SECTION 1.Definitions; Interpretation. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in "Standard Definitions" attached hereto as Annex A.
SECTION 2. Acquisition of Timeshare Loans.
(a) Initial Timeshare Loans. On the Closing Date, in return for the Timeshare Loan Acquisition Price for each of the Initial Timeshare Loans, the Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign and grant to the Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), any and all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to (i) the Initial Timeshare Loans listed on the Schedule of Timeshare Loans, (ii) the Receivables in respect of the Initial Timeshare Loans due on and after the Initial Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare Loan Files, (iv) all Related Security in respect of the Initial Timeshare Loans, (v) all rights and remedies of the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and (vi) all income, payments, proceeds and other benefits and rights related to any of the foregoing (the property described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) being referred to as the "Initial Conveyed Timeshare Property"). Upon such sale, the ownership of each Initial Timeshare Loan and all collections allocable to principal and interest thereon since
1
KL2 2906190.5
the Initial Cut-Off Date and all other property interests or rights conveyed pursuant to and referenced in this Section 2(a) shall immediately vest in the Issuer, its successors and assigns. The Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor claim any ownership interest in any Initial Timeshare Loan for any purpose whatsoever other than for consolidated financial and federal and state income tax reporting.
(b) Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans. On the related Transfer Date, the Seller does hereby transfer, assign, sell and grant to the Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), any and all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to (i) each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan conveyed to the Issuer on such Transfer Date, (ii) the Receivables in respect of such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans due on and after the related Substitution Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare Loan Files, (iv) all Related Security in respect of such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans, (v) all rights and remedies of the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and (vi) all income, payments, proceeds and other benefits and rights related to any of the foregoing (the property described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) , the "Substitute Conveyed Timeshare Property" and together with the Initial Conveyed Timeshare Property, the “Conveyed Timeshare Property”). Upon such sale, the ownership of each Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan and all collections allocable to principal and interest thereon since the related Substitution Cut-Off Date and all other property interests or rights conveyed pursuant to and referenced in this Section 2(b) shall immediately vest in the Issuer, its successors and assigns. The Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor claim any ownership interest in any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan for any purpose whatsoever other than consolidated financial and federal and state income tax reporting. The Seller agrees that such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Delivery of Timeshare Loan Files. In connection with the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of any Timeshare Loans hereunder, the Issuer hereby directs the Seller and the Seller hereby agrees to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian all related Timeshare Loan Files and to the Servicer all related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files.
(d) Collections. The Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited all collections that are received by it in respect of the Timeshare Loans conveyed hereunder on and after the related Cut-Off Date in the Collection Account.
(e) Limitation of Liability. Neither the Issuer nor any subsequent assignee of the Issuer shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Timeshare Loan nor shall the Issuer or any subsequent assignee have any liability to any Obligor in respect of any Timeshare Loan. No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the Issuer or any subsequent assignee herewith and any such obligation or liability is hereby expressly disclaimed.
SECTION 3. Intended Characterization; Grant of Security Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each transfer of Timeshare Loans to be made pursuant to the
2
KL2 2906190.5
terms hereof shall constitute a sale by the Seller to the Issuer and not a loan secured by the Timeshare Loans. In the event, however, that a court of competent jurisdiction were to hold that any such transfer constitutes a loan and not a sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (i) the Seller shall be deemed to have Granted to the Issuer as of the date hereof a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Conveyed Timeshare Property and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. In the event of the characterization of any such transfer as a loan, the amount of interest payable or paid with respect to such loan under the terms of this Agreement shall be limited to an amount which shall not exceed the maximum nonusurious rate of interest allowed by the applicable state law or any applicable law of the United States permitting a higher maximum nonusurious rate that preempts such applicable state law, which could lawfully be contracted for, charged or received (the "Highest Lawful Rate"). In the event any payment of interest on any such loan exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the parties hereto stipulate that (a) to the extent possible given the term of such loan, such excess amount previously paid or to be paid with respect to such loan be applied to reduce the principal balance of such loan, and the provisions thereof immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder and (b) to the extent that the reduction of the principal balance of, and the amounts collectible under, such loan and the reformation of the provisions thereof described in the immediately preceding clause (a) is not possible given the term of such loan, such excess amount will be deemed to have been paid with respect to such loan as a result of an error and upon discovery of such error or upon notice thereof by any party hereto such amount shall be refunded by the recipient thereof.
The characterization of the Seller as "debtor" and the Issuer as "secured party" in any financing statement required hereunder is solely for protective purposes and shall in no way be construed as being contrary to the intent of the parties that this transaction be treated as a sale to the Issuer of the Seller’s entire right, title and interest in and to the Conveyed Timeshare Property.
SECTION 4. Conditions Precedent to Acquisition of Timeshare Loans. The obligations of the Issuer to purchase any Timeshare Loans hereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:
(a) All representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 5 hereof and all information provided in the Schedule of Timeshare Loans shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and the Seller shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Initial Purchaser an Officer’s Certificate to such effect.
(b) With respect to each Transfer Date, all representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 5(a) hereof shall be true and correct on the related Transfer Date, as if made on such date, and all representations and warranties as to the Timeshare Loans contained in Section 5(b) hereof and all information provided in the Schedule of Timeshare Loans in respect of the Timeshare Loans (including the Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans conveyed on such Transfer Date) shall be true and correct on the related Transfer Date.

