PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. (the “Company,” “Silverleaf,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in Texas in 1989. Our principal business is the development, marketing, and operation of “getaway” and “destination” timeshare resorts. As of December 31, 2006, we own seven “getaway resorts” in Texas, Missouri, Illinois, and Georgia (the “Getaway Resorts”). We also own six “destination resorts” in Texas, Missouri, Massachusetts, and Florida (the “Destination Resorts”). In April 2006 we purchased Pinnacle Lodge, a hotel property located near the Winter Park recreational area in Colorado which provides our owners with another destination vacation alternative and gives Silverleaf an entry point into this increasingly popular destination area.

The Getaway Resorts are designed to appeal to vacationers seeking comfortable and affordable accommodations in locations convenient to their residences and are located near major metropolitan areas. Our Getaway Resorts are located close to principal areas where we market our vacation products to facilitate more frequent “short-stay” getaways. We believe such short-stay getaways are growing in popularity as a vacation trend. Our Destination Resorts are located in or near areas with national tourist appeal and offer our customers the opportunity to upgrade into a more upscale resort area as their lifestyles and travel budgets permit. Both the Getaway Resorts and the Destination Resorts (collectively, the “Existing Resorts”) provide a quiet, relaxing vacation environment. We believe our resorts offer our customers an economical alternative to commercial vacation lodging. The average price for an annual one-week vacation ownership interval (“Vacation Interval”) for a two-bedroom unit at the Existing Resorts was $11,681 for 2006 and $11,124 for 2005.

Owners of Silverleaf Vacation Intervals at the Existing Resorts (“Silverleaf Owners”) enjoy certain distinct benefits. These benefits include (i) use of vacant lodging facilities at the Existing Resorts through our “Bonus Time” Program; (ii) year-round access to the Existing Resorts' non-lodging amenities such as fishing, boating, horseback riding, swimming, tennis, or golf on a daily basis for little or no additional charge; and (iii) the right to exchange the use of a Vacation Interval at one of our Existing Resorts for a different time period at a different Existing Resort through our internal exchange program. These benefits are subject to availability and other limitations. Most Silverleaf Owners may also enroll in the Vacation Interval exchange network operated by Resort Condominiums International (“RCI”). Our destination resort in Florida is not under contract with RCI; however it is under contract with Interval International, Inc., a competitor of RCI.

Certain Significant 2006 Events

 
·
In January 2006, we purchased approximately 30 acres of undeveloped land contiguous to our Orlando Breeze resort in Davenport, Polk County, Florida, just outside Orlando, Florida for a purchase price of $4.0 million. Extensive planning and pre-development work must be completed before we can begin developing the property. In addition, development of the property is subject to state and local governmental approvals necessary before commencing timeshare operations on this 30 acre tract.

·
In March 2006, we opened our first showroom-style, off-site sales office. The showroom, located in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex in Irving, Texas, operates under the name “Silverleaf Vacation Store.” It offers potential customers an interactive “virtual” experience of our resorts, including a model unit, photo gallery, and film presentation for each of our 13 current resorts and their related amenities. The 16,500 square-foot showroom cost approximately $1.1 million and employs approximately 30 to 40 on-site sales personnel. We believe this new showroom will generate between $10 million to $12 million in annual sales to new members. The showroom will provide us with a significant sales opportunity by enabling potential customers to experience the quality and service of our resorts in their own community. We expect that new owners who purchase at these showrooms will later participate in our upgrade and additional week sales programs.

 
·
In March 2006, we closed a $100 million revolving senior credit facility through a newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance IV, LLC (“SF-IV”), a Delaware limited liability company. SF-IV was formed for the purpose of issuing a $100 million variable funding note (“VFN”) to UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. (“UBS”). During the fourth quarter of 2006 the facility was amended to increase funding availability from $100 million to $125 million. The funding period was originally scheduled to end in March 2007 but was extended to December 2008, and the interest rate on advances by UBS to SF-IV was reduced from the initial rate of LIBOR plus 1.5% to LIBOR plus 1.25%. The revised facility will mature in December 2010. The VFN is secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV. Proceeds from the sale of customer notes receivable to SF-IV are used to fund normal business operations and for general working capital purposes. The VFN was issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between SF-IV, UBS, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee. We will service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV under the terms of an agreement with the indenture trustee and SF-IV.

 
·
In April 2006, we acquired property located near the Winter Park recreational area in Colorado for a purchase price of approximately $3.6 million. The property is currently being operated as the Pinnacle Lodge, a 64-room hotel. We will continue to operate the property as a hotel as well as a destination for our current timeshare owners.

 
·
In August 2006, we closed a $128 million term securitization transaction through our newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance V, L.P. (“SF-V”), a Delaware limited partnership. SF-V was formed for the purpose of issuing approximately $128.0 million of its Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes Series 2006-A (“Series 2006-A Notes”) in a private offering and sale through UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”). The Series 2006-A Notes were issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between ourselves as servicer, SF-V, as issuer, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee, custodian, backup servicer, and account intermediary. The Series 2006-A Notes were issued in seven classes ranging from Class A through Class G notes with a blended fixed rate of 6.7%. The Class A through Class G notes have been rated Aaa, Aa2, A2, Baa1, Baa2, Baa3, and Ba2 respectively by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and have a final maturity of July 2018.

The Series 2006-A Notes are secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-V by SF-IV and Silverleaf in three separate transactions from August 2006 to November 2006. The original amount of notes receivable purchased by SF-V to secure the Series 2006-A Notes was $155.1 million and the balance of eligible notes receivable pledged as collateral at December 31, 2006 was $132.2 million. The proceeds from the sale of the customer notes receivable to SF-V were primarily used to pay down consolidated indebtedness to senior lenders. All customer notes receivable purchased by SF-V are being acquired without recourse, except in the case of breaches of customary representations and warranties made in connection with the sale of the notes. We will continue to service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-V under the terms of the indenture and will receive a fee for our services.

Certain Significant Events Subsequent to 2006

 
·
We entered into a consolidated, amended and restated loan and security agreement (the “Agreement”) with Textron Financial Corporation effective February 21, 2007. Our current receivables and inventory financing arrangements were consolidated into one facility, with a reduction in the interest rate on the “receivables component” from Prime Rate plus 1% to the Prime Rate. The interest rate on advances under the “acquisition component” and the “inventory component” of the consolidated debt are now Prime Rate plus 1%. The interest rates charged under our prior inventory loan agreements with Textron were the Prime Rate plus 3% and LIBOR plus 3.25%. The funding period has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010. The receivables component matures on January 31, 2013, and the acquisition and inventory component each mature on January 31, 2012. The new terms of the agreement will provide us with additional liquidity to acquire additional developed or undeveloped properties.

·
We listed our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”), under the symbol “SVLF”, effective as of the opening of the market on February 28, 2007. As a result, trading in Silverleaf common stock ceased on the American Stock Exchange effective at the closing of the markets on February 27, 2007.
 
Operations

Our primary business is marketing and selling Vacation Intervals from our inventory to individual consumers. Our principal activities in this regard include:

·
acquiring and developing timeshare resorts;
 
·
marketing and selling one-week annual and biennial Vacation Intervals to prospective first-time owners;
 
·
marketing and selling upgraded and additional Vacation Intervals to existing Silverleaf Owners;
 
·
financing the purchase of Vacation Intervals; and
 
·
managing timeshare resorts.

We have in-house capabilities which enable us to coordinate all aspects of development and expansion of the Existing Resorts and the potential development of any future resorts, including site selection, design, and construction pursuant to standardized plans and specifications.

We perform substantial marketing and sales functions internally. We have made significant investments in operating technology, including telemarketing and computer systems and proprietary software applications. We identify potential purchasers through internally developed marketing techniques and through cooperative arrangements with outside vendors. We sell Vacation Intervals predominately through on-site sales offices located at certain of our resorts, which are located near major metropolitan areas. This practice provides us an alternative to marketing costs of subsidized airfare or lodging, which are typically associated with the timeshare industry. In 2006, we began marketing and sales activity at our first off-site sales center, which is located in the Dallas / Ft. Worth metroplex.

As part of the Vacation Interval sales process, we offer potential purchasers financing of up to 90% of the purchase price over a seven-year to ten-year period. We have historically financed our operations by borrowing from third-party lending institutions at an advance rate of 75% to 80% of eligible customer receivables. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, we had a portfolio of approximately 36,104 and 30,293 customer promissory notes, respectively, totaling approximately $297.4 million and $230.5 million, respectively, with an average yield of 15.7% and 15.3% per annum, respectively, which compares favorably to our weighted average cost of borrowings of 7.9% per annum at December 31, 2006. We cease recognition of interest income when collection is no longer deemed probable. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, approximately $4.7 million and $3.4 million in principal, or 1.6% and 1.5%, respectively, of our loans to Silverleaf Owners were 61 to 120 days past due. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, no timeshare loans receivable were over 120 days past due. We continue collection efforts with regard to all timeshare notes receivable from customers until all collection techniques that we utilize have been exhausted. We provide for uncollectible notes by reserving an estimated amount that our management believes is sufficient to cover anticipated losses from customer defaults.

Each timeshare resort has a timeshare owners' association (a “Club”). At December 31, 2006, each Club (other than the club at Orlando Breeze) operates through a centralized organization to manage its respective resort on a collective basis. This centralized organization is Silverleaf Club, a Texas not-for-profit corporation. Silverleaf Club is under contract with each Club for each of the Existing Resorts (with the exception of Orlando Breeze) to operate and manage their resort. In turn, we have a contract (“Management Agreement”) with Silverleaf Club, under which we perform the supervisory and management functions of the resorts on a collective basis. All costs of operating the timeshare resorts, including management fees payable to us under the Management Agreement, are to be covered by monthly dues paid by the timeshare owners to their respective Clubs as well as income generated by the operation of certain amenities at the timeshare resorts.

Orlando Breeze has its own club (“Orlando Breeze Resort Club”), which is operated independently of Silverleaf Club. We also provide certain supervisory and management functions for Orlando Breeze Resort Club under the terms of a written agreement.

Marketing and Sales

Marketing is the process by which we attract potential customers to visit and tour an Existing Resort or attend a sales presentation. Sales is the process by which we seek to sell a Vacation Interval to a potential customer once he arrives for a tour at an Existing Resort or attends a sales presentation.

Marketing. Our in-house marketing staff creates databases of new prospects, which are principally developed through cooperative arrangements with outside vendors to identify prospects that meet our marketing criteria. Using our automated dialing and bulk mailing equipment, in-house marketing specialists conduct coordinated telemarketing and direct mail procedures which invite prospects to tour one of our resorts and receive an incentive, such as a free gift, without regard to whether or not an interval is purchased.

Sales. We sell our Vacation Intervals primarily through on-site salespersons at certain Existing Resorts. Upon arrival at an Existing Resort for a scheduled tour, the prospect is met by a member of our sales force who leads the prospect on a 90-minute tour of the resort and its amenities. At the conclusion of the tour, the sales representative explains the benefits and costs of becoming a Silverleaf Owner. The presentation also includes a description of the financing alternatives that we offer. Prior to the closing of any sale, a verification officer interviews each prospect to ensure our compliance with sales policies and regulatory agency requirements. The verification officer also plays a Bonus Time video for the customer to explain the advantages of and limitations on the Bonus Time program. No sale becomes final until a statutory waiting period (which varies from state to state) of three to fifteen calendar days has passed. We also sell our Vacation Intervals to existing Silverleaf Owners as either upgraded sales of more desirable higher priced Vacation Intervals or additional week Vacation Interval sales.
 
Sales representatives receive commissions ranging from 4.0% to 14.0% of the sales price of a Vacation Interval depending on established guidelines. Sales managers also receive commissions of 2.0% to 6.0% and are subject to commission chargebacks in the event the purchaser fails to make the first required payment. Sales directors also receive commissions of 1.0% to 3.5%, which are also subject to chargebacks.

Prospects who are interested in a lower priced product are offered biennial (alternate year) intervals or other lower priced products that entitle the prospect to sample a resort for a specified number of nights. The prospect may apply the cost of a lower priced product against the down payment on a Vacation Interval if the interval is purchased by a certain date. In addition, we actively market both on-site and off-site upgraded Vacation Intervals to existing Silverleaf Owners, as well as additional week sales to existing Silverleaf Owners. Although most upgrades and additional week sales are sold by our in-house sales staff, we have contracted with a third party to assist in offsite marketing of these at the Destination Resorts. We have been focusing on increasing the percentage mix of sales to existing customers in 2006 and 2005. These upgrade and additional week programs have been well received by Silverleaf Owners and accounted for approximately 55.7% and 55.2% of our gross revenues from Vacation Interval sales for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. By offering lower priced products and upgraded and additional week Vacation Intervals, we believe we offer an affordable product for all prospects in our target market. Also, by offering products with a range of prices, we attempt to broaden our market with initial sales of lower-priced products, which we attempt to gradually upgrade and/or augment with additional week sales over time.

In March 2006, we opened our first showroom-style, off-site sales office. The showroom, located in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex in Irving, Texas, operates under the name “Silverleaf Vacation Store.” It offers potential customers an interactive “virtual” experience of our resorts, including a model unit, photo gallery, and film presentation for each of our 13 current resorts and their related amenities. The 16,500 square-foot showroom cost approximately $1.1 million and employs approximately 30 to 40 on-site sales personnel. After a nine to twelve month ramp up period, we believe this new showroom will generate between $10 million to $12 million in annual sales to new members. The showroom will provide us with a significant sales opportunity by enabling potential customers to experience the quality and service of our resorts in their own community. We expect that new owners who purchase at these showrooms will later participate in our upgrade and additional week sales programs.

Our sales representatives are a critical component of our sales and marketing effort. We continually strive to attract, train, and retain a dedicated sales force. We provide intensive sales instruction and training, which assists the sales representatives in acquainting prospects with the resort's benefits. Our sales instruction and training also focuses on compliance by each sales representative with all federal, state, and local laws applicable to timeshare sales. Each sales representative is our employee and receives some employment benefits. At December 31, 2006, we employed 537 sales representatives.

Seasonality

Our sales of Vacation Intervals have generally been lower in the months of November and December. Cash flow and earnings may be impacted by the timing of development, the completion of future resorts, and the potential impact of weather or other conditions in the regions where we operate. Our operating results could be negatively impacted by these factors.

Customer Financing

We offer financing to buyers of Vacation Intervals at our resorts. Buyers who elect to finance their purchases through us typically make down payments of at least 10% of the purchase prices and deliver promissory notes for the balances. The promissory notes generally bear interest at a fixed rate, are generally payable over a seven-year to ten-year period, and are secured by a first mortgage on the Vacation Interval. We bear the risk of defaults on these promissory notes. In 2005, we began obtaining a pre-screen credit score on touring families. If the credit score does not meet certain minimum credit criteria, a 15% down payment is generally required instead of our standard 10% down payment. There are a number of risks associated with financing customers’ purchases of Vacation Intervals. For an explanation of these risks, please see “Risk Factors” beginning on page 21 of this report.

In 2006 we accrued 17.3% of the purchase price of Vacation Intervals as estimated uncollectible revenue, which is an offset to Vacation Interval sales. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 152, this line item was recorded as an expense provision for uncollectible notes. The allowance for uncollectible notes was 22.9% of gross notes receivable as of December 31, 2006 compared to 22.8% at December 31, 2005. We plan to continue our current collection programs and seek new programs to reduce note defaults and improve the credit quality of our customers. However, there can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful.

If a buyer of a Vacation Interval defaults, we generally must foreclose on the Vacation Interval and attempt to resell it. When this occurs the associated marketing, selling, and administrative costs from the original sale are not recovered and sales and marketing costs must be incurred again to resell the Vacation Interval. Although, in many cases, we may have recourse against a Vacation Interval buyer for the unpaid price, certain states have laws that limit or hinder our ability to recover personal judgments against customers who have defaulted on their loans. For example, under Texas law, if we pursue a post-foreclosure deficiency claim against a customer, the customer may file a court proceeding to determine the fair market value of the property foreclosed upon. In such event, we may not recover a personal judgment against the customer for the full amount of the deficiency, but may recover only to the extent that the indebtedness owed to the Company exceeds the fair market value of the property. Accordingly, we do not generally pursue this remedy because we have not found it to be cost effective.

At December 31, 2006, we had notes receivable (including notes unrelated to Vacation Intervals) in the approximate principal amount of $297.8 million with an allowance for uncollectible notes of approximately $68.1 million.

Additionally, at December 31, 2006, our off-balance sheet finance subsidiary, SF-III, held notes receivable totaling $62.7 million, with related borrowings of $52.3 million. Except for the repurchase of notes that fail to meet initial eligibility requirements, we are not obligated to repurchase defaulted or any other contracts sold to SF-III. As the Servicer of the notes receivable sold to SF-III, we are obligated by the terms of the conduit facility to foreclose upon the Vacation Interval securing a defaulted note receivable. We may, but are not obligated to, purchase the foreclosed Vacation Interval for an amount equal to the net fair market value of the Vacation Interval, which may not be less than fifteen percent of the original acquisition price that the customer paid for the Vacation Interval. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we paid approximately $2.1 million to repurchase the Vacation Intervals securing defaulted notes receivable to facilitate the re-marketing of those Vacation Intervals. Our total investment in SF-III was valued at $13.0 million at December 31, 2006.

We recognize interest income as earned. Interest income is accrued on notes receivable, net of an estimated amount that will not be collected, until the individual notes become 90 days delinquent. Once a note becomes 90 days delinquent, the accrual of interest income ceases until collection is deemed probable.

We intend to borrow either directly or through our fully consolidated special purpose finance subsidiaries additional funds under our existing revolving credit facilities with our lenders to finance our operations. At December 31, 2006, we and our fully consolidated subsidiaries, had borrowings under our credit facilities in the approximate principal amount of $245.2 million, of which $204.3 million of such facilities are receivables based and currently permit borrowings of 75% to 80% of the principal amount of performing notes. Payments from Silverleaf Owners on such notes are credited directly to the senior lender and applied against our loan balance. At December 31, 2006, we had a portfolio of approximately 36,104 Vacation Interval customer promissory notes in the approximate principal amount of $297.4 million, of which approximately $4.7 million in principal amount was 61 days or more past due and therefore ineligible as collateral.

At December 31, 2006, our portfolio of customer notes receivable had an average yield of 15.7%. At such date, our borrowings had a weighted average cost of 7.9%, and had a fixed-to-floating debt ratio of 62% fixed rate debt to 38% floating rate debt. We have historically derived net interest income from our operating activities because the interest rates we charge our customers who finance the purchase of their Vacation Intervals exceed the interest rates we pay our senior lenders. Because 38% of our existing indebtedness currently bears interest at variable rates and our customer notes receivable bear interest at fixed rates, increases in interest rates would erode the spread in interest rates that we have historically experienced and could cause our interest expense on borrowings to exceed our interest income on our portfolio of customer loans. Therefore, any increase in interest rates, particularly if sustained, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

To partially offset an increase in interest rates, we have engaged in two interest rate hedging transactions, or derivatives, related to our conduit loan through Silverleaf Finance II, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for a notional amount of $39.3 million at December 31, 2006, that expires between September 2011 and March 2014. SF-IV’s VFN also acts as an interest rate hedge since it contains a provision for an interest rate cap, however there are no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 2006.

In addition, the Series 2005-A Notes related to our off-balance sheet special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, with a balance of $52.3 million at December 31, 2006, bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 5.4%, and our Series 2006-A Notes related to SF-V bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 6.7%.

Limitations on availability of financing would inhibit sales of Vacation Intervals due to (i) the lack of funds to finance the initial negative cash flow that results from sales that we finance, and (ii) reduced demand if we are unable to provide financing to purchasers of Vacation Intervals. We ordinarily receive only 10% to 15% of the purchase price as a cash down payment on the sale of a Vacation Interval that we finance, but we must pay in full the costs of developing, marketing, and selling the Vacation Interval. Maximum borrowings available under our current credit agreements may not be sufficient to cover these costs, thereby straining capital resources, liquidity, and capacity to grow. In addition, to the extent interest rates decrease generally on loans available to our customers, we face an increased risk that customers will pre-pay their loans and reduce our income from operating activities.

We typically provide financing to customers over a seven-year to ten-year period. Our customer notes receivable had an average maturity of 6.75 years at December 31, 2006. Our credit facilities have scheduled maturities between April 2008 and July 2018. Additionally, our revolving credit facilities could be declared immediately due and payable as a result of any default by us. Although it appears that we have adequate liquidity to meet our needs through at least December 2008, we are continuing to identify additional financing arrangements beyond such date.

In the first quarter of 2007, we consolidated our debt with Textron Financial Corporation into one revolving loan. As a result of the amended and restated loan and security agreement, the funding period on the consolidated debt has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010, with revised maturity dates of January 31, 2013 for the receivables component and January 31, 2012 on both the acquisition and inventory components. In addition, the interest rates previously charged have been reduced. This transaction is described in more detail under the heading “Subsequent Events” in Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

Development and Acquisition Process

We intend to develop at our Existing Resorts and/or acquire new resorts only to the extent we deem such expansion financially beneficial, and then only as the capital markets permit.

If we are able to develop or acquire new resorts, we will do so under our established development policies. Before committing capital to a site, we test the market using our own market analysis testing techniques and explore the zoning and land-use laws applicable to the potential site and the regulatory issues pertaining to licenses and permits for timeshare marketing, sales, and operations. We also contact various governmental entities and review applications for necessary governmental permits and approvals. If we are satisfied with our market analysis and regulatory review, we will prepare a conceptual layout of the resort, including building site plans and resort amenities. After we apply our standard lodging unit design and amenity package, we prepare a budget that estimates the cost of developing the resort, including costs of lodging facilities, infrastructure, and amenities, as well as projected sales, marketing, and general and administrative costs. We typically perform additional due diligence, including obtaining an environmental report by an environmental consulting firm, a survey of the property, and a title commitment. We employ legal counsel to review these documents and pertinent legal issues. If we are satisfied with the site after the environmental and legal review, we will complete the purchase of the property.

We manage all construction activities internally. We typically complete the development of a new resort's basic infrastructure and models within one year, with additional units to be added within 180 to 270 days based on demand, weather permitting. A normal part of the development process is the establishment of a functional sales office at the new resort.

Clubs / Silverleaf Club

The Silverleaf Club directors are elected by the majority of the boards of directors of the individual Clubs. We have the right to supervise the management of our resorts under the terms of the Management Agreement. The Silverleaf Owners are obligated to pay monthly dues to their respective Clubs, which obligation is secured by a lien on their Vacation Interval in favor of their Club. If a Silverleaf Owner fails to pay his monthly dues, his Club may institute foreclosure proceedings regarding the delinquent Silverleaf Owner's Vacation Interval. The number of foreclosures that occurred as a result of Silverleaf Owners failing to pay monthly dues was 1,222 in 2006 and 808 in 2005. Typically, we purchase at foreclosure all Vacation Intervals that are the subject of foreclosure proceedings instituted by the Club because of delinquent dues.

At December 31, 2006, the Club at each timeshare resort (other than Orlando Breeze) operates through a centralized organization provided by Silverleaf Club to manage the resorts on a collective basis. The consolidation of resort operations through Silverleaf Club permits: (i) a centralized reservation system for all resorts; (ii) substantial cost savings by purchasing goods and services for all resorts on a group basis, which generally results in a lower cost of goods and services than if such goods and services were purchased by each resort on an individual basis; (iii) centralized management for the entire resort system; (iv) centralized legal, accounting, and administrative services for the entire resort system; and (v) uniform implementation of various rules and regulations governing all resorts. All furniture, furnishings, recreational equipment, and other personal property used in connection with the operation of the Existing Resorts are owned by either that resort’s Club or the Silverleaf Club, rather than by us.

Orlando Breeze has its own club, Orlando Breeze Resort Club, which is operated independently of Silverleaf Club; however, we supervise the management and operation of the Orlando Breeze Resort Club under the terms of a written agreement.

At December 31, 2006, Silverleaf Club had 758 full-time employees and Orlando Breeze Resort Club had 12 full-time employees. Each Club is solely responsible for their salaries, as well as the direct expenses of operating the Existing Resorts, while we are responsible for the direct expenses of new development and all marketing and sales activities. To the extent Silverleaf Club provides payroll, administrative, and other services that directly benefit the Company, we reimburse Silverleaf Club for such services and vice versa.

Silverleaf Club collects dues from Silverleaf Owners, plus certain other amounts assessed against the Silverleaf Owners from time to time, and generates income by the operation of certain amenities at the Existing Resorts. Silverleaf Club and Orlando Breeze Resort Club dues were approximately $59.96 per month ($29.98 for biennial owners) during 2006, except for certain members of Oak N’ Spruce Resort, who prepay dues at an annual rate of approximately $497. Such amounts are used by the respective Clubs to pay the costs of operating the Existing Resorts and the management fees due to the Company pursuant to Management Agreements. The Management Agreement with Silverleaf Club authorizes the Company to supervise the management and operations of the resorts and provides for a maximum management fee equal to 15% of gross revenues of Silverleaf Club, but our right to receive such a fee on an annual basis is limited to the amount of Silverleaf Club's net income. However, if we do not receive the maximum fee, such deficiency is deferred for payment to succeeding years, subject again to the annual net income limitation. The Management Agreement between Orlando Breeze Resort Club and us authorizes us to supervise management and operation of Orlando Breeze Resort and provides for a maximum annual management fee equal to 15% of gross revenues of Orlando Breeze Resort Club, but our right to receive such a fee on an annual basis is limited to the amount of Orlando Breeze Resort Club’s net income. However, if we do not receive the maximum fee, such deficiency is deferred for payment to succeeding years, subject again to the annual net income limitation. Due to anticipated refurbishment of units at the Existing Resorts, together with the operational and maintenance expenses associated with our current expansion and development plans, our 2006 management fees were subject to the annual net income limitation. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2006, management fees recognized were $1.9 million. For financial reporting purposes, management fees from Silverleaf Club are recognized based on the lower of (i) the aforementioned maximum fees or (ii) Silverleaf Club’s net income. The Silverleaf Club Management Agreement is effective through March 2010, and will continue year-to-year thereafter unless cancelled by either party. As a result of the past performance of the Silverleaf Club, it is uncertain whether Silverleaf Club will consistently generate positive net income. Therefore, future income to the Company under the Management Agreement with Silverleaf Club could be limited. At December 31, 2006, there were approximately 100,000 Vacation Interval owners who pay dues to Silverleaf Club and approximately 900 Vacation Interval owners who pay dues to Orlando Breeze Resort Club. If we develop new resorts outside of Florida, their respective Clubs are expected to be added to the Silverleaf Club Management Agreement.

Other Operations

Operation of Amenities. We own, operate, and receive the revenues from the marina at The Villages, the golf course and pro shop at Holiday Hills, and the golf course and pro shop at Apple Mountain. Although we own the golf course at Holly Lake, a homeowners’ association in the development operates the golf course. In general, Silverleaf Club receives revenues from the various amenities that require a usage fee, such as watercraft rentals, horseback rides, and restaurants.

Samplers. Revenues related to sampler contracts, which entitle the prospective owner to sample a resort during certain periods, have been and will continue to be deferred until the customer uses the stay or allows the contract to expire. Effective January 1, 2006, sampler sales and related costs are accounted for as incidental operations, whereby incremental costs in excess of incremental revenue are charged to expense as incurred and the operations are presented as a net expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Conversely, incremental revenue in excess of incremental costs is recorded as a reduction of inventory in the consolidated balance sheet. Incremental costs include costs that would not have been incurred had we not sold samplers. During the year ended December 31, 2006, all sampler sales were recorded as a reduction to sales and marketing expense since direct and incremental costs of sampler sales exceeded incremental sampler sales. The amount of the reduction to sales and marketing expense for sampler sales in 2006 was $2.9 million. Prior to SFAS No. 152, sampler sales were reported separately as revenue. We recognized $2.6 million and $2.2 million in revenues from sampler sales for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Utility Services. At December 31, 2004, we owned the water supply facilities at Piney Shores, The Villages, Hill Country, Holly Lake, Ozark Mountain, Holiday Hills, Timber Creek, and Fox River resorts. We also owned the waste-water treatment facilities at The Villages, Piney Shores, Ozark Mountain, Holly Lake, Timber Creek, and Fox River resorts. We maintained permits to supply and charge third parties for the water supply facilities at The Villages, Holly Lake, Holiday Hills, Ozark Mountain, Hill Country, Piney Shores, and Timber Creek resorts, and the waste-water facilities at the Ozark Mountain, Holly Lake, Piney Shores, Hill Country, and The Villages resorts. In March 2005, all of our utility services assets and liabilities were sold for an aggregate sales price of $13.1 million, which resulted in a pretax gain of $879,000. Certain of the purchasers of these utility assets entered into a services agreement to provide uninterrupted water supply and waste water treatment services to the eight timeshare resorts to which the transferred utility assets relate. The purchasers of these utility assets charge the timeshare resorts the tariffed rate for those utility services that are regulated by the states in which the resorts are located. For any unregulated utility services, the purchasers of these utility assets charge a rate set in accordance with the ratemaking procedures of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

Other Property. At December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 11 acres in Mississippi, and we are entitled to 85% of any profits from this land. An affiliate of a director of the Company owns a 10% net profits interest in this land. We subsequently sold approximately 9 acres of this land during the first quarter of 2006 for approximately $789,000, which resulted in a pretax gain of approximately $499,000. 

Since 1998, we owned 1,940 acres of undeveloped land near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which we were holding for future development as a timeshare resort. In 2005, we sold this property for an aggregate sales price of $6.1 million after related expenses, which resulted in a gain of $3.6 million.

We also own a 500-acre tract of land in the Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts that we are in the initial stages of developing. We have not yet finalized our future development plans for this site; however, we believe that its proximity to major population centers in the Northeastern United States and the year-round outdoor recreational attractions in the Berkshire region make this property suitable for future development as a timeshare resort.

Policies with Respect to Certain Activities

Our board of directors sets policies with regard to all aspects of our business operations without a vote of security holders. In some instances the power to set certain policies may be delegated by the board of directors to a committee comprised of its members, or to the officers of the Company. As set forth herein under the headings “Customer Financing” and “Description of Certain Indebtedness,” we borrow money to finance all of our operations and we make loans to our customers to finance the purchase of our Vacation Intervals.

We do not:

 
·
invest in the securities of unaffiliated issuers for the purpose of exercising control;

 
·
underwrite securities of other issuers;

 
·
engage in the purchase and sale (or turnover) of investments sponsored by other issuers; or

 
·
offer securities in exchange for property.

