Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Fifth Amended and Restated Standard Definitions (the “Standard Definitions”) attached to the Indenture as Annex A and to the extent that the Standard Definitions attached to the Indenture are further amended from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, such amended Standard Definitions shall apply to and be incorporated in this Agreement by reference as though attached hereto.

SECTION 2.    Acquisition of Timeshare Loans.

(a)    Timeshare Loans. On each Funding Date or Transfer Date, as the case may be, in return for the Timeshare Loan Acquisition Price for each Timeshare Loan to be sold on such Funding Date, the Depositor does hereby sell, transfer, assign and grant to the Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof), all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to: (i) each Timeshare Loan listed on the related Borrowing Notice, (ii) the Receivables in respect of such Timeshare Loans due after the related Cut-Off Date, (iii) the related Timeshare Loan Documents, (iv) all Related Security in respect of each such Timeshare Loan, (v) the rights and remedies of the Depositor under the Purchase Agreement, 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 “Conveyed Timeshare Property”). Upon such sale, the ownership of each such Timeshare Loan and all collections allocable to principal and interest thereon due after the related 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 Depositor shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor claim any ownership interest in any Timeshare Loan for any purpose whatsoever other than for consolidated financial and federal and state income tax reporting.

(b)    Delivery of Timeshare Loan Documents. In connection with the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Timeshare Loans hereunder, the Issuer hereby directs the Depositor and the Depositor hereby agrees to deliver or cause to be delivered, at least five Business Days prior to each Funding Date or Transfer Date, as the case may be, to the Custodian, all related Timeshare Loan Files and to the Servicer all related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files.

(c)    Collections. The Depositor shall deposit or cause to be deposited all collections in respect of Timeshare Loans conveyed hereunder that are received by it on or after the related Cut-Off Date in the Collection Account.

(d)    No Further Obligations. Based on the Depositor’s representation and warranty in clause (mm) of Schedule I, 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. It is the intention of the parties hereto that no such obligation or liability is being 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 terms hereof shall constitute a sale by the Depositor to the Issuer and not a loan secured by such 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 Depositor shall be deemed to have Granted and does hereby Grant to the Issuer as of the date hereof a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, the Conveyed Timeshare Property specified in Section 2 hereof and the proceeds thereof, 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 non-usurious rate of interest allowed by the applicable state law or any applicable law of the United States permitting a higher maximum non-usurious 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 Depositor 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 Depositor’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)    With respect to each Funding Date and each Transfer Date, all representations and warranties of the Depositor contained in Section 5(a) hereof shall be true and correct on the related Funding Date or Transfer Date, as the case may be, as if made on such date, and all representations and warranties as to the Timeshare Loans contained in Section 5(b) 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

(d)    On the related Funding Date, the Indenture shall be in full force and effect and no Funding Termination Event shall have occurred and is continuing.

(i)    Due Incorporation; Valid Existence; Good Standing. The Depositor is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; and is duly qualified to 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 Depositor 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.

(ii)    Possession of Licenses, Certificates, Franchises and Permits. The Depositor holds, and at all times during the term of this Agreement will hold, all material licenses, certificates, franchises and permits from all governmental authorities necessary for the conduct of its business, and has received no notice of proceedings relating to the revocation of any such license, certificate, franchise or permit, which singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would materially and adversely affect 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 the Conveyed Timeshare Property.

(iii)    Corporate Authority and Power. The Depositor has, and at all times during the term of this Agreement will have, all requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties, to conduct its business, to execute and deliver this Agreement and all documents and transactions contemplated hereunder and to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder. The Depositor has all requisite corporate power and authority to acquire, own, transfer and convey the Conveyed Timeshare Property to the Issuer.

(iv)    Authorization, Execution and Delivery; Valid and Binding. This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents and instruments required or contemplated hereby to be executed and delivered by the Depositor have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor and, assuming the due execution and delivery by, the other party or parties hereto and thereto, constitute legal, valid and binding agreements enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with their respective terms subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally applicable in the event of the bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of the Depositor and to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability shall be considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. This Agreement constitutes a valid transfer of the Depositor’s interest in the

Conveyed Timeshare Property to the Issuer or the valid creation of a first priority perfected security interest in the Conveyed Timeshare Property in favor of the Issuer.

(v)    No Violation of Law, Rule, Regulation, etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which the Depositor is a party do not and will not (A) violate any of the provisions of the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Depositor, (B) violate any provision of any law, governmental rule or regulation currently in effect applicable to the Depositor or its properties or by which the Depositor or its properties may be bound or affected, including, without limitation, any bulk transfer laws, (C) violate any judgment, decree, writ, injunction, award, determination or order currently in effect applicable to the Depositor or its properties or by which the Depositor or its properties are bound or affected, (D) conflict with, or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the provisions of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it is bound or (E) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument.

(vi)    Governmental Consent. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, and no filing with or notice to, any court or other Governmental Authority in respect of the Depositor is required which has not been obtained in connection with the authorization, execution, delivery or performance by the Depositor of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or under the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer of the Conveyed Timeshare Property and the creation of the security interest of the Issuer therein pursuant to Section 3 hereof.

