Any division of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company that is a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

Section 1.05 Pro Forma Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.05.

66

(b) For purposes of calculating the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period and (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If, since the beginning of any applicable Test Period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.05, then the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.05.

(c) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Issuer and include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies projected by the Issuer in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken or with respect to which steps have been initiated, or are reasonably expected to be initiated, within eighteen (18) months of the closing date of such Specified Transaction (in the good faith determination of the Issuer) (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies had been realized during the entirety of the applicable period), net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions; provided that, with respect to any such cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies, the limitations and requirements set forth in clause (c) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” (other than the requirement set forth in clause (c) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” that steps have been initiated or taken) shall apply; provided, further, that the aggregate amount of additions made to Consolidated EBITDA for any Test Period pursuant to this clause (c) and clause (c) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” shall not (i) exceed 10.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for such Test Period (before giving effect to this clause (c) and clause (c) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA”) or (ii) be duplicative of one another.

(d) In the event that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, prepayment, retirement, exchange or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as the case may be (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility without a corresponding permanent reduction in the commitments with respect thereto), (i) during the applicable Test Period and/or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on (A) the last day of the applicable Test Period in the case of the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and (B) on the first day of the applicable Test Period in the case of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Interest on a Capital Lease shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a secured overnight financing rate, an interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate.

Section 1.06 [Reserved].

Section 1.07 Limited Condition Transactions. For purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, (ii) determining compliance with representations, warranties, Defaults or Events of Default or (iii) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement or any other Note Document (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA or of Consolidated Total Assets), in each case, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction (a “Limited Condition Transaction” shall be defined as any Permitted Acquisition or other Acquisition not prohibited hereunder (including repayment of Indebtedness of the Person acquired, or that is secured by the assets acquired, in such Permitted Acquisition or other acquisition), any permitted Investment or any unconditional repayment or redemption of, or offer to purchase, any Indebtedness, and, in each case, any transactions in connection therewith, including the incurrence of Indebtedness, Liens and Asset Sales and the designation or redesignation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary), at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action (including actions in connection therewith) is permitted under this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens, the Limited Condition Transaction for which the proceeds will be used) (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Issuer could have taken such action (and actions in connection therewith) on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such representation, warranty, absence of default or event of default, ratio or basket, such representation, warranty, absence of Default or Event of Default, ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with, in each case regardless of whether such provision makes reference to this Section 1.07, a Limited Condition Transaction or an LCT Election. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Issuer has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of ratios or baskets on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated (a) on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (b) in the case of any such ratio or basket related to Restricted Payments or prepayments of Other Junior Indebtedness, without giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of any Indebtedness that may be incurred under the Ratio Incurrence Based Amount, determined at the time of signing of definitive documentation with respect to, or giving of notice with respect to, a Limited Condition Transaction may be recalculated, at the option of the Issuer, at the time of funding.

Section 1.08 Ratio Calculations; Negative Covenant Reclassification.