Nor do we propose to engage in any of the above activities. In the past we have from time to time repurchased or otherwise reacquired our own common stock and other securities. In May 2002 we reacquired $56.9 million in principal amount of our 10 ½% senior subordinated notes in exchange for $28.5 million of our 6% senior subordinated notes and 23.9 million shares of our common stock. In July 2003 we reacquired $7.6 million in principal amount of our 10 ½% senior subordinated notes for approximately $2.4 million of cash, which resulted in a one-time gain of approximately $5.1 million. In June 2004 we completed an offer to exchange $24.7 million in principal amount of our 6% senior subordinated notes due 2007 for $24.7 million in principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2010 and a cash payment of approximately $271,000, representing accrued, unpaid interest from April 1, 2004 through June 6, 2004. We have no policy or proposed policy with respect to future repurchases or re-acquisitions of our common stock or other securities; however, our board of directors may approve such repurchase activities if it finds these activities to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
 
11


Investment Policies

Our board of directors also determines all of our policies concerning investments, including the percentage of assets, which we may invest in any one type of investment, and the principles and procedures we will employ in connection with the acquisition of assets. The board of directors both determines our policies with regard to investment matters and may change these policies without a vote of security holders. We do not propose to invest in any investments or activities not related directly or indirectly to (i) the timeshare business, (ii) the acquisition, development, marketing, selling or financing of Vacation Intervals, or (iii) the management of timeshare resorts. We currently have no policies limiting the geographic areas in which we might engage in investments in the timeshare business, or limiting the percentage of our assets invested in any specific timeshare related property. We primarily acquire assets for income and not to hold for possible capital gain.

Participation in Vacation Interval Exchange Networks

Silverleaf Plus Program. In February 2006 we began offering the new Silverleaf Plus program. This program, administered through Silverleaf Club, includes all of the prior benefits to Silverleaf Owners plus enhanced vacation options through the Silverleaf exchange program. In addition to use of their owned weeks and bonus time, Silverleaf Owners who purchase under the Silverleaf Plus program can also split their weeks into a minimum of 2-day up to 5-day increments, and extend any unused days into the following year.

Internal Exchanges. Each Silverleaf Owner has certain exchange privileges through the Silverleaf Club which may be used on an annual basis to: (i) exchange an interval for a different interval (week) at the same resort so long as the desired interval is of an equal or lower rating; or (ii) exchange an interval for the same interval (week) of equal or lower rating at any other of our Existing Resorts. Silverleaf Owners of Getaway Resorts can only exchange for an interval in a Getaway Resort unless they own a “Presidents” or “Chairmans” Vacation Interval. These exchange rights are a convenience we provide Silverleaf Owners as an accommodation to them, and are conditioned upon availability of the desired interval or resort. Approximately 5,168 exchanges occurred in 2006. Silverleaf Owners pay an exchange fee of $75 to Silverleaf Club for each such internal exchange.

Exchanges. We believe that our Vacation Intervals are made more attractive by our participation in a Vacation Interval exchange network operated by RCI. At December 31, 2006, the Existing Resorts (except for Orlando Breeze) are registered with RCI, and approximately 42% of Silverleaf Owners participate in RCI's exchange network. Membership in RCI allows participating Silverleaf Owners to exchange their occupancy right in a unit in a particular year for an occupancy right at the same time or a different time of the same or lower color rating in another participating resort, based upon availability and the payment of a variable exchange fee. A member may exchange a Vacation Interval for an occupancy right in another participating resort by listing the Vacation Interval as available with the exchange organization and by requesting occupancy at another participating resort, indicating the particular resort or geographic area to which the member desires to travel, the size of the unit desired, and the period during which occupancy is desired.

RCI assigns a rating of “red,” “white,” or “blue” to each Vacation Interval for participating resorts based upon a number of factors, including the location and size of the unit, the quality of the resort, and the period during which the Vacation Interval is available, and attempts to satisfy exchange requests by providing an occupancy right in another Vacation Interval with a similar rating. For example, an owner of a red Vacation Interval may exchange his interval for a red, white, or blue interval. An owner of a white Vacation Interval may exchange only for a white or blue interval, and an owner of a blue interval may exchange only for a blue interval. At December 31, 2006, RCI’s designation of our units of red, white, and blue Vacation Intervals is approximately 67%, 20%, and 13%, respectively. If RCI is unable to meet the member's initial request, it suggests alternative resorts based on availability. The annual membership fees in RCI, which are at the option and expense of the owner of the Vacation Interval, are currently $89. Exchange rights with RCI require an additional fee of approximately $164 for domestic exchanges and $199 for foreign exchanges. Silverleaf Club charges an exchange fee of $75 for each exchange through its internal exchange program. Resorts participating in the exchange networks are required to adhere to certain minimum standards regarding available amenities, safety, security, décor, unit supplies, maid service, room availability, and overall ambiance. See “Risk Factors” for a description of risks associated with the exchange programs.

Orlando Breeze is not under contract with RCI; however it is under contract with Interval International, Inc., a competitor of RCI. An owner of a Vacation Interval at Orlando Breeze may, for annual membership fees and exchange fees similar to those charged by RCI, become a member of the Interval International timeshare exchange system.

Competition

All of our operations are contained within and are in support of a single industry segment - the vacation ownership industry - and we currently operate in only six geographic areas of the United States. These geographic areas are Texas, Missouri, Massachusetts, Illinois, Georgia, and Florida. We encounter significant competition from other timeshare resorts in the markets that we serve. The timeshare industry is highly fragmented and includes a large number of local and regional resort developers and operators. However, some of the world's most recognized lodging, hospitality, and entertainment companies, such as Marriott International (Marriott Vacation Club brands), The Walt Disney Company, Hilton Hotels Corporation, Hyatt Corporation, and Four Seasons Resorts have entered the industry. Other companies in the timeshare industry, including Sunterra Corporation (“Sunterra”), Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (“Wyndham”), through its Wyndham Vacation Resorts (formerly Fairfield Resorts), and WorldMark by Wyndham (formerly Trendwest Resorts), Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. (“Starwood”), Ramada Vacation Suites (“Ramada”), and Bluegreen Corporation (“Bluegreen”) are, or are subsidiaries of, public companies with enhanced access to capital and other resources that public ownership implies.

Wyndham, Sunterra, and Bluegreen own timeshare resorts in or near Branson, Missouri, which compete with our Holiday Hills and Ozark Mountain resorts, and to a lesser extent with our Timber Creek Resort. Sunterra also owns a resort that is located near and competes with Piney Shores Resort. Additionally, there are a number of public or privately-owned and operated timeshare resorts in most states in which we own resorts that compete with the Existing Resorts.

Many competitors also own timeshare resorts in or near Orlando, Florida where our newest resort, Orlando Breeze, is located. However sales of Orlando Breeze Vacation Intervals are primarily upgrade and additional week interval sales to our existing customers, with the sales taking place at our other Existing Resorts. We do not have a sales office in Orlando that directly competes with other resort developers and operators located there.

We believe Marriott, Disney, Hilton, Hyatt, and Four Seasons generally target consumers with higher annual incomes than our target market. Our other competitors target consumers with similar income levels as our target market. Our competitors may possess significantly greater financial, marketing, personnel, and other resources than we do. We cannot be certain that such competitors will not significantly reduce the price of their Vacation Intervals or offer greater convenience, services, or amenities than we do.

The American Resort Development Association (“ARDA”) recently published a study entitled State of the Vacation Timeshare Industry, 2006 United States Study (the “ARDA Study”), which reported sales volume in the United States of $8.6 billion for 2005, compared to $4.2 billion in 2000 and $2.2 billion in 1996, equating to a 10-year compound annual growth rate exceeding 16 percent. The study estimated that 4.1 million households owned one or more U.S. timeshare intervals or points equivalent at January 1, 2006, representing a 5.1 percent increase over the amount reported one year earlier; however, there can be no assurance that the existing levels of growth in timeshare demand will continue or that we will not have to compete with larger and better capitalized competitors in future periods for a declining number of potential timeshare purchasers.

While our principal competitors are developers of timeshare resorts, we are also subject to competition from other entities engaged in the commercial lodging business, including condominiums, hotels, and motels, as well as others engaged in the leisure business and, to a lesser extent, from campgrounds, recreational vehicles, tour packages, and second home sales. A reduction in the product costs associated with any of these competitors, or an increase in the Company's costs relative to such competitors' costs, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

Numerous businesses, individuals, and other entities compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and development of new resorts. Some of these competitors are larger and have greater financial and other resources. Such competition may result in a higher cost for properties we wish to acquire or may cause us to be unable to acquire suitable properties for the development of new resorts.

Governmental Regulation

General. Our marketing and sales of Vacation Intervals and other operations are subject to extensive regulation by the federal government and the states and jurisdictions in which the Existing Resorts are located and in which our Vacation Intervals are marketed and sold. On a federal level, the Federal Trade Commission has taken the most active regulatory role through the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or competition in interstate commerce. Other federal legislation to which the Company is or may be subject includes the Truth-in-Lending Act and Regulation Z, the Equal Opportunity Credit Act and Regulation B, the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Consumer Credit Protection Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act, the Fair Housing Act, the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Act, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Additionally, as a publicly owned company, we are subject to all federal and state securities laws, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

In response to certain fraudulent marketing practices in the timeshare industry in the 1980's, various states enacted legislation aimed at curbing such abuses. Certain states in which we operate have adopted specific laws and regulations regarding the marketing and sale of Vacation Intervals. The laws of most states require us to file a detailed offering statement and supporting documents with a designated state authority, which describe the Company, the project, and our promotion and sale of Vacation Intervals. The offering statement must be approved by the appropriate state agency before we may solicit residents of such state. The laws of certain states require us to deliver an offering statement (or disclosure statement), together with certain additional information concerning the terms of the purchase, to prospective purchasers of Vacation Intervals who are residents of such states, even if the resort is not located in such state. The laws of Missouri generally only require certain disclosures in sales documents for prospective purchasers. There are also laws in each state where we sell Vacation Intervals that grant the purchaser the right to cancel a contract of purchase at any time within three to fifteen calendar days following the sale.

We market and sell our Vacation Intervals to residents of certain states adjacent or proximate to the states where our resorts are located. Many of these neighboring states also regulate the marketing and sale of Vacation Intervals to their residents. Most states have additional laws which regulate our activities and protect purchasers, such as real estate licensure laws; travel sales licensure laws; anti-fraud laws; consumer protection laws; telemarketing laws; prize, gift, and sweepstakes laws; and other related laws. We do not register all of our resorts in each of the states where we register certain resorts.

Most of the states where we currently operate have enacted laws and regulations that limit our ability to market our resorts through telemarketing activities. These states have enacted “do not call” lists that permit consumers to block telemarketing activities by registering their telephone numbers for a period of years for a nominal fee. We purchase these lists from the various states quarterly and do not contact those telephone numbers listed. Additionally, the federal “Do-Not-Call Implementation Act” (the “DNC Act”), which was enacted on March 11, 2003, provided for the establishment of a National Do Not Call Registry administered by the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) under its Telemarketing Sales Rule (“TSR”) and the Federal Communications Commission. The FTC began enforcement actions in October 2003 for violations of the TSR by telemarketers. Violations could result in penalties up to $11,000 per violation. The FTC has reported that approximately 107 million telephone numbers had been registered on the National Do Not Call List Registry by the end of 2005. Since the introduction of state and federal Do-Not-Call legislation, we have become somewhat more reliant on direct mail solicitations as an alternative to some of the telemarketing techniques we have historically utilized. Existing and future restrictions on telemarketing practices could cause our sales to decline.

We believe we are in material compliance with applicable federal and state laws and regulations relating to the sales and marketing of Vacation Intervals in the jurisdictions in which we currently do business. However, we are normally and currently the subject of a number of consumer complaints and regulatory inquiries generally relating to our marketing or sales practices. We always attempt to resolve all such complaints or inquiries directly with the consumer or the regulatory authority involved. We cannot be certain that all of these complaints and inquiries by regulators can be resolved without adverse regulatory actions or other consequences, such as class action lawsuits or rescission offers. We expect some level of consumer complaints in the ordinary course of business as we aggressively market and sell Vacation Intervals to households, which may include individuals who may not be financially sophisticated. We cannot be certain that the costs of resolving consumer complaints, regulatory inquiries, or of qualifying under Vacation Interval ownership regulations in all jurisdictions in which we conduct sales or wish to conduct sales in the future will not be significant, that we are in material compliance with applicable federal and state laws and regulations, or that violations of law will not have adverse implications, including negative public relations, potential litigation, and regulatory sanctions. The expense, negative publicity, and potential sanctions associated with the failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition. Further, we cannot be certain that either the federal government or states having jurisdiction over our business will not adopt additional regulations or take other actions that would adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

During the 1980's and continuing through the present, the timeshare industry has been and continues to be afflicted with negative publicity and prosecutorial attention due to, among other things, marketing practices which were widely viewed as deceptive or fraudulent. Among the many timeshare companies which have been the subject of federal, state, and local enforcement actions and investigations in the past were certain of the partnerships and corporations that were merged into the Company prior to 1996 (the “Merged Companies,” or individually “Merged Company”). Some of the settlements, injunctions, and decrees resulting from litigation and enforcement actions (the “Orders”) to which certain of the Merged Companies consented in the 1980’s purport to bind all successors and assigns, and accordingly may also be enforceable against the Company. In addition, at that time the Company was directly a party to one such Order issued in Missouri. No past or present officers, directors, or employees of the Company or any Merged Company were named as subjects or respondents in any of these Orders; however, each Order purports to bind generically unnamed “officers, directors, and employees” of certain Merged Companies. Therefore, certain of these Orders may be interpreted to be enforceable against the present officers, directors, and employees of the Company even though they were not individually named as subjects of the enforcement actions which resulted in these Orders. These Orders require, among other things, that all parties bound by the Orders, including the Company, refrain from engaging in deceptive sales practices in connection with the offer and sale of Vacation Intervals. The requirements of the Orders are substantially what applicable state and federal laws and regulations mandate, but the consequence of violating the Orders may be that sanctions (including possible financial penalties and suspension or loss of licensure) may be imposed more summarily and may be harsher than would be the case if the Orders did not bind the Company. In addition, the existence of the Orders may be viewed negatively by prospective regulators in jurisdictions where the Company does not now do business, with attendant risks of increased costs and reduced opportunities.

In early 1997, we were the subject of some consumer complaints that triggered governmental investigations into the Company's affairs. In March 1997, we entered into an Assurance of Voluntary Compliance with the Texas Attorney General, in which we agreed to make additional disclosure to purchasers of Vacation Intervals regarding the limited availability of our Bonus Time program during certain periods. We paid $15,200 for investigatory costs and attorneys' fees of the Texas Attorney General in connection with this matter. Also, in March 1997, we entered into an agreed order (the “Agreed Order”) with the Texas Real Estate Commission requiring that we comply with certain aspects of the Texas Timeshare Act, Texas Real Estate License Act, and Rules of the Texas Real Estate Commission, with which we had allegedly been in non-compliance until mid-1995. The allegations included (i) our admitted failure to register the Missouri Destination Resorts in Texas (due to our misunderstanding of the reach of the Texas Timeshare Act); (ii) payment of referral fees for Vacation Interval sales, the receipt of which was improper on the part of the recipients; and (iii) miscellaneous other actions alleged to violate the Texas Timeshare Act, which we denied. While the Agreed Order acknowledged that we independently resolved ten consumer complaints referenced in the Agreed Order, discontinued the practices complained of, and registered the Missouri Destination Resorts during 1995 and 1996, the Texas Real Estate Commission ordered us to cease these discontinued practices and enhance our disclosure to purchasers of Vacation Intervals. In the Agreed Order, we agreed to make a voluntary donation of $30,000 to the State of Texas. The Agreed Order also directed that we revise our training manual for timeshare salespersons and verification officers. While the Agreed Order resolved all of the alleged violations contained in complaints received by the Texas Real Estate Commission through December 31, 1996, we have encountered and expect to encounter some level of additional consumer complaints, regulatory scrutiny, and periodic remedial action in the ordinary course of our business. In this regard, during 2004 we renewed our timeshare-offering plan in the state of New York, which we inadvertently allowed to lapse in 2001. As part of this renewal process, we rescinded approximately $897,000 of sales to New York residents that were made in 2001 after our timeshare offering plan lapsed.

We have established compliance and supervisory methods in training sales and marketing personnel as to adherence to legal requirements. With regard to direct mailings, a designated compliance employee reviews all mailings to determine if they comply with applicable state legal requirements. With regard to telemarketing, our marketing management personnel prepare a script for telemarketers based upon applicable state legal requirements. All telemarketers receive training that includes, among other things, directions to adhere strictly to the approved script. Telemarketers are also monitored by their supervisors to ensure that they do not deviate from the approved script. Additionally, sales personnel receive training as to such applicable legal requirements. We have a salaried employee at each sales office who reviews the sales documents prior to closing a sale to review compliance with legal requirements. Periodically, we are notified by regulatory agencies to revise our disclosures to consumers and to remedy other alleged inadequacies regarding the sales and marketing process. In such cases, we revise our direct mailings, telemarketing scripts, or sales disclosure documents, as appropriate, to comply with such requests. We have supervisors to monitor compliance with all state and federal Do-Not-Call regulations.

We are not currently aware of any non-compliance with any state or federal statute, rule, or regulation which we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at such property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and tort liability and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. Such laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants, and the liability under such laws has been interpreted to be joint and several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of responsibility. The cost of investigation, remediation, or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate the contamination on such property, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell such property or to borrow using such property as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at a disposal or treatment facility also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of a release of hazardous or toxic substances at such disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by such person. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. Finally, the owner or operator of a site may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from a site or from environmental regulatory violations. In connection with our ownership and operation of our properties, we may be potentially liable for such claims.

Certain federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and ordinances govern the removal, encapsulation, or disturbance of asbestos-containing materials (“ACMs”) when such materials are in poor condition or in the event of construction, remodeling, renovation, or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose liability for release of ACMs and may provide for third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with ACMs. In connection with our ownership and operation of our properties, we may be potentially liable for such costs. In 1994, we conducted a limited asbestos survey at each of our Existing Resorts, which surveys did not reveal material potential losses associated with ACMs at certain of the Existing Resorts.

In addition, recent studies have linked radon, a naturally occurring substance, to increased risks of lung cancer. While there are currently no state or federal requirements regarding the monitoring for, presence of, or exposure to radon in indoor air, the EPA and the Surgeon General recommend testing residences for the presence of radon in indoor air, and the EPA further recommends that concentrations of radon in indoor air be limited to less than 4 picocuries per liter of air (Pci/L) (the “Recommended Action Level”). The presence of radon in concentrations equal to or greater than the Recommended Action Level in one or more of our properties may adversely affect our ability to sell Vacation Intervals at such properties and the market value of such property. We have not tested our properties for radon. Recently-enacted federal legislation will eventually require us to disclose to potential purchasers of Vacation Intervals at our resorts that were constructed prior to 1978 any known lead-paint hazards and will impose treble damages for failure to so notify.

Electric transmission lines are located in the vicinity of some of our properties. Electric transmission lines are one of many sources of electromagnetic fields (“EMFs”) to which people may be exposed. Research into potential health impacts associated with exposure to EMFs has produced inconclusive results. Notwithstanding the lack of conclusive scientific evidence, some states now regulate the strength of electric and magnetic fields emanating from electric transmission lines, while others have required transmission facilities to measure for levels of EMFs. In addition, we understand that lawsuits have, on occasion, been filed (primarily against electric utilities) alleging personal injuries resulting from exposure as well as fear of adverse health effects. In addition, fear of adverse health effects from transmission lines has been a factor considered in determining property value in obtaining financing and in condemnation and eminent domain proceedings brought by power companies seeking to construct transmission lines. Therefore, there is a potential for the value of a property to be adversely affected as a result of its proximity to a transmission line and for the Company to be exposed to damage claims by persons exposed to EMFs.

We conducted Phase I environmental assessments at each of our resorts during 2001 or later, in order to identify potential environmental concerns. These Phase I assessments were carried out in accordance with accepted industry practices and consisted of non-invasive investigations of environmental conditions at the properties, including a preliminary investigation of the sites and identification of publicly known conditions concerning properties in the vicinity of the sites, physical site inspections, review of aerial photographs and relevant governmental records where readily available, interviews with knowledgeable parties, investigation for the presence of above ground and underground storage tanks presently or formerly at the sites, and the preparation and issuance of written reports. Our Phase I assessments of the properties did not reveal any environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets, or results of operations taken as a whole; nor are we aware of any such material environmental liability. Nevertheless, it is possible that our Phase I assessments did not reveal all environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are unaware. Moreover, there can be no assurance that (i) future laws, ordinances, or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability or (ii) the current environmental condition of the properties will not be affected by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of the properties (such as the presence of underground storage tanks) or by third parties unrelated to us. We do not believe that compliance with applicable environmental laws or regulations will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.

We believe that our properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. We have not been notified by any governmental authority or any third party, and are not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability, or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products in connection with any of our present properties.

Utility Regulation. At December 31, 2004, we owned the water supply and waste-water treatment facilities at several of the Existing Resorts, which are regulated by various governmental agencies. The Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission is the primary state umbrella agency regulating utilities at the resorts in Texas; and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and Public Service Commission of Missouri are the primary state umbrella agencies regulating utilities at the resorts in Missouri. The Environmental Protection Agency, division of Water Pollution Control, and the Illinois Commerce Commission are the primary state agencies regulating water utilities in Illinois. These agencies regulate the rates and charges for the services (allowing a reasonable rate of return in relation to invested capital and other factors), the size and quality of the plants, the quality of water supplied, the efficacy of waste-water treatment, and many other aspects of the utilities' operations. The agencies have approval rights regarding the entity owning the utilities (including its financial strength) and the right to approve a transfer of the applicable permits upon any change in control of the entity holding the permits. Other federal, state, regional, and local environmental, health, and other agencies also regulate various aspects of the provision of water and waste-water treatment services. In March 2005, all of our utility services assets and liabilities were sold for an aggregate sales price of $13.1 million, which resulted in a pretax gain of $879,000.

Other Regulation. Under various state and federal laws governing housing and places of public accommodation, we are required to meet certain requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Although we believe that our facilities are generally in compliance with present requirements of such laws, we are aware of certain of our properties that are not in full compliance with all aspects of such laws. We are presently responding, and expect to respond in the future, to inquiries, claims, and concerns from consumers and regulators regarding our compliance with existing state and federal regulations affording the disabled access to housing and accommodations. It is our practice to respond positively to all such inquiries, claims and concerns and to work with regulators and consumers to resolve all issues arising under existing regulations concerning access and use of our properties by disabled persons. We believe that we will incur additional costs of compliance and/or remediation in the future with regard to the requirements of such existing regulations. Future legislation may also impose new or further burdens or restrictions on owners of timeshare resort properties with respect to access by the disabled. The ultimate cost of compliance with such legislation and/or remediation of conditions found to be non-compliant is not currently ascertainable, and while such costs are not expected to have a material effect on our business, such costs could be substantial. Limitations or restrictions on the completion of certain renovations may limit application of our growth strategy in certain instances or reduce profit margins on our operations. We are also subject to a variety of local, state, and federal laws and regulations concerning health and sanitation, facility operations, fire safety and occupational safety.

Employees

At December 31, 2006, we had 1,956 full and part-time employees and the Clubs collectively had 770 full and part-time employees. Our employee relations are good, both at the Company and at the Clubs. None of our employees are represented by a labor union and we are not aware of any union organization efforts with respect to any of our employees.

Insurance

We carry comprehensive liability, fire, hurricane, and storm insurance with respect to our resorts, with policy specifications, insured limits, and deductibles customarily carried for similar properties, which we believe are adequate. There are, however, certain types of losses (such as losses arising from floods and acts of war) that are not generally insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose the capital invested in a resort, as well as the anticipated future revenues from such resort, and would continue to be obligated on any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. Any such loss could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition. We self-insure for employee medical claims reduced by certain stop-loss provisions. We also self-insure for property damage to certain vehicles and heavy equipment.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR INDEBTEDNESS AND SENIOR CREDIT FACILITIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2006

Existing Indebtedness. We use the following credit agreements to finance the sale of Vacation Intervals, to finance construction, and for working capital needs. The loans are collateralized (or cross-collateralized) by customer notes receivable, inventory, construction in process, land, improvements, and related equipment at certain of the Existing Resorts. The credit facilities secured by customer notes receivable allow advances ranging from 75% to 80% of the unpaid balance of certain eligible customer notes receivable. The following table summarizes our credit agreements with our senior lenders, our wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiaries, and our off-balance sheet qualified special purpose entity, SF-III, as of December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

Textron Facility. We have a long-standing relationship with Textron Financial Corporation dating back to August 1995. Since that time, we have had various loan facilities in place with Textron. Our facilities with Textron Financial are as follows at December 31, 2006:

 
·
Receivables Loan - During the third quarter of 2005 we reached an agreement with Textron to consolidate, amend, and restate all prior receivables loan agreements between our two companies. Under the terms of the new agreement, we entered into a $100 million revolving loan agreement, of which $60 million is currently available, secured by notes receivable from timeshare sales and unsold inventory of timeshare intervals. The additional $40 million under the agreement will not be available unless Textron seeks and finds third party participants, which by agreement with us they are not currently doing. The agreement matures in June 2011 and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 1%, with a 6% floor.

 
·
Inventory Loans - We have two revolving inventory loan facilities in the aggregate amount of $16 million, revolving through June 2008 and due in August 2010, which bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 3.25% and Prime plus 3% with a 6% floor, respectively. We also have a $5 million inventory term loan facility with Textron that is due in March 2007 and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 3% with a 6% floor.

 
·
Conduit Loans - During the fourth quarter of 2003, we closed a $66.4 million conduit term loan transaction through our conduit financing subsidiary, SF-II, which was arranged through Textron. Under the terms of the SF-II conduit loan, we sold approximately $78.1 million of our Vacation Interval receivables to SF-II for an amount equal to the aggregate principal balances of the receivables. Textron financed the purchase of these receivables through a one-time advance to SF-II of $66.4 million, which is approximately 85% of the outstanding balance of the receivables SF-II purchased from us. All customer receivables that we transferred to SF-II have been pledged as security to Textron. Textron has also received as additional collateral a pledge of all of our equity interest in SF-II and a $15.7 million demand note from us to SF-II under which payment may be demanded if SF-II defaults on its loan from the senior lender. Textron's conduit loan to SF-II will mature in 2014 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 7.035%. During the first quarter of 2005, we entered into a $26.3 million amendment and expansion of our conduit term loan agreement with SF-II. Under the terms of the amendment, we sold approximately $31.0 million of notes receivable and received cash proceeds of approximately $26.3 million. The new conduit term loan with SF-II will mature in 2011 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 7.9%.

CapitalSource Facility. During the second quarter of 2005, we entered into a $50 million receivables loan agreement with CapitalSource, which matures in April 2008 and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 0.75%. We also have a $30 million revolving inventory loan facility with CapitalSource, which revolves through April 2009, is due in April 2011, and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 1.5%.

Resort Funding Facility. During the second quarter of 2005, we entered into a $25 million receivables loan agreement with Resort Funding, which revolves through May 2007, matures in May 2010, and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 1.5% with a 6.5% floor. We have not borrowed against this loan facility.

Wells Fargo Foothill Facility. During the fourth quarter of 2005, we entered into a $50 million receivables loan agreement with Wells Fargo Foothill, which was subsequently reduced to $35 million during the fourth quarter of 2006. This facility matures in December 2011 and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 0.5% with a 6% floor. We also have a $15 million revolving inventory loan facility with Wells Fargo Foothill, which revolves through December 2008, matures in December 2010, and bears interest at a rate of Prime plus 2% with a 6% floor.

Silverleaf Finance III Facility. During the third quarter of 2005 we closed a term securitization transaction with a wholly-owned off-balance sheet qualified special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, a Delaware limited liability company, which was formed for the purpose of issuing $108.7 million of its Series 2005-A Notes in a private placement through UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. (“UBS”). The Series 2005-A Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture between Silverleaf, as servicer of the timeshare receivables, SF-III, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Indenture Trustee, Custodian, Backup Servicer, and Account Intermediary. The Series 2005-A Notes were issued by SF-III in four classes ranging from Class A through Class D notes with a blended fixed rate of 5.4%. The Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes have received a rating from Moody's Investor Services, Inc. of “Aaa”, “Aa2”, “A2” and “Baa2”, respectively.

The Series 2005-A Notes are secured by timeshare receivables sold to SF-III by us pursuant to a transfer agreement between SF-III and us. Under that agreement, we sold to SF-III approximately $132.8 million in timeshare receivables that were previously pledged as collateral under revolving credit facilities with our senior lenders and our qualified special purpose entity, SF-I. We dissolved SF-I simultaneously with the sale of timeshare receivables to SF-III. The timeshare receivables we sold to SF-III are without recourse to us, except for breaches of certain representations and warranties at the time of sale. We are responsible for servicing the timeshare receivables purchased by SF-III pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and will receive a fee for our services. Such fees received approximate our internal cost of servicing such receivables, and approximates the fee a third party would receive to service such receivables. As a result, the related net servicing asset or liability was estimated to be insignificant.
 
18


Silverleaf Finance IV Facility. During the first quarter of 2006 we closed a $100 million revolving senior credit facility through a newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. SF-IV was formed for the purpose of issuing a $100 million variable funding note to UBS. During the fourth quarter of 2006 the facility was amended to increase the availability from $100 million to $125 million. The funding period was originally scheduled to end in March 2007 but was extended to December 2008, and the interest rate on advances by UBS to SF-IV was reduced from the initial rate of LIBOR plus 1.5% to LIBOR plus 1.25%. The revised facility will mature in December 2010. The VFN is secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV. Proceeds from the sale of customer notes receivable to SF-IV are used to fund normal business operations and for general working capital purposes. The VFN was issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between SF-IV, UBS, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee. We will service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV under the terms of an agreement with the indenture trustee and SF-IV.

Silverleaf Finance V Facility. In August 2006, we closed a $128 million term securitization transaction through a newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. SF-V was formed for the purpose of issuing approximately $128.0 million of its Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes Series 2006-A (“Series 2006-A Notes”) in a private offering and sale through UBS. The Series 2006-A Notes were issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between ourselves as servicer, SF-V, as issuer, Silverleaf Finance V, LLC, as general partner of SF-V, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee, custodian, backup servicer, and account intermediary. The Series 2006-A Notes were issued in seven classes ranging from Class A through Class G notes with a blended fixed rate of 6.7%. The Class A through Class G notes have been rated Aaa, Aa2, A2, Baa1, Baa2, Baa3, and Ba2 respectively by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and have a final maturity of July 2018.

The Series 2006-A Notes are secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-V by SF-IV and Silverleaf in three separate transactions from August 2006 to November 2006. The original amount of notes receivable purchased by SF-V to secure the Series 2006-A Notes was $155.1 million and the balance of eligible notes receivable pledged as collateral at December 31, 2006 was $132.2 million. The proceeds from the sale of the customer notes receivable to SF-V were primarily used to pay down consolidated indebtedness to senior lenders. All customer notes receivable purchased by SF-V are being acquired without recourse, except in the case of breaches of customary representations and warranties made in connection with the sale of the notes. We will continue to service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-V under the terms of the indenture and will receive a fee for our services.

Senior Subordinated Notes. We have $3.8 million of 6% senior subordinated notes due April 2007, $2.1 million of 10½% senior subordinated notes due April 2008, and $24.7 million of 8% senior subordinated notes due April 2010, with interest payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1. Our payment and performance under these senior subordinated notes has been guaranteed by all of our present and future domestic restricted subsidiaries.

