Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. (b) The Term B-2 Advances. Each Term B-2 Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make advances (each a "TERM B-2 ADVANCE") to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the date that is twelve (12) months following the Effective Date (the "TERM B-2 AVAILABILITY TERMINATION DATE") in an amount for each such Advance not to exceed such Lender's Unused Term B-2 Commitment at such time.

Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(b) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Term B-2 Advances will be made no more frequently than once during any calendar quarter, except for Term B-2 Advance(s) made pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 2.01(b). If on the Term B-2 Availability Termination Date there remains any unused Term B-2 Commitments, then (i) if so directed by any Lender then holding an Unused Term B-2 Commitment (which direction may or may not be given by such Lender in its sole discretion) or (ii) upon request of the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.02 and provided that all conditions precedent to the obligations of the Lenders to the making of such requested Advance are satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make an Advance to the Borrower in the amount of each such Lender's Unused Term B-2 Commitment on the Term B-2 Availability Termination Date. Page 25 Section 2.02. Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 2.01(b) or in the case of the Term B-1 Borrowing on the Effective Date which shall require the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing (hereinafter defined) at any time on or before the Effective Date without the necessity of more advance notice as otherwise required in this Section 2.02(a), each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) in regard to a Borrowing in an aggregate amount less than or equal to $25,000,000, the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, and (y) in regard to a Borrowing in an aggregate amount in excess of $25,000,000, the twentieth (20th) Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Appropriate Lender prompt notice (but in any event by no later than 3:00 P.M. on the date it receives such notice from the Borrower) thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a "NOTICE OF BORROWING") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, and (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing. For avoidance of doubt, any Borrowing on the Effective Date in an amount equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the Term B-1 Commitments shall be deemed to be a Term B-1 Borrowing, and the amount of any Borrowing on the Effective Date in excess of the aggregate amount of the Term B-1 Commitment shall be deemed to be a Term B-2 Borrowing. No more than one Notice of Borrowing may be in effect at any time. Each Appropriate Lender shall, before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Effective Date, in the case of the Term B-1 Borrowing, or on the other date of such Borrowing, in the case of each Term B-2 Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitments under the applicable Facility of such Lender and the other Appropriate Lenders. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower's Account. (b) Reserved. (c) Reserved. (d) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Appropriate Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date, so long as such Lender shall have provided prompt notice and a detailed calculation thereof. (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from an Appropriate Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing under a Facility under which such Lender has a Commitment that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that Page 26 such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes. (f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. Section 2.03. Reserved. Section 2.04. Repayment of Term B Advances. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term B Lenders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term B Advances in quarterly installments payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on March 31, 2008, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the sum of (i) the original aggregate principal amount of all Term B-1 Advances made on the Effective Date plus (ii) the original aggregate principal amount of all Term B-2 Advances made prior to the date such quarterly installment is due (which amount shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.06); provided, however, that the final principal installment shall be repaid on the Term B Maturity Date and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Advances outstanding on such date. Section 2.05. Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.01(b), the Unused Term B-2 Commitment of each Term B-2 Lender shall be terminated in full on the Term B-2 Availability Termination Date. Section 2.06. Prepayments. (a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day's notice in the case of Base Rate Advances and three Business Days' notice in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount prepaid and together with the applicable Prepayment Fee; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (y) if any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance is made on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Advance, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c); provided, Page 27 however, that, in the case of any such notice of an optional prepayment made in connection with a proposed refinancing in full of the Facilities, the Borrower shall be permitted to revoke such notice in the event that such refinancing is not consummated subject to payment of all costs of the Lenders under Section 9.04(c) incurred by such Lenders as a result of such notice of prepayment. Each such prepayment of any Term B Advances shall be applied ratably to each of the Term B Facilities and to the remaining installments thereof on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.06(a), the Borrower agrees that, in connection with the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries as referred to in Section 2.06(b), it shall not be permitted to prepay the Advances by any amount which exceeds the amount elected to be received by the Lenders as a prepayment in accordance with Section 2.06(b). (b) Mandatory. (i) Subject to the Borrower's rights under clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 2.06 below, the Borrower shall, on the date of receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, offer to the Lenders to prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Advances