(a) With respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of any Note Document that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, whether or not specifically required to be determined on a Pro Forma Basis) (any such amounts (which will include any related “grower” component), the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of such Note Document that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (including the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, whether or not specifically required to be determined on a Pro Forma Basis) which may include any “builder” or “grower” amount (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts together with any amounts incurred to fund original issue discount and upfront fees shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to such Incurrence-Based Amounts. For example, if the Issuer incurs Indebtedness under clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Ratio Debt Amount” on the same date that it incurs Indebtedness under clause (d) of the definition of “Ratio Debt Amount”, then the Consolidated Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio and any other applicable ratio will be calculated with respect to such incurrence under clause (d) of the definition of “Ratio Debt Amount” without regard to any incurrence on such date of Indebtedness under clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Ratio Debt Amount”. If the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries enters into any revolving, delayed draw or other committed debt facility, the Issuer may elect to determine compliance of such debt facility (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens from time to time in connection therewith) with this Agreement and each other Note Document on the date definitive loan documents with respect thereto are executed by all parties thereto, assuming the full amount of such facility is incurred (and any applicable Liens are granted) on such date, in lieu of determining such compliance on any subsequent date (including any date on which Indebtedness is incurred pursuant to such facility).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Note Document to the contrary, (i) unless specifically stated otherwise herein, any carve-out, basket, exclusion or exception to any affirmative, negative or other covenant in this Agreement or the other Note Documents may be used together by any Note Party and its Subsidiaries without limitation for any purpose not prohibited hereby, and (ii) any action or event permitted by this Agreement or the other Note Documents need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such action or event but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents. For purposes of determining compliance with Article X, in the event that any Lien, Investment, Indebtedness (whether at the time of incurrence or upon application of all or a portion of the proceeds thereof), Asset Sale, disposition, fundamental change, Restricted Payment, Affiliate transaction, contractual requirement or payment or prepayment of Indebtedness meets the criteria of one, or more than one, of the “baskets” or categories of transactions then permitted pursuant to any clause or subsection of Article X, such transaction (or any portion thereof) at any time shall be permitted under one or more of such “baskets” or categories at the time of such transaction or any later time from time to time, in each case, as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion at such time and thereafter may be reclassified or divided (as if incurred at such later time) by the Issuer in any manner not expressly prohibited by this Agreement, and such Lien, Investment, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, disposition, fundamental change, Restricted Payment, Affiliate transaction, contractual requirement or payment or prepayment of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) shall be treated as having been incurred or existing pursuant to only such “basket” or category of transactions or “baskets” or categories of transactions (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Liens, Investments, Indebtedness, Asset Sales, dispositions, fundamental changes, Restricted Payments, Affiliate transactions, contractual requirements or payments or prepayments of Indebtedness, as applicable, that may be incurred pursuant to any other “basket” or category of transactions.

Article II
NOTES

Section 2.01 Closing Date Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Closing Date Note Purchaser severally agrees to purchase Notes denominated in Dollars from the Issuer on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Closing Date Note Purchaser’s Closing Date Note Commitment, which Notes shall be issued substantially in the form of Exhibit A. The Notes will be represented by one or more global securities in book-entry form which will be deposited by or on behalf of the Issuer with The Depository Trust Company (DTC) or its designated custodian. On the Closing Date, the Issuer will deliver to the Paying Agent (as defined in the Paying Agency Agreement) as custodian for DTC or its nominee, for the account of each applicable Closing Date Note Purchaser as set forth in Annex A, the Closing Date Notes purchased by such Purchaser (in minimum denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 in excess of $1.00) against payment of the purchase price therefor. Amounts repaid or prepaid on any Closing Date Note may not be re-issued. The aggregate amount of the Closing Date Note Commitment of each Purchaser shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the issuance of such Purchaser’s Closing Date Note pursuant to this Section 2.01.

Section 2.02 Funding of Purchase(s).

(a) Each issuance of Notes shall occur upon the Issuer’s written notice to the Note Agent in the form of a Purchase Request. Each Purchase Request must be received by the Note Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of any issuance of Notes (or such later time as may be reasonably agreed by the applicable Purchasers and the Note Agent). Each Purchase Request shall specify (i) the requested date of the issuance of the Notes (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the principal amount of Notes to be purchased, and (iii) the wiring information of the account of the Issuer to which the proceeds of such issuance are to be disbursed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Purchase Request may be conditioned upon the occurrence of the Transactions or any other acquisition, sale, incurrence of Indebtedness, issuance of Equity Interests or any other transaction.

(b) Each Purchaser shall pay the consideration for the purchase of each Note on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds on such date, in each case, to the account set forth in the applicable Purchase Request (or, in respect of the Closing Date Notes, to the account separately identified by the Issuer to each Purchaser, in a funds flow or otherwise). Promptly upon each issuance of Notes, each Purchaser shall provide the Note Agent with a written notice (which may be via email) confirming that it has purchased its applicable Note and the amount thereof (and the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Note Agent may conclusively rely on such written notice for all purposes of the Note Documents (including updating the Register to include such issuance of Notes) and (ii) the Note Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to inquire into or confirm whether the proceeds of such issuance of Notes were actually received by the Issuer).