We have $264.3 million available funding under our current debt facilities. At December 31, 2006, the LIBOR rates on our senior credit facilities were 5.32% (1 month) and 5.37% (3 month) and the Prime rate on these facilities was 8.25%.

Financial Covenants Under Senior Credit Facilities.

The Company’s senior credit facilities discussed above provide certain financial covenants that we must satisfy. Any failure to comply with the financial covenants in any single loan agreement will result in a cross default under the various facilities. The financial covenants as they exist at December 31, 2006 are described below.

Tangible Net Worth Covenant. Each of our senior lenders has a somewhat different requirement, the most restrictive being that we must maintain a Tangible Net Worth at all times greater than the Tangible Net Worth as of December 31, 2004, or $132.1 million, plus 50% of the aggregate amount of Consolidated Net Income after December 31, 2004. “Tangible Net Worth” is (i) the consolidated net worth of the Company and our consolidated subsidiaries, plus (ii) to the extent not otherwise included in the such consolidated net worth, unsecured subordinated indebtedness of the Company and our consolidated subsidiaries the terms and conditions of which are reasonably satisfactory to the required banks, minus (iii) the consolidated intangibles of the Company and our consolidated subsidiaries, including, without limitation, goodwill, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, patent applications, licenses and rights in any of the foregoing and other items treated as intangibles in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. “Consolidated Net Income” is the consolidated net income of the Company and our subsidiaries, after deduction of all expenses, taxes, and other proper charges (but excluding any extraordinary profits or losses), determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Marketing and Sales Expenses Covenant. Our ratio of marketing expenses to Vacation Interval sales for the latest rolling 12 months then ended must not equal or exceed 55% as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. Two senior lenders have increased the ratio we are required to stay below to 57% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Minimum Loan Delinquency Covenant. Our over 30-day delinquency rate on our entire consumer loan portfolio may not be greater than 10% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Debt Service Covenant. Our ratio of (i) earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) less capital expenditures as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to (ii) the interest expense minus all non-cash items constituting interest expense for such period, for the latest rolling 12 months then ending must not be less than 1.25 to 1 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Profitable Operations Covenant. Our Consolidated Net Income (i) for any fiscal year must not be less than $1.00, (ii) for any two consecutive fiscal quarters (reviewed on an individual rather than on an aggregate basis) must not be less than $1.00, and (iii) for any rolling 12-month period must not be less than $1.00.

Leverage Ratio Covenant. Our ratio of debt to Tangible Net Worth must not exceed 6.0 to 1 at any time during the term of the loans.

FICO Score Covenant. Our weighted average FICO Credit Bureau Score for all sales to Silverleaf Owners with respect to which a FICO score can be obtained must not be less than 640 for any fiscal calendar quarter.

Our credit facilities also contain covenants including requirements that we (i) preserve and maintain the collateral securing the loans; (ii) pay all taxes and other obligations relating to the collateral; and (iii) refrain from selling or transferring the collateral or permitting any encumbrances on the collateral. The credit agreements also contain restrictive covenants which include (i) restrictions on liens against and dispositions of collateral, (ii) restrictions on distributions to affiliates and prepayments of loans from affiliates, (iii) restrictions on changes in control and management of the Company, (iv) restrictions on sales of substantially all of the assets of the Company, and (v) restrictions on mergers, consolidations, or other reorganizations of the Company. Under certain credit facilities, a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, a merger, consolidation, or reorganization of the Company, or other changes of control of the ownership of the Company, would constitute an event of default and permit the senior lenders to accelerate the maturity of the facility.

As of December 31, 2003 and all periods thereafter, we have been in full compliance with our debt covenants in our credit facilities with all of our senior lenders.

Termination of Silverleaf Finance I Facility

During the fourth quarter of 2000, our qualified special purpose entity, SF-I, entered into a loan and security agreement with Autobahn Funding Company LLC (“Autobahn”), as Lender, DZ Bank, as Agent, and other parties. We serviced receivables that we sold to SF-I under a separate agreement. SF-I pledged the receivables it purchased from us as collateral for funds borrowed from Autobahn. The facility began with a maximum borrowing capacity of $100 million and a scheduled maturity of October 2005. It was subsequently extended to revolve through March 2006 with a final maximum borrowing capacity of $75 million. We dissolved SF-I simultaneously with the sale of our timeshare receivables to SF-III during the third quarter of 2005.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

If our assumptions and estimates in our business model are wrong, our future results could be negatively impacted.

The financial covenants in our credit facilities are based upon a business model prepared by our management. We used a number of assumptions and estimates in preparing the business model, including:

 
·
We estimated that we will sell our existing and planned inventory of Vacation Intervals within 15 years;
 
·
We assumed that our level of sales and operating profits and costs can be maintained and will grow in future periods;
 
·
We assumed the availability of credit facilities necessary to sustain our operations and anticipated growth; and
 
·
We assumed that we can raise the prices on our products and services as market conditions allow.

These assumptions and estimates are subject to significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties. If our assumptions and estimates are wrong, our future financial condition and results of operations may vary significantly from those projected in the business model.

Neither our past nor present independent auditors have reviewed or expressed an opinion about our business model or our ability to achieve it.

Changes in the timeshare industry could affect our operations.

We operate principally within the timeshare industry. Our results of operations and financial condition could be negatively affected by any of the following events:

·
An oversupply of timeshare units,
 
·
A reduction in demand for timeshare units,
 
·
Changes in travel and vacation patterns,
 
·
A decrease in popularity of our resorts with our consumers,
 
·
Governmental regulations or taxation of the timeshare industry, and
 
·
Negative publicity about the timeshare industry.

We may be impacted by general economic conditions.

Our customers may be more vulnerable to deteriorating economic conditions than consumers in the luxury or upscale timeshare markets. An economic slowdown in the United States could depress consumer spending for Vacation Intervals. Additionally, significant increases in the cost of transportation may limit the number of potential customers who travel to our resorts for a sales presentation. During an economic slowdown we could experience increased delinquencies in the payment of Vacation Interval promissory notes and monthly Club dues.

We are at risk for defaults by our customers.

We offer financing to the buyers of Vacation Intervals at our resorts. Notes receivable from timeshare buyers constitute one of our principal assets. These buyers make down payments of at least 10% of the purchase price and deliver promissory notes to us for the balances. The promissory notes generally bear interest at a fixed rate, are payable over a seven-year to ten-year period, and are secured by a first mortgage on the Vacation Interval. We bear the risk of defaults on these promissory notes. Although we prescreen prospects by credit scoring them in the early stages of the marketing and sales process, we generally do not perform a detailed credit history review of our customers, as is the case with most other timeshare developers.
 
21


We recorded 17.3% of the purchase price of Vacation Intervals as estimated uncollectible revenue for the year ended December 31, 2006, which resulted in a decrease in our sales revenue of $32.5 million for the year 2006, in accordance with SFAS 152 which we adopted effective January 1, 2006. When a buyer of a Vacation Interval defaults, we foreclose on the Vacation Interval and attempt to resell it. The associated marketing, selling, and administrative costs from the original sale are not recovered; and we will incur such costs again when we resell the Vacation Interval. Although we may have recourse against a Vacation Interval buyer for the unpaid price, certain states have laws that limit our ability to recover personal judgments against customers who have defaulted on their loans. For example, if we were to file a lawsuit to collect the balance owed to us by a customer in Texas (where approximately 61% of Vacation Interval sales took place in 2006), the customer could file a court proceeding to determine the fair market value of the property foreclosed upon. In such event, we may not recover a personal judgment against the customer for the full amount of the deficiency. We would only recover an amount that the indebtedness owed to us exceeds the fair market value of the property. Accordingly, we have generally not pursued this remedy.

At December 31, 2006, we had Vacation Interval customer notes receivable in the approximate principal amount of $297.4 million, and had an allowance for uncollectible notes of approximately $68.1 million. We cannot be certain that this allowance is adequate.

We must borrow funds to finance our operations.

Our business is dependent on our ability to finance customer notes receivable through our banks. At December 31, 2006, we either directly or through our fully consolidated finance subsidiaries owed approximately $245.2 million of principal to our senior lenders.

Borrowing Base. We have receivable-based loan agreements with senior lenders to borrow up to approximately $447.4 million. We pledged our customer promissory notes and mortgages as security under these agreements. Our senior lenders typically lend us 75% to 80% of the principal amount of our customers' notes, and payments from Silverleaf Owners on such notes are credited directly to the senior lender and applied against our loan balance. At December 31, 2006, we had a portfolio of approximately 36,104 Vacation Interval customer notes receivable in the approximate principal amount of $297.4 million. Approximately $4.7 million in principal amount of our customers' notes were 61 days or more past due and, therefore, ineligible as collateral. The amount of customer notes receivable eligible as collateral in the future may not be sufficient to support the borrowings we may require for our liquidity and continued growth.

Negative Cash Flow. We ordinarily receive only 10% to 15% of the purchase price as a down payment on the sale of a Vacation Interval, but we must pay in full the costs of development, marketing, and sale of the interval. Maximum borrowings available under our credit facilities may not be sufficient to cover these costs, thereby straining our capital resources, liquidity, and capacity to grow.

Interest Rate Mismatch. At December 31, 2006, our portfolio of customer loans had a weighted average fixed interest rate of 15.7%. At such date, our borrowings (which bear interest predominantly at variable rates) against the portfolio had a weighted average cost of funds of 7.9%. We have historically derived net interest income from our operating activities because the interest rates we charge our customers who finance the purchase of their Vacation Intervals exceed the interest rates we pay to our senior lenders. Because 38% of our existing indebtedness currently bears interest at variable rates and our customer notes receivable bear interest at fixed rates, increases in interest rates charged by our senior lenders would erode the spread in interest rates that we have historically enjoyed and could cause the interest expense on our borrowings to exceed our interest income on our portfolio of customer notes receivable. Therefore, any increase in interest rates, particularly if sustained, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition. To the extent interest rates decrease on loans available to our customers, we face an increased risk that customers will pre-pay their loans, which would reduce our income from operating activities.

To partially offset an increase in interest rates, we have engaged in two interest rate hedging transactions, or derivatives, related to our conduit loan with Silverleaf Finance II, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for a notional amount of $39.3 million at December 31, 2006, that expires between September 2011 and March 2014. Our VFN with SF-IV also acts as an interest rate hedge since it contains a provision for an interest rate cap, however there are no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 2006.

In addition, the Series 2005-A Notes related to our off-balance sheet special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, with a balance of $52.3 million at December 31, 2006, bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 5.4%, and our Series 2006-A Notes related to SF-V bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 6.7%.
 
22


Maturity Mismatch. We typically provide financing to our customers over a seven-year to ten-year period. Our customer notes had an average maturity of 6.75 years at December 31, 2006. Our senior credit facilities have scheduled maturity dates between April 2008 and July 2018. Additionally, should our revolving credit facilities be declared in default, the amount outstanding could be declared to be immediately due and payable. Accordingly, there could be a mismatch between our anticipated cash receipts and cash disbursements in 2007 and subsequent periods. Although we have historically been able to secure financing sufficient to fund our operations, we do not presently have agreements with our senior lenders to extend the term of our existing funding commitments beyond their scheduled maturity dates or to replace such commitments upon their expiration, with the exception of our debt with Textron Financial Corporation, noted directly below. If we are unable to refinance our existing loans, we could be required to sell our portfolio of customer notes receivable, probably at a substantial discount, or to seek other alternatives to enable us to continue in business. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain required financing in the future.

In the first quarter of 2007, we consolidated our debt with Textron Financial Corporation into one revolving loan. As a result of the amended and restated loan and security agreement, the funding period on the consolidated debt has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010, with revised maturity dates of January 31, 2013 for the receivables component and January 31, 2012 on both the acquisition and inventory components. In addition, the interest rates previously charged have been reduced. This transaction is described in more detail under the heading “Subsequent Events” in Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

Impact on Sales. Limitations on the availability of financing would inhibit sales of Vacation Intervals due to (i) the lack of funds to finance the initial negative cash flow that results from sales that we finance and (ii) reduced demand if we are unable to provide financing to purchasers of Vacation Intervals.

We may not be able to obtain additional financing.

Several unpredictable factors may cause our adjusted EBITDA to be insufficient to meet debt service requirements or satisfy financial covenants. We incurred net losses in one of the past five years. Should we record net losses in future periods, our cash flow and our ability to obtain additional financing could be materially and adversely impacted.

Many of the factors that will determine whether or not we generate sufficient EBITDA to meet current or future debt service requirements and satisfy financial covenants are inherently difficult to predict. These factors include:

·    the number of sales of Vacation Intervals;
 
·    the average purchase price per interval;
 
·    the number of customer defaults;
 
·    our cost of borrowing;
 
·    our sales and marketing costs and other operating expenses; and
 
·    the continued sale of notes receivable.

Our current and planned expenses and debt repayment levels are and will be to a large extent fixed in the short term, and are based in part on past expectations as to future revenues and cash flows. We may be unable to reduce spending in a timely manner to compensate for any past or future revenue or cash flow shortfall. It is possible that our revenue, cash flow or operating results may not meet the expectations of our business model, and may even result in our being unable to meet the debt repayment schedules or financial covenants contained in the various agreements which evidence our indebtedness.

Our leverage is significant and may impair our ability to obtain additional financing, reduce the amount of cash available for operations, and make us more vulnerable to financial downturns.

Our agreements with our various lenders may:

·
require a substantial portion of our cash flow to be used to pay interest expense and principal;
 
·
impair our ability to obtain on acceptable terms, if at all, additional financing that might be necessary for working capital, capital expenditures or other purposes; and
 
·
limit our ability to further refinance or amend the terms of our existing debt obligations, if necessary or advisable.

We may not be able to manage our financial leverage as we intend, and we may not be able to achieve an appropriate balance between the rate of growth which we consider acceptable and future reductions in financial leverage. If we are not able to achieve growth in adjusted EBITDA, we may not be able to refinance our existing debt obligations and we may be precluded from incurring additional indebtedness due to cash flow coverage requirements under existing or future debt instruments.
 
23


Our business is highly regulated.

We are subject to substantial governmental regulation in the conduct of our business. See “Item 1. Business - Governmental Regulation, Environmental Matters, Utility Regulation, Other Regulation, and Item 3. Legal Proceedings.” If we are found to have violated any statute, rule, or regulation applicable to us, our assets, or our business, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

We are dependent on our key personnel.

The loss of the services of the key members of management or our inability to hire when needed, retain, and integrate needed new or replacement management and employees could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition in future periods.

We will incur costs at our resorts for additional development and construction activities.

We intend to continue to develop our Existing Resorts. We also intend to acquire or develop additional timeshare resorts; however, continued development of our resorts places substantial demands on our liquidity and capital resources, as well as on our personnel and administrative capabilities. Risks associated with our development and construction activities include:

·
construction costs or delays at a property may exceed original estimates which could make the development uneconomical or unprofitable; 
 
·
sales of Vacation Intervals at a newly completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable; and 
 
·
financing may not be available on favorable terms for development of or the continued sales of Vacation Intervals at a property.

We cannot be certain that we will have the liquidity and capital resources to develop and expand our resorts as we presently intend.

Our development and construction activities, as well as our ownership and management of real estate, are subject to comprehensive federal, state, and local laws regulating such matters as environmental and health concerns, protection of endangered species, water supplies, zoning, land development, land use, building design and construction, marketing and sales, and other matters. Our failure to maintain the requisite licenses, permits, allocations, authorizations, and other entitlements pursuant to such laws could impact the development, completion, and sale of Vacation Intervals at our resorts. The enactment of “slow growth” or “no-growth” initiatives or changes in labor or other laws in any area where our resorts are located could also delay, affect the cost or feasibility of, or preclude entirely the expansion planned at one or more of our resorts.

Most of our resorts are located in rustic areas; which in the past have often required us to provide public utility water and sanitation services in order to proceed with development. This development is subject to permission and regulation by governmental agencies, the denial or conditioning of which could limit or preclude development. Although we are not currently operating any such utilities, if future development requires that we do, we would be subject to risk of liability in connection with both the quality of fresh water provided and the treatment and discharge of waste-water.

In March 2005, we sold the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our resorts located in Texas, Illinois and Missouri. The purchasers of those assets entered into separate services agreements to provide uninterrupted water supply and waste water treatment services to the eight resorts and to maintain the utilities assets. The purchasers have also agreed to provide sufficient future capital additions at each resort as will be required to provide at least the same level of utility services to the resort as is currently provided. Failure by the purchasers of these utility assets to supply service to the resorts or to adequately maintain and expand when required the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets could impact our ability to provide the utilities necessary to operate the resorts or to expand them, either of which could have a material effect on our results of operation.

We must incur costs to comply with laws governing accessibility of facilities to disabled persons.

We are subject to a number of state and federal laws, including the Fair Housing Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), that impose requirements related to access and use by disabled persons of a variety of public accommodations and facilities. The ADA requirements did not become effective until after January 1, 1991. Although we believe our Existing Resorts are substantially in compliance with these laws, we will incur additional costs to fully comply with these laws. Additional federal, state, and local legislation may impose further restrictions or requirements on us with respect to access by disabled persons. The ultimate cost of compliance with such legislation is not currently known, however such costs are not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.
 
24


We may be vulnerable to regional conditions.

Our performance and the value of our properties are affected by regional factors, including local economic conditions (which may be adversely impacted by business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics, and other factors) and the local regulatory climate. Our current geographic concentration could make us more susceptible to adverse events or conditions that affect these areas in particular. At December 31, 2006, 54% of our owners lived in Texas, 15% lived in Illinois, 8% lived in Massachusetts, and 4% lived in Missouri. Our remaining customer base lives primarily in other states within the United States of America.

We may be liable for environmental claims.
 
Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, as well as common law, the owner or operator of real property generally is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances located on, in, or emanating from, such property, as well as related costs of investigation and property damage. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was 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 the owner's ability to sell or lease a property or to borrow money using such 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 these and other environmental, health, or safety requirements may result in the need to cease or alter operations at a property. Further, the owner or operator of a site 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 the site. Phase I environmental reports (which typically involve inspection without soil sampling or ground water analysis) were prepared in 2001 or later by independent environmental consultants for all of the Existing Resorts. The reports did not reveal, nor are we aware of, any environmental liability that would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition. We cannot be certain that the Phase I reports revealed all environmental liabilities or that no prior owner created any material environmental condition not known to us.

Certain environmental laws impose liability on a previous owner of property to the extent hazardous or toxic substances were present during the prior ownership period. A transfer of the property may not relieve an owner of such liability. Thus, we may have liability with respect to properties previously sold by us or by our predecessors.

We believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state, and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. We have not been notified by any governmental authority or third party of any non-compliance, liability, or other claim in connection with any of our present or former properties.

Our sales could decline if our resorts do not qualify for participation in an exchange network.
 
The attractiveness of Vacation Interval ownership is enhanced by the availability of exchange networks that allow Silverleaf Owners to exchange in a particular year the occupancy right in their Vacation Interval for an occupancy right in another participating network resort. According to ARDA, the ability to exchange Vacation Intervals was cited by many buyers as an important reason for purchasing a Vacation Interval. Several companies, including RCI, provide broad-based Vacation Interval exchange services, and as of December 31, 2006, the Existing Resorts are qualified for participation in the RCI exchange network (except for Orlando Breeze, which is qualified through Interval International, a competitor of RCI). We cannot be certain that we will be able to continue to qualify the Existing Resorts or any future resorts for participation in these networks or any other exchange network. If such exchange networks cease to function effectively, or if our resorts are not accepted as exchanges for other desirable resorts, our sales of Vacation Intervals could decline.

Our sales would be affected by a secondary market for Vacation Intervals.

We believe the market for resale of Vacation Intervals is very limited and that resale prices are substantially below the original purchase price of a Vacation Interval. This may make ownership of Vacation Intervals less attractive to prospective buyers. Owners of Vacation Intervals who wish to sell their Vacation Interval compete with our sales. Vacation Interval resale clearing houses and brokers, including Internet-based clearinghouses, do not currently have a material impact on our sales. However, if the secondary market for Vacation Intervals becomes more organized and liquid, whether through Internet-based clearinghouses and brokers or other means, the availability of resale intervals at lower prices could materially adversely affect our prices and our ability to sell new Vacation Intervals.
 
25


Our sales are seasonal in nature.

Our sales of Vacation Intervals have generally been lower in the months of November and December. Cash flow and earnings may be impacted by the timing of development, the completion of future resorts, and the potential impact of weather or other conditions in the regions where we operate. Our operating results could be negatively impacted by these factors.

We are not insured for certain types of losses.

We do not insure certain types of losses (such as losses arising from floods and acts of war) either because insurance is unavailable or unaffordable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could be required to repair damage at our expense or lose our capital invested in a resort, as well as the anticipated future revenues from such resort. We would continue to be obligated on any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. Our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition could be adversely affected by such losses.

We will continue to be leveraged.
 
Our ability to finance customer notes receivable and develop our resorts is dependent upon borrowed funds, which would be collateralized by certain of our assets. In addition, our loan agreements contain financial covenants that must be complied with in order to continue to borrow additional funds. Failure to comply with such covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition. Future loan agreements would likely contain similar restrictions.

The indentures pertaining to our 6% and 8% senior subordinated notes permit us to incur certain additional indebtedness, including indebtedness secured by our customer notes receivable. Accordingly, to the extent our customer notes receivable increase and we have sufficient credit facilities available, we may be able to borrow additional funds. The indentures pertaining to our 6% and 8% senior subordinated notes also permit us to borrow additional funds in order to finance development of our resorts. Future construction loans will likely result in liens against the respective properties.

Common Stock could be impacted by our indebtedness.

The level of our indebtedness could negatively impact holders of our Common Stock, because:

 
·
a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations must be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness;
 
 
·
our ability to obtain additional debt financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures or acquisitions may be limited;
 
·
our level of indebtedness could limit our flexibility in reacting to changes in the industry and economic conditions generally;
 
 
·
negative covenants in our loan agreements may limit our management’s ability to operate our business in the best interests of our shareholders;
 
 
·
some of our loans are at variable rates of interest, and a substantial increase in interest rates could adversely affect our ability to meet debt service obligations; and
 
·
increased interest expense will reduce earnings, if any.

We could lose the right to manage the Clubs.

Each Existing Resort has a Club that operates through a centralized organization called Silverleaf Club, to manage most of our Existing Resorts on a collective basis, except for Orlando Breeze, which has its own Club. The consolidation of operations at most of our Existing Resorts through Silverleaf Club permits:

 
·
a centralized reservation system for all resorts;
 
 
·
substantial cost savings by purchasing goods and services for all resorts on a group basis, which generally results in a lower cost of goods and services than if such goods and services were purchased by each resort on an individual basis;
 
 
·
centralized management for the entire resort system;
 
 
·
centralized legal, accounting, and administrative services for the entire resort system; and
 
 
·
uniform implementation of various rules and regulations governing all resorts.

26

 
We currently have the right to unilaterally appoint the board of directors or governors of the Clubs until the respective control periods have expired (typically triggered by the cessation of sales of the planned development), unless otherwise provided by the bylaws of the association or under applicable law. Thereafter, the bylaws of certain of the Clubs require that a majority of the members of the board of directors or governors of those Clubs be owners of Vacation Intervals of those resorts. The loss of control of the board of directors or governors of the Clubs could result in our being unable to unilaterally cause the renewal of the Management Agreement with the Silverleaf Club when it expires in 2010. This could result in a loss of revenue and have other materially adverse effects on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

We could issue Preferred Stock that would have rights and preferences senior to Common Stock.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series and to establish the preferences and rights (including the right to vote and the right to convert into Common Stock) of any series of Preferred Stock issued. Such preferences and rights would likely grant to the holders of the Preferred Stock certain preferences in right of payment upon a dissolution of the Company and the liquidation of our assets that would not be available to the holders of our Common Stock. To the extent that our credit facilities would permit, the Board could also establish a dividend payable to the holders of the Preferred Stock that would not be available to the holders of the Common Stock.

Our cash flow may not be adequate upon an acceleration of deferred taxes.

While we report sales of Vacation Intervals as income for financial reporting purposes at the time of the sale after receiving a 10% to 15% down payment, for federal income tax purposes, we report substantially all Vacation Interval sales on the installment method. Under the installment method, we recognize income for regular federal income tax purposes on the sale of Vacation Intervals when cash is received in the form of a down payment and as payments on customer loans are received. Our liability for deferred taxes (i.e., taxes owed to taxing authorities in the future in consequence of income previously reported in the financial statements) was $88.7 million at December 31, 2006, primarily attributable to this method of reporting Vacation Interval sales, before utilization of any available deferred tax benefits (up to $71.0 million at December 31, 2006), including net operating loss carryforwards, limitations on the use of which are discussed below. These amounts do not include accrued interest on the deferred taxes, which will be payable if the deferred taxes become payable, the amount of which is not now reasonably ascertainable. If we should sell the installment notes or be required to factor them or if the notes were foreclosed on by one of our senior lenders or otherwise disposed of, the deferred gain would be reportable for regular federal tax purposes and the deferred taxes, including interest on the taxes for the period the taxes were deferred, as computed under Section 453 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), would become due. We cannot be certain that we would have sufficient cash resources to pay those taxes and interest nor can we be certain how the payment of such taxes may affect our operational liquidity needs. Furthermore, if our sales of Vacation Intervals should decrease in the future, our diminished operations may not generate either sufficient tax losses to offset taxable income or funds to pay the deferred tax liability from prior periods.
 
We will be subject to Alternative Minimum Taxes.

For purposes of computing the 20% alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) imposed under Section 55 of the Code on our alternative minimum taxable income (“AMTI”), the installment sale method is generally not allowed. The Code requires an adjustment to our AMTI for a portion of our adjusted current earnings (“ACE”). Our ACE must be computed without application of the installment sale method. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will pay significant AMT in future years. Section 53 of the Code does provide that we will be allowed a credit (“minimum tax credit”) against our regular federal income tax liability for all or a portion of any AMT previously paid.

Due to losses incurred in 2000 and 2001, we received refunds of AMT totaling $8.3 million during 2001 and $1.6 million during 2002 as a result of the carryback of our 2000 and 2001 AMT losses to 1999, 1998, and 1997. For 2006, we estimate our AMT liability is approximately $7.2 million, with the result that we will have total AMT credit carryforwards of approximately $8.5 million as of December 31, 2006.

Due to the exchange offer described under the next heading, an ownership change, within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Code occurred. Under Section 383, the amount of the excess credits which exist as of the date of an ownership change can be used to offset tax liability for post-change years only to the extent of the Section 383 Credit Limitation, which amount is defined as the tax liability which is attributable to so much of the taxable income as does not exceed the Section 382 limitation for such post-change year to the extent available after the application of various adjustments. As a result of the above-described refunds of previously paid AMT, there is no minimum tax credit that is subject to Section 383 of the Code as a result of our ownership change. If it is subsequently determined that we have an AMT liability for prior years, and thus a minimum tax credit as of the time of the exchange offer, or if additional “ownership changes” within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Code occur in the future, we cannot be certain that such ownership changes will not result in a limitation on the use of any such minimum tax credit. See the discussion under the next heading regarding possible future ownership changes.

27

 
Our use of net operating loss carryforwards could be limited by an ownership change.
 
We had net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $162.4 million at December 31, 2006, for regular federal income tax purposes, related primarily to the immediate deduction of expenses and the simultaneous deferral of installment sale gains. In addition to the general limitations on the carryback and carryforward of NOLs under Section 172 of the Code, Section 382 of the Code imposes additional limitations on the utilization of NOLs by a corporation following various types of ownership changes which result in more than a 50 percentage point change in ownership of a corporation within a three year period.

Our completion in 2002 of our exchange offer with certain holders of our senior subordinated notes resulted in an ownership change within Section 382(g) as of May 2, 2002 (the “change date”). As a result, the future utilization of approximately $36.2 million of our NOL as of December 31, 2006, is subject to limitation for regular federal income tax purposes. There is an annual limitation of approximately $768,000, which was the value of our stock immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the applicable long term tax exempt rate. However, that annual limitation may be increased for any recognized built in gain, which existed as of the change date to the extent allowed in Section 382 of the Code. We believe that the built in gain associated with the installment sale gains as of the change date increases the annual limitation and will allow the utilization of most of the $36.2 million portion of our NOL as needed. Nevertheless, we cannot be certain that the limitations of Section 382 will not limit or deny our future utilization of the $36.2 million portion of our NOL. Such limitation or denial could require us to pay substantial additional federal and state taxes and interest.

Moreover, we cannot be certain that future ownership changes will not limit or deny our future utilization of all of our NOL. The more than 50 percentage point test for a change in ownership is based on a three year lookback and will be determined for the three years commencing May 26, 2006, by including the 8,000,000 shares sold by two of our principal shareholders on that date, which resulted in an approximately 21.3 percentage point change in ownership based on the shares outstanding on that date. Therefore, that change in ownership, when combined with other changes before and after that date, could result in another more than 50 percentage point change in ownership in the future.

If we cannot utilize our NOL, we will be required to pay substantial additional federal and state taxes and interest. Such tax and interest liabilities may adversely affect our liquidity.

We could be liable for back payroll taxes if our independent contractors are reclassified as employees.

Although we treat all on-site sales personnel as employees for payroll tax purposes, we do have independent contractor agreements with certain sales and marketing persons or entities. We have not treated these independent contractors as employees and do not withhold payroll taxes from the amounts paid to such persons or entities. In the event the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority were to successfully classify such persons or entities as employees, rather than as independent contractors, we could be liable for back payroll taxes. This could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

We could be negatively impacted by National and state Do Not Call Lists.

We rely heavily on telemarketing activities to arrange tours of our resorts to potential customers. On July 3, 2003, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) released new rules and regulations promulgated under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, which could have a negative impact on our telemarketing activities. The FCC has implemented, in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), a National Do Not Call Registry, which applies to both interstate and intrastate commercial telemarketing calls. The FTC has reported that approximately 107 million telephone numbers had been registered on the National Do Not Call Registry by the end of 2005. This could sharply limit the number of contacts we will be able to make through our telemarketing activities. We will continue to telemarket to individuals who do not place their telephone numbers on a do-not-call list and those with whom we have an established business relationship. Our use of autodialers to call potential customers in our database could also be restricted by new call abandonment standards specified in the FCC rules and regulations. We cannot currently determine the impact that these new regulations could have on our sales; however, the large number of telephone numbers registered on the National Do Not Call Registry and the restrictions on our use of autodialers could negatively affect our sales and marketing efforts and require us to use less effective, more expensive alternative marketing methods. The new rules became effective on October 1, 2003 and we have experienced a decline in the number of telemarketing calls we are able to complete as a result of the changes in the rules relating to the use of automatic dialers. All companies involved in telemarketing expect some negative impact to their businesses as a result of the do-not-call rules and other federal and state legislation, which seeks to protect the privacy of consumers from various types of marketing solicitations. Because of our historical dependence on telemarketing, we believe that these changes in the law will continue to have a material impact on our operations and will require us to modify our historical marketing practices in order to both remain compliant with the law and to achieve the levels of resort tours by consumers which are necessary for our profitable operation. We will continue to assess both the rules' impact on operations and alternative methods of marketing, such as direct mail, that are not impacted by the new rules. In addition to the National Do Not Call List, various states have implemented Do Not Call legislation that also may affect our business.

