A. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, in the case of the Term A Loans and the Term B Delayed Draw Loans, the designation of LCR as a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 6.15), each Lender hereby severally agrees to make the Loans described in this subsection 2.1.A.

(i) Term A Loans. From time to time on any Business Day occurring from and after the Closing Date but on or prior to the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Lender that has a Term A Loan Commitment (referred to as a "Term A Loan Lender"), agrees that it will severally make loans (relative to such Lender, its "Term A Loans") to any Borrower equal to such Lender's Term A Percentage of the aggregate amount of each borrowing of the Term A Loans requested by such Borrower to be made on such day. No amounts paid or prepaid with respect to Term A Loans may be reborrowed. No Term A Loan Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Term A Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount

of all Term A Loans of such Term A Loan Lender would exceed such Lender's Term A Percentage of the then existing Term A Loan Commitment Amount. Each Lender's Term A Loan Commitment shall expire on the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date.

(ii) Term B Funded Loans. In a single borrowing, on the Closing Date, each Lender that has a Term B Funded Loan Commitment (referred to as a "Term B Funded Loan Lender"), agrees that it will severally make loans (relative to such Lender, its "Term B Funded Loans") to any Borrower equal to such Lender's Term B Funded Percentage of the aggregate amount of the borrowing of the Term B Funded Loans requested by such Borrower to be made on such day. No amounts paid or prepaid with respect to Term B Funded Loans may be reborrowed. No Term B Funded Loan Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Term B Funded Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term B Funded Loans of such Term B Funded Loan Lender would exceed such Lender's Term B Funded Percentage of the then existing Term B Funded Loan Commitment Amount. Each Lender's Term B Funded Loan Commitment shall expire following the making of the Term B Funded Loans on the Closing Date.

(iii) Term B Delayed Draw Loans. From time to time on any Business Day occurring from and after the Closing Date but on or prior to the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Lender that has a Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment (referred to as a "Term B Delayed Draw Loan Lender"), agrees that it will severally make loans (relative to such Lender, its "Term B Delayed Draw Loans") to any Borrower equal to such Lender's Term B Delayed Draw Percentage of the aggregate amount of each borrowing of the Term B Delayed Draw Loans requested by such Borrower to be made on such day. No amounts paid or prepaid with respect to Term B Delayed Draw Loans may be reborrowed. No Term B Delayed Draw Loan Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Term B Delayed Draw Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term B Delayed Draw Loans of such Term B Delayed Draw Loan Lender would exceed such Lender's Term B Delayed Draw Percentage of the then existing Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Amount. Each Lender's Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment shall expire on the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date.

(iv) Revolving Loans. From time to time on any Business Day occurring from and after the Closing Date but prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Lender that has a Revolving Loan Commitment (referred to as a "Revolving Loan Lender"), agrees that it will severally make loans (relative to such Lender, its "Revolving Loans") to Venetian equal to such Lender's RL Percentage of the aggregate amount of each borrowing of the Revolving Loans requested by Venetian to be made on such day. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Venetian may from time to time borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. No Revolving Loan Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans of such Revolving Loan Lender, together with such Lender's RL Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage, would exceed such Lender's RL Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount and in no event shall the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments at any time exceed the Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect. Each Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment shall expire on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and all Revolving Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be repaid in full no later than that date.

B. Borrowing Mechanics. Loans made on any Funding Date (other than Revolving Loans made pursuant to subsection 3.3B for the purpose of reimbursing any Issuing Lender for the amount of a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it), shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of (y) $3,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount in the case of Term A

Loans and Term B Loans and (z) $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in the case of Revolving Loans.

Whenever the Borrowers desire that Lenders make Term Loans (other than the Initial Credit Extensions on the Closing Date, Term A Loans on the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, and Term B Delayed Draw Loans on the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date) or Project Cost Revolving Loans, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Disbursement Agent the Advance Request and related documentation required by the terms of Section 2.4.1(a) of the Disbursement Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Borrowing Notice for a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrowers shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

All proceeds of Term B Funded Loans not otherwise used to consummate a portion of the Refinancing or pay Transaction Costs on the Closing Date shall be deposited in the Holding Account. All Term A Loans not otherwise borrowed prior to the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date may be borrowed on the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date and deposited in the Bank Proceeds Account, following delivery of a Borrowing Notice with respect to such Term A Loans setting forth the information required thereby. All Term B Delayed Draw Loans not otherwise borrowed prior to the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date may be borrowed on the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date and deposited in the Bank Proceeds Account, following delivery of a Borrowing Notice with respect to such Term B Delayed Draw Loans setting forth the information requested thereby.

The Borrowers hereby agree not to request that Lenders make Term A Loans until all Term B Loans have been drawn, and not to request that Lenders make Project Cost Revolving Loans until all Term A Loans have been drawn.

C. Lending of Funds. All Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender to make the particular type of Loan requested be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder. Promptly after receipt by the

Administrative Agent of (x) in the case of Term Loans (other than the initial Credit Extensions on the Closing Date, Term A Loans on the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, and Term B Delayed Draw Loans on the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date) or Project Cost Revolving Loans, an Advance Request and Construction Consultant's certificate from the Disbursement Agent, or (y) if no delivery is required pursuant to clause (x), in the case of any Term Loans or any Revolving Loans, a Borrowing Notice pursuant to subsection 2.1B, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. Each Lender shall (unless in the case of Term Loans or Project Cost Revolving Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have subsequently received a Stop Funding Notice) make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date (which in the case of Term Loans (other than the initial Credit Extensions on the Closing Date, Term A Loans on the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, and Term B Delayed Draw Loans on the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date) and Project Cost Revolving Loans shall be the "Advance Date" specified in the applicable Advance Notice), in same day funds in Dollars, at the Funding and Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent shall make such funds (a) in the case of Term Loans or Project Cost Revolving Loans, available to the Disbursement Agent in the Bank Proceeds Account (or, in the case of Credit Extensions on the Closing Date other than proceeds of such Credit Extensions used to consummate a portion of the Refinancing or to pay Transaction Costs on the Closing Date, the Holding Account) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date (and in so doing such Loans shall be deemed made available to the Borrowers hereunder) and the Disbursement Agent shall then make the proceeds of such Loans available to the Borrowers in accordance with and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the Disbursement Agreement, and (b) in the case of all other Loans other than Project Cost Revolving Loans, available to the Borrowers no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date. Except as provided in subsection 3.3B with respect to Revolving Loans used to reimburse any Issuing Lender for the amount of a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified in subsection 4.2, the Administrative Agent shall make the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent from Lenders available by crediting the account of the Borrowers at the Funding and Payment Office in the amount of such Loans.

The Administrative Agent shall notify each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt of any Stop Funding Notice, but shall bear no liability if, despite the receipt of such Stop Funding Notice, any Lender makes available any money to the Administrative Agent in respect of the requested Loans. In such event, the Administrative Agent shall refund the amount received by it as promptly as possible and in any event by the following Business Day.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Funding Date for any Loans that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender's Loan requested on such Funding Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such Funding Date and the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Funding Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the rate payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans. Nothing in this subsection 2.1C shall be deemed to relieve any

Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

The Register, as in effect at the close of business on the preceding Business Day, shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Commitment and the Loans (in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1) from time to time of each Lender, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender's Commitments or the Obligations of any Loan Party in respect of any applicable Loans.

(iii) Each Lender shall record on its internal records (including the Notes held by such Lender) the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender's Commitments or the Obligations of any Loan Party in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided, further that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender's records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(iv) The Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in subsection 10.1B(ii). Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.

E. Notes. The Borrowers agree that, upon request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrowers will execute and deliver to such Lender a Note evidencing the Loans made by, and payable to the order of, such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender's Percentage of the original applicable Commitment. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender's Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on each Obligor absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Loan Party.

Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.6 and 2.7, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan shall be selected by the Borrowers initially at the time a Borrowing Notice is given with respect to such Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1B, and the basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to subsection 2.2D. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day that Loan shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate. Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E and 2.7, the Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum as follows:

(a) if a Base Rate Loan, then from the date of funding of such Loan at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such Loans; or

(b) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then from the date of funding of such Loan at the sum of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such Loans.

All Eurodollar Rate Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.

B. Interest Periods. In connection with each Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrowers may, pursuant to the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an "Interest Period") to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be, at Borrowers' option, either a one, two, three or six month period; provided that:

(i) the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the applicable Conversion/Continuation Notice, in the case of a Loan converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan;

(ii) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Conversion/Continuation Notice, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(iii) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(iv) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to subsection 2.2B(v), end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(v) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Loans shall extend beyond the Maturity Date for such Loans;

(vi) no Interest Period shall extend beyond a date on which Borrowers are required to make a scheduled payment of principal of the Loans or a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments is scheduled to occur unless the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of Loans

that are Base Rate Loans plus (b) the aggregate principal amount of Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans with Interest Periods expiring on or before such date plus (c) the excess of the Commitments then in effect over the aggregate principal amount of the Loans then outstanding equals or exceeds the principal amount required to be paid on the Loans or the permanent reduction of the Commitments that is scheduled to occur, on such date;

(vii) there shall be no more than 9 Interest Periods outstanding at any time;

(viii) in the event Borrowers fail to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month; and

(ix) the Borrowers may not select an Interest Period of greater than one month until sixty days after the Closing Date (unless prior thereto the Syndication Agent provides written notice that the syndication has been completed).

C. Interest Payments. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2E, interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to such Loan, shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid, and shall be payable in arrears at maturity of the Loans, including final maturity of the Loans; provided, however, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date.

D. Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6, the Borrowers shall have the option (i) to convert at any time all or any part of its outstanding Loans equal to $3,000,000 (or $1,000,000 in the case of Revolving Loans) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to one basis to Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to an alternative basis or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $3,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided, however, that a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable thereto.

Borrowers shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan). A Conversion/Continuation Notice shall specify (i) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount and type of the Loan to be converted/continued, (iii) the nature of the proposed conversion/continuation, (iv) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period, and (v) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, that no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In lieu of delivering the above-described Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrowers may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2D; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date. Upon receipt of written or telephonic notice of any proposed conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2D, the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit such notice by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to the Borrowers in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that the Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other Person authorized to act on behalf of the Borrowers or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.2D, and upon conversion or

continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such telephonic notice Borrowers shall have effected a conversion or continuation, as the case may be, hereunder.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrowers shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

E. Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of all Loans and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments thereon not paid when due and any fees and other amounts then due and payable hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans); provided that, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in the interest rate is effective such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this subsection 2.2E is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

F. Computation of Interest and Commitment Fees. Interest on the Loans and commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of (i) a 360-day year, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) a 365 or 366-day year, in respect of Base Rate Loans and commitment fees, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, (i) the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term B Loan during any period when such Loans may be assigned through a Settlement Service, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term B Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and (ii) the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or, with respect to a Term B Loan during any period when such Loans may be assigned through a Settlement Service, the current Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term B Loan as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day's interest shall be paid on that Loan.

2.3 Fees.

A. Commitment Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to each (i) Revolving Loan Lender in proportion to that Lender's Pro Rata Share, commitment fees for the period from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date equal to the average of the daily excess of the Revolving Loan Commitments over the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans but not the Letter of Credit Usage plus (B) the Letter of Credit Usage multiplied by 0.50% per annum, (ii) each Term A Loan Lender in proportion to that Lender's Pro Rata Share, commitment fees for the period from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date equal to the average of the daily unused Term A Loan Commitments multiplied by 1.50% per annum, and (iii) each Term B Delayed Draw Loan Lender in proportion to that Lender's Pro Rata Share, commitment fees for the period from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date equal to the average of the daily unused Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments multiplied by 0.75% per annum, in each case such commitment fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, or the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date, as applicable.

B. Annual Administrative Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent an annual administrative fee in the amount and at the times set forth in the Administrative Agent's Fee Letter.

B. Prepayments and Unscheduled Reductions in Commitments.

(i) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers may, upon not less than one Business Day's prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and three Business Days' prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case given to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender), at any time and from time to time prepay any Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount; provided, however, that with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan not prepaid on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto the Borrowers shall pay any amount payable pursuant to subsection 2.6D; provided, further, that no such voluntary prepayments will be permitted prior to the Substantial Completion Date unless the Borrowers demonstrate in an Officers' Certificate that the Phase II Project is In Balance on a pro forma basis for such prepayment. Notice of prepayment having been given as aforesaid, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in subsection 2.4B(iv).

(ii) Voluntary Reductions of Commitments. The Borrowers may, upon not less than three Business Days' prior written or telephonic notice confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, (A) the Revolving Loan Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Loan Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction, (B) the Term A Loan Commitments, or (C) the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments; provided that any such partial reduction of such Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount; provided, further, that no such voluntary commitment reductions will be permitted prior to the Substantial Completion Date unless the Borrowers demonstrate in an Officers' Certificate that the Phase II Project is In Balance on a pro forma basis for such commitment reduction; provided, further, that in the case of any such reduction of Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments, Term B Loans are prepaid concurrently (pursuant to the provisions of subsection 2.4B(i)), pro rata for the amount of Term B Loans outstanding at that time. The Borrowers' notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of such Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrowers' notice and shall reduce such Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share. Any such voluntary reduction of the Commitments shall be applied as specified in subsection 2.4B(iv).

(iii) Mandatory Prepayments. The Loans shall be prepaid in the amounts and under the circumstances set forth below, all such prepayments to be applied as set forth below or as more specifically provided in subsection 2.4B(iv):

(a) Prepayments From Net Asset Sale Proceeds. No later than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrowers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Asset Sale Proceeds in respect of any Asset Sale (other than Net Asset Sale Proceeds in respect of the sale of (i) any obsolete worn out or surplus assets or assets no longer used or useful in the business of the Resort Complex, and (ii) construction equipment having a fair market value not in excess of $4,000,000 prior to Substantial Completion or during the first year following Substantial Completion, but only in each case to the extent reinvested in the business of the Borrowers or

such Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days of receipt), the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds.

(b) Prepayments from Net Loss Proceeds. Subject to the Cooperation Agreement, no later than the fifth Business Day on which Net Loss Proceeds are required to be applied to prepayment of Loans pursuant to the last sentence of this subsection 2.4B(iii)(b), the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Net Loss Proceeds; provided, however, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may use such Net Loss Proceeds to repair, restore and replace the property or asset with respect to which such Net Loss Proceeds were paid in order to compensate the Borrowers for the Event of Loss which occurred thereto so long as such Net Loss Proceeds are used for such purposes within 365 days of the Borrowers' receipt of such Net Loss Proceeds. To the extent such Net Loss Proceeds are not so reinvested, the Borrowers will make a prepayment of the Loans within five Business Days of the end of such 365 day period.

(c) Prepayments Due to Reversion of Surplus Assets of Pension Plans. On the fifth Business Day following the date of return to the Borrowers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of any surplus assets of any pension plan of the Borrowers or any for their Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount (such amount being the "Net Pension Proceeds") equal to 100% of such returned surplus assets, net of transaction costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such return, including incremental taxes payable as a result thereof.

(d) Prepayments Due to Incurrence of Debt. On the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrowers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries, of the proceeds (including Cash, real property or other property) (any such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, being "Net Proceeds") from the incurrence of any debt of the Borrowers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any debt expressly permitted under subsection 7.1), the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds.

