                                   THE LOANS

         2.1      Loans.

                  (a)      Subject to all terms set forth herein but only during
the Commitment Period and for so long as no Event of Default exists, Bank
agrees, from time to time and on the terms hereinafter set forth:

                           (i)      to loan to Borrower, when requested by
Borrower, principal amounts with the outstanding principal balance not to exceed
Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($7,500,000.00) (the
"Revolving Loan"). Within the aforesaid limit, the Borrower may borrow, make
payments, and reborrow under this Agreement, subject to the provisions hereof.

                           (ii)     to issue Letters of Credit for the benefit
of Borrower, when requested by Borrower, the aggregate amount of which Letters
of Credit shall not exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (the "LOC Loan").
Within the aforesaid limit, the Borrower may direct Bank to issue Letters of
Credit, and upon expiration of any Letters of Credit, direct Bank to issue
additional Letters of Credit, subject to the provisions hereof, provided that at
no time during the Commitment Period or at any time thereafter shall the
aggregate amount of such non-expired Letters of Credit outstanding exceed One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). To the extent that any Letter of Credit is
drawn upon, such monies shall be deemed advanced under the LOC Note.

                  (b)      The obligation to repay the Loans shall be evidenced
by the Notes payable to the order of the Bank and maturing upon the earlier to
occur of an Event of Default or the expiration of the Commitment Period. Amounts
due under the Notes and otherwise under this Agreement and under the Loan
Documents shall be reflected in the Loan Account.

                  (c)      Bank may, in its sole discretion, require that each
advance made under the Revolving Loan, and each Letter of Credit issued under
the LOC Loan, be effected by Borrower's submitting (and the Bank's receiving) a
Borrower's Report in such form as may be reasonably requested by Bank from time
to time at least one (1) banking day prior to the date Borrower desires the
advance to be made and at least two (2) banking days prior to the date Borrower
desires the Letter of Credit to be issued. Bank shall, if all the terms and
provisions of this Agreement have been met, including, without limitation, the
absence of an Event of Default hereunder, make such advances or issue such
Letters of Credit. Each such Borrower's Report shall be signed by an officer or
employee of Borrower authorized by Borrower to execute such reports, whose
name(s) shall be included in a certificate furnished to the Bank.

                  (d)      At its discretion, Bank may make advances to Borrower
under the Revolving Loan without specific request by automatic advance based on
availability in accordance with procedures established by Bank. In addition, as
an accommodation to Borrower, Bank may permit telephonic requests for loans and
electronic transmittal of instructions, authorizations, agreements or reports to
Bank by Borrower. Unless Borrower specifically directs


                                       7
<PAGE>

Bank in writing not to accept or act upon telephonic or electronic
communications from Borrower, Bank shall have no liability to Borrower for any
loss or damage suffered by Borrower as a result of Bank's honoring of any
requests, execution of any instructions, authorizations or agreements or
reliance on any reports communicated to Bank telephonically or electronically
and purporting to have been sent to Bank by Borrower and Bank shall have no duty
to verify the origin of any such communication or the authority of the person
sending it.

                  (e)      If the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Loan exceeds the Maximum Revolving Principal Amount at any time during the
Commitment Period, or if the outstanding principal balance of the LOC Loan
exceeds the Maximum LOC Principal Amount at any time during the Commitment
Period, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Bank an amount equal to such
excess as a payment on the principal amount of the Revolving Loan or the LOC
Loan, as applicable. Without limiting the foregoing, which provision may be
enforced by Bank at any time and which provision, as well as the other
provisions hereof, may not under any circumstance be waived or altered by a
course of dealing or otherwise, insofar as Borrower may request and Bank may be
willing in its sole and absolute discretion to make Overadvances, Bank shall
enter such Overadvances as debits in the Revolving Loan Account or LOC Loan
Account, as applicable. All Overadvances shall be payable on demand, shall be
secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest as provided in this Agreement
for Loans generally. Bank may in its sole discretion honor any request (or
deemed request) for an advance even though an Overadvance Condition then exists,
or would exist with the making of such advance, and without regard to the
existence of, and without waiving, any default or Event of Default.

                  (f)      Each borrowing under the Revolving Loan shall be
effected by crediting the amount thereof to the regular checking account of
Borrower maintained with the Bank or with another bank approved by the Bank
(recognizing that BankAtlantic, FSB, Comerica Bank and Bank of America are
approved by Bank).

