time was owned 81% by BCC and 19% by BBX Capital, and certain of Renin Holdings’ subsidiaries (collectively with Renin Holdings, the “Renin Borrowers”). The loan included a $3.0 million term loan and a revolving facility which allowed for additional borrowings of up to $9.0 million, of which $10.5 million in the aggregate was borrowed by the Renin Borrowers. Amounts outstanding under the loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.25% per annum and were collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Renin Borrowers. During 2014, we recognized approximately $0.3 million of interest income on the loan. The loan was repaid in full during June 2014.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General Matters
The following description summarizes the material terms of our capital stock and certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws, as they will be in effect following this offering. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description, you should refer to the forms of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws included as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part, and to the applicable provisions of Florida law.
Upon the completion of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of         shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and      shares of  “blank check” preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share.
Common Stock
Voting Rights
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Each of our directors and director nominees will stand for election at each annual meeting of shareholders. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors. Rather, a directors standing for election will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. As a result, shareholders holding a majority of the voting power of our capital stock will be able to elect all of our directors, as well as to remove each of our directors with or without cause. Pursuant to Florida law and our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, shareholders holding at least a majority of the voting power of our capital stock may act by written consent in lieu of a meeting. Woodbridge is expected to own       % of our common stock immediately following this offering (or       % if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full) and, therefore, will be in a position to control the election of directors and any other matter requiring shareholder approval, in each case, without the approval or consent of any other shareholders. Woodbridge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX).
Dividend Rights
Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.
Liquidation Rights
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets legally available for distribution to our shareholders after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preference, if any, of any then outstanding preferred stock.
No Preemptive or Similar Rights
Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights and are not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.
Fully Paid and Non-Assessable
All outstanding shares of our common stock are, and all shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to this offering will be, fully paid and non-assessable.
Preferred Stock
Under our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, and as permitted by Florida law, our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock in one or more series, establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series and fix the designation, powers, preferences and
99

TABLE OF CONTENTS
rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations or restrictions, in each case, without vote or action by our shareholders except to the extent required by the listing standards of the NYSE (or any other national securities exchange on which our common stock may be listed). These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of our common stock or otherwise adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock, including the likelihood that holders of our common stock would receive dividend payments and payments on liquidation, or the amounts thereof. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, financing transactions and other corporate purposes, could also, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control or other corporate actions, and might adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, preferred stock may be issued in connection with the adoption of a shareholder rights plan if determined to be advisable by our board of directors.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws and Florida law contain provisions that may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control. These provisions include those which permit our board of directors to establish the number of directors and fill any vacancies and newly created directorships and specify advance notice procedures that must be complied with by shareholders in order to make shareholder proposals or nominate directors.
In addition, the authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without shareholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing standards of the NYSE. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate finance transactions, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock (and our board of directors’ authority to establish the rights, preferences and limitation of the preferred stock, as described above) could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
As a Florida corporation, we are also subject to the provisions of the FBCA, including those limiting the voting rights of  “control shares.” Under the FBCA, subject to certain exceptions, including mergers and acquisitions effected in accordance with the FBCA, the holder of  “control shares” of a Florida corporation that has (i) 100 or more shareholders, (ii) its principal place of business, its principal office or substantial assets in Florida and (iii) either more than 10% of its shareholders residing in Florida, more than 10% of its shares owned by Florida residents or 1,000 shareholders residing in Florida, will not have the right to vote those shares unless the acquisition of the shares was approved by a majority of each class of voting securities of the corporation, excluding those shares held by interested persons. “Control shares” are defined in the FBCA as shares acquired by a person, either directly or indirectly, that when added to all other shares of the issuing corporation owned by that person, would entitle that person to exercise, either directly or indirectly, voting power within any of the following ranges: (i) 20% or more but less than 33% of all voting power of the corporation’s voting securities; (ii) 33% or more but less than a majority of all voting power of the corporation’s voting securities; or (iii) a majority or more of all of the voting power of the corporation’s voting securities. In addition, as previously described, so long as Woodbridge holds a controlling position in our common stock, the sale or transfer of control of our Company or the removal of incumbent directors will be impossible without the consent of Woodbridge, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX).
Exclusive Forum Provision
Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws contain an exclusive forum provision which provides that, unless our board of directors consents to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court located in Palm Beach County, Florida (or, if such Circuit Court does not have jurisdiction, another Circuit Court located within Florida or, if no Circuit Court located within Florida has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the Southern District of Florida) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for Covered Proceedings, which include: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or our
100

TABLE OF CONTENTS
shareholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees arising pursuant to any provision of the FBCA, our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (in each case, as may be amended or amended and restated from time to time); and (iv) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Florida. Further, the exclusive forum provision will provide that if any Covered Proceeding is filed in a court other than a court located within Florida in the name of any shareholder, then such shareholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Florida in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the exclusive forum provision and (ii) having service of process made upon such shareholder in any such enforcement action by service upon such shareholder’s counsel in the action as agent for such shareholder. Unless waived, this exclusive forum provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find the exclusive forum provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Indemnification
Section 607.0850 of the FBCA, our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for the indemnification of each of our directors and officers against claims, liabilities, amounts paid in settlement and expenses if such director or officer is or was a party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was our director or officer or is or was serving as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at our request, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act. In addition, we carry insurance permitted by the laws of the State of Florida on behalf of directors, officers, employees or agents which covers alleged or actual error or omission, misstatement, misleading misstatement, neglect or breach of fiduciary duty while acting solely as a director or officer of our Company, which acts may also include liabilities under the Securities Act. To the extent our directors and officers are indemnified against liabilities arising under the Securities Act, whether under the provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws or pursuant to Florida law or other contractual arrangements providing for indemnification which we may enter into from time to time, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Fee-Shifting Provision
Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws also provide us and our officers, directors and other employees with the right, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (and unless our board of directors consents to the contrary), to reimbursement of all amounts incurred by us and our officers, directors and other employees, including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and other litigation expenses, from any person or entity that initiates or asserts any claim or counterclaim against us or any of our officers, directors or other employees, or joins, offers substantial assistance to or has a direct financial interest in any such claim or counterclaim, if such person or entity does not obtain a judgment on the merits that substantially achieves, in substance and amount, the full remedy sought. This fee-shifting provision is intended to eliminate or decrease nuisance and frivolous litigation. We intend to apply the fee-shifting provision broadly to all claims and counterclaims, including those relating to derivative actions and other Covered Proceedings, claims under the federal securities laws and claims related to this offering (collectively, “Claims”). In addition, the fee-shifting provision applies to any person or entity which initiates, asserts, joins in, offers substantial assistance to, or has a direct financial interest in, any Claim, including current and prior shareholders (each, a “Claiming Party”). The court issuing a judgment on the merits of a Claim may determine whether the Claiming Party obtained a judgment on the merits that substantially achieves, in substance and amount, the full remedy sought. We intend to interpret this language as broadly as possible and believe it is a very high standard. Specifically, we believe that this standard would require, and we would argue to a court to interpret this standard to require, the Claiming Party to prevail on virtually
101

TABLE OF CONTENTS
everything sought in the Claim in order to avoid its reimbursement obligations. As a result, the fee-shifting provision may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees, including those that might otherwise benefit us or our shareholders, or increase the costs thereof to any Claiming Party.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to this offering, there was no public market for our common stock, and we cannot assure you that a liquid trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained after this offering. The sale of a substantial amount of our common stock in the public market after this offering could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.
Immediately following this offering, we expect to have        shares of common stock outstanding. Of these shares, all of the        shares of common stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for the shares purchased by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”). Any shares purchased by an affiliate may not be resold except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration, including the exemption provided by Rule 144, as described below. The outstanding shares of our common stock will be “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144. Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if they are registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration such as Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which is summarized below.
As a result of the lock-up agreements described below, and subject to the provisions of Rule 144 described below, shares of our common stock will be available for sale in the public market as follows:

beginning on the date of this prospectus, the        shares sold in this offering will be immediately available for sale in the public market, other than shares purchased by our affiliates; and

beginning 180 days after the date of this prospectus,        additional shares will become eligible for sale in the public market, all of which are held by affiliates and subject to the volume and other restrictions of Rule 144, as described below.
Lock-Up Agreements
We and our officers, directors and principal shareholder have each agreed with the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of our common stock, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock, whether such transactions are to be settled by delivery of our common stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus, in each case, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters.
Rule 144
In general, pursuant to Rule 144 in effect on the date of this prospectus, once we have been subject to public company reporting requirements for at least 90 days, a person who is not one of our affiliates at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the shares of our common stock to be sold for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than our affiliates, would be entitled to sell those shares without complying with the manner of sale, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144, subject to compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144. In addition, under Rule 144, a person who is not one of our affiliates at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares of our common stock to be sold for at least one year, including the holding period of any prior owner other than our affiliates, would be entitled to sell those shares without regard to the requirements of Rule 144. Our affiliates or persons selling on behalf of our affiliates are entitled to sell, subject to the lock-up agreements described above, within any three-month period beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

1.0% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding, which equals approximately shares of common stock immediately following this offering; and

the average weekly trading volume of our common stock on the NYSE during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.
103

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Sales under Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.
Shares Issued Under Future Plans
If we adopt any equity compensation plans in the future, it is expected that we would file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the shares of our common stock issuable under such plans. Shares registered under any such Registration Statement will be available for sale in the public market following the later of the date of issuance and the date of such filing, on which the Registration Statement will be deemed automatically effective, unless such shares are subject to vesting restrictions with us, Rule 144 restrictions applicable to our affiliates or the lock-up agreements described above.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK
The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) associated with the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating thereto. This summary is based upon the provisions of the Code, the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Treasury Regulations”), administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as of the date hereof. These authorities may be changed, possibly retroactively, and any changes may result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below. We have not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in the following summary. The authorities on which this discussion is based are subject to various interpretations and there can be no assurance that the IRS or the courts will agree with such statements and conclusions.
This summary also does not address the tax considerations arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction or under U.S. federal gift and estate tax laws, except to the limited extent set forth below. This summary is limited to persons who hold our common stock as a capital asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes (within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code). In addition, because this section is a summary, it does not address all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to particular shareholders in light of their personal investment or tax circumstances, or to certain types of shareholders that are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including, without limitation, brokers or dealers in securities, insurance companies, banks or other financial institutions, hybrid entities, tax-exempt organizations or accounts, persons holding our common stock as a part of a hedging, integrated, conversion transaction, straddle or other risk reduction transaction, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax or the Medicare tax on net investment income, entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or investors in such entities, persons who acquired our common stock through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services, certain former U.S. citizens or long-term residents, U.S. expatriates, “controlled foreign corporations” or “passive foreign investment companies” (within the meaning of the Code), “qualified foreign pension funds” (as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code) and persons deemed to sell our common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code. If a partnership, including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds shares of our common stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such partners and partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership or disposition of our common stock.
Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S.federal income tax laws to their particular situations, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock arising under the U.S. federal estate or gift tax rules or under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S. or other taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.
Non-U.S. Holder
As used in this discussion, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is an individual, corporation, estate or trust and is not any of the following for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

an individual who is a citizen or tax resident of the United States;

a corporation created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

a trust (i) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and that has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
105

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Distributions
If distributions of cash or property (other than certain pro rata stock distributions) are made to Non-U.S. Holders on shares of our common stock, such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed both our current and our accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital and will first reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s basis in our common stock (determined separately with respect to each share of our common stock), but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain from the sale of that common stock as described below under “Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock.”
Except as described in the next paragraph and subject to the discussion of FATCA, any dividend paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax either at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividend or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. In order to receive a reduced treaty rate, the Non-U.S. Holder must provide the applicable withholding agent in a timely manner a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, whichever is applicable, or other appropriate version of IRS Form W-8, certifying qualification for the reduced rate. A Non-U.S.Holder of shares of our common stock eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS in a timely manner. If the Non-U.S. Holder holds the common stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the Non-U.S. Holder’s behalf, the Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent, which then will be required to provide certification to the applicable withholding agent, either directly or through other intermediaries.
The withholding tax shall not apply to any dividend paid to a Non-U.S. Holder if such dividend is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by such Non-U.S. Holder (and, if an applicable income tax treaty requires, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States). In order to claim this exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly completed IRS Form W-8ECI or other applicable IRS Form W-8 properly certifying such exemption. Such effectively connected dividends, although not subject to U.S. federal withholding tax, will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at applicable graduated U.S. federal income tax rates, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. In addition, dividends received by a Non-U.S. Holder that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that are effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business may also be subject to a “branch profits tax” at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.
Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock
Subject to the discussion of FATCA and backup withholding, Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be required to pay U.S. federal income tax, including by way of withholding, on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock unless:

the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if an applicable income tax treaty requires, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States);

the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual not entitled to the benefits of an income tax treaty who is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the calendar year in which the sale or disposition occurs and certain other conditions are met; or

our common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest (a “USRPI”) by reason of our status as a “United States real property holding corporation” (a “USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period preceding the Non-U.S. Holder’s disposition of, or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for, our common stock.
Non-U.S. Holders described in the first bullet above will be required to pay tax on the net gain derived from the sale under regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates, and a corporate Non-U.S. Holder described in the first bullet above also may be subject to the branch profits tax at a 30% rate, or such lower
106

TABLE OF CONTENTS
rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. Individual Non-U.S. Holders described in the second bullet above will be required to pay a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which gain may generally be offset by U.S.-source capital losses for that year.
With respect to the third bullet above, generally a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its USRPIs (within the meaning of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations) equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests plus its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. We believe that we are not currently a USRPHC and, based on our business plan and anticipated operations, do not expect to become a USRPHC in the future. However USRPHC status is an inherently factual determination that involves complex legal considerations. We have not sought an IRS ruling with respect to whether we are a USRPHC and we cannot give definitive assurance regarding our non-USRPHC status. Additionally, because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our other business assets, there can be no assurance that we will not become a USRPHC in the future. Even if we are or become a USRPHC, as long as our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market (within the meaning of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations), such common stock will not be treated as a USRPI in the hands of any Non-U.S. Holder who does not hold (actually or constructively) more than 5% of our common stock at any time during the shorter of the five-year period preceding the Non-U.S. Holder’s disposition of, or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for, our common stock. Non-U.S. Holders should be aware that no prediction can be made as to whether our common stock will be regularly traded on an established securities market (within the meaning of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations).
U.S. Federal Estate Taxes
Our common stock beneficially owned or treated as beneficially owned by an individual who at the time of death is not a citizen or resident of the United States (as specifically defined for U.S. federal estate tax purposes), and certain lifetime transfers of an interest in our common stock made by such an individual, will be included in his or her gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes and, therefore, may be subject to U.S. federal estate tax, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.
Backup Withholding and Information Reporting
Generally, we must report annually to the IRS the amount of dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder, the Non-U.S. Holder’s name and address, and the amount of U.S. federal income tax withheld, if any. A similar report will be sent to the Non-U.S. Holder. These information reporting requirements apply even if withholding was not required because the dividends were effectively connected to the conduct of a Non-U.S. Holder’s trade or business within the United States or withholding was reduced by an applicable income tax treaty. Pursuant to applicable income tax treaties or other agreements, the IRS may make these reports available to tax authorities in the Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence.
Payments of dividends on, or of proceeds from the disposition of, our common stock made to Non-U.S. Holders may be subject to additional information reporting and backup withholding unless the Non-U.S. Holder establishes an exemption, for example, by properly certifying its non-U.S. status on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, whichever is applicable, or another appropriate version of IRS Form W-8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, backup withholding and information reporting may apply if the applicable withholding agent has actual knowledge, or reason to know, that a holder claiming to be a Non-U.S. Holder is a U.S. person.
U.S. information reporting and backup withholding generally will not apply to a payment of proceeds of a disposition of our common stock where the transaction is effected outside the United States through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker. However, information reporting requirements, but not backup withholding, generally will apply to such a payment if the broker is (i) a U.S. person or (ii) a foreign person with certain U.S. connections, unless the broker has documentary evidence in its records that the holder is a Non-U.S. Holder and certain conditions are met or the holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax; rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may generally be obtained from the IRS, provided that the

required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of backup withholding in their particular circumstances and the availability of and procedure for obtaining an exemption from backup withholding under current Treasury Regulations.
FATCA
Legislation commonly known as FATCA (under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code) generally will impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on dividends on and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our common stock paid to a “foreign financial institution” (as defined under FATCA and the applicable Treasury Regulations), unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and to collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding the U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners) or otherwise establishes an exemption. The legislation also generally will impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on dividends on and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our common stock paid to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the applicable withholding agent with a certification identifying certain substantial direct and indirect U.S. owners of the entity, certifies that there are none or otherwise establishes an exemption. The withholding taxes described above will apply to any dividend payments on our common stock and, with respect to dispositions of our common stock after December 31, 2018, to payments of gross proceeds thereon. Under certain circumstances, a Non-U.S. Holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify the requirements described in this paragraph. Prospective investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in our common stock.

UNDERWRITING
Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC are acting as the representatives of the underwriters named below. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement, each of the underwriters named below has severally agreed to purchase from us and the selling shareholder the aggregate number of shares of common stock set forth opposite its name:
Underwriters
Number of Shares
Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
             Incorporated
SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc.
Total
            
Of the        shares to be purchased by the underwriters,        shares will be purchased from us and        shares will be purchased from the selling shareholder.
The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters are subject to various conditions, including approval of legal matters by counsel. The nature of the underwriters’ obligations commits them to purchase and pay for all of the shares of common stock listed above if any are purchased.
The underwriting agreement provides that we and the selling shareholder will indemnify the underwriters against liabilities specified in the underwriting agreement under the Securities Act, or will contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make relating to these liabilities.
The underwriters expect to deliver the shares of common stock to purchasers on or about            , 2017.
Option to Purchase Additional Shares
We have granted a 30-day option to the underwriters to purchase up to a total of         additional shares of common stock from us at the initial public offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover of this prospectus. If the underwriters exercise this option in whole or in part, then each of the underwriters will be separately committed, subject to the conditions described in the underwriting agreement, to purchase the additional shares of common stock in proportion to their respective commitments set forth in the table above.
Determination of Offering Price
Since we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge in April 2013, there has been no public market for our common stock. Woodbridge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (NYSE: BBX). The initial public offering price will be determined through negotiations between us, the selling shareholder and the underwriters. In addition to prevailing market conditions, the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price will include:

our results of operations;

our financial condition;

our future prospects;

our management; and

the economic conditions in, and future prospects for, the industry in which we operate.
We cannot assure you that an active or orderly trading market will develop for our common stock or that our common stock will trade in the public markets following this offering at or above the initial public offering price.
109

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Commissions and Discounts
The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock directly to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus, and at this price less a concession not in excess of  $       per share to other dealers specified in a master agreement among underwriters who are members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Following this offering, the offering price, concessions and other selling terms may be changed by the underwriters. Our common stock is offered subject to receipt and acceptance by the underwriters and to the other conditions, including the right to reject orders in whole or in part.
The following table summarizes the compensation paid to the underwriters by us and the proceeds, before expenses, payable to us and the selling shareholder:

We estimate that our total expenses in connection with this offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $      , all of which will be paid by us. We have also agreed to reimburse the underwriters up to $       for certain of their expenses and application fees incurred in connection with, and clearance of this offering by, FINRA.
Indemnification of Underwriters
We and the selling shareholder will indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and liabilities arising from breaches of our representations and warranties in the underwriting agreement. If we or the selling shareholder are unable to provide this indemnification, we and the selling shareholder will contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities in accordance with the terms of the underwriting agreement.
No Sales of Similar Securities
The underwriters will require all of our directors and officers and the selling shareholder, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to offer, sell, agree to sell, directly or indirectly, or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock except for the shares of common stock in this offering without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus.
We have agreed that for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus, we will not, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters, offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock, except for shares of common stock offered in this offering and other customary exceptions.
New York Stock Exchange Listing
We have applied to list our common stock on the NYSE under the symbol “BXG.”
Short Sales, Stabilizing Transactions and Penalty Bids
In order to facilitate this offering, persons participating in this offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock during and following this offering. Specifically, the underwriters may engage in the following activities in accordance with the rules of the SEC.
Short Sales
Short sales involve sales by the underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in this offering. Covered short sales are short sales made in an amount not greater than the
110

TABLE OF CONTENTS
underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares in this offering. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through their option to purchase additional shares in this offering. Naked short sales are any short sales in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering.
Stabilizing Transactions
The underwriters may make bids for or purchases of the shares for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of our common stock, so long as stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.
Penalty Bids
If the underwriters purchase shares of common stock in the open market in a stabilizing transaction or syndicate covering transaction, they may reclaim a selling concession from the underwriters and selling group members who sold those shares as part of this offering. Stabilization and syndicate covering transactions may cause the price of our common stock to be higher than it would be in the absence of these transactions. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of our common stock if it discourages presales of the shares.
The transactions described above may occur on the NYSE or otherwise. Neither we, the selling shareholder nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. If these transactions are commenced, they may be discontinued without notice at any time.
Discretionary Sales
The underwriters have informed us that they do not expect to confirm sales of our common stock to accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority without obtaining the specific approval of the account holder.
Electronic Distribution
A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the Internet sites or through other online services maintained by one or more of the underwriters participating in this offering, or by their affiliates. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on any underwriter’s website and any information contained in any other website maintained by an underwriter is not part of this prospectus or the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us, the selling shareholder or any underwriter in its capacity as underwriter and should not be relied upon by investors.
Relationships
The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include, amongst other things, securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Certain of the underwriters and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, investment banking and related services (including as initial purchasers of debt securities and/or arrangers of credit facilities) for us and our affiliates, including BBX Capital, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative
111

securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customer and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve our securities and instruments.
Selling Restrictions
European Economic Area
In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), an offer to the public of any shares of our common stock has not been made and may not be made in that Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the shares of our common stock which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that an offer to the public in that Relevant Member State of any shares of our common stock may be made at any time under the following exemptions under the Prospectus Directive, if they have been implemented in that Relevant Member State:
a.
to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;
b.
to fewer than 100, or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representatives of the underwriters for any such offer; or
c.
in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive;
provided that no such offer of shares of our common stock shall result in a requirement for the publication by us or any underwriter of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or a supplemental prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive or any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in a Relevant Member State and each person who initially acquires any shares of our common stock or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that it is a qualified investor within the meaning of the law of the Relevant Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive or any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in any Relevant Member State.
For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer to the public” in relation to any shares of our common stock in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and any shares of our common stock to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase any shares of our common stock, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State. The expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State, and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.
In the case of any shares of our common stock being offered to a financial intermediary as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, such financial intermediary will also be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that the shares of common stock acquired by it in this offering have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of any shares of our common stock to the public other than their offer or resale in a Relevant Member State to qualified investors as so defined or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the representatives of the underwriters has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale. We, the underwriters and their affiliates, and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements. Notwithstanding the above, a person who is not a qualified investor and who has notified the representatives of the underwriters of such fact in writing may, with the prior consent of the representatives of the underwriters, be permitted to acquire shares of our common stock in this offering.

Purchasers are advised to seek legal advice prior to any resale of the securities.
Representations of Canadian Purchasers.    By purchasing the shares of common stock in Canada and accepting delivery of a purchase confirmation, a purchaser is representing to us, the selling shareholder and the dealer from whom the purchase confirmation is received that:

the purchaser is a “permitted client” as defined in National Instrument 31-103—Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations;

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (formerly Bluegreen Corporation) (“Bluegreen”) has prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments consisting of normal recurring items that, in Bluegreen’s opinion, are necessary for a fair presentation of Bluegreen’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any other future periods. For additional information regarding certain of the matters discussed herein, refer to Bluegreen’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Organization
Bluegreen is a sales, marketing and management company focused on the vacation ownership industry. Bluegreen markets, sells and manages vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) in resorts, which are generally located in popular, high-volume, “drive-to” vacation destinations. The resorts in which Bluegreen markets, sells or manages VOIs were either developed or acquired by Bluegreen, or were developed and are owned by third parties. Bluegreen earns fees for providing sales and marketing services to third-party developers. Bluegreen also earns fees for providing management services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and homeowners associations (“HOAs”), mortgage servicing, VOI title services, reservation services, and construction design and development services. In addition, Bluegreen provides financing to FICO ® score-qualified individual purchasers of VOIs, which generates significant interest income.
Bluegreen is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge Holdings, LLC (“Woodbridge”), which is owned 100% by BBX Capital Corporation (formerly known as BFC Financial Corporation) (“BBX Capital”) (NYSE: BBX; OTCQX: BBXTB).
On November 16, 2009, BBX Capital acquired a controlling interest in Bluegreen. In connection with the acquisition, the assets and liabilities of Bluegreen were measured at fair value as of the date of acquisition. In accordance with Bluegreen’s election to apply push down accounting, all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the change, as further described below. Bluegreen’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and consolidated statement of shareholder’s equity for the six months ended June 30, 2017 include a reclassification of  $183 million from retained earnings to additional paid in capital to correct the misapplication of push-down accounting adjustments related to the 2009 acquisition of a controlling interest in Bluegreen by BBX Capital. Bluegreen has deemed the reclassification to be immaterial to its consolidated financial statements as a whole. Correction of these immaterial errors had no impact on Bluegreen’s total assets, total equity, consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income or consolidated statements of cash flows as of, or for the six months ended, June 30, 2017 or 2016.
Principles of Consolidation
Bluegreen’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, entities in which Bluegreen holds a controlling financial interest, including Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, LLC (“Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations”) (a joint venture in which Bluegreen is deemed to hold a controlling financial interest based on its 51% equity interest, Bluegreen’s active role as the day-to-day manager of its activities, and Bluegreen’s majority voting control of its management committee) and variable interest entities (sometimes referred to herein as “VIEs”) of which Bluegreen is the primary beneficiary, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
F-7