(vii)    Defaults. The Depositor is not in default under any material agreement, contract, instrument or indenture to which the Depositor is a party or by which it or its properties is or are bound, or with respect to any order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body, in each case, which would have a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated hereunder or on the business, operations, financial condition or assets of the Depositor, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default with respect to any such agreement, contract, instrument or indenture, or with respect to any such order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body.

(viii)    No Material Adverse Effect. Since the end of Diamond Resorts Corporation’s most recent, audited fiscal year, there has been no Material Adverse Effect with respect to any Diamond Resorts Entity.

Transfer Date, as applicable, the Depositor will not engage in any business or transaction for which any property remaining with the Depositor would constitute an unreasonably small amount of capital.

(x)    Pending Litigation or Other Proceedings. There is no pending or, to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against or affecting the Depositor which, if decided adversely, would materially and adversely affect (A) the condition (financial or otherwise), business or operations of the Depositor, (B) the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, (C) any of the Conveyed Timeshare Property or title of the Depositor to any of the Conveyed Timeshare Property, or (D) 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 the Right-to-Use Agreements and related Right-to-Use Interests, and the rights of the Obligors to use and occupy the related Timeshare Interest.

(xi)    Information. No document, certificate or report furnished or required to be furnished by or on behalf of the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement, in its capacity as the Depositor, 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 Depositor 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 Depositor, or which may impair the ability of the Depositor 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 Depositor pursuant hereto or thereto specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

to by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates with respect to any plan year beginning prior to January 1, 2011, and, to the Depositor’s knowledge, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that may result in an accumulated funding deficiency as of the last day of any plan year beginning prior to January 1, 2011; (ii) no unpaid “minimum required contribution” (as such term is defined under ERISA and the Code), whether or not such funding deficiency is waived, exists with respect to any employee pension benefit plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates with respect to any plan year beginning after December 31, 2010, and, to the Depositor’s knowledge, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that may result in an unpaid minimum required contribution as of the last day of the plan year beginning after December 31, 2010 of any such plan; (iii) the Depositor and each of its Affiliates has made all contributions required under each multiemployer plan (as such term is defined under ERISA) to which the Depositor or any of its Affiliates contributes or in which the Depositor or any of its Affiliates participates (a “Depositor Multiemployer Plan”); and (iv) neither the Depositor nor any of its Affiliates has withdrawn from any Depositor Multiemployer Plan with respect to which there is any outstanding liability and, to the Depositor’s knowledge, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that presents a risk of the occurrence of any withdrawal from, or the partition, termination, reorganization or insolvency of, any Depositor Multiemployer Plan that could result in any liability to the Depositor.

(xiv)    Taxes. The Depositor has filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) which it reasonably believes are required to be filed and has paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges due from the Depositor or is contesting any such tax, assessment or other governmental charge in good faith through appropriate proceedings or such failure will not have a material adverse effect on the rights and interests of the Issuer. The Depositor knows of no basis for any material additional tax assessment for any fiscal year for which adequate reserves have not been established. The Depositor intends to pay all such taxes, assessments and governmental charges when due.

(xv)    Place of Business. The place of business where the Servicer on behalf of the Depositor keeps its records concerning the Timeshare Loans will be 10600 West Charleston Boulevard, Las Vegas, Nevada 89135 (or such other place specified by the Depositor by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee).

(xvi)    Securities Laws. The Depositor is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No portion of the Timeshare Loan Acquisition Price for each of the Timeshare Loans will be used by

the Depositor to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 13 or Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(xvii)    Ownership of the Depositor. One hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding sole membership interest of the Depositor is directly owned (both beneficially and of record) by Diamond Resorts Finance Holding Company, a Delaware corporation. 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 Depositor.

(xviii)    Representations and Warranties Regarding Security Interest and Loan Files.

(b)    The Depositor hereby: (i) represents and warrants that immediately prior to the transfer of any Timeshare Loan to the Issuer, the Depositor 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 certain limited 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, the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Administrative Agent with respect to each Timeshare Loan and certain Resorts as of the Amendment Closing Date, each Funding Date and each Transfer Date (with respect to the Timeshare Loans and the Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans transferred on such Funding Date or Transfer Date), 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 Conveyed Timeshare Property by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and shall continue until the Notes are

paid in full or otherwise released or discharged. The Depositor 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 Depositor agrees that, upon any such assignment, the Indenture Trustee may enforce directly, without joinder of the Issuer (but subject to any defense that the Depositor may have under this Agreement) all rights and remedies hereunder.

(d)    With respect to any representations and warranties contained in Section 5(a) and Section 5(b) hereof, which are made to the Depositor’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 Depositor’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 Repurchase and Substitution for Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Upon the receipt of notice by the Depositor 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 Depositor shall within 30 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; provided, that to the extent an Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Depositor shall use its best efforts to repurchase each Timeshare Loan instead of replacing such Timeshare Loan.