Each transfer, assignment, sale and grant made on a Transfer Date shall be evidenced by a transfer certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto.
(e) On or before the Closing Date, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee shall have entered into the Indenture.

(g) [Reserved].
(h) With respect to the substitution of a Timeshare Loan, each of the conditions herein and in the Indenture for substitution of Timeshare Loans shall have been satisfied including, without limitation, the satisfaction of each of the criteria set forth in the definition of "Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan" and each of the conditions herein and in the Indenture for substitution of Timeshare Loans shall have been satisfied.

4
KL2 2906190.5
do business as a foreign company and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where the character of its property, the nature of its business or the performance of its obligations under this Agreement makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified will not have a material adverse effect on the business of the Seller or its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder or the validity or enforceability of any portion of the Conveyed Timeshare Property.

Except for such matters, if any, as are disclosed in the Offering Circular dated July 23, 2015, there is no pending or, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against or affecting the Seller which, if decided adversely, would materially and adversely affect (i) the condition (financial or otherwise), business or operations of the Seller, (ii) the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, (iii) any of the Conveyed Timeshare Property or title of the Seller to any Conveyed Timeshare Property, or (iv) the Issuer’s or the Indenture Trustee's ability to foreclose or otherwise enforce its rights with respect to any of the Conveyed Timeshare Property, including without limitation the right to revoke or otherwise terminate Points Purchase Contracts and the rights of the Obligors to use and occupy the related Timeshare Property.
(xi) Information. No document, certificate or report furnished or required to be furnished by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant to this Agreement, in its capacity as the Seller, contains or will contain when furnished any untrue statement of a material fact or fails, or will fail, to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading. There are no facts known to the Seller which, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect, or which (aside from general economic trends) may reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect in the future, the financial condition or assets or business of the Seller, or which may impair the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, which have not been disclosed herein or therein or in the certificates and other documents furnished to the Issuer by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant hereto or thereto specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

The Seller intends to pay all such taxes, assessments and governmental charges when due.

Such membership interest is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire membership interests from the Seller.
(xviii) Representations and Warranties Regarding Security Interest and Loan Files.
(A) In the event of the characterization of the transfers under this Agreement as a loan, the grant under Section 3 hereof creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Conveyed Timeshare Property in favor of the Issuer, which security interest is prior to all other Liens arising under the UCC, and is enforceable as such against creditors of the Seller, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affected creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).
(B) The Timeshare Loans and the documents evidencing such Timeshare Loans constitute either “accounts”, “chattel paper”, “instruments” or “general intangibles” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.
(C) The Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the Conveyed Timeshare Property free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.
(D) The Seller has caused or will have caused, within ten days of the Closing Date, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Conveyed Timeshare Property granted to the Issuer and by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee.