70

Section 2.03 Cancellation of Notes. Upon redemption, payment in full or surrender of a Note for transfer, exchange, or cancellation the Issuer will cancel such Note and will provide the Note Agent written notice of such cancellation.

Section 2.04 Paying Agency Agreement. For so long as any of the Notes are held in global form through The Depository Trust Company (DTC) (or any successor depositary), such Notes issued hereunder that are held in global form shall be subject to the provisions of the Paying Agency Agreement. To the extent any provision of this Agreement relating to the matters expressly governed by the Paying Agency Agreement conflicts with the express provisions of the Paying Agency Agreement, the provisions of the Paying Agency Agreement shall govern and be controlling.

Section 2.05 Fees.

(a) The Issuer shall pay to each Purchaser, for its own account, on the Closing Date, an upfront fee in the amount specified in the Fee Letter.

(b) The Issuer shall pay to the Lead Arranger, for its own account, on the Closing Date, fees in the amounts specified in the Engagement Letter.

(c) The Issuer shall pay to the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent, for their own account, the fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Agent Fee Letter.

Section 2.06 [Reserved].

Section 2.07 Several Obligations of Purchasers. Each Note shall be issued and purchased ratably in accordance with the applicable Purchasers’ respective Commitments. The failure of any Purchaser to purchase any Note to be purchased by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Purchaser of its obligation to purchase its Notes on such date, but neither any Purchaser nor the Note Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Purchaser to purchase a Note to be made by such other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall have any obligation to the Note Agent or any other Purchaser for the failure by such Purchaser to purchase any Note required to be purchased by such Purchaser.

Section 2.08 Evidence of Debt; Register.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) Each Purchaser shall maintain one or more accounts or records maintained in the ordinary course of business in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Note purchased hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Issuer to such Purchaser under its Notes and (iii) the amount of any sum received by such Purchaser from the Issuer for the account of the Notes held by such Purchaser. The accounts or records maintained by each Purchaser pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts owing by the Issuer to such Purchaser resulting from the issuance of each Note held by such Purchaser and the interest and payments thereon; provided, however, that the failure of such Purchaser (or its nominee) to make an entry or recordation or any error in such entry or recordation shall not affect the obligations of the Issuer to make a payment when due of any amount owing under its Notes.

71

(c) The Note Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Issuer, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the name and address of each Purchaser (and their respective successors and assigns), the Commitment from time to time of each of the Purchasers, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by each of the Purchasers (and the related payments on account of interest thereon), and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Notes of each Purchaser. Failure to make any such recordation or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Issuer’s obligations in respect of the Notes. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence of the information noted therein (absent manifest error), and the parties hereto shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the holder of a Note or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of the Note Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. In addition, the Note Agent shall maintain in the register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Purchaser as a Defaulting Purchaser. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Issuer or any Purchaser at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided that the information contained in the Register which is shared with each Purchaser shall be limited to the entries with respect to such Purchaser, including the principal amount of and interest on the Notes held by such Purchaser. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register; provided, however, that the Note Agent agrees to record in the Register any assignment entered into pursuant to the terms hereof promptly after the effectiveness of such assignment. In the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Purchaser’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern. In the event of any conflict between the records maintained by any Purchaser and the Register, the Register shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.09 Optional Redemptions.

(a) The Issuer may, at its option (each, an “Optional Redemption”), on any date from time to time (each, an “Optional Redemption Date”), at any time or from time to time redeem all or any portion of any Notes at a price equal to the Redemption Amount, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.09; provided, that any Optional Redemption shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 and in multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof. Any election by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be made by delivery to the Purchasers, with a copy to the Note Agent, of written notice (the “Optional Redemption Notice”) of the Issuer’s election to redeem the Notes at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Optional Redemption Date, which notice shall indicate (i) the Class of Notes to be redeemed, (ii) the Redemption Amount, (iii) the Optional Redemption Date (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue after the Optional Redemption Date, and (v) the paragraph of the Notes or the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which the Notes being called for redemption are being redeemed; provided that any Optional Redemption Notice may be conditioned upon one or more conditions precedent, including the occurrence of any acquisition, sale, incurrence of Indebtedness, issuance of Equity Interests or any other transaction. On the applicable Optional Redemption Date, the Issuer shall redeem the applicable Notes and pay the applicable Redemption Amount to the Note Agent, for the ratable account of the Purchasers.