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Consolidations (Topic 810). Bluegreen does not consolidate the statutory business trusts formed by Bluegreen to issue trust preferred securities as these entities represent VIEs in which Bluegreen is not the primary beneficiary. The statutory business trusts are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, Bluegreen’s management evaluates its estimates, including those that relate to the estimated future sales value of inventory; the recognition of revenue, including revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting; Bluegreen’s allowance for credit losses; the recovery of the carrying value of real estate inventories; the fair value of assets measured at, or compared to, fair value on a non-recurring basis such as intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and the estimate of contingent liabilities related to litigation and other claims and assessments. Bluegreen’s management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Future Adoption of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” as subsequently amended (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 specifies how and when to recognize revenue from contracts with customers by providing a principle based framework. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2018. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial adoption. Bluegreen is currently analyzing the potential impact that adopting this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and its business processes, accounting policies and controls. While Bluegreen continues this analysis with respect to all material revenue streams, the recognition of fee-based sales commission revenue, ancillary revenues, and rental revenues is expected to remain materially unchanged. Bluegreen currently expects possible areas of impact will include (i) gross versus net presentation for payroll reimbursement related to resorts managed by Bluegreen on behalf of third parties and (ii) the timing of the recognition of VOI revenue related to the removal of certain brightline tests regarding the determination of the adequacy of the buyer’s commitment under existing industry-specific guidance. Final industry-specific guidance remains open for the following issues: (i) application of percentage of completion related to sales of incomplete VOIs, (ii) allocation of transaction price, (iii) satisfaction of performance obligations and (iv) contract costs. Due to the nature and potential significant impact of these open issues, Bluegreen expects to disclose additional details on the impact of the adoption of this accounting standard later in 2017 as industry-specific guidance is issued. Bluegreen anticipates adopting this standard on January 1, 2018.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). This update will require assets and liabilities to be recognized on the balance sheet of a lessee for the rights and obligations created by leases of assets with terms of more than 12 months. For income statement purposes, the update retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance based on largely similar criteria to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. ASU 2016-02 also requires extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures, including significant judgments made by management, to provide greater insight into the extent of revenue and expense recognized and expected to be recognized from existing leases. This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Bluegreen is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
F-8

TABLE OF CONTENTS
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan losses. Further, public entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination (i.e., by vintage year). This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted beginning January 1, 2019. Bluegreen is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Classifications of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which is intended to clarify the presentation of cash receipts and payments in specific situations. Further, in November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires entities to show the changes in total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows with a reconciliation to the related captions in the balance sheet. These standards will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Bluegreen’s adoption of ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Notes receivable secured by homesites were originated through a business, substantially all of the assets of which were sold by Bluegreen in 2012.
The weighted-average interest rate on Bluegreen’s notes receivable was 15.5% and 15.7% as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. All of Bluegreen’s notes receivable secured by VOIs (“VOI notes receivable”) bear interest at fixed rates. The weighted-average interest rate charged on VOI notes receivable was 15.5% and 15.7% as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Bluegreen’s notes receivable are carried at amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. Interest income is suspended, and previously accrued but unpaid interest income is reversed, on all delinquent notes receivable when principal or interest payments are more than three months contractually past due and not resumed until such loans are less than three months past due. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $9.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable were more than 90 days past due, and accordingly, consistent with Bluegreen’s policy, were not accruing interest income. After 120 days, Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable are generally written off against the allowance for credit loss.
Credit Quality of Notes Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses
The activity in Bluegreen’s allowance for credit losses (including with respect to its notes receivable secured by homesites) was as follows (in thousands):

$ 115,590
Provision for credit losses

(23,548 )
Balance, June 30, 2017
$ 113,595
Bluegreen holds large amounts of homogeneous VOI notes receivable and assesses uncollectibility based on pools of receivables. In estimating future credit losses, Bluegreen’s management does not use a single primary indicator of credit quality but instead evaluates the VOI notes receivable based upon a static pool analysis that incorporates the aging of the respective receivables, default trends and prepayment rates by origination year, as well as the FICO ® scores of the borrowers at the time of origination.
The following table shows the delinquency status of Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

Includes $5.1 million and $5.3 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, related to VOI notes receivable that, as of such dates, had defaulted but the related VOI notes receivable balance had not yet been charged off in accordance with the provisions of certain of Bluegreen’s receivable-backed notes payable transactions. These VOI notes receivable have been reflected in the allowance for credit losses.
3.
Variable Interest Entities
From time to time, Bluegreen sells VOI notes receivable through special purpose finance entities. These transactions are generally structured as non-recourse to Bluegreen and are designed to provide liquidity for Bluegreen and to transfer certain of the economic risks and benefits of the notes receivable to third parties. In a securitization, various classes of debt securities are issued by the special purpose finance entities that are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of VOI notes receivable. Bluegreen services the securitized notes receivable for a fee pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated with third parties based on market conditions at the time of the securitization.
In these securitizations, Bluegreen generally retains a portion of the securities and continues to service the securitized notes receivable. Under these arrangements, the cash payments received from obligors on the receivables sold are generally applied monthly to pay fees to service providers, make interest and principal payments to investors, and fund required reserves, if any, with the remaining balance of such cash retained

TABLE OF CONTENTS
by Bluegreen; however, to the extent the portfolio of receivables fails to satisfy specified performance criteria (as may occur due to, among other things, an increase in default rates or credit loss severity) or other trigger events occur, the funds received from obligors are required to be distributed on an accelerated basis to investors. Depending on the circumstances and the transaction, the application of the accelerated payment formula may be permanent or temporary until the trigger event is cured. As of June 30, 2017, Bluegreen was in compliance with all applicable terms under its securitization transactions, and no trigger events had occurred.
In accordance with applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of VIEs, Bluegreen analyzes its variable interests, which may consist of loans, servicing rights, guarantees, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which it has a variable interest is a VIE. The analysis includes a review of both quantitative and qualitative factors. Bluegreen bases its quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flows of the entity, and bases its qualitative analysis on the structure of the entity, including Bluegreen’s decision-making ability and authority with respect to the entity, and relevant financial agreements. Bluegreen also uses its qualitative analysis to determine if Bluegreen must consolidate a VIE as the primary beneficiary. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, Bluegreen has determined these securitization entities to be VIEs of which Bluegreen is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, Bluegreen consolidates these entities into its financial statements.
Under the terms of certain of Bluegreen’s timeshare note sales, Bluegreen has the right to repurchase or substitute a limited amount of defaulted mortgage notes for new notes at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest. Voluntary repurchases and substitutions by Bluegreen of defaulted notes during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $4.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Bluegreen’s maximum exposure to loss relating to non-recourse securitization entities is the difference between the outstanding VOI notes receivable and the notes payable, plus cash reserves and any additional residual interest in future cash flows from collateral.
The assets and liabilities of Bluegreen’s consolidated VIEs were as follows (in thousands):

Real estate held for future development
66,993 71,706
$ 264,885 $ 238,534
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, Bluegreen implemented certain changes including a risk-based financing program and a revised VOI pricing matrix. These changes increased the average selling price of VOIs by approximately 4%. As a result of this pricing change, Bluegreen’s management also increased its estimate of total gross margin generated on the sale of its VOI inventory. Under the relative sales value method prescribed for timeshare developers to relieve the cost of VOI inventory, changes to the estimate of gross margin expected to be generated on the sale of VOI inventory are recognized on a retrospective basis in earnings. Accordingly, during the second quarter of 2017, Bluegreen recognized a benefit to cost of VOIs sold of  $5.1 million ($3.1 million net of tax).

KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility .   On May 19, 2017, Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable purchase facility with DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt AM Main (“DZ”), and, at that time, Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BB&T”) which permits maximum outstanding financings of $80.0 million, was amended and restated to extend the advance period from December 2017 to December 2019 and increase the advance rate with respect to VOI notes receivable securing amounts financed from 75% to 80%. In connection with the amendment and restatement, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) replaced BB&T as a funding agent. The facility (the “KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility”) will mature and all outstanding amounts will become due 36 months after the revolving advance period has expired, or earlier under certain circumstances set forth in the facility. Interest on amounts outstanding under the facility is tied to an applicable index rate of the LIBOR rate, in the case of amounts funded by KeyBank (including amounts previously funded by BB&T), and a cost of funds rate or commercial paper rates, in the case of amounts funded by or through DZ. The interest rate under the facility equals the applicable index rate plus 2.75% until the expiration of the revolving advance period and thereafter will equal the applicable index rate plus 4.75%. Subject to the terms of the facility, Bluegreen will receive the excess cash flows generated by the VOI notes receivable sold (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest and principal under the facility) until the expiration of the VOI notes receivable advance period, at which point all of the excess cash flow will be paid to the note holders until the
F-13

outstanding balance is reduced to zero. While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse and is not guaranteed by Bluegreen.
2010 Term Securitization.    As discussed below, in April 2017, Bluegreen repaid in full the notes payable issued in connection with the 2010 Term Securitization. Accordingly, the related unamortized debt issuance costs of  $0.3 million were written off during the second quarter of 2017.
2017 Term Securitization .   On June 6, 2017, Bluegreen completed a private offering and sale of approximately $120.2 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes (the “2017 Term Securitization”). The 2017 Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of two tranches of VOI receivable-backed notes (the “Notes”): approximately $88.8 million of Class A notes and approximately $31.4 million of Class B notes with note interest rates of 2.95% and 3.59%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average note interest rate of approximately 3.12%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 88%. The Notes mature in October 2032.
The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold or to be sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017 (the “Trust”) is $136.5 million, $117.0 million of which was sold to the Trust at closing, $3.0 million of which was subsequently sold to the 2017 Trust during June 2017 and $16.6 million of which (the “Prefunded Receivables”) is expected to be sold to the Trust by October 4, 2017. The gross proceeds of such sales to the Trust were $120.2 million. A portion of the proceeds received was used to: repay KeyBank and DZ $32.3 million, representing all amounts outstanding (including accrued interest) under the KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility; repay Liberty Bank approximately $26.8 million (including accrued interest) under Bluegreen’s existing facility with Liberty Bank; capitalize a reserve fund; and pay fees and expenses associated with the transaction. In April 2017, Bluegreen, as servicer, redeemed the notes related to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2010-A for approximately $10.0 million, and certain of the VOI notes receivable in such trust were sold to the Trust in connection with the 2017 Term Securitization. The remainder of the gross proceeds from the 2017 Term Securitization were or are expected to be used by Bluegreen for general corporate purposes.
While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the 2017 Term Securitization is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivables is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. Subject to the performance of the collateral, Bluegreen will receive any excess cash flows generated by the VOI notes receivable transferred under the 2017 Term Securitization (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the 2017 Term Securitization) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their VOI notes receivable.
See Note 6 to Bluegreen’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2016 audited consolidated financial statements for additional information with respect to Bluegreen’s receivable-backed notes payable facilities.
Junior Subordinated Debentures
Bluegreen has formed statutory business trusts (collectively, the “Trusts”), each of which issued trust preferred securities as part of a larger pooled trust securities offering which was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and invested the proceeds thereof in Bluegreen’s junior subordinated debentures. The Trusts are variable interest entities in which Bluegreen is not the primary beneficiary as defined by ASC 810. Accordingly, Bluegreen does not consolidate the Trusts; instead, Bluegreen’s beneficial interests in the Trusts are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Interest on the junior subordinated debentures and distributions on the trust preferred securities are payable quarterly in arrears at the same interest rate.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:
Level 1:
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
The carrying amounts of financial instruments included in Bluegreen’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and their estimated fair values were as follows (in thousands):

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Lines-of-credit, notes payable, and receivable-backed notes payable.    The amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for lines-of credit, notes payable, and receivable-backed notes payable approximate fair value for indebtedness that provides for variable interest rates. The fair value of Bluegreen’s fixed-rate, receivable-backed notes payable was determined using Level 3 inputs by discounting the net cash outflows estimated to be used to repay the debt. These obligations are to be satisfied using the proceeds from the consumer loans that secure the obligations.
Junior subordinated debentures.    The fair value of Bluegreen’s junior subordinated debentures is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on the contractual cash flows discounted at a market rate or based on market price quotes from the over-the-counter bond market.

