Kaplan, Strangis and Kaplan, P.A. 90 South Seventh Street, Suite 5500 Minneapolis, MN 55402 LEASEHOLD MORTGAGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT TO SECURE GUARANTY THIS LEASEHOLD MORTGAGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT TO SECURE GUARANTY (the "Mortgage") is made this 12th day of March, 2002, between __________________________ ("Mortgagor"), whose address is 200 East Broward Blvd, Suite 920, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida 33301, and AGHI FINANCE CO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Mortgagee") whose address is 2575 Vista del Mar Drive, Ventura, CA 93001. RECITALS: Holiday RV Superstores, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower") entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement in favor of Mortgagee, dated March 12, 2002 (the "Loan Agreement"), related to indebtedness in the current principal amount of $1,600,000 (the "Loan"), which, together with interest and other charges due thereon, the final payment of which, if not sooner called by Mortgagee, is due as provided in the Loan Agreement. (The Loan Agreement and all other documents executed in connection with the Loan Agreement, including, but not limited to, the promissory note, guarantees, other mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, financing statements, assignments of rents, and guaranties, shall be collectively referred to as the "Loan Documents"). As a condition of Mortgagee's willingness to enter into the Loan Agreement and making the Loan, Mortgagee has required that Mortgagor executed and deliver a Guaranty of even date (the "Guaranty"). NOW, THEREFORE, to secure the performance by Mortgagor of all covenants and conditions of the Guaranty, including the payment of interest, principal, fees, other charges and expenses, and all existing or future guaranties, or other indebtedness owed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee, including, without limitation, all future advances, obligatory or otherwise, notwithstanding that such indebtedness is secured by other mortgages, and including all expenses or obligations incurred by Mortgagee pursuant to any existing or future mortgage, loan or security agreement (collectively, the "Obligations"), and in order to charge the properties, interests, and rights hereinafter described with such payment and performance, and for and in consideration of the sum of Ten and 00/100 Dollars ($10.00), Mortgagor does hereby mortgage to Mortgagee and, where applicable, grant a security interest in: I. THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY (A) All of the land in the County of _________, State of ________, described on EXHIBIT A attached hereto and made a part hereof, to have and to hold the same, together with each and every tenement, hereditament, easement, right, power, privilege, immunity, and appurtenance thereunto belonging or in anywise appertaining, and the reversion and reversions, remainder and remainders, and also the estate, right, title, interest, homestead, right of dower, separate estate, property, possession, and claim whatsoever in law as well as in equity of Mortgagor of, in, and to the same in every part and parcel thereof unto Mortgagee in leasehold title pursuant to the lease described on EXHIBIT B attached hereto. The real property described on Exhibit A is commercial property and does not constitute the homestead of any individual. (B) (i) All personal property and fixtures now or hereafter affixed to or located on the property described in Paragraph A hereof which is deemed to be fixtures and a part of the real property under applicable law; (ii) all articles of personal property and all materials delivered to the property described in Paragraph A hereof for use in any way thereof, and owned by Mortgagor; (iii) all contract rights, general intangibles, actions, and rights in action, including, without limitation, all rights to insurance policies and proceeds; (iv) all equipment including, without limitation, parts, accessories, attachments, special tools, additions, and accessions thereto; and (v) all proceeds, products, replacements, additions, substitutions, renewals, and accessions of any of the foregoing items. This Mortgage is a self-operative security agreement with respect to the above described property, but Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver on demand such other security agreements, financing statements, and other instruments as Mortgagee may request in order to perfect its security interest or to impose the lien hereof more specifically upon any of such property. Mortgagee shall have all the rights and remedies, in addition to those specified herein, of a secured party under the _________ Uniform Commercial Code. (C) All rents, issues, profits, revenue, income, accounts, proceeds, and other benefits flowing or derived from the property described in Paragraphs (A) and (B) hereof, provided, however, that permission is hereby given to Mortgagor so long as no default has occurred hereunder, to collect, receive, and use such benefits from the property as they become due and payable, but not in advance thereof. Everything referred to in Paragraphs (A), (B), and (C) hereof, and any additional property hereafter acquired by Mortgagor and subject to the lien of this Mortgage, or any part of these properties, is herein referred to as the "Mortgaged Property." PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this Mortgage secures a maximum of $1,600,000.00 of the Obligations of the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee; and 2 PROVIDED ALWAYS, that if Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee all sums due under the Loan at the time and in the manner stipulated in the Loan Documents, and in all other instruments securing the Loan, and faithfully perform all the covenants and agreements in this Mortgage, and in all other instruments securing the Loan, to be kept, performed, or observed by Mortgagor, then this Mortgage shall cease and be void. II. COVENANTS OF MORTGAGOR 2.1. Compliance with Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall comply with all provisions hereof, of the Loan Agreement, and of the Loan Documents, and will promptly pay to Mortgagee the principal with interest thereon, and all other sums required to be paid by Mortgagor under the Loan and the Loan Documents. 