The substantially increased costs of our compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404, may adversely affect our available cash, our management team’s attention to our core business, and the price of our stock.

We are not yet required to fully comply with the internal control reporting provisions of §404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the SEC to implement §404. Unless extended further by the SEC, companies of our size (i.e., non-accelerated filers) are required to be in full compliance with §404 for fiscal years ending on or after July 15, 2007. If we become subject to §404, we will be required to furnish a report by our management to include in our Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The report would include, among other things, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our fiscal year, including a statement as to whether or not our internal control over financial reporting is effective. This assessment must include disclosure of any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified by management. Section 404 would also require our auditors to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control. In an effort to be prepared to comply with the requirements of §404, we have taken steps over the last several years to increase the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. These internal control enhancements have resulted in substantially increased costs to us. Our management also regularly evaluates the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting. While we currently believe our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting which are in place are effective and properly documented, we may find it necessary to continue to incur substantially increased costs in future periods to further enhance our internal controls over financial reporting. There can be no assurance that our continuing assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting will not result in increased costs of compliance which may adversely affect our available cash, our management team’s attention to our core business, and our stock price.

The market trading price of our Common Stock has been and is likely to continue to be volatile.

The market trading price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be subject to significant fluctuations. For example, the closing market trading price for our common stock has fluctuated over the past two years from a low of $1.20 to a high of $5.00. Because of our stock’s history of trading volatility, we believe that significant market fluctuations are likely to continue in future periods.
 
The trading market for our Common Stock may be limited.

Approximately 45% of our shares are held by non-affiliates and there has historically been a low and inconsistent trading volume for our shares. For example, the average daily trading volume for our shares for the two-month period ended February 28, 2007 was approximately 79,000 shares. There can be no assurance that an active and steady trading market, which is not subject to extreme fluctuations, will develop for our shares.

Sales of Common Stock by existing shareholders, including officers or directors, may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

Approximately 55% of our common stock is held by affiliates, including our officers and directors. Volume sales of stock by these affiliates in the trading market coupled with the historically low daily trading volume for our common stock may materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may fail to meet the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market.

Effective as of February 28, 2007, we began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market and ceased trading on AMEX. However, due to the historic volatility of the market trading price of our common stock, there can be no assurance that we will continue to meet the requirements for continued listing on NASDAQ. Our failure to comply with NASDAQ listing standards could result in the delisting of our common stock by NASDAQ, thereby limiting the ability of our shareholders to sell our common stock. 

29


Certain of our existing shareholders have the ability to exert a significant amount of control over the Company.

As of December 31, 2006, Robert E. Mead, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, beneficially owned approximately 24.7% of our outstanding common stock and one related entity, Grace Brothers, Ltd. (“Grace”), beneficially owned 16.2% of our common stock.  As a result, these individuals and entities are able to exert significant influence over the Company and its activities, including the nomination, election and removal of our board of directors, the adoption of amendments to our charter documents, and the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our shareholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

Mr. Mead's interests and Grace's interest may conflict with the interests of other holders of our common stock and they may take actions affecting us with which other shareholders may disagree. For example, if they determined to act in concert, Grace and Mr. Mead may decide not to enter into a transaction in which our shareholders would receive consideration for their shares that is much higher than the cost of their investment in our common stock, or than the then current market price of our common stock.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our principal executive office, located in Dallas, Texas, is approximately 66,000 square feet of leased space. We also maintain two leased telemarketing centers in the Dallas area. Our sales are conducted primarily through sales centers located at our various resorts and a leased off-site sales center in Irving, Texas, which opened in March 2006.

At December 31, 2006, we owned a total of 13 timeshare resorts. Each of these resorts was encumbered by various liens and security agreements at December 31, 2006 due to inventory from each resort being pledged as collateral under our inventory credit facilities with our senior lenders. See Note 8 - Debt, in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a further description of these credit facilities. Principal developmental activity which occurred at our Existing Resorts during 2006 and future plans are summarized below.

Continued Development of The Villages Resort. The Villages Resort, located approximately 100 miles east of Dallas, Texas, has 346 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 84 additional units (4,368 Vacation Intervals) at this resort in the future. During 2006 we did not add any new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Piney Shores Resort. Piney Shores Resort, located near Conroe, Texas, north of Houston, has 190 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 102 additional units (5,304 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 12 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Timber Creek Resort. Timber Creek Resort, located in Desoto, Missouri, has 72 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 24 additional units (1,248 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we did not add any new units at this resort.

30

 
Continued Development of Fox River Resort. Fox River Resort, located 70 miles southwest of Chicago, in Sheridan, Illinois, has 228 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 222 additional units (11,544 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 6 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Apple Mountain Resort. Apple Mountain Resort, located approximately 125 miles north of Atlanta, Georgia, has 72 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 144 additional units (7,488 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we did not add any new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Ozark Mountain Resort. Ozark Mountain Resort, located approximately 15 miles from Branson, Missouri, has 148 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 12 additional units (624 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 12 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Holiday Hills Resort. Holiday Hills Resort, located two miles east of Branson, Missouri, in Taney County, has 446 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 456 additional units (23,712 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 24 units at this resort. In addition, in December 2005 we acquired approximately 81 acres of land near this resort that we intend to newly develop in the future.

Continued Development of Hill Country Resort. Hill Country Resort, located near Canyon Lake in the hill country of central Texas between Austin and San Antonio, has 302 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 210 additional units (10,920 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 12 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Oak N' Spruce Resort. Oak N’ Spruce Resort, located 134 miles west of Boston, Massachusetts, has 308 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 42 additional units (2,184 Vacation Intervals) at this resort in the future. During 2006, we added 24 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Silverleaf’s Seaside Resort. Silverleaf’s Seaside Resort, located in Galveston, Texas, has 120 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 288 additional units (14,976 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we added 24 new units at this resort.

Continued Development of Orlando Breeze Resort. Orlando Breeze Resort, located in Davenport, Florida, just outside Orlando, Florida, has 48 existing units. We intend to develop approximately 24 additional units (1,248 Vacation Intervals) at this resort. During 2006, we did not add any new units at this resort. On January 4, 2006, we purchased an additional 30 acres contiguous to the Orlando Breeze Resort. We have not yet finalized plans for development of this property.

As of December 31, 2006, we had construction commitments of approximately $21.8 million.

Pinnacle Lodge. In April 2006 we purchased Pinnacle Lodge, a 64 room hotel property located near the Winter Park recreational area in Colorado which provides our owners with another destination vacation alternative and gives Silverleaf an entry point into this increasingly popular destination area.

In December 1998, we purchased 1,940 acres of undeveloped land near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for approximately $1.9 million. The property was intended to be developed as a Getaway Resort (i.e., Beech Mountain Resort). We received regulatory approval to develop 408 units (21,216 Vacation Intervals), but we did not schedule dates for construction, completion of initial units, or commencement of marketing and sales efforts. In 2003, we determined that we would not develop this property as initially planned. In 2005, we sold this property for an aggregate sales price of $6.1 million after related expenses, which resulted in a gain of $3.6 million.

We also own a 500-acre tract of land in the Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts that we are in the initial stages of developing. We have not yet finalized our future development plans for this site; however, we believe that its proximity to major population centers in the Northeastern United States and the year-round outdoor recreational attractions in the Berkshire region make this property suitable for future development as a timeshare resort.

Future Growth Strategy

Our future growth strategy is to conservatively increase annual revenues through a combination of:

·
continuing to develop new or existing resorts;
 
·
maintaining marketing, sales, and development activities at those resorts in accordance with our current business model;
 
31

 
 
·
concentrating on marketing to existing members, including sales of upgraded Vacation Intervals, additional week sales, and existing owner referral programs;
 
 
·
adding other assets and amenities to attract our customers by enhancing vacation experiences;
 
·
opening new off-site sales centers in major metropolitan areas; and
 
 
·
emphasizing our secondary products, such as biennial (alternate year) intervals, to broaden our potential market with a wider price range of products for first time buyers.

Competitive Advantages

We believe our business affords us the following competitive advantages:

Convenient Getaway Locations. Our Getaway Resorts are located within a two-hour drive of a majority of our target customers' residences, which accommodates what we believe to be the growing demand for shorter, more frequent, close-to-home vacations. This proximity of our customer base to our resorts facilitates use of our Bonus Time program, allowing Silverleaf Owners to use vacant units, subject to availability and certain limitations. We believe we are the only timeshare operator that offers customers these expanded use benefits. Silverleaf Owners can also conveniently drive to and enjoy non-lodging resort amenities at our resorts year-round on a day use “country-club” type basis.

Substantial Internal Growth Capacity. At December 31, 2006, we had an inventory of 28,801 Vacation Intervals and a master plan to construct new units which will result in up to 83,616 additional Vacation Intervals at our Existing Resorts. Our master plan for construction of new units is contingent upon future sales at our Existing Resorts and the availability of financing, granting of governmental permits, and future land-planning and site-layout considerations.

In-House Operations. We have in-house marketing, sales, financing, development, and property management capabilities. While we utilize outside contractors to supplement internal resources, our internal capabilities provide greater control over all phases of our operations, help maintain operating standards, and reduce overall costs.

Lower Construction and Operating Costs. We have developed and generally employ standard architectural designs and operating procedures, which we believe significantly reduce construction and operating expenses. Standardization and integration also allow us to rapidly develop new inventory in response to demand. Weather permitting, new units at Existing Resorts can normally be constructed on an “as needed” basis within 180 to 270 days.

Centralized Property Management Supervision. We presently supervise the operation of all of our Existing Resorts (except for Orlando Breeze) on an integrated, centralized, and collective basis through our Management Agreement with Silverleaf Club with operating and maintenance costs paid from Silverleaf Owners' monthly dues. While our Orlando Breeze resort in Florida has its own separate Club (Orlando Breeze Resort Club) we also provide centralized supervision of its operations under the terms of a written agreement, to ensure the quality of services provided to Orlando Breeze timeshare owners. We believe that consolidation of resort operations benefits Silverleaf Owners by providing them with a uniform level of service, accommodations, and amenities on a standardized, cost-effective basis. Integration also facilitates our internal exchange program and the Bonus Time program.

Experienced Management. Our senior management has extensive experience in the acquisition, development, marketing, sales, and operation of timeshare resorts. The senior officers have an average of seventeen years of experience in the timeshare industry.

These totals do not reflect sales of upgraded Vacation Intervals to existing Silverleaf Owners. In this context, a sale of an “upgraded Vacation Interval” refers to an exchange of a lower priced interval for a higher priced interval in which the Silverleaf Owner is given credit for all principal payments previously made toward the purchase of the lower priced interval. For the year ended December 31, 2006, upgrade sales at the Existing Resorts were as follows:

Features Common to Existing Resorts

Getaway Resorts are primarily located in rustic areas offering Silverleaf Owners a quiet, relaxing vacation environment. Furthermore, the resorts offer different vacation activities, including golf, fishing, boating, swimming, horseback riding, tennis, and archery. Destination Resorts are located in or near areas with national tourist appeal. Features common to the Existing Resorts include the following:

Bonus Time Program. Silverleaf Club’s Bonus Time program offers Silverleaf Owners a benefit not typically enjoyed by other timeshare owners. In addition to the right to use a unit one week per year, the Bonus Time program allows all Silverleaf Owners, who are current on their dues and installment payments, to use vacant units for up to three nights at a time at any of our owned resorts. Sunday through Thursday night stays are currently without charge, while Friday through Saturday stays presently cost $49.95 per night payable to Silverleaf Club. The Bonus Time program is limited based on the availability of units. Availability is created when a Silverleaf Owner does not use his or her owned week. Silverleaf Owners who have utilized the resort less frequently are given priority to use the program and may only use an interval with an equal or lower rating than their owned Vacation Interval. We believe this program is important as many vacationers prefer shorter two to three day vacations. Owners of unused intervals that are utilized by the Bonus Time program are not compensated other than by their participation in the Bonus Time program.

Silverleaf Plus Program. In February 2006, we began offering the new Silverleaf Plus program. This program, administered through Silverleaf Club, includes all of the prior benefits to Silverleaf Owners plus enhanced vacation options through the Silverleaf exchange program. In addition to use of their owned weeks and bonus time, Silverleaf Owners who purchase under the Silverleaf Plus program can also split their weeks into a minimum of 2-day up to 5-day increments, and extend any unused days into the following year.

Year-Round Use of Amenities. Even when not using the lodging facilities, Silverleaf Owners have unlimited year-round day usage of the amenities located at the Existing Resorts, such as boating, fishing, miniature golf, tennis, swimming, or hiking, for little or no additional cost. Certain amenities, however, such as golf, horseback riding, or watercraft rentals, may require a usage fee.

Exchange Privileges. Each Silverleaf Owner has certain exchange privileges through the Silverleaf Club which may be used on an annual basis to (i) exchange an interval for a different interval (week) at the same resort so long as the desired interval is of an equal or lower rating; or (ii) exchange an interval for the same interval (week) of equal or lower rating at any other of our Existing Resorts. Silverleaf Owners of Getaway Resorts can only exchange for an interval in a Getaway Resort unless they own a “Presidents” or “Chairmans” Vacation Interval. These exchange rights are a convenience we provide Silverleaf Owners as an accommodation to them, and are conditioned upon availability of the desired interval or resort. Approximately 5,168 exchanges occurred in 2006. Silverleaf Owners pay an exchange fee of $75 to Silverleaf Club for each such internal exchange. In addition, most Silverleaf Owners may join the exchange program administered by RCI for an annual fee of $89. Orlando Breeze, is not under contract with RCI; however it is under contract with Interval International, Inc., a competitor of RCI.

Deeded Ownership. We typically sell a Vacation Interval that entitles the owner to use a specific unit for a designated one-week interval each year. The Vacation Interval purchaser receives a recorded deed, which grants the purchaser a percentage interest in a specific unit for a designated week. We also sell a biennial (alternate year) Vacation Interval that allows the owner to use a unit for a one-week interval every other year with reduced dues.

Management Club. Each of the Existing Resorts has a Club for the benefit of the timeshare owners. At December 31, 2006, the Clubs (except for the club at Orlando Breeze) operate under Silverleaf Club to manage the Existing Resorts on a centralized and collective basis. We have contracted with Silverleaf Club to perform the supervisory and management functions granted by the Clubs. Costs of these operations are covered by monthly dues paid by timeshare owners to their respective Clubs together with income generated by the operation of certain amenities at each respective resort. Our destination resort in Florida, Orlando Breeze, has its own club, Orlando Breeze Resort Club, which operates independently of Silverleaf Club; however, we supervise the management and operation of the Orlando Breeze Resort Club under the terms of a written agreement.

On-Site Security. Each of the Resorts is patrolled by security personnel who are either employees of the Management Club or personnel of independent security service companies that have contracted with the Clubs.

During 2006, 1,309 Vacation Intervals were sold.

Silverleaf’s Seaside Resort. Silverleaf’s Seaside Resort is located in Galveston, Texas, approximately 50 miles south of Houston, Texas. The resort contains approximately 87 acres. At December 31, 2006, approximately 50 acres were developed.

At December 31, 2006, the resort had 120 units and an additional 288 are planned for development. The two bedroom, two bath units are situated in three-story twelveplex buildings. Amenities within each unit include two large bedrooms, two bathrooms (one with a whirlpool tub), living room with sleeper sofa, full kitchen, color television, and electronic door locks.

With 635 feet of beachfront, the primary amenity at the resort is the Gulf of Mexico. Other amenities include a lodge with kitchen, tennis court, swimming pool, sand volleyball court, playground, picnic pavilion, horseshoes, and shuffleboard.

At December 31, 2006, the resort contained 6,240 Vacation Intervals of which 1,012 remained available for sale. We plan to build 288 additional units, which would yield an additional 14,976 Vacation Intervals for sale. Vacation Intervals at the resort are currently priced from $9,500 to $19,000 for one-week stays (and start at $5,100 for biennial intervals), while one-week “Presidents Seaside” intervals are priced at $13,500 to $35,500 depending on the value rating of the interval. During 2006, 530 Vacation Intervals were sold.

Orlando Breeze Resort. In October 2004, we acquired a 4.8-acre tract of land located in Davenport, Florida, just outside Orlando, Florida, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $6.0 million. The site, formerly known as the Villas at Polo Park, is near the major Florida tourist attractions of Walt Disney World, Sea World, and Universal Studios. At December 31, 2006, approximately 4 acres were developed. In January 2006, we purchased approximately 30 acres of undeveloped land contiguous to the 4.8 acre tract of land in Davenport, Florida. Extensive pre-development work must be completed before we develop the property. Any development of the property is subject to State and Local Governmental approvals necessary for timeshare operations.

At December 31, 2006, the resort had 48 units and an additional 24 are planned for development. The units consist of two and three bedroom units, with eight two-bedroom units and eight three-bedroom units having been refurbished during 2005. Amenities within each refurbished unit include a living room with sleeper sofa, full kitchen, color television, ceiling fans, ceramic tile, Broyhill furniture, and aluminum patio furniture. Amenities at the resort include a heated outdoor swimming pool with whirlpool, fitness center, arcade, playground, sand volleyball and basketball courts.

40

 
At December 31, 2006, the resort contained 2,496 Vacation Intervals of which 1,479 remained available for sale. We plan to build 24 additional units, which would yield an additional 1,248 Vacation Intervals for sale. Vacation Intervals at the resort are currently priced from $25,500 to $35,500 for one-week stays. During 2006, 15 Vacation Intervals were sold.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are currently subject to litigation arising in the normal course of our business. From time to time, such litigation includes claims regarding employment, tort, contract, truth-in-lending, the marketing and sale of Vacation Intervals, and other consumer protection matters. Litigation has been initiated from time to time by persons seeking individual recoveries for themselves, as well as, in some instances, persons seeking recoveries on behalf of an alleged class. In our judgment, none of the lawsuits currently pending against us, either individually or in the aggregate, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Various legal actions and claims may be instituted or asserted in the future against us and our subsidiaries, including those arising out of our sales and marketing activities and contractual arrangements. Some of the matters may involve claims, which, if granted, could be materially adverse to our financial condition.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. We will establish reserves from time to time when deemed appropriate under generally acceptable accounting principles. However, the outcome of a claim for which we have not deemed a reserve to be necessary may be decided unfavorably against us and could require us to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts or a range of amounts that could be materially adverse to our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

None.

STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The Stock Performance Graph below shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this Annual Report on Form 10-K into any filing under the Securities Act or under the Exchange Act, except to the extent we specifically incorporate this information by reference, and it shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

Set forth below is a line graph comparing the total cumulative return of our Common Stock since December 31, 2001 to (a) the S&P 500 Index, a broad equity market index, (b) the Russell 2000 Index, an index that measures the performance of stocks with small to medium-small market capitalization and (c) the Russell MicroCap Index, an index that measures the performance of stocks in the micro-cap segment of market capitalization. The comparisons in this table are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission and are not intended to forecast or be indicative of possible future performance of the Common Stock.

Only a few other publicly held companies engage in our principal line of business - the sale of vacation ownership intervals. Prominent among this limited group are The Walt Disney Company, Hilton Hotels Corporation, and Marriott International Inc. which are (i) diversified, with far less than 50% of their respective revenues attributable to vacation ownership interval sales, and (ii) substantially larger than we are in terms of revenue, assets and market capitalization. Therefore, we concluded that there was not a sufficient body of reliable market data for us to use a comparison peer group. Therefore, since 1998 we have used the Russell 2000 Index as an index of issuers with similar market capitalization. In 2006 our stock was added to the Russell MicroCap Index. As a result, we have elected to compare the performance of our stock to the S&P 500 Index and the Russell MicroCap Index for all future years and to cease comparing our stock to the Russell 2000. The following graph compares the performance of our stock to the S&P 500 Index, the Russell 2000 Index and the Russell MicroCap Index.

The graph assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2001 in our stock, the S&P 500, the Russell 2000 and the Russell MicroCap and assumes dividends are reinvested. Silverleaf’s cumulative total return of $7,450 is due to the growth in the bid price of our common stock from $0.06 at December 31, 2001 to $4.47 at December 31, 2006.

The following table sets forth the high and low closing prices of our Common Stock for the quarterly periods indicated, which correspond to the quarterly fiscal periods for financial reporting purposes. The Common Stock prices from January 2005 to September 18, 2005 are the closing bid prices as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. During the third quarter of 2005 the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) approved our application to list our shares of Common Stock under the ticker symbol “SVL”. Our stock began trading on the AMEX effective September 19, 2005. From that point forward the Common Stock prices shown are the closing bid prices as quoted on the AMEX.

As of December 31, 2006, we believe that there were approximately 2,207 holders of our Common Stock, which is the only class of our equity securities outstanding.

We listed our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market, under the symbol “SVLF”, effective as of the opening of the market on February 28, 2007. As a result, trading in Silverleaf common stock ceased on the American Stock Exchange effective at the closing of the markets on February 27, 2007.
 
Our stock option plans provide for the award of nonqualified stock options to directors, officers, and key employees, and the grant of incentive stock options to salaried key employees. Stock options provide for the right to purchase common stock at a specified price, which may be less than or equal to fair market value on the date of grant (but not less than par value). Stock options may be granted for any term and upon such conditions determined by our Board of Directors.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings to finance our operations and fund the growth of our business. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness, contractual and other restrictions in respect to payment of dividends under our senior credit facilities, and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Selected Consolidated Historical Financial and Operating Information

The Selected Consolidated Historical Financial and Operating Information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing elsewhere in this report on Form 10-K. As discussed under the heading “Significant Accounting Policies Summary” in Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1, in 2006 we changed our accounting for real estate time-sharing transactions in connection with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 152, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions, and changed our accounting for stock-based compensation in connection with the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. As a result, some of the amounts in the following tables for 2002 to 2005 may not be comparable to 2006.

In previously issued Statements of Cash Flows, we reported the operating and investing activities of our discontinued operations on a combined basis as a single amount. In 2006, we separately disclosed those activities within our other operating and investing activities. In addition, during 2006 we reflected cash restricted for repayment of debt as a financing activity rather than an operating activity. Accordingly, we revised the 2002 to 2005 Cash Flows Data above for comparability purposes to 2006.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Financial Data” and our Financial Statements and the notes thereto and other financial data included elsewhere herein. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

We are in the business of owning and operating thirteen timeshare resorts as of December 31, 2006. Our income is derived principally from marketing and selling timeshare interests at our resorts in one-week intervals, and from the interest earned from financed sales of such timeshare interests. As of December 31, 2006, seven of our resorts are located within one and one half to two hours of major metropolitan areas (“getaway resorts”), which are the primary market for timeshare sales to new purchasers. Six of our resorts are in destination resort areas located further from major metropolitan areas (“destination resorts”). The principal purchasers of timeshare interests at the destination resorts are existing owners who are upgrading or buying additional interests.

45

 
The following economic or industry-wide factors are relevant to us:

 
·
We sell a vacation and recreational product, predominantly to customers who drive to our locations. We believe that this type of usage is somewhat immune from issues that would affect the travel industry as a whole (i.e. the disruptions to the airline industry and destination resort industry after September 11, 2001), but major increases in gasoline prices or other issues that cause the U.S population to drive less could have a negative impact on us.

 
·
Telemarketing is a very important element in the generation of tours to potential new customers of timeshare interests. We presently comply with state and national do not call regulations. Changes to existing regulations could have a negative impact on our ability to generate the necessary tours to sell timeshare interests.

 
·
We finance the majority of our sales over seven to ten years. An economic downturn could negatively affect the ability of our customers to pay their principal and interest, which might result in additional provision for uncollectible notes.

 
·
Our fixed-to-floating debt ratio is 62% fixed and 38% floating. An increase in interest rates above the floor rates on our variable rate facilities could have a negative impact on our profitability.

 
·
Since we predominantly finance our sales of timeshare interests, we require credit facilities to have the liquidity necessary to fund our costs and expenses. We presently have adequate credit facilities to fund our operations through December 2008. A disruption in the availability of credit facilities would severely impact our ability to continue marketing and selling timeshare interests as we do today. In the first quarter of 2007, we consolidated our debt with Textron Financial Corporation into one revolving loan. As a result of the amended and restated loan and security agreement, the funding period on the consolidated debt has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010, with revised maturity dates of January 31, 2013 for the receivables component and January 31, 2012 on both the acquisition and inventory components. In addition, the interest rates previously charged have been reduced. This transaction is described in more detail under the heading “Subsequent Events” in Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

·
We believe there are two areas which are particularly important to our success as a business:
 
▪▪
The first area is identifying potential customers who are likely to pay their principal and interest payments when due after purchasing timeshare intervals, thereby resulting in an acceptable provision for uncollectible notes.

▪▪
The second area is to keep sales and marketing expenses at an acceptable level to result in a favorable percentage relationship between sales and marketing expense and Vacation Interval sales.

We earn revenue and income and finance our operations as follows:

 
·
Our primary source of revenue is Vacation Interval sales. Vacation Interval sales are a combination of sales to new customers and upgrade and/or additional week sales to existing customers. We have been focusing on increasing the percentage mix of sales to existing customers in 2004, 2005, and 2006. In addition we have been focusing on identifying potential new customers who have better credit characteristics that will ultimately be more likely to pay their principal and interest when due. To manage sales we assess separately sales to potential new customers and sales to existing customers. For sales to potential new customers we measure sales per tour in order to ascertain that our marketing programs are delivering the proper types of family tours to effectively and efficiently sell to new customers. State law allows purchasers of timeshares to rescind their purchase within three to fifteen days depending on the state. We also measure rescission amounts and rates of new customers to ascertain that our marketing and sales programs continue effectively. The number of tours to existing customers is not meaningful. As a result, we begin our assessment of sales to existing customers by totaling gross sales to existing customers. Rescissions by existing customers are generally much lower than rescissions by new customers. We do measure rescission amounts and rates to calculate net sales to existing customers. We then combine net sales to new and existing customers to calculate total Vacation Interval sales.

One product that is sold to new customers is a Sampler, which gives the customer the right to use the resorts on an “as available” basis from Sunday to Thursday. Revenues related to sampler contracts, which entitle the prospective owner to sample a resort during certain periods, have been and will continue to be deferred until the customer uses the stay or allows the contract to expire. Effective January 1, 2006, sampler sales and related costs are accounted for as incidental operations, whereby incremental costs in excess of incremental revenue are charged to expense as incurred and the operations are presented as a net expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Conversely, incremental revenue in excess of incremental costs is recorded as a reduction of inventory in the consolidated balance sheet. Incremental costs include costs that would not have been incurred had we not sold samplers. During the year ended December 31, 2006, all sampler sales were recorded as a reduction to sales and marketing expense since direct and incremental costs of sampler sales exceeded incremental sampler sales. The amount of the reduction to sales and marketing expense for sampler sales in 2006 was $2.9 million. Prior to SFAS No. 152, sampler sales were reported separately as revenue. We recognized $2.6 million and $2.2 million in revenues from sampler sales for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In assessing the effectiveness of our sales and marketing programs, we believe it is also important to compare sales and marketing expenses to sales. The separate elements of sales and marketing expense that we assess are the cost of marketing to new purchasers, the cost of marketing to existing purchasers, offsite marketing, commissions, and sales and marketing overhead, as detailed in the following table (dollars in thousands, except for cost per tour):

Our second most important source of revenue is interest income, which is predominantly earned on our notes receivable. Interest income as a percentage of notes receivable has increased each year from 2002 through 2006 as a result of periodically increasing the interest rate we charged our new customers.

 
·
We have three lesser revenue sources. They are management fees, predominantly from Silverleaf Club, gain on sale of notes receivable from our sale of notes receivable to our off-balance sheet special purpose entities, and other income. The gain on sale of notes receivable were $1.9 million, $6.5 million and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

47

 
 
·
We generate cash from the collection of down payments, principal and interest from purchasers of timeshare interval sales, the sales of notes receivable and from management fees and other income. We also generated cash in 2005 and 2006 from the sale of undeveloped land at locations that had been previously acquired for the possible development of new resorts.

 
·
Since the majority of our sales are financed, we have revolving credit facilities that are drawn on monthly to fund our costs, expenses and capital expenditures.

We operate principally in only one business segment, the timeshare industry. Further, we only operate in the United States. As of December 31, 2006, we operate resorts in six states (Texas, Missouri, Illinois, Massachusetts, Georgia, and Florida), and sell primarily to residents of those states, with limited sales to residents of nearby states. In April 2006, we purchased Pinnacle Lodge, a hotel property located near the Winter Park recreational area in Colorado which provides our owners with another destination vacation alternative and gives Silverleaf an entry point into this increasingly popular destination area.

Our principal short-term focus is on continuing to conservatively increase annual revenues. We will continue to identify new and existing customers with acceptable credit characteristics that will allow us to profitably sell new, upgrade, and additional Vacation Intervals at our Existing Resorts. Long term, if the opportunities present themselves, we will consider adding and developing new resorts where timeshare intervals can be marketed and sold at a profit.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue and Expense Recognition — As required, we adopted SFAS No. 152, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions” as of January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 152 prospectively revises the classification of certain revenue and cost activity. However, the adoption of SFAS No. 152 did not have a material effect on our reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2006, nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment.

A substantial portion of Vacation Interval sales are made in exchange for mortgage notes receivable, which are secured by a deed of trust on the Vacation Interval sold. We recognize the sale of a Vacation Interval under the full accrual method after a binding sales contract has been executed, the buyer has made a down payment of at least 10%, and the statutory rescission period has expired. If all accrual method criteria are met except that significant development costs remain to complete the project or phase, revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis. Under this method, the amount of revenue recognized (based on the sales value) at the time a sale is recognized is measured by the relationship of costs already incurred to the total of costs already incurred and estimated future costs. The remaining amount is deferred and recognized as the remaining costs are incurred. There were no sales deferred at December 31, 2006 related to the percentage-of-completion method.

Both of the above methods employ the relative sales value method in accounting for costs of sales and inventory, which are applied to each phase separately. Generally, we consider each building a separate phase. Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 152, in determining relative sales value, an estimate of uncollectibility is used to reduce the estimate of total Vacation Interval revenue under the project, both actual to date plus expected future revenue. The relative sales value method is used to allocate inventory cost and determine cost of sales in conjunction with a sale. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is estimated as a percentage of net sales using a cost of sales percentage which represents the ratio of total estimated cost, including both costs already incurred plus estimated costs to complete the phase, if any, to total estimated Vacation Interval revenue under the project. Common costs, including amenities, are allocated to inventory cost among the phases that those costs are expected to benefit, and are included in total estimated costs.

