</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On August&nbsp;21, 2006, we and American Real Estate Finance Corp. as the Borrowers, and certain of
our subsidiaries, as Guarantors, entered into a credit agreement, dated as of August&nbsp;21, 2006, with
Bear Stearns Corporate Lending Inc., as Administrative Agent, and the several lenders from time to
time party thereto.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the credit agreement, we will be permitted to borrow up to $150.0&nbsp;million. The credit
facility provides for the possibility of increasing available borrowings to $200.0&nbsp;million. No
borrowings were made at the closing of the credit facility.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Obligations under the credit agreement are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets
of AREP Home Fashion Holdings LLC, American Casino &#038; Entertainment LLC, AREP New Jersey Land
Holdings LLC, AREP Oil &#038; Gas Holdings LLC and AREP Real Estate Holdings LLC, collectively, the AREH
Subsidiary Guarantors, each a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Real Estate Holdings Limited
Partnership, or AREH, of which we are the 99% limited partner. The credit agreement has a term of
four years and all amounts will be due and payable on August&nbsp;21, 2010. Advances under the credit
agreement may not exceed 20% of the Collateral Value, as defined in the credit agreement, and will
be in the form of either base rate loans or Eurodollar loans, each as defined in the credit
agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The credit agreement includes covenants that, among other things, restrict the creation of
certain liens and certain dispositions of property by the AREH Subsidiary Guarantors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Obligations under the credit agreement are immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of
certain events of default, as defined in the credit agreement, including: failure to pay any
principal or interest of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, as defined in the credit agreement,
when due and payable; a default by any Group Member, as defined in the credit agreement, of any
obligation contained in the credit agreement or any other Loan Document, as defined in the credit
agreement; the indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way
of a merger or consolidation) of all or substantially all of the assets of us or AREH to any person
other than a Related Party, as defined in the credit agreement; and certain events that result in
any person other than us or Related Parties becoming the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the
voting power of us.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The description set forth above is qualified in its entirety by the credit agreement and

borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Borrower at the Funding
Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in

lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this

protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate,
affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or
conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the
Group Members), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes
unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with
the Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it
deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any
and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the
Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any

occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from
a Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default
and stating that such notice is a &#147;notice of default&#148;. In the event that the Administrative Agent
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders.
The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders); <U>provided</U> that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act
by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Group Member or any
affiliate of a Group Member, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any
Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without
reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations,
property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Group Members and their
affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.
Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Group Members and their affiliates.

Group Members to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in

though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with
respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same

Administrative Agent upon 10&nbsp;days&#146; notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Administrative
Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then
the Majority Lenders shall appoint such other Lender as a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject
to approval by the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative
Agent, and the term &#147;Administrative Agent&#148; shall mean such successor agent effective upon such

reimbursement or contribution from any other Guarantor as set forth in this Section&nbsp;10.2) to any
security interest that may then be held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral granted to
it under any Loan Document. Such right of subrogation shall be enforceable solely against the
Guarantors, and not against the Lenders or the Agent, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any
other Lender or Agent shall have any duty whatsoever to warrant, ensure or protect any such right
of subrogation or to obtain, perfect, maintain, hold, enforce or retain any Collateral for any
purpose related to any such right of subrogation. If subrogation is demanded by any Guarantor, then
(after payment in full of the Obligations) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Guarantors
making such demand, or to a representative of such Guarantors or of the Guarantors generally, an
instrument satisfactory to the Administrative Agent transferring, on a quitclaim basis without any
recourse, representation, warranty or obligation whatsoever, whatever security interest the
Administrative Agent then may hold in whatever Collateral may then exist that was not previously released or disposed of by the
Administrative Agent.

insufficiency, unenforceability or uncollectibility of any such right shall not in any respect
diminish, affect or impair any such obligation or any other claim, interest, right or remedy at any

contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent, that the
Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence,

action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred
giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated
