Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The Company entered into a loan agreement and related documents in effect as of February 11, 2011, for a revolving timeshare receivables hypothecation facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Liberty Bank and assembled by Wellington Financial. On February 28, 2011, the Company agreed to the final documentation requirements for advances under the facility. The $60 million facility (the New Facility) provides for an 85% advance on eligible receivables pledged under the facility during a two-year period ending in February 2013, subject to customary terms and conditions. Availability under the New Facility is reduced by amounts currently outstanding to certain syndicate participants under Bluegreens existing Liberty Bank timeshare receivables facility (the Existing Facility). On February 28, 2011, the outstanding amounts on the Existing Facility were approximately $47.5 million; therefore, initial availability under the New Facility was approximately $12.5 million. However, as outstanding amounts on the Existing Facility amortize over time, the New Facility will revolve up to $60 million, subject to eligible collateral and customary terms and conditions. Principal repayments and interest will be paid as cash is collected on the pledged receivables, with the remaining balance due in February 2016.
Indebtedness under the New Facility bears interest at the Prime Rate (as published in the Wall Street Journal) plus 2.25%, subject to a floor of 6.5%.
