“The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and may not be offered and sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the closing date, except in either case in accordance with Regulation S (or Rule 144A if available) under the Securities Act. Terms used above have the meaning given to them by Regulation S.”

Terms used in this Section 8(b) have the meanings given to them by Regulation S.

9. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) The Authority agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Authority, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Authority in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you expressly for use therein.

(b) The Manager agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of

Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim), but only with reference to information furnished by the Manager to the Authority or the Initial Purchaser, as the case may be, in writing by the Manager for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Authority or the Initial Purchasers, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(c) The Manager agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Tribal Party, each person, if any, who controls any Tribal Party within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of any Tribal Party within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities related to third party actions or claims (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim), but only with reference to information furnished by the Manager to the Authority or the Initial Purchaser, as the case may be, in writing by the Manager for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Authority or the Initial Purchasers, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(d) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Tribal Council, the Authority, the Manager, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Authority or Manager within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Authority or Manager to such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Authority or Manager, as the case may be, in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Authority or Manager, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(e) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 9(a), 9(b), 9(c) or 9(d), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall

pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 9(a) and 9(b), by the Tribal Party in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 9(c), and by the members of the Tribal Council, the Authority or Manager, as the case may be, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 9(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(f) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 9(a), 9(b), 9(b) or 9(d) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims,

damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Tribal Parties, the Manager or the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 9(f)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 9(f)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Tribal Parties, the Manager or the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Tribal Parties, the Manager or the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be, in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Tribal Parties or the Manager, as the case may be, and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Tribal Parties, the Manager or the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Tribal Parties, the Manager or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(g) The Authority, Manager and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 9(f). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 9(f) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities resold by it in the initial placement of such Securities were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this

Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(h) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 9 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Authority and the Manager contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Authority or Manager, as the case may be, their respective officers or directors or any person controlling the Authority or Manager, as the case may be, and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

10. Waiver of Sovereign Immunity, Arbitration and Non-Impairment.

10.01 Irrevocable Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. Neither of the Tribal Parties consents to any suit, arbitration, legal process, enforcement proceeding, or any dispute resolution method, except as specifically provided in this Section 10.01. Each of the Tribal Parties hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives its sovereign immunity and any and all defenses based thereon with respect to any claim, demand, dispute, action or cause of action brought by any Initial Purchaser arising under or in any way connected with or related or incidental to this Agreement, as the same may be amended or modified from time to time, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise (collectively “Permitted Claims”), as further provided in Sections 10.01(a) – (f) hereof. Such waiver shall also extend (a) to permit the interpretation, enforcement and the seeking of legal or equitable relief and remedies (whether through an award or granting of specific performance, injunction, mandamus, damages or otherwise) by the parties hereto (and their successors and assigns permitted hereunder) through arbitration proceedings as herein provided, and (b) to permit judicial actions to compel, enter judgment upon, enforce, modify or vacate any award or interim injunctive relief related to the arbitration proceedings in any of the Applicable Courts described in Section 10.02 below; provided however that such consent to arbitration does not amount to a general waiver of the sovereign immunity of either of the Tribal Parties.

In connection with the foregoing waiver of sovereign immunity by each of the Tribal Parties:

(a) Duration. The waiver shall commence on the date hereof and apply to all Permitted Claims that are commenced within three years after the occurrence of the facts that are the primary basis of the action, or if later, three years from the date those facts reasonably should have been discovered by the party bringing the action;

(b) Grantees. The grantee(s) of the waiver are each party hereto, together with their successors and assigns hereunder;

(c) Scope. The scope of the waiver applies to all Permitted Claims brought to (i) interpret or enforce the provisions of this Agreement, including specifically and without limitation (including any limitation set forth in the proviso at the end of this paragraph) any claims for indemnification brought by the Initial Purchasers against the Tribal Parties under the terms of this Agreement, (ii) enforce and execute any order, judgment, or ruling resulting from such an action, or (iii) enforce any rights under the Indian Civil Rights Act, 25 U.S.C. § 1301 et seq., provided that no claim shall be brought for punitive or consequential damages or for any claim arising under federal or state securities laws;

(d) Property and Funds. The only assets or rights against which any award, judgment or other order for relief arising from this waiver may be enforced are Gaming Assets as defined in Resolution 2007-20 (the “Tribal Finance Resolution”), whether held in the name of the Authority, the Tribe or any branch, department, agency, instrumentality, division, subsidiary, authority, enterprise, corporation, business or other entity directly or indirectly owned or controlled in whole or in part by either the Authority or the Tribe. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any revenues or other property transferred by the Authority to any of the Tribal Parties in compliance with the Securities Offering Documents shall, upon transfer, no longer constitute Gaming Assets;