Commitments and Contingencies
In lieu of paying maintenance fees for unsold VOI inventory, Bluegreen provides subsidies to certain HOAs to provide for funds necessary to operate and maintain vacation ownership properties in excess of assessments collected from owners of the VOIs. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, Bluegreen made payments related to such subsidies of  $0.1 million. Bluegreen accrued a $5.3 million liability for such subsidies at June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, Bluegreen was providing subsidies to ten HOAs.
In June 2015, Bluegreen entered into certain agreements with its former CEO, John Maloney, who resigned from Bluegreen on May 27, 2015. Under the terms of these agreements, Mr. Maloney received $3.8 million and was paid a total of  $2.9 million over the 2-year period ended May 2017 in exchange for ongoing consulting services during the term of the agreements. As of June 30, 2017, Bluegreen had no liability remaining under this arrangement.
On August 24, 2016, Whitney Paxton and Jeff Reeser filed a lawsuit against Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. (“BVU”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bluegreen, and certain employees of BVU, seeking to establish a class action of formed and current employees of BVU alleging violations of plaintiffs’ rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (the “FSLA”) and breach of contract. The lawsuit also alleges that BVU terminated plaintiff Whitney Paxton as retaliation for her complaints about violations of the FSLA. The lawsuit seeks damages in the amount of the unpaid compensation owed to plaintiffs. On July 27, 2017, a magistrate judge entered a report and recommendation to conditionally certify collective action and facilitate notice to potential class members be granted with respect to certain employees and denied as to to others. Management believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action.
In the ordinary course of business, Bluegreen becomes subject to claims or proceedings from time to time relating to the purchase, sale, marketing, or financing of VOIs or Bluegreen’s other business activities. Bluegreen is also subject to certain matters relating to the Bluegreen Communities’ business, substantially all of the assets of which were sold by Bluegreen on May 4, 2012. Additionally, from time to time, Bluegreen becomes involved in disputes with existing and former employees, vendors, taxing jurisdictions and various other parties. From time to time in the ordinary course of business, Bluegreen also receives individual consumer complaints, as well as complaints received through regulatory and consumer agencies, including Offices of State Attorneys General. Bluegreen takes these matters seriously and attempts to resolve any such issues as they arise.
Bluegreen’s collection efforts with respect to its VOI notes receivable have recently been affected by the receipt of letters from attorneys purporting to represent certain VOI owners within the Bluegreen Vacation Club. Bluegreen believes these attorneys have encouraged such owners to become delinquent and ultimately default on their obligations under the notes. Following receipt of such a letter, Bluegreen may no longer pursue collection efforts directly from the owner, but in some cases have pursued, and may continue to pursue, legal action against the owner.
Reserves are accrued for matters in which Bluegreen’s management believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Bluegreen’s management does not believe that the aggregate liability relating to known contingencies in excess of the aggregate amounts accrued, if any, will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition. However,
F-16

TABLE OF CONTENTS
litigation is inherently uncertain and the actual costs of resolving legal claims, including awards of damages, may be substantially higher than the amounts accrued for these claims and may have a material adverse impact on Bluegreen’s results of operations or financial condition.
Bluegreen’s management is not at this time able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to matters in which it is reasonably possible that a loss will occur. In certain matters, Bluegreen’s management is unable to estimate the loss or reasonable range of loss until additional developments provide information sufficient to support an assessment of the loss or range of loss. Frequently in these matters, the claims are broad and the plaintiffs have not quantified or factually supported their claim.
8.
Income Taxes
Bluegreen and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With certain exceptions, Bluegreen is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, or local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014 for federal returns and 2012 for state returns.
Certain of Bluegreen’s state filings are under routine examination. While there is no assurance as to the results of these examinations, Bluegreen does not currently anticipate any material adjustments in connection with these examinations.
Bluegreen’s effective income tax rate was 38% and 39% during the six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Effective income tax rates for interim periods are based upon Bluegreen’s current estimated annual rate. Bluegreen’s annual effective income tax rate varies based upon the estimate of taxable earnings as well as on the mix of taxable earnings in the various states in which Bluegreen operates.
In May 2015, Bluegreen, Woodbridge, BBX Capital and their respective subsidiaries entered into an Agreement to Allocate Consolidated Income Tax Liability and Benefits pursuant to which, among other customary terms and conditions, the parties agreed to file consolidated federal tax returns. Under the agreement, the parties calculate their respective income tax liabilities and attributes as if each of them was a separate filer. If any tax attributes are used by another party to the agreement to offset its tax liability, the party providing the benefit will receive an amount for the tax benefits realized. Bluegreen paid BBX Capital or its affiliated entities $25.4 million and $13.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, pursuant to the Agreement to Allocate Consolidated Income Tax Liability and Benefits.
As of June 30, 2017, Bluegreen did not have any significant amounts accrued for interest and penalties or recorded for uncertain tax positions.
9.
Related Party Transactions
As described in Note 1, Woodbridge, which is the sole shareholder of Bluegreen, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital (formerly known as BFC Financial Corporation). BBX Capital may be deemed to be controlled by Alan B. Levan, Chairman of BBX Capital, and John E. Abdo, Vice Chairman of BBX Capital. Together, Messrs. Levan and Abdo may be deemed to beneficially own shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing approximately 77% of BBX Capital’s total voting power. Mr. Levan and Mr. Abdo serve as Bluegreen’s Chairman and Vice Chairman, respectively.
In April 2015, pursuant to a Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bluegreen provided an $80.0 million loan to BBX Capital. Amounts outstanding on the loan bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum until July 2017 when the interest rate was reduced to 6% per annum. Payments of interest are required on a quarterly basis, with all outstanding amounts being due and payable at the end of the five-year term. BBX Capital is permitted to prepay the loan in whole or in part at any time, and prepayments will be required, to the extent necessary, in order for Bluegreen or its subsidiaries to remain in compliance with covenants under their outstanding indebtedness. Bluegreen recognized $4.0 million of interest income on the loan to BBX Capital during each of the sixth month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Bluegreen paid or reimbursed BBX Capital or its affiliated entities $0.8 million and $0.7 million during each of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for management advisory, risk management, administrative and other services. Bluegreen accrued $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the services described above as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Reportable segments consist of one or more operating segments with similar economic characteristics, products and services, production processes, type of customer, distribution system or regulatory environment.
The information provided for segment reporting is obtained from internal reports utilized by management of Bluegreen. The presentation and allocation of results of operations may not reflect the actual economic costs of the segments as standalone businesses. Management does not evaluate the balance sheet by segment. If a different basis of allocation were utilized, the relative contributions of the segments might differ but the relative trends in the segments’ operating results would, in management’s view, likely not be impacted.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, Bluegreen reported its results of operations through two reportable segments:
Sales of VOIs and financing – Bluegreen markets and sells VOIs that it owns. Additionally, Bluegreen also sells VOIs through fee-for-service agreements with third-party developers. Related to the sales of the VOIs that Bluegreen owns, Bluegreen provides consumer financing, which generates interest income for Bluegreen. Bluegreen also generates revenues from providing title services through a wholly owned subsidiary.
Resort operations and club management – Bluegreen provides management services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and to a majority of the HOAs of the resorts within the Bluegreen vacation Club. Bluegreen also manages the club reservation services, provides services to owners and performs billing and collections services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and certain HOAs. Additionally, Bluegreen generates revenue from its Traveler’s Plus TM program, food and beverage and other retail operations. Bluegreen also earns commissions from providing rental services to third parties and fees from managing the construction activities of certain of its fee-based clients.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholder
Bluegreen Vacations Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (formerly Bluegreen Corporation) (a Florida corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bluegreen Vacations Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has elected to change its method of accounting for purchase accounting adjustments in 2016 and 2015.

BLUEGREEN VACATIONS CORPORATION
   
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.   Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (formerly Bluegreen Corporation) (“Bluegreen”) is a sales, marketing, and management company focused on the vacation ownership industry. Bluegreen markets, sells and manages vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) in resorts, which are generally located in popular, high-volume, “drive-to” vacation destinations. The resorts in which Bluegreen markets, sells or manages VOIs were either developed or acquired by Bluegreen, or were developed and are owned by third parties. Bluegreen earns fees for providing sales and marketing services to third party developers. Bluegreen also earns fees by providing management services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and home owners’ associations (“HOAs”), mortgage servicing, VOI title services, reservation services, and construction design and development services. In addition, Bluegreen provides financing to FICO ® score-qualified individual purchasers of VOIs, which generates significant interest income.
Bluegreen’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, entities in which Bluegreen holds a controlling financial interest, including Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, LLC (a joint venture in which Bluegreen is deemed to hold a controlling financial interest based on its 51% equity interest, Bluegreen’s active role as the day-to-day manager of its activities, and Bluegreen’s majority voting control of its management committee (“Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations”)) and variable interest entities (sometimes referred to herein as “VIEs”) of which Bluegreen is the primary beneficiary, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Consolidations (Topic 810). Bluegreen does not consolidate the statutory business trusts formed by Bluegreen to issue trust preferred securities as these entities represent VIEs in which Bluegreen is not the primary beneficiary. The statutory business trusts are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Bluegreen is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Woodbridge Holdings, LLC (“Woodbridge”), which is currently owned 100% by BBX Capital Corporation (formerly known as BFC Financial Corporation) (“BBX Capital”) (NYSE: BBX; OTCQX: BBXTB).
On November 16, 2009, BBX Capital acquired a controlling interest in Bluegreen. In connection with the acquisition, the assets and liabilities of Bluegreen were measured at fair value as of the date of acquisition. In accordance with Bluegreen’s election to apply push down accounting, all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the change, as further described below. Bluegreen’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and consolidated statements of shareholder’s equity for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 include a reclassification of  $183 million from retained earnings to additional paid in capital to correct the misapplication of push-down accounting adjustments related to the 2009 acquisition of a controlling interest in Bluegreen by BBX Capital. Bluegreen has deemed the reclassification to be immaterial to its consolidated financial statements as a whole. Correction of these immaterial errors had no impact on Bluegreen’s total assets, total equity, consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income or consolidated statements of cash flows as of, or for the years ended, December 31, 2016 or 2015.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, Bluegreen’s management evaluates its estimates, including those that relate to the estimated future sales value of inventory; the recognition of revenue, including revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting; Bluegreen’s allowance for credit losses; the recovery of the carrying value of real estate inventories; the fair value of assets measured at, or compared to, fair value on a non-recurring basis such as intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and the estimate of contingent liabilities related to litigation and other claims and assessments. Bluegreen’s
F-27

TABLE OF CONTENTS
management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Bluegreen generally invests cash in excess of its immediate operating requirements in short-term time deposits and money market instruments, typically with original maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less. Bluegreen maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. These financial institutions are located throughout the United States and Aruba. However, a significant portion of Bluegreen’s unrestricted cash is maintained with a single bank and, accordingly, Bluegreen is subject to credit risk. Periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of financial institutions maintaining Bluegreen’s deposits are performed to evaluate and, if necessary, take actions in an attempt to mitigate credit risk.
Restricted cash
Restricted cash consists primarily of customer deposits held in escrow accounts and cash collected on pledged/secured notes receivable not yet remitted to lenders.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recorded for the sale of VOIs, net of a provision for credit losses, in accordance with timeshare accounting guidance. In accordance with the requirements of ASC 970, Real Estate (“ASC 970”), Bluegreen recognizes revenue on VOI sales when a minimum of 10% of the sales price has been received in cash (demonstrating the buyer’s commitment), the legal rescission period has expired, collectibility of the receivable representing the remainder of the sales price is reasonably assured and Bluegreen has completed substantially all of its obligations with respect to any development related to the real estate sold.
Bluegreen believes that it uses a reasonably reliable methodology to estimate the collectibility of the receivables representing the remainder of the sales price of real estate sold. Bluegreen’s policies regarding the estimation of credit losses on its notes receivable are discussed in further detail under “Notes Receivable” below.
Under timeshare accounting rules, the calculation of the adequacy of a buyer’s commitment for the sale of VOIs requires that cash received towards the purchase of VOIs be reduced by the value of certain incentives provided to the buyer at the time of sale. If after considering the value of the incentives provided, the 10% requirement is not met, the VOI sale, and the related cost and direct selling expenses, are deferred until such time that sufficient cash is received from the customer, generally through receipt of mortgage payments, to meet the 10% threshold. Changes to the quantity, type, or value of sales incentives that Bluegreen provides to buyers of its VOIs may result in additional VOI sales being deferred or extend the period during which a sale is deferred.
In cases where construction and development on Bluegreen-owned resorts has not been substantially completed, Bluegreen recognizes revenue in accordance with the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Should Bluegreen’s estimates of the total anticipated cost of completing any of its projects increase, Bluegreen may be required to defer a greater amount of revenue or may be required to defer revenue for a longer period of time.
Under timeshare accounting rules, rental operations, including accommodations provided through the use of Bluegreen’s sampler program, are accounted for as incidental operations whereby incremental carrying costs in excess of incremental revenues are expensed as incurred. Conversely, incremental revenues in excess of incremental carrying costs are recorded as a reduction to the carrying cost of VOI inventory. Incremental carrying costs include costs that have been incurred by Bluegreen during the holding period of unsold VOIs, such as developer subsidies and maintenance fees on unsold VOI inventory. During each of the years presented, all of Bluegreen’s rental revenue and sampler revenue earned was recorded as an offset to cost of other fee-based services, as such amounts were less than the incremental carrying cost.
F-28

