ARTICLE XI

REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC.

Section 11.1                                                    Remedies Upon Event of Default.  Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, at the request of the Required Holders, take any or all of the following actions:

(a)                                 declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Note Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Company; and

(b)                                 exercise on behalf of itself and the Holders all rights and remedies available to it and the Holders under the Note Documents or applicable Law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Company under the Bankruptcy Code, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Notes and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Collateral Agent or any Holder.  Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, but subject in all respects to the other provisions of this Article XI, the appointment of the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies on behalf of the Holders, including upon and at the direction of the Required Holders, shall be applicable, whether inside or outside of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including any Bankruptcy Case).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject in all respect to the other provisions of this Article XI, the Collateral Agent shall have the authority to act, and at the direction of the Required Holders, shall act on the behalf of the Required Holders in any case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Code, including with respect to any proposed post-petition financing (including with respect to the consensual subordination of any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Note Document in connection with any such financing), any request for adequate protection, or any post-petition sales of assets outside of the ordinary course of business.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 11.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to any default interest applicable under the applicable Note) and (y) the Applicable Premium determined in respect of such principal amount (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law) shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protect or further notice, all of which are hereby waived.  The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each Holder has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as specifically provided for herein) and that the provision for payment of the Applicable Premium by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

42

Section 11.2                                                    Application of Funds.  Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 11.1 (or with respect to any payment or distribution received after any Notes have become immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 11.1), any amounts received on account of the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in the following order:

Section 11.3                                                    Reinstatement.  In the event that any of the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article XI shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

ARTICLE XII

Section 12.1                                                    Registration of Notes.  The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration of transfers of Notes and the principal and

43

stated interest due thereon.  The name and address of each Holder, each transfer of the Notes and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register.  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.  The Company shall give to any Holder that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered Holders.

Section 12.2                                                    Transfer and Exchange of Notes.  Upon surrender of any Note or Notes to the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Article XVII(iii)), for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note.  Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such Holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A.  Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.  The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes.  Subject to the making of PIK Payments, Notes shall not be transferred or exchanged in denominations of less than $100,000; provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $100,000.  PIK Payments on the Notes will be made in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof.  Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2.  For the avoidance of doubt, any Holder shall have the right from time to time, pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.2 to exchange one or more Notes (including any Notes representing PIK Payments) for one or more Notes in a denomination of no less than $100,000 for the purposes of combining such Notes into a Note representing the aggregate principal amount of such Notes (including any Notes representing PIK Payments).

(a)                                 in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $500,000,000 or a

44

Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

(b)                                 in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

ARTICLE XIII

PAYMENTS ON NOTES.

Section 13.1                                                    Place of Payment.  Subject to Section 13.2, payments of principal, Applicable Premium, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Las Vegas, Nevada at the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction.  The Company may at any time, by notice to each Holder, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

Section 13.2                                                    Home Office Payment.  So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the Holder of a Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 13.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Applicable Premium, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule I, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 13.1.  Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 12.2.  The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 13.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 13.2.

Section 13.3                                                    Taxes.  (a)  Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Note Party under any Note Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws.  If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Holders) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such

45

payment by a Note Party, then such Note Party shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

If any Note Party shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) such Note Party shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Holders to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Note Party shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 13.3) the applicable Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

If any Note Party shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Note Party, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Note Party, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 13.3) the applicable Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b)                                 Payment of Other Taxes by the Company.  Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of any Holder, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)                                  Tax Indemnifications.  The Company shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Holder, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 13.3) payable or paid by such Holder or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Holder, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by any Holder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)                                 Evidence of Payments.  After any payment of Taxes by the Company to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 13.3, the Company shall deliver to the relevant Holder, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental

46

Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Holder.

(e)                                  Status of Holders; Tax Documentation.  Any Holder that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Note Document shall deliver to the Company, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Holder, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company as will enable the Company to determine whether or not such Holder is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 13.3(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in such Holder’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Holder to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Holder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Company is a U.S. Person,

(i)                                     any Holder that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company on or prior to the date on which such holder becomes a Holder under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Holder is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii)                                  any Foreign Holder shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Holder becomes a Holder under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A)                               in the case of a Foreign Holder claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Note Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Note Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(B)                               executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(C)                               in the case of a Foreign Holder claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate

47

substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Holder is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(D)                               to the extent a Foreign Holder is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Holder is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Holder are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such holder may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(iii)                               if a payment made to any Holder under any Note Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such holder were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Holder shall deliver to the Company at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company as may be necessary for the Company to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Holder has complied with such Holder’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Purchaser agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 13.3 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)                                   Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any Holder determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 13.3, it shall pay to the Company an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this Section 13.3 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Holder, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Company, upon the request of the Holder, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Holder in the event the Holder is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in

48

no event will the applicable Holder be required to pay any amount to the Company pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Holder in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Holder would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require any Holder to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.

