  Risk Pool Indemnity]
  from Company:

(A)   Repurchase Agreement:   The Company shall provide repurchase support through a repurchase agreement of even date herewith ("Repurchase



-5-


   

Agreement") as more fully set forth in said Repurchase Agreement. The execution and delivery of the Repurchase Agreement is a condition precedent to this Program Agreement's becoming effective.

     
   

(B)   Risk Pool Indemnity.   TFC shall provide inventory financing to certain Builders, to be determined through mutual written agreement of the parties, which may not otherwise qualify for credit approval under normal Textron Financial credit underwriting standards (the "Risk Pool"). From time to time the parties shall prepare a writing designating the Builders included in the Risk Pool. In addition to and separate from any obligations of the Company under the Repurchase Agreement, and on an annual calendar year basis ("Contract Year"), the maximum amount the Company shall be liable to Textron Financial for regarding this indemnity shall be the lesser of (i) 20% of the average annual net outstandings on all Textron Financial company Risk Pool accounts calculated on a past 12 full month rolling basis (beginning 12 months after the first outstandings are funded in the Risk Pool) or if such period is less than 12 months after the first outstandings are funded in the Risk Pool, then the monthly average for the total number of months that have passed since the initial funding of a Risk Pool account, or (ii) $2,000,000 (Risk Pool Indemnity Maximum").

After the Risk Pool Indemnity Maximum has been incurred in any Contract Year, all remaining credit risk with respect to, and losses occurring from, the Risk Pool during that Contract Year will be assumed by Textron Financial (except for the obligations of Company and Coachman Industries, Inc. under the respective Repurchase Agreement and Guaranty. as agreed to in the Repurchase Agreement). In such event, the Risk Pool will be fully refreshed on the first day of the following Contract Year. The terms "loss" or "losses" as used in this Section shall be defined as any amount owed to Textron Financial by Builders. Textron Financial shall provide reasonable information and proof substantiating any loss submitted for reimbursement by Company hereunder. In the event Textron Financial subsequently recovers losses that were previously charged to the Company, these recoveries will be returned to the Company. If those recoveries were in the same Contract Year as the charge-off, that recovery amount will offset the charge-off for the calculation the Company's maximum obligation.

(e)

Such Homes conform in all respects to the Order and will not be shipped to such Builder prior to Textron Financial’s approval of such Unit Invoice for payment;

  (f)

All Unit Invoices presented to Textron Financial have been reviewed by Manufacturer, and Manufacturer agrees that all Unit Invoice amounts are accurate and reasonable, and that no party other than Manufacturer or Builder has any ownership interest in the Unit Invoices at the time of presentation of the same to Textron Financial.

  (h)

Manufacturer shall further represent and warrant to Textron Financial that such Units are free and clear of liens, claims and encumbrances of all parties other than Textron Financial.


In the event that Textron Financial, with the approval of Manufacturer, refinances Homes or other costs associated with the Homes already in the possession of a Builder, Manufacturer shall execute a letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Each such letter executed by Manufacturer shall be considered an Unit Invoice for purposes of Manufacturer’s obligations under this Agreement. By delivery of such an executed letter to Textron Financial, Manufacturer shall make to Textron Financial the representations and warranties set forth in Subparagraphs (b), (c), (f) and (g) of this Paragraph with respect to the Homes or Invoices identified thereon.