TABLE OF CONTENTS
In addition to sales of VOIs, Bluegreen also generates revenue from the activities listed below. The table provides a brief description of the applicable revenue recognition policy:
Activity
Revenue is recognized when:
Fee-based sales commissions
The sale transaction with the VOI purchaser is consummated in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third-party developer and the related consumer rescission period has expired.
Resort management and service fees Management services are rendered (1) .
Resort title fees
Escrow amounts are released and title documents are completed.
Rental and sampler program
Guests complete stays at the resorts. Rental and sampler program proceeds are classified as a reduction to “Cost of other fee-based services” in Bluegreen’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
(1)
In connection with Bluegreen’s management of HOAs, Bluegreen acts as agent for the HOA to operate the resort as provided under the management agreements. In certain cases, personnel at the resorts are Bluegreen employees. The HOAs bear the costs of such personnel and generally pay Bluegreen in advance of, or simultaneously with, the payment of payroll. In accordance with ASC 605-45, Overall Considerations of Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent , reimbursements from the HOAs relating to direct pass-through costs are recorded net of the related expenses.
Bluegreen’s cost of other fee-based services consists of the costs associated with the various activities described above, as well as developer subsidies and maintenance fees on Bluegreen’s unsold VOIs.
Notes Receivable
Bluegreen’s notes receivable are carried at amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. Interest income is suspended, and previously accrued but unpaid interest income is reversed, on all delinquent notes receivable when principal or interest payments are more than 90 days contractually past due and not resumed until such loans are less than 90 days past due. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, $11.4 million and $10.4 million, respectively, of Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable were more than 90 days past due, and accordingly, consistent with Bluegreen’s policy, were not accruing interest income. After 120 days, Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable are generally written off against the allowance for credit loss.
Bluegreen records an estimate of expected uncollectible VOI notes receivable as a reduction of revenue at the time Bluegreen recognizes a VOI sale. Bluegreen estimates uncollectible VOI notes receivable in accordance with timeshare accounting rules. Under these rules, the estimate of uncollectibles is based on historical uncollectibles for similar VOI notes receivable. Bluegreen uses a static pool analysis, which tracks uncollectibles for each year’s sales over the entire life of the notes. Bluegreen also considers whether the historical economic conditions are comparable to current economic conditions, as well as variations in underwriting standards. Additionally, under timeshare accounting rules, no consideration is given for future recoveries of defaulted inventory in the estimate of uncollectible VOI notes receivable. Bluegreen reviews its allowance for credit losses on at least a quarterly basis. Loan origination costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the related notes receivable.
Inventory
Bluegreen’s inventory consists of completed VOIs, VOIs under construction and land held for future VOI development. Bluegreen carries its completed inventory at the lower of  (i) cost, including costs of improvements and amenities incurred subsequent to acquisition, capitalized interest, real estate taxes and other costs incurred during construction, or (ii) estimated fair market value, less costs to sell. VOI inventory and cost of sales are accounted for under timeshare accounting rules, which require the use of a specific method of the relative sales value method for relieving VOI inventory and recording cost of sales. Under the relative sales value method required by timeshare accounting rules, cost of sales is calculated as a percentage
F-29

TABLE OF CONTENTS
of net sales using a cost-of-sales percentage - the ratio of total estimated development costs to total estimated VOI revenue, including the estimated incremental revenue from the resale of VOI inventory repossessed, generally as a result of the default of the related receivable. Also, pursuant to timeshare accounting rules, Bluegreen does not relieve inventory for VOI cost of sales related to anticipated credit losses. Accordingly, no adjustment is made when inventory is reacquired upon default of the related receivable.
Bluegreen also periodically evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its undeveloped or under development resort properties in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”), which provides guidance relating to the accounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. No impairment charges were recorded with respect to VOI inventory during any of the periods presented.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs are comprised of costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing from third-party lenders and are presented in Bluegreen’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as other assets or as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability. These costs are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the terms of the related financing arrangements. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, unamortized deferred financing costs totaled $13.1 million and $11.9 million, respectively. Interest expense from the amortization of deferred financing costs for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $3.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Bluegreen’s property and equipment is recorded at acquisition cost. Bluegreen records depreciation and amortization in a manner that recognizes the cost of its depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the terms of the underlying leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
Bluegreen capitalizes the costs of software developed for internal use in accordance with the guidance for accounting for costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Capitalization of software developed for internal use commences during the development phase of the project. Software developed or obtained for internal use is generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 to 5 years.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of property management contracts with various homeowners associations to manage, service, staff and maintain the property. The property management contracts have indefinite useful lives and are not amortized, but instead are reviewed for impairment on at least an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During the first quarter of 2015, the Company reduced the value of its property management contracts by $1.7 million as a result of the sale of one of its contracts. The company did not record any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2016 or 2015.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
Bluegreen evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets and intangibles under the guidelines of ASC 360. Bluegreen reviews the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If estimated cash flows are insufficient to recover the investment, an impairment loss is recognized to write-down the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value less any costs of disposition.
Deferred Income
Bluegreen defers VOI revenue, net of direct incremental selling expenses, for sales for which the legal rescission period has expired, but the required revenue recognition criteria described above has not been met. Additionally, in connection with its sampler programs, Bluegreen defers revenue, net of direct incremental selling expenses, for guest stays not yet completed. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Bluegreen’s deferred income was as follows (in thousands):

Income Taxes
Income tax expense is recognized at applicable U.S. or international tax rates. Certain revenue and expense items may be recognized in one period for financial statement purposes and in a different period for income tax purposes. The tax effects of such differences are reported as deferred income taxes. Valuation allowances are recorded for periods in which the realization of deferred tax assets does not meet a more likely than not standard. See Note 9 for additional information regarding income taxes.
Advertising Expense
Bluegreen expenses advertising costs, which are primarily marketing costs, as incurred. Advertising expense for Bluegreen was $144.4 million and $123.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
Bluegreen has entered into marketing arrangements with various third parties. For the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, sales of VOIs to prospects and leads generated by one marketing arrangement accounted for approximately 16% and 20% of VOI sales volume. There can be no guarantee that Bluegreen will be able to maintain this agreement in accordance with its terms or extend or renew this agreement on similar terms, or at all.
Change in Method of Accounting for Purchase Accounting Adjustments
In August 2017, Bluegreen elected to apply push down accounting and incorporate purchase accounting adjustments in its consolidated financial statements that resulted from the assets and liabilities of Bluegreen being measured at fair value in connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest in Bluegreen by BBX in November 2009. Bluegreen believes that incorporating purchase accounting adjustments in its consolidated financial statements is preferable as it increases the usefulness of its financial reporting and provides transparency and consistency to the users of its and BBX’s financial statements. The following financial statement line items as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were affected by the change in accounting principle (in thousands):

TABLE OF CONTENTS
In addition to adjusting the value of Bluegreen’s assets and liabilities, the adjustments above recognize previously unrecognized intangibles including Bluegreen’s contracts with various homeowners associations to manage, service, staff and maintain the properties. The intangible asset associated with the management contracts were fair valued using an income approach and excess earnings method whereby the revenues and costs attributable to the management contracts less charges for use of the contributory assets are used to determined excess earnings.
Significant changes to the fair value of the junior subordinated debentures were based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The non-controlling interest in Bluegreen/ Big Cedar Vacations was valued by adjusting the underlying assets and liabilities of Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations consistent with the methodology used for the valuation of Bluegreen’s assets and liabilities.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810) – Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”). This new guidance makes targeted amendments to the previous consolidation guidance and ends the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the VIE guidance. This standard became effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2016. Bluegreen’s adoption of ASU 2015-02 had no effect on Bluegreen’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. This standard became effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2016. Bluegreen’s adoption of ASU 2015-03 is reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and in the tables included in Note 6. As further displayed in the table below, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-03, Bluegreen reclassified certain unamortized debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability reported in Bluegreen’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 prior to such reclassification (in thousands):

Future Adoption of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” as subsequently amended (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 specifies how and when to recognize revenue from contracts with customers by providing a principle based framework. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2018. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial adoption. Bluegreen is currently analyzing the potential impact that adopting this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and its business processes, accounting policies and controls. While Bluegreen continues this analysis with respect to all material revenue streams, the recognition of fee-based sales commission revenue, ancillary revenues, and rental revenues is expected to remain materially unchanged. Bluegreen currently expects possible areas of impact will include (i) gross versus net presentation for payroll reimbursement related to resorts managed by Bluegreen on behalf of third parties and (ii) the timing of the recognition of VOI revenue related to the removal of certain brightline tests regarding the determination of the adequacy of the buyer’s commitment under existing industry-specific guidance. Final industry-specific guidance remains open for the following issues: (i) application of percentage of completion related to sales of incomplete VOIs, (ii) allocation of transaction price, (iii) satisfaction of performance obligations and (iv) contract costs.
F-33

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Due to the nature and potential significant impact of these open issues, Bluegreen expects to disclose additional details on the impact of the adoption of this accounting standard later in 2017 as industry-specific guidance is issued. Bluegreen anticipates adopting this standard on January 1, 2018.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). This update will require assets and liabilities to be recognized on the balance sheet of a lessee for the rights and obligations created by leases of assets with terms of more than 12 months. For income statement purposes, the update retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance based on largely similar criteria to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. ASU 2016-02 also requires extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures, including significant judgments made by management, to provide greater insight into the extent of revenue and expense recognized and expected to be recognized from existing leases. This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Bluegreen is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan losses. Further, public entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination (i.e., by vintage year). This standard will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted beginning January 1, 2019. Bluegreen is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)– Classifications of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which is intended to clarify the presentation of cash receipts and payments in specific situations. Further in November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)- Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires entities to show the changes in total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows with a reconciliation to the related captions in the balance sheet. These standards will be effective for Bluegreen on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Bluegreen’s adoption of ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 are not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Notes receivable secured by homesites were originated through a business, substantially all of the assets of which were sold by Bluegreen in 2012.
The weighted-average interest rate on Bluegreen’s notes receivable was 15.7% and 15.9% at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. All of Bluegreen’s VOI loans bear interest at fixed rates. The weighted-average interest rate charged on notes receivable secured by VOIs was 15.7% and 16.0% at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable are generally secured by property located in Florida, Missouri, Nevada, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.

Bluegreen holds large amounts of homogeneous VOI notes receivable and assesses uncollectibility based on pools of receivables. In estimating future credit losses, Bluegreen’s management does not use a single primary indicator of credit quality but instead evaluates its VOI notes receivable based upon a static pool analysis that incorporates the aging of the respective receivables, default trends and prepayment rates by origination year, as well as the FICO ® scores of the borrowers.

Includes $5.3 million and $5.2 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to VOI notes receivable that, as of such date, had defaulted, but the related VOI note receivable balance had not yet been charged off in accordance with the provisions of certain of Bluegreen’s receivable-backed notes payable transactions. These VOI notes receivable have been reflected in the allowance for credit losses.
3.   Variable Interest Entities
Bluegreen sells VOI notes receivable through special purpose finance entities. These transactions are generally structured as non-recourse to Bluegreen and are designed to provide liquidity for Bluegreen and to transfer the economic risks and certain benefits of the notes receivable to third parties. In a securitization, various classes of debt securities are issued by the special purpose finance entities that are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of VOI notes receivable. Bluegreen services the securitized notes receivable for a fee pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated with third parties based on market conditions at the time of the securitization.
In these securitizations, Bluegreen generally retains a portion of the securities and continues to service the securitized notes receivable. Under these arrangements, the cash payments received from obligors on the receivables sold are generally applied monthly to pay fees to service providers, make interest and principal payments to investors, and fund required reserves, if any, with the remaining balance of such cash retained by Bluegreen; however, to the extent the portfolio of receivables fails to satisfy specified performance criteria (as may occur due to, among other things, an increase in default rates or credit loss severity) or other trigger events occur, the funds received from obligors are distributed on an accelerated basis to investors. Depending on the circumstances and the transaction, the application of the accelerated payment formula may be permanent or temporary until the trigger event is cured. As of December 31, 2016, Bluegreen was in compliance with all applicable terms under its securitization transactions, and no trigger events had occurred.
In accordance with applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of VIEs, Bluegreen analyzes its variable interests, which may consist of loans, servicing rights, guarantees, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which it has a variable interest is a VIE. The analysis includes a review of both quantitative and qualitative factors. Bluegreen bases its quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flows of the entity, and bases its qualitative analysis on the design of the entity, its organizational structure, including decision-making ability, and relevant financial agreements. Bluegreen also uses its qualitative analysis to determine if Bluegreen must consolidate a VIE as the primary beneficiary. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, Bluegreen has determined these securitization entities to be VIEs of which Bluegreen is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, Bluegreen consolidates the entities into its financial statements.
Under the terms of certain of Bluegreen’s timeshare note sales, Bluegreen has the right to repurchase or substitute a limited amount of defaulted mortgage notes for new notes at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest. Voluntary repurchases and substitutions by Bluegreen of defaulted notes were $6.5 million and $3.3 million and during 2016 and 2015, respectively. Bluegreen’s maximum exposure to loss relating to its non-recourse securitization entities is the difference between the outstanding VOI notes receivable and the notes payable, plus cash reserves and any additional residual interest in future cash flows from collateral.

$ 238,534 $ 220,211
In September 2016, Bluegreen increased the selling price of its VOIs by 5%. As a result of this pricing change, Bluegreen’s management also increased its estimate of total gross margin generated on the sale of its VOI inventory. Under the relative sales value method prescribed for timeshare developers to relieve the cost of VOI inventory, changes to the estimate of gross margin expected to be generated on the sale of VOI inventory are recognized on a retrospective basis in earnings. Accordingly, during 2016, Bluegreen recognized a benefit to cost of VOI sold of  $5.6 million.
The interest expense reflected in Bluegreen’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is net of capitalized interest. Interest capitalized to VOI inventory was $0.4 million and $0.7 million during 2016 and 2015, respectively.