                  (g)      The principal amount of the Revolving Loan and the
LOC Note outstanding from time to time hereunder shall bear interest at the Base
Rate. Interest shall be paid to Bank on the amount of the Revolving Loan and the
LOC Note outstanding and shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of
each month beginning with April 1, 2002, and continuing on the same day of each
month thereafter through and until such time as there remains no unpaid
principal balance on the amounts advanced to the Borrower under the applicable
Loan. The applicable interest rate on the Loans shall change as and when the
Base Rate changes from time to time. Interest shall be calculated based on a 360
day year (i.e., computed on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360
days unless reference to a 365 or a 366-day year is necessary in order not to
exceed the highest rate permitted by Applicable Law). From and after the
occurrence of an Event of Default until the Event of Default is cured, the
principal amount of both Loans outstanding from time to time shall, subject to
the provisions of the following subsection, bear interest at the Default Rate.
Additionally, for each payment due pursuant to this Agreement which is more than
ten (10) calendar days overdue, Bank may charge a fee (the "Late Charge") equal
to five percent (5%) of each overdue payment to reimburse Bank for the extra
expense involved in handling delinquent payments.


                                       8
<PAGE>

                  (h)      Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the provisions
herein and in the Notes relating to the Default Rate and the Late Charge
represent a fair and reasonable estimate by Borrower and Bank of a fair average
compensation for the loss that may be sustained by Bank due to the failure of
Borrower to make timely payments with respect to the Obligations and for the
cost and expenses that may be incurred by Bank by reason of the occurrence of an
Event of Default, the parties recognizing that the damages caused by such extra
administrative expenses and loss of the use of funds is impracticable or
extremely difficult to ascertain or estimate. Interest at the Default Rate shall
be paid without prejudice to the rights of Bank to collect any other amounts
provided to be paid hereunder.

                  (i)      Additional Conditions to the LOC Loan.

                           (a)      Form of and Expiry Dates of Letters of
Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be in the form customarily issued by Bank
without modification. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued for a term not to
exceed one year with provisions for renewal at the option of Bank.
Notwithstanding anything contained in the immediately preceding sentence to the
contrary, under no circumstances shall the ultimate expiry date of any Letter of
Credit extend beyond the last day of the Commitment Period, as may be extended
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

                           (b)      Evidence of Indebtedness of LOC Loan.
Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Borrower has executed the
LOC Note, which LOC Note shall evidence the indebtedness of the LOC Loan. If any
funds are drawn under any Letter of Credit, such funding shall automatically be
an advance to Borrower under the LOC Note made on Borrower's account directly to
Bank, and until such time as such funds so advanced are repaid by Borrower to
Bank in full, such advances shall accrue interest at the rate and in the manner
more particularly set forth in Section 2.1(g) hereof. Borrower understands,
acknowledges and agrees that, as more fully set forth in the LOC Note, any
language contained in a Letter of Credit application or other documentation
relating to evidencing the indebtedness under the LOC Loan or any Letter of
Credit that would be drawn upon is evidencing the same indebtedness as the LOC
Note and under no circumstances shall any LOC application or related
documentation evidence any new or additional indebtedness whatsoever.

                           (c)      Conditions Precedent to the Issuance of
Letter of Credit. Prior to Bank issuing a Letter of Credit, the following
conditions precedent shall be satisfied in full as determined by Bank:

                                    (1)      No Event of Default shall exist;

                                    (2)      Borrower shall execute and have
timely delivered a Borrower's Report and any and all other documents required by
Bank in connection with issuing the applicable Letter of Credit;

                                    (3)      Borrower shall pay to Bank in cash
a fee for each Letter of Credit an amount equal to Fifty Dollars ($50.00) plus
one percent (1%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, provided that such
fee shall in no event be less than $150, and further


                                       9
<PAGE>

provided that such fee shall be paid in advance for each year or portion of a
year during which each Letter of Credit shall be in effect. Additionally,
Borrower shall pay all issuance fees, renewal fees, amendment fees and
application fees upon the issuance, renewal or amendment, as applicable, of each
Letter of Credit.

                                    (4)      Each of the other documents,
certificates and instruments required under this Agreement shall have been
executed and delivered to Bank.

                                    (5)      All other conditions precedent
applicable (as determined by Bank) to the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall
have been satisfied in full.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the
event that the aggregate face value of the outstanding and unexpired Letters of
Credit (the "Aggregate LOC Amount") exceeds the Maximum LOC Principal Amount or,
if issuing such Letter of Credit would cause the Aggregate LOC Amount to exceed
the Maximum LOC Principal Amount, the Bank shall not be obligated to issue such
Letter of Credit.

                  (d)      Update of Representations and Warranties. Each
request by Borrower for the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall constitute a
new and independent representation and warranty to Bank with respect to all of
the matters set forth in this Agreement as of the date of each such request.