The estimate of total revenue for a phase, which includes both actual to date revenues and expected future revenues, incorporates factors such as actual or estimated uncollectibles, changes in sales mix and unit sales prices, repossessions of intervals, effects of upgrade programs, and past and expected sales programs to sell slow moving inventory units. On at least a quarterly basis, we evaluate the estimated cost of sales percentage, using updated information for total estimated phase revenue and total estimated phase costs, both actual to date and expected in the future. The effects of changes in estimates are accounted for in the period in which they first become known on a retrospective basis using a current period adjustment.

Certain Vacation Interval sales transactions are deferred until the minimum down payment has been received. We account for these transactions utilizing the deposit method. Under this method, the sale is not recognized, a receivable is not recorded, and inventory is not relieved. Any cash received is carried as a deposit until the sale can be recognized. When these types of sales are cancelled without a refund, deposits forfeited are recognized as income and the interest portion is recognized as interest income. This income is not significant.

48

 
In addition to sales of Vacation Intervals to new prospective owners, we sell additional and upgraded Vacation Intervals to existing owners. Revenues are recognized on an additional Vacation Interval sale, which is a new interval sale that is treated as a separate transaction from the original Vacation Interval for accounting purposes, when the buyer makes a down payment of at least 10%, excluding any equity from the original Vacation Interval purchased. Revenues are recognized on an upgrade Vacation Interval sale, which is a modification and continuation of the original sale, by including the buyer’s equity from the original Vacation Interval towards the down payment of at least 10%. The additional accrual method criteria described above must also be satisfied for revenue recognition of additional and upgraded Vacation Intervals. The revenue recognized on upgrade Vacation Interval sales is the difference between the upgrade sales price and traded-in sales price, and cost of sales is the incremental increase in the cost of the Vacation Interval purchased.

We recognize interest income as earned. Interest income is accrued on notes receivable, net of an estimated amount that will not be collected, until the individual notes become 90 days delinquent. Once a note becomes 90 days delinquent, the accrual of interest income ceases until collection is deemed probable.

We receive fees for management services provided to each timeshare resort’s owners’ association (a “Club”). These revenues are recognized on an accrual basis in the period the services are provided if collection is deemed probable.

Services and other income are recognized on an accrual basis in the period service is provided.

Sales and marketing costs are charged to expense in the period incurred. Commissions, however, are recognized in the same period as the revenue is recognized.

Allowance for Uncollectible Notes - Beginning January 1, 2006, estimated uncollectible revenue, which is an offset to Vacation Interval sales, is recorded at an amount sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible notes at a level management considers adequate to provide for anticipated losses resulting from customers' failure to fulfill their obligations under the terms of their notes. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 152, this line item was recorded as an expense: provision for uncollectible notes. The allowance for uncollectible notes is adjusted based upon periodic analysis of the notes receivable portfolio, historical credit loss experience, and current economic factors.

Credit losses take three forms. The first is the full cancellation of the note, whereby the customer is relieved of the obligation and we recover the underlying inventory. The second form is a deemed cancellation, whereby we record the cancellation of all notes that become 90 days delinquent, net of notes that are no longer 90 days delinquent. The third form is the note receivable reduction that occurs when a customer trades a higher value product for a lower value product. In estimating the allowance, we project future cancellations and credit losses for each sales year by using historical cancellations experience.

The allowance for uncollectible notes is reduced by actual cancellations and losses experienced, including losses related to previously sold notes receivable which became delinquent and were reacquired pursuant to the recourse obligations discussed herein. Recourse to the Company on sales of customer notes receivable is governed by the agreements between the purchasers and the Company.

The provision for uncollectible notes as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was reported as 0% in the provision expense line for the year ended December 31, 2006. In accordance with SFAS No. 152 and as discussed previously, estimated losses on Vacation Interval notes receivable are recorded as a reduction to Vacation Interval sales beginning in 2006 rather than as an expense item: provision for uncollectible notes, as it was recorded prior to 2006.

Our estimated uncollectible revenue as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was 17.3% for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our provision for uncollectible notes as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was 19.4% and 16.2% for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005. As noted above, an estimate for the value of inventory recoveries was included as a reduction to the provision for uncollectible notes prior to 2006 but is now included as a component in the relative sales value method of our inventory costing and allocation accounting. Considering the estimate for inventory recoveries, our net provision for expected credit losses would have been lower for the year ended December 31, 2006 versus the year ended December 31, 2005. The net improvement is due to the improved performance of notes originated in 2003 through 2006 as compared to notes originated in earlier years, before we implemented programs focused on selling to customers with a higher quality of credit. We will continue our current collection programs and seek new programs to reduce note defaults and improve the credit quality of our customers. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost includes amounts for land, construction materials, amenities and common costs, direct labor and overhead, taxes, and capitalized interest incurred in the construction or through the acquisition of resort dwellings held for timeshare sale. Timeshare unit costs are capitalized as inventory and are allocated to cost of Vacation Interval sales based upon their relative sales values.

We estimate the total cost to complete all amenities at each resort. This cost includes both costs incurred to date and expected costs to be incurred. At December 31, 2006, the estimated costs not yet incurred, which are expected to complete promised amenities was $2.1 million. We allocate the estimated promised and completed amenities cost to cost of Vacation Interval sales based on Vacation Intervals sold in a given period as a percentage of total Vacation Intervals expected to sell over the life of a particular resort project.

The relative sales value method of recording Vacation Interval cost of sales has been amended by SFAS No. 152 beginning January 1, 2006 to include estimated future defaults of uncollectible sales and the subsequent resale of the recovered Vacation Intervals reacquired on future cancelled sales in our total estimate of revenues we expect to earn on a project. We periodically review the carrying value of our inventory on an individual project basis for impairment, to ensure that the carrying value does not exceed market value.

Management periodically reviews the carrying value of our inventory on an individual project basis to ensure that the carrying value does not exceed market value.

Vacation Intervals may be reacquired as a result of (i) foreclosure (or deed in lieu of foreclosure) and (ii) trade-in associated with the purchase of an upgraded or downgraded Vacation Interval. Vacation Intervals reacquired are recorded in inventory at the lower of their original cost or market value. Vacation Intervals that have been reacquired are relieved from inventory on a specific identification basis when resold. Inventory acquired several years ago through our program to reacquire Vacation Intervals owned but not actively used by Silverleaf Owners has a significantly lower average cost basis than recently constructed inventory, contributing significantly to historical operating margins. Newer inventory added through our construction and acquisition programs has a higher average cost than our older inventory.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2003 and all periods thereafter, we have been in full compliance with our debt covenants in our credit facilities with all of our senior lenders. The following table summarizes our credit agreements with our senior lenders and our off-balance sheet special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, as of December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

We use these credit agreements to finance the sale of Vacation Intervals, to finance construction, and for working capital needs. The loans mature between April 2008 and July 2018, and are collateralized (or cross-collateralized) by customer notes receivable, inventory, construction in process, land, improvements, and related equipment at certain of the Existing Resorts. Our fixed-to-floating debt ratio at December 31, 2006 was 62% fixed rate debt to 38% floating rate debt. The credit facilities that bear interest at variable rates are tied to the prime rate, LIBOR, or the corporate rate charged by certain banks. The credit facilities secured by customer notes receivable allow advances of 75% to 80% of the unpaid balance of certain eligible customer notes receivable. In addition, we have $3.8 million of senior subordinated notes due April 2007, $2.1 million of senior subordinated notes due April 2008, and $24.7 million of senior subordinated notes due April 2010, with interest payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1, guaranteed by all of our present and future domestic restricted subsidiaries.

Sources of Cash. We generate cash primarily from the cash received on the sale of Vacation Intervals, the financing of customer notes receivable from Silverleaf Owners, the sale of notes receivable to our special purpose entities, management fees, sampler sales, marina income, golf course and pro shop income, and utility operations (through the first quarter of 2005). We typically receive a 10% to 15% down payment on sales of Vacation Intervals and finance the remainder by receipt of a seven-year to ten-year customer promissory note. We generate cash from the financing of customer notes receivable by (i) borrowing at an advance rate of 75% to 80% of eligible customer notes receivable, (ii) selling notes receivable, and (iii) from the spread between interest received on customer notes receivable and interest paid on related borrowings. Because we use significant amounts of cash in the development and marketing of Vacation Intervals, but collect cash on customer notes receivable over a seven-year to ten-year period, borrowing against receivables has historically been a necessary part of normal operations. During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, we had net cash provided by operating activities of $9.4 million and $75.7 million, respectively. In 2005, the increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of increased sales of notes receivable, partially offset by the increase in our maximum exposure to loss regarding our involvement with SF-III.

50

 
Operating activities typically reflect net cash provided by operations; however for the year ended December 31, 2006 we had net cash used in operating activities of $45.6 million. The net decrease in cash flow of $121.3 million between 2005 and 2006 resulted primarily from cash provided by the sale of notes receivable in 2005 of $104.2 million. There were no sales of notes receivable in 2006. In addition, we had a 28.0% increase in Vacation Interval sales in 2006 which resulted in a $44.8 million increase in cash used for financing of sales between 2005 and 2006. Construction of additional units at our existing resorts also increased $9.6 million in 2006.

Although it appears we have adequate liquidity to meet our needs through 2008, we are continuing to identify additional financing arrangements into 2009 and beyond. To finance our growth, development, and any future expansion plans, we may at some time be required to consider the issuance of other debt, equity, or collateralized mortgage-backed securities. Any debt we incur or issue may be secured or unsecured, have fixed or variable rate interest, and may be subject to such terms as management deems prudent. In the first quarter of 2007, we consolidated our debt with Textron Financial Corporation into one revolving loan. As a result of the amended and restated loan and security agreement, the funding period on the consolidated debt has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010, with revised maturity dates of January 31, 2013 for the receivables component and January 31, 2012 on both the acquisition and inventory components. In addition, the interest rates previously charged have been reduced. This transaction is described in more detail under the heading “Subsequent Events” in Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

Uses of Cash. Investing activities typically reflect a net use of cash due to capital additions and property acquisitions. However, for the year ended 2005, net cash provided by investing activities was $18.5 million. In 2005, the net cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to the sale of our water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our resorts, and the sale of undeveloped land located in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2006 was $1.3 million and $13.6 million, respectively. In 2004 the net cash used in investing activities consisted of equipment purchases. The increase in net cash used in investing activities for the year 2006 was primarily due to the purchase of the following assets in 2006; Pinnacle Lodge, a 64 room hotel located near the Winter Park recreational area in Colorado, two offsite sales offices, and a corporate aircraft. We also began construction on a water park at one of our resorts in 2006. We evaluate sites for additional new resorts or acquisitions on an ongoing basis.

Net cash used in financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 was $1.2 million and $94.1 million, respectively. During 2005, the increase in cash used in financing activities was the result of increased payments on borrowings against pledged notes receivable and the repurchase of previously sold notes. We paid fair value for the outstanding balance of notes receivable under SF-I, two non-revolving loans with one of our senior lenders, three term notes with another senior lender, and the outstanding balance under both the receivable and inventory loans with a third senior lender. Net cash provided by financing activities was $59.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2006. This was due primarily to borrowings under the SF-V Series 2006-A Notes which originated in 2006.

At December 31, 2006, our senior credit facilities provided for loans of up to $509.6 million, of which approximately $245.2 million of principal related to advances under the credit facilities was outstanding. At December 31, 2006, the weighted average cost of funds for all borrowings was 7.9%. Customer defaults have a significant impact on cash available to us from financing customer notes receivable in that notes more than 60 days past due are not eligible as collateral. As a result, we must repay borrowings against such delinquent notes. As of December 31, 2006, $4.7 million of notes were more than 60 days past due.

Certain debt agreements include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends based on minimum levels of net income and cash flow. The payment of dividends might also be restricted by the Texas Business Corporation Act.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We entered into a $100 million revolving credit agreement to finance Vacation Interval notes receivable through SF-I, our off-balance-sheet special purpose entity during 2000. We agreed to reduce the principal amount of the facility from $100 million to $85 million in 2003, and during the first quarter of 2005 the facility amount was further reduced to $75 million. During 2003, we sold $40.4 million of notes receivable to SF-I and recognized pre-tax gains of $3.2 million. In conjunction with these sales, we received cash consideration of $31.8 million, which was primarily used to pay down borrowings under our revolving loan facilities. During 2004, we sold $27.4 million of notes receivable to SF-I and recognized pre-tax gains of $1.9 million. In conjunction with these sales, we received cash consideration of $20.6 million, which was used to pay down borrowings under our revolving loan facilities. During 2005, we sold $8.0 million of notes receivable to SF-I and recognized pre-tax gains of $669,000. In conjunction with these sales, we received cash consideration of $6.0 million, which was used to pay down borrowings under our revolving loan facilities. SF-I funded all of these purchases through advances under a credit agreement arranged for this purpose. We receive fees for servicing sold receivables, calculated based on 1% of eligible receivables held by the facility. Such fees were $684,000, $355,000, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively. Such fees received approximate our internal cost of servicing such receivables, and approximates the fee a third party would receive to service such receivables. As a result, the related servicing asset or liability was estimated to be insignificant.

During the third quarter of 2005 we closed a term securitization transaction with a wholly-owned off-balance sheet qualified special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, a Delaware limited liability company, which was formed for the purpose of issuing $108.7 million of its Series 2005-A Notes in a private placement through UBS Securities LLC. The Series 2005-A Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture (“Indenture”) between Silverleaf, as servicer of the timeshare loans, SF-III, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Indenture Trustee, Custodian, Backup Servicer, and Account Intermediary. The Series 2005-A Notes were issued in four classes ranging from Class A through Class D notes with a blended fixed rate of 5.4%. The Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes have received a rating from Moody's Investor Services, Inc. of “Aaa”, “Aa2”, “A2” and “Baa2”, respectively.

The Series 2005-A Notes are secured by timeshare receivables sold to SF-III by us pursuant to a transfer agreement between SF-III and us. Under that agreement, we sold to SF-III approximately $132.8 million in timeshare receivables that were previously pledged as collateral under revolving credit facilities with our senior lenders and SF-I, and recognized a pre-tax gain of 5.8 million. In connection with this sale, we received gross cash consideration of $108.7 million, which was primarily used to pay off in full the credit facility of SF-I and to pay down amounts we owed under credit facilities with our senior lenders. We dissolved SF-I simultaneously with the sale of the timeshare receivables to SF-III. The timeshare receivables we sold to SF-III are without recourse to us, except for breaches of certain representations and warranties at the time of sale. We are responsible for servicing the timeshare receivables purchased by SF-III pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and will receive a fee for our services equal to 1.75% of eligible timeshare receivables held by the facility. Such fees were $1.5 million and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such fees received approximate our internal cost of servicing such timeshare receivables, and approximates the fee a third party would receive to service such receivables. As a result, the related servicing asset or liability was estimated to be insignificant. At December 31, 2006, SF-III held notes receivable totaling $62.7 million, with related borrowings of $52.3 million. Except for the repurchase of notes that fail to meet initial eligibility requirements, we are not obligated to repurchase defaulted or any other contracts sold to SF-III. As the Servicer of the notes receivable sold to SF-III, we are obligated by the terms of the conduit facility to foreclose upon the Vacation Interval securing a defaulted note receivable. We may, but are not obligated to, purchase the foreclosed Vacation Interval for an amount equal to the net fair market value of the Vacation Interval if the net fair market value is no less than fifteen percent of the original acquisition price that the customer paid for the Vacation Interval. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we paid approximately $2.1 million to repurchase the Vacation Intervals securing defaulted contracts to facilitate the re-marketing of those Vacation Intervals. Our total investment in SF-III was carried at $13.0 million at December 31, 2006, which represents our maximum exposure to loss regarding our involvement with SF-III.

Our special purpose entities allow us to realize the benefit of additional credit availability we have with our current senior lenders. We require credit facilities to have the liquidity necessary to fund our costs and expenses, therefore it is vitally important to our liquidity plan to have financing available to us in order to finance future sales, since we finance the majority of our timeshare sales over seven to ten years.

Income Taxes. For regular federal income tax purposes, we report substantially all of the Vacation Interval sales we finance under the installment method. Under this method, income on sales of Vacation Intervals is not recognized until cash is received, either in the form of a down payment or as installment payments on customer notes receivable. The deferral of income tax liability conserves cash resources on a current basis. Interest is imposed, however, on the amount of tax attributable to the installment payments for the period beginning on the date of sale and ending on the date the payment is received. If we are not subject to tax in a particular year, no interest is imposed since the interest is based on the amount of tax paid in that year. The consolidated financial statements do not contain an accrual for any interest expense that would be paid on the deferred taxes related to the installment method as the interest expense is not estimable.

In addition, we are subject to current alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) as a result of the deferred income that results from the installment sales treatment. Payment of AMT creates a deferred tax asset in the form of a minimum tax credit, which, unless otherwise limited, reduces the future regular tax liability attributable to Vacation Interval sales. Due to AMT losses in certain years prior to 2003, which offset all AMT income for years prior to 2003, no minimum tax credit exists for years prior to 2003. Nevertheless, we had significant AMT for 2006 and anticipate that we will pay significant AMT in future years.

The federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) expire between 2019 through 2021. Realization of the deferred tax assets arising from
NOLs is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the loss carryforwards.

Due to the exchange offer that took place during 2002, an ownership change within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Internal Revenue Code (“the Code”) occurred. As a result, a portion of our NOL is subject to an annual limitation for taxable years beginning after the date of the exchange (“change date”) and a portion of the taxable year that includes the change date. This annual limitation may be increased for any recognized built-in gain to the extent allowed in Section 382(h) of the Code. There is an annual limitation of approximately $768,000, which was the value of our stock immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the applicable long term tax exempt rate. We believe that approximately $36.2 million of our net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2006, are subject to the Section 382 limitations.

Discontinued Operations. In accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”), the water and utility property assets and liabilities were designated as held for sale effective December 31, 2004. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of these properties are included in income from discontinued operations. Prior periods have been reclassified for comparability, as required. The carrying amounts of the water and utility property assets were $0 as of December 31, 2005.
 
On March 11, 2005, we sold the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our timeshare resorts for an aggregate sales price of $13.1 million, which resulted in a pretax gain of $879,000 during the third quarter of 2005, once all conditions of the sale were met. The purchasers of the utilities are Algonquin Water Resources, of Texas, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Missouri, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Illinois, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of America, Inc., a Delaware corporation; and Algonquin Power Income Fund, an open-ended investment trust established under the laws of Ontario, Canada (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Certain of the Purchasers have entered into a services agreement to provide uninterrupted water supply and waste water treatment services to our eight timeshare resorts to which the transferred utility assets relate. The Purchasers will charge our timeshare resorts the tariffed rate for those utility services that are regulated by the states in which the resorts are located. For any unregulated utility services, the Purchasers will charge a rate set in accordance with the ratemaking procedures of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The proceeds of our sale of these utility assets were used to reduce senior debt in accordance with our loan agreements with our senior lenders.

Notwithstanding the closing of this sale of utilities assets, our agreement with the Purchasers contains provisions relating to the required post-closing receipt of customary governmental approvals from utility regulators in Missouri and Texas. During the third quarter of 2005, the Purchasers received governmental approval from the utility regulators in Missouri. Approval from the utility regulators in Texas is still pending at this time. However, we entered into an amendment during July 2006 in which the deadline for obtaining required approvals from the appropriate Texas regulatory agencies was extended from September 2006 to March 2007. During February 2007, the deadline for obtaining approval from the Texas regulatory agencies was extended another 90 days from March 2007 to June 2007. If the Purchasers do not receive required approvals from Texas regulators relating to the utility assets in Texas (the “Texas Assets”) by June 2007, the Texas Assets will be reconveyed to us, the transaction involving the Texas Assets will be rescinded, and we will be obligated to return to the Purchasers approximately $6.2 million of the purchase price attributable to the Texas Assets.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005

Revenues 

Revenues in 2006 were $206.9 million, representing a $5.0 million, or 2.5%, increase compared to revenues of $201.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. This increase primarily relates to increased Vacation Interval sales, discussed below, net of gain on sales of notes receivable and other income in 2005.

In accordance with SFAS No. 152, total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2006 is decreased by estimated uncollectible revenue of $32.5 million, which represents estimated future gross cancellations of notes receivable prior to any recoveries of inventory. In addition, under SFAS No. 152, sampler sales are accounted for as incidental operations, which require that any such incidental revenues be recorded as a reduction of incremental costs or expenses. Accordingly, $2.9 million of sampler sales, which would have been reported as revenue prior to adoption of SFAS No. 152, were accounted for as a reduction to sales and marketing expense in the year ended December 31, 2006. Had these two changes mandated by SFAS No. 152 not been made, revenues would have increased by 20.0% to $242.3 million.

Overall, Vacation Interval sales increased 28.0% in 2006 versus 2005, due to increased interval sales to both new and existing customers as a result of increased demand from our existing customers for upgraded intervals, higher closing percentages, and lower rescission rates. The number of interval sales to new customers increased 22.2% and average prices increased 3.4%, resulting in a 26.4% net increase in Vacation Interval sales to new customers in 2006 versus 2005. The number of interval sales to existing customers increased 26.5% and average prices increased 2.3%, resulting in a 29.4% net increase in sales to existing customers during 2006 versus 2005.

We anticipate continued growth in our annual Vacation Interval sales in 2007. This growth will be achieved through a combination of:

 
·
Increased sales to new customers.

 
·
Increased upgrade sales and additional week sales to existing customers.

 
·
Potentially opening new resorts. We have identified potential markets for future expansion that may include Winter Park, Colorado, Washington DC, Las Vegas, Wisconsin Dells, and/or Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Depending on the size and location, a new resort’s land, infrastructure, and amenities will cost between $5.0 million and $15.0 million.

 
·
Anticipate a permanent opening of our second off site sales center near Chicago, Illinois.

Estimated uncollectible revenue was $32.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 versus $0 reported on this line for 2005. As discussed previously, SFAS No. 152 requires the estimated uncollectible revenue to be recorded as a reduction to Vacation Interval sales and no longer net of inventory recovery beginning in 2006 rather than as an expense item: provision for uncollectible notes, as it was previously recorded.

Sampler sales primarily function as a marketing program, allowing us additional opportunities to sell a Vacation Interval to a prospective customer. Sampler sales are not recognized in the consolidated statement of operations until the customer uses the stay or our obligation has elapsed, which often does not occur until the sampler contract expires eighteen months after the sale is consummated. Sampler sales for the year 2006 were reported as $0 compared to $2.6 million for 2005. Beginning in 2006 per SFAS No. 152, sampler sales and related costs are accounted for as incidental operations, whereby incremental costs in excess of incremental revenue are charged to expense as incurred and the operations are presented as a net expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Conversely, incremental revenue in excess of incremental costs is recorded as a reduction of inventory. Incremental costs include costs that would not have been incurred had we not sold samplers. During the year ended December 31, 2006, all sampler sales of $2.9 million were recorded as a reduction to sales and marketing expense, since incremental costs of sampler sales exceeded incremental sampler sales.
 
Interest income increased $8.0 million, or 21.2%, to $46.2 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $38.2 million for 2005. The increase primarily resulted from a higher average notes receivable balance in 2006 versus the same period of 2005, a $2.1 million increase in interest accretion related to the investment in special purpose entity for the year ended December 31, 2006 versus the year ended December 31, 2005, and an increase in the average yield on our outstanding notes receivable to 15.7% at December 31, 2006 from 15.3% at December 31, 2005.

Management fee income, which consists of management fees collected from the resorts’ management clubs, cannot exceed the management clubs’ net income. Management fee income remained constant at $1.9 million for both years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

There were no sales of notes receivable during the year of 2006. Gain on sale of notes receivable was $6.5 million during 2005, resulting from the sale of $8.0 million and $132.8 million of notes receivable to SF-I and SF-III, respectively, and recognizing pre-tax gains of $669,000 and $5.8 million, respectively. In connection with the sale to SF-I, we received cash consideration of $6.0 million, which was used to pay down borrowings under our senior revolving loan facilities. In connection with the sale to SF-III, we received gross cash consideration of $108.7 million, which was used to pay off in full the credit facility of SF-I and to pay down borrowings under our senior revolving loan facilities.

Other income consists of marina income, golf course and pro shop income, and other miscellaneous items. Other income decreased $2.6 million to $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The decrease is primarily due to a $3.6 million gain on the sale of undeveloped land located in Pennsylvania during 2005, which is partially offset by a $0.5 million gain on the sale of two parcels of Mississippi land during 2006. Other than these two land sales, other income remained fairly constant for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Cost of Vacation Interval Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales decreased to 10.1% in 2006, versus 16.0% in 2005. This decrease is primarily due to the implementation of SFAS No. 152 effective January 1, 2006, which amends the relative sales value method of recording Vacation Interval cost of sales to include an estimate of future defaults of uncollectible revenue, both actual to date plus expected future revenue. The relative sales value method is used to allocate inventory cost and determine cost of sales in conjunction with a sale. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is estimated as a percentage of net sales using a cost of sales percentage which represents the ratio of total estimated cost, including both costs already incurred plus costs to complete the phase, if any, to total estimated Vacation Interval revenue under the project, including amounts already recognized and future revenues. Common costs, including amenities, are allocated to inventory cost among the phases that those costs are expected to benefit. The estimate of total revenue for a phase, which includes both actual to date revenues and expected future revenues, incorporates factors such as actual or estimated uncollectibles, changes in sales mix and unit sales prices, repossessions of intervals, effects of upgrade programs, and past and expected future sales programs to sell slow moving inventory units.
 
55


For comparability, had cost of sales not been reduced by the estimated future recoveries of inventory, as described above, cost of sales for 2006 would have been 14.5% of Vacation Interval Sales versus 16.0% in 2005. Higher average sales prices during 2006 compared to 2005 contributed to the reduction in cost of sales as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales decreased to 50.1% for the year ended December 31, 2006 versus 51.0% for the same period of 2005. In accordance with SFAS No. 152 and as discussed in sampler sales above, $2.9 million of sampler revenues were recorded as a reduction to sales and marketing expense since the incremental costs of our sampler sales exceeded incremental sampler revenue. Had sales and marketing expense not been reduced by sampler sales, sales and marketing expense would have been 51.7% of Vacation Interval sales for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase compared to the previous year is due to our costs associated with our newly opened off-site sales centers as well as the investment in securing additional personnel and processes ahead of the expected growth for which we are planning.
 
Provision for Uncollectible Notes

The provision for uncollectible notes as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was reported as 0% in the provision expense line for 2006. In accordance with SFAS No. 152 and as discussed previously, estimated losses on Vacation Interval notes receivable are recorded as a reduction to Vacation Interval sales beginning in 2006 rather than as an expense item: provision for uncollectible notes, as it was recorded prior to 2006.

Our estimated uncollectible revenue as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was 17.3% for 2006. Our provision for uncollectible notes as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales was 16.2% during 2005. As noted above, an estimate for the value of inventory recoveries was included as a reduction to the provision for uncollectible notes prior to 2006 but is now included as a component in the relative sales value method of our inventory costing and allocation accounting. Considering the estimate for inventory recoveries of approximately 4.3% of Vacation Interval sales, our net provision for expected credit losses was 13.0% during 2006, which compares favorably to 16.2% for 2005. The net percentage improvement is due to the improved performance of notes originated in 2003 through 2006 as compared to notes originated in earlier years, before we implemented programs focused on selling to customers with a higher quality of credit. We will continue our current collection programs and seek new programs to reduce note defaults and improve the credit quality of our customers. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Operating, General and Administrative

Operating, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased to 15.6% in 2006 from 13.9% in 2005. Overall, operating, general and administrative expenses increased $4.3 million during 2006 as compared to 2005, primarily due to increased professional fees of $1.9 million and increased salaries of $1.5 million. Excluding the impact of SFAS No. 152 on our revenues during 2006 as described above, operating, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues would have been 13.3% during 2006.

Depreciation

Depreciation expense as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 1.2% in 2006 from 1.3% in 2005. Overall, depreciation expense decreased $184,000 for the year of 2006 versus the same period of 2005.

Interest Expense and Lender Fees

Interest expense and lender fees as a percentage of interest income increased to 46.8% for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to 45.2% for the same period of 2005. Overall, interest expense and lender fees increased $4.4 million for 2006 versus 2005, primarily due to a larger average debt balance outstanding during 2006, net of a decrease in our weighted average cost of borrowings from 8.1% for the year ended December 31, 2005 to 7.9% for same period of 2006.

Income before Provision for Income Taxes and Discontinued Operations

Income before provision for income taxes and discontinued operations increased to income of $37.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $32.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before provision for income taxes and discontinued operations was a provision of 38.5% for 2006, as compared to 30.2% for 2005. The higher effective income tax rate during 2006 was the result of utilizing a sufficient level of the NOL carryforward and other deferred tax assets during 2005, which caused us to move into a net deferred tax liability position for all of 2006.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from continuing operations increased to $23.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $22.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Income from Discontinued Operations

Income from discontinued operations was $741,000, net of income taxes, during the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to $0 during the same period of 2006. We recognized a gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of income taxes, of $613,000 during 2005 related to the sale of our water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our timeshare resorts. We sold these assets during the first quarter of 2005, thus there has been no income (loss) from discontinued operations since that time.

Net Income

Net income was $23.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $23.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004

Revenues 

Revenues in 2005 were $201.9 million, representing an $18.2 million, or 9.9%, increase compared to revenues of $183.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase primarily relates to increased Vacation Interval sales, discussed below, and to a lesser extent, gain on sales of notes receivable and other income.

Overall, Vacation Interval sales increased 6.1% in 2005 versus 2004. The number of interval sales to new customers decreased 6.1% as a result of our marketing strategy to improve the sales margin by increasing the proportion of sales to existing customers over sales to new customers. Average prices of sales to new customers increased 6.3% however, resulting in relatively no change in interval sales to new customers in 2005 versus 2004. The number of interval sales to existing customers increased 0.1% in 2005 versus 2004, and average prices increased 11.6%, resulting in an 11.7% net increase in the sales amount to existing customers during the year ended December 31, 2005 versus the year ended December 31, 2004.

Sampler sales increased to $2.6 million in 2005 compared to $2.2 million in 2004. Sampler sales were not recognized as revenue until our obligation had elapsed, which often did not occur until the sampler contract expired eighteen months after the sale was consummated. Hence, a significant portion of sampler sales recognized in 2005 relate to 2003 and 2004 sales activity.

Interest income increased 0.8% to $38.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from $37.8 million for 2004. The average yield on our outstanding notes receivable at December 31, 2005 was approximately 15.3%, compared to 15.1% at December 31, 2004.

Management fee income, which consists of management fees collected from the resorts’ management clubs, cannot exceed the management clubs’ net income. Management fee income increased $655,000 in the year ended December 31, 2005 from the same period of 2004, due primarily to increased profitability of the resorts’ management clubs during 2005 versus 2004.

Gain on sales of notes receivable was $6.5 million during 2005, resulting from the sale of $8.0 million and $132.8 million of notes receivable to SF-I and SF-III, respectively, and recognizing pre-tax gains of $669,000 and $5.8 million, respectively. In connection with the sale to SF-I, we received cash consideration of $6.0 million, which was used to pay down borrowings under our senior revolving loan facilities. In connection with the sale to SF-III, we received gross cash consideration of $108.7 million, which was used to pay off in full the credit facility of SF-I and to pay down borrowings under our senior revolving loan facilities. The $1.9 million gain during 2004 resulted from the sale of $27.4 million of notes receivable to SF-I.