(e) Jurisdictions. The courts with jurisdiction with respect to the Permitted Claims are the Applicable Courts (as defined in Section 10.02 below) (subject to the obligation of each of the Tribal Parties to submit to arbitration as provided herein); and

(f) Governing Law. The law applicable to the waiver and the Permitted Claims shall be the internal laws of the State of New York, except where application of the uniform commercial code of the State of New York will not recognize a lien and the perfection of a lien on any Gaming Assets as security for any performance of each of the Tribal Parties hereunder, and the UCC of the Tribe will recognize the lien or the perfection of the lien, in which case the law the Tribe, as applicable, that recognizes the lien and perfection shall apply.

10.02 Designation of Applicable Courts and Jurisdictions. Each of the Tribal Parties hereby irrevocably consents to the following courts, jurisdictions and venues for the judicial actions described in Section 10.01 above (the “Applicable Courts”): (a) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and all courts to which any appeal therefrom may be available; (b) or if those courts lack jurisdiction over the action, any court of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York, and all courts to which any

appeal therefrom may be available; (c) if none of the foregoing courts shall have or accept jurisdiction, then the courts of the State of California, and all courts to which any appeal therefrom may be available and (d) if none of the foregoing courts shall have or accept jurisdiction, then any court of the Tribe (in the case of any Permitted Claim to which the Tribe or the Authority is a party).

10.03 Additional Waivers as to Tribal Courts. Each of the Tribal Parties hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the jurisdiction of any tribal courts now or hereafter existing or created with respect to any Permitted Claim, except as provided in clause (d) of Section 10.02 above. Each of the Tribal Parties unconditionally and irrevocably waives the application of any rule or doctrine relating to exhaustion of tribal remedies or comity or abstention that might otherwise require a Permitted Claim be heard in a tribal court.

10.04 Agreement not to Contest. In connection with any Permitted Claim, each of the Tribal Parties hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any court of the United States District Court, Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from which any appeals therefrom are available, any court of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York, County of New York, and any appellate court from which any appeals therefrom are available, or any court of the State of California and any appellate court from which any appeals therefrom are available. Each of the Tribal Parties consents to irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

10.05 Arbitration. Notwithstanding the irrevocable submission to the jurisdiction of the courts described above by each of the parties hereto, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that any party to any such instrument may (i) submit any controversy, claim, suit or other action between or among the parties thereto arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the enforcement of rights hereunder, to binding arbitration or (ii) remove any such action brought by any other party in any forum other than an arbitration contemplated hereby and submit such action to be determined by binding arbitration. Any arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrators in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy will not constitute a waiver of the right of any party hereto to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any

other party contests such action for judicial relief. Any arbitration undertaken pursuant this Agreement will take place in the City of New York, County of New York.

11. Termination. The Initial Purchasers may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Authority, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, (ii) trading of any securities of the Authority shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

12. Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 12 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and

the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Authority for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or of the Authority. In any such case either you or the Authority shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Authority to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Authority shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Authority will reimburse the Initial Purchasers or such Initial Purchasers as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

13. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Authority, the Tribe and the Initial Purchasers with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.

(b) The Authority acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Initial Purchasers have acted at arms length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Authority or any other person, (ii) the Initial Purchasers owe the Authority only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) the Initial Purchasers may have interests that differ from those of the Authority. The Authority waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Initial Purchasers arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

16. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

17. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt and if to the Initial Purchasers shall be delivered, mailed or sent to you in care of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036, Attention: High Yield Syndicate Desk, with a copy to the Legal Department; and if to the Authority shall be delivered, mailed or sent to P.O. Box 1660, El Dorado, California, 95623-1660, Attention: Chairperson.

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF OPINION OF FAEGRE & BENSON LLP

1. The Tribe is a federally recognized Indian tribe organized and existing under its Articles of Association defined in Exhibit D hereto.

2. The Issuer validly exists as a wholly owned governmental authority of the Tribe under the Authority Ordinance defined in Exhibit D hereto.

3. The Issuer has duly taken all necessary action under the Authority Ordinance and other Specified Tribal Laws to authorize the making and consummation of the offering of the Notes by the Issuer and the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party. For purposes hereof, the term “Specified Tribal Laws” means the Articles of Association and any ordinances of the Tribe or resolutions of the Tribal Council (defined below) or the Management Board (defined below) listed on Exhibit D hereto.

