Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have advised Banco Santander, S.A., New York Branch (“Santander” and the “Commitment Party,” “we” or “us”) that Argento, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Borrower” or “you”), intends to enter into the transactions as described in the Transaction Summary attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Transaction Summary”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Exhibits attached hereto (such Exhibits, together with this letter, this “Commitment Letter”).

You have advised us that, in order to fund the total amount of cash required to effect the Acquisition and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith, you will (a) seek to obtain debt financing in an aggregate amount of $135.0 million, which may take the form of (i) borrowings of term loans under a new syndicated term loan B facility, (ii) borrowings of loans under a new pro rata credit facility, (iii) borrowings under a new direct lending credit facility, and/or (iv) borrowings under certain other debt financings (clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, together, the “Permanent Financing”), and/or (b) if, and only to the extent that, you do not receive any or all of the Permanent Financing on or prior to the Closing Date (as defined herein), borrowings of up to $135.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured loans under a new senior secured bridge facility (minus the aggregate initial principal amount of the Permanent Financing received by the Borrower) (the “Bridge Facility”) described in the Summary of Principal Terms attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Facility Term Sheet”), subject solely to the conditions set forth in the Summary of Conditions Precedent attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Conditions Exhibit” and, together with the Facility Term Sheet, the “Term Sheets”).

1. Commitments, Titles and Roles.

In connection with the foregoing, Santander is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 100.00% of the initial principal amount of the Bridge Facility, upon the terms and subject solely to the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter (in such capacity, the “Initial Lender”). All references to “Dollars” or “$” in this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter are references to United States dollars.

You hereby appoint (a) Santander (in such capacities, the “Lead Arranger”) to act, and Santander hereby agrees to act, as lead bookrunner and a lead arranger for each of the Bridge Facility and (b) Santander (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) to act, and Santander hereby agrees to act, as the sole and exclusive administrative agent for the Bridge Facility, in each case, upon the terms and subject solely to the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter.

In such capacities, the Lead Arranger and the Administrative Agent will perform the duties and exercise the authority customarily performed and exercised by it in such roles. You further agree that no other additional Lead Arranger and/or Commitment Party will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation will be paid in respect of the Bridge Facility unless you and we shall so agree; provided that (i) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall mutually agree on a third party to act as the collateral agent with respect to the Bridge Facility Documentation, and such collateral agent shall be awarded customary compensation to be mutually agreed in connection with such role, and (ii) it is understood and agreed by each of the parties hereto that Santander shall be granted “left lead” placement in any marketing materials with respect to the Bridge Facility and each such other additional arrangers that may be appointed shall be listed in an order determined by you in consultation with Santander.

2. Syndication.

The Lead Arranger reserves the right, prior to or after the execution of definitive documentation for the Bridge Facility (the “Bridge Facility Documentation”), to syndicate all or a portion of the commitments of the Initial Lender hereunder to a group of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders (together with the Initial Lender, the “Lenders”) identified by the Lead Arranger in consultation with the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (it being understood and agreed that the Lead Arranger will not syndicate to any (a) banks, financial institutions, other institutions or persons identified in writing to the Lead Arranger by the Borrower on or prior to the date hereof as a disqualified lender, (b) competitors or suppliers of the Borrower, the Target and their respective subsidiaries, in each case, identified in writing to the Lead Arranger by the Borrower from time to time (a “Competitor”), or (c) any affiliate of such person identified pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) that is clearly identifiable solely on the basis of the similarity of its name or identified in writing to the Lead Arranger by the Borrower from time to time (other than any bona fide debt fund, investment vehicle, regulated bank entity or unregulated lending entity that is (x) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans or similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business and (y) managed, sponsored or advised by any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with a Competitor or affiliate thereof, as applicable, but only to the extent that no personnel involved with the investment in such Competitor or affiliate thereof, as applicable makes (or has the right to make or participate with others in making) investment decisions on behalf of such debt fund, investment vehicle, regulated bank entity or unregulated lending entity) (clauses (a), (b) and (c), collectively, the “Disqualified Lenders”); provided, that (i) any subsequent designation of a Disqualified Lender will not become effective until three business days after such designation is provided, it being understood that no such subsequent designation shall apply to any entity that is currently a lender or party to a pending trade and (ii) the foregoing shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any parties that have previously been allocated a portion of the Bridge Facility and/or the Permanent Financing or acquired an assignment or participation interest in the Bridge Facility and/or the Permanent Financing to the extent such party was not a Disqualified Lender at the time of the applicable allocation, assignment or participation, as the case may be)); provided, however, that, unless specifically agreed to otherwise by you in writing, (a) the Initial Lender shall not be released from the portion of its commitment hereunder assigned by the Initial Lender to one or more prospective Lenders to the extent that any such prospective Lenders fails to fund such portion of the commitment assigned to it on the Closing Date notwithstanding the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to such funding set forth in this Commitment Letter and (b) the Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments with respect to its commitment hereunder until the Closing Date has occurred, except as expressly set forth herein. The Lead Arranger intends to