         2.2      Loan Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a loan fee of $25,000.00
(the "Loan Fee"), which shall be deemed fully earned at the closing of the
transactions contemplated hereby, and shall not be subject to rebate except as
may be required by any Applicable Law. In addition to the Loan Fee, the Borrower
shall pay each quarter in arrears (as set forth below) to Bank a quarterly loan
fee as a percentage of the unused balance of the Revolving Loan (the "Quarterly
Revolving Loan Fee"). The Quarterly Revolving Loan Fee shall be calculated by
multiplying .000625 by the difference between the Maximum Revolving Principal
Amount and the average daily closing balance of the Revolving Loan Account for
the preceding three (3) months. In addition to the Loan Fee and the Quarterly
Revolving Loan Fee, the Borrower shall pay each quarter in arrears (as set forth
below) to Bank a quarterly loan fee as a percentage of the unused or unissued
balance of the LOC Loan (the "Quarterly LOC Loan Fee"). The Quarterly LOC Loan
Fee shall be calculated by multiplying .000625 by the difference between the
Maximum LOC Principal Amount and the average daily closing balance of the LOC
Loan Account for the preceding three (3) months. The Loan Fee, the Quarterly
Revolving Loan Fee, the Quarterly LOC Loan Fee, and the Annual Loan Fee (as
defined in Section 2.10) shall compensate Bank for the costs associated with the
origination, structuring, processing, approving and closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, administrative,
general overhead and lost opportunity costs, but not including any out-of-pocket
or other expenses for which Borrower has agreed to reimburse Bank pursuant to
the Loan Commitment.

         2.3      Loan Accounts.

                  (a)      Bank shall enter disbursements with respect to the
Revolving Loan hereunder or under the Revolving Note as debits to the Revolving
Loan Account and shall also record in


                                       10

charges and expenses properly chargeable to Borrower hereunder with respect to
the Revolving Loan.

                  (b)      Bank shall enter disbursements with respect to the
LOC Loan hereunder or under the LOC Note as debits to the LOC Loan Account and
shall also record in the LOC Loan Account all payments made by Borrower with
respect to the LOC Loan and any proceeds of Collateral which are finally paid to
Bank, and may record therein, in accordance with customary accounting practice,
all charges and expenses properly chargeable to Borrower hereunder with respect
to the LOC Loan.

the Loans and the Obligations, and any renewals or extensions, and all interest
thereon and costs provided for herein with regard to either of them, have been
indefeasibly paid or satisfied in full and until the Bank has no further
obligation to advance funds to the Borrower hereunder. Subject to the foregoing
sentence, Borrower shall have the right to terminate this Agreement prior to
expiration of the Commitment Period upon payment of all outstanding principal,
accrued interest and other charges owing under the terms of this Agreement. The
indemnities provided for in Article X shall survive the payment in full of the
Loans and the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

         2.6      Use of Proceeds. Borrower and its subsidiaries shall use the
proceeds of the Revolving Loan and the line of credit available under the LOC
Loan for the following purposes and no other: to facilitate their working
capital needs in their land acquisition, land development, homebuilding and
other real estate related businesses.

         2.7      Payments. All sums paid to the Bank by Borrower hereunder
shall be paid directly to the Bank in immediately available funds no later than
3:00 p.m., Boca Raton, Florida time on the date on which payment is due, except
if such date is not a Business Day such payment shall then be due on the first
Business Day after such date, but interest shall continue to accrue until the
date payment is received. Any payment received after 3:00 p.m. Boca Raton,
Florida time shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately following
Business Day for all purposes, including, without limitation, the accrual of
interest on principal. The Bank shall send Borrower, if and when reasonably
requested by Borrower, statements of all amounts due hereunder, which statements
shall be considered correct and presumptively binding on the Borrower unless the
Borrower notifies the Bank to the contrary within ten (10) days of its receipt
of any statement which it deems to be incorrect. The Bank may, in its sole
discretion, (a) charge against any deposit account of the Borrower all or any
part of any amount due hereunder, including, without limitation, the fees and
expenses of the Bank to be paid by Borrower as provided for in Sections 11.1

<PAGE>
this Agreement, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Bank
to be paid by Borrower as provided for in Sections 11.1 through 11.3 of this
Agreement, and any commitment or servicing fee due the Bank, during or for the
immediately preceding month or any month prior. Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested an advance under the Loans upon the occurrence of an overdraft in any
of Borrower's checking accounts maintained with the Bank or another bank owned
by Bank.

         2.8      Application of Payments. Borrower irrevocably waives the right
to direct the application of any and all payments and collections at any time or
times hereafter received by Bank from or on behalf of Borrower or from any of
the Collateral, and Borrower does hereby irrevocably agree that Bank shall have
the continuing exclusive right to apply such payments and collections received
at any time or times hereafter by Bank or its agent against the Obligations, in
such manner as Bank may deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Bank upon
any of its books and records. If for any reason a credit balance exists in the
applicable Loan Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor
of Borrower but shall be available to Borrower at any time or times for so long
as no Event of Default exists.