or deposit into the Collateral Account an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. Each such prepayment accepted by the Lenders shall be applied ratably to each of the Term B Facilities on a pro rata basis. Each Lender shall have the right to reject any offered mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.06(b)(i) and, if a Lender does so reject an offered mandatory prepayment, the Borrower will offer to the Lenders that have agreed to accept the offered prepayment to prepay to such Lenders ratably the amount of such prepayment so rejected. Any amount of Net Cash Proceeds which all Lenders reject as a mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.06(b) may be retained and used by the Borrower subject to compliance with the other requirements of the Loan Documents. (ii) If either the Trump Plaza or the Trump Marina is sold as permitted by Section 5.02(e)(x), the Loan Party that has sold such property (the Trump Plaza or the Trump Marina, as applicable) may use the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale to acquire substitute collateral acceptable to the Required Lenders, which substitute collateral, in addition to satisfying all such other conditions as the Required Lenders may require, must be of like-kind with the property sold (unless the Required Lenders, acting in their sole discretion, expressly agree to accept substitute collateral that is not like-kind with that sold), must be subjected to a perfected, first priority Lien securing the Obligations in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and must be accompanied by all other agreements, documents and instruments (including, without limitation, policies of title insurance insuring the Collateral Agent's Lien) required by Section 5.01(j). In the event the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of the Trump Plaza or the Trump Marina as permitted herein are not immediately reinvested into substitute collateral acceptable to the Required Lenders, then such Loan Party that has sold such property must deposit such Net Cash Proceeds in a Collateral Account at a bank acceptable to the Agents, with such Collateral Account and all securities, property or other assets held or contained therein to be pledged to the Collateral Agent as additional Collateral. If substitute collateral acceptable to the Required Lenders is identified and is to be acquired by a Loan Party prior to the first anniversary of the date of the closing of the sale of the Trump Plaza or the Trump Marina, then the Net Cash Proceeds Page 28 from such sale, to the extent required to complete the purchase of the substitute collateral, will be released from the Collateral Account into which they were placed at the closing of the acquisition of the substitute collateral as if such Net Cash Proceeds were an Advance, so long as all applicable conditions to the Borrower's right to then receive an Advance were satisfied and provided the Loan Parties satisfy all applicable requirements of Section 5.01(j) relating to such substitute collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limitation of any of the rights or remedies the Lenders or either Agent, if, (A) at any time such Net Cash Proceeds or any portion thereof remain in the Collateral Account, either (1) a Default exists or (2) the Required Lenders reasonably determine that a Material Adverse Change has occurred, or (B) substitute collateral acceptable to the Required Lenders has not been identified and subjected to a perfected, first priority Lien as required in this Section 2.06(b)(ii) above within 365 days after the date of receipt of the proceeds of the sale of the Trump Plaza or the Trump Marina (as applicable), then the Required Lenders may instruct the Agents to (and if such instruction is given, the Agents are authorized to and will) apply such Net Cash Proceeds and all interest accrued thereon as an optional prepayment under Section 2.06(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a sale of either the Trump Marina or the Trump Plaza constitutes an Extraordinary Asset Sale, as such term is defined in the New Notes Indenture, then the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale must first be made available to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and each Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect to either (1) utilize all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay the Loans, together with payment of the applicable Prepayment Fee and accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount prepaid, or (2) decline to utilize all or any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds to prepay the Loans. In the event any of the Lenders elects to decline to utilize any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds offered to such Lender to prepay the portion of the Loans payable to such Lender, the Net Cash Proceeds not so used to prepay such portion of such Loans may be used by the Borrower for any application allowed under the New Notes Indenture. (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in subsection (b)(i) of this Section 2.06, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if, on any date on which a prepayment of Advances would otherwise be required pursuant to subsection (b)(i) of this Section 2.06, the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds or other amounts otherwise required by such subsection to be applied to prepay Advances on such date are less than or equal to $5,000,000, the Borrower may defer such prepayment until the date on which the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds or other amounts otherwise required by such subsections to be applied to prepay Advances exceeds $10,000,000, at which time the aggregate amount of all Net Cash Proceeds received and not applied to prepay Advances shall be required to be offered as a prepayment of Advances in accordance with Section 2.06(b)(i). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and upon demand from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Advances in the amount of all Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower and other amounts, as applicable, that are required to be applied to prepay Advances by this Section 2.06 (without giving effect to the first and second sentences of this subsection (b)(iii)) but which have not previously been so applied. (iv) All prepayments under this subsection (b) shall be made together with (A) accrued interest to the date of such Page 29 prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, (B) any Prepayment Fee due hereunder as a result of such prepayment and (c) any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c).