2

commence syndication efforts promptly upon the execution of this Commitment Letter (such date of execution, the “Signing Date”), and you agree to actively assist the Lead Arranger in such syndication efforts. Such assistance shall include, until the date that is 45 days after the Closing Date (the “Syndication Date”), (a) direct contact between senior management, representatives and advisors of you and the proposed Lenders (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and in all instances, not in contravention of the Transaction Agreement, your use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause such contact between the senior management of the Target, on the one hand, and the proposed Lenders, on the other hand), in all cases at times to be mutually agreed upon, which contact will, unless otherwise agreed by you, be established via telephone, video or other electronic conferences, (b) if requested by the Lead Arranger, assistance by you in the preparation of a confidential information memorandum for the Bridge Facility in form and substance customary for transactions of this type and other customary marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication by providing information and other customary materials reasonably requested in connection with such confidential information memorandum or other customary marketing materials (including, to the extent practical and appropriate and in all instances not in contravention of the Transaction Agreement, your use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to assist), (c) your use of commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Lead Arranger in preparation of a written business plan of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries satisfactory to you and (d) if requested by the Lead Arranger, the hosting, with the Lead Arranger, of one telephone, video or other electronic conference, of prospective Lenders at a time to be mutually agreed upon. Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Bridge Facility Documentation to the contrary, none of the launch or completion of any such syndication or a successful syndication or your compliance with this paragraph is a condition to the Initial Lender’s commitments hereunder or the availability of the Bridge Facility as of the Closing Date in the event that the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter are satisfied.

You agree, at the reasonable request of the Lead Arranger, to assist in the preparation of a version of the confidential information memorandum and other marketing materials and presentations to be used in connection with the syndication of the Bridge Facility, consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is either (a) publicly available or (b) not material with respect to the Borrower or its subsidiaries, the Target or its subsidiaries, or any of their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (all such information and documentation being “Public Lender Information”). “Private Lender Information” will include for all purposes (i) any information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information and (ii) any models, assumptions and projections that are not Public Lender Information and that are provided to the Lead Arranger by you. To the extent reasonably requested by the Lead Arranger, you agree to provide customary authorization letters to the Lead Arranger authorizing the distribution of the marketing materials and presentations to prospective Lenders, containing a representation to the Lead Arranger that the Public Lender Information does not include any Private Lender Information and a customary representation with respect to the material accuracy and material correctness of the information in such marketing materials (it being understood and agreed that such marketing materials and presentations shall include customary language exculpating you, the Commitment Party, and your and its respective affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use of the contents of the materials contained in such marketing materials and presentations by the recipients thereof). You further agree that each document to be disseminated by the Lead Arranger to the Lenders in connection with the syndication of the Bridge Facility will, upon the reasonable request of the Lead Arranger, be identified by you as either (A) containing Private Lender Information or (B) containing solely Public Lender Information. You acknowledge that the following documents contain solely Public Lender Information (unless you notify us promptly that any such document contains Private Lender Information): (x) drafts and final versions of the Bridge Facility Documentation; (y) administrative materials prepared by the Lead Arranger for the Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation and closing memoranda in each case approved by you prior to their distribution, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or conditioned); and (z) any marketing term sheet, notification of any change thereto or any other notification of changes in the terms of the Bridge Facility.