2013 Notes Payable.    In March 2013, Bluegreen issued $75.0 million of senior secured notes (the “2013 Notes Payable”) in a private financing transaction. The 2013 Notes Payable are secured by certain of Bluegreen’s assets, including primarily the cash flows from the residual interests relating to term securitizations and the VOI inventory in the BG Club 36 resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pursuant to the terms of the 2013 Notes Payable, Bluegreen is required to periodically pledge reacquired VOI inventory in the BG Club 36 resort. Bluegreen may also pledge additional residual interests from other term securitizations. In September 2016, the 2013 Notes Payable were amended to reduce the interest rate from 8.05% to 5.50%. The 2013 Notes Payable mature in March 2020, with certain required amortization during

TABLE OF CONTENTS
the seven-year term. The terms of the 2013 Notes Payable include certain covenants and events of default, which Bluegreen’s management considers to be customary for transactions of this type. The proceeds from the 2013 Notes Payable were used to fund a portion of the merger consideration paid to Bluegreen’s former shareholders in connection with the closing of Woodbridge’s April 2013 acquisition of Bluegreen.
Pacific Western Term Loan.    Bluegreen has a non-revolving term loan (the “Pacific Western Term Loan”) with Pacific Western Bank, as successor-by-merger to CapitalSource Bank, secured by unsold inventory and undeveloped land at the Bluegreen Odyssey Dells Resort. The Pacific Western Term Loan matures in June 2019, and bears interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 5.25% (6.02% at December 31, 2016). Interest payments are paid monthly. Principal payments are effected through release payments upon sales of the timeshare interests in the Bluegreen Odyssey Dells Resort that serve as collateral for the Pacific Western Term Loan, subject to mandatory principal reductions pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement. The Pacific Western Term Loan is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the Pacific Western Facility described below under “Receivable-Backed Notes Payable.”
Fifth Third Bank Note Payable.    In April 2008, Bluegreen entered into a note payable with Fifth Third Bank to finance an acquisition of real estate. The Fifth Third Bank Note Payable matures in August 2021. Principal and interest on amounts outstanding under the Fifth Third Bank Note Payable are payable monthly through maturity. The interest rate under the note equals the 30-day LIBOR plus 3.00%, with a 0.125% roundup provision (3.62% as of December 31, 2016).
NBA Line of Credit.    Since December 2013, Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations has had a revolving line of credit with National Bank of Arizona (the “NBA Line of Credit”). The NBA Line of Credit is secured by unsold inventory and VOIs under construction at Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacation’s Paradise Point Resort. The NBA Line of Credit has a borrowing limit of  $15.0 million, which is included in the $45.0 million of availability under the National Bank of Arizona (the “NBA Receivables Facility”) discussed below. The revolving advance period expires in June 2018 and the maturity is June 2020. The NBA Line of Credit bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR plus 3.50% (with an interest rate floor of 5.00%) in connection with the final funding of the construction loan for the Paradise Point Resort. Interest payments are paid monthly. Principal payments are effected through release payments upon sales of the timeshare interests in the Paradise Point Resort that serve as collateral for the NBA Line of Credit, subject to mandatory principal reductions. The NBA Line of Credit is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the NBA Receivables Facility described below under “Receivable-Backed Notes Payable.”
Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit and Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan.    In November 2014, Bluegreen entered into a $25.0 million revolving credit facility with Fifth Third Bank as administrative agent and lead arranger and certain other bank participants as lenders. The facility was secured by certain of Bluegreen’s sales centers, certain VOI inventory and specified non-consumer receivables and was guaranteed by certain of Bluegreen’s subsidiaries. In December 2016, Bluegreen amended and restated the credit and security agreement. The amended and restated facility is a $100.0 million syndicated credit facility with Fifth Third, as administrative agent and lead arranger and certain other bank participants. The amended and restated facility includes a $25.0 million term loan (the “Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan”) with quarterly amortization requirements and a $75.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit”). Amounts borrowed under the facility generally bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% - 3.75% depending on Bluegreen’s leverage ratio, are collateralized by certain of Bluegreen’s VOI inventory, sales center buildings and short-term receivables, and will mature in December 2021. The facility contains covenants and conditions which Bluegreen considers to be customary for transactions of this type. Borrowings are used by Bluegreen for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2016, outstanding borrowings under the facility totaled $40.0 million, including the $25.0 million Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan and $15.0 million of borrowings under the Fifth Third Syndicated Line-of-Credit. As of December 31, 2016, the interest rate under the Fifth Third Syndicated Term Loan and the Fifth Third Syndicated Line of Credit was 3.46%.

Liberty Bank Facility.    Since 2008, Bluegreen has maintained a revolving timeshare receivables hypothecation facility (the “Liberty Bank Facility”) with Liberty Bank which provides for advances on eligible receivables pledged under the Liberty Bank Facility, subject to specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, as amended in November 2015, the aggregate maximum outstanding borrowings are $50.0 million and the revolving credit period will expire in November 2017. The Liberty Bank Facility allows future advances of  (i) 85% of the unpaid principal balance of Qualified Timeshare Loans assigned to agent, and (ii) 60% of the unpaid principal balance of Non-Conforming Qualified Timeshare Loans assigned to agent, all of which bear interest at the WSJ Prime Rate plus 0.50% per annum subject to a 4.00% floor. Principal and interest are required to be paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, with all outstanding amounts being due in November 2020. In March 2016, Bluegreen repaid $24.2 million, including accrued interest, under the facility in connection with the 2016 Term Securitization described below.
NBA Receivables Facility.    Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations has a revolving timeshare hypothecation facility with NBA. The NBA Receivables Facility provides for advances at a rate of 85% on eligible receivables pledged under the facility up to a maximum of  $45.0 million of outstanding borrowings (inclusive of outstanding borrowings under the NBA Line of Credit discussed above), subject to eligible collateral and specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period which expires in June 2018. In September 2016, NBA agreed to advance eligible timeshare receivables through December 16, 2016 in a minimum amount of  $15.0 million, but not to exceed $45.0 million of outstanding borrowings and subject to certain conditions and other terms of the facility at a reduced interest rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus
F-40

TABLE OF CONTENTS
2.75% (with an interest rate floor of 3.50%). Amounts outstanding under the NBA Receivables Facility for borrowings made prior to the September 2016 amendment accrue interest at the previously prevailing rates of 30-day LIBOR plus 3.25% (with an interest rate floor of 4.00%). Except as described above, all other future borrowings will accrue interest at a rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus 3.25% (with an interest rate floor of 4.00%). Principal repayments and interest on borrowings under the NBA Receivables Facility are paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, subject to future required decreases in the advance rates after the expiration of the revolving advance period, with the remaining outstanding balance maturing in December 2022. As of December 31, 2016, $14.1 million of the outstanding balance bears interest at 4.0% and $20.1 million of the outstanding balance bears interest at 3.50%. All principal and interest payments received on pledged receivables are applied to principal and interest due under the facility. The NBA Receivables Facility is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the NBA Line of Credit described above.
Pacific Western Facility.    Bluegreen has a revolving timeshare receivables hypothecation facility (the “Pacific Western Facility”) with Pacific Western Bank, as successor-by-merger to CapitalSource Bank, which provides for advances on eligible receivables pledged under the facility, subject to specified terms and conditions, during a revolving credit period. Maximum outstanding borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility are $40.0 million (inclusive of outstanding borrowings under the Pacific Western Term Loan discussed above), subject to eligible collateral and other terms and conditions. The revolving advance period expiration date is September 2018, subject to an additional 12-month extension at the option of Pacific Western Bank. Eligible “A” receivables that meet certain eligibility and FICO ® score requirements, which Bluegreen’s management believes are typically consistent with loans originated under Bluegreen’s current credit underwriting standards, are subject to an 85% advance rate. The Pacific Western Facility also allows for certain eligible “B” receivables (which have less stringent FICO ® score requirements) to be funded at a 53% advance rate. Borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility accrue interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 4.50%, except that the interest rate on a portion of future borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility, to the extent such borrowings are in excess of established debt minimums, will accrue interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 4.00%. Principal repayments and interest on borrowings under the Pacific Western Facility are paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, subject to future required decreases in the advance rates after the end of the revolving advance period, with the remaining outstanding balance maturing in September 2021, subject to an additional 12-month extension at the option of Pacific Western Bank. As of December 31, 2016, the interest rate on the facility was 5.1%. The Pacific Western Facility is cross-collateralized and is subject to cross-default with the Pacific Western Term Loan.
BB&T/DZ Purchase Facility.    Bluegreen has a timeshare notes receivable purchase facility (the “BB&T/DZ Purchase Facility”) with Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BB&T”) and DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt AM Main (“DZ”), which permits maximum outstanding financings of  $80.0 million. Availability under the BB&T/DZ Purchase Facility is on a revolving basis through December 2017, and amounts financed are secured by timeshare receivables at an advance rate of 75%, subject to eligible collateral and other terms of the facility, which Bluegreen believes to be customary for financing arrangements of this type. The facility will mature and all outstanding amounts will become due thirty-six months after the revolving advance period has expired, or earlier under certain circumstances set forth in the facility. Interest on amounts outstanding under the facility is tied to an applicable index rate of the LIBOR rate, in the case of amounts funded by BB&T, and a cost of funds rate or commercial paper rates, in the case of amounts funded by or through DZ. The interest rate under the facility equals the applicable index rate plus 2.9% until the expiration of the revolving advance period and thereafter will equal the applicable index rate plus 4.9%. Subject to the terms of the facility, Bluegreen will receive the excess cash flows generated by the receivables sold (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest and principal under the facility) until the expiration of the receivables advance period, at which point all of the excess cash flow will be paid to the note holders until the outstanding balance is reduced to zero. In March 2016, Bluegreen repaid $49.0 million, including accrued interest, under the facility in connection with the 2016 Term Securitization described below. While ownership of the timeshare receivables included in the facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these timeshare receivables is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse and is not guaranteed by Bluegreen.