(g)                                  Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.3 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Holder and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations under the Note Documents.

Section 13.4                                                    PIK Payments.  (a)  So long as no Nevada Pledged Equity Delay Event has occurred, in connection with the payment of PIK Interest in respect of the Notes, the Company may, upon compliance with the conditions set forth in the Notes, without the consent of any of the Holders, elect to issue additional certificated Notes (“PIK Notes”) under this Agreement on the same terms and conditions as the Notes issued on the Closing (in each case, a “PIK Payment”).  In the event that the Company shall be entitled to pay PIK Interest in respect of the Notes, then the Company shall deliver a written notice to each of the Holders not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Interest Payment Date on which intends to pay such PIK Interest, which notice shall state the total amount of interest to be paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid as PIK Interest.  If no such notice is delivered by the Company prior to such date, the Company shall be deemed to have elected to make such payment in cash.

(b)                                 At the Company’s option, any PIK Interest on the Notes may be payable by issuing PIK Notes in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date.  Any PIK Note issued will be dated the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date.

49

of the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs, and (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to pay or reimburse each Holder for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs.  The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Holders and the Collateral Agent.  All amounts due under this Section 14.1 shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor.  The agreements in this Section 14.1 shall survive the repayment of all Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents.

(b)                                 Indemnification by the Company.  The Company shall indemnify the Collateral Agent and each Holder, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any outside counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Company or any other Note Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Note or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned, leased or operated by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Company or any other Note Party or any of the Company’s or such Note Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.  In connection with any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement by more than one Indemnitee, all such Indemnitees shall be represented by the same legal counsel selected by the Indemnitees; provided that if such legal counsel or any Indemnitee determines in good faith that representing all such Indemnitees is reasonably likely to result in a conflict of interest under Laws or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel or that a defense or counterclaim is available to an Indemnitee that is not available to all such Indemnitees, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of interest or to permit unqualified assertion of such a defense or counterclaim, each Indemnitee shall be entitled to separate representation.  The obligations of the Company under this Section 14.1(b) shall survive the satisfaction and

50

discharge or termination for any reason of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent.

(c)                                  Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Note Party shall assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Note or the use of the proceeds thereof irrespective of whether such Indemnitee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.  No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Note Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Without the consent of any other Person, the applicable Note Party or Parties and the Collateral Agent may (or shall, to the extent required by any Note Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Note Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law.

Section 16.2                                                    Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a)                                 Solicitation.  The Company will provide each Holder (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such Holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or any other Note Document.  The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Article XVI to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Holders.

The Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause the Subsidiaries of the Parent to, take any and all actions and make all filings (including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto) required to cause the Collateral Documents to create and maintain, as security for the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents, a valid and enforceable perfected first priority Lien and security interest in and on all of the Collateral, for which such a security interest can be created and maintained by performing such actions or making such filings (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Documents), in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens.

Section 21.2                                                    Release of Collateral.  Each Holder, irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent,

(b)                                 to subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Note Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 9.4(e) to the extent the holder of such Lien requires that the Lien of the Collateral Agent on such property be so subordinated;

Section 21.4                                                    Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Collateral Agent Under the Collateral Agreement.  Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Secured Parties distributed under the Collateral Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Secured Parties according to the provisions of this Agreement.

58

Section 21.6                                                    Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee.  In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article XXI upon the Company or a Note Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may, with prior written notice to the Company or such Note Guarantor, be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Company or a Note Guarantor or of any Officer or Officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article XXI.