3

The Lead Arranger will, in consultation with you and subject to your appointment rights set forth in the third paragraph of Section 1 and your consent rights set forth in this Section 2 (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), manage all aspects of any syndication, including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be approached and when they will be approached, when their commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. To assist the Lead Arranger in their syndication efforts, you agree promptly to prepare and provide (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Transaction Agreement, to use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to provide) to the Lead Arranger all information with respect to the Borrower and its subsidiaries, the Target, the Transactions (as defined herein) and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including customary financial information and Projections (as defined below) as the Lead Arranger may reasonably request; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, subject to the limitations and terms set forth therein, the only financial statements the delivery of which shall be a condition to the commitments hereunder shall be those described in paragraph 2 of the Conditions Exhibit.

You agree that, from the date hereof and until the Syndication Date, you will not have syndicated or issued, attempted to syndicate or issue, announced or authorized the announcement of the syndication or issuance of, or engaged in discussions concerning the syndication or issuance of, any debt securities or credit facilities of the Borrower, the Target or any of their respective subsidiaries (other than (i) the Bridge Facility, (ii) the Permanent Financing, (iii) prior to the consummation of the Refinancing, borrowings or incremental facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement (as defined herein), any increase to the letter of credit facility or revolving credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement or any repricing or maturity extensions of the letter of credit facilities or term loan facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement, (iv) purchase money indebtedness permitted under the Existing Credit Agreement that are also permitted to remain outstanding under the Transaction Agreement, (v) indebtedness with respect to capital leases permitted under the Existing Credit Agreement that are also permitted to remain outstanding under the Transaction Agreement, and (vi) any borrowings under working capital, local facilities or overdraft facilities permitted under the Existing Credit Agreement that are also permitted to remain outstanding under the Transaction Agreement), in each case, that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely impair the primary syndication of the Bridge Facility, without the consent of the Lead Arranger (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); it being understood that the foregoing shall not limit the ability of the Target to incur debt permitted under the Transaction Agreement.

3. Information.

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written information other than the projections and other forward-looking information (any such information, “Projections”) and information of a general economic or industry nature, furnished to us (the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to the Commitment Party by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives is or will be, when furnished and taken as a whole, complete and correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time in accordance with the immediately succeeding sentence) and (b) the Projections, if any, that have been or will be made available to the Commitment Party by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time made and at the time such Projections are made available to the Commitment Party, it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods of the Projections may vary materially from the Projections. You agree

4

that if at any time prior to the Closing Date (and, if reasonably requested by the Lead Arranger, for a period thereafter not beyond the Syndication Date) any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will (and will use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to, subject to the terms of the Transaction Agreement) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects (or, prior to the Closing Date with respect to Information provided by or concerning the Target and its subsidiaries and its and their respective businesses, to your knowledge) as of the Closing Date (and as of such later date not beyond the Syndication Date), and such supplementation shall cure any breach of such representation. In arranging and syndicating the Bridge Facility, the Lead Arranger (i) will be entitled to use and rely primarily on the Information and the Projections without any responsibility for independent verification thereof and (ii) assume no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Information or the Projections. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that the Initial Lender’s commitment hereunder is not subject to or conditioned upon the accuracy of the representations set forth in this paragraph, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter, the Term Sheets, the Fee Letter or the Bridge Facility Documentation, the accuracy of such representations shall not constitute a condition to the funding of the Bridge Facility.

4. Compensation.

As consideration for the Initial Lender’s commitment hereunder and their agreement to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay to the Commitment Party the fees set forth in this Commitment Letter and in the fee letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the Bridge Facility (the “Fee Letter”). Once paid, such fees shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

5. Limited Conditionality Provision.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Bridge Facility Documentation or any other letter agreement entered into with, or other undertaking by, the Commitment Party with respect to the Bridge Facility, the funding of the Bridge Facility to occur on the Closing Date shall be subject only to the prior satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in the Conditions Exhibit (collectively, the “Closing Conditions”).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Bridge Facility Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions, (a) the only representations, the making and accuracy of which shall be a condition to availability of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date, shall be (i) such of the representations made by or with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries in the Transaction Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders (in their capacities as such), but only to the extent that you or any of your affiliates have the right to terminate your or your affiliates’ obligations under the Transaction Agreement or decline to consummate the Transactions pursuant to the Transaction Agreement (in each case in accordance with the terms thereof) as a result of a breach of such representations in the Transaction Agreement (to such extent, the “Transaction Agreement Representations”) and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of the Bridge Facility Documentation shall be in a form such that they do not impair availability or funding of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date if the Closing Conditions expressly set forth herein are satisfied (or waived by the Initial Lender); it being understood that, to the extent any lien on the collateral securing the Bridge Facility (other than to the extent that a lien on such collateral may be perfected by (i) filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of the Secretary of State (or equivalent office in the relevant states) of the applicable jurisdiction of organization (or such other applicable jurisdiction as determined by Section 9-307 of the Uniform Commercial Code), (ii) the filing of short form security agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the