With respect to each Term B-2 Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance and each Eurodollar Rate Advance resulting from the Conversion of any Base Rate Advance, the Eurodollar Rate for the first Interest Period applicable thereto shall be the then existing Eurodollar Rate applicable to any Term B-1 Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance (or, if no such Term B-1 Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance is then outstanding, any Term B-2 Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance). All Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be subject to an Interest Period that ends on the same date, and each Eurodollar Rate Advance in existence shall have the same Interest Period, except that the Interest Period applicable to the Eurodollar Rate Advance for each initial Term B-2 Advance and applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Advance resulting from the Conversion of a Base Rate Advance may have a different commencement date. (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require that the Borrower pay interest ("DEFAULT INTEREST") on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender Party, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2.07(a), as applicable, and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2.07(a), as applicable, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender Party that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid, in the case of interest, on the Type of Advance on which such interest has accrued pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2.07(a), as applicable, and, in all other cases, on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (i) of Section 2.07(a); provided, however, that following the acceleration of the Advances, or the giving of notice by the Agent to accelerate the Advances, pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest Page 30 shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Administrative Agent. (c) Notice of Interest Rate. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or a notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Appropriate Lender of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above. Section 2.08. Fees. (a) Closing Fee. On the Effective Date and as a condition to the obligation of the Lenders to make any Term B Advance, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a closing fee equal to one percent (1%) of the sum of the maximum principal amount of the Term B-1 Facility and the maximum principal amount of the Term B-2 Facility (the "Closing Fee"). The Closing Fee is irrevocably and unconditionally earned by the Lenders upon the funding of the Term B-1 Advances notwithstanding whether any Term B-2 Advance is made. (b) Term B-2 Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term B-2 Lenders, a commitment fee, from the date hereof in the case of each such Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other such Lender until the Term B-2 Availability Termination Date, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Term B-2 Availability Termination Date, at the rate of one-half (1/2) of 1% per annum on the average daily unused portion of each Appropriate Lender's Unused Term B-2 Commitment of such Lender; provided, however, that any commitment fee accrued with respect to the Term B-2 Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no commitment fee shall accrue on the Term B-2 Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. (c) Administration Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an annual Administration Fee of $60,000.00 (the "ADMINISTRATION FEE"), which is payable in equal quarterly installments on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December. (d) Agents' Fees. The Borrower shall pay to each Agent for its own account such other fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and such Agent. Section 2.09. Conversion of Advances. (a) Optional. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.10, Convert all or any portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Page 31 Eurodollar Rate Advances, and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their Commitments under such Facility. Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, and (ii) the Advances to be Converted. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. (b) Mandatory. (i) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances. (ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, (x) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended. Section 2.10. Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request issued after the Effective Date from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.10, any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.12 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis or rate of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party and a certificate setting forth the calculation of such amount (with a copy of such demand and such certificate to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be responsible for costs under this Section 2.10(a) arising more than 180 days prior to receipt by the Borrower of the demand from the affected Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.10(a). A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If any Lender Party determines that (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request issued after the Effective Date from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of such type, then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation and a certificate setting forth the calculation of such amount (with a copy of such demand and such Page 32 certificate to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be responsible for costs under this Section 2.10(b) arising more than 180 days prior to receipt by the Borrower of the demand from the affected Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.10(b). A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances under any Facility, Lenders owed at least 51% of the then aggregate unpaid principal amount thereof shall notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance under such Facility will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance under each Facility under which such Lender has a Commitment will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. (e) In the event that any Lender Party demands payment of costs or additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.12 or asserts, pursuant to Section 2.10(d), that it is unlawful for such Lender Party to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or becomes a Defaulting Lender then (subject to such Lender Party's right to rescind such demand or assertion within ten days after the notice from the Borrower referred to below) the Borrower may, at its sole cost and expense, upon 20 days' prior written notice to such Lender Party and the Administrative Agent, elect to cause such Lender Party to assign its Advances and Commitments in full to one or more Persons selected by the Borrower so long as (i) each such Person satisfies the criteria of an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) such Lender Party receives payment in full in cash of the Page 33 outstanding principal amount of all Advances made by it and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable to such Lender Party as of the date of such assignment (including, without limitation, amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04) and (iii) each such Lender Party assignee agrees to accept such assignment and to assume all obligations of such Lender Party hereunder in accordance with Section 9.07. Section 2.11. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.15), not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. (b) The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender Party and each of its Affiliates, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party is not made when due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to charge from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any or all of the Borrower's accounts with such Lender Party or such Affiliate any amount so due. (c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment or other fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be Page 34 made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. (f) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lender Parties under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Agents and the Lender Parties in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Agents (solely in their respective capacities as Agents) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Agents on such date; (ii) second, to the payment of all of the indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Lenders under Sections 9.04 hereof, Section 22 of the Security Agreement and any similar section of any of the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Lenders on such date; (iii) third, to the payment of all of the amounts that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties under Sections 2.10 and 2.12 hereof on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts thereof owing to the Administrative Agent and Lender Parties on such date; (iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the fees that are due and payable to the Appropriate Lenders under Section 2.08(a) or 2.08(b) on such date, ratably based upon the respective undrawn aggregate Commitments of such Lenders under the Facilities on such date; (v) fifth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations of the Borrower under or in respect of the Loan Documents that is due and payable to the Agents and the Lender Parties under Section 2.07(b) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Agents and the Lender Parties on such date; Page 35 (vi) sixth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Advances that is due and payable to the Lender Parties under Section 2.07(a) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Lender Parties on such date; (vii) seventh, to the payment of the principal amount of all of the outstanding Advances that is due and payable to the Lender Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such principal owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties on such date; and (viii) eighth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are due and payable to the Agents and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Agents and the other Secured Parties on such date. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the Advances or the Facility to which, or the manner in which, such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such funds to each of the Lender Parties in accordance with such Lender Party's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Advances or other Obligations then owing to such Lender Party, and for application to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of maturity. Section 2.12. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender Party or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto imposed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any other jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof from or through which such payments are made, excluding, in the case of each Lender Party and each Agent, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income by the United States and taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender Party, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction of such Lender Party's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof and branch profits taxes imposed by the United States or similar tax imposed by the jurisdiction of such Lender Party's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the other Loan Documents being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender Party or any Agent, (i) the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Page 36 deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "OTHER TAXES"). (c) The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Lender Party and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section 2.12, imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.12, the terms "UNITED STATES" and "UNITED STATES PERSON" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. (e) Each Lender Party that is not a United States person shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Loan Party (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and such Loan Party with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN and/or Form W-8IMY, as applicable (in each case, certifying that it is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party) or W-8ECI, or in the case of a Lender Party that has certified in writing to the Administrative Agent that it is not (i) a "bank" as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (ii) a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of any Loan Party or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If the forms provided by a Lender Party at Page 37 the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.12 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. To the extent required by applicable law, each Lender Party that is a United States person shall, on the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, upon expiration or obsolescence of any form previously submitted under this Section 2.12(e), and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Loan Party (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and such Loan Party with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9 (or successor forms) establishing that such Lender Party is not subject to U.S. backup withholding tax. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8EC1 or the related certificate described above, that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to payments of additional amounts or indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.12 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such Taxes. (g) If a Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund from a taxing authority of Taxes as to which it has been indemnified or paid additional amounts by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.12, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.12 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out of pocket expenses of the Lender Party, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund), within 60 days after receipt of such refund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Loan Party shall be entitled to review the tax records or financial information of any Lender Party, (ii) no Lender Party shall have any obligation to pursue (and no Loan Party shall have any right to assert) any refund of Taxes Page 38 that may be paid by a Loan Party, and (iii) a Loan Party receiving any such refund from a Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.12(g) shall promptly pay over to the Lender Party any portion of such refund that subsequently is disallowed by the relevant taxing authority (plus any interest, penalties or other charges imposed by the relevant taxing authority). Section 2.13. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 9.07) (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender Party's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered; provided further that, so long as the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall not have been accelerated, any excess payment received by any Appropriate Lender shall be shared on a pro rata basis only with other Appropriate Lenders. The Borrower agrees that any Lender Party so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be. Section 2.14. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Term B Advances shall only be utilized solely to (i) refinance all amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) fund the construction of the New Tower, (iii) pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction and (iv) provide for the ongoing working capital and general corporate needs (including Capital Expenditures to the extent permitted by Section 5.02(o)) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, provided that $146,625,000 of the Term B Advances shall be restricted in use to, and the Borrower agrees to use such amount solely for, the construction of the New Tower or to refinance the outstanding principal of the Existing Debt previously advanced as "Term B Advances" under the Existing Credit Agreement that was previously used to finance the construction of the New Tower. The Borrower hereby certifies to the Lenders that the amounts currently outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement consist of $199,625,000 as a Credit Facility as described in Section 4.09(b)(l)(A) of the New Notes Indenture Page 39 (consisting of $53,000,000 of revolving loans and $146,625,000 of term loans) and $146,625,000 of term loan borrowings as described in Section 4.09(b)(l)(B) of the New Notes Indenture. Section 2.15. Defaulting Lenders. (a) In the event that, at any one time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall owe a Defaulted Advance to the Borrower, (iii) the Borrower shall receive a notice from any applicable Governmental Authority that any Lender is no longer qualified or suitable to make Advances to the Borrower under the applicable Gaming Laws (and such Lender is notified by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such disqualification), including because such Lender has been denied a license, qualification or finding of suitability or has failed to deliver information required under the applicable Gaming Laws and (iv) the Borrower shall be required to make any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, so long as no Default shall occur or be continuing at such time and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, set off and otherwise apply the Obligation of the Borrower to make such payment to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender to make such Defaulted Advance. In the event that, on any date, the Borrower shall so set off and otherwise apply its obligation to make any such payment against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender to make any such Defaulted Advance on or prior to such date, the amount so set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents an Advance by such Defaulting Lender made on the date of such setoff under the Facility pursuant to which such Defaulted Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01. Such Advance shall be considered, for all purposes of this Agreement, to comprise part of the Borrowing in connection with which such Defaulted Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01, even if the other Advances comprising such Borrowing shall be Eurodollar Rate Advances on the date such Advance is deemed to be made pursuant to this subsection (a). The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent at any time the Borrower exercises its right of set-off pursuant to this subsection (a) and shall set forth in such notice (A) the name of the Defaulting Lender and the Defaulted Advance required to be made by such Defaulting Lender and (B) the amount set off and otherwise applied in respect of such Defaulted Advance pursuant to this subsection (a). Any portion of such payment otherwise required to be made by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender which is paid by the Borrower, after giving effect to the amount set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower pursuant to this subsection (a), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as specified in subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 2.15. (b) In the event that, at any one time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall owe a Defaulted Amount to any Agent or any of the other Lender Parties and (iii) the Borrower shall make any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, on its behalf or on behalf of such other Agents or such other Lender Parties and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply at such time the amount so paid by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender to the payment of each such Defaulted Amount to the extent required to pay such Defaulted Amount. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall so apply any such amount to the payment of Page 40 any such Defaulted Amount on any date, the amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents payment, to such extent, of such Defaulted Amount on such date. Any such amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or distributed by the Administrative Agent to such other Agents or such other Lender Parties, ratably in accordance with the respective portions of such Defaulted Amounts payable at such time to the Administrative Agent, such other Agents and such other Lender Parties and, if the amount of such payment made by the Borrower shall at such time be insufficient to pay all Defaulted Amounts owing at such time to the Administrative Agent, such other Agents and such other Lender Parties, in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the Agents for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to them, in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to the Agents; (ii) second, to any other Lender Parties for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lender Parties, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lender Parties; and (iii) Any portion of such amount paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender remaining, after giving effect to the amount applied by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (b), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as specified in subsection (c) of this Section 2.15. (c) In the event that, at any one time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall not owe a Defaulted Advance or a Defaulted Amount and (iii) the Borrower, any Agent or any other Lender Party shall be required to pay or distribute any amount hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower or such Agent or such other Lender Party shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be held by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in escrow or the Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hold in escrow such amount otherwise held by it. Any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under this subsection (c) shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent in an account with a bank (the "ESCROW BANK") selected by the Administrative Agent, in the name and under the control of the Administrative Agent, but subject to the provisions of this subsection (c). The terms applicable to such account, including the rate of interest payable with respect to the credit balance of such account from time to time, shall be the Escrow Bank's standard terms applicable to escrow accounts maintained with it. Any interest credited to such account from time to time shall be held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under, and applied by the Administrative Agent from time to time in accordance with the provisions of, this subsection (c). The Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply all funds so held in escrow from time to time to the extent necessary to make any Advances required to be made by such Defaulting Lender and to pay any amount payable by such Defaulting Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party, as and when such Advances or amounts are required to be made or paid and, if the amount so held in escrow shall at any time be insufficient to make and pay all such Advances and amounts required to be made or paid at such time, in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the Agents for any amounts then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to them hereunder, in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to the Agents; Page 41 (ii) second, to any other Lender Parties for any amount then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to such other Lender Parties hereunder, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to such other Lender Parties; and (iii) third, to the Borrower for any Advance then required to be made by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to a Commitment of such Defaulting Lender. In the event that any Lender Party that is a Defaulting Lender shall, at any time, cease to be a Defaulting Lender, any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time with respect to such Lender Party shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Lender Party and applied by such Lender Party to the Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of such Obligations outstanding at such time. (d) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.15 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Advance and that any Agent or any Lender Party may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Amount. Section 2.16. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender Party shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. On the Effective Date or, in the case of any change after the Effective Date in the identity of any Lender or, as a result of any Assignment and Acceptance, in the principal amount of the Term B-1 Advance held by any Lender or the Term B-2 Commitment of any Lender, and promptly upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to each applicable Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Term B-1 Note in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A-1 hereto, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Term B-1 Advance held by such Lender and/or, as applicable, a Term B-2 Note in substantially in the form of EXHIBIT A-2 hereto, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Term B-2 Commitment of such Lender. All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder. (b) If requested by Required Lenders, the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender Party hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender Party's share thereof. (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and entries made in good faith by each Lender Party in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of Page 42 principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender Party and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII THE AGENTS Section 7.01. Authorization and Action. (a) Each Lender Party hereby appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto, including the execution and filing of documents in accordance with the regulatory requirements of any Gaming Authority and consistent with this Agreement. As to any matters not expressly provided for by Page 80 the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Advances), no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lender Parties and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. Each Agent agrees to give to each Lender Party prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. (b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender Party hereby appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender Party for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent (and any Supplemental Collateral Agents appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VII (including, without limitation, Section 7.05 as though any such Supplemental Collateral Agents were an "Agent" under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. (c) Any Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent may also from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a "SUPPLEMENTAL COLLATERAL AGENT") with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent. If any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Supplemental Collateral Agent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.01(c) in the absence of such Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Section 7.02. Agents' Reliance, Etc. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Loan Party), Page 81 independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender Party and shall not be responsible to any Lender Party for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of any Default under the Loan Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (d) shall not be responsible to any Lender Party for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram or telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. Section 7.03. BBN, BB and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments, the Advances made by it and any Notes issued to it, each of BBN and BB shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender Party and may exercise the same as though BB, was not an Agent; and the term "Lender Party" or "Lender Parties" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include BBN and BB in their individual capacities. BBN, BB and their affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if BBN and BB (and/or the Affiliates of either) were not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lender Parties. No Agent shall have any duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as such Agent. Section 7.04. Lender Party Credit Decision. Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Section 7.05. Indemnification. (a) Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party's ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED COSTS"); provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse each Page 82 Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender Party or any other Person. (b) Reserved. (c) For purposes of this Section 7.05, each Lender Party's respective ratable share of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Advances outstanding at such time and owing to such Lender Party and (ii) such Lender Party's Unused Term B-2 Commitments at such time. The failure of any Lender Party to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lender Parties to such Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender Party of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender Party shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender Party to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender Party's ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 7.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Section 7.06. Successor Agents. Any Agent may resign as to any or all of the Facilities at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lender Parties and the Borrower and may be removed as to all of the Facilities at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that any removal of the Administrative Agent will not be effective until it or its Affiliate has also been replaced as Collateral Agent and discharged from all of its obligations in respect thereof. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right (with the consent of the Borrower, so long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing) to appoint a successor Agent as to such of the Facilities as to which such Agent has resigned or been removed. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders (or, so long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, consented to by the Borrower), and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders' removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lender Parties, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent as to all of the Facilities and, in the case of a successor Collateral Agent, upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may reasonably request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, Page 83 discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent as to less than all of the Facilities and, in the case of a successor Collateral Agent, upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent as to such Facilities, other than with respect to funds transfers and other similar aspects of the administration of Borrowings under such Facilities, and payments by the Borrower in respect of such Facilities, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement as to such Facilities, other than as aforesaid. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Agent's resignation or removal under this Section 7.06 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (a) the retiring Agent's resignation or removal shall become effective, (b) the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (c) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Agent as to any of the Facilities shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent as to such Facilities under this Agreement. ARTICLE VIII GUARANTY Section 8.01. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the "GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS"), and agrees to pay any and all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by any Agent or any Lender Party in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Agent or any Lender Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party. (b) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor (that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower) hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor (that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower) hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the Lender Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Page 84 (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Lender Party under this Guaranty or any other guaranty, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Agents and the Lender Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents. Section 8.02. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Agent or any Lender Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or whether the Borrower or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any manner of application of Collateral or any other collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (f) any failure of any Agent or any Lender Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Agent or such Lender Party, as the case may be (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Agents and the Lender Parties to disclose such information); Page 85 (g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Guaranty, any Guaranty Supplement or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Agent or any Lender Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety, in its capacity as a guarantor or surety. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Agent or any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Section 8.03. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that any Agent or any Lender Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral. (b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Agent or any Lender Party that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Loan Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. (d) Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Collateral Agent may, without notice to or demand upon such Guarantor and without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, foreclose under any mortgage by nonjudicial sale, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the recovery by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties against such Guarantor of any deficiency after such nonjudicial sale and any defense or benefits that may be afforded by applicable law. (e) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Agent or any Lender Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Agent or such Secured Party, as the case may be. Page 86 (f) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 8.02 and this Section 8.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Section 8.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor's Obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Agent or any Lender Party against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Unmatured Surviving Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Unmatured Surviving Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and (b) the Termination Date, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to any Secured Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and (iii) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Agents and the Lender Parties will, at such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty. Section 8.05. Guaranty Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a guaranty supplement in substantially the form of EXHIBIT E hereto (each, a "GUARANTY SUPPLEMENT"), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an "ADDITIONAL GUARANTOR" and shall become and be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guaranty to a "Guarantor" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a "GUARANTOR" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and (b) each reference herein to " THIS GUARANTY," "HEREUNDER," "HEREOF" or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the "GUARANTY," "THEREUNDER," "THEREOF" or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, shall mean and be a reference to this Guaranty as supplemented by such Guaranty Supplement. Section 8.06. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the "SUBORDINATED OBLIGATIONS") to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 8.06: Page 87 (a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Guarantor may receive payments from any other Loan Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, however, unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations. (b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Agents and the Lender Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding ("POST-PETITION INTEREST")) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of, or with the consent of, the Required Lenders, so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Agents and the Lender Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. (d) Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent acting at the direction of, or with the consent of, the Required Lenders, is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest). Section 8.07. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Unmatured Surviving Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and (ii) the Termination Date, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agents and the Lender Parties and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.07. No Guarantor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Secured Parties; provided that any Guarantor may assign its rights to the applicable Loan Party in a transaction permitted pursuant to Section 5.02(d).