Section 21.7                                                    Collateral Agent.  (a)  Each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent under this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and consents and agrees to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and each Collateral Document, as the same may be in effect or may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their respective terms.  The Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 21.7.  The provisions of this Section 21.7 are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and none of the Holders nor any of the Note Parties shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein other than as expressly provided in Section 21.3.  Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provision of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon all Holders.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with any Holder or any Note Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b)                                 The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or with respect to any specified Person, such Person’s Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and attorneys-in-fact of such Person and its Affiliates (a “Related Person”), and shall be entitled to advice of counsel at the

59

expense of the Note Parties concerning all matters pertaining to such duties, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in taking action in reliance upon any advice or opinion given by legal counsel. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or willful misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Person that it selects as long as such selection was made in good faith and with reasonable care.

(c)                                  None of the Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) or under or in connection with any Note Document or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any other Note Party or Affiliate of any Note Party, or any Officer or Related Person thereof, contained in this Agreement or any other Note Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Note Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Note Document, or for any failure of any Note Party or any other party to this Agreement or any other Note Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Note Documents or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Note Party or any Note Party’s Affiliates.

(d)                                 The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, certification, telephone message, statement, or other communication or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Company or any other Note Party), independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document.  The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Note Document (i) if such action would, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent (which may be based on the opinion of legal counsel), be contrary to applicable law or any of the Collateral Documents or any other agreement referred to herein or therein, (ii) if such action is not provided for in this Agreement or any other Note Document, (iii) if, in connection with the taking of any such action hereunder or under any of the Note Documents that would constitute an exercise of remedies hereunder or under any of the Note Documents it shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all risk of nonpayment, liability and expense that may be incurred by it, its agents or its counsel by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, or (iv) if, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Note Document, in connection with the taking of any such action that would constitute a payment due under any agreement or document,

60

it shall not first have received from the Holders or the Note Parties funds equal to the amount payable. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement or any other Note Document to any action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement or any other Note Document if it shall not first have received from the Holders or the Note Parties funds equal to the amount payable. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement or any other Note Document to any action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement if it shall not have received such advice or concurrence of the Holders (acting in accordance with this Agreement and other Note Documents, with such direction to be binding upon all of the Holders), as it deems appropriate. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and is not intended to and will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto.

(e)                                  The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from any Holder or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by any Holder in accordance with Article XI or Required Holders (subject to this Section 21.7).

(f)                                   The Collateral Agent may resign as Collateral Agent at any time upon at least 60 day’s written notice to the Holders and the Note Parties (which may be extended up to an additional 90 days upon reasonable request by the Note Parties) and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Holders, with any such resignation or removal to become effective only upon the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent under this Section and receipt of any required approval of such appointment by the Gaming Authorities where applicable.  If the Collateral Agent shall provide notice of its resignation or be removed as Collateral Agent, then the Required Holders or the Company may (and if no such successor shall have been appointed within 45 days of the Collateral Agent’s date of notice of resignation or removal, the Collateral Agent or the Company may) appoint a successor Collateral Agent which successor agent shall, in the case of any appointment by the Collateral Agent, be reasonably acceptable to Required Holders, and the former Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Collateral Agent (except that the resigning Collateral Agent shall deliver all Collateral then in its possession to the successor Collateral Agent and shall execute and deliver to the

61

successor Collateral Agent such instruments of assignment and transfer and other similar documents as such successor Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or advisable (at the joint and several expense of the Note Parties).  After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent.  In the event that a successor Collateral Agent is not appointed within the time period specified in this Section following the provision of a notice of resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Company or any other Secured Party representing at least 10% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent (at the joint and several expense of the Note Parties).  Upon providing its notice of resignation as provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation with respect to, or liability for failure to, seek or obtain gaming licenses, seek or obtain gaming regulatory approvals, or comply with any conditions imposed by a Gaming Authority.  In the event that the Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to an asset, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to perform any obligation under any Collateral Document, which in the Collateral Agent’s sole determination may cause the Collateral Agent to incur potential liability under any environmental law, the Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to resign as the Collateral Agent.

(g)                                  Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Other Note Documents, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or other Related Persons shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(h)                                 The Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Note Documents to which it is party, whether executed on or after the Closing Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) make the representations of the Holders set forth in the Collateral Documents and Intercreditor Agreement, (iv) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and (v) perform and observe its obligations under the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and the Intercreditor Agreement.

(i)                                     The Collateral Agent is each Holder’ agent for the purpose of perfecting the Secured Parties’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected only by possession.  Should any Holder obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon request from the Company, such Holders shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

(j)                                    The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Note Party or is cared for,

62

protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all or the Note Party’s property constituting collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Collateral Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, or any Other Note Document other than pursuant to the instructions of the Required Holders or as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the any Holder as to any of the foregoing.

(k)                                 If the Company or any Note Guarantor (i) incurs any obligations in respect of First Lien Obligations at any time when no Intercreditor Agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting First Lien Obligations entitled to the benefit of an existing Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the First Lien Obligations so incurred, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Company, including legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent and its counsel), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

(l)                                     If the Company or any Note Guarantor incurs any obligations secured on a junior priority basis to the Notes and delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on terms that are customary for such financings as determined by the Company in good faith reflecting the subordination of such Liens to the Liens securing the Obligations under the Note Documents) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Indebtedness, which is secured on a junior priority basis to the Obligations under the Note Documents, so incurred, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Company, including legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

(m)                             No provision of this Agreement, or any other Note Document shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders if it shall not have received indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent relating thereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Note Document in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to

63

acquire title, control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders in an amount and in a form all satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability.  The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this paragraph (m) if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.

(n)                                 The Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Documents or instrument referred to herein or therein, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Company (and money held in trust by the Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law) and (iii) may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.

(o)                                 The Collateral Agent shall  not incur any liability for any delay or failure to perform any act or fulfill any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Collateral Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility).

(p)                                 The Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Company or any other Note Party under this Agreement or any other Note Document.  The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Holders or any other Person for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any of the Note Documents or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Note Document; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any other Note Document of any other party thereto; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents; the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any obligor; or for any failure of any obligor to perform its Obligations under this Agreement or any other Note Document.  The

64

(r)                                    Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Company signed by one Officer of the Company (a “Collateral Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder, any Collateral Document in form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to be executed after the Closing Date.  Such Collateral Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Collateral Document Order referred to in, this Section 21.7(r), and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Collateral Document.  Any such execution of a Collateral Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Company, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Collateral Document have been satisfied.  The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Collateral Documents.  The Collateral Agent shall have no liability with respect to signing such document presented to it in accordance with this paragraph.

(s)                                   Subject to the provisions of the applicable Collateral Documents and the other Note Documents, each Holder, by acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement, the Note Guaranty and the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Agreement or the other Note Documents and shall not be required to make or give any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the Required Holders.

(v)                                 Subject to the terms of the Collateral Documents, in each case that the Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder or under any other Note Document to take any action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder or under any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent will only do so upon direction and receiving indemnity satisfactory to it from the Required Holders. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction from the Required Holders.  Subject to the terms of the Collateral Documents, until the Collateral Agent receives direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes with respect to any Action, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such Action unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received direction from the Required Holders, and the Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

(w)                               The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the existence, genuineness, value or protection of any Collateral, for the legality, effectiveness or sufficiency of any Security Document, or for the creation, perfection, priority, sufficiency or protection of any liens securing the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Collateral Agent to file financing statements or continuation statements, or be responsible for maintaining the security interests purported to be created as described herein (except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document) and such responsibility shall be solely that of the Note Parties.

(x)                                 Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of the Company or the Note Guarantors, it may require an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 4.4.  The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

(y)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the instructions of the Holders solely with respect to the Collateral Documents, the Note Guaranty, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral.

(z)                                  The Company shall pay compensation to, reimburse expenses of and indemnify the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 14.1(b).

66

(aa)                          In connection with any actions taken pursuant to this Agreement or any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent shall also be entitled to all rights, protections and immunities granted to it under the Note Documents.  In the event of any conflict relating to such rights, protections or immunities, the terms of the Note Security Agreement shall govern.

Section 21.8                                                    Designations.  Except as provided in the next sentence, for purposes of the provisions hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement requiring the Company to designate Indebtedness for the purposes of the term “First Lien Obligations,” or any other such designations hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement, any such designation shall be sufficient if the relevant designation is set forth in writing, signed on behalf of the Company by an Officer and delivered to the Holders and the Collateral Agent. For all purposes hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Company hereby designate the Obligations pursuant to this agreement as “First Priority Obligations” or hereunder as “First Lien Obligations.”

Section 21.9                                                    No Impairment of the Security Interests.  Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement and the other Note Documents, neither the Company nor any of the Note Guarantors will be permitted to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action, which action or omission would have the result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Holders.