2.2. Payment of Taxes and Liens. Mortgagor shall pay all taxes, assessments, liens, levies, liabilities, obligations, and encumbrances of every nature and kind whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, or assessed on the Mortgaged Property, this Mortgage, or the indebtedness secured hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Mortgagor shall pay all obligations secured by Mortgages having priority hereto, and an event of default upon such prior encumbrances shall be a default hereunder. All such payments shall be made when due and payable before they become delinquent and before any interest attaches or any penalty is incurred; provided, however, that the Mortgagor may withhold tax payments which are contested in good faith by appropriate judicial or administrative proceedings for so long as such tax delinquency does not adversely affect the mortgage or lien hereunder. Insofar as any such lien or encumbrance is of record, the same shall be promptly satisfied or released and evidence of such satisfaction or release shall be given to Mortgagee. 2.3. Insurance. Mortgagor shall keep the improvements now existing or hereafter erected on the Mortgaged Property and all parts of the Mortgaged Property insured as may be required from time to time by Mortgagee against loss by fire or other casualty and contingency in such amounts and for such periods as may be required by Mortgagee, and to pay promptly, when due, all premiums for such insurance. All such insurance shall be carried with companies approved by Mortgagee and the policy and renewals thereof shall be held by Mortgagee and have attached thereto loss payable clauses in favor of and in form acceptable to Mortgagee. In the event of loss, Mortgagor shall give immediate notice by mail to Mortgagee and Mortgagee may make proof of loss if not made promptly by Mortgagor, and each insurance company concerned is hereby authorized and directed to make payments for such loss directly to Mortgagee instead of to Mortgagor, or to Mortgagor and Mortgagee jointly, and the insurance proceeds or any part thereof may be applied by Mortgagee, at its option, after deducting therefrom all of its expenses, including, without limitation, attorney's fees and costs, either to reduction of the indebtedness hereby secured or to the restoration or repair of the property damaged. In the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or other transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property in extinguishment of the indebtedness secured hereby, all right, title, and interest of Mortgagor in and to any insurance policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee. Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee a certificate or certificates of insurance evidencing the foregoing coverages in force and effect, naming Mortgagee an additional loss payee and 3 providing the insurer shall give Mortgagee not less than 30 days notice of cancellation, termination, or non-renewal. 2.4. Condemnation. If all or any material part of the Mortgaged Property shall be damaged or taken through condemnation (which term when used herein shall include any damage or taking by any governmental authority or any other authority authorized by the laws of the State of ________ or the United States of America to so damage or take, and any transfer by private sale in lieu thereof), either temporarily or permanently, then the maximum outstanding indebtedness and other sums secured hereby shall, at the option of Mortgagee, become immediately due and payable. Mortgagee is hereby authorized, at its option, to commence, appear in, and prosecute, in its own or Mortgagor's name, any action, or proceeding relating to any condemnation, and to settle or compromise any claim in connection therewith. All such compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action, and proceeds, and any other payments or relief, and the rights thereto, are hereby assigned by Mortgagor to Mortgagee, who, after deducting therefrom any amounts due upon senior encumbrances, and all of its expenses, including attorney's fees and costs, may release any monies so received by it for the benefit of Mortgagor, without affecting the lien of this Mortgage or may apply the same, in such manner as Mortgagee shall determine, to the reduction of the sums secured hereby, this Mortgage, or any other instruments securing the Loan. Any balance of such monies then remaining shall be paid to Mortgagor. Mortgagor agrees to execute such further assignments of any compensations, awards, damages, claims, rights of action, and proceeds as Mortgagee may require. For the purposes of this paragraph, a "material part" shall mean such portion of the Mortgaged Property that the removal of which would render it impracticable to be used for its intended purpose. 