(e) Calculations of Net Proceeds Amounts; Additional Prepayments Based on Subsequent Calculations. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(d), the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate demonstrating the calculation of the amount (the "Net Proceeds Amount") of the applicable Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Net Loss Proceeds, Net Pension Proceeds or Net Proceeds, as the case may be, that gave rise to such prepayment. In the event that the Borrowers shall subsequently determine that the actual Net Proceeds Amount was greater than the amount set forth in such Officers' Certificate, the Borrowers shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such excess, and Borrowers shall concurrently therewith deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate demonstrating the derivation of the additional Net Proceeds Amount resulting in such excess.

(f) Prepayments Due to Residual Term Loan Proceeds.

(1) On the date that is the earlier of (a) the date that the full amount of funds required to be deposited in the Phase II Hotel/Casino Equity Account have been applied to pay Phase II Project Costs, and (b) December 31, 2005 (as such date may be extended in accordance with the terms of Section 6.3.2 of the Disbursement Agreement to the same extent that the Outside Completion Deadline may be extended thereunder due to Events of Force Majeure), if the conditions precedent to the Initial Bank Advance set forth in Section 3.4 of the Disbursement Agreement have not been met, any proceeds of Term Loans on deposit in the Term Loan Disbursement Agreement shall be applied within five Business Days by the

Borrowers to prepay the Loans, and all outstanding Term A Loan Commitments and Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments shall be immediately terminated; and

(2) on the Final Completion Date, pursuant to the terms of the Disbursement Agreement, any proceeds of Term Loans or Revolving Loans remaining in the Bank Proceeds Account shall be applied to prepay the Loans.

(g) Prepayments Due to Reductions or Restrictions of Revolving Loan Commitments. The Borrowers shall from time to time prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect.

(h) Drawings on Conforming Adelson L/Cs. In the event that any Conforming Adelson L/C Draw Event shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent may draw down on each outstanding Conforming Adelson L/C in its entirety. For the avoidance of doubt, a Conforming Adelson L/C Draw Event shall be in addition to an Event of Default described in Section 8 and (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any rights or remedy under Section 8 in order to draw on the Conforming Adelson L/Cs and (ii) any drawing on a Conforming Adelson L/C shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the request of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall release any Conforming Adelson L/C or a portion thereof in its possession to the Borrowers, provided that each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied: (i) no Conforming Adelson L/C Draw Event shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Borrowers shall at such time be in compliance with subsection 7.6 and shall have been in compliance therewith for the preceding four consecutive quarters (without giving effect to any such Conforming Adelson L/C or a portion thereof or any substitute cash equity contribution by Adelson or his Affiliates), (iii) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iv) since the last day of the preceding calendar year, no event or change shall have occurred that caused, in any case or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(iv) Application of Prepayments.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loan and Order of Maturity. Any voluntary prepayments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i) shall be applied as specified by the Borrowers in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided that in the event the Borrowers fail to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied first to repay outstanding Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof on a pro rata basis and second to repay outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with subsection 2.4B(iv)(c).

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans.

(1) General Application. Any amount (the "Applied Amount") required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(f) or (h) shall be applied to first prepay the Term Loans on a pro rata basis to the full extent thereof and second, to the extent of any remaining portion of the Applied Amount, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof (without any reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments).

(2) Term A Loans. If, at any time prior to the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, any prepayments of Term A Loans are required pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(iv)(b) in an amount exceeding the Term A Loans then outstanding (the excess of the portion of the Applied Amount to be applied to Term A Loans over the aggregate principal amount of Term A Loans then outstanding, the "Excess A Amount") then: (A) the outstanding Term A Loans shall be prepaid in full, (B) the lesser of (x) the Excess A Amount and (y) an amount equal to

the remaining Term A Loan Commitments shall be deposited into the Bank Proceeds Account, and (C) an amount of Term A Loan Commitments equal to the Excess A Amount, or if less, the remaining Term A Loan Commitments, shall be canceled.

(3) Term B Delayed Draw Loans. If, at any time prior to the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date, any prepayments of Term B Loans are required pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(iv)(b), funded Term B Loans shall be prepaid and Term B Delayed Draw Commitments shall be reduced pro rata. Upon the reduction of any Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments hereunder, a portion of the Applied Amount equivalent to the amount of such reduction shall be deposited into the Bank Proceeds Account.

(c) Application of Prepayments of Term Loans to the Scheduled Installments of Principal Thereof. Any prepayments of a tranche of Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i) or 2.4B(iii)(a)-(f) or (h) shall be applied to reduce the scheduled installments of principal of such tranche of Term Loans set forth in subsection 2.4A, on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any such prepayment of the Term B Loans otherwise required to be applied pursuant to this subsection, any Term B Loan Lender may elect not to have its Term B Loans prepaid by delivering a notice to the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day prior to the date that such prepayment is to be made in which notice such Lender shall decline to have such Term B Loans prepaid with the amounts set forth above, in which case the amounts that would have been applied to a prepayment of such Term B Loan Lender's Term B Loans shall instead be applied to a prepayment of the principal amount (if any) of all outstanding Term A Loans (in accordance with the terms of subsection 2.4(B)(iv)(b)(2) above) until all outstanding Term A Loans have been prepaid in full and then to a repayment of outstanding Revolving Loans. Following the repayment of Term A Loans in full and the repayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, all amounts that would have been used to prepay Term A Loans as a result of the preceding sentence shall be used to prepay outstanding Term B Loans. Any remaining proceeds shall be returned to the Borrowers.

(d) Application of Prepayments to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Considering Loans being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrowers pursuant to subsection 2.6D.

C. General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(i) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments by the Borrowers of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations hereunder and under the Notes shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Funding and Payment Office for the account of Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by the Borrowers on the next succeeding Business Day. The Borrowers hereby authorize Administrative Agent to charge their accounts with Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).

(ii) Application of Payments to Principal and Interest. All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal.

(iii) Apportionment of Payments. Aggregate principal and interest payments in respect of Loans shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans proportionately to Lenders' respective Pro Rata Shares. The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender, at its primary address set forth on Schedule 2.1 or at such other address as such Lender may request, its Pro Rata Share of all such payments received by the Administrative Agent and the commitment fees of such Lender when received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.4C(iii), if, pursuant to the provisions of subsection 2.6C, any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(iv) Payments on Business Days. Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" as they may apply to Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the commitment fees hereunder, as the case may be.

(v) Notation of Payment. Each Lender agrees that before disposing of any Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting participations therein), that Lender will make a notation thereon of all Loans evidenced by that Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or any error in the making of) a notation of any Loan made under such Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under such Note with respect to any Loan or any payments of principal or interest on such Note.

2.5 Use of Proceeds.

A. Revolving Loans. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans shall be applied by the Borrowers for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries (including at any time after the disbursement from the Disbursement Account of the proceeds of all Term Loans then available to be borrowed, up to $85,000,000 at any time outstanding (minus the then current Letter of Credit Usage) of such proceeds to finance Phase II Project Costs).

B. Term A Loans. The proceeds of the Term A Loans shall be applied by the Borrowers to pay Phase II Project Costs.

C. Term B Loans. The proceeds of the Term B Loans shall be applied by the Borrowers to consummate the Refinancing, pay Transaction Costs, and pay Phase II Project Costs.

D. New Term Loans. The proceeds of the New Term Loans, if any, may be used by the Borrowers for general corporate purposes.

E. FF&E Deposit Loans. A portion (up to an aggregate of $50,000,000 at any time outstanding) of the Term A Loans and Term B Loans may be used temporarily as FF&E Deposit Loans if, and during the periods when, the funding conditions under an FF&E Facility Agreement have not been met, subject to the reimbursement provisions hereof.

F. Margin Regulations. No portion of the proceeds of any borrowing under this Agreement shall be used by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries in any manner that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation U, Regulation T or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board or to violate the Exchange Act, in each case as in effect on the date or dates of such borrowing and such use of proceeds.

2.6 Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to the matters covered:

A. Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable after 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and each Lender.

B. Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurodollar Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (ii) any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrowers with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be made with respect to Base Rate Loans.

C. Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not in effect on the date such Person became a Lender (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) would cause such Lender material financial hardship as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affect the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an "Affected Lender" and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender (which such Affected Lender shall do at the earliest practicable date), (b) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by the Borrowers pursuant to a Borrowing Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (c) the Affected Lender's obligation to maintain its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the "Affected Loans") shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this subsection 2.6C shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

D. Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by that Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by that Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by that Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) which that Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by that Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, as applicable, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation, (ii) if any prepayment (including any prepayment pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i)) or other principal payment or any conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan, (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrowers, or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrowers in the repayment of its Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement.

E. Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

F. Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection 2.6 and under subsection 2.7A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this subsection 2.6 and under subsection 2.7A.

G. Eurodollar Rate Loans After Default. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, (i) Borrowers may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrowers with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed made with respect to Base Rate Loans.

2.7 Increased Costs; Taxes; Capital Adequacy.

A. Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.7B (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

(i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of such Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of its

obligations hereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder;

(ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate); or

(iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the interbank Eurodollar market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this subsection 2.7A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

B. Withholding of Taxes.

(i) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within the United States or any political subdivision in or of the United States or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of the Borrowers or by any federation or organization of which the United States or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment, all such non-excluded Taxes being hereinafter collectively referred to as "Included Taxes".

(ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If the Borrowers or any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Included Tax from any sum paid or payable by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(a) the Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the Borrowers become aware of it;

(b) the Borrowers shall pay any such Included Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on the Borrowers) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Lender;

(c) the sum payable by the Borrowers in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case

may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and

(d) within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after the due date of payment of any Included Tax which it is required by clause (b) above to pay, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority;

provided that no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Lender under clause (c) above except to the extent that any change after the date hereof (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or after the date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender) in any such requirement for a deduction, withholding or payment as is mentioned therein shall result in an increase in the rate of such deduction, withholding or payment from that in effect at the date of this Agreement or at the date of such Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, in respect of payments to such Lender; provided however that in the case of an assignment, if the assignor was entitled to additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7B, then such assignee shall be entitled to such additional amounts.

(iii) Evidence of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.

(a) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or other political subdivision thereof (a "Non-US Lender") shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrowers, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Borrowers or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (1) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code or the regulations issued thereunder to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents or (2) if such Lender is not a "bank" or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code, a Certificate of Non-Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code or the regulations issued thereunder to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be obligated to provide any documentation pursuant to this subsection 2.7B(iii)(a) if such Lender is not legally able to do so.

(b) Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly (1) deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrowers a Certificate of Non-Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish that such Lender is

not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents or (2) notify Administrative Agent and Borrowers of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(c) Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-US Lender under subsection 2.7B(ii)(c) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the requirements of clause (a) or (b)(1) of this subsection 2.7B(iii); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of subsection 2.7B(iii)(a) on the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), nothing in this subsection 2.7B(iii)(c) shall relieve Borrowers of their obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as described in subsection 2.7B(iii)(a).

C. Capital Adequacy Adjustment. If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the date hereof of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof after the date hereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender's Loans or Commitments or Letters of Credit or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by the Borrowers from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

2.8 Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate.

Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender or Issuing Lender responsible for administering the Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender or Issuing Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender or Issuing Lender to receive payments under subsection 2.7 or subsection 3.6 it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender or Issuing Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or maintain the Commitments of such Lender or Issuing Lender or the affected Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender through another lending or Letters of Credit office of such Lender or Issuing Lender or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender or Issuing Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender or Issuing Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 2.7 would be materially

reduced and if, as determined by such Lender or Issuing Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Commitments or Loans or Letters of Credit through such other lending or Letters of Credit office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or Letters of Credit or the interests of such Lender or Issuing Lender; provided that such Lender or Issuing Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending or Letters of Credit office pursuant to this subsection 2.8 if such Lender or Issuing Lender would incur incremental expenses as a result of utilizing such other lending office as described in clause (i) above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrowers pursuant to this subsection 2.8 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that it will not request compensation under subsection 2.7 unless such Lender or Issuing Lender requests compensation from borrowers under other lending arrangements with such Lender or Issuing Lender who are similarly situated.

2.9 Obligations Joint and Several.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that the obligation of each Borrower for payment of the Obligations shall be joint and several with the obligations of the other Borrower hereunder regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds or benefits of any borrowing hereunder. Each Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that it will receive substantial benefits from the Loans and credit facilities made available under this Agreement.

Each Borrower agrees that its joint and several obligation to pay all Obligations hereunder is irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations, and the liability of each Borrower with respect to the Obligations shall not be affected, reduced or impaired by (i) consideration of the amount of proceeds of the Loans received by any Borrower relative to the aggregate amount of the Loans, (ii) the dissolution or termination of or any increase, decrease or change in personnel of, any Borrower, (iii) the insolvency or business failure of, or any assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceedings by or against the other Borrower or (iv) the appointment of a receiver for, or the attachment, restraint of or making or levying of any order of court or legal process affecting, the property of the other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Borrower whether or not action is brought against the other Borrower and whether or not the other Borrower is joined in any such action or actions. Either Borrower's payment of a portion, but not all, of the Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge such Borrower's liability for that portion of the Obligations which is not paid.

Each Borrower hereby waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as a condition of payment or performance of the Obligations by such Borrower, to proceed against the other Borrower or any other Person, to exhaust any security held from any Borrower, or pursue any other remedy in the power of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Each Borrower hereby waives any defense arising by reason of incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense that may be available to the other Borrower and any defenses or benefits that may be derived or afforded by law which would limit the liability of or exonerate any guarantor or surety with respect to the Obligations, or which may conflict with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, other than the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations.

Any indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter held by the other Borrower is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, and any such indebtedness of a Borrower to the

other Borrower collected or received by such other Borrower after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders to be credited and applied against the Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of such other Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

2.10 Incremental Facilities. The Borrowers may by written notice to the Syndication Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the "New Term Loan Commitments"), by an amount not in excess of $100,000,000 in the aggregate and not less than $50,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Syndication Agent). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an "Increased Amount Date") on which the Borrowers propose that the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Syndication Agent. When available, the Syndication Agent will deliver a notice to the Borrowers setting forth the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a "New Term Loan Lender") to whom the Syndication Agent has allocated any portion of such New Term Loan Commitments and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Term Loan Commitment. Such New Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments and the related Credit Extensions; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 shall be satisfied; (3) the Borrowers shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Section 7.6 as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments; (4) the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrowers, the Syndication Agent and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in subsection 2.7B(iii); (5) the Borrowers shall make any payments required pursuant to subsection 2.6D in connection with the New Term Loan Commitments; and (6) the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Syndication Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a "Series") of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Loan Lender of such Series shall make a Loan to the Borrowers (a "New Term Loan") in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each New Term Loan Lender of such Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.

The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the Term B Funded Loans. In any event (i) the weighted average life to maturity of all New Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Term B Loans, (ii) the applicable New Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no earlier than the final maturity of the Term B Loans, (iii) the rate of interest applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrowers and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided however that the rate of interest and any original issue discount applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrowers and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided

further that, the yield per annum with respect to the New Term Loans (consisting of the interest rate applicable to such New Term Loans plus any applicable original issue discount with respect thereto (which original issue discount shall be equated to interest rates based on an assumed four-year average life to maturity)) shall not be greater at any time than the interest rate then applicable to Term B Loans (on a pro forma basis for the borrowing of such New Term Loans) plus 0.25% per annum, unless the Applicable Margins with respect to the Term B Loans are increased so as to comply with the provisions of this sentence. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Syndication Agent and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.10.

Section 3. Letters of Credit.

3.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit and Lenders' Purchase of Participations Therein.