(b) The amount of any Optional Redemption described in Section 2.09(a) shall be applied to redeem Notes in amounts and to Tranches all as determined by the Issuer, provided that, within the same Tranche of Notes, Notes shall be redeemed on a pro rata basis among the relevant Purchasers in accordance with Section 4.02.

72

(c) From and after the close of business on any Optional Redemption Date on which the applicable Redemption Amount has been paid, all rights connected to Notes being so redeemed shall cease on such Optional Redemption Date, and such Notes shall not thereafter be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever, and upon written request by the Issuer, the originals thereof shall promptly be returned by the applicable Purchaser to the Issuer.

(d) If any Notes, or portions of Notes, are not redeemed on the applicable Optional Redemption Date for any reason, all such unredeemed Notes shall remain outstanding and entitled to all of the designations, rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations of the Notes set forth in this Agreement, including the right to accrue and receive any interest thereon as provided in Section 3.02 until the date on which the Issuer actually redeems and pays in full the Redemption Amount for such Notes, or the applicable portion thereof.

(e) The Note Agent shall update the Register to reflect any full or partial redemption of the Notes made pursuant to this Section 2.09. Any Note that is redeemed in full shall be surrendered by the Purchaser thereof to the Issuer for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.03 and, if applicable, Section 2.16.

Section 2.10 Mandatory Redemption Offers.

(a) Mandatory Redemption Offer Events. The Issuer shall make an offer to all Purchasers to redeem the Notes as follows (each such offer to be made in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in Section 2.10(b)):

| (x) | if no Event of Default is then continuing or would arise therefrom, the Issuer shall not be required to make a redemption offer pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(i) if the Issuer delivers an Officer’s Certificate to the Note Agent stating that an amount equal to such Net Available Proceeds is intended to be used to fund the acquisition of Property (which may be pursuant to an acquisition of Equity Interests of a Person that directly or indirectly owns such assets) used or usable in the business of (A) if such Casualty Event relates to any Note Party, any Note Party or (B) if such Casualty Event relates to any other Company, any Company, or repair, replace or restore the Property or other Property used or usable in the business of (A) if such Casualty Event relates to any Note Party, any Note Party or (B) if such Casualty Event relates to any other Company, any Company (in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Security Document in respect of which such Casualty Event has occurred, to the extent applicable and, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Property is subject to a Gaming/Racing Lease, may be applied in accordance with the provisions of such Gaming/Racing Lease (it being understood that such Property so repaired, replaced, restored or otherwise acquired may be owned by the Landlord under such Gaming/Racing Lease and leased to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary under such Gaming/Racing Lease)), in each case within (A) twelve (12) months following receipt of such Net Available Proceeds or (B) if the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Available Proceeds within twelve (12) months following receipt thereof, within the later of (1) one hundred and eighty (180) days following the date of such legally binding commitment and (2) twelve (12) months following receipt of such Net Available Proceeds (provided that the Issuer may elect to deem expenditures that otherwise would be permissible reinvestments that occur prior to receipt of the proceeds of a Casualty Event to have been reinvested in accordance with the provisions hereof, so long as such deemed expenditure shall have been made no earlier than the applicable Casualty Event), and

73

| (y) | if all or any portion of such Net Available Proceeds is not used in accordance with the Officer’s Certificate referred to in clause (x) above within the period specified by clause (x) above, then the Issuer shall use such remaining portion to make an offer to purchase the Notes in accordance with this Section 2.10(a)(i).