(F) Other than as contemplated by this Agreement and the Indenture, the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Conveyed Timeshare Property. The Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing
9
KL2 2906190.5
statements against the Seller that include a description of collateral covering any Conveyed Timeshare Property other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee hereunder, under the Indenture or that has been terminated.
(G) All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in connection herewith describing the Conveyed Timeshare Property contain a statement to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured Party.”
(H) None of the Obligor Notes that constitute or evidence any Conveyed Timeshare Property has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than to the Issuer and by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee.
The foregoing representations and warranties in Section 5(a)(xviii) shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be waived or amended until the Notes are paid in full or otherwise released or discharged.
(b) The Seller hereby: (i) represents and warrants that immediately prior to the transfer of any Timeshare Loan to the Issuer, the Seller had full legal and equitable title to such Timeshare Loan, free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, and (ii) makes the representations and warranties contained in Schedule I hereto with respect to each Timeshare Loan, and the representations and warranties contained in Schedule II hereto with respect to the Resorts, such representations and warranties in both clauses (i) and (ii) for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders with respect to each Timeshare Loan and the Resorts as of the Closing Date (with respect to the Initial Timeshare Loans) and each Transfer Date (with respect to the Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans), as applicable.
(c) It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of any Conveyed Timeshare Property to the Issuer and any assignment of such Timeshare Loan by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and shall continue (i) so long as any such Timeshare Loan shall remain outstanding or (ii) until such time as such Timeshare Loan is repurchased or a Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan is provided pursuant to Section 6 hereof. The Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that the Issuer intends to assign all of its right, title and interest in and to the Conveyed Timeshare Property and its rights and remedies under this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Seller agrees that, upon any such assignment, the Indenture Trustee may enforce directly, without joinder of the Issuer (but subject to any defense that the Seller may have under this Agreement) all rights and remedies hereunder.
10
KL2 2906190.5
(d) With respect to any representations and warranties contained in Section 5(a) and Section 5(b) hereof which are made to the Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered that any representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of a Timeshare Loan or the interests of the Issuer or any assignee thereof, then notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge of the accuracy of such representation and warranty at the time such representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of such representation or warranty for purposes of the repurchase or substitution obligations described herein.
SECTION 6. Repurchases and Substitutions.
(a) Mandatory Repurchases and Substitutions for Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Upon the receipt of notice by the Seller of a breach of any of the representations and warranties in Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) hereof which materially and adversely affects the value of a Timeshare Loan or the interests of the Issuer or any subsequent assignee of the Issuer (including the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders) therein, the Seller shall within 60 days of such notice, cure in all material respects the circumstance or condition which has caused such representation or warranty to be incorrect or either (i) repurchase such Timeshare Loan at the Repurchase Price, or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for such Timeshare Loan and pay the related Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any.
(b) Optional Repurchases and Substitutions of Timeshare Loans. On any date, the Seller shall have the option, but not the obligation, to either (i) repurchase a Defaulted Timeshare Loan from the Issuer for a price equal to the related Repurchase Price, or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan for a Defaulted Timeshare Loan and pay the related Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any.
(c) Limitation on Optional Repurchases and Substitutions of Timeshare Loans. The aggregate Cut-Off Date Loan Balance of Defaulted Timeshare Loans that may be repurchased and of Defaulted Timeshare Loans that may be substituted pursuant to Section 6(b) shall be limited on any date to 15% and 20%, respectively, of the Aggregate Loan Balance on the Initial Cut-Off Date less the sum of the Loan Balances of all Defaulted Timeshare Loans (as of the date they became Defaulted Timeshare Loans) previously repurchased or substituted, as applicable, at the Seller’s option.
(d) Payment of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts. The Issuer hereby directs and the Seller hereby agrees to remit all amounts in respect of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts in immediately available funds to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that more than one Timeshare Loan is substituted pursuant to Sections 6(a) or (b) hereof on any Transfer Date, the Substitution Shortfall Amounts and the Loan Balances of Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans shall be calculated on an aggregate basis for all substitutions made on such Transfer Date.
(e) Schedule of Timeshare Loans. The Issuer hereby directs, and the Seller hereby agrees, on each date on which a Timeshare Loan has been repurchased or
11
KL2 2906190.5
substituted, to provide the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee with a revised Schedule of Timeshare Loans reflecting the removal of such Timeshare Loans and subjecting any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans to the provisions of this Agreement.