A. Letters of Credit. The Borrowers may request, in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1, from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, that an Issuing Lender issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers for the purposes specified in the definitions of Commercial Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Borrowers herein set forth, any one or more Issuing Lender may, but (except as provided in subsection 3.1B(ii)) shall not be obligated to issue such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1; provided that the Borrowers shall not request that any Lender issue (and no Lender shall issue):

(i) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments would exceed the Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect;

(ii) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $75,000,000;

(iii) any Standby Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than the earlier of (a) the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (b) the date which is one year from the date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit; provided that the immediately preceding clause (b) shall not prevent any Issuing Lender from agreeing that a Standby Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each unless such Issuing Lender elects not to extend for any such additional period; and provided, further that such Issuing Lender shall elect not to extend such Standby Letter of Credit if it has knowledge that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time such Issuing Lender must elect whether or not to allow such extension;

(iv) any Commercial Letter of Credit having an expiration date (a) later than the earlier of (X) the date which is 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (Y) the date which is 180 days from the date of issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit or (b) that is otherwise unacceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion; or

(v) any Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars.

B. Mechanics of Issuance.

(i) Notice of Issuance. Whenever Borrowers desire the issuance of a Letter of Credit, they shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Issuance Notice no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days (in the case of Standby Letters of Credit) or five Business Days (in the case of Commercial Letters of Credit), or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender in any particular instance, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Issuance Notice shall specify (a) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a

Business Day), (b) whether the Letter of Credit is to be a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit, (c) the face amount of the Letter of Credit, (d) the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, (e) the name and address of the beneficiary, and (f) either the verbatim text of the proposed Letter of Credit or the proposed terms and conditions thereof, including a precise description of any documents to be presented by the beneficiary which, if presented by the beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, would require the Issuing Lender to make payment under the Letter of Credit; provided that the Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may require changes in the text of the proposed Letter of Credit or any such documents; and provided, further, that no Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft to be made thereunder on the same business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the office of the Issuing Lender to which such draft is required to be presented is located) that such draft is presented if such presentation is made after 10:00 A.M. (in the time zone of such office of the Issuing Lender) on such business day.

The Borrowers shall notify the applicable Issuing Lender (and the Administrative Agent, if Administrative Agent is not such Issuing Lender) prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit in the event that any of the matters to which Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Issuance Notice is no longer true and correct as of the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, and upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit Borrowers shall be deemed to have re-certified, as of the date of such issuance, as to the matters to which Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Issuance Notice.

(ii) Determination of Issuing Lender. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of an Issuance Notice pursuant to subsection 3.1B(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, in the event Administrative Agent elects to issue such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Borrowers, and the Administrative Agent shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto. In the event that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects not to issue such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Borrowers, whereupon Borrowers may request any other Lender to issue such Letter of Credit by delivering to such Lender a copy of the applicable Issuance Notice. Any Lender so requested to issue such Letter of Credit shall promptly notify Borrowers and the Administrative Agent whether or not, in its sole discretion, it has elected to issue such Letter of Credit, and any such Lender which so elects to issue such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto. In the event that all other Lenders shall have declined to issue such Letter of Credit, notwithstanding the prior election of the Administrative Agent not to issue such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to issue such Letter of Credit and shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto, notwithstanding the fact that the Letter of Credit Usage with respect to such Letter of Credit and with respect to all other Letters of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent, when aggregated with Administrative Agent's outstanding Revolving Loans, may exceed Administrative Agent's Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect.

(iii) Issuance of Letter of Credit. Upon satisfaction or waiver (in accordance with subsection 10.6) of the conditions set forth in subsection 4.3, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Lender's standard operating procedures.

(iv) Notification to Lenders. Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of such issuance, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of such notice (or, if Administrative Agent is the Issuing Lender, together with such notice), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the amount of such Lender's respective participation in such Letter of Credit, determined in accordance with subsection 3.1C.

(v) Reports to Lenders. Within 15 days after the end of each calendar quarter ending after the Closing Date, so long as any Letter of Credit shall have been outstanding during such calendar quarter, each Issuing Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth for such calendar quarter the daily aggregate amount available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender that were outstanding during such calendar quarter.

C. Lenders' Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Revolving Loan Lender's Pro Rata Share of the maximum amount which is or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder.

D. Outstanding Letters of Credit. The Revolving Loan Lenders acknowledge that the Outstanding Letters of Credit were issued by the Administrative Agent, as the Issuing Lender, for the account of the Borrowers pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of June 4, 2002. The Outstanding Letters of Credit are Commercial Letters of Credit or Standby letters of Credit as indicated on Schedule 3.1 and the issuance thereof is not prohibited by subsection 3.1A. As part of the Refinancing, each of the Revolving Loan Lenders acknowledges that it has irrevocably purchased from the Issuing Lender a participation in the Outstanding Letters of Credit and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Revolving Loan Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount available to be drawn under the Outstanding Letters of Credit which, as of the Closing Date, is set forth on Schedule 3.1. Each of the Outstanding Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued as of the Closing Date and governed by the terms of this Agreement.

3.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrowers agree to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued hereunder:

(i) with respect to each Standby Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting fee, payable directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account, equal to the greater of (X) $5,000 and (Y) 0.25% per annum of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Standby Letter of Credit and (b) a letter of credit fee, payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, equal to the product of (y) the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurodollar Loans that are Revolving Loans, (z) the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Standby Letter of Credit, each such fronting fee or letter of credit fee to be payable in arrears on and to (but excluding) each Quarterly Payment Date and, if applicable, on the date of any termination or expiration of such Standby Letter of Credit and computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed;

(ii) with respect to each Commercial Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting fee, payable directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account, equal to 0.25% per annum of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Commercial Letter of Credit and (b) a letter of credit fee, payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, equal to the product of (y) the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurodollar Loans that are Revolving Loans, and (z) the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Commercial Letter of Credit, each such fronting fee or letter of credit fee to be payable in arrears on and to (but excluding) each Quarterly Payment Date and, if applicable, on the date of any termination or expiration of such Commercial Letter of Credit and computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed; and

(iii) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and each payment of a drawing made thereunder (without duplication of the fees payable under clauses (i) and (ii) above), documentary and processing charges payable directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account in accordance with such Issuing Lender's standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

For purposes of calculating any fees payable under clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection 3.2, the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall be determined as of the close of business on any date of determination.

3.3 Drawings and Reimbursement of Amounts Paid Under Letters of Credit.

A. Responsibility of Issuing Lender With Respect to Drawings. In determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to examine the documents delivered under such Letter of Credit with reasonable care so as to ascertain whether they appear on their face to be in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.

B. Reimbursement by the Borrowers of Amounts Paid Under Letters of Credit. In the event an Issuing Lender has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall immediately notify Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and Borrowers shall reimburse such Issuing Lender on or before the Business Day immediately following the date on which such drawing is honored (the "Reimbursement Date") in an amount in Dollars and in same day funds equal to the amount of such honored drawing; provided that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, unless Borrowers shall have notified Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender prior to 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date such drawing is honored that the Borrowers intend to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such honored drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Notice to the Administrative Agent requesting Lenders to make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans on the Reimbursement Date in an amount in Dollars equal to the amount of such honored drawing and Lenders shall, on the Reimbursement Date, make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount of such honored drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Agent to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such honored drawing; and provided, further, that if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not received by such Issuing Lender on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such honored drawing, the Borrowers shall reimburse such Issuing Lender, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such honored drawing over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received. Nothing in this subsection 3.3B shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and Borrowers shall retain any and all rights it may have against any Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such Revolving Loans under this subsection 3.3B.

C. Payment by Lenders of Unreimbursed Amounts Paid Under Letters of Credit.

(i) Payment by Lenders. In the event that the Borrowers shall fail for any reason to reimburse any Issuing Lender as provided in subsection 3.3B in an amount equal to the amount of any drawing honored by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify each other Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such honored drawing and of such other Lender's respective participation therein based on such Lender's Pro Rata Share. Each Lender shall make available to such Issuing Lender an amount equal to its respective participation, in Dollars and in same day funds, at the office of such Issuing Lender specified in such notice, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the first business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such office of such Issuing Lender is located) after the date notified by such Issuing Lender. In the event that any Lender fails to make available to such Issuing Lender on such business day the amount of such Lender's participation in such Letter of Credit as provided in this subsection 3.3C, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the rate customarily used by such Issuing Lender for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. Nothing in this subsection 3.3C shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from any Issuing Lender any amounts made available by such Lender to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 3.3C in the event that it is determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit

by such Issuing Lender in respect of which payment was made by such Lender constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender.