(ii) Debt Issuance. In the event the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiaries receives any Net Available Proceeds from any Debt Issuance after the Closing Date, the Issuer shall make an offer to all Purchasers to purchase, on the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date, an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds of such Debt Issuance at a price equal to the applicable Redemption Amount on such Mandatory Redemption Date; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.10, if the Net Available Proceeds of the Debt Issuance consists of Net Available Proceeds of Refinancing Indebtedness, such Net Available Proceeds shall not be subject to a redemption offer pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(ii) and shall instead be applied to the repayment or redemption of the applicable Refinanced Debt. The Issuer shall cause any Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary that receives Net Available Proceeds of any Debt Issuance to promptly distribute such Net Available Proceeds to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for application in accordance with this Section 2.10(a)(ii).

| (x) | if all or any portion of such Net Available Proceeds is not reinvested in assets in accordance with the Officer’s Certificate referred to in clause (x) above within the period specified by clause (x) above, then the Issuer shall use such remaining portion to make an offer to purchase the Notes in accordance with this Section 2.10(a)(iii); and

The Issuer shall cause any Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary that receives Net Available Proceeds of any Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale to promptly distribute such Net Available Proceeds to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for application in accordance with this Section 2.10(a)(iii).

75

For each fiscal year (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025), the Issuer shall make an offer to all Purchasers to purchase, on the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date, an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to, (x) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year to extent in excess of $20.0 million, minus (y) the principal amount of (i) Notes voluntarily redeemed pursuant to Sections 2.09, 2.11, 13.04(b), 13.05(d) (limited to the amount of cash actually paid) and 13.05(k) during such fiscal year (or, at the Issuer’s election, after such fiscal year and prior to the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date (without duplication of amounts deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any other period)) plus (ii) [reserved], plus (iii) Other First Lien Indebtedness voluntarily prepaid (and, to the extent consisting of revolving loans, so long as accompanied by a permanent reduction of the underlying commitments) during such fiscal year (or, at the Issuer’s election, after such period and prior to the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date (without duplication of amounts deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any other period)), in each case, except to the extent financed with the proceeds of Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness) of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries (the aggregate amount set forth in the foregoing clause (x) minus the aggregate amount set forth in the foregoing clause (y), the “Excess Cash Flow Net Available Proceeds”), at a price equal to the applicable Redemption Amount on such applicable Mandatory Redemption Date.

(v) Change of Control. In the event of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer to all Purchasers to purchase, on the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date, all of the Notes outstanding held by each Purchaser at a price equal to the applicable Redemption Amount on such Mandatory Redemption Date.

(vi) Redemption Not Required. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.10(a), to the extent that any of or all the Net Available Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale or Casualty Event with respect to any property or assets of Foreign Subsidiaries or any Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries, are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be offered to redeem Notes at the times and in the manner provided in this Section 2.10 so long as applicable local law does not permit repatriation to the United States (the Issuer hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, (x) an amount equal to such Net Available Proceeds shall be reinvested pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i) or (iii), as applicable, or used to make a redemption offer pursuant to Section 2.10(b), and (y) an amount equal to such Excess Cash Flow shall be used to make a redemption offer pursuant to Section 2.10(b). To the extent the Issuer determines in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Available Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale or Casualty Event with respect to any property or assets of Foreign Subsidiaries or any Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries would result in a material (as determined by the Issuer in its reasonable discretion) adverse Tax liability to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries (including any material (as determined by the Issuer in its reasonable discretion) adverse withholding Tax), the applicable mandatory redemption offer shall be reduced by the Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected (the “Restricted Amount”) until such time as the Issuer determines in good faith that repatriation of the Restricted Amount may occur without incurring such material Tax liability, at which time, (x) an amount equal to any such Net Available Proceeds shall be reinvested pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i) or (iii), as applicable, or used to make a redemption offer pursuant to Section 2.10(b), and (y) an amount equal to any such Excess Cash Flow shall be used to make a redemption offer pursuant to Section 2.10(b).