(b)    Optional Repurchase and Substitution of 60-Day Plus Delinquent Loans. On any date, DFHC shall have the option, but not the obligation, to either: (i) repurchase a 60-Day Plus Delinquent Loan from the Issuer for a price equal to the Repurchase Price therefor, or (ii) substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans for such 60-Day Plus Delinquent 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 60-Day Plus Delinquent Loans that may be repurchased and substituted pursuant to Section 6(b) at the option of DFHC shall be limited on any date to 15% and 20%, respectively, of the highest aggregate Loan Balance of all Timeshare Loans owned by the Issuer since the Amendment Closing Date, less the aggregate of the Cut-Off Date Loan Balances of all 60-Day Plus Delinquent Loans previously repurchased or substituted, as applicable, pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof since the Amendment Closing Date.

(d)    Payment of Repurchase Prices and Substitution Shortfall Amounts. The Issuer hereby directs and the Depositor and DFHC hereby agree 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 DFHC and the Depositor hereby agree, on each date on which a Timeshare Loan has been repurchased, purchased or substituted, to provide the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee with a revised Schedule of Timeshare Loans reflecting the removal and/or substitution of such Timeshare Loans and subjecting any Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans to the provisions of this Agreement.

(f)    Officer’s Certificate for Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loans. The Depositor and DFHC, as applicable, 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, purchase 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 Depositor or its designee, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Depositor 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 Administrative Agent and the Servicer receive a Trust Receipt for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan. The Issuer shall cause the Custodian to release the related Timeshare Loan Files to the Depositor or its designee and the Servicer to release the related Timeshare Loan Servicing Files to the Depositor 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 Administrative Agent and the Servicer receive a Trust Receipt for such Qualified Substitute Timeshare Loan.

(h)    Sole Remedy. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Depositor to repurchase or substitute Timeshare Loans contained in Section 6(a) hereof and

the obligation of the Depositor 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 Depositor. The Depositor hereby covenants and agrees with the Issuer as follows:

(a)    The Depositor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders applicable to it and its business and properties.

(b)    The Depositor shall preserve and maintain its existence (corporate or otherwise), rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its organization and, if applicable, all necessary sales finance company licenses.

(d)    The Depositor shall respond to any inquiries with respect to ownership of a Timeshare Loan by stating that such Timeshare Loan has been sold to the Issuer and that the Issuer is the owner of such Timeshare Loan and that such Timeshare Loan has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders.

(e)    On or prior to the Amendment Closing Date, the Depositor shall file or cause to be filed, at its own expense, financing statements in favor of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders with respect to the Conveyed Timeshare Property meeting the requirements of state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary or appropriate to perfect the acquisition of the Conveyed Timeshare Property by the Issuer from the Depositor, and shall deliver file-stamped copies of such financing statements to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders.

(f)    The Depositor agrees from time to time, at its expense, promptly to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further actions, that may be necessary, or that the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the sale of the Timeshare Loans, or to enable the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder or under any Timeshare Loan including but not limited to powers of attorney, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and assignments of Mortgage and Right-to-Use Agreements.

SECTION 14.    Severability. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Governmental Authority determines that the Issuer may not purchase or acquire the Conveyed Timeshare Property, the transactions evidenced hereby shall constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, notwithstanding the otherwise applicable intent

of the parties hereto, and the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Issuer as of the date hereof, a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, the Conveyed Timeshare Property and the related property as described in Section 2 hereof.

The Developer was not the developer of the Poipu Point condominium (completed in 1993); the Ka’anapali Beach Vacation Resort (completed in 1988); or The Villas at Polo Towers (completed in 2006). As a result, the Association does not hold any warranties, express or implied, on the Collection accommodations or the component sites. The resort interests were conveyed to the Trustee “as is.

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 are any grounds to seek relief against the manufacturer of said space frame. Settlement in the amount of $2.465MM has been reached with the three defendants and the case has been dismissed.

Water intrusion issues have also been discovered around the resort, including the sealant around the entire property, the driveway, porte-cochere and parking structure. The extent of the damage, recommendations for repair and evaluation of financial responsibility are currently being considered.

The exterior walls of all buildings in The Point at Poipu condominium have experienced damage due to water intrusion. The Board of Directors of the condominium association for The Point at Poipu (“Poipu Condominium Board”) had a study performed to determine the scope and extent of the damage and the cost of any necessary repair work. Based on the results of such study, the Poipu Condominium Board has concluded to initiate a water intrusion assessment to pay for the repair work. The Developer has determined that it will pay for such assessments relative to certain Points purchased by owners in 2011, including any Points purchased on and subsequent to the last Revision Date on page 1 of the Hawaii Disclosure Statement purchasers receive, however, the Developer is not assuming responsibility for the payment of any other assessment made to Collection Members in the future that are unrelated to the repair of such water intrusion damage at The Point at Poipu condominium. Construction work to repair the damage has commenced in 2012, with an estimated completion date of May 31, 2017. These dates and construction timeframe estimates are approximate only and could change in the future due to unforeseen events, inclement weather, and other events that are beyond the control of the Poipu Condominium Board. 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.

Numerous instances of improper installation or construction techniques by the contractor have been 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 in 2015. The use of the affected units may be temporarily interrupted during the course of making the repairs.