(ii) Distribution to Lenders of Reimbursements Received From Borrowers. In the event any Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of any drawing honored by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to such honored drawing such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments subsequently received by such Issuing Lender from Borrowers in reimbursement of such honored drawing when such payments are received. Any such distribution shall be made to a Lender at its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate signature page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request.

D. Interest on Amounts Paid Under Letters of Credit.

(i) Payment of Interest by the Borrowers. The Borrowers agree to pay to each Issuing Lender, with respect to drawings honored under any Letters of Credit issued by it, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by the Borrowers (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B) at a rate equal to (a) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the Reimbursement Date, the rate then in effect under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (b) thereafter, a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Interest payable pursuant to this subsection 3.3D(i) shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full.

(ii) Distribution of Interest Payments by Issuing Lender. Promptly upon receipt by any Issuing Lender of any payment of interest pursuant to subsection 3.3D(i) with respect to a drawing honored under a Letter of Credit issued by it, (a) such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other Lender, out of the interest received by such Issuing Lender in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which such Issuing Lender is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B), the amount that such other Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period pursuant to subsection 3.2 if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit, and (b) in the event such Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of such honored drawing, such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to such honored drawing such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of any interest received by such Issuing Lender in respect of that portion of such honored drawing so reimbursed by other Lenders for the period from the date on which such Issuing Lender was so reimbursed by other Lenders to but excluding the date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by the Borrowers. Any such distribution shall be made to a Lender at its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate signature page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request.

3.4 Obligations Absolute.

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; or

(viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, in each case, that payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under the applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender under the circumstances in question (as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

3.5 Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lenders' Duties.

A. Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as provided in subsection 3.6, the Borrowers hereby agree to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless each Issuing Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which such Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit by such Issuing Lender, other than as a result of (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) subject to the following clause (ii), the wrongful dishonor by such Issuing Lender of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit issued by it or (ii) the failure of such Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called "Governmental Acts").

As between Borrowers and any Issuing Lender, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be

in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuing Lender's rights or powers hereunder.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this subsection 3.5B, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 3.5, the Borrowers shall retain any and all rights they may have against any Issuing Lender for any liability arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Issuing Lender or Lender (or its applicable lending or letter of credit office) regarding this Section 3 or any Letter of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Issuing Lender or Lender of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or agreeing to purchase, purchasing or maintaining any participation therein or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Issuing

Lender or Lender (or its applicable lending or letter of credit office) with respect thereto; then, in any case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Issuing Lender or Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Issuing Lender or Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.

Section 9. Agents and Arranger.

9.1 Appointment.

A. Appointment of the Administrative Agent. Scotia Capital is hereby appointed Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 (other than the second proviso to the first sentence of subsection 9.6) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; the Borrowers shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries.

B. Appointment of Supplemental Agents. It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Administrative Agent appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate collateral agent or collateral co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to here individually as a "Supplemental Agent" and collectively as "Supplemental Agents").

In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 9 and of subsections 10.2 and 10.3 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such

115

Supplemental Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Agent, as the context may require.

Should any instrument in writing from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Agent so appointed for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrowers shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by such Supplemental Agent or the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Agent, or a successor thereto, shall resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Agent.

9.2 Powers and Duties; General Immunity.

A. Powers; Duties Specified. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. The Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

B. No Responsibility for Certain Matters. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrowers, any Lender or any person providing the Settlement Service to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of the Borrowers or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall Administrative Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of the Letters of Credit or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the Letter of Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

C. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under subsection 10.6) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), the Administrative

116

Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, including any Settlement Confirmation or other communication issued by any Settlement Service, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under subsection 10.6).

D. Administrative Agent Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Borrowers or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrowers for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

E. Administrative Agent Determinations. To the extent the Administrative Agent is entitled or required to make any determinations under the Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make such determinations upon the advice of Requisite Lenders.

F. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this subsection 9.2 and of subsection 9.4 shall apply to any Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 9.2 and of Section 9.4 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Loan Parties and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and not to any Loan Party, Lender or any other Person and no Loan Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.

117

9.3 Representations and Warranties; No Responsibility for Appraisal of Credit Worthiness.

Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

9.4 Right to Indemnity.

Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, to the extent that Administrative Agent shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrowers, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

9.5 Successor Administrative Agent.

Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days' prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Borrowers, and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and signed by Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days' notice to the Borrowers, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent (provided that such successor is or simultaneously therewith becomes a Lender). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.6 Collateral Documents and Subsidiary Guaranty.

Each Lender hereby further authorizes the Intercreditor Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to enter into each Collateral Document and Subsidiary Guaranty as secured party or beneficiary (as applicable), and each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document and Subsidiary Guaranty; provided that the Administrative Agent and the Intercreditor Agent shall not (i) enter into or consent to any material amendment, modification, termination or

118

waiver of any provision contained in any Collateral Document or Subsidiary Guaranty, or (ii) release any Collateral (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Document), in each case without the prior consent of Requisite Lenders (or, if required pursuant to subsection 10.6, all Lenders); provided further, however, that, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Intercreditor Agent may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) release any Subsidiary from the Subsidiary Guaranty to the extent the stock of such Restricted Subsidiary is sold in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or otherwise consented to by the Lenders in accordance with subsection 10.6 and (ii) release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement or in connection with a Non-Recourse Financing or any other Indebtedness secured by a Permitted Lien or to which the Lenders have otherwise consented in accordance with subsection 10.6. In connection with any disposition or release of any Collateral pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, at the Borrowers' request and expense, the Intercreditor Agent shall (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) execute and deliver to the Borrowers such documents (including UCC-3 termination statements) as the Borrowers' may reasonably request to evidence or effect such disposition or release. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers, the Intercreditor Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (X) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents and each Guaranty may be exercised solely by the Intercreditor Agent for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, and (Y) in the event of a foreclosure by the Intercreditor Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Intercreditor Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Intercreditor Agent, as agent for and representative of Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Intercreditor Agent at such sale.

9.7 Intercreditor Agreements and Disbursement Agreement.

Each Lender hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor agreements with any holders of any secured Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under subsection 7.1(xvi) or otherwise consented to by the Lenders in accordance with subsection 10.6, and each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Disbursement Agreement and each other such intercreditor agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not enter into or consent to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in the Disbursement Agreement or any such intercreditor agreement without the prior consent of Requisite Lenders (or, if such amendment, modification, termination or waiver would result in a change that under subsection 10.6 would require the consent of all Lenders, then the prior consent of all Lenders); provided that, the Administrative Agent may waive the conditions set forth in sections 3.5.1 (solely with respect to any Project Document other than the Cooperation Agreement), 3.5.2, 3.5.4 (other than as to any certification regarding the satisfaction of a condition precedent set forth in section 3.5 of the Disbursement Agreement the waiver of which requires consent of the Requisite Lenders), 3.5.5 (other than as to any certification regarding the satisfaction of a condition precedent set forth in section 3.5 of the Disbursement Agreement the waiver of which requires consent of the Requisite Lenders), 3.5.6, 3.5.8, 3.5.9, 3.5.10 or 3.5.13 of the Disbursement Agreement, in each case without obtaining the prior consent of Requisite Lenders, so long as (a) the waiver of such condition could not reasonably be expected, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, to have a materially adverse effect on the Lenders, and (b) substantially concurrently with the waiver of any such condition, the

119

Administrative Agent shall deliver a notice to each Lender advising of such waiver and setting forth the specific condition being waived.

Section 10. Miscellaneous.