76

(vii) Prepayments and Redemptions of Other First Lien Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 2.10(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or otherwise, any Net Available Proceeds from any such Casualty Event, Debt Issuance, Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale or Asset Sale and any such Excess Cash Flow otherwise required to be offered to redeem the Notes may, at the Issuer’s option, be applied to prepay or redeem the principal amount of Other First Lien Indebtedness only to (and not in excess of) the extent to which a mandatory prepayment or mandatory redemption offer in respect of such Casualty Event, Debt Issuance, Asset Sale, Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale or Excess Cash Flow is required under the terms of such Other First Lien Indebtedness (with the Issuer using any remaining Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, to make an offer to redeem Notes in accordance with the terms hereof), unless such application would result in the holders of Other First Lien Indebtedness receiving in excess of their pro rata share (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes and Other First Lien Indebtedness at such time) of such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, relative to the Purchasers, in which case such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, may only be applied to prepay or redeem the principal amount of Other First Lien Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with outstanding Notes. To the extent the holders of Other First Lien Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased, repaid or prepaid with any such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, the declined amount of such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, shall promptly (and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be offered to redeem Notes in accordance with the terms hereof (to the extent such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, would otherwise have been required to be offered if such Other First Lien Indebtedness was not then outstanding). Any such application to Other First Lien Indebtedness shall reduce any redemptions otherwise required hereunder by an equivalent amount.

(b) Mandatory Redemption Offer. In the event of the occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Offer Event, the Issuer shall follow the procedures set forth in this Section 2.10(b) as follows:

(i) The Issuer shall provide written notice to all Purchasers, with a copy to the Note Agent, no later than (x) with respect to a Mandatory Redemption Offer Event described in Sections 2.10(a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(iii), five (5) Business Days following receipt of the relevant Net Available Proceeds by the Issuer or other applicable Company (or, in the case of any Net Available Proceeds that have been repatriated pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(vi), no later than five (5) Business Days following such repatriation), (y) with respect to a Mandatory Redemption Offer Event described in Section 2.10(a)(iv), five (5) Business Days after the date on which the financial statements of the Issuer referred to in Section 9.04(b) for the relevant fiscal year are required to be delivered to the Note Agent (or, in the case of Excess Cash Flow that has been repatriated pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(vi), no later than five (5) Business Days following such repatriation), and (z) with respect to a Mandatory Redemption Offer Event described in Section 2.10(a)(v), five (5) Business Days following the occurrence of the Change of Control. Each such notice shall state (w) the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which the redemption offer is being made, (x) if applicable, the amount of Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow Net Available Proceeds being offered, (y) the expected Redemption Amount, and (z) the date (which shall be a Business Day) on which such mandatory redemption will occur (which date shall be not earlier than five (5) Business Days and not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the occurrence of the applicable Mandatory Redemption Offer Event) (such date, the “Mandatory Redemption Date”), and shall further state that (1) any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest, and (2) unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to an offer made in accordance with this Section 2.10(b) will cease to accrue interest from and after the Mandatory Redemption Date.

77

(ii) Each Purchaser shall respond to the notice referred to in clause (i) above no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date indicating whether it elects to require the Issuer to redeem the Notes held by such Purchaser subject to the redemption offer on such Mandatory Redemption Date (which Notes, for the avoidance of doubt, may be less than all of the Notes held by such Purchaser in case of a redemption offer made by the Issuer not in connection with a Change of Control). If any Purchaser fails to notify the Issuer (with a copy to the Note Agent) of its intention to redeem the Notes held by such Purchaser subject to the redemption offer within one (1) Business Day prior to the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have exercised its rights under this Section 2.10 and the Issuer shall be required to redeem such Notes.

(iii) On or before any Mandatory Redemption Date, the Issuer shall redeem the Notes elected to be redeemed by the Purchasers on a pro rata basis and pay the applicable Redemption Amount to the account(s) designated by the holder(s) of such Notes. Upon payment in full of the amounts owing under this Section 2.10 to any Purchaser that has its applicable Notes redeemed, the interest with respect to such Notes shall cease to accrue after the date of such payment in full and all rights with respect to such redeemed Notes shall forthwith terminate.