Quorum Purchase Facility.    Bluegreen and Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations have a timeshare notes receivable purchase facility (the “Quorum Purchase Facility”) with Quorum Federal Credit Union (“Quorum”). In October 2015, Quorum agreed to purchase, on a revolving basis through June 30, 2017, eligible timeshare receivables in an amount of up to an aggregate $50.0 million purchase price, subject to certain conditions precedent and other terms of the facility. In October 2016, the Quorum Purchase Facility was amended and the advance period was extended through June 30, 2018. The interest rate on future advances made under the Quorum Purchase Facility will be set at the time of funding based on rates mutually agreed upon by all parties. Amounts currently outstanding under the Quorum Purchase Facility accrue interest at interest rates ranging from 4.75% to 6.90% per annum. The Quorum Purchase Facility provides for an 85% advance rate on eligible receivables sold under the facility. Future advances are also subject to a loan purchase fee of 0.50%. The Quorum Purchase Facility becomes due in December 2030. Eligibility requirements for receivables sold include, among others, that the obligors under the timeshare notes receivable sold be members of Quorum at the time of the note sale. Subject to performance of the collateral, Bluegreen or Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, as applicable, will receive any excess cash flows generated by the receivables transferred to Quorum under the facility (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the facility) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their timeshare loans. While ownership of the timeshare receivables included in the Quorum Purchase Facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these timeshare receivables is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse and is not guaranteed by Bluegreen.
2015 Term Securitization.    On January 29, 2015, Bluegreen completed a private offering and sale of $117.8 million of investment-grade, timeshare receivable-backed notes (the “2015 Term Securitization”). The 2015 Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of two tranches of timeshare receivable-backed notes (the “Notes”): $89.4 million of A rated and $28.4 million of BBB/BBB- rated notes with note interest rates of 2.88% and 3.47%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average note interest rate of 3.02%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 94.25%. The Notes mature in May 2030.
The amount of the timeshare receivables sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2015-A (the “2015 Trust”) was $125.0 million, $100.2 million of which was sold to the 2015 Trust at closing and $24.8 million of which was subsequently sold to the 2015 Trust during 2015. The gross proceeds of such sales to the 2015 Trust were $117.8 million. A portion of the proceeds were used to: repay the BB&T/DZ Purchase Facility a total of  $42.3 million, representing all amounts then outstanding (including accrued interest); repay $22.3 million under the Liberty Bank Facility plus accrued interest; capitalize a reserve fund; and pay fees and expenses associated with the transaction. Prior to the closing of the 2015 Term Securitization, Bluegreen, as servicer, funded $9.5 million in connection with the servicer redemption of the notes related to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2006-B, and certain of the timeshare loans in such trust were sold to the 2015 Trust in connection with the 2015 Term Securitization. The remaining $40 million of proceeds from the 2015 Term Securitization were used by Bluegreen for general corporate purposes.
While ownership of the timeshare receivables included in the 2015 Term Securitization is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these timeshare receivables is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. Subject to performance of the collateral, Bluegreen will receive any excess cash flows generated by the receivables transferred under the 2015 Term Securitization (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the 2015 Term Securitization) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their timeshare loans.
2016 Term Securitization.    On March 17, 2016, Bluegreen completed a private offering and sale of $130.5 million of investment-grade, timeshare receivable-backed notes (the “2016 Term Securitization”). The 2016 Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of two tranches of timeshare receivable-backed notes (the “Notes”): $95.7 million of Class A and $34.8 million of Class B notes with note interest rates of 3.17% and 3.86%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted-average note interest rate of 3.35%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 90%. The Notes mature in July 2031.
The amount of the timeshare receivables sold to BXG Receivable Note Trust 2016 (the “2016 Trust”) was $145.0 million, $122.3 million of which was sold to the 2016 Trust at closing and $22.7 million of which was subsequently sold to the 2016 Trust. The gross proceeds of such sales to the 2016 Trust were $130.5 million.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
A portion of the proceeds were used to: repay the BB&T/DZ Purchase Facility a total of  $49.0 million, representing all amounts then outstanding under the facility (including accrued interest); repay $24.2 million under the Liberty Bank Facility, which includes accrued interest; capitalize a reserve fund; and pay fees and expenses associated with the transaction. Prior to the closing of the 2016 Term Securitization, Bluegreen, as servicer, funded $11.3 million in connection with the servicer redemption of the notes related to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2007-A, and certain of the timeshare loans in such trust were sold to the 2016 Trust in connection with the 2016 Term Securitization. In April 2016, Bluegreen, as servicer, funded $6.1 million in connection with the servicer redemption of the notes related to the BXG Receivables Note Trust 2008-A, and certain of the timeshare loans in such trust were sold to the 2016 Trust in connection with the 2016 Term Securitization. The remainder of the net proceeds from the 2016 Term Securitization of $36.0 million were used by Bluegreen for general corporate purposes.
While ownership of the timeshare receivables included in the 2016 Term Securitization was transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these timeshare receivables was accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. Subject to the performance of the collateral, Bluegreen will receive any excess cash flows generated by the receivables transferred under the 2016 Term Securitization (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the 2016 Term Securitization) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their timeshare loans.
Other Non-Recourse Receivable-Backed Notes Payable.    In addition to the above described facilities, Bluegreen has a number of other nonrecourse receivable-backed notes payable facilities, as set forth in the table above. During 2016, Bluegreen repaid $82.6 million under these additional receivable-backed notes payable facilities, including the payment in full of the notes payable issued in connection with the 2007 and 2008 Term Securitizations. During 2016, Bluegreen wrote off the related unamortized 2007 and 2008 Term Securitization debt issuance costs, totaling approximately $0.5 million. During 2015, Bluegreen repaid $75.2 million under these additional receivable-backed notes payable facilities, including the payment in full of the GE 2006 Facility and the notes payable issued in connection with the 2006 Term Securitization. During 2015, Bluegreen wrote off the related unamortized GE 2006 Facility and 2006 Term Securitization debt issuance costs totaling approximately $0.2 million.
Junior Subordinated Debentures
Bluegreen has formed statutory business trusts (collectively, the “Trusts”), each of which issued trust preferred securities as part of a larger pooled trust securities offering which was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and invested the proceeds thereof in its junior subordinated debentures. The Trusts are variable interest entities in which Bluegreen is not the primary beneficiary as defined by ASC 810. Accordingly, Bluegreen does not consolidate the operations of the Trusts; instead, Bluegreen’s beneficial interests in the Trusts are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Bluegreen’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the Trusts is limited to the carrying amount of Bluegreen’s equity method investment. Distributions on the trust preferred securities are cumulative and based upon the liquidation value of the trust preferred security. The trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the junior subordinated debentures at maturity or their earlier redemption. The junior subordinated debentures are redeemable in whole or in part at Bluegreen’s option at any time. In addition, Bluegreen made an initial equity contribution to each Trust in exchange for its common securities, all of which are owned by Bluegreen, and those proceeds were also used by the applicable Trust to purchase an identical amount of junior subordinated debentures from Bluegreen. The terms of each Trust’s common securities are nearly identical to the trust preferred securities.
Interest on the junior subordinated debentures and distributions on the trust preferred securities are payable quarterly in arrears at the same interest rate.

7.   Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:
Level 1:
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
The carrying amounts of financial instruments included in the consolidated financial statements and their estimated fair values are as follows (in thousands):

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Lines-of-credit, notes payable, and receivable-backed notes payable. The amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair value for indebtedness that provides for variable interest rates. The fair value of Bluegreen’s fixed-rate, receivable-backed notes payable was determined using Level 3 inputs by discounting the net cash outflows estimated to be used to repay the debt. These obligations are to be satisfied using the proceeds from the consumer loans that secure the obligations.
Junior subordinated debentures.    The fair value of Bluegreen’s junior subordinated debentures is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on the contractual cash flows discounted at a market rate or based on market price quotes from the over-the-counter bond market.
8.   Commitments and Contingencies
In lieu of paying maintenance fees for unsold VOI inventory, Bluegreen provides subsidies to certain HOAs to provide for funds necessary to operate and maintain vacation ownership properties in excess of assessments collected from owners of the VOIs. During 2016 and 2015, respectively, Bluegreen made payments related to subsidies of  $13.9 million and $15.8 million. As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Bluegreen had no liability for such subsidies. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, Bluegreen was providing subsidies to nine HOAs.
In October 2013, Bluegreen entered into an agreement to purchase from an unaffiliated third party completed VOI inventory at the Lake Eve Resort in Orlando, Florida over a five-year period. The total purchase commitment was $35.1 million, of which $5.4 million and $5.0 million of inventory was purchased in 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, $13.5 million of the Lake Eve Resort purchase commitment remained.
Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $12.3 million and $10.2 million, respectively. Lease commitments under these and Bluegreen’s various other non-cancelable operating leases for each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 2016 and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

In June 2015, Bluegreen entered into certain agreements with its former CEO, John Maloney, who resigned from Bluegreen on May 27, 2015. Under the terms of these agreements, Mr. Maloney received $3.8 million at the time of resignation and is entitled to receive an additional $2.9 million over the subsequent 2-year period in exchange for ongoing consulting services during the term of the agreements. As of December 31, 2016, $0.7 million is left to be paid under this arrangement.
In the ordinary course of business, Bluegreen becomes subject to claims or proceedings from time to time relating to the purchase, sale, marketing, or financing of VOIs or Bluegreen’s other business activities. Bluegreen is also subject to certain matters relating to the Bluegreen Communities’ business, substantially all of the assets of which were sold by Bluegreen on May 4, 2012. Additionally, from time to time, Bluegreen becomes involved in disputes with existing and former employees, vendors, taxing jurisdictions and various other parties. From time to time in the ordinary course of business, Bluegreen also receives individual consumer complaints, as well as complaints received through regulatory and consumer agencies, including Offices of State Attorneys General. Bluegreen takes these matters seriously and attempts to resolve any such issues as they arise.
Reserves are accrued for matters in which Bluegreen’s management believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Bluegreen’s management does not believe that the aggregate liability relating to known contingencies in excess of the aggregate amounts accrued will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition. However, litigation is
F-45

TABLE OF CONTENTS
inherently uncertain and the actual costs of resolving legal claims, including awards of damages, may be substantially higher than the amounts accrued for these claims and may have a material adverse impact on Bluegreen’s results of operations or financial condition.
Bluegreen’s management is not at this time able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to matters in which it is reasonably possible that a loss will occur. In certain matters, Bluegreen’s management is unable to estimate the loss or reasonable range of loss until additional developments provide information sufficient to support an assessment of the loss or range of loss. Frequently in these matters, the claims are broad and the plaintiffs have not quantified or factually supported their claim.

As of December 31, 2016, Bluegreen had alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of  $2.7 million, which never expire, and state operating loss carryforwards of  $280.7 million, which expire from 2017 through 2036.
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 addresses limitations on the use of net operating loss carryforwards following a change in ownership, as defined in Section 382. Bluegreen does not believe that any such ownership change occurred during 2016 or 2015. If Bluegreen’s interpretation were found to be incorrect, there would be significant limitations placed on these carryforwards, which would result in an increase in Bluegreen’s tax liability and negatively impact its results of operations.
Bluegreen and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With certain exceptions, Bluegreen is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014 for federal returns and 2012 for state returns.
Bluegreen’s effective income tax rate was approximately 35% and 38% during 2016 and 2015, respectively. Effective income tax rates for interim periods are based upon Bluegreen’s current estimated annual rate. Bluegreen’s annual effective income tax rate varies based upon the estimate of taxable earnings as well as on the mix of taxable earnings in the various states in which Bluegreen operates.
Bluegreen evaluates its tax positions based upon guidelines of ASC 740-10, Income Tax , which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. Based on an evaluation of uncertain tax provisions, Bluegreen is required to measure tax benefits based on the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. In accordance with Bluegreen’s accounting policy, Bluegreen recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized taxes as a component of general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, Bluegreen did not recognize any interest or penalties related to ASC 740-10.
In August 2015, Bluegreen received notice from the Internal Revenue Service that its Income Tax Return for the year ended December 31, 2013 was selected for examination. In September 2015, the examination was extended to include the tax year ended December 31, 2012. In October 2015, the examination was further extended to include payroll taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013. In April 2016, Bluegreen received
F-47

TABLE OF CONTENTS
notification from the Internal Revenue Service that the 2013 payroll tax examination was closed with no adjustments. In May 2016, Bluegreen received notification from the Internal Revenue Service that the examination for the tax years ended December 2013 and December 2012 was closed with no adjustments.
Certain of Bluegreen’s other state filings are under routine examination. While there is no assurance as to the results of these audits, Bluegreen does not currently anticipate any material adjustments in connection with these examinations.
In May 2015, Woodbridge, Bluegreen’s parent company, and its members at the time, and Bluegreen and their respective subsidiaries entered into an Agreement to Allocate Consolidated Income Tax Liability and Benefits pursuant to which, among other customary terms and conditions, the parties agreed to file consolidated federal tax returns. Under the agreement, the parties calculate their respective income tax liabilities and attributes as if each of them was a separate filer. If any tax attributes are used by another party to the agreement to offset its tax liability, the party providing the benefit will receive an amount for the tax benefits realized. Bluegreen paid BBX Capital or its affiliated entities $26.2 million and $19.2 million during 2016 and 2015, respectively, pursuant to the Agreement to Allocate Consolidated Income Tax Liability and Benefits.
10.   Employee Retirement Savings Plan and Other Employee Matters
Bluegreen’s Employee Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) is an Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan. Historically, all U.S.-based employees at least 21 years of age with at least three months of employment with Bluegreen are eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan. The Retirement Plan provides for an annual employer discretionary matching contribution. In December 2013, Bluegreen approved a basic matching contribution equal to 100% of each participant’s contributions not exceeding 3% of each participant’s compensation, plus 50% of the participant’s contributions in excess of 3% but not in excess of 5% of the participant’s compensation. Further, Bluegreen may make additional discretionary matching contributions not to exceed 4% of each participant’s compensation. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, expenses recorded for Bluegreen’s contributions to the Bluegreen Retirement Plan totaled $5.0 million and $4.8 million, respectively.
11.   Related Party Transactions
As described in Note 1, Woodbridge, which is the sole shareholder of Bluegreen, is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBX Capital. BBX Capital may be deemed to be controlled by Alan B. Levan, Chairman of BBX Capital, and John E. Abdo, Vice Chairman of BBX Capital. Together, Messrs. Levan and Abdo may be deemed to beneficially own shares of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing approximately 76% of BBX Capital’s total voting power. Mr. Levan served as Chairman of Bluegreen and BBX Capital until his resignation from such positions during 2015. Mr. Abdo was appointed as Mr. Levan’s successor as Chairman of Bluegreen.
From 2013 until January 2016, BBX Capital’s employees were provided health insurance under policies maintained by Bluegreen. BBX Capital reimbursed Bluegreen at cost, which was approximately $0.2 million and $1.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. BBX Capital established its own health insurance policies starting in January 1, 2016.
In April 2015, pursuant to a Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, BSF provided an $80.0 million loan to BBX Capital. Amounts outstanding on the loan bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum until July 2017 when the interest rate was reduced to 6% per annum. Payments of interest are required on a quarterly basis, with all outstanding amounts being due and payable at the end of five years. BBX Capital is permitted to prepay the loan in whole or in part at any time, and prepayments will be required, to the extent necessary, in order for Bluegreen or its subsidiaries to remain in compliance with covenants under their outstanding indebtedness. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Bluegreen recognized $8.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of interest income on the loan to BBX Capital.
Bluegreen paid or reimbursed BBX Capital or its affiliated entities $1.3 million and $1.4 million during 2016 and 2015, respectively, for management advisory, risk management, administrative and other services. Bluegreen accrued $0.2 million for the services described above in each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

12.   Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Reportable segments consist of one or more operating segments with similar economic characteristics, products and services, production processes, type of customer, distribution system or regulatory environment.
The information provided for segment reporting is obtained from internal reports utilized by management of Bluegreen. The presentation and allocation of results of operations may not reflect the actual economic costs of the segments as standalone businesses. Management does not evaluate the balance sheet by segment. If a different basis of allocation were utilized, the relative contributions of the segments might differ but the relative trends in the segments’ operating results would, in management’s view, likely not be impacted.
For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, Bluegreen reported its results of operations through two reportable segments:
Sales of VOIs and financing – Bluegreen markets and sells VOIs that it owns. Additionally, Bluegreen also sells VOIs through fee-for-service agreements with third-party developers. Related to the sales of the VOIs that Bluegreen owns, Bluegreen provides consumer financing, which generates interest income for Bluegreen. Bluegreen also generates revenues from providing title services through a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Resort operations and club management – Bluegreen provides management services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and to a majority of the HOAs of the resorts within the Bluegreen Vacation Club. Bluegreen also manages the club reservation services, provides services to owners and performs billing and collections services to the Bluegreen Vacation Club and certain HOAs. Additionally, Bluegreen generates revenue from its Traveler’s Plus TM program, food and beverage and other retail operations. Bluegreen also earns commissions from providing rental services to third parties and fees from managing the construction activities of certain of its fee-based clients.