Delivery by telecopier of an executed counterpart of a signature page to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes or of any Exhibit hereto to be executed and delivered hereunder shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof. As agreed to among the Borrower, including as set forth in subsection (b) below, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender Parties from time to time, notices and other communications may also be delivered by e-mail to the e-mail address of a representative of the applicable Person provided from time to time by such Person. Page 90 (b) The Borrower hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding (i) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09, (ii) any notice of any prepayment of the Advances pursuant to Section 2.06, (iii) any notice of a Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (iv) any certificate, agreement or other document required to be delivered to satisfy any condition set forth in Article III of this Agreement (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as "Communications"), by delivering the Communications by e-mail to an e-mail address specified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower.

(d) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents.

Page 91 Section 9.03. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender Party or any Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Note or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Section 9.04. Costs and Expenses. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand (i) all reasonable costs and expenses of each Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, or any consent or waiver under, the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, (A) all reasonable due diligence, collateral review, syndication, transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, audit, insurance, title insurance, survey, environmental, inspection, due diligence, consultant, search, filing and recording fees and expenses and (B) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for each Agent with respect thereto, with respect to advising such Agent as to its rights and responsibilities, or the perfection, protection or preservation of rights or interests, under the Loan Documents, with respect to negotiations with any Loan Party or with other creditors of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of any Default or any events or circumstances that may give rise to a Default and with respect to presenting claims in or otherwise participating in or monitoring any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding involving creditors' rights generally and any proceeding ancillary thereto) and (ii) all reasonable costs and expenses of each Agent and each Lender Party in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents, whether in any action, suit or litigation, or any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (A) for the Administrative Agent and (B) counsel for each Lender Party with respect thereto). (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Agent, each Lender Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, agents and advisors (each, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, the Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or any Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the Transaction is consummated. Page 92 (c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.09(b)(i) or 2.10(d), acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(e), Section 9.10 or Section 9.15(b), or if the Borrower fails to make any payment or prepayment of an Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to Section 2.04, 2.06 or 6.01 or otherwise, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party any amounts required to compensate such Lender Party for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender Party to fund or maintain such Advance. (d) If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, in its sole discretion. (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.10 and 2.12 and this Section 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents. Section 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Agent and each Lender Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Agent and each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Lender Party and their respective Affiliates may have. Section 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and each Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender Party that such Initial Lender Party has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have Page 93 the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender Party.

(a) Each Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any or all Facilities, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of effectiveness of such assignment, the Borrower) under each Facility for which a Commitment is being assigned, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(e) or Section 9.15(b) shall be arranged by the Borrower after consultation with the Administrative Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (v) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(e) or Section 9.15(b) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement and (vi) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes (if any) subject to such assignment. (b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) 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 and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Page 94 Acceptance, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose (but only for this purpose) as the agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender Party from time to time (the "REGISTER"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lender Parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of EXHIBIT C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes (if any) a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender that had a Note or Notes prior to such assignment has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A-1 or EXHIBIT A-2 hereto, as the case may be. Page 95 (f) Reserved. (g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest (other than default interest) on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release a substantial portion of the value of the Collateral or the value of the Guaranties and (vi) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of Section 2.12 to the same extent as if they were a Lender Party but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender Party that sold the participation to such participant and only if such participant agrees to comply with Section 2.12(e) and 2.12(g) as though it were a Lender Party. (h) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender Party. (i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time (and without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower) create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank, in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any Federal Home Loan Bank. (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided, however, that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 9.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the Page 96 rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender Party (a "GRANTING LENDER") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an "SPC") the option to provide all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender Party would be liable, (ii) no SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 2.12 (or any other increased costs protection provision) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including, without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender Party of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior Debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Advance to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This subsection (k) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Advances are being funded by the SPC at the time of such amendment. (l) In connection with any of the transactions described above in this Section 9.07, the Loan Parties agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist each applicable Lender in its efforts to syndicate and assign interests in the Facilities and Advances and/or to sell participation interests in such Lender's interest in the Facilities and Advances. Such assistance by the Loan Parties and its affiliates shall include, without limitation, (i) using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit materially from the Loan Parties' existing lending relationships, (ii) direct contact between senior management and advisors of the Loan Parties and the proposed syndicate lenders, (iii) assistance in the preparation of a Confidential Information Memorandum and other marketing materials to be used in connection with any syndication and (iv) the hosting, with each applicable Lender, of one or more meetings, consulting with each applicable Lender with respect to the presentations to be made at such meetings, and making available appropriate officers and representatives of the Loan Parties to rehearse such presentations prior to such meetings, as requested by each applicable Lender. Section 9.08. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original Page 97 and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery by telecopier or email transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Section 9.09. Reserved. Section 9.10. Non-Consenting Lenders. If at any time, any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole cost and expense, on five Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 9.07 all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; provided, further, that such Non-Consenting Lender shall be entitled to receive the full outstanding principal amount of Advances so assigned, together with accrued interest and fees payable in respect of such Advances as of the date of such assignment. Section 9.11. Confidentiality. Neither any Agent nor any Lender Party shall disclose any Confidential Information to any Person without the consent of the Borrower, other than (a) to such Agent's or such Lender Party's Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors and to actual or prospective Eligible Assignees and participants, and then only on a confidential basis, (b) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (c) as requested or required by any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner (including the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or quasi-regulatory authority) regulating such Lender Party, (d) to any rating agency when required by it; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender Party, (e) in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which such Agent or such Lender Party or any of its Affiliates may be a party or (f) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Section 9.12. Release of Collateral. Upon the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Loan Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the sale, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, of the Loan Party that owns such Collateral) in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents or sale of all of the assets of, or all of the Equity Interests in, a Subsidiary in a transaction permitted by Section 5.02(e), the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrower's expense, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item or such Subsidiary of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Section 9.13. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender Party and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender Party) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender Party or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Agents or any Lender Party in order to assist the Agents and the Lender Parties in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. Page 98 Section 9.14. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any Texas State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Dallas, Texas, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such Texas State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction. (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any Texas State or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Dallas, Texas. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action to enforce any Mortgage shall be brought in the State of New Jersey. Section 9.15. Application of Liquor Laws and Gaming Laws. (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to laws involving the sale or distribution of liquor (the "LIQUOR LAWS"). Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (i) it is subject to being called forward by the Governmental Authorities enforcing the Liquor Laws, in their discretion, for licensing or a finding of suitability or to file or provide other information, and (ii) all rights, remedies and powers in or under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including with respect to the Collateral (including the Pledged Equity) and the ownership and operation of Gaming Facilities, may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provisions of the Liquor Laws and only to the extent that required approvals (including prior approvals) are obtained from the requisite Governmental Authorities. (b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to Gaming Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that if the Borrower receives a notice from any applicable Gaming Authority that a Lender has been found disqualified to make Advances to the Borrower under applicable Gaming Laws (a "DISQUALIFICATION FINDING"), then the Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of the Disqualification Finding, either (i) replace such Lender with a Person that is both an Eligible Assignee and an Eligible Transferee or (ii) prepay the Advances (and other Obligations as set forth in the proviso below) held by or owed to or for the benefit of such disqualified Lender, even where a Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, however, that, concurrently Page 99 with such replacement or prepayment (as applicable), all Advances, accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other Obligations then payable or owed to or for the benefit of such disqualified Lender shall be paid in full. Any such payment under this Section 9.15(b) shall be deemed to be a prepayment as set forth in Section 2.06(a). Notice to such disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be given by the Borrower within three (3) days of receipt of notice of such Disqualification Finding from the applicable Gaming Authority, and shall be accompanied by evidence demonstrating that such transfer or prepayment is required pursuant to Gaming Laws. Upon receipt of a notice in accordance with the foregoing, the disqualified Lender shall cooperate with the Borrower in effectuating the required transfer or prepayment within the time period set forth in such notice. Commencing on the date the Gaming Authority serves notice of its Disqualification Finding upon the Borrower, and to the extent (but only to the extent) required by applicable Gaming Laws, (A) such Lender shall no longer receive any interest payment on the Advances, (B) such Lender shall no longer exercise, directly or indirectly, any right conferred by the Advances, and (C) such Lender shall not receive any remuneration in any form from the Borrower for services or otherwise in respect of the Advances. (c) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to cooperate with all Gaming Authorities (or be subject to the provisions of Section 2.15) in connection with the provision of such documents or other information as may be requested by such Gaming Authorities relating to the Loan Parties or to the Loan Documents. (d) If during the existence of an Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents it shall become necessary, or in the opinion of the Required Lenders advisable, for an agent, supervisor, receiver or other representative of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to become licensed under any Gaming Law as a condition to receiving the benefit of any Collateral encumbered by the Collateral Documents or other Loan Documents or to otherwise enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents, the Borrower hereby agrees to grant such license or licenses and to execute such further documents as may be required in connection with the evidencing of such consent. Section 9.16. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New Jersey. Section 9.17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDER PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE ADVANCES OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY AGENT OR ANY LENDER PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. Section 9.18. Limitation of Liability. Each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any Lender Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, the Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Page 100 Section 9.19. Collateral Documents and Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender, for the benefit of the Agents, consents and agrees to the terms of the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms and the terms of this Agreement, and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and remedies thereunder in accordance therewith, subject in each case to any discretion that may be provided to the Collateral Agent by any of the terms of any such Collateral Document or Intercreditor Agreement or this Agreement.