2.      Payment Obligations. Textron Financial will establish a credit limit for each Builder approved by Textron Financial for the extension of credit. Such credit limit shall not constitute a committed line of credit and Textron Financial shall not be bound to finance any particular Homes, Unit set-up costs or Unit Soft costs. Textron Financial shall be obligated to pay the Total Invoice Cost, less any discount applicable to Textron Financial from time to time (the “Net Invoice Cost”), for invoices which Textron Financial approves and pays. Payments for Set Up Invoices and Soft Cost Invoices shall not exceed those percentages set forth in that certain Program Agreement entered into between Textron Financial and Manufacturer dated _____________, as the same may be amended from time to time. Manufacturer will secure from Textron Financial an approval number for Homes to be delivered to a Builder before they are manufactured. Manufacturer may ship its Homes in reliance upon an approval number issued by an authorized Textron Financial employee, or through Textron Financial’s online automated approval system. Manufacturer will not seek an approval number for Invoices, nor deliver to a Builder, Homes for which it does not have a bona fide order from an authorized representative of the Builder. Manufacturer will not forward to Textron Financial its Invoice and certificate of origin for payment unless it has received an approval number from Textron Financial and unless the Homes have been shipped. Textron Financial agrees: (a) it shall pay to Manufacturer the Net Invoice Cost within ten (10) business days of an invoice date or Textron Financial’s receipt of the Invoice, whichever is later; (b) it will pay the Net Invoice Cost to Manufacturer for any Home that has a valid approval number from Textron Financial; (c) it will only request Manufacturer to repurchase a Home after it has made a legal repossession of same unless otherwise agreed to, in writing, by and between Textron Financial and Manufacturer.

3.      Repurchase Obligations of Manufacturer. Should Textron Financial at any time repossess or otherwise come into actual or constructive possession of any Homes financed or refinanced by Textron Financial for any Builder regardless of the manner or method of possession, within thirty-seven (37) months following the date of Textron Financial’s purchase date of such Invoice for such Homes or Soft Costs Invoices (the “Repurchase Period”), Manufacturer shall repurchase such Homes from Textron Financial and repay to Textron Financial the Total Invoice Costs upon the following terms and conditions:


  (a)

Manufacturer shall repurchase from Textron Financial all Homes and Invoices evidencing the Total Invoice Costs within thirty (30) calendar days upon receipt of notice (“Repurchase Notice”) from Textron Financial that such Homes are in Textron Financial’s possession, wherever located and in whatever condition. Beyond warranty of title or ability to transfer Builder’s title to Manufacturer, and Textron Financial’s representation that it is transferring all of its right, title and interest to Manufacturer, such transfer shall be without any express or implied warranties including merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose;

  (b)

The repurchase price for such Homes (the “Repurchase Price”) shall be equal to: (i) the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and delinquency charges owing to Textron Financial by the applicable Builder with respect to the Total Invoice Cost, plus (ii) all reasonable expenses incurred by Textron Financial in connection with the repossession, foreclosure and/or maintenance of such Homes and Invoices related thereto.

  (c)

The Repurchase Price shall be determined as of the date of the Repurchase Notice.


  (d) 

In the event that a purported sale from Manufacturer to Builder is subject to a lien in favor of Manufacturer or anyone claiming under or through Manufacturer, or is not otherwise marketable or saleable upon delivery due to damage in shipment, defects or non-compliance with applicable federal, state or local rule, laws or regulations or if Manufacturer breaches any of its representations or warranties hereunder (collectively “Non-conforming Homes”), then upon written demand by Textron Financial, Manufacturer shall pay Textron Financial the Repurchase Price with respect to such item(s) of Non-conforming Homes regardless of whether Textron Financial comes into possession of such Non-conforming Homes and the provisions of paragraph 3 shall not apply and the time limitation on Manufacturer’s obligation to repurchase in paragraph 3 shall not apply; provided however, if such Homes are deemed to be Non-conforming Homes due to a manufacturing defect or damage in shipment, Manufacturer’s obligation to pay the Repurchase Price on account of such defect or damage shall be subject to notice from Textron Financial to Manufacturer of such non-conformance or damage, and Manufacturer shall be given a reasonable time to make satisfactory repairs. Accordingly, if Manufacturer corrects and/or repairs such damage or non-conformance, then such Homes shall no longer be deemed to be Non-conforming Homes, and Textron Financial shall not issue a repurchase demand on such Homes by virtue of such defect or non-conformance.