5

United States Copyright Office, or (iii) the delivery of certificated securities representing the equity interests in the Borrower and in each material wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiary of the Borrower required to be pledged pursuant to the Term Sheets as of the Closing Date and, if delivered by the Target prior to the Closing Date, the Target and each of the Target’s material wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries required to be pledged pursuant to the Term Sheets as of the Closing Date, in each case, together with transfer powers executed in blank and only to the extent required by the Term Sheets, in each case, other than equity interests in any of the entities for which prior approval of liens under applicable gaming law is required but has not been obtained) does not attach or become perfected on the Closing Date after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, such attachment or perfection will not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Bridge Facility (so long as, in the case of certificated equity interests in the Target and each of its material wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries required to be pledged pursuant to the Term Sheets as of the Closing Date, you have used commercially reasonable efforts to cause such delivery to the extent required by the Term Sheets, subject to receipt of any approvals under gaming law), but instead will be required within 90 days after the Closing Date (subject to extensions to be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties of Borrower and the Guarantors set forth in the Bridge Facility Documentation relating to (i) due organization, power and authority and due authorization to enter into the Bridge Facility Documentation, (ii) the incurrence of the loans by the Borrower, the provision of the guarantees by the Guarantors and the granting of the security interests in the collateral to secure the Bridge Facility under the Bridge Facility Documentation, in each case, not conflicting with organizational documents of the Borrower and the Guarantors, (iii) execution, delivery and enforceability of the Bridge Facility Documentation, in each case, by, with respect to and against, as applicable, the Borrower and the Guarantors, related to entering into the Bridge Facility Documentation, the incurrence of the loans by the Borrower, the provision of the guarantees under the Bridge Facility Documentation and the granting of the security interests in the collateral to secure the Bridge Facility by the Guarantors under the Bridge Facility Documentation, (iv) solvency as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the Transactions of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries taken as a whole (solvency to be determined in a manner consistent with the manner in which solvency is determined pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Conditions Exhibit), (v) Federal Reserve margin regulations, (vi) use of proceeds not violating OFAC regulations, FCPA, anti-money laundering laws and certain other anti-corruption and sanctions laws or the Patriot Act (as defined below), (vii) the Beneficial Ownership Regulation (as defined below), (viii) the Investment Company Act, and (ix) the creation, validity, priority and perfection of the security interests granted in the intended collateral, subject to permitted liens as set forth in the Bridge Facility Documentation and the terms of this Section 5. This paragraph, and the provisions herein, shall be referred to as the “Conditions Limitation Provision”.

6. Indemnity; Expenses; Limitation on Liability.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Commitment Party and its affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, members and each of the foregoing’s respective successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses, joint or several, to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject to the extent arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Transactions, the Bridge Facility or any related transaction or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any such Indemnified Person is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its affiliates, creditors or equity holders), and to reimburse each such Indemnified Person promptly upon written demand (together with reasonably detailed backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request) for any reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket legal expenses of one firm of counsel for all Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole and, if necessary, a single gaming and local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single

6

special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) material to the interests of all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnified Person affected retains its own counsel and informs you, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Person and, if necessary, a single gaming and local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for such affected Indemnified Person; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by or resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person, or a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnified Person under this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter (in any case, other than with respect to Santander, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent), or except to the extent such dispute (i) is between Indemnified Persons (other than any dispute between an Indemnified Person in its capacity as an arranger or agent and another Indemnified Person as a Lender) and (ii) does not arise out of an act or omission by you or your affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Person or you or any of your or their respective affiliates shall be liable for any damages arising from the unauthorized use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems. Neither you nor any Indemnified Person will be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages in connection with its activities related to the Bridge Facility; provided that the parties acknowledge and agree that a claim for indemnity under the first sentence of this paragraph, to the extent covered thereby, is a claim of direct or actual damages.