         2.9      Limitations. The Loans shall, notwithstanding any course of
dealing or conduct on the part of the parties hereto, or any other covenants or
undertakings of the parties hereunder, be fully due and payable without further
notice or demand from Bank upon the expiration of the Commitment Period. Time is
of the essence of this Agreement.

         2.10     Renewal. On or before June 30 of each calendar year (other
than the year of the Maturity Date, as may be extended), Bank will review its
financing commitment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and may, at its
sole discretion, offer to Borrower the option to extend the term of both of the
Loans for a one (1) year period. On or before June 30 of each calendar year
(other than the year of the Maturity Date, as may be extended), if Borrower
desires to renew the Loans but reduce the amount of either Loan, Borrower shall
deliver written notice to the Bank to such effect. Upon approval by the Bank of
an extension of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10, the Borrower will pay
to Bank a renewal fee for such year equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%)
of the combined principal amounts of the Notes evidencing the Loans (the "Annual
Loan Fee"), as well as all costs and expenses incurred by Bank in connection
with such renewal, including without limitation, legal expenses of the Bank's
attorneys. As a result of such renewal, the Maturity Date will be extended by
one year, and the terms of this Section 2.10 shall apply to the extended
Maturity Date for purposes of renewing the Loans for an additional year
thereafter.

liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the State of Florida; has the power to own its properties and to
carry on its business as now being conducted; and is duly qualified to do

to enter into this Agreement, to borrow hereunder, to execute and deliver the
Notes and the other Loan Documents and to incur the obligations provided for

<PAGE>

Default or of the failure of the Borrower to observe any of its undertakings
hereunder, or (iii) any material lawsuit involving Borrower.

         6.12     Subordination of Debt. The term "Specified Loans" shall mean

or construction loans each of which is obtained from BankAtlantic, FSB in the
ordinary course of and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Borrower's

than it would obtain in a comparable arm's-length transaction with an
institutional lender who is not an Affiliate of Borrower, all documents or
instruments executed in connection with any extension of credit to Borrower by
BankAtlantic, FSB. The Specified Loans shall not be subordinate to the Loan. Any
loan made by BankAtlantic, FSB to Borrower which is not a Specified Loan shall

conditions of any proposed loan, the Bank shall provide written notice to
Borrower confirming that the loan in question being made from BankAtlantic, FSB
to the Borrower is, or is not, in Bank's opinion, required to subordinate to the
Loan and setting forth the basis for such opinion if Bank believes that such
loan is required to be subordinated to the Loan.

         6.16     Business Records. Keep, and cause each Subsidiary to keep,
adequate records and books of account with respect to its business activities in

                  (a)      total Tangible Net Worth of not less than Thirty
Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00).

<PAGE>

                  (b)      a ratio of total Debt to Tangible Net Worth of not
more than 3.00:1.00.

         6.18     First Right to Finance: Borrower agrees it shall provide to
the Bank the first right to finance (on the same terms then applicable to
similar credit extensions by the Bank) any land or lot acquisition or
development or residential construction undertaken by the Borrower or any
Subsidiary of the Borrower during the term of the Loan (excluding any existing
financing commitments and loans or refinancing thereof). If Bank has not agreed
to provide financing (subject to the Bank's normal and customary terms and
conditions then applicable to similar credits) within ten (10) business days
after receiving a loan request and the related materials normally required in
the Bank's commitment underwriting process, Bank shall be deemed to have waived
its option to finance pursuant to this Section 6.18. Land acquisition and/or
development loans furnished by the Bank pursuant to this Section 6.18 will
accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to one half percent (.50%) above the
Prime Rate and will require the Borrower to pay a loan fee equal to one percent
(1.00%) of the loan amount for a loan term not to exceed thirty six (36) months.
Revolving construction loans furnished by the Bank pursuant to this Paragraph
will accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to one half percent (.50%) above
the Prime Rate and will require the Borrower to pay an annual loan fee equal to
one half percent (0.50%) of the maximum outstanding balance of the revolving
construction line of credit. With respect to any revolving construction loan for
completion of dwelling units that closes concurrently with a land acquisition
and/or development loan secured by the same property, the annual fee described
above will not be imposed until the earlier of either (a) the first loan advance
thereunder or (b) nine (9) months after closing.

         6.19     Most Favorable Financial Covenants. Borrower agrees that it
shall inform Bank of any current financial covenants which it may have entered
into with any other lender, bank, or credit facility which may be more favorable
to such lender, bank, or credit facility, and shall agree to execute documents
or otherwise provide to Bank the same financial covenants or the benefits of
such financial covenants.