  (e)

If Manufacturer fails to pay the Repurchase Price within thirty (30) days from the date on which Textron Financial gives written notice that such Homes are in Textron Financial’s possession, then Textron Financial shall be entitled to interest on the Repurchase Price retroactive to the date of such notice at the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal (or as published in such other form as may be designated by Textron Financial from time to time), as such rate may change from time to time, plus four percent (4%) calculated on the outstanding average daily balance. Textron Financial shall have no obligation to deliver any item of Homes to any particular location in order to demand the Repurchase Price: provided, however, Manufacturer will not be liable for such Repurchase Price unless Textron Financial takes actual or constructive legal possession of the Homes.

4.      The passage of the Repurchase Period referenced above will be suspended temporarily for all affected Homes and Invoices comprising the Total Invoice Costs, as of the date any of the following events occur, and will not resume until the date Textron Financial obtains possession of the Homes by court order or consent of all relevant parties, and shall be automatically extended to 30 days after the date Textron Financial obtains such possession: (i) Textron Financial institutes any type of legal action to obtain possession of any Homes from Builder; (ii) any legal action is instituted as a result of a dispute with another creditor regarding priority rights in the Homes; (iii) a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action is filed by or on behalf of the Builder; or (iv) any legal proceeding is filed or any governmental proceedings or order which prevents Textron Financial from obtaining possession of the Homes.

  (d)

Manufacturer or Textron Financial commences a case or an order of relief is entered under any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar law.


6.      Textron Financial’s Remedies After Default. Upon a default hereunder, and at any time thereafter, any Manufacturer obligation herein described and any other amounts then owing by Manufacturer to Textron Financial shall become immediately due and payable. In addition, in the case of a default as described above in section 5(c), Manufacturer will be liable for all obligations that arise as a result of any funding by Textron Financial to any party other than Manufacturer until such required written notice as described in section 5(c) is received by Textron Financial. Textron Financial shall have all other rights and remedies allowed by law.

7.      Waivers; Binding Effect; Governing Law. The obligations of Manufacturer under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional.

Manufacturer waives: (i) any right to require Textron Financial to proceed against a Builder or to pursue any other remedy prior to exercising Textron Financial’s rights under this Agreement, other than as may be expressly set forth herein, (ii) notice of the acceptance of this Agreement by Textron Financial, the non-performance of any Obligation of any Builder owing to Textron Financial, or the amount of the Obligations outstanding at any time, (iii) demand and presentation for payment upon the applicable Builder, (iv) protest and notice of protest and diligence of bringing suit against any Builder,; and (vi) any other defense to Manufacturer’s obligations under this Agreement. Textron Financial’s failure to exercise any rights


granted hereunder shall not operate as a waiver of those rights. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of their successors and assigns. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Rhode Island, without reference to applicable conflict of law principles.

8.      Termination by Manufacturer. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until terminated by either party by written notice to the other party. Such termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, but such termination shall not affect the liabilities of Manufacturer with respect to Invoices paid by Textron Financial and Invoices and Homes approved for payment and financing by Textron Financial prior to the effective date of such termination, even though such Invoices are paid by Textron Financial thereafter, and such termination shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties as to any transaction entered into prior to the receipt of such notice of termination, including without limitation transactions for which approvals are pending or which will not be completed until after the effective date of termination.

Dear      :

Textron Financial desires to provide certain financial accommodations to (“Builder”) secured by those Homes identified on this Exhibit A incorporated herein by reference (“Homes”). As a condition of Textron Financial providing such financial accommodations to Builder, however, Manufacturer must agree that all of the Homes shall be subject to all of its liabilities and obligations under the Repurchase Agreement as if Textron Financial had originally financed the Builder’s acquisition of the Homes pursuant to and in reliance on the terms of the Repurchase Agreement.

Please acknowledge Manufacturer’s agreement that all of the Homes shall be subject to all of Manufacturer’s liabilities and obligations under the Repurchase Agreement as if Textron Financial originally financed the Builder’s acquisition of the Homes pursuant to and in reliance on the terms of the Repurchase Agreement by signing below and by signing Exhibit A, and return your original signatures to me via facsimile and U.S. Mail.

Thank you.