2.5. Care of Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor shall not remove or demolish any building or other property forming a part of the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, nor permit, commit, or suffer any waste, impairment, or deterioration of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, and shall keep the same and the improvements thereof in good condition and repair. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee in writing within five (5) days of any injury, damage, or impairment of or occurring on the Mortgaged Property including, without limitation, serious injury or loss by death or otherwise occurring on the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee may, at Mortgagee's discretion, have the Mortgaged Property inspected at the time. 2.6. Mortgagee's Right to Make Certain Payments. In the event Mortgagor fails to observe, comply with or perform any of the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, or any amendments and modifications thereof, or fails to pay and/or discharge the taxes, assessments, liens, levies, liabilities, obligations, and encumbrances, or fails to keep the Mortgaged Property insured or to deliver the policies, premiums paid, or fails to repair the Mortgaged Property as herein agreed, Mortgagee is hereby authorized, at its election, to pay and/or discharge the taxes, assessments, liens, levies, liabilities, obligations, and encumbrances, or any part thereof, without being required to investigate the validity and/or necessity thereof, and without Mortgagee waiving or affecting any option, lien, equity, or right under or by virtue of this Mortgage. The full amount of each and every such payment made by Mortgagee shall be due and payable by Mortgagor within five (5) days of written demand and shall bear interest 4 from the date thereof until paid at the Default Rate, as hereinafter defined, and together with such interest, shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring Mortgagee to advance or expend monies for any of the purposes mentioned in this Paragraph. 2.7. Payment of Expenses. Mortgagor shall pay all of the costs, charges, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and costs, disbursements, and costs of abstracts of title, incurred or paid at any time by Mortgagee because and/or in the event of the failure on the part of Mortgagor promptly and fully to perform, comply with, and abide by each and every stipulation, agreement, condition, and covenant of the Loan Documents. Such costs, charges, and expenses shall be immediately due and payable, without notice, demand, attempt to collect, or suit pending. The full amount of each and every payment shall bear interest from the date thereof until paid at the Default Rate, as hereinafter defined. All such costs, charges and expenses so incurred or paid, together with such interest, shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage. 2.8. No Transfer. Mortgagor covenants and agrees not to sell, convey, transfer, lease, or further encumber any interest in or any part of the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, and any such sale, conveyance, transfer, lease, or encumbrance made without Mortgagee's prior written consent shall be null and void. If any person should obtain an interest in all or any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the execution or enforcement of any lien, security interest, or other right, directly or indirectly, whether superior, equal or subordinate to this Mortgage or the lien hereof, such event shall be deemed to be a transfer by Mortgagor and a default hereunder. 2.9. After Acquired Property. The lien of this Mortgage will automatically attach, without further act, to all after acquired property, whether real or personal, located in or on, or attached to, or used or intended to be used in connection with or with the operation of the Mortgaged Property. 2.10. Additional Documents. At any time and from time to time, upon Mortgagee's request, Mortgagor shall make, execute, and deliver or cause to be made, executed and delivered to Mortgagee and, where appropriate, shall cause to be recorded or filed and from time to time thereafter to be rerecorded or refiled at such time and in such offices and places as shall be deemed desirable by Mortgagee any and all such further mortgages, instruments of further assurance, certificates, and other documents as Mortgagee may consider necessary or desirable in order to effectuate, complete, enlarge, or perfect, or to continue and preserve the obligations of Mortgagor under the Loan Documents, and the lien of this Mortgage upon all of the Mortgaged Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Mortgagor. Upon failure by Mortgagor to do so, Mortgagee may make, execute, record, file, rerecord, refile any and all such mortgages, instruments, certificates, and documents for and in the name of Mortgagor, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor to do so. 5 III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT Any one of the following shall constitute an Event of Default: (a) Failure by Mortgagor to pay to Lender any amount when due under the Loan Documents, including but not limited to the payment of principal or interest due under the Loan, and any fees, other charges or expenses payable under the Loan Agreement.

Non-Exclusive Remedies. No right, power, or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee by the Loan Documents, is exclusive of any other right, power or remedy of Mortgagee, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power or remedy given hereunder, under the Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, or by statute.