4. The Tribe has duly taken all necessary action under its Articles of Association and other Specified Tribal Laws to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Tribe of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

5. The Issuer is governed by its management board referred to in the Authority Ordinance (the “Management Board”), and all members of the Management Board are validly serving. The Management Board has the power to authorize officers of the Issuer to bind the Issuer and enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and are signed by the Chairman of the Tribe referred to in the Articles of Association. The officer or officers of the Issuer who have approved and executed the Transaction Documents to which the Issuer is a party possess authority to execute the Transaction Documents to which the Issuer is a party on behalf of the Issuer and to bind the Issuer thereto.

6. The Tribal Council of the Tribe referred to in the Articles of Association (the “Tribal Council”) is the governing body of the Tribe. The Tribal Council has the power to authorize officers of the Tribe to bind the Tribe and enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and are signed by the Chairman of the Tribe referred to in the Articles of Association. The officer or officers of the Tribe who have approved and executed the Transaction Documents to which the Tribe is a party possess authority to execute the Transaction Documents to which the Tribe is a party on behalf of the Tribe and to bind the Tribe thereto.

A-1

7. Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Issuer is a party, except the Notes, has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer. Each Transaction Document (except the Highway Escrow Agreement, which by its terms is governed by California law) to which the Issue is a party constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms.

8. Each of the Lakes Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Tribe and the Issuer, as applicable. While the Lakes Documents are by their terms governed by the law of a jurisdiction other than the State of New York or the State of Minnesota, and we therefore do not opine that such documents are enforceable against the Tribe or the Issuer, we are of the opinion that the Lakes Documents do not conflict in any material respect with applicable laws of the United States or Specified Tribal Laws. No further consent, approval or authorization of the Lakes Documents is required by the National Indian Gaming Commission, the Department of the Interior or any other federal governmental or regulatory authority.

9. Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Tribe is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Tribe. Each of the Transaction Documents (except the Highway Escrow Agreement, which by its terms is governed by California law) to which the Tribe is a party constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, the Tribe, enforceable against the Tribe in accordance with its terms.

10. The Compact between the Tribe and the State of California providing for the conduct of class III gaming (as that term is defined in IGRA) by the Tribe made and entered into as of September 23, 1999 (the “Compact”) has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Tribe. In compliance with the requirements of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, as amended (“IGRA”), the Compact has been approved by the Secretary of the Interior of the United States, and a notice of such approval has been published in the Federal Register, and assuming the Compact has been validly authorized, executed and delivered under the laws of California, the Compact is effective under IGRA.

11. The Tribe’s Shingle Springs Gaming Ordinance (the “Gaming Ordinance”) was validly adopted by Resolution 96-4 of the Tribal Council, approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission (the “NIGC”) in accordance with IGRA, and is in full force and effect as a law of the Tribe, and permits class II gaming (as that term is defined in IGRA) and class III gaming to be conducted by the Issuer and the Tribe.

12. The site on which the casino portion of the Project is to be located constitutes “Indian lands” situated on the Tribe’s reservation within the meaning

A-2

of 25 U.S.C. § 2703(4), and is eligible for the conduct of class II gaming and class III gaming.

13. There is no requirement under the Specified Tribal Laws or the Compact that any holder of the Notes who is (a) a federally or state regulated bank, savings and loan, or other federally- or state-regulated lending institution, (b) an agency of the federal, state or local government, (c) an investor in the Notes who, alone or in conjunction with others, holds less than 10% of all other outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or other debt securities of the Issuer, or (d) a securities dealer acting in compliance with Section 3(h)(ii) of the Financial Source Regulation (defined below), solely in its capacity as a holder of Notes, apply for or receive any individual license, any individual certificate, or any other individual authorization from any federal, state, or tribal governmental authority, to acquire or retain the rights of a holder of Notes under the Indenture. The Shingle Springs Tribal Gaming Commission (the “Tribal Gaming Commission”) has validly adopted the “Financial Source Licensing Regulation” pursuant to Resolution GC 2007-1 of the Tribal Gaming Commission on June 11, 2007, providing for licensing procedures and exemptions from licensing of certain qualified holders of the Notes, and the Tribal Gaming Commission has taken all necessary actions to license Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and exempt from licensing any holder of the Notes described in clauses (a), (b) (c), or (d) of the previous sentence.

14. The Issuer has the requisite power and authority to own and operate the Business (as defined in the Indenture), to conduct the Business as described in the Final Memorandum and to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

15. The Security Agreement (as defined in Exhibit A) is effective to create a valid security interest in the Issuer’s right, title and interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) in favor of the Collateral Agent.