13.   Subsequent Events
In May 2017, Bluegreen paid dividends totaling $20.0 million to Woodbridge, its parent company.
On May 19, 2017, Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable purchase facility with DZ, and, at that time, BB&T which permits maximum outstanding financings of  $80.0 million, was amended and restated to extend the advance period from December 2017 to December 2019 and increase the advance rate with respect to VOI notes receivable securing amounts financed from 75% to 80%. In connection with, the amendment and restatement, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) replaced BB&T as a funding agent. The facility (the “KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility”) will mature and all outstanding amounts will become due 36 months after the revolving advance period has expired, or earlier under certain circumstances set forth in the facility. Interest on amounts outstanding under the facility is tied to an applicable index rate of the LIBOR rate, in the case of amounts funded by KeyBank (including amounts previously funded by BB&T), and a cost of funds rate or commercial paper rates, in the case of amounts funded by or through DZ. The interest rate under the facility equals the applicable index rate plus 2.75% until the expiration of the revolving advance period and thereafter will equal the applicable index rate plus 4.75%. Subject to the terms of the facility, Bluegreen will receive the excess cash flows generated by the VOI notes receivable sold (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest and principal under the facility) until the expiration of the VOI notes receivable advance period, at which point all of the excess cash flow will be paid to the note

holders until the outstanding balance is reduced to zero. While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the facility is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The facility is nonrecourse and is not guaranteed by Bluegreen.
On June 6, 2017, Bluegreen completed a private offering and sale of approximately $120.2 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes (the “2017 Term Securitization”). The 2017 Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of two tranches of VOI receivable-backed notes (the “Notes”): approximately $88.8 million of Class A notes and approximately $31.4 million of Class B notes with note interest rates of 2.95% and 3.59%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average note interest rate of approximately 3.12%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 88%. The Notes mature in October 2032.
The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold or to be sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017 (the “Trust”) is $136.5 million, and is expected to be sold to the Trust by October 4, 2017. The gross proceeds of such sales to the Trust were $120.2 million. A portion of the proceeds received was used to: repay KeyBank and DZ $32.3 million, representing all amounts outstanding (including accrued interest) under the KeyBank/DZ Purchase Facility; repay Liberty Bank approximately $26.8 million (including accrued interest) under Bluegreen’s existing facility with Liberty Bank; capitalize a reserve fund; and pay fees and expenses associated with the transaction. In April 2017, Bluegreen, as servicer, redeemed the notes related to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2010-A for approximately $10.0 million, and certain of the VOI notes receivable in such trust were sold to the Trust in connection with, the 2017 Term Securitization. The remainder of the gross proceeds from the 2017 Term Securitization were or are expected to be used by Bluegreen for general corporate purposes.
While ownership of the VOI notes receivable included in the 2017 Term Securitization is transferred and sold for legal purposes, the transfer of these VOI notes receivable is accounted for as a secured borrowing for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. Subject to the performance of the collateral, Bluegreen will receive any excess cash flows generated by the VOI notes receivable transferred under the 2017 Term Securitization (excess meaning after payments of customary fees, interest, and principal under the 2017 Term Securitization) on a pro-rata basis as borrowers make payments on their VOI notes receivable.
On August 24, 2016, Whitney Paxton and Jeff Reeser filed a lawsuit against Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. (“BVU”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bluegreen, and certain employees of BVU, seeking to establish a class action of formed and current employees of BVU alleging violations of plaintiffs’ rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (the “FSLA”) and breach of contract. The lawsuit also alleges that BVU terminated plaintiff Whitney Paxton as retaliation for her complaints about violations of the FSLA. The lawsuit seeks damages in the amount of the unpaid compensation owed to plaintiffs. On July 27, 2017, a magistrate judge entered a report and recommendation to conditionally certify collective action and facilitate notice to potential class members be granted with respect to certain employees and denied as to others. Management believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action.
Subsequent events have been evaluated through August 17, 2017, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. As of this date there were no events identified that require recognition or disclosure, except as noted above.

Item 14.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Florida Business Corporation Act (the “FBCA”) generally provides that a director of a Florida corporation is not personally liable for monetary damages to the corporation or any other person for any statement, vote, decision or failure to act regarding corporate management or policy, unless the director breached or failed to perform his or her duties as a director and the director’s breach of or failure to perform those duties constitutes (i) a violation of criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, (ii) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, either directly or indirectly, (iii) an unlawful distribution, (iv) in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation or in the right of a shareholder, conscious disregard for the best interest of the corporation or willful misconduct, or (v) in a proceeding by or in the right of someone other than the corporation or a shareholder, recklessness or an act or omission which was committed in bad faith or with malicious purpose or in a manner exhibiting wanton and willful disregard of human rights, safety or property.
In addition, the FBCA provides that a Florida corporation has the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation), because he or she was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against liability incurred in connection with such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
The FBCA further provides that a Florida corporation has the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because that person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors of the corporation, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof. Such indemnification is authorized if such person acted in
II-1

TABLE OF CONTENTS
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification with regard to a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation is to be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been found liable unless, and only to the extent that, the court in which the proceeding was brought, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.
Under the FBCA, to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a Florida corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding referred to in the preceding two paragraphs, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws contain indemnification provisions substantially similar to the above-described provisions of the FBCA relating to indemnification. In addition, we carry insurance permitted by the laws of the State of Florida for our directors, officers, employees and agents which covers alleged or actual error or omission, misstatement, misleading misstatement, neglect or breach of fiduciary duty while acting in such capacities on our behalf, which acts may include liabilities under the Securities Act.
In the underwriting agreement to be entered into in connection with the sale of our common stock being registered hereby, the underwriters will agree to indemnify, under certain conditions, us, our directors, our officers and the selling shareholder against certain liabilities.
Item 15.   Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
The following is a summary of our transactions since January 1, 2014 involving sales of our securities that were not registered under the Securities Act. Also included is the consideration, if any, received by us or our affiliates for such securities and information relating to the section of the Securities Act, or rule of the SEC, under which we claimed an exemption from registration.
On June 6, 2017, we completed a private offering and sale of approximately $120.2 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes, consisting of approximately $88.8 million of Class A notes and approximately $31.4 million of Class B notes with interest rates of 2.95% and 3.59%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.12%. The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold or to be sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017-A is approximately $136.5 million, approximately $117.0 million of which was sold to the trust at closing, $3.0 million of which was subsequently sold to the trust during June 2017 and $16.6 million of which is expected to be sold to the Trust by October 4, 2017.
On March 17, 2016, we completed a private offering and sale of  $130.5 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes, consisting of approximately $95.7 million of Class A notes and approximately $34.8 million of Class B notes with interest rates of 3.17% and 3.86%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted-average interest rate of 3.35%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 90%. The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold to BXG Receivable Note Trust 2016 was $145.0 million.
On January 29, 2015, we completed a private offering and sale of approximately $117.8 million of investment-grade, VOI receivable-backed notes, consisting of approximately $89.4 million of Class A notes and approximately $28.4 million of Class B notes with interest rates of 2.88% and 3.47%, respectively, which blended to an overall weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.02%. The amount of the VOI notes receivable sold to BXG Receivables Note Trust 2015-A was approximately $125.0 million.
All of the notes offered and sold in our 2017, 2016 and 2015 term securitization transactions described above were offered and sold to the initial purchasers in the transactions in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering, and were subsequently offered and sold by the initial purchasers only to qualified institutional buyers, in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and outside the United States to non-U.S. investors pursuant to Regulation S.

(a)    Exhibits . The exhibits to this Registration Statement are set forth under “Index to Exhibits” at the end of this Registration statement and are incorporated herein by reference.
(b)    Financial Statement Schedules . No financial statement schedules have been provided because they are not required or are not applicable or because the information is included in the consolidated financial statements or the notes thereto.
Item 17.   Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, unenforceable. In the event a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer of controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)   For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2)   For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(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 ”.

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.

(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.

 

(c)          Whether delivered pursuant to the document delivery requirements set forth in Sections 4.1 in relation to the Closing or Section 4.2 in connection with any Advance, as applicable, or to the extent not previously delivered in connection with any Pledged Receivable, Borrower shall, in relation to each Pledged Receivable, deliver to Agent or Custodian all items that Agent or Custodian must receive possession of to obtain a perfected Lien and security interest, including all Timeshare Documents, Timeshare Collateral, any other Custodian Deliverables, in each case to the extent not already in possession of Agent or Custodian;

 

(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.

 

  38  

 

 

2.11          Power of Attorney

 

Following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Agent is hereby irrevocably made, constituted and appointed the true and lawful attorney for Borrower (without requiring Agent to act as such) with full power of substitution to do the following (all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement): (i) endorse the name of Borrower upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders and other instruments for the payment of money that are payable to Borrower and constitute collections on any Pledged Receivables; (ii) execute and/or file in the name of Borrower any financing statements, amendments to financing statements, schedules to financing statements, releases or terminations thereof, assignments, instruments or documents that it is obligated to execute and/or file under any of the Loan Documents (to the extent Borrower fails to so execute and/or file any of the foregoing within three (3) Business Days of Agent’s written request or the time when Borrower is otherwise obligated to do so); (iii) execute and/or file in the name of Borrower assignments, instruments, documents, schedules and statements that it is obligated to give Agent under any of the Loan Documents (to the extent Borrower fails to so execute and/or file any of the foregoing within three (3) Business Days of Agent’s written request or the time when Borrower is otherwise obligated to do so) and (iv) do such other and further acts and deeds in the name of Borrower that Agent may deem reasonably necessary to enforce, make, create, maintain, continue, enforce or perfect Agent’s security interest, Lien or rights in any Collateral. 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.

Each Assignment shall be in a form which is properly recordable in the applicable real estate records in the state in which the applicable Resort is located.

 

  39  

 

 

2.13          Notice to Obligors

 

(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.

 

(b)          Borrower shall deliver to Agent on the Closing Date, a form of notice to Obligors advising them of the collateral assignment of their Pledged Receivable to Agent and directing that all payments on account of such Obligor’s Pledged Receivable be made as directed in Section 2.3(a) , which notice (the “ Notice to Purchasers ”) shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I . 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  

 

 

3.6            Minimum Yield Maintenance 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 the product of (a) a percentage equal to the Calculated Rate multiplied by (b) the positive difference, if any, between (i)(A) as it relates to any date of determination prior to September 21, 2013, $22,500,000; (B) as it relates to any date of determination on or after September 21, 2013, $19,000,000; or (C) as it relates to any date of determination on or after September 21, 2016, in the event Lenders agree to extend the Revolving Credit Period Expiration Date by a one (1) year period as set forth in the definition of “Revolving Credit Period Expiration Date” hereunder, $10,000,000 and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the Average Daily Balance of the Loan during such prior calendar month plus (y) the outstanding principal balance of the Inventory Loan as of the last day of such prior calendar month. The Minimum Yield Maintenance Fee shall be waived (i) for the three calendar months following a Securitization Event involving the pay-down of the Loan in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or more, provided, such waiver shall only apply to one Securitization Event per calendar year and (ii) upon the termination of the Revolving Credit Period.

No rights are intended to be created under any Loan Document for the benefit of any third party donee, creditor or incidental beneficiary of Borrower. Nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as a delegation to Agent of any other Person’s duty of performance. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT AGENT, AT NO EXPENSE TO BORROWER, AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME MAY (I) DIVIDE AND REISSUE (WITHOUT SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES OTHER THAN THOSE RESULTING FROM SUCH DIVISION) THE NOTES, AND/OR (II) SELL, ASSIGN OR GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR TRANSFER ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, NOTE, THE OBLIGATIONS AND/OR THE COLLATERAL TO OTHER PERSONS, IN EACH CASE ON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS PROVIDED HEREIN. 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.

 

  83

Each party to this Agreement agrees that it will be bound by its own facsimile or other electronic signature and that it accepts the facsimile or other electronic signature of each other party.

If Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates uses in-house counsel for any purpose under any Loan Document for which Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify, as applicable, Agent or any Lender hereunder, Borrower expressly agrees that its Obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate in its sole discretion for the work performed subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 12.7 . Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall pay all Taxes (other than Taxes based upon or measured by Agent or any Lender’s income or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in connection with the issuance of any Note and the filing and/or recording of any documents and/or financing statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything otherwise to the contrary, Borrower shall (x) bear no cost or expense related to any assignment or participation made pursuant to Section 12.2 and (y) share equally with Agent in any costs and expenses related to Section 6.26 .

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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:

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.

  - 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.

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.

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.