Other income consists of marina income, golf course and pro shop income, and other miscellaneous items. Other income increased $3.9 million to $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase is primarily due to a $3.6 million gain on the sale of undeveloped land located in Pennsylvania during 2005. In addition, condo rentals at our Orlando Breeze resort, acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004, contributed to the increase.

Cost of Vacation Interval Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales decreased to 16.0% in 2005, from 18.1% in 2004, primarily due to selling a much higher percentage of our lower cost inventory during 2005 versus selling primarily our higher cost inventory during 2004. Higher average sales prices during 2005 compared to 2004 also contributed to the reduction in cost of sales as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales. The $1.5 million decrease in cost of sales during 2005 compared to 2004 is primarily due to increased sales of lower cost inventory. Cost of sales as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales is expected to increase in future periods as we continue to deplete our inventory of low-cost Vacation Intervals and shift our sales mix to more recently constructed units, which were built at higher average costs.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales decreased to 51.0% for the year ended December 31, 2005 versus 52.1% for the same period of 2004. This reduction is the result of our marketing strategy to improve the sales margin and increase the proportion of sales to existing customers over sales to new customers, as sales to existing customers require less sales and marketing expense. For the year ended December 31, 2005, sales to existing customers increased to 55.2% of Vacation Interval sales, up from 52.4% during 2004. The $2.8 million overall increase in sales and marketing expense is primarily attributable to the overall increase in Vacation Interval sales during 2005 versus 2004.

Provision for Uncollectible Notes

Provision for uncollectible notes as a percentage of Vacation Interval sales decreased to 16.2% for the year ended December 31, 2005 from 19.4% for 2004. The decrease from 2004 to 2005 was due to improved performance of notes originated in 2003, 2004, and 2005 as compared to notes originated in earlier years, before we focused on selling to customers with a higher quality of credit. The allowance for doubtful accounts was 22.8% and 21.1% of gross notes receivable as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. We will continue our current collection programs and seek new programs to reduce note defaults and improve the credit quality of our customers. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Operating, General and Administrative

Operating, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 13.9% in 2005 from 14.0% in 2004. Overall, operating, general and administrative expenses increased $2.4 million during 2005 as compared to 2004, primarily due to increased salaries and professional fees.

Depreciation

Depreciation expense as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 1.3% in 2005 from 2.0% in 2004. Overall, depreciation expense decreased $865,000 in 2005 versus 2004 due to a general reduction in capital expenditures since 2000. In addition, depreciation of our water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets was ceased effective December 31, 2004 due to the assets being designated as held for sale.
 
58


Interest Expense and Lender Fees

Interest expense and lender fees as a percentage of interest income remained fairly constant at 45.2% for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to 46.6% for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Income before Provision for Income Taxes and Discontinued Operations

Income before provision for income taxes and discontinued operations increased to $32.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as compared to $13.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before provision for income taxes and discontinued operations was 30.2% for 2005, as compared to 0.2% for 2004. The higher effective income tax rate during 2005 was the result of utilizing enough of the NOL carryforward and other deferred tax assets during the year, causing us to move into a net deferred tax liability position at year-end. The low effective income tax rate during the same period of 2004 was the result of being in a net deferred tax asset position for our 2004 year-end, which was offset by a valuation allowance, which reduced the net deferred tax assets to zero due to the unpredictability of recovery.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from continuing operations increased to $22.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as compared to $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Income from Discontinued Operations

Income from discontinued operations increased to $741,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to $624,000 during the same period of 2004. We recognized a gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of income taxes, of $613,000 during 2005 related to the sale of our water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our timeshare resorts. We sold these assets during the first quarter of 2005, thus there has been no income (loss) from discontinued operations since that time.

Net Income

Net income increased to income of $23.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, as compared to $13.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as a result of the above-mentioned operating results.

Long term debt includes $145.3 million of future interest and capital leases include $192,000 of future interest, using an approximate interest rate of 7.9%, which is our weighted average cost of borrowing at December 31, 2006. We also have a $15.7 million demand note with SF-II, our wholly owned on-balance sheet conduit financing subsidiary that is not included in long-term debt, since the note represents only a potential, future cash outlay, and in addition, is eliminated on a consolidated basis.

Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have not had a material impact on our revenues, operating income, and net income during any of the three most recent fiscal years. However, to the extent inflationary trends affect short-term interest rates, a portion of our debt service costs may be affected as well as the rates we charge on our customer notes receivable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 155 - In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (“SFAS No. 155”). SFAS No. 155 amends Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) and Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. The statement applies to certain hybrid financial instruments, which are instruments that contain embedded derivatives. The new standard establishes a requirement to evaluate beneficial interests in securitized financial assets to determine if the interests represent freestanding derivatives or are hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation. This new standard also permits an election for fair value re-measurement of any hybrid financial instrument containing an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133. The fair value election can be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis to existing instruments at the date of adoption and can be applied to new instruments on a prospective basis. This statement shall be effective for all financial instruments acquired, issued, or subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event occurring after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The fair value election provided for in paragraph 4(c) of this Statement may also be applied upon adoption of this Statement for hybrid financial instruments that had been bifurcated under paragraph 12 of Statement 133 prior to the adoption of this Statement. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year, provided the entity has not yet issued financial statements, including financial statements for any interim period for that fiscal year. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 156 - In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (“SFAS No. 156”). The statement allows for the adoption of the fair value method of accounting for servicing assets, as opposed to the lower of amortized cost or market value, including mortgage servicing rights, which represent an entity’s right to a future stream of cash flows based upon the contractual servicing fee associated with servicing mortgage loans. The statement is effective as of the beginning of any fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2006. We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

FIN No. 48 - In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN No. 48”). FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

SFAS No. 157 - In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which clarifies that the term fair value is intended to mean a market-based measure, not an entity-specific measure, and gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets in determining fair value. SFAS No. 157 requires disclosures about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect of fair value measures on earnings.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

SAB 108 - In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of prior-year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying misstatements in the current year financial statements. SAB 108 requires registrants to quantify misstatements using both an income statement (“rollover”) and balance sheet (“iron curtain”) approach and evaluate whether either approach results in a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. If prior year errors that had been previously considered immaterial now are considered material based on either approach, no restatement is required so long as management properly applied its previous approach and all relevant facts and circumstances were considered. If prior years are not restated, the cumulative effect adjustment is recorded in opening accumulated earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006, with earlier adoption encouraged. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
 
60


SFAS No. 159 - In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), which allows an irrevocable election to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with unrealized gains and losses recognized currently in earnings. Under SFAS No. 159, the fair value option may only be elected at the time of initial recognition of a financial asset or financial liability or upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Additionally, SFAS No. 159 provides that application of the fair value option must be based on the fair value of an entire financial asset or financial liability and not selected risks inherent in those assets or liabilities. SFAS No. 159 requires that assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value pursuant to the fair value option be reported in the financial statements in a manner that separates those fair values from the carrying amounts of similar assets and liabilities which are measured using another measurement attribute. SFAS No. 159 also provides expanded disclosure requirements regarding the effects of electing the fair value option on the financial statements. SFAS No. 159 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years in which interim financial statements have not been issued, provided that all of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 are early adopted as well. We are currently assessing the financial impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest on our notes receivable portfolio, senior subordinated debt, capital leases, and miscellaneous notes is fixed, whereas interest on our primary loan agreements which had a total facility amount of $509.6 million at December 31, 2006, have a fixed-to-floating debt ratio of 62% fixed rate debt to 38% floating rate debt. The impact of a one-point effective interest rate change on the $92.8 million balance of variable-rate financial instruments at December 31, 2006, on our annual results of operations would be approximately $928,000, or approximately $0.02 per diluted share.

At December 31, 2006, the carrying value of our notes receivable portfolio approximates fair value because the weighted average interest rate on the portfolio approximates current interest rates received on similar notes. If interest rates on our notes receivable are increased or perceived to be above market rates, the fair market value of our fixed-rate notes will decline, which may negatively impact our ability to sell new notes. The impact of a one-point interest rate change on the portfolio at December 31, 2006 could result in a fair value impact of approximately $9.9 million over the 6.75 year weighted average remaining life of our notes receivable portfolio.

Credit Risk— We are exposed to on-balance sheet credit risk related to our notes receivable. We are exposed to off-balance sheet credit risk related to notes sold.

We offer financing to the buyers of Vacation Intervals at our resorts. These buyers generally make a down payment of at least 10% of the purchase price and deliver a promissory note to us for the balance. The promissory notes generally bear interest at a fixed rate, are payable over a seven-year to ten-year period, and are secured by a first mortgage on the Vacation Interval. We bear the risk of default on these promissory notes.

If a buyer of a Vacation Interval defaults, we generally must foreclose on the Vacation Interval and attempt to resell it; the associated marketing, selling, and administrative costs from the original sale are not recovered; and such costs must be incurred again to resell the Vacation Interval. Although in many cases we may have recourse against a Vacation Interval buyer for the unpaid price, certain states have laws that limit our ability to recover personal judgments against customers who have defaulted on their loans. Accordingly, we have generally not pursued this remedy.

Interest Rate Risk — We have historically derived net interest income from our operating activities because the interest rates we charge our customers who finance the purchase of their Vacation Intervals have exceeded the interest rates we pay to our senior lenders. Because 38% of our indebtedness bears interest at variable rates and our customer receivables bear interest at fixed rates, increases in interest rates will erode the income that we have historically obtained due to this spread and could cause the rate on our borrowings to exceed the rate at which we provide financing to our customers.

To partially offset an increase in interest rates, we have engaged in two interest rate hedging transactions, or derivatives, related to our conduit loan with SF-II, for a notional amount of $39.3 million at December 31, 2006, that expires between September 2011 and March 2014. Our VFN with SF-IV also acts as an interest rate hedge since it contains a provision for an interest rate cap, however there are no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 2006.
 
61


In addition, the Series 2005-A Notes related to our off-balance sheet special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, with a balance of $52.3 million at December 31, 2006, bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 5.4%, and the Series 2006-A Notes related to SF-V bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 6.7%.

Availability of Funding Sources — We fund substantially all of our notes receivable, timeshare inventories, and land inventories which we originate or purchased with borrowings through our financing facilities, sales of notes receivable, internally generated funds, and proceeds from public debt and equity offerings. Borrowings are in turn repaid with the proceeds we receive from repayments of such notes receivable. To the extent that we are not successful in maintaining or replacing existing financings, we would have to curtail our operations or sell assets, thereby having a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.

In the first quarter of 2007, we consolidated our debt with Textron Financial Corporation into one revolving loan. As a result of the amended and restated loan and security agreement, the funding period on the consolidated debt has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010, with revised maturity dates of January 31, 2013 for the receivables component and January 31, 2012 on both the acquisition and inventory components. In addition, the interest rates previously charged have been reduced. This transaction is described in more detail under the heading “Subsequent Events” in Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

Geographic Concentration — Our notes receivable are primarily originated in Texas (where approximately 61% of Vacation Interval sales took place in 2006), Missouri, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Georgia. The risk inherent in such concentrations is dependent upon regional and general economic stability, which affects property values and the financial stability of the borrowers. Our Vacation Interval inventories are concentrated in Texas, Missouri, Illinois, Massachusetts, Georgia, and Florida. The risk inherent in such concentrations is in the continued popularity of the resort destinations, which affects the marketability of our products and the collection of notes receivable.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

An evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, those disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes made in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fourth quarter of 2006 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

There is no other information that we were required to disclose in a report on Form 8-K during the quarter ended December 31, 2006 that was not reported.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Dallas, Texas
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006. 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 condition of Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, in 2006 the Company changed its accounting for real estate time-sharing transactions in connection with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 152, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions,” changed its accounting for stock-based compensation in connection with the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” and has retroactively presented the operating and investing portions of the cash flows attributable to its discontinued operations, which in prior periods were reported on a combined basis as a single amount.

SILVERLEAF RESORTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006
 
1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS

Silverleaf Resorts, Inc., a Texas Corporation (the “Company,” “Silverleaf,” “we,” or “our”) is in the business of marketing and selling vacation intervals (“Vacation Intervals”). Our principal activities, in this regard, consist of (i) developing and acquiring timeshare resorts; (ii) marketing and selling one-week annual and biennial Vacation Intervals to new owners; (iii) marketing and selling upgrade and additional week Vacation Intervals to existing Silverleaf owners (“Silverleaf Owners”); (iv) providing financing for the purchase of Vacation Intervals; and (v) operating timeshare resorts under management agreements. We have in-house sales, marketing, financing, and property management capabilities and coordinate the operation of our 13 owned resorts (the “Existing Resorts”) and our one hotel property, Pinnacle Lodge, as of December 31, 2006, and the development of any new timeshare resort, including site selection, design, and construction. Sales of Vacation Intervals are marketed to individuals primarily through direct mail and telephone solicitation.

Each Existing Resort has a timeshare owners’ association (a “Club”). Each Club (other than Orlando Breeze) operates through a centralized organization to manage the Existing Resorts on a collective basis. The principal of such organization is Silverleaf Club. Orlando Breeze has its own club, Orlando Breeze Resort Club, which operates independently of Silverleaf Club; however, we supervise the management and operation of the Orlando Breeze Resort Club under the terms of a written agreement. Silverleaf Club has contracted with us to perform the supervisory, management, and maintenance functions at the Existing Resorts. All costs of operating the Existing Resorts, including management fees to the Company, are to be covered by monthly dues paid by Silverleaf Owners to their respective Clubs as well as income generated by the operation of certain amenities and revenue-producing assets at the Existing Resorts. Subject to availability of funds from the Clubs, we are entitled to a management fee to compensate us for the services provided. We evaluate the Clubs in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, FIN No. 46. We are not the primary beneficiaries, therefore consolidation is not necessary.

In addition to Vacation Interval sales revenues, we generate revenue from interest income derived from operating activities, management fees received from Silverleaf Club, selling notes receivable to special purpose entities, and other sources. All of the operations are directly related to the resort real estate development industry.

Our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006 reflect the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Silverleaf Travel, Inc., Awards Verification Center, Inc., Silverleaf Resort Acquisitions, Inc., Bull’s Eye Marketing, Inc., Silverleaf Berkshires, Inc., eStarCommunications, Inc., People Really Win Sweepstakes, Inc., SLR Research, Inc., Silverleaf Finance II, Inc., (“SF-II”), Silverleaf Finance IV, LLC, (“SF-IV”) and Silverleaf Finance V, L.P., (“SF-V”). SF-II, SF-IV and SF-V are all described in more detail under the heading “Debt” in Note 8. Silverleaf Resort Acquisitions, Inc. and eStarCommunications, Inc. were both dissolved during the fourth quarter of 2004. Bull’s Eye Marketing, Inc. was dissolved during the third quarter of 2005. Historical operations of these dissolved entities are insignificant.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUMMARY

Basis of Presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, our results of operations and changes in our cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, excluding Silverleaf Finance I, Inc., our wholly-owned qualified special purpose entity dissolved during the third quarter of 2005 (“SF-I”), and Silverleaf Finance III, LLC, a wholly-owned off-balance sheet qualified special purpose finance subsidiary, formed during the third quarter of 2005 (“SF-III”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of SFAS No. 152 — In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 152, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions” (“SFAS No. 152”). SFAS No. 152 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, and is to be reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. Accordingly, we adopted SFAS No. 152 effective January 1, 2006. However, we did not have a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as our adoption of SFAS No. 152 had an immaterial impact on our prior years’ results. SFAS No. 152 amends Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate”, to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 04-2, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions” (“SOP 04-2”). This Statement also amends Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects”, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. SFAS No. 152 provides guidance on determining revenue recognition for timeshare transactions, evaluation of uncollectibility of Vacation Interval receivables, accounting for costs of Vacation Interval sales, operations during holding periods (or incidental operations), and other accounting transactions specific to time share operations. Restatement or reclassification of previously reported financial statements is not permitted. Accordingly, as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 152, our financial statements for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2006 are not comparable, in all respects, with those prepared for periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2005.
 
F-7

 
Specifically, SFAS No. 152 requires the following changes to our accounting for time-sharing transactions:

 
·
The relative sales value method of recording Vacation Interval cost of sales has been amended to include estimated future defaults of uncollectible sales and the subsequent resale of the recovered Vacation Intervals reacquired on future cancelled sales in our total estimate of revenues we expect to earn on a project.

 
·
The estimated uncollectible revenue on Vacation Interval sales excludes an estimate for the value of inventory recoveries. Prior to SFAS No. 152 we included a reduction to our provision for uncollectible notes for our estimate of inventory recoveries.

 
·
The estimated uncollectible revenue (i.e. provision for uncollectible notes) is recorded as a reduction to Vacation Interval sales rather than as an expense, as it was previously recorded prior to SFAS No. 152.

 
·
Revenues related to sampler contracts, which entitle the prospective owner to sample a resort during certain periods, have been and will continue to be deferred until the customer uses the stay or allows the contract to expire. Effective January 1, 2006, sampler sales and related costs are accounted for as incidental operations, whereby incremental costs in excess of incremental revenue are charged to expense as incurred and the operations are presented as a net expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Conversely, incremental revenue in excess of incremental costs is recorded as a reduction of inventory in the consolidated balance sheet. Incremental costs include costs that would not have been incurred had we not sold samplers. During the year ended December 31, 2006, all sampler sales were recorded as a reduction to sales and marketing expense since direct and incremental costs of sampler sales exceeded incremental sampler sales. Prior to SFAS No. 152, sampler sales were reported separately as revenue.

Revenue and Expense Recognition — A substantial portion of Vacation Interval sales are made in exchange for mortgage notes receivable, which are secured by a deed of trust on the Vacation Interval sold. We recognize the sale of a Vacation Interval under the full accrual method after a binding sales contract has been executed, the buyer has made a down payment of at least 10%, and the statutory rescission period has expired. If all accrual method criteria are met except that significant development costs remain to complete the project or phase, revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis. Under this method, the amount of revenue recognized (based on the sales value) at the time a sale is recognized is measured by the relationship of costs already incurred to the total of costs already incurred and estimated future costs to complete the development of the phase. The remaining amount is deferred and recognized as the remaining costs are incurred. There were no sales deferred at December 31, 2006 related to the percentage-of-completion method.

Both of the above methods employ the relative sales value method in accounting for costs of sales and inventory, which are applied to each phase separately. Generally, we consider each building a separate phase. Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 152, in determining relative sales value, an estimate of uncollectibility is used to reduce the estimate of total Vacation Interval revenue under the project, both actual to date plus expected future revenue. The relative sales value method is used to allocate inventory cost and determine cost of sales in conjunction with a sale. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is estimated as a percentage of net sales using a cost of sales percentage which represents the ratio of total estimated cost, including both costs already incurred plus estimated costs to complete the phase, if any, to total estimated Vacation Interval revenue under the project. Common costs, including amenities, are allocated to inventory cost among the phases that those costs are expected to benefit, and are included in total estimated costs.

The estimate of total revenue for a phase, which includes both actual to date revenues and expected future revenues, incorporates factors such as actual or estimated uncollectibles, changes in sales mix and unit sales prices, repossessions of intervals, effects of upgrade programs, and past and expected sales programs to sell slow moving inventory units. On at least a quarterly basis, we evaluate the estimated cost of sales percentage, using updated information for total estimated phase revenue and total estimated phase costs, both actual to date and expected in the future. The effects of changes in estimates are accounted for in the period in which they first become known on a retrospective basis using a current period adjustment.

Certain Vacation Interval sales transactions are deferred until the minimum down payment has been received. We account for these transactions utilizing the deposit method. Under this method, the sale is not recognized, a receivable is not recorded, and inventory is not relieved. Any cash received is carried as a deposit until the sale can be recognized. When these types of sales are cancelled without a refund, deposits forfeited are recognized as income and the interest portion is recognized as interest income. This income is not significant.

In addition to sales of Vacation Intervals to new prospective owners, we sell additional and upgraded Vacation Intervals to existing owners. Revenues are recognized on an additional Vacation Interval sale, which is a new interval sale that is treated as a separate transaction from the original Vacation Interval for accounting purposes, when the buyer makes a down payment of at least 10%, excluding any equity from the original Vacation Interval purchased. Revenues are recognized on an upgrade Vacation Interval sale, which is a modification and continuation of the original sale, by including the buyer’s equity from the original Vacation Interval towards the down payment of at least 10%. The additional accrual method criteria described above must also be satisfied for revenue recognition of additional and upgraded Vacation Intervals. The revenue recognized on upgrade Vacation Interval sales is the difference between the upgrade sales price and traded-in sales price, and cost of sales is the incremental increase in the cost of the Vacation Interval purchased.

We recognize interest income as earned. Interest income is accrued on notes receivable, net of an estimated amount that will not be collected, until the individual notes become 90 days delinquent. Once a note becomes 90 days delinquent, the accrual of interest income ceases until collection is deemed probable.

We receive fees for management services provided to Silverleaf Club and Orlando Breeze Resort Club. These revenues are recognized on an accrual basis in the period the services are provided if collection is deemed probable.

Services and other income are recognized on an accrual basis in the period service is provided.

Sales and marketing costs are charged to expense in the period incurred. Commissions, however, are recognized in the same period as the revenue is recognized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid investments with an original maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents include cash, certificates of deposit, and money market funds.

Restricted Cash— Restricted cash consists of certificates of deposit that serve as collateral for construction bonds and cash restricted for repayment of debt.

Investment in Special Purpose Entities  We were party to a $75 million revolving credit agreement to finance Vacation Interval notes receivable through SF-I, an off-balance-sheet qualified special purpose entity through July 2005. Sales of notes receivable from the Company to SF-I that met certain underwriting criteria occurred on a periodic basis. SF-I funded these purchases through advances under a credit agreement arranged for this purpose.

In August 2005, we closed a securitization transaction with SF-III which is a qualified special purpose entity formed for the purpose of issuing $108.7 million of Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes Series 2005-A (“Series 2005-A Notes”) in a private placement during the third quarter of 2005. The Series 2005-A Notes are secured by timeshare receivables sold to SF-III by the Company pursuant to a transfer agreement between us and SF-III. Under that agreement, we sold to SF-III approximately $132.8 million in timeshare receivables that were previously pledged as collateral under revolving credit facilities with our senior lenders and SF-I. The proceeds from the sale of the timeshare receivables to SF-III were used to pay off in full the credit facility of SF-I and to pay down amounts we owed under our senior credit facilities. The timeshare receivables we sold to SF-III are without recourse, except for breaches of certain representations and warranties at the time of sale. We are responsible for servicing the timeshare receivables purchased by SF-III pursuant to the terms of the agreement and will receive a fee for our services. Such fees received approximate our internal cost of servicing such timeshare receivables, and approximates the fee a third party would receive to service such receivables. As a result, the related servicing asset or liability was estimated to be insignificant.

We account for and evaluate our investment in special purpose entities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (“SFAS No. 140”), EITF 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, as applicable. The gain or loss on the sale is determined based on the proceeds received, the fair value assigned to the investment in special purpose entities, and the recorded value of notes receivable sold. The fair value of the investment in special purpose entities is estimated based on the present value of future cash flows we expect to receive from the notes receivable sold. We utilized the following key assumptions to estimate the fair value of such cash flows related to SF-I: customer prepayment rate - ranging from 2.3% to 4.3%; expected accounts paid in full as a result of upgrades - ranging from 5.8% to 6.2%; expected credit losses - ranging from 5.6% to 8.1%; discount rate - ranging from 13.5% to 19%; base interest rate - ranging from 3.3% to 4.4%; agent fee - ranging from 2% to 2.37%; and loan servicing fees - 1%. We utilized the following key assumptions to estimate the fair value of such cash flows related to SF-III: customer prepayment rate (including expected accounts paid in full as a result of upgrades) - 15.9%; expected credit losses - 8.81% to 11.38%; discount rate - 15% to 21.5%; base interest rate - 5.37%; and loan servicing fees - 1.75%. Our assumptions are based on experience with our notes receivable portfolio, available market data, estimated prepayments, the cost of servicing, and net transaction costs. Such assumptions are assessed quarterly and, if necessary, adjustments are made to the carrying value of the investment in special purpose entities on a prospective basis as a change in accounting estimate, with the amount of periodic interest accretion adjusted over the remaining life of the beneficial interest. The carrying value of the investment in special purpose entities represents our maximum exposure to loss regarding our involvement with our special purpose entities.

Allowance for Uncollectible Notes — Beginning January 1, 2006, estimated uncollectible revenue, which is an offset to Vacation Interval sales, is recorded at an amount sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible notes at a level management considers adequate to provide for anticipated losses resulting from customers' failure to fulfill their obligations under the terms of their notes. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 152, this line item was recorded as an expense: provision for uncollectible notes. The allowance for uncollectible notes is adjusted based upon periodic analysis of the notes receivable portfolio, historical credit loss experience, and current economic factors.

Credit losses take three forms. The first is the full cancellation of the note, whereby the customer is relieved of the obligation and we recover the underlying inventory. The second form is a deemed cancellation, whereby we record the cancellation of all notes that become 90 days delinquent, net of notes that are no longer 90 days delinquent. The third form is the note receivable reduction that occurs when a customer trades a higher value product for a lower value product. In estimating the allowance, we project future cancellations and credit losses for each sales year by using historical cancellations experience.

The allowance for uncollectible notes is reduced by actual cancellations and losses experienced, including losses related to previously sold notes receivable which became delinquent and were reacquired pursuant to the recourse obligations discussed herein. Recourse to the Company on sales of customer notes receivable is governed by the agreements between the purchasers and the Company.

Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost includes amounts for land, construction materials, amenities and common costs, direct labor and overhead, taxes, and capitalized interest incurred in the construction or through the acquisition of resort dwellings held for timeshare sale. Timeshare unit costs are capitalized as inventory and are allocated to cost of Vacation Interval sales based upon their relative sales values.

We estimate the total cost to complete all amenities at each resort. This cost includes both costs incurred to date and expected costs to be incurred. At December 31, 2006, the estimated costs not yet incurred, which are expected to complete promised amenities was $2.1 million. We allocate the estimated promised and completed amenities cost to cost of Vacation Interval sales based on Vacation Intervals sold in a given period as a percentage of total Vacation Intervals expected to sell over the life of a particular resort project.

The relative sales value method of recording Vacation Interval cost of sales has been amended by SFAS No. 152 beginning January 1, 2006 to include estimated future defaults of uncollectible sales and the subsequent resale of the recovered Vacation Intervals reacquired on future cancelled sales in our total estimate of revenues we expect to earn on a project. We periodically review the carrying value of our inventory on an individual project basis for impairment, to ensure that the carrying value does not exceed market value.

Land, Equipment, Buildings, and Leasehold Improvements— Land, equipment (including equipment under capital lease), buildings, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. When assets are disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; significant betterments and renewals, which extend the useful life of a particular asset, are capitalized. Depreciation is calculated for all fixed assets, other than land, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets, ranging from 3 to 20 years. We periodically review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
 
F-10

 
Prepaid and Other Assets— Prepaid and other assets consists primarily of prepaid insurance, prepaid postage, commitment fees, debt issuance costs, deferred commissions, novelty inventories, deposits, collected cash in senior lender lock boxes which has not yet been applied to the loan balances by the senior lenders, and miscellaneous receivables. Commitment fees and debt issuance costs are amortized over the life of the related debt.

Income Taxes— Deferred income taxes are recorded for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities as recognized by tax laws and their carrying value as reported in the consolidated financial statements. A provision is made or benefit recognized for deferred income taxes relating to temporary differences for financial reporting purposes. To the extent a deferred tax asset does not meet the criteria of “more likely than not” for realization, a valuation allowance is recorded. Our federal tax return includes all items of income, gain, loss, expense and credit of SF-III, since it is a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. We have a tax sharing agreement with SF-III.

Derivative Financial Instruments — We follow Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) as amended, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative financial instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and hedging activities.  All derivatives, whether designed as hedging relationships or not, are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings.

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) — Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Earnings per share assuming dilution is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive shares outstanding. The number of potentially dilutive shares is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes that the increase in the number of common shares resulting from the exercise of the stock options is reduced by the number of common shares that we could have repurchased with the proceeds from the exercise of the stock options.

Outstanding stock options totaling 2,777,147; 2,270,657 and 1,996,807 were dilutive securities that were included in the computation of diluted EPS at December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Outstanding stock options totaling 874,500, 867,000 and 827,000 were not dilutive at December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively, because the exercise price for such options exceeded the market price for our common shares.

Stock-Based Compensation  In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Share-Based Payment, revised SFAS No. 123R, effective for the next fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. Accordingly, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options. Under the new standard, we are no longer able to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, or the pro forma disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, as if we had accounted for our employee stock options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. Instead, we are required to account for such transactions using a fair-value method and recognize the expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

We adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, for all stock options granted on or prior to December 31, 2005 that remain outstanding as of that date, compensation cost is recognized for the unvested portion over the remaining requisite service period, using the fair value for these options as estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 for pro-forma disclosure purposes. Furthermore, compensation cost will be recognized for any stock option grants issued, modified, repurchased, or canceled after December 31, 2005. We recognized $252,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006.

See Note 10 under the heading “Equity” for a table that illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share had we applied the fair-value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to our outstanding stock option grants as of the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

There were no stock options granted during 2004. There were 267,000 stock options granted during 2005 with an exercise price of $1.62 per share and a fair value of $1.59 per share. The fair value of the stock options granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility ranging from 143.2% to 264.4% for all grants, risk-free interest rates which vary for each grant and range from 4.1% to 12.2%, expected life of 7 years for all grants, and no distribution yield for all grants.

There were no stock options granted, forfeited, or expired during 2006. There were 313,850 stock options exercised during 2006 at a weighted average exercise price of $0.315 per share. At December 31, 2006 there is $230,000 of unamortized compensation expense related to the stock option grants during 2005, which will be fully recognized by August 2008.

Use of Estimates— The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of management’s estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Significant management estimates include the allowance for uncollectible notes, estimates for taxes, valuation of SF-III, and the future sales plan and estimated recoveries used to allocate certain costs to inventory phases and cost of sales.

Revised Statements of Cash Flows Presentation — In previously issued Statements of Cash Flows, we reported the operating and investing activities of our discontinued operations on a combined basis as a single amount. In 2006, we separately disclosed those activities within the Company’s other operating and investing activities. There were no activities from discontinued operations during 2006, however during 2005 we previously disclosed a net use of cash for operating activities of $841,000 and in 2004 we previously disclosed net cash provided by operating activities of $389,000 pertaining to discontinued operations. In addition, we have revised both the 2005 and 2004 Statements of Cash Flows to reflect cash restricted for repayment of debt as a financing activity rather than an operating activity, in the amounts of $312,000 and $2.5 million, respectively.