10.1 Assignments and Participations in Loans.

A. General. Subject to subsection 10.1B, each Lender shall have the right at any time to (i) sell, assign or transfer to any Eligible Assignee, or (ii) sell participations to any Eligible Assignee or any other Person (and in the case of any other Person, with the approval of the Borrowers) in all or any part of its Commitments or any Loan or Loans made by it or its Letters of Credit or participations therein or any other interest herein or in any other Obligations owed to it; provided that no such sale, assignment, transfer or participation shall, without the consent of the Borrowers, require the Borrowers to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to qualify such sale, assignment, transfer or participation under the securities laws of any state; provided, further that no such sale, assignment or transfer described in clause (i) above shall be effective unless and until an Assignment Agreement or Settlement Confirmation effecting such sale, assignment or transfer shall

120

have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in subsection 10.1B(ii) and provided, further that no such sale, assignment, transfer or participation of any Letter of Credit or any participation therein may be made separately from a sale, assignment, transfer or participation of a corresponding interest in the Commitment and the Loans of the Lender effecting such sale, assignment, transfer or participation. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 10.1, no Lender shall, as between the Borrowers and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment or transfer of, or any granting of participations in, all or any part of its Commitments or the Loans, the Letters of Credit or participations therein, or the other Obligations owed to such Lender.

B. Assignments.

(i) Amounts and Terms of Assignments. Each Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or participation therein, or other Obligation may in whole or in part (a) be assigned, in any amount to another Lender, or to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or another Lender or an Approved Fund, or may be pledged by a Lender in support of its obligations to such pledgee (without releasing the pledging Lender from any of its obligations hereunder), or (b) be assigned in an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount (i) if contemporaneous assignments approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion aggregating not less than $1,000,000 are being made by one or more Eligible Assignees which are Affiliates or (ii) as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit and participations therein, and other obligations of the assigning Lender) to any Eligible Assignee, in each case, with the giving of notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent; provided that if any assignment permitted by this clause (b) relates to Revolving Loans, Revolving Loan Commitments, Term A Loans or Term A Loan Commitments prior to the Term A Loan Commitment Termination Date, or Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitments prior to the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date, the assignee shall represent that it has the financial resources to fulfill its commitments hereunder and such assignment is consented to by the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and at any time other than when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such assignee shall be acceptable to the Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. To the extent of any such assignment in accordance with either clause (a) or (b) above, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations with respect to its Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations therein, or other Obligations or the portion thereof so assigned. The assignor or assignee to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 in respect of assignments, and in each case such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii)(a); provided, however, in the event that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, determines that Term B Loans after the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date may be settled through a Settlement Service (defined below) pursuant to subsection 10.1C, only a written or electronic confirmation of such assignment issued by a Settlement Service (a "Settlement Confirmation") shall be delivered with respect to assignments settled through the Settlement Service. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recordation, from and after the Assignment Effective Date, (y) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (z) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination of this Agreement under subsection 10.10B) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment

121

Agreement or, if applicable, Settlement Confirmation covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided that, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if such Lender is the Issuing Lender with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit such Lender shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder). The Commitments hereunder shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any remaining Commitment of such assigning Lender and, if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of Notes hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon new Notes shall be issued to the assignee and to the assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of the assignee and the assigning Lender.

(ii) Acceptance by the Administrative Agent; Recordation in Register. Upon its receipt of (x) an Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, or (y) if applicable, a Settlement Confirmation representing that the assignee is an Eligible Assignee, together with the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection 10.1B(i) if applicable, and any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters that such assignee may be required to deliver to the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii)(a), the Administrative Agent shall, if Administrative Agent has consented to the assignment evidenced thereby (to the extent such consent is required pursuant to subsection 10.1B(i)), (a) accept such Assignment Agreement or, if applicable, Settlement Confirmation by executing a counterpart thereof as provided therein (which acceptance shall evidence any required consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignment), (b) record the information contained therein in the Register (on the same Business Day as it is received if received by 12:00 noon and on the following Business Day if received after such time) and (c) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement and, if applicable, Settlement Confirmation delivered to and accepted by it as provided in this subsection 10.1B(ii). The date of such execution of a counterpart or recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the "Assignment Effective Date."

C. Settlement Service Mechanics. The Administrative Agent has the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Term B Loans on or after the Term B Delayed Draw Loan Commitment Termination Date via an electronic settlement system acceptable to Administrative Agent as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by Administrative Agent (the "Settlement Service"). At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be consistent with the other provisions of this Section 10.1. Each assignor Lender and proposed assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection with effecting any transfer of Loans pursuant to the Settlement Service. Administrative Agent's and the Borrower's consent shall be deemed to have been granted to the extent required pursuant to Section 10.1B(i) with respect to any transfer effected through the Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of Term B Loans shall be effected by such manual execution until Administrative Agent notifies Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein. Assignments and assumptions of Revolving Loans, Revolving Loan Commitments, Term A Loans and Term A Loan Commitments shall only be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement at all times. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Assignment Agreement to the contrary and so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments in respect of the settlement of an

122

assignment of any Term B Loan during periods when assignments may be settled through a Settlement Service (but not any Revolving Loan, Revolving Loan Commitment, Term A Loan or Term A Loan Commitment) and with respect to all unpaid interest and commitment fees if any, which have accrued on such Term B Loan, whether such interest and commitment fees accrued before or after the applicable Assignment Effective Date, shall be made in the manner provided for by the Settlement Service. Any and all fees payable to the Settlement Service shall be paid by the assigning Lender and/or its assignee which becomes a Lender hereunder and the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility whatsoever for payment thereof.

D. Participations. The holder of any participation, other than an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly affecting (i) the extension of the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan allocated to such participation, (ii) a reduction of the principal amount of or the rate of interest payable on any Loan allocated to such participation, or (iii) releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral, and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder (including amounts payable to such Lender pursuant to subsections 2.6D and 2.7) shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation. The Borrowers and each Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that, solely for purposes of subsections 10.4 and 10.5, (a) any participation will give rise to a direct obligation of the Borrowers to the participant and (b) the participant shall be considered to be a "Lender".

E. Assignments to Federal Reserve Banks and Trustees. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this subsection 10.1, (i) any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed to such Lender, and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or (ii) upon notice to the Administrative Agent any Lender may pledge all or any portion of its Loans, Commitments, the other Obligations owed to such Lender, and its Notes, to its creditors or to its trustee in support of its obligations to such creditor or trustee; provided that (i) no Lender shall, as between the Borrowers and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge and (ii) in no event shall such Federal Reserve Bank or such creditor or trustee be considered to be a "Lender" or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

F. Information. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject to subsection 10.20.

G. Representations of Lenders. Each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof or succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, hereby represents and warrants as of the Closing Date, or as of the applicable Assignment Effective Date, or as of the date of the Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee described in clause (A) of the definition thereof; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of loans such as the Loans; and (iii) it will make its Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of such Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal or state securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this subsection 10.1, the disposition of such Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control). Each Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment Agreement or, if applicable, a Settlement Confirmation shall be deemed to agree that the representations and warranties of such Lender contained in Section 2(c) of such Assignment Agreement or, if applicable, Settlement Confirmation are incorporated herein by this reference.

123

H. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.1, the rights of the Lenders to make assignments of, and grant participations in, any or all of its Commitments or any Loan or Letter of Credit made or issued by it, or any interest therein, herein or in any other Obligations owed to any such Lender, shall be subject to the approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities, to the extent required by the Nevada Gaming Laws.

10.3 Indemnity.

In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrowers agree to defend (subject to the Borrowers' selection of counsel with the consent of the Indemnitee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld), indemnify, pay and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Documentation Agents, the Arranger and Lenders, and the officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Documentation Agents, the Arranger and Lenders (collectively called the "Indemnitees"), from and against any and all

124

Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that the Borrowers shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this subsection 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the Borrowers shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

10.4 Set-Off; Security Interest in Deposit Accounts.

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrowers at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers to that Lender under this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and participations therein and the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and participations therein or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) that Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 8 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured. The Borrowers hereby further grant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a security interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent or such Lender as security for the Obligations.