         6.20     Filings. Deliver to Bank a copy of any filings with any
governmental body, agency or authority which regulates Borrower's business other
than routine filings to maintain the good standing of Borrower, filings
regarding zoning issues, or filings in the ordinary course of Borrower's
Authorized Business.

                  (h)      Judgments. If a final judgment for the payment of

                  (m)      Change in Management. If Elliott Wiener shall not,
for any reason, be actively serving as an executive officer of the Borrower or
shall for any reason devote less than a sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of
the Bank) amount of his business time to the business and affairs of the
Borrower and its subsidiaries and a suitable replacement (based on business
experience and background) acceptable to the Bank, in its reasonable discretion,
has not been


                                       25
<PAGE>

retained within 30 days thereafter, the Loan shall be deemed in default. John E.
Abdo and Alan Levan are each preapproved as a substitute executive officer and
manager for Elliot Wiener provided that upon such substitution said individual
shall devote a sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of the Bank) amount of his
business time to the business and affairs of the Borrower and its subsidiaries;
or

is drawn upon for any reason whatsoever and the LOC Note is not repaid within 15
days of written demand.

         The Borrower agrees that default under any Loan Document or Second Loan
Document not cured within the applicable cure period shall constitute default
with respect to all Loan Documents and all Second Loan Documents and vice versa,
and a cure of such event of default of the Loan Documents or Second Loan
Documents shall cure such default under the Loan Documents and Second Loan
Documents and vice versa.

         9.2      Remedies. Upon or at any time after the occurrence of any one
or more of the foregoing Events of Default until cured and the cure accepted by
Bank, Bank or the holder of the Notes may at its option (i) proceed to protect
and enforce its rights by suit in equity, action at law and/or the appropriate
proceeding either for specific performance of any covenant or condition
contained in the Notes or in any Loan Document, (ii) terminate the Commitment
Period and cease disbursing advances under the Revolving Note, (iii) refuse to
issue any further Letters of Credit; and/or declare the unpaid balance of the
Loans and Notes together with all accrued interest to be forthwith due and
payable, and thereupon such balance shall become so due and payable without
further presentation, protest or further demand or notice of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived.

         The Borrower shall pay the Bank on demand any and all expenses,
including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred or paid by the
Bank in protecting or enforcing the Loans and all other Obligations to and other
rights of the Bank hereunder to the extent Bank is the prevailing party.

         The Bank shall not be liable for failure to enforce any contract rights
or for any action or omission on the part of the Bank, its officers, agents and
employees, except willful misconduct or gross negligence. No remedy herein
conferred upon, or reserved to, the Bank is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy or remedies, including those of any note or other evidence of Debt
held by the Bank, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing in
law or in equity. Exercise or


                                       26
<PAGE>

omission to exercise any right of the Bank shall not affect any subsequent right
of the Bank to exercise the same.

         Borrower waives any bond or security that might be required by any
court prior to allowing Bank to exercise any of Bank's remedies.

         The Borrower agrees that the Bank may apply the net proceeds received
from the Collateral among the Loans and the Obligations toward satisfaction of
the same in its sole discretion. Any such proceeds remaining after satisfaction
in full of the Loans, the Obligations, and the other obligations and liabilities
of the Borrower to the Bank shall be distributed as required by Applicable Laws.

         9.3      Right of Set-Off. Upon and after the occurrence of any Event
of Default until cured, Bank may, and is hereby authorized by Borrower, at any
time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws,
and without advance notice to Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived
by Borrower), set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and any other indebtedness at
any time owing by Bank to, or for the credit or the account of, Borrower against
any or all of the Loans and Obligations and other liabilities and obligations of
Borrower now or hereafter existing whether or not such obligations have matured
and irrespective of whether Bank has exercised any other rights that it has or
may have with respect to such Loans and Obligations and other liabilities and
obligations, including, without limitation, any acceleration rights. The
aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by Bank against Borrower or against
any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of the
creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of Borrower,
notwithstanding the fact that such right of set-off shall not have been
exercised by Bank prior to the making, filing or issuance, or service upon Bank
of, or of notice of, any such petition; assignment for the benefit of creditors;
appointment or application for the appointment of a receiver; or issuance of
execution, subpoena, order or warrant. Bank agrees to notify Borrower after any
such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of
Bank under this Section are in addition to the other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which Bank may have.