Our 2005 and 2004 Statements of Cash Flows presentation have been adjusted as follows to reflect these revisions (in thousands):

Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements  

SFAS No. 155 - In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (“SFAS No. 155”). SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 140. The statement applies to certain hybrid financial instruments, which are instruments that contain embedded derivatives. The new standard establishes a requirement to evaluate beneficial interests in securitized financial assets to determine if the interests represent freestanding derivatives or are hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation. This new standard also permits an election for fair value re-measurement of any hybrid financial instrument containing an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133. The fair value election can be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis to existing instruments at the date of adoption and can be applied to new instruments on a prospective basis. This statement shall be effective for all financial instruments acquired, issued, or subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event occurring after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The fair value election provided for in paragraph 4(c) of this Statement may also be applied upon adoption of this Statement for hybrid financial instruments that had been bifurcated under paragraph 12 of Statement 133 prior to the adoption of this Statement. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year, provided the entity has not yet issued financial statements, including financial statements for any interim period for that fiscal year. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 156 - In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (“SFAS No. 156”). The statement allows for the adoption of the fair value method of accounting for servicing assets, as opposed to the lower of amortized cost or market value, including mortgage servicing rights, which represent an entity’s right to a future stream of cash flows based upon the contractual servicing fee associated with servicing mortgage loans. The statement is effective as of the beginning of any fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2006. We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

FIN No. 48 - In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN No. 48”). FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

SFAS No. 157 - In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which clarifies that the term fair value is intended to mean a market-based measure, not an entity-specific measure, and gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets in determining fair value.  SFAS No. 157 requires disclosures about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect of fair value measures on earnings.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

SAB 108 - In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of prior-year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying misstatements in the current year financial statements. SAB 108 requires registrants to quantify misstatements using both an income statement (“rollover”) and balance sheet (“iron curtain”) approach and evaluate whether either approach results in a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. If prior year errors that had been previously considered immaterial now are considered material based on either approach, no restatement is required so long as management properly applied its previous approach and all relevant facts and circumstances were considered. If prior years are not restated, the cumulative effect adjustment is recorded in opening accumulated earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006, with earlier adoption encouraged. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 159 - In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), which allows an irrevocable election to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with unrealized gains and losses recognized currently in earnings. Under SFAS No. 159, the fair value option may only be elected at the time of initial recognition of a financial asset or financial liability or upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Additionally, SFAS No. 159 provides that application of the fair value option must be based on the fair value of an entire financial asset or financial liability and not selected risks inherent in those assets or liabilities. SFAS No. 159 requires that assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value pursuant to the fair value option be reported in the financial statements in a manner that separates those fair values from the carrying amounts of similar assets and liabilities which are measured using another measurement attribute. SFAS No. 159 also provides expanded disclosure requirements regarding the effects of electing the fair value option on the financial statements. SFAS No. 159 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years in which interim financial statements have not been issued, provided that all of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 are early adopted as well. We are currently assessing the financial impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

3.  CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK

Credit Risk — We are exposed to credit risk related to our notes receivable.

We offer financing to the buyers of Vacation Intervals at our resorts. These buyers generally make a down payment of at least 10% of the purchase price and deliver a promissory note to us for the balance. The promissory notes generally bear interest at a fixed rate, are payable over a seven-year to ten-year period, and are secured by a first mortgage on the Vacation Interval. We bear the risk of default on these promissory notes. Although we prescreen prospects by credit scoring them in the early stages of the marketing and sales process, we generally do not perform a detailed credit history review of our customers.

If a buyer of a Vacation Interval defaults, we generally must foreclose on the Vacation Interval and attempt to resell it; the associated marketing, selling, and administrative costs from the original sale are not recovered; and such costs must be incurred again to resell the Vacation Interval. Although in many cases we may have recourse against a Vacation Interval buyer for the unpaid price, certain states have laws that limit our ability to recover personal judgments against customers who have defaulted on their loans. Accordingly, we have not generally pursued this remedy.

Interest Rate Risk — We have historically derived net interest income from our operating activities because the interest rates we charge our customers who finance the purchase of their Vacation Intervals exceed the interest rates we pay to our senior lenders. Because 38% of our indebtedness bears interest at variable rates and our customer receivables bear interest at fixed rates, increases in interest rates will erode the spread in interest rates that we have historically obtained and could cause the rate on our borrowings to exceed the rate at which we provide financing to our customers. Therefore, any increase in interest rates, particularly if sustained, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
 
F-13

 
To partially offset an increase in interest rates, we have engaged in two interest rate hedging transactions, or derivatives, related to our conduit loan with SF-II, for a notional amount of $39.3 million at December 31, 2006, that expires between September 2011 and March 2014. Our variable funding note (“VFN”) with SF-IV also acts as an interest rate hedge since it contains a provision for an interest rate cap, however there are no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 2006.

In addition, the Series 2005-A Notes related to our off-balance sheet special purpose finance subsidiary, SF-III, with a balance of $52.3 million at December 31, 2006, bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 5.4%, and the Series 2006-A Notes related to SF-V bear interest at a blended fixed rate of 6.7%.

Availability of Funding Sources — We fund substantially all of our notes receivable, timeshare inventories, and land inventories which we originate or purchase with borrowings through our financing facilities, sales of notes receivable, internally generated funds, and proceeds from public debt and equity offerings. Borrowings are in turn repaid with the proceeds we receive from repayments of such notes receivable. To the extent that we are not successful in maintaining or replacing existing financings, we would have to curtail our operations or sell assets, thereby having a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.

Geographic Concentration — Our notes receivable are primarily originated in Texas (where approximately 61% of Vacation Interval sales took place in 2006), Missouri, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Georgia. The risk inherent in such concentrations is dependent upon regional and general economic stability, which affects property values and the financial stability of the borrowers. Our Vacation Interval inventories are concentrated in Texas, Missouri, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Georgia. The risk inherent in such concentrations is in the continued popularity of the resort destinations, which affects the marketability of our products and the collection of notes receivable.

4.  NOTES RECEIVABLE

We provide financing to the purchasers of Vacation Intervals, which are collateralized by their interest in such Vacation Intervals. The notes receivable generally have initial terms of seven to ten years. The average yield on outstanding notes receivable at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was approximately 15.7% and 15.3%, respectively, with individual rates ranging from 0% to 17.5%. The Vacation Interval notes receivable with interest rates of 0% originated between 1997 and 2003, and have an outstanding balance at December 31, 2006 of approximately $156,000. In connection with the sampler program, we routinely enter into notes receivable with terms of 10 months. Notes receivable from sampler sales were $2.3 million and $3.1 million at December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively, and are non-interest bearing.

We ceased accruing interest on delinquent notes of $30.3 million and $38.2 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively, as collection of interest on such notes was deemed improbable.  

Notes receivable are scheduled to mature as follows at December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

There were no notes sold with recourse during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006.

We sold $27.4 million and $8.0 million, respectively, of notes receivable to SF-I and recognized pre-tax gains of $1.9 million and $669,000, respectively, during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005. In conjunction with these sales, we received cash consideration of $20.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, which was primarily used to pay down borrowings under our revolving loan facilities. SF-I funded all of these purchases through advances under a credit agreement arranged for this purpose.

During the third quarter of 2005, we closed a term securitization transaction with SF-III, which is a qualified special purpose entity formed for the purpose of issuing $108.7 million of its Series 2005-A Notes in a private placement through UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”). The Series 2005-A Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture (“Indenture”) between Silverleaf, as servicer of the timeshare loans, SF-III, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Indenture Trustee, Custodian, Backup Servicer, and Account Intermediary. The Series 2005-A Notes were issued in four classes ranging from Class A through Class D notes with a blended fixed rate of 5.4%.
 
F-14

 
The Series 2005-A Notes are secured by timeshare receivables sold to SF-III by us pursuant to a transfer agreement between us and SF-III. Under that agreement, we sold to SF-III approximately $132.8 million in timeshare receivables that were previously pledged as collateral under revolving credit facilities with our senior lenders and SF-I, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $5.8 million. In connection with this sale, we received gross cash consideration of $108.7 million, which was primarily used to pay off in full the credit facility of SF-I and to pay down amounts we owed under credit facilities with our senior lenders. Simultaneous with the sale of the timeshare receivables to SF-III, SF-I was dissolved, and notes receivable net of allowance for uncollectible notes of $62.9 million and notes payable of $50.4 million were assumed from SF-I, along with other assets, liabilities, and equity of $12.5 million. The timeshare receivables we sold to SF-III are without recourse to us, except for breaches of certain representations and warranties at the time of sale.

At December 31, 2006, SF-III held notes receivable totaling $62.7 million, with related borrowings of $52.3 million. We are responsible for servicing the timeshare receivables pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and will receive a fee for our services equal to 1.75% of eligible receivables held by the facility. Such fees were $1.1 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. We also serviced notes receivable sold to SF-I for a fee of 1% of eligible receivables held by SF-I. We received fees of $684,000 and $355,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively, for servicing those receivables. Such fees received approximate our internal cost of servicing such receivables, and approximates the fee a third party would receive to service such receivables. As a result, the related servicing asset or liability was estimated to be insignificant.

Except for the repurchase of timeshare receivables that fail to meet initial eligibility requirements, we are not obligated to repurchase defaulted or any other contracts sold to SF-III. As the Servicer of the notes receivable sold to SF-III, we are obligated by the terms of the conduit facility to foreclose upon the Vacation Interval securing a defaulted note receivable. We may, but are not obligated to, purchase the foreclosed Vacation Interval for an amount equal to the net fair market value of the Vacation Interval if the net fair market value is no less than fifteen percent of the original acquisition price that the customer paid for the Vacation Interval. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, we paid approximately $386,000 and $2.1 million, respectively, to repurchase the Vacation Intervals securing defaulted contracts to facilitate the re-marketing of those Vacation Intervals. We had a similar arrangement in place with SF-I in regard to repurchasing the Vacation Intervals securing defaulted contracts. For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, we paid approximately $2.5 million and $988,000, respectively, at public auction to repurchase defaulted Vacation Intervals from SF-I.
 
In the event cash flows from the notes receivable held by the special purpose entities are sufficient to pay all debt service obligations, fees, and expenses, we may receive distributions from the special purpose entities. For the year ended December 31, 2005, we received $4.3 million in cash distributions from SF-I. We received distributions of $1.6 million and $16.6 million from SF-III during 2005 and 2006, respectively.

We consider accounts over 60 days past due to be delinquent. As of December 31, 2006, $4.7 million of notes receivable, net of accounts charged off, were considered delinquent. An additional $27.5 million of notes, of which $24.7 million is pledged to senior lenders, would have been considered to be delinquent, had we not granted payment concessions to the customers, which brings a delinquent note current and extends the maturity date if two consecutive payments are made.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 152, we provided for estimated Vacation Interval defaults at the time the Vacation Interval revenue was recorded by a charge to the provision for uncollectible notes and an increase to the allowance for uncollectible notes. The provision was calculated as the estimated future losses for newly originated Vacation Intervals offset by estimated future recoveries of inventory. Beginning January 1, 2006 with the adoption of SFAS No. 152, we now record estimated uncollectible revenue as a reduction to Vacation Interval sales. The estimated uncollectible revenue is calculated as gross losses for newly originated Vacation Intervals and does not include an offset for inventory recoveries, which is now a component of the relative sales value method.

The allowance for uncollectible notes was 22.8% and 22.9% of gross notes receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. We will continue our current collection programs and seek new programs to reduce note defaults and improve the credit quality of our customers. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

We report substantially all Vacation Interval sales, which we finance, on the installment method for federal income tax purposes. Under the installment method, we do not recognize income on sales of Vacation Intervals until we receive the down payment or installment payment on customer receivables. Interest is imposed, however, on the amount of tax attributable to the installment payments for the period beginning on the date of sale and ending on the date the payment is received. If we are otherwise not subject to tax in a particular year, no interest is imposed since the interest is based on the amount of tax paid in that year. The consolidated financial statements do not contain an accrual for any interest expense that would be paid on the deferred taxes related to the installment method. The amount of interest expense is not estimable as of December 31, 2006.

We have been subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) as a result of the deferred income that results from the installment sales treatment of Vacation Interval sales for regular tax purposes. The AMT liability creates a deferred tax asset in the form of a minimum tax credit, which, unless otherwise limited, reduces any future tax liability from regular federal income tax. This deferred tax asset has an unlimited carryover period. We estimate our AMT liability for 2006 is approximately $7.2 million, with the result that we will have total minimum tax credits of approximately $8.5 million as of December 31, 2006. We also anticipate that we will pay significant AMT in future years.

We applied for and received refunds of AMT of $8.3 million and $1.6 million during 2001 and 2002, respectively, as the result of the carryback of our 2000 AMT loss to 1999, 1998, and 1997. Due to AMT losses, including carryforwards, we did not have any AMT liability in 2001 and 2002. Therefore, our current minimum tax credits are not limited by the ownership change discussed below.

The federal net operating losses (“NOL”) expire between 2019 through 2021. Realization of the deferred tax assets arising from the NOL is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the loss carryforwards.
 
F-17


Due to a restructuring in 2002, an ownership change within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Internal Revenue Code (“the Code”) occurred. As a result, our NOL is subject to an annual limitation for the current and future taxable years. This annual limitation may be increased for any recognized built-in gain to the extent allowed in Section 382(h) of the Code. There is an annual limitation of approximately $768,000, which was the value of our stock immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the applicable long term tax exempt rate. We believe that approximately $36.2 million of our net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2006, are subject to the Section 382 limitations.

The following are the expiration dates and the approximate net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

We have $264.3 million available funding under our current debt facilities. At December 31, 2006, the LIBOR rates on our senior credit facilities were 5.32% (1 month) and 5.37% (3 month) and the Prime rate on these facilities was 8.25%.

Financial Covenants Under Senior Credit Facilities.

The Company’s senior credit facilities discussed above provide certain financial covenants that we must satisfy. Any failure to comply with the financial covenants in any single loan agreement will result in a cross default under the various facilities. Certain of the above debt agreements include restrictions on the Company's ability to pay dividends based on minimum levels of net income and cash flow. The debt agreements contain covenants including requirements that the Company (i) preserve and maintain the collateral securing the loans; (ii) pay all taxes and other obligations relating to the collateral; and (iii) refrain from selling or transferring the collateral or permitting any encumbrances on the collateral. The debt agreements also contain restrictive covenants, which include (i) restrictions on liens against and dispositions of collateral, (ii) restrictions on distributions to affiliates and prepayments of loans from affiliates, (iii) restrictions on changes in control and management of the Company, (iv) restrictions on sales of substantially all of the assets of the Company, and (v) restrictions on mergers, consolidations, or other reorganizations of the Company. Under certain credit facilities, a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, a merger, consolidation, or reorganization of the Company, or other changes of control of the ownership of the Company, would constitute an event of default and permit the senior lenders to accelerate the maturity thereof.
 
F-18


Such credit facilities also contain operating covenants as of December 31, 2006, requiring us to (i) maintain a minimum tangible net worth, the most restrictive being to maintain a minimum tangible net worth at all times greater than the tangible net worth as of December 31, 2004, or $132.1 million, plus 50% of the aggregate amount of net income after December 31, 2004, sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of sales below 55.0% for the latest rolling 12 months, maintain notes receivable delinquency rate below 10%, maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1 for the latest rolling 12 months, maintain positive net income for each year end, and for any two consecutive fiscal quarters, maintain a leverage ratio of at least 6.0 to 1, and maintain a minimum weighted average FICO Credit Bureau Score of 640 for all fiscal calendar quarter sales with respect to which a FICO score can be obtained; (ii) maintain our legal existence and be in good standing in any jurisdiction where we conduct business; (iii) maintain our management agreement with our Resorts; and (iv) refrain from modifying or terminating certain timeshare documents. The credit facilities also include customary events of default, including, without limitation (i) failure to pay principal, interest, or fees when due, (ii) untruth of any representation of warranty, (iii) failure to perform or timely observe covenants, (iv) defaults under other indebtedness, and (v) bankruptcy.

In December 2003, we closed a $66.4 million conduit term loan transaction through a wholly-owned financing subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance II, Inc. This conduit loan was arranged through one of our existing senior lenders. Under the terms of the conduit loan, we sold approximately $78.1 million of our Vacation Interval receivables to our subsidiary SF-II for an amount equal to the aggregate principal balances of the receivables. The purchase of these receivables was financed by the existing senior lender through a one-time advance to SF-II of $66.4 million, which is approximately 85% of the outstanding balance of the receivables SF-II purchased from us. All customer receivables that we transferred to SF-II have been pledged as security to the senior lender. The senior lender also received as additional collateral a pledge of all of our equity interest in SF-II and a $15.7 million demand note from us to SF-II under which payment may be demanded if SF-II defaults on its loan from the senior lender. There is no additional recourse to the Company other than SF-II and the demand note. Proceeds from the sale of the receivables to SF-II were used to pay down approximately $65.5 million of amounts outstanding under our senior revolving credit facilities. The senior lender's conduit loan to SF-II will mature in 2014 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 7.035%.

In June 2004, we completed an offer to exchange $24.7 million in principal amount of our 6% senior subordinated notes due 2007 for $24.7 million in principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2010 and a cash payment of approximately $271,000, representing accrued, unpaid interest from April 1, 2004 through June 6, 2004.

During 2005, we entered into a $26.3 million amendment and expansion of our conduit term loan agreement with SF-II. Under the terms of the amendment, we sold approximately $31.0 million of notes receivable and received cash proceeds of approximately $26.3 million. The new conduit term loan with SF-II will mature in 2011 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 7.9%. We also entered into receivables and inventory loan agreements with three new senior lenders during 2005. These new loan agreements contain a cumulative borrowing capacity of $155 million, are due between April 2008 and December 2011, and bear interest at rates ranging from Prime plus 0.5% to Prime plus 2%. We also consolidated, amended, and restated the receivable facilities with another senior lender, and paid in full the $20.7 million of term loans and $6.0 million under one inventory loan we had outstanding with that same senior lender. We also paid in full the aggregate outstanding balance of $37.8 million we had outstanding under receivables and inventory loans with two other senior lenders.

During the first quarter of 2006 we closed a $100 million revolving senior credit facility through a newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. SF-IV was formed for the purpose of issuing a $100 million variable funding note to UBS. During the fourth quarter of 2006 the facility was amended to increase the availability from $100 million to $125 million. The funding period was originally scheduled to end in March 2007 but was extended to December 2008, and the interest rate on advances by UBS to SF-IV was reduced from the initial rate of LIBOR plus 1.5% to LIBOR plus 1.25%. The revised facility will mature in December 2010. The VFN is secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV. Proceeds from the sale of customer notes receivable to SF-IV are used to fund normal business operations and for general working capital purposes. The VFN was issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between SF-IV, UBS, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee. We will service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-IV under the terms of an agreement with the indenture trustee and SF-IV.

In August 2006, we closed a $128 million term securitization transaction through a newly-formed, wholly-owned and consolidated special purpose finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. SF-V was formed for the purpose of issuing approximately $128.0 million of its Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes Series 2006-A in a private offering and sale through UBS. The Series 2006-A Notes were issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture between ourselves as servicer, SF-V, as issuer, Silverleaf Finance V, LLC, as general partner of SF-V, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee, custodian, backup servicer, and account intermediary. The Series 2006-A Notes were issued in seven classes ranging from Class A through Class G notes with a blended fixed rate of 6.7%, and have a final maturity of July 2018.

The Series 2006-A Notes are secured by customer notes receivable sold to SF-V by SF-IV and Silverleaf in three separate transactions from August 2006 to November 2006. The original amount of notes receivable purchased by SF-V to secure the Series 2006-A Notes was $155.1 million and the balance of eligible notes receivable pledged as collateral at December 31, 2006 was $132.2 million. The proceeds from the sale of the customer notes receivable to SF-V were primarily used to pay down consolidated indebtedness to senior lenders. All customer notes receivable purchased by SF-V are being acquired without recourse, except in the case of breaches of customary representations and warranties made in connection with the sale of the notes. We will continue to service the customer notes receivable sold to SF-V under the terms of the indenture and will receive a fee for our services.
 
F-19


Notes payable secured by customer notes receivable require that collections from customers be remitted to the senior lenders upon receipt. In addition, we are required to calculate the appropriate “Borrowing Base” for each note payable monthly. Such Borrowing Base determines whether the loans are collateralized in accordance with the applicable loan agreements and whether additional amounts can be borrowed. In preparing the monthly Borrowing Base reports for the senior lenders, we have classified certain notes as eligible for Borrowing Base that might be considered ineligible in accordance with the loan agreements. A significant portion of the potentially ineligible notes relates to cancelled notes from customers who have upgraded to a higher value product and notes that have been subject to payment concessions.

We have developed programs under which customers may be granted payment concessions in order to encourage delinquent customers to make additional payments. The effect of these concessions is to extend the term of the customer notes. Upon granting a concession, we consider the customer account to be current. Under our notes payable agreements, customer notes that are less than 60 days past due are considered eligible as Borrowing Base. As of December 31, 2005 and 2006, a total of $28.3 million and $24.8 million of customer notes, respectively, have been considered eligible for Borrowing Base purposes which would have been considered ineligible had payment concessions and the related reclassification as current not been granted. In addition, as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, approximately $125,000 and $349,000, respectively, of cancelled notes from customers who have upgraded to a different product have been treated as eligible for Borrowing Base purposes.

As of December 31, 2006, eligible customer notes receivable with a face amount of $263.3 million and interval inventory of $41.0 million were pledged as collateral.

9.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are currently subject to litigation arising in the normal course of our business. From time to time, such litigation includes claims regarding employment, tort, contract, truth-in-lending, the marketing and sale of Vacation Intervals, and other consumer protection matters. Litigation has been initiated from time to time by persons seeking individual recoveries for themselves, as well as, in some instances, persons seeking recoveries on behalf of an alleged class. In our judgment, none of the lawsuits currently pending against us, either individually or in the aggregate, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial position.

Various legal actions and claims may be instituted or asserted in the future against us and our subsidiaries, including those arising out of our sales and marketing activities and contractual arrangements. Some of the matters may involve claims, which, if granted, could be materially adverse to our financial position.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. We will establish reserves from time to time when deemed appropriate under generally acceptable accounting principles. However, the outcome of a claim for which we have not deemed a reserve to be necessary may be decided unfavorably against us and could require us to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts or a range of amounts that could be materially adverse to our business, results of operations, or financial position.

We have entered into noncancelable operating leases covering office and storage facilities and equipment, which will expire at various dates through 2012. The total rental expense incurred during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006 was $2.3 million, $2.2 million, and $2.7 million, respectively. We have also acquired equipment by entering into capital leases.

We also have a $15.7 million demand note with SF-II, our wholly owned on-balance sheet conduit financing subsidiary that is not included, since the note represents only a potential, future cash outlay, and in addition, is eliminated on a consolidated basis.

At December 31, 2006, we had notes receivable (including notes unrelated to Vacation Intervals) in the approximate principal amount of $297.8 million with an allowance for uncollectible notes of approximately $68.1 million.

Periodically, we enter into employment agreements with certain executive officers, which provide for minimum annual base salaries and other fringe benefits as determined by our Board of Directors. Certain of these agreements provide for bonuses based on our operating results. The agreements have varying terms of up to three years and typically can be terminated by either party upon 30 days notice, subject to severance provisions. Certain employment agreements provide that such person will not directly or indirectly compete with the Company in any county in which it conducts its business or markets its products for a period of two years following the termination of the agreement. These agreements also provide that such persons will not influence any employee or independent contractor to terminate its relationship with us or disclose any of our confidential information.

10. EQUITY
 
Our stock option plans provide for the award of nonqualified stock options to directors, officers, and key employees, and the grant of incentive stock options to salaried key employees. Nonqualified stock options provide for the right to purchase common stock at a specified price which may be less than or equal to fair market value on the date of grant (but not less than par value). Nonqualified stock options may be granted for any term and upon such conditions determined by our Board of Directors. We have reserved 3.8 million shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to our stock option plans.

Outstanding options have a graded vesting schedule, with equal installments of shares vesting up through three years from the original grant date. These options are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.29 to $25.50 per share and expire 10 years from the date of grant.

The aggregate intrinsic value of our outstanding and exercisable options at December 31, 2006 is $7.9 million and $7.3 million, respectively, with weighted average remaining lives of 6.9 years and 6.7 years, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options exercised during each of the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 was $31,000, $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

We adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, for all stock options granted on or prior to December 31, 2005 that remain outstanding as of that date, compensation cost is recognized for the unvested portion over the remaining requisite service period, using the fair value for these options as estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 for pro-forma disclosure purposes. The fair value of the stock options granted is estimated using the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility ranging from 143.2% to 264.4% for all grants, risk-free interest rates which vary for each grant and range from 4.1% to 12.2%, expected life of 7 years for all grants, and no distribution yield for all grants.

Compensation cost will be recognized for any stock option grants issued, modified, repurchased, or canceled after December 31, 2005. We recognized $252,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share had we applied the fair-value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to our outstanding stock option grants as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R (in thousands, except per share amounts):

11. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”), the water and utility property assets and liabilities were designated as held for sale effective December 31, 2004. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of these properties are included in income from discontinued operations.

On March 11, 2005, we sold the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of our timeshare resorts for an aggregate sales price of $13.1 million, which resulted in a pretax gain of $879,000 during the third quarter of 2005, once all conditions of the sale were met. The purchasers of the utilities are Algonquin Water Resources, of Texas, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Missouri, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Illinois, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of America, Inc., a Delaware corporation; and Algonquin Power Income Fund, an open-ended investment trust established under the laws of Ontario, Canada (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Certain of the Purchasers have entered into a services agreement to provide uninterrupted water supply and waste water treatment services to our eight timeshare resorts to which the transferred utility assets relate. The Purchasers will charge our timeshare resorts the tariffed rate for those utility services that are regulated by the states in which the resorts are located. For any unregulated utility services, the Purchasers will charge a rate set in accordance with the ratemaking procedures of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The proceeds of our sale of these utility assets were used to reduce senior debt in accordance with our loan agreements with our senior lenders.
 
F-22

 
Notwithstanding the closing of this sale of utilities assets, our agreement with the Purchasers contains provisions relating to the required post-closing receipt of customary governmental approvals from utility regulators in Missouri and Texas. During the third quarter of 2005, the Purchasers received governmental approval from the utility regulators in Missouri. Approval from the utility regulators in Texas is still pending at this time. However, we entered into an amendment during July 2006 in which the deadline for obtaining required approvals from the appropriate Texas regulatory agencies was extended from September 2006 to March 2007. During February 2007, the deadline for obtaining approval from the Texas regulatory agencies was extended another 90 days from March 2007 to June 2007. If the Purchasers do not receive required approvals from Texas regulators relating to the utility assets in Texas (the “Texas Assets”) by June 2007, the Texas Assets will be reconveyed to us, the transaction involving the Texas Assets will be rescinded, and we will be obligated to return to the Purchasers approximately $6.2 million of the purchase price attributable to the Texas Assets.

12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Each timeshare owners’ association (except for the Club at Orlando Breeze) has entered into a management agreement with Silverleaf Club, which authorizes the Clubs to manage the resorts. Silverleaf Club has in turn entered into a management agreement with the Company, whereby we supervise the management and operations of the resorts. Pursuant to the management agreement with Silverleaf Club, we earn a maximum management fee equal to 15% of gross revenues of Silverleaf Club, but our right to receive such a fee on an annual basis is limited to the amount of Silverleaf Club's net income. However, if we do not receive the maximum fee, such deficiency is deferred for payment to succeeding years, subject again to the annual net income limitation. The Silverleaf Club management agreement is effective through March 2010, and will continue year-to-year thereafter unless cancelled by either party. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, we recorded management fees of $1.2 million, $1.9 million, and $1.9 million, respectively, in management fee income.

Orlando Breeze has its own Club, Orlando Breeze Resort Club, which operates independently of Silverleaf Club; however, we supervise the management and operation of the Orlando Breeze Resort Club under the terms of a written agreement. The management agreement with Orlando Breeze Resort Club provides for a maximum annual management fee equal to 15% of gross revenues of Orlando Breeze Resort Club, but our right to receive such a fee on an annual basis is limited to the amount of Orlando Breeze Resort Club’s net income. However, if we do not receive the maximum fee, such deficiency is deferred for payment to succeeding years, subject again to the annual net income limitation. As of December 31, 2006, we have not received payment of management fees from Orlando Breeze Resort Club.

The direct expenses of operating the resorts are paid by the Clubs. To the extent the Clubs provide payroll, administrative, and other services that directly benefit the Company, we are charged a separate allocation by the Clubs. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, we incurred $252,000, $266,000, and $312,000, respectively, of expenses under these agreements. Likewise, to the extent we provide payroll, administrative, and other services that directly benefit the Clubs, we charge a separate allocation to the Clubs. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, we charged the Clubs $3.3 million, $3.3 million, and $3.3 million, respectively, under these agreements.

During 2001, Silverleaf Club entered into a loan agreement for $1.8 million, whereby we guaranteed such debt with certain of our assets. Silverleaf Club’s related note payable balance of $161,000 was paid in full during November 2005.

At December 31, 2005 and 2006, the amount due to our special purpose entities primarily relates to upgrades of sold notes receivable. Upgrades represent sold notes that are replaced by new notes when holders of said notes upgrade to a more valuable Vacation Interval.

The William H. Francis Trust (the “Trust”), a trust for which one of our directors serves as trustee, is entitled to a 10% net profits interest from sales of certain land in Mississippi. The net profits interest was granted to the Trust pursuant to a Net Profits Agreement dated July 20, 1995, between the Trust and a subsidiary of the Company, which was dissolved after its assets and liabilities, including the Net Profits Agreement, were acquired by the Company. Pursuant to the Net Profits Agreement, the affiliate agreed to provide consulting services to us. During 2006, we paid the Trust $58,744 under the Net Profits Agreement due to the sale of land subject to the net profits interest. As of December 31, 2006, we own less than 2 acres of developable land that is subject to this net profits interest.

As a 2003 bonus to Mr. Mead, the Compensation Committee approved assigning to him approximately 449 acres of flood plain land owned by the Company. We also agreed to quitclaim to Mr. Mead all of our rights, including reversionary rights from the Sabine River Authority (“SRA”), in two other tracts of flood plain land of approximately 619 and 466 acres each, which were owned by the SRA but held by the Company and a homeowner's association under a long term ground lease. The Compensation Committee determined that the aggregate market value at December 31, 2003 of our ownership interests and other rights in these three tracts of flood plain land was approximately $73,000. This determination of market value was based upon an independent appraisal from an independent appraisal firm retained by the Compensation Committee. Our basis in these three tracts of flood plain land was zero, and we had an offsetting gain of approximately $73,000 in adjusting it to fair value at December 31, 2003. Subsequently, in February 2005 the Board of Directors (with Mr. Mead abstaining) approved a correction of the 2003 bonus transaction to make a county road the dividing line between the properties. This involved a conveyance of approximately 25 acres back to us, the conveyance of approximately 42 acres to Mr. Mead, and a cash payment by Mr. Mead for the 17 acre difference based on market value, as previously determined by the independent appraiser retained by the Compensation Committee.