(iv) To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered pursuant to a redemption offer made in accordance with this Section 2.10 is less than the Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow Net Available Proceeds, as applicable, offered by the Issuer to the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 2.10, such Net Available Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow Net Available Proceeds may be retained by the Issuer (the “Declined Amounts”).

(c) From and after the close of business on any Mandatory Redemption Date on which the applicable Redemption Amount has been paid, all rights connected to Notes being so redeemed shall cease on such Mandatory Redemption Date, and such Notes shall not thereafter be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever, and upon written request by the Issuer, the originals thereof shall promptly be returned by the applicable Purchaser to the Issuer.

(d) If any Notes, or portions of Notes, are not redeemed on the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date for any reason, all such unredeemed Notes shall remain outstanding and entitled to all of the designations, rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations of the Notes set forth in this Agreement, including the right to accrue and receive any interest thereon as provided in Section 3.02 until the date on which the Issuer actually redeems and pays in full the Redemption Amount for such Notes, or the applicable portion thereof.

78

(e) The Note Agent shall update the Register to reflect any full or partial redemption of the Notes made pursuant to this Section 2.10. Any Note that is redeemed in full shall be surrendered by the Purchaser thereof to the Issuer for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.03 and, if applicable, Section 2.14.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without duplication of any amounts used to redeem the Closing Date Notes (or offered to redeem the Closing Date Notes) or to pay, prepay, redeem or otherwise retire any Other First Lien Indebtedness in accordance with this Section 2.10, the Closing Date Notes shall also share ratably with the First Lien Credit Facilities (based on the percentage of total Indebtedness outstanding as of the date of such payment under this Agreement and the First Lien Credit Agreement) in any and all other distributions or transfers of value (whether in cash, in kind or in any other form) (including any fees (including any consent or amendment fees), expenses or other economic benefits), made by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries resulting from, or made in connection with, the Twin River Casino Sale, taking into account all payments and distributions related to such sale; provided, this clause (f) shall not apply to any Excluded Amendment Fee. The Issuer shall provide the Note Agent with written notice of any amounts payable to the Purchasers under this clause (f) by no later than 12:00 p.m. New York time one (1) Business Day prior to such payment.

Section 2.11 Replacement of Purchasers.

(a) The Issuer shall have the right to replace any Purchaser (the “Replaced Purchaser”) with one or more other Eligible Assignees (collectively, the “Replacement Purchaser”), if (w) such Purchaser requires the Issuer to pay any Covered Taxes or additional amounts to such Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of such Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.06, (x) such Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser, (y) such Purchaser is subject to a Disqualification or (z) such Purchaser is a Disqualified Purchaser; provided, however, that (i) at the time of any such replacement, the Replacement Purchaser shall enter into one or more Assignment Agreements (and with all fees payable pursuant to Section 13.05(b) to be paid by the Replacement Purchaser or the Issuer) pursuant to which the Replacement Purchaser shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Notes of the Replaced Purchaser, (ii) at the time of any such replacement, the Replaced Purchaser shall receive an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Notes held by such Purchaser (other than any Notes not being acquired by a Replacement Purchaser), (iii) all obligations of the Issuer owing to such Replaced Purchaser (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of Replaced Purchasers for which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid, and other than those relating to Notes or Commitments not being acquired by a Replacement Purchaser), as applicable, shall be paid in full to such Replaced Purchaser, as applicable, concurrently with such replacement, as the case may be, (iv) in the case of any such replacement resulting from payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.06, such replacement will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter and (v) the Replacement Purchaser, if not already a Purchaser, shall provide to the Note Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, in accordance with Section 5.06(c) the appropriate IRS Forms (and, if applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) as described in Section 5.06(c), and all documentation and other information requested by Note Agent in connection with any Anti-Corruption Laws and anti-money laundering laws, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act and any applicable “know your customer” rules and regulations. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment Agreement and recordation thereof in the Register, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, as applicable, and the receipt of any consents that would be required for an assignment of the subject Notes and Commitments to such Replacement Purchaser in accordance with Section 13.05, the Replacement Purchaser, if any, shall become a Purchaser hereunder and the Replaced Purchaser, as applicable, shall cease to constitute a Purchaser hereunder and be released of all its obligations as a Purchaser, except with respect to indemnification provisions applicable to such Purchaser under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Purchaser and, in the case of any Replaced Purchaser, except with respect to Notes and Commitments not being acquired by the Replacement Purchaser; provided, that if the applicable Replaced Purchaser does not execute the Assignment Agreement within three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Note Agent) after the Issuer’s request, execution of such Assignment Agreement by the Replaced Purchaser shall not be required to effect such assignment.