16. Upon the acceptance of the Uniform Commercial Code financing statements attached hereto as Exhibit E by the Secretary of State of California and the Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, the security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) that consists of accounts (other than accounts described in Section 9-102(a)(6)(B) of the Uniform Commercial Code), general intangibles, goods, chattel paper, negotiable documents, investment property and instruments will be perfected.

17. The provisions of the Disbursement Agreement (as defined in Exhibit A) are effective to perfect a security interest in the Issuer’s rights in each of the Construction Disbursement Account, the Interest Reserve Account and the Litigation Account (as defined in the Disbursement Agreement) in favor of the Collateral Agent.

A-3

18. The provisions of the Notes Dominion Account Agreement (as defined in Exhibit A) are effective to perfect a security interest in the Issuer’s rights in the Dominion Account (as defined in the Notes Dominion Account Agreement) in favor of the Collateral Agent. The provisions of the Control Agreement (as defined in Exhibit A) are effective to perfect a security interest in the Issuer’s rights in the Deposit Account (as defined in the Control Agreement) in favor of the Collateral Agent.

19. The Notes are in the form contemplated by the Indenture. The Notes have been duly authorized by the Issuer for issuance and sale pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture and, when executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee in the manner provided in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their terms.

20. The Transaction Documents conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Final Memorandum.

21. The waivers by each of the Issuer and the Tribe of sovereign immunity from unconsented suit, arbitration or other legal proceedings contained in any of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party are in compliance in all material respects with applicable laws of the United States and Specified Tribal Laws, are irrevocable and constitute valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Issuer or the Tribe, as applicable. The consents of each of the Issuer and the Tribe to personal jurisdiction of the courts and arbitration forums contained in any of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party are in compliance in all material respects with applicable laws of the United States and Specified Tribal Laws and constitute valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Issuer or the Tribe, as applicable; provided that we express no opinion as to whether a case would proceed in such courts or forums or would be required to proceed in the Tribal Courts of the Tribe as described in the Final Memorandum under the heading “Disputes relating to the notes may be required to be heard in our Tribal court system”. The Courts of the State of New York would have personal and subject matter jurisdiction over any action against either the Issuer or the Tribe to enforce the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

22. Based on Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York (“§5-1401”), a New York Court or a federal court sitting in New York as the forum state and applying New York conflict of law rules should give effect to the designation by the parties of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law with respect to each of the Transaction Documents (except the Notes Dominion Account Agreement, which by its terms is governed by California law), except (i) as otherwise provided in Section 1-105 (2) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York, (ii) that no

A-4

opinion is rendered as to whether any such court would give effect to such designation if it were to determine that the result obtained from applying the laws of the State of New York would be contrary to a fundamental policy of a more interested jurisdiction and (iii) that the ability of any such court to give effect to such designation as required by §5-1401 may be limited by the full faith and credit clause and the due process clause of the United States Constitution and the doctrine of comity.

23. The Tribe and the Issuer are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Shingle Springs Parties,” and individually as a “Shingle Springs Party.” No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the United States or the Tribe, including the Secretary of the Interior or the Chairman of the NIGC, or pursuant to the Compact is required for any Shingle Springs Party’s execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or the issuance and delivery of the Notes by the Issuer, or the enforceability of any of the foregoing, except (i) such as have been obtained or made by the applicable Shingle Springs Party and are in full force and effect, (ii) required filings of UCC financing statements in the offices described in paragraph 16, and (iii) those consents, approvals, authorizations and orders of a type customarily obtained subsequent to the commencement of construction, and except for state securities or blue sky laws, and except that court filings and orders may be required in order to enforce any of the Transaction Documents.

24. The execution and delivery by each of the Shingle Springs Parties of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not result in any violation of the provisions of the Articles of Association. The execution and delivery by each of the Shingle Springs Parties of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder (i) will not result in any violation of the provisions any Specified Tribal Laws (other than the Articles of Association); (ii) will not constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Issuer under, any Applicable Contract; (iii) will not result in any violation of any Applicable Order that names either of the Shingle Springs Parties and is specifically directed to either Shingle Springs Party or its property and (iv) will not result in any violation of any law of the United States. We do not express any opinion, however, as to whether the execution and delivery by each of the Shingle Springs Parties of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder will constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Issuer under, any Applicable Contract with respect to any accounting or financial ratios, tests or terms or any aspect of the financial condition or results of operations of the Shingle Springs Parties. For

A-5

purposes hereof, the term “Applicable Contracts” means those agreements or instruments identified on Exhibit F hereto and the term “Applicable Orders” means those judgments, orders or decrees identified on Annex A to each of the Issuer’s Certificate and the Tribe’s Certificate.