During 2004, we retained the services of Francis Enterprises, Inc., a government affairs consulting firm owned by Mr. Francis, to advise us with respect to certain regulatory actions taken by the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission in implementing the national do-not-call list. We paid Mr. Francis' firm $75,000 during 2004 for such services. No payments were made to Francis Enterprises, Inc. during 2005 or 2006.

During 2005, we retained the services of TradeMark Consulting, Co. (“TradeMark”), a consulting company owned and operated by Thomas J. Morris, who became one of our executive officers in August 2005. Mr. Morris entered into an employment agreement with us which provided that the Independent Contractor Consulting Agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) we had with Trademark would not be affected by the employment agreement and that Mr. Morris’ operation of such company would not be a violation of the noncompetition provisions of his employment agreement. The Consulting Agreement provided for certain bonuses to be paid upon Silverleaf’s completion of specified financing transactions. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, as amended, with TradeMark, we paid TradeMark $375,324 in fees and other contractual payments as provided for by the Consulting Agreement. These fees and payments were for services rendered before Mr. Morris became one of our executive officers in August 2005. We paid Mr. Morris’ company a bonus of $100,000 in 2006 as a result of the completion of a financing transaction on March 2, 2006. The Consulting Agreement terminated on March 15, 2006.

13.  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, amounts due from or to affiliates, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the relatively short-term nature of the financial instruments. The carrying value of the notes receivable approximates fair value because the weighted average interest rate on the portfolio of notes receivable approximates current interest rates to be received on similar current notes receivable. The carrying value of notes payable and capital lease obligations approximates their fair value because the interest rates on these instruments are adjustable or approximate current interest rates charged on similar current borrowings.
 
F-24


We had senior subordinated notes of $33.2 million and $31.5 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The estimated fair value of these senior subordinated notes at December 31, 2005 and 2006 was approximately $20.8 million and $19.7 million, respectively, based on the market value of notes exchanged in the Exchange Offer in 2002. However, these notes were not traded on a regular basis and were therefore subject to large variances in offer prices. Accordingly, the estimated fair value may not be indicative of the amount at which a transaction could be completed.

Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

14.  SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

All subsidiaries of the Company, except SF-II, SF-III, SF-IV, and SF-V have guaranteed the $31.5 million of senior subordinated notes. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning each guaranteeing subsidiary (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary”) are not presented herein because the guarantee of each Guarantor Subsidiary is full and unconditional and joint and several, and each Guarantor Subsidiary is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and together comprise all of our direct and indirect subsidiaries.
 
The Guarantor Subsidiaries had no operations for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006. Combined summarized balance sheet information of the Guarantor Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, is as follows (in thousands):

15.  401(k) PLAN

Our 401(k) plan (the “Plan”), a qualified defined contribution retirement plan, covers employees 21 years of age or older who have completed six months of service. The Plan allows eligible employees to defer receipt of up to 15% of their compensation and contribute such amounts to various investment funds. The employee contributions vest immediately. We are not required by the Plan to match employee contributions, however, we may do so on a discretionary basis. We incurred nominal administrative costs related to maintaining the Plan and made no contributions to the Plan during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006.

As discussed under the heading “Significant Accounting Policies Summary” in Note 2, in 2006 we changed our accounting for real estate time-sharing transactions in connection with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 152, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions, and changed our accounting for stock-based compensation in connection with the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. As a result, some of the amounts for 2005 may not be comparable to 2006.

17.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We entered into a consolidated, amended and restated loan and security agreement (the “Agreement”) with Textron Financial Corporation effective February 21, 2007. Our current receivables and inventory financing arrangements were consolidated into one facility, with a reduction in the interest rate on the “receivables component” from Prime Rate plus 1% to Prime Rate. The interest rate on advances under the “acquisition component” and the “inventory component” of the consolidated debt are now Prime Rate plus 1%. The interest rates charged under our prior inventory loan agreements with Textron were the Prime Rate plus 3% and LIBOR plus 3.25%. The funding period has been extended from June 2008 to January 2010. The receivables component matures on January 31, 2013, and the acquisition and inventory component each mature on January 31, 2012.

(h) Failure to Deposit Proceeds.

(c) Judgment. Reduce Lender’s claim to judgment, foreclose or otherwise enforce Lender’s security interest in all or any part of the Collateral by any available judicial or other procedure under law.
 
80

 
(d) Sale of Collateral and Foreclosure of Mortgages. Inventory Mortgages and Real Property Mortgages. After notification, if any, provided for in Section 9.2 below, Lender may sell or otherwise dispose of, at the office of Lender, or elsewhere, as chosen by Lender, all or any part of the Collateral, and any such sale or other disposition may be as a unit or in parcels, by public or private proceedings, and by way of one or more contracts (it being agreed that the sale of any part of the Collateral shall not exhaust Lender’s power of sale, but sales may be made from time to time until all of the Collateral has been sold or until the Obligations have been paid in full and fully performed), and at any such sale it shall not be necessary to exhibit the Collateral, including, without limitation, foreclosure of the Inventory Mortgages and the Real Property Mortgages. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that a private sale or sales of the Collateral, after notification as provided for in Section 9.2, shall constitute a commercially reasonable disposition of the Collateral sold at any such sale or sales, and otherwise, commercially reasonable action on the part of Lender.
 
(e) Retention of Collateral. At Lender’s discretion, retain such portion of the Collateral as shall aggregate in value to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Loans, in satisfaction of the Obligations, whenever the circumstances are such that Lender elects to do so under applicable law.
 
(f) Receiver. Apply by appropriate judicial proceedings for appointment of a receiver for the Collateral, or any part thereof, and Borrower hereby consents to any such appointment.
 
(g) Purchase of Collateral. Buy the Collateral at any public or private sale.
 
(h) Exercise of Other Rights. Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code and other legal and equitable rights to which it may be entitled, including, without limitation, and without notice to Borrower, the right to continue to collect all payments made on the Pledged Notes Receivable, and to apply such payments to the Obligations, and to sue in its own name the maker of any defaulted Pledged Notes Receivable. Lender may also exercise any and all other rights or remedies afforded by any other applicable laws or by the Loan Documents as Lender shall deem appropriate, at law, in equity or otherwise, including, but not limited to, the right to bring suit or other proceeding, either for specific performance of any covenant or condition contained in the Loan Documents or in aid of the exercise of any right or remedy granted to Lender in the Loan Documents. Lender shall also have the right to require Borrower to assemble any of the Collateral not in Lender’s possession, at Borrower’s expense, and make it available to Lender at a place to be determined by Lender which is reasonably convenient to both parties, and shall have the right to take immediate possession of all of the Collateral, and may enter the Resorts or any of the premises of Borrower or wherever the Collateral shall be located, with or without process of law wherever the Collateral may be, and, to the extent such premises are not the property of Lender, to keep and store the same on said premises until sold (and if said premises be the property of Borrower, Borrower agrees not to charge Lender for use and occupancy, rent, or storage of the Collateral, for a period of at least ninety (90) days after sale or disposition of the Collateral).
 
81

 
9.2 Notice of Sale. Reasonable notification of time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or reasonable notification of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made shall be sent to Borrower and to any other person entitled under the Code to notice; provided, however, that if the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender may sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral without notification, advertisement or other notice of any kind. It is agreed that notice sent not less than five (5) calendar days prior to the taking of the action to which such notice relates is reasonable notification and notice for the purposes of this Section 9.2. Lender shall have the right to bid at any public or private sale on its own behalf. Out of money arising from any such sale, Lender shall retain an amount equal to all of its costs and charges, including attorneys’ fees for advice, counsel or other legal services or for pursuing, reclaiming, seeking to reclaim, taking, keeping, removing, storing and advertising such Collateral for sale, selling same and any and all other charges and expenses in connection therewith and in satisfying any prior Liens thereon. Any balance shall be applied upon the Obligations, and in the event of deficiency, Borrower shall remain liable to Lender. In the event of any surplus, such surplus shall be paid to Borrower or to such other Persons as may be legally entitled to such surplus. If, by reason of any suit or proceeding of any kind, nature or description against Borrower, or by Borrower or any other party against Lender or any Lender, which in such Lender’s sole discretion makes it advisable for Lender to seek counsel for the protection and preservation of Lenders’ security interest, or to defend the interest of Lender, such expenses and counsel fees shall be allowed to Lender and the same shall be made a further charge and Lien upon the Collateral.
 
In view of the fact that federal and state securities laws may impose certain restrictions on the methods by which a sale of Collateral comprised of Securities may be effected after an Event of Default, Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence or existence of an Event of Default, Lender may from time to time, attempt to sell all or any part of such Collateral by means of a private placement restricting the bidding and prospective purchasers to whose who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for investment only and not for, or with a view to, distribution. In so doing, Lender may solicit offers to buy such Collateral, or any part of it for cash, from a limited number of investors deemed by Lender, in its reasonable judgment, to be responsible parties who might be interested in purchasing the Collateral, and if Lender solicits such offers from not less than two (2) such investors, then the acceptance by Lender of the highest offer obtained therefrom shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of disposition of such Collateral.
 
9.3 Application of Collateral; Termination of Agreements. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default: (i) Lender may, with or without proceeding with such sale or foreclosure or demanding payment or performance of the Obligations, without notice, terminate Lender’s further performance under this Agreement or any other agreement or agreements between Lender and Borrower, without further liability or obligation by Lender; (ii) Lender may, at any time, appropriate and apply on any Obligations any and all Collateral in its, the Custodian’s, or the Lockbox Agent’s possession and (iii) Lender may apply any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts, reserves, indebtedness or other moneys due or owing to Borrower held by Lender hereunder or under any other financing agreement or otherwise, whether accrued or not. Neither such termination, nor the termination of this Agreement by lapse of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, shall absolve, release or otherwise affect the liability of Borrower in respect of transactions prior to such termination, or affect any of the Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies of Lender, but they shall, in all events, continue until all of the Obligations are satisfied.
 
82

 
9.4 Rights of Lender Regarding Collateral. In addition to all other rights possessed by Lender, Lender, at its option, may on its own behalf from time to time after there shall have occurred an Event of Default, and so long as such Event of Default remains uncured, at its sole discretion, take the following actions:
 
(a) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of Lender or its nominee;
 
(b) take control of any proceeds of any of the Collateral;
 
(c) extend or renew the Loan and grant releases, compromises or indulgences with respect to the Obligations, any portion thereof, any extension or renewal thereof, or any security therefor, to any obligor hereunder or thereunder; and
 
(d) exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
 
9.5 Delegation of Duties and Rights. Lender may execute any of its duties and/or exercise any of its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents by or through its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or other representatives.
 
9.6 Lender not in Control. Except as expressly provided herein or in any Loan Document, none of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement or in any Loan Document shall give Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs and/or management of Borrower.
 
9.7 Waivers. The acceptance by Lender at any time and from time to time of partial payments of the Loan or performance of the Obligations shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default then existing. No waiver by Lender of any Event of Default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent Event of Default. No delay or omission by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver thereof or an acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy under the Loan Documents or otherwise. Further, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or by applicable law, Borrower and each and every surety, endorser, guarantor and other party liable for the payment or performance of all or any portion of the Obligations, severally waive notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default, presentment and demand for payment, protest, and notice of protest, notice of intention to accelerate, acceleration and nonpayment, and agree that their liability shall not be affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment of the Loan, or by any release or change in any security for the payment or performance of the Loan, regardless of the number of such renewals, extensions, releases or changes.
 
83

 
9.8 Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies available to Lender under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative of and in addition to all other rights and remedies granted under any of the Loan Document, at law or in equity, whether or not the Loan is due and payable and whether or not Lender shall have instituted any suit for collection or other action in connection with the Loan Documents.
 
9.9 Expenditures by Lender. Any sums expended by or on behalf of Lender pursuant to the exercise of any right or remedy provided herein shall become part of the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default Rate, from the date of such expenditure until the date repaid.
 
9.10 Diminution in Value of Collateral. Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for any diminution or loss in value of any of the Collateral, specifically including that which may arise from Lender’s negligence or inadvertence, whether such negligence or inadvertence is the sole or concurring cause of any damage.
 
9.11 Lender’s Knowledge. Lender shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default unless Lender has actual knowledge of the Event of Default or has received a notice from Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such Event of Default. 
 
Section 10-Certain Rights Of Lenders
 
10.1 Protection of Collateral. Lender may at any time and from time to time take such actions as it deems necessary or appropriate to protect Lender’s Liens and security interests in and to preserve the Collateral, and to establish, maintain and protect the enforceability of Lender’s rights with respect thereto, all at the expense of Borrower. Borrower agrees to cooperate fully with all of Lender’s efforts to preserve the Collateral and Lender’s Liens, security interests and rights and will take such actions to preserve the Collateral and Lender’s Liens, security interests and rights as Lender may direct, including, without limitation, by promptly paying upon Lender’s demand therefor, all documentary stamp taxes or other taxes that may be or may become due in respect of any of the Collateral. All of Lender’s expenses of preserving the Collateral and Lender’s liens and security interests and rights therein shall be added to the Loan.
 
10.2 Performance by Lender. If Borrower fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Lender may itself perform, or cause the performance of, such agreement on behalf of Lenders, and the expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower under Section 10.5 below. In no event, however, shall Lender have any obligation or duties whatsoever to perform any covenant or agreement of Borrower contained herein or in any of the Loan Documents, Timeshare Documents or Operating Contracts, and any such performance by Lender shall be wholly discretionary with Lender. The performance by Lender, of any agreement or covenant of Borrower on any occasion shall not give rise to any duty on the part of Lender to perform any such agreements or covenants on any other occasion or at any time. In addition, Borrower acknowledges that Lender shall not at any time or under any circumstances whatsoever have any duty to Borrower or to any third party to exercise any of Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder.
 
84

 
10.3 No Liability of Lender. Neither the acceptance of this Agreement by Lender, nor the exercise of any rights hereunder by Lender on its behalf, shall be construed in any way as an assumption by Lender of any obligations, responsibilities or duties of Borrower arising in connection with any Resort or under the Timeshare Documents or Timeshare Acts, or any of the Operating Contracts, or in connection with any other business of Borrower, or the Collateral, or otherwise bind Lender to the performance of any obligations with respect to any Resort or the Collateral; it being expressly understood that Lender shall not be obligated to perform, observe or discharge any obligation, responsibility, duty, or liability of Borrower with respect to any Resort or any of the Collateral, or under any of the Timeshare Documents, the Timeshare Acts or under any of the Operating Contracts, including, but not limited to, appearing in or defending any action, expending any money or incurring any expense in connection therewith. Without limitation of the foregoing, neither this Agreement, any action or actions on the part of Lender taken hereunder, nor the acquisition of the Pledged Notes Receivable and the Mortgages by Lender prior to or following the occurrence of an Event of Default shall constitute an assumption by Lender of any obligations of Borrower with respect to any Resort or the Pledged Notes Receivable, the Real Property, the Inventory, the Inventory Mortgages, the Real Property Mortgages, the Mortgages or any documents or instruments executed in connection therewith, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all of its obligations thereunder or with respect thereto. Borrower agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, suits, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs, asserted against or incurred by Lender by reason of, arising out of, or connected in any way with (i) any failure or alleged failure of Borrower to perform any of its covenants or obligations with respect to each Resort or the Purchasers of any of the Intervals, (ii) a breach of any certification, representation, warranty or covenant of Borrower set forth in any of the Loan Documents, (iii) the ownership of the Pledged Notes Receivable, the Mortgages and the rights, titles and interests assigned hereby, or intended so to be, (iv) the debtor-creditor relationships between Borrower on the one hand, and the Purchasers or Lender, as the case may be, on the other, or (v) the Pledged Notes Receivable, the Mortgages or the operation of the Resorts or sale of Intervals. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify, protect, defend and hold Lender harmless as provided in this Agreement are absolute, unconditional, present and continuing, and shall not be dependent upon or affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any claim, demand or suit from which Lender is indemnified. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.3 shall survive the satisfaction of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement, and remain binding and enforceable against Borrower, or its successors or assigns. Borrower hereby waives all notices with respect to any losses, damages, liabilities, suits, costs and expenses, and all other demands whatsoever hereby indemnified, and agrees that its obligations under this Agreement shall not be affected by any circumstances, whether or not referred to above, which might otherwise constitute legal or equitable discharges of its obligations hereunder.
 
10.4 Right to Defend Action Affecting Security. Lender may, at Borrower’s expense, appear in and defend any action or proceeding at law or in equity which Lender in good faith believes may affect the security interests granted under this Agreement, including without limitation, with respect to Pledged Notes Receivable, the Real Property, the Inventory, the Real Property Mortgages, the Inventory Mortgages or Mortgages, the value of the Collateral or Lender’s rights under any of the Loan Documents.
 
85

 
10.5 Expenses. All expenses payable by Borrower, under any provision of this Agreement shall be an Obligation of Borrower and shall be paid by Borrower to Lender, upon demand, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of expense until repaid by Borrower.
 
10.6 Lender’s Right of Set-Off. Lender shall have the right to set-off against any Collateral any Obligations then due and unpaid by Borrower, provided Borrower is in Default.
 
10.7 No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, remedy or power under this Agreement or in giving or insisting upon strict performance by Borrower hereunder or in giving notice hereunder shall operate as a waiver of the same or any other power or right, and no single or partial exercise of any such power or right shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such power or right. Lender, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Borrower of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to be performed by Borrower. The collection and application of proceeds, the entering and taking possession of the Collateral, and the exercise by Lender of the rights of Lender contained in the Loan Documents and this Agreement shall not cure or waive any default, or affect any notice of default, or invalidate any acts done pursuant to such notice. No waiver by Lender of any breach or default of or by any party hereunder shall be deemed to alter or affect Lender’s rights hereunder with respect to any prior or subsequent default.
 
10.8 Right of Lender to Extend Time of Payment, Substitute, Release Security, Etc. Without affecting the liability of any Person or entity including without limitation, any Purchasers, for the payment of any of the Obligations or without affecting or impairing Lender’s Lien on the Collateral, or the remainder thereof, as security for the full amount of the Loan unpaid and the Obligations, Lender may from time to time, without notice: (a) release any Person liable for the payment of the Loan, (b) extend the time or otherwise alter the terms of payment of the Loan, (c) accept additional security for the Obligations of any kind, including deeds of trust or mortgages and security agreements, (d) alter, substitute or release any property securing the Obligations, (e) realize upon any collateral for the payment of all or any portion of the Loan in such order and manner as it may deem fit, or (f) join in any subordination or other agreement affecting this Agreement or the lien or charge thereof.
 
10.9 Assignment of Lender’s Interest. Lender shall have the right to assign all or any part of the Loans and all or any portion of its rights in or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to any subsequent holder or holders of its Note or the Obligations evidenced thereby.
 
10.10 Notice to Purchaser. Borrower authorizes any of Lender, Lockbox Agent or Servicing Agent (but none of Lender, Lockbox Agent nor Servicing Agent shall be obligated) to communicate at any time and from time to time with any Purchaser or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable under a Pledged Note Receivable with regard to the Lien of Lender thereon and any other matter relating thereto, and by no later than the Effective Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a notification to the Purchasers executed in blank by Borrower and in form acceptable to Lender, pursuant to which the Purchasers (or other obligors) may be directed to remit all payments in respect of the Collateral as Lender may require.
 
86

 
10.11 Collection of the Notes. Borrower hereby directs and authorizes each party liable for the payment of the Pledged Notes Receivable, and by no later than the Effective Date shall direct in writing each such party, to pay each installment thereon to Lockbox Agent pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, unless and until directed otherwise by written notice from Lender or, at Lender’s direction, from Borrower, after which such parties are and shall be directed to make all further payments on the Pledged Notes Receivable in accordance with the directions of Lender.
 
Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to require that all payments becoming due under the Pledged Notes Receivable be paid directly to Lender, and Lender is hereby authorized to receive, collect, hold and apply the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender or Lockbox Agent does not receive any installment of principal or interest due and payable under any of the Pledged Notes Receivable on or prior to the date upon which such installment becomes due, Lender may, at its election (but without any obligation to do so), give or cause Lockbox Agent to give notice of such default to the defaulting party or parties, and Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation), subject to the terms of such Notes, to accelerate payment of the unpaid balance of any of the Pledged Notes Receivable in default and to foreclose each of the Mortgages securing the payment thereof, and to enforce any other remedies available to the holder of such Pledged Notes Receivable with respect to such default. Borrower hereby further authorizes, directs and empowers Lender (and Lockbox Agent or any other Person as may be designated by Lender in writing) to collect and receive all checks and drafts evidencing such payments and to endorse such checks or drafts in the name of Borrower and upon such endorsements, to collect and receive the money therefor. The right to endorse checks and drafts granted pursuant to the preceding sentence is irrevocable by Borrower, and the banks or banks paying such checks or drafts upon such endorsements, as well as the signers of the same, shall be as fully protected as though the checks or drafts have been endorsed by Borrower.
 
10.12 Power of Attorney. Borrower does hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for Borrower and in Borrower’s name, place and stead, or otherwise, to (a) endorse any checks or drafts payable to Borrower in the name of Borrower and in favor of Lender on behalf of each Lender as provided in Section 10.11 above, (b) to demand and receive from time to time any and all property, rights, titles, interests and liens hereby sold, assigned and transferred, or intended so to be, and to give receipts for same, (c) from time to time to institute and prosecute in Lender’s own name any and all proceedings at law, in equity, or otherwise, that Lender may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, of any kind, in and to the property, rights, titles, interests and liens hereby sold, assigned or transferred, or intended so to be, and to defend and compromise any and all actions, suits or proceedings in respect of any of the said property, rights, titles, interests and liens, (d) upon an Event of Default to change Borrower’s post office mailing address, and (e) generally to do all and any such acts and things in relation to the Collateral as Lender shall in good faith deem advisable. Borrower hereby declares that the appointment made and the powers granted pursuant to this Section 10.12 are coupled with an interest and are and shall be irrevocable by Borrower in any manner, or for any reason, unless and until a release of the same is executed by Lender and duly recorded in the appropriate public records of Dallas County, Texas.
 
87

 
10.13 Relief from Automatic Stay, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by law, in the event Borrower shall make application for or seek relief or protection under the federal bankruptcy code (“Bankruptcy Code”) or other Debtor Relief Laws, or in the event that any involuntary petition is filed against Borrower under such Code or other Debtor Relief Laws, and not dismissed with prejudice within 45 days, the automatic stay provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code are hereby modified as to Lender to the extent necessary to implement the provisions hereof permitting set-off and the filing of financing statements or other instruments or documents; and Lender shall automatically and without demand or notice (each of which is hereby waived) be entitled to immediate relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to Lender as provided in the Loan Documents.
 
Section 11-Term Of Agreement
 
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the security interests granted hereby and the duties, covenants and liabilities of Borrower hereunder and all the terms, conditions and provisions hereof relating thereto shall continue to be fully operative until all of the Obligations have been satisfied in full. Borrower expressly agrees that if Borrower makes a payment to Lender, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or otherwise required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Laws, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such repayment, the Obligations or any part thereof intended to be satisfied and the Liens provided for hereunder securing the same shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

12.3 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT AS MAY BE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED THEREIN TO THE CONTRARY) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND, EXCLUSIVE OF ITS CHOICE OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
 
12.4 Limitation on Interest. Lender and Borrower intend to comply at all times with applicable usury laws. All agreements between Lender and Borrower, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of demand or acceleration of the maturity of the Note or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to Lender exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable usury laws. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, of the Note or of any other Loan Documents shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by any law which a Court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if from any circumstance Lender shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal of Loan and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Loan, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal so that the interest on the Loan for such full period shall not exceed the highest lawful rate. Borrower agrees that in determining whether or not any interest payment under the Loan Documents exceeds the highest lawful rate, any non-principal payment (except payments specifically described in the Loan Documents as “interest”) including without limitation, prepayment fees and late charges, shall to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest. Lender hereby expressly disclaims any intent to contract for, charge or receive interest in an amount which exceeds the highest lawful rate. The provisions of the Note, this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents are hereby modified to the extent necessary to conform with the limitations and provisions of this Section, and this Section shall govern over all other provisions in any document or agreement now or hereafter existing. This Section shall never be superseded or waived unless there is a written document executed by Lender and Borrower, expressly declaring the usury limitation of this Agreement to be null and void, and no other method or language shall be effective to supersede or waive this paragraph.
 
12.5 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term thereof, such provision shall be fully severable, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof or thereof, and the remaining provisions hereof or thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement and/or the Loan Documents (as the case may be) a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.
 
90

 
12.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided that Borrower may not transfer or assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of Lender. This Agreement and the transactions provided for or contemplated hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents are intended solely for the benefit of the parties hereto. No third party shall have any rights or derive any benefits under or with respect to this Agreement, the Commitment or the other Loan Documents except as provided in advance in a writing signed on behalf of Lender.
 
12.7 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified, and no term or provision hereof may be waived, except by written instrument signed by Borrower and Lender.
 
12.8 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signature thereto and hereto were on the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon Lender’s receipt of one or more counterparts hereof signed by Borrower.
 
12.9 Lender Not Fiduciary. The relationship between Borrower and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no term or provision of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor.
 
12.10 Return of Notes Receivable. 
 
(a) In the event Borrower complies with its Obligations under Section 2.5(a)(ii) of this Agreement with respect to Pledged Notes Receivable pursuant to which a default by the Purchaser thereof has occurred, and Borrower thereafter desires to enforce such Note Receivable against the Purchaser thereof, then provided that no Event of Default has occurred which has not been cured to Lender’s satisfaction (as evidenced by a written acceptance of such cure executed by Lender), and no event has occurred which with notice, the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, then within thirty (30) days after its receipt of a written request from Borrower, Lender shall deliver such ineligible Note Receivable to Borrower, provided that such delivery shall be for the sole purpose of enforcing Lender’s rights thereunder and Lender, notwithstanding such delivery, shall continue to have a first priority security interest in any such note.
 
(b) In the event that all Obligations hereunder are fully satisfied, then within a reasonable time thereafter, Lender shall endorse the Pledged Notes Receivable “Pay to the order of Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. without recourse”, and deliver such Pledged Notes Receivable, together with any other nonrecourse Collateral reassignment documents requested and prepared by Borrower, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense.
 
12.11 Accounting Principles. Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made for the purposes of this Agreement, the same shall be determined or made in accordance with GAAP consistently applied at the time in effect, to the extent applicable, except where such principles are inconsistent with the requirements of this Agreement.
 
91

 
12.12 Total Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Exhibits and Schedules to them, is the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, incorporates or rescinds all prior agreements and understandings between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, cannot be changed or terminated orally or by course of conduct, and shall be deemed effective as of the date it is accepted by Lender at the offices set forth above.
 
12.13 Litigation. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND OR CLARIFY ANY RIGHT, POWER, REMEDY OR DEFENSE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN, WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE, OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY; AND EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. FURTHER, BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER, NOR LENDER’S COUNSEL HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO LENDER’S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
 
The waiver and stipulations of Borrower and Lender in this Section 12.13 shall survive the final payment or performance of all of the Obligations of Borrower and the resulting termination of this Agreement.
 
12.14 Incorporation of Exhibits. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits and Schedules hereto, constitute one document and agreement which is referred to herein by the use of the defined term “Agreement.” Such Exhibits and Schedules are incorporated herein as to fully set out in this Agreement. The definitions contained in any part of this Agreement shall apply to all parts of this Agreement.
 
12.15 Consent to Advertising and Publicity of Timeshare Documents. Borrower hereby consents that Lender may issue and disseminate to the public information describing the credit accommodation entered into pursuant to this Agreement, including the names and addresses of Borrower and any subsidiaries and Affiliates, the amount and a general description of Borrower’s business.
 
92

 
12.16 Directly or Indirectly. Where any provision in the Agreement refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provisions shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.
 
12.17 Headings. Section headings have been inserted in the Agreement as a matter of convenience of reference only; such section headings are not a part of the Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of this Agreement.
 
12.18 Gender and Number. Words of any gender in this Agreement shall include each other gender and the singular shall mean the plural and vice versa where appropriate.

Attention: Jake Welsh

Re: $35,000,000 Receivables Financial Accommodation by Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc., Individually and as Agent to Silverleaf Resorts, Inc., dated as of December 16, 2005 as amended by a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement Receivables dated as of October 6, 2006 (the "Loan Agreement")

Dear Mr. Welsh:

Pursuant to discussions between us, you have offered and the undersigned, SILVERLEAF RESORTS, INC., has agreed to:

A.  Modify the Loan Agreement effective as of the date of execution of this communication by you in the following respects:

1. The definition of Applicable Interest Rate shall be deleted and the following definition shall be substituted in lieu therefore:

Applicable Interest Rate. A variable rate, adjusted as of each day of each calendar month, equal to the Lender Reference Rate, with interest being computed in arrears on the basis of actual days elapsed over a year of 360 days, but in no event shall the rate of interest at any time during the Term be less than six (6.00%) percent (a "Floating Rate Advance"). The Lender Reference Rate on the date of this communication is 8.25%; and

2. The introductory sentences to Section 2.3 of the Loan Agreement shall be deleted and the following shall be substituted in lieu therefore:

2.3 Payments. From and after the Closing Date, Borrower agrees punctually to pay or cause to be paid to Agent, as Agent for each Lender, all principal and interest due under the Note in respect of the Loans and if applicable the Unused Line Fee. Interest, the Unused Line Fee and all other fees payable hereunder shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the fast day of each month at any time that Obligations are outstanding. Borrower shall make the following payments on the Loan:

3. Section 2.6 of the Loan Agreement shall be deleted and the following Section 2.6 shall be substituted in lieu therefore:

2.6 Fees.

a. Fee Letter Fees.  As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, Borrower shall pay to Agent the fees set forth in the Fee Letter; and
 
 
 

 

b. Unused Line Fee.  Monthly with the payment of interest, the pro rata portion of a fee equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum of the difference between the Commitment ($35,000,000) and the average amount outstanding during the prior calendar month, provided however that the Unused Line Fee shall only be due and payable in the event that Borrower, between the ninetieth (90th)  and one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the date of Wells Fargo Foothill's acknowledgement, agreement and consent to this modification, fails to maintain average outstanding Advances of Ten Million ($10,000,000) Dollars.

Our signature below and the delivery to you shall constitute our agreement to the above.

We further confirm in connection with our Agreement, that we, as Borrower, acknowledge that we do not have any offsets, defenses or claims against you, as Lender, Agent or Holder, or any of your officers, agents, directors or employees whether asserted or unasserted. To the extent that we may have any such offsets, defenses or claims, we and each of our respective successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, employees and agents as applicable, jointly and severally, release and forever discharge you, as Lender, Agent or Holder, your subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns, both present and former (collectively the "Lender Affiliates") of and from any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, suits, debts, controversies, damages, judgments, executions, claims and demands whatsoever, asserted or unasserted, in law or in equity which against you, as Lender, Agent or Holder and/or Lender Affiliates we or any of our respective successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, employees and agents ever had, now have, upon or by reason of any manner, cause, causes or thing whatsoever, including, without limitation, any presently existing claim or defense whether or not presently suspected, contemplated or anticipated.