                                   ARTICLE 10

whatsoever arising out of or relating to any breach or default by Borrower or
under this Agreement or any Loan Document or the failure of Borrower to observe,
perform or discharge Borrower's duties hereunder or thereunder. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, Borrower's obligation to indemnify Bank shall
include indemnity from any and all claims, demands, judgments, damages, actions,
causes of action, injuries, orders, penalties, costs and expenses arising out of
or in connection with the activities of the Borrower, its predecessors in

<PAGE>

interest, third parties who have trespassed on Borrower's property, or parties
in a contractual relationship with Borrower, whether or not occasioned wholly or
in part by any condition, accident or event caused by an act or omission of the
Indemnitees, which: (a) arise out of the actual, alleged or threatened
discharge, dispersal, release, storage, treatment, generation, disposal, or
escape of radioactive materials, radioactivity, pollutants or other toxic or
hazardous substances, including any solid, liquid, gaseous, or thermal irritant
or contaminant, including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acids, alkalis, chemicals,
and waste (including materials to be recycled, reconditioned or reclaimed); or
(b) actually or allegedly arise out of the use, specification, or inclusion of
any product, material, or process containing chemicals or radioactive material,
the failure to detect the existence or proportion of chemicals or radioactive
material in the soil, air, surface water or groundwater, or the performance or
failure to perform the abatement of any pollution source or the replacement or
removal of any soil, water, surface water, or groundwater containing chemicals
or radioactive material; or (c) arises out of or relates to breach by Borrower
of any of the provisions of Section 5.15 hereof relating to Environmental

and against any liability, claim, cost or expense incurred by Bank or imposed
against Bank for any stamp tax, intangible tax, or other tax, fee or charge
imposed by any governmental entity arising out of or relating to the Notes or
this Agreement or the transactions anticipated herein.

review and approval of this transaction, the preparation of the Agreement and
the Loan Documents, and the issuance and delivery of the Notes to Bank and also
in connection with any amendment or modification thereto, and the administration
thereof, including, without limitation, (i) all reasonable legal fees, expenses
and disbursements and other actual third-party expense reimbursements incurred
or sustained by Bank in connection with this transaction, (ii) all reasonable
travel, appraisal, audit, search and filing fees incurred or sustained by Bank
in connection with this transaction (other than administrative expenses); (iii)
all recording and filing fees, intangibles taxes, documentary and revenue
stamps, other taxes or other expenses and charges payable in connection with
this Agreement, the Notes or any Loan Document and (iv) all reasonable costs and
expenses (including fees and expenses of outside consultants) related to the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and/or periodic audits and
appraisals performed by Bank. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and save Bank
harmless against all broker's and finder's fees, if any.

         11.2     Other Costs and Expenses. If, at any time or times hereafter,
whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank employs
counsel to advise or provide other representation with respect to this Agreement
or any Loan Document, or to collect the balance of the Loans, or to take any
action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or any of the Loan Documents, or to protect, collect, or liquidate the
Collateral or to attempt to enforce any security interest or Lien granted to the
Bank by Borrower; then in any such events, all of the reasonable attorneys' fees
arising from such services, and any expenses, costs and charges relating thereto
to the extent the Bank is the prevailing party, shall constitute additional
obligations of Borrower payable on demand of the Bank.

         11.3     Legal Counsel. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that legal
counsel to Bank does not represent Borrower as Borrower's attorney, that
Borrower has retained (or has had an opportunity to retain) counsel of its own
choice and has not and will not rely upon any advice from Bank's counsel. In no
event shall Borrower's reimbursement of expenses pursuant to this Agreement
(even if effected by payment directly by Borrower to Bank's counsel) be deemed
to establish any attorney-client relationship between Borrower and Bank's
counsel.

         11.4     No Waiver. No waiver of any Event of Default hereunder, and no
waiver of any default or Event of Default under any other Loan Document shall
extend to or shall affect any subsequent or other then existing default or shall
impair any rights, remedies or powers of Bank. No delay or omission of Bank or
any subsequent holder of the Notes to exercise any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder after the occurrence of such default or Event of Default
shall be construed as a waiver of any such default, or acquiescence therein.

         11.5     Headings. Except for the definitions set forth in Section 1,
the headings of the articles, sections, paragraphs and subdivisions of this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part
hereof, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.

         11.6     Marshalling of Assets; Payments Set Aside. Bank shall be under
no obligation to marshall any assets or securities in favor of Borrower or any
Guarantor or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations. To the extent that any sum credited against the Obligations is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the
extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to
be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

         11.7     Survival of Covenants. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in certificates or reports
delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been material and relied on by
Bank, notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of Bank, and shall
survive the execution and delivery to Bank of any Notes or Loan Document.