The Seller shall, on each Transfer Date, certify in writing to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee that each new Timeshare Loan meets all the criteria of the definition of "Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan" and that (i) the Timeshare Loan Files for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans have been delivered to the Custodian and (ii) the Timeshare Loan Servicing Files for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans have been delivered to the Servicer.
(g) Release. In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Timeshare Loans contemplated by this Section 6, upon satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Section 6, the Issuer shall execute and deliver (or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver) such releases and instruments of transfer or assignment presented to it by the Seller or its designee, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee the legal and beneficial ownership of such Timeshare Loans; provided, however, that with respect to any release of a Timeshare Loan that is substituted by a Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan, the Issuer shall not execute and deliver or cause the execution and delivery of such releases and instruments of transfer or assignment until the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Servicer have received a Trust Receipt for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan. The Issuer shall cause the Custodian to release the related Timeshare Loan Files to the Seller or its designee and the Servicer to release the related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the Seller or its designee; provided, however, that with respect to any Timeshare Loan File or Timeshare Loan Servicing File related to a Timeshare Loan that has been substituted by a Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan, the Issuer shall not cause the Custodian and the Servicer to release the related Timeshare Loan File and the Timeshare Loan Servicing File, respectively, until the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Servicer have received a Trust Receipt for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan.
(h) Sole Remedy. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller to repurchase or substitute Timeshare Loans contained in Section 6(a) hereof and the obligation of the Seller to indemnify pursuant to Section 8 hereof shall constitute the sole remedies for the breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) hereof.
SECTION 7. Additional Covenants of the Seller. The Seller hereby covenants and agrees with the Issuer as follows:

Physical Condition
Ka’anapali Beach Resort
A lawsuit alleging a construction defect by the manufacturer of the rooftop space frame was filed by the Company or one or more of its affiliates (the “Developer”) in its pursuit to help the association in the matter of determining whether there were any grounds to seek relief against the manufacturer of said space frame. Settlement in the amount of $2.465 million has been reached with the three defendants and the case has been dismissed. The rooftop space frame replacement commenced in November 2014. The cost is expected to be an approximately $5 million, and the project is expected to last approximately nine months, and is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2015. This estimate is approximate only and could change in the future due to unforeseen events, inclement weather, and other events that are beyond the control of the Developer or the contractor.
The Point at Poipu
All buildings in The Point at Poipu condominium have experienced substantial damage due to water intrusion. The Board of Directors of the Association of Apartment Owners of Poipu Point, (“Poipu Condominium Board”), which includes Directors who are employed by the Developer as well as Directors with no affiliation with the Developer, had extensive analysis performed to determine the scope and extent of the damage and repair needed to fix and prevent future water intrusion. Construction consultants to the Poipu Condominium Board have determined that the repair work in each building could take up to six (6) months to complete. Construction work has been completed or is scheduled to commence as follows:
Building 4 has been repaired;
Building 6 has been repaired;
Building 2 has been repaired;
Building 3 has been repaired;
Building 5 has been repaired;
Building 7 has been repaired;
Building 8 is in progress and scheduled to be completed in late 2015;
Lobby & Poolside Grill is scheduled to begin in early 2016;
Building 9 is scheduled to begin in late November 2015 and to be completed in late May 2016;
Building 1 is scheduled to begin in late May 2016 and to be completed in late November 2016; and
Building 10 & Maintenance Shop are scheduled to begin in late 2016 and to be completed in 2017.
The dates and construction timeframe estimates above are approximate only and could change in the future due to inclement weather and other unforeseen events that are beyond the control of the Poipu Condominium Board or the Developer. In order to conduct the necessary repair work, the Poipu Condominium Board anticipates that only one building at a time will be completely closed off from occupancy. In any event, the Developer will endeavor to work with the Poipu Condominium

Board to see that repair work is conducted in a manner that will not materially impair the operation of the Project and will minimize the impact of the ability of the owners to obtain a reservation.
Lake Tahoe Vacation Resort
Numerous instances of improper installation or construction techniques by the contractor were discovered at Lake Tahoe Vacation Resort. These construction defects have resulted or may result in some structural defects, including water intrusion in the roof and the parking garage and in the bathrooms and exterior walls of a significant number of units at the resort. In order to secure the correction of these defects, the Developer filed an action against the contractor seeking repairs and in some instances replacement of physical components of the resort and correction of the effects of any resulting defects and/or water intrusion. This action settled for $25 million. The repairs are underway at the resort and are anticipated to be completed by the end of 2015. The use of the affected units may be temporarily interrupted during the course of making the repairs.