125

10.5 Ratable Sharing.

The Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), by realization upon security, through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker's Lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to that Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "Aggregate Amounts Due" to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrowers or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrowers expressly consent to the foregoing arrangement and agree that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's Lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrowers to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

10.6 Amendments and Waivers.

A. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the Notes or other Loan Documents, and no consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders (or the Syndication Agent or the Administrative Agent only if this Agreement or such Loan Document expressly so provides); provided that no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall, unless approved in writing and signed by the Borrowers and all the Lenders, do any of the following: reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees hereunder (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any of the Loans pursuant to subsection 2.2E); unless expressly permitted by any Loan Document, permit any Borrower to assign or delegate any of its rights or Obligations under the Loan Documents; change in any manner the definition of "Pro Rata Share" or the definition of "Requisite Lenders" (it being understood that, with the consent of Requisite Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in "Pro Rata Share" and "Requisite Lenders" on substantially the same terms as the Term Loan Commitments and the Term Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitments and the Revolving Loans); change in any manner any provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all Lenders; postpone any date fixed for the payment in respect of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees hereunder; release any Lien granted in favor of the Administrative Agent with respect to 25% or more in aggregate fair market value of the Collateral other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (it being understood that the granting of additional Liens on Collateral is not a release of a Lien on such Collateral); release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty, other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; change in any manner the provisions contained in subsections 9.1, 10.5 or 10.6; provided, further that (i) any such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent which increases the amount of the Commitment for any Lender shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing signed by or on behalf of

126

such Lender and (ii) any release of Liens on Collateral granted to the Administrative Agent with respect to less than 25% in aggregate fair market value of the Collateral shall only require the consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

B. In addition, (i) any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the provisions contained in Section 4 shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing signed by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders, (ii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which is the holder of that Note except that to the extent such amendment, modification, termination or waiver would not otherwise require the consent of all Lenders, only the holder of such Note or Notes up to the amount constituting Requisite Lenders shall be required hereunder and (iii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Section 9 or of any other provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Administrative Agent.

C. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of that Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this subsection 10.6 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by the Borrowers, on the Borrowers.

D. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Lender does not agree to any amendment hereunder requiring the consent of all Lenders and consented to by Lenders having or holding at least a majority of the sum of the aggregate Loans and unused Commitment of all Lenders, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in subsection 10.1, including as a condition precedent to such assignment, (i) Administrative Agent's consent to the assignee unless not otherwise required by subsection 10.1 and (ii) payment by the Borrowers of the registration fee set forth in subsection 10.1B(i), if applicable), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received irrevocable payment in full in cash of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, and accrued fees and all other Obligations and other amounts payable to it hereunder (including amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.6D) from the assignee or the Borrowers and (ii) such assignment (together with any other assignments pursuant to this Section 10.6D or otherwise) will result in such amendment being approved.

10.7 Certain Matters Affecting Lenders.

(a) If (i) any Nevada Gaming Authority shall determine that any Lender does not meet suitability standards prescribed under the Nevada Gaming Regulations or (ii) any other gaming authority with jurisdiction over the gaming business of the Borrowers shall determine that any Lender does not meet its suitability standards (in any such case, a "Former Lender"), the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers shall have the right (but not the duty) to designate bank(s) or other financial institution(s) (in each case, a "Substitute Lender") which may be any Lender or Lenders that agree to become a Substitute Lender and to assume the rights and obligations of the Former Lender, subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence that such Substitute Lender is an Eligible Assignee. The Substitute Lender shall assume the rights and obligations of the Former Lender under this Agreement. The Borrowers shall bear the costs and expenses of any Lender required by any Nevada Gaming Authority, or any other gaming authority with jurisdiction over the gaming business of the Borrowers, to file an application for a finding of suitability in connection with the investigation of an application by

127

the Borrowers for a license to operate a gaming establishment, in connection with such application for a finding of suitability.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 10.7(a), if any Lender becomes a Former Lender, and if the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers fail to find a Substitute Lender pursuant to subsection 10.7(a) within any time period specified by the appropriate gaming authority for the withdrawal of a Former Lender (the "Withdrawal Period"), the Borrowers shall immediately prepay in full the outstanding principal amount of Loans made by such Former Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the earlier of (x) the date of payment or (y) the last day of any Withdrawal Period.

10.8 Independence of Covenants.

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.9 Notices.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally served or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon receipt of telefacsimile or telex, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided that notices to the Administrative Agent shall not be effective until received; provided further, any such notice or other communication shall at the request of the Administrative Agent be provided to any sub-agent appointed pursuant to subsection 9.2F hereto as designated by the Administrative Agent from time to time. For the purposes hereof, the address of each party hereto shall be (i) as to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Syndication Agent, set forth under such party's name on the signature pages hereof or such other address as shall be designated by such Person in a written notice delivered to the other parties hereto and (ii) as to each other Lender, such other address as set forth on Schedule 2.1 or as shall be designated by such party in a written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent.

10.10 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

A. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder.

B. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of the Borrowers set forth in subsections 2.6D, 2.7, 3.6, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in subsections 9.2C, 9.4, 10.5 and 10.20 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination of this Agreement.

10.11 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

128

10.12 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrowers or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrowers make a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.13 Severability.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.14 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders' Rights.

The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments or representations of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement, subject to the second sentence of subsection 9.6 and it shall not be necessary for any Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.15 Headings.

Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.16 Applicable Law.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

10.17 Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders (it being understood that Lenders' rights of assignment are subject to subsection 10.1). Neither Borrowers' rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by the Borrowers without the prior written consent of all Lenders.

129

10.18 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process.

ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST BORROWERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS THEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWERS, FOR THEMSELVES AND IN CONNECTION WITH THEIR PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY

(I) ACCEPT GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS;

(II) WAIVE ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS;

(III) AGREE THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE BORROWERS AT THEIR ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUBSECTION 10.9;

(IV) AGREE THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (III) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER BORROWERS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT;

(V) AGREE THAT LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST BORROWERS IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; AND

(VI) AGREE THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSECTION 10.18 RELATING TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE SHALL BE BINDING AND ENFORCEABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1402 OR OTHERWISE.

10.19 Waiver of Jury Trial.

EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of this transaction, including contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims and all other common law and statutory claims. Each party hereto acknowledges that this waiver is a material inducement to enter into a business relationship, that each has already relied on this waiver in entering into this Agreement, and that each will continue to rely on this waiver in their related future dealings. Each party hereto further warrants and represents that it has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel and that it knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with legal counsel. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SUBSECTION 10.19 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO

130

THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

10.20 Confidentiality.

Each Lender shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement in accordance with such Lender's customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking or investment practices, it being understood and agreed by the Borrowers that in any event a Lender may make disclosures to Affiliates of such Lender or disclosures reasonably required by any bona fide assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided that such assignee, transferee or participant agrees to also be bound by this subsection 10.20), or disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify the Borrowers of any request by any Governmental Instrumentality or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information; and provided, further that in no event shall any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. For purposes of this paragraph, "non-public information" shall not include information that is not acquired from the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates (or Persons acting on behalf of or retained by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates), Persons retained by or acting on behalf of the Arranger, Agents and/or Lenders in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or Persons known by such Lender to be under an obligation of confidentiality to the Borrowers (it being understood that the Agents, Arranger, Lenders and their respective Affiliates shall be under an obligation of confidentiality).

10.21 Counterparts; Effectiveness.

This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto or in connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof.

10.22 USA Patriot Act.

Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Patriot Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.23 Electronic Execution of Assignments.

The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