         11.8     Addresses. Any notice or demand which by any provision of this
Agreement is required or provided to be given shall be deemed to have been
sufficiently given or served for all purposes by (i) being delivered in person
to the party to whom the notice or demand is directed or (ii) by being sent as
first class mail, postage prepaid, in either event to the following address: If
to Borrower, 7777 Glades Road, Suite 410, Boca Raton, Florida 33434; or if any
other address shall at any time be designated by Borrower in writing to the
holders of record of the Note(s) at the time of such designation to such other
address; and if to Bank, 200 Ohio Savings Plaza, 1801 East Ninth Street,
Cleveland, Ohio 44114, Attention: Corporate Lending Department, Mr. Ralph Kirk;
or if any other address shall at any time be designated in writing to Borrower,
to such other address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice shall be
effective as to Bank until actually received by Bank. Any written notice that is
not sent in conformity with the provisions hereof


                                       29
<PAGE>

shall nevertheless be effective on the date that such notice is actually
received by the noticed party.

         11.9     Venue and Jurisdiction. The parties agree that any legal
action brought by the Bank to collect the Loans or any Obligation or to assert
any claim by or against Borrower under any Loan Document, or any part thereof,
shall be brought in any court in the State of Florida having subject matter
jurisdiction, waives its right to object to any such action on grounds it is
brought in the improper venue, and irrevocably consents that any legal action or
proceeding against it under, arising out of, or in any manner relating to the
Loans, the Obligations, or any Loan Document shall be brought in the Circuit
Court of Palm Beach County, Florida, or in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of Florida. Borrower, by the execution of this Agreement,
expressly and irrevocably assents and submits to the personal jurisdiction of
any such court in any such action or proceeding. Borrower consents to the
service of process relating to any such action or proceeding by mail to the
address set forth in this Agreement.

         11.10    Continuing Obligation; Benefits. This Agreement, and each and
every provision hereof, is a continuing obligation and shall (i) be binding upon
the Borrower and the Bank, their successors and assigns, and (ii) inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the Borrower and Bank and their successors and
assigns; provided, that the Borrower may not assign all or any part of this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Bank, which consent may be
granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Bank.

         11.11    Controlling Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida; provided,
however, that if any of the Collateral shall be located in any jurisdiction
other than Florida, the laws of such jurisdiction shall govern the method,
manner and procedure for foreclosure of Bank's lien upon such Collateral and the
enforcement of Bank's other remedies in respect of such Collateral to the extent
that the laws of such jurisdiction are different from or inconsistent with the
laws of Florida.

         11.12    Standard of Review. Except as otherwise provided herein, any
document, writing or instrument required or permitted to be delivered to Bank
under this Agreement shall be deemed satisfactory only if approved by Bank in
the exercise of its reasonable discretion.

         11.13    Participation. Borrower acknowledges that Bank may, at its
option, sell participation interests in the Loans to participating banks,
subject to complying with FIRPTA. The amounts of any such participation shall be
determined solely by the Bank. Borrower agrees with each present and future
participant in the Loans, the names and addresses of which will be furnished to
Borrower, that if an Event of Default should occur, each present and future
participant shall have all of the rights and remedies of Bank with respect to
any deposit due from any participant to Borrower. The execution by a participant
of a participation agreement with Bank, and the execution by Borrower of this
Agreement, regardless of the order of execution, shall evidence an agreement
between Borrower and said participant in accordance with the terms of this
Section. If Bank participates the Loan, Borrower shall only be required to make
payment at one location and deal with a single service at any given time.


                                       30
<PAGE>

         11.14    Miscellaneous. This Agreement and the instruments and
agreements referred to herein or called for hereby supersede and incorporate all
representations, promises, and statements, oral or written, made by the Bank in
connection with the Loans or in connection with the Original Loan Agreement.
This Agreement may not be varied, altered, or amended except by a written
instrument executed by an authorized officer of the Bank. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed and
delivered, shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute
one and the same instrument. Any provision in this Agreement which may be
unenforceable or invalid under any law shall be ineffective to the extent of
such unenforceability or invalidity without affecting the enforceability or
validity of any other provisions hereof.

         11.15    Joint and Several Liability. All obligations of each Person
named as Borrower shall be joint and several obligations of all such Persons.
Each representation, warranty and covenant shall be deemed true and/or complied
with, as the case may be, only (i) if true or complied with with respect to each
separate entity constituting a Borrower taken on its own without reference to
the other Borrower entities, and (ii) if true or complied with with respect to
all entities constituting Borrower taken as a whole.