Subject to any limitations set forth in the Fee Letter, you agree to reimburse the Commitment Party, upon presentation of a summary statement, for all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses, syndication expenses, travel expenses and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) a single counsel to the Commitment Party explicitly specified in the Term Sheets, (ii) one special gaming and local counsel to the Lead Arranger and the Administrative Agent, taken as a whole, in Nevada, and (iii) a single local counsel to the Commitment Party in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions), in each case, incurred in connection with the Bridge Facility and the preparation, negotiation and enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the Transactions and the Bridge Facility Documentation and any security arrangements in connection therewith, whether or not the Transactions are consummated.

7. Other Services.

The Borrower acknowledges that the Commitment Party is currently acting as a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement. The Borrower further acknowledges that the Borrower’s and its affiliates’ rights and obligations under any other agreement with the Commitment Party or any of its affiliates (including the Existing Credit Agreement) that currently or hereafter may exist are, and shall be, separate and distinct from the rights and obligations of the parties pursuant to this Commitment Letter, and none of such rights and obligations under such other agreements shall be affected by the Commitment Party’s performance or lack of performance of services hereunder. You acknowledge that the Commitment Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which you or any of your subsidiaries may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise.

You also acknowledge that neither the Commitment Party nor any of its affiliates has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained by it from other companies.

7

You further acknowledge that the Commitment Party is a full-service securities firm engaged, either directly or indirectly through its affiliates, in various activities, including securities trading, investment management, financing and brokerage activities and financial planning and benefits counseling for both companies and individuals. In the ordinary course of these activities, the Commitment Party or its affiliates may actively trade the debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) of the Borrower or other companies which may be the subject of the arrangements contemplated by this Commitment Letter for its own account and for the accounts of its customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities. The Commitment Party or its affiliates may also co-invest with, make direct investments in, and invest or co-invest client monies in or with funds or other investment vehicles managed by other parties, and such funds or other investment vehicles may trade or make investments in securities or other debt obligations of the Borrower or other companies which may be the subject of the arrangements contemplated by this Commitment Letter. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by the Commitment Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of such rights, in its sole discretion. In recognition of the foregoing, you agree that the Commitment Party and their affiliates are not required to restrict their activities in the ordinary course of business as a result of this engagement, and that the Commitment Party and its affiliates may undertake any business activity in the ordinary course of business without further consultation with or notification to you. The Commitment Party acknowledges that it is bound by confidentiality agreements set forth in Section 9 (Confidentiality).

In addition, please note that affiliates of Santander have been retained by the Borrower as financial advisors (in such capacity, the “Financial Advisor”) to the Borrower in connection with the Transactions (as defined in Exhibit A to this Commitment Letter). Without limiting the obligations of the Commitment Party under Section 9 (Confidentiality) and your rights in connection therewith, you agree to such retention, and further agree not to assert any claim you might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of the Financial Advisor, and, on the other hand, our and our affiliates’ relationships with you as described and referred to herein.

8. No Fiduciary Relationship.

You further acknowledge and agree that you and your subsidiaries are responsible for making your and their own independent judgment with respect to the Transactions, the Bridge Facility and the process leading thereto. In addition, please note that the Commitment Party nor its affiliates provide accounting, tax or legal advice.

For purposes of this paragraph, “Confidential Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, including but not limited to all information relating to the Transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, other than any such information that is available to the Commitment Party or any of its respective affiliates on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries. The Commitment Party’s obligations under this paragraph shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (A) the twelve-month anniversary of the date hereof and (B) the execution by such Commitment Party of the Bridge Facility Documentation, to the extent covered thereby. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, nothing in this Commitment Letter shall prohibit or in any way restrict any individual from reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, otherwise communicating directly with, cooperating with or providing information to any governmental or regulatory body or any self-regulatory organization including but not limited to, bank examiners, the SEC, DOJ, FINRA, NFA, or the CFTC, or making other disclosures pursuant to applicable “whistleblower” laws or regulations. It is understood and agreed that the Commitment Party may advertise or promote its role in arranging or providing the Bridge Facility (including in any newspaper or other periodical, on any website or similar place for dissemination of information on the internet, as part of a “case study” incorporated into promotional materials, in the form of a “tombstone” advertisement or otherwise).