25. The Issuer is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Notes and application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Final Memorandum under the caption “Use of Proceeds” will not be, required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

26. Assuming the accuracy of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Shingle Springs Parties, the Manager and the Initial Purchasers contained in the Purchase Agreement, no registration of the Notes under the Securities Act, and no qualification of an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act with respect thereto, is required in connection with the purchase of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers or the initial resale of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Final Memorandum; provided that no opinion is expressed as to when or under what circumstances any Notes initially sold by the Initial Purchaser may be reoffered or resold.

27. Pursuant to authority provided in the Articles of Association the Tribal Council has enacted the Shingle Springs Tribal Court Ordinance establishing a Tribal Court and a three-judge appellate panel (together, the “Tribal Courts”), which constitute the judicial branch of the Tribe. The Tribal Courts have not adopted rules of civil or appellate procedure nor rules of judicial conduct applicable to proceedings before the Tribal Courts.

28. None of the Transaction Documents, taken individually or collectively, constitutes a “management contract” requiring approval within the meaning of 25 U.S.C. § 2711, as defined in 25 C.F.R. § 502.15 or deprives the Tribe of the “sole proprietary interest and responsibility” for the conduct of the gaming activity of the Gaming Business within the meaning of IGRA.

29. Pursuant to New York General Obligations Law Section 5-501-6.b., no law regulating the maximum rate of interest which may be charged, taken or received, including Section 190.40 and Section 190.42 of the New York Penal Law, shall apply to any loan or forbearance in the amount of two million five hundred thousand dollars or more.

30. We have reviewed the statements in the Final Memorandum under the captions “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” “Description of Material Agreements,” “Descriptions of Other Indebtedness,” “Description of the Notes,” “Government Regulation,” and “Certain United States Federal Income and Estate Tax Considerations.” Insofar as such statements relate to matters of

A-6

law or purport to be summaries of legal matters, legal proceedings or certain provisions of agreements, such statements fairly present and summarize, in all material respects, the matters referred to therein.

We have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Tribal Parties and the Manager, representatives of the independent public or certified public accountants for the Tribal Parties and the Manager and with representatives of the Initial Purchaser at which the contents of the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum and related matters were discussed and, although in this letter we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum, on the basis of the foregoing, nothing has come to our attention which would lead us to believe that the Time of Sale Memorandum, as of the time the Purchase Agreement was executed, or that the Final Memorandum, as of its date or at the date hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being understood that we express no belief as to the financial statements or other financial or accounting information included in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or any amendments or supplements thereto).

Although we are not

passing upon and have not independently checked or verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum, we advise you that the attorneys with this firm that participated in such conferences have no reason to believe that anything that they have reviewed in the Time of Sale Memorandum, as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or as of the date hereof, and the Final Memorandum, as of its date or as of the date hereof (except as to the financial statements, including the notes thereto and related schedules and other financial information and data included therein or omitted therefrom as to which we are not called upon to and do not express any opinion), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

FORM OF OPINION OF HAMILTON QUIGLEY & TWAIT, PLC

1. The statements in the Final Memorandum under the captions “Risk Factors – Risks related to the Indian Gaming Industry,” “Description of Other Indebtedness,” “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” and “Description of Material Agreements,” insofar as such statements constitute summaries of documents, have been reviewed by us as special counsel with respect to Indian/gaming laws and regulations and fairly present and summarize, in all material respects, the matters referred to therein.

2. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice or filing with, any governmental authority or other regulatory body is required with respect to Indian/gaming laws and regulations in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by the Manager of the Manager Transaction Documents.

3. The execution and delivery of the Manager Transaction Documents do not, and the performance by the Manager of its obligations thereunder will not, (a) constitute a breach of, or default under, any applicable Material Manager Agreements or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Manager, or (b) result in any violation of any Indian/gaming laws and regulations applicable to the Manager.

4. The Development and Management Agreement, as amended, listed on Schedule I constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Manager, enforceable in accordance with its terms. With respect to this opinion, we note that a management contract for tribal gaming, such as the Development and Management Agreement, must be approved by the Chairman of the NIGC to be valid, and that the Development and Management Agreement has been so approved; however, under published regulations of the NIGC if the Chairman of the NIGC learns of any action or condition that violates the standards contained in certain of the NIGC’s regulations, the Chairman may require modifications of, or may void, a management contract previously approved by the Chairman, after providing the parties an opportunity for a hearing.

5. Appropriate federal, state and tribal regulatory agencies have determined that the Manager is suitable under applicable federal and tribal law, including IGRA, the Compact and the Gaming Ordinance, to have a financial interest in, or have management responsibility for, the Development and Management Agreement.