         11.16    General Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
Law, Borrower waives, except as provided in the Loan Documents (i) presentment,
demand and protest and notice of presentment, protest, default, nonpayment,
maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all
commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel
paper and guaranties at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way
be liable; (ii) any bond or security which might be required by any court prior
to allowing Bank to exercise any of Bank's remedies, (iii) the benefit of all
valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (iv) any right Borrower may have
upon payment in full of the Obligations to require Bank to terminate its
security interest in the Collateral until the execution by Borrower of an
agreement indemnifying Bank from any loss or damage Bank may incur as the result
of dishonored checks or other items of payment received by Bank from Borrower
and applied to the Obligations; and (v) notice of Bank's acceptance hereof or of
any Loan Document.

         11.17    Maximum Interest. Regardless of any provision contained in
this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in no event shall the aggregate of
all amounts that are contracted for, charged or collected pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the Loan Documents, and that are deemed
interest under Applicable Law, exceed the Maximum Rate. No provision of this
Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents or the exercise by Bank of any right
hereunder or under any Loan Document or the prepayment by Borrower of any of the
Obligations or the occurrence of any contingency whatsoever, shall entitle Bank
to charge or receive, or to require Borrower to pay, interest or any amounts
deemed interest by Applicable Law (such amounts being referred to herein
collectively as "Interest") in excess of the Maximum Rate, and all provisions
hereof or in any Loan Document which may purport to require Borrower to pay
Interest exceeding the Maximum Rate shall be without binding force or effect to
the extent only of the excess of Interest over such Maximum Rate. Any Interest
charged or received in excess of the Maximum Rate ("Excess"), shall be
conclusively presumed to be the result of an accident and bona fide error, and
shall, to the extent received by Bank, at the option of Bank, either be applied
to reduce the principal amount of the Obligations or returned to Borrower. The


                                       31
<PAGE>

right to accelerate the maturity of any of the Obligations does not include the
right to accelerate unaccrued interest, and no such interest will be collected
by Bank. All monies paid to Bank hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents
shall be subject to any rebate of unearned interest as and to the extent
required by Applicable Law. By the execution of this Agreement, Borrower
covenants that (i) the credit or return of any Excess shall constitute the
acceptance by Borrower of such Excess, and (ii) Borrower shall not seek or
pursue any other remedy, legal or equitable, against Bank, based in whole or in
part upon contracting for, charging or receiving any Interest in excess of the
Maximum Rate. For the purpose of determining whether or not any Excess has been
contracted for, charged or received by Bank, all interest at any time contracted
for, charged or received from Borrower in connection with this Agreement shall,
to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and
spread in equal parts throughout the full term of the Obligations. Borrower and
Bank shall, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law (i)
characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than
as Interest and (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof. The
provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Notes and
each Loan Document (whether or not any provision of this Section is referred to
therein).

         11.18    Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. Borrower and Bank hereby
waive any right to trial by jury on any claim, counterclaim, setoff, demand,
action or cause of action (a) arising out of or in any way pertaining or
relating to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Documents, or any other
instrument, document or agreement executed or delivered in connection with this
Agreement or (b) in any way connected with or pertaining or related to or
incidental to any dealings of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement,
the Notes, the Loan Documents, or any other instrument, document or agreement
executed or delivered in connection herewith or in connection with the
transactions related thereto or contemplated thereby or the exercise of either
party's rights and remedies thereunder, in all of the foregoing cases whether
now existing or hereafter arising, and whether sounding in contract, tort or
otherwise. Borrower and Bank agree that either or both of them may file a copy
of this paragraph with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary
and bargained agreement between the parties irrevocably to waive trial by jury,
and that any dispute or controversy whatsoever between them shall instead be
tried in a court of competent jurisdiction by a judge sitting without a jury.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Borrower and the Bank has caused this
instrument to be executed by its duly authorized officer and the Borrower has
caused its seal to be affixed as of the date first above written.

The undersigned officer(s) of Levitt and Sons, LLC, a Florida limited liability
company hereby certify to you as follows:

         (1)      We have reviewed the provisions of the Loan Agreement between
Borrower and you, dated as of March _____, 2002 (the "Loan Agreement"), and we
have caused to be made under our supervision a review of the activities of

Agreement. To the best of our knowledge, Borrower has kept, observed, performed,
and fulfilled each and every undertaking contained in the Loan Agreement and is
not at this time in default in the observance or performance of any of the terms
or conditions of the Loan Agreement, and no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, and no event has occurred and is continuing that, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both, would be an Event of Default, except as
follows:________________________________________________________________________

generality of the foregoing, Borrower is Solvent as of the date hereof.

         (2)      We further certify to you that no material adverse change has
occurred in either the financial condition or the business of Borrower since the
date of the Loan Agreement and that all representations and warranties set forth
within the Loan Agreement are true as of the date hereof, except as follows:

         (3)      During the period noted above, Borrower has not changed its

corporation in a merger, nor has it changed the places where the Collateral is
located, except as follows: __________.