79

(b) If the Issuer receives a notice from any applicable Gaming/Racing Authority or otherwise reasonably determines that any Purchaser is subject to a Disqualification (and such Purchaser is notified by the Issuer and the Note Agent in writing of such Disqualification), the Issuer shall have the right to replace such Purchaser with a Replacement Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.11(a) or repurchase the Notes held by such Purchaser at par, in each case, in accordance with any applicable provisions of Section 2.11(a), even if a Default or an Event of Default exists (notwithstanding anything contained in such Section 2.11(a) to the contrary), for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Notes held by such Purchaser, plus the amount of all accrued and unpaid interest thereon as of the date of redemption. Any such repurchase shall be deemed an optional redemption, as set forth in Section 2.09, except that any such redemption shall be made at par as specified in the immediately preceding sentence, and shall not be required to be made on a pro rata basis with respect to Notes of the same Tranche as the Notes held by such Purchaser. Notice to such Purchaser shall be given at least ten (10) days before the required date of transfer or redemption (unless a shorter period is required by any Requirement of Law and/or any Gaming/Racing License), as the case may be, and shall be accompanied by evidence demonstrating that such Purchaser is subject to a Disqualification or such transfer or redemption is otherwise required pursuant to Gaming/Racing Laws and/or any Gaming/Racing License. Upon receipt of a notice in accordance with the foregoing, the Replaced Purchaser shall cooperate with the Issuer in effectuating the required transfer or redemption within the time period set forth in such notice, not to be less than the minimum notice period set forth in the foregoing sentence (unless a shorter period is required under any Requirement of Law and/or any Gaming/Racing License). Further, if the transfer or redemption is triggered by notice from a Gaming/Racing Authority that the Purchaser is subject to a Disqualification, commencing on the date such Gaming/Racing Authority serves the notice of Disqualification upon the Issuer, to the extent prohibited by any Requirement of Law and/or by any Gaming/Racing License: (i) such Purchaser shall no longer receive any interest on the Notes; (ii) such Purchaser shall no longer exercise, directly or through any trustee or nominee, any right conferred by the Notes; and (iii) such Purchaser shall not receive any remuneration in any form from the Issuer for services or otherwise in respect of the Notes.

Section 2.12 [Reserved].

Section 2.13 Exchanges of Notes.

(a) The Issuer may, at any time request that all or a portion of the Notes of any Tranche (an “Existing Note Tranche”) be exchanged for another Tranche of Notes in order to extend the scheduled final maturity date thereof and/or to extend the date of any amortization payment thereon (any such Notes which have been so exchanged for, “Exchanged Notes”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.13. In order to establish any Exchanged Notes, the Issuer shall provide a notice to the Note Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Purchasers of the applicable Existing Note Tranche) (a “Exchange Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Exchanged Notes to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Notes of the Existing Note Tranche from which they are to be modified except (i) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended to the date set forth in the applicable Exchange Amendment and the amortization shall be as set forth in the Exchange Amendment, (ii) (A) the interest rate with respect to the Exchanged Notes may be higher or lower than the interest rate for the Notes of such Existing Note Tranche and/or (B) additional or reduced fees (including prepayment or termination premiums) may be payable to the Purchasers providing such Exchanged Notes in addition to or in lieu of any increased or decreased interest rate contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Exchange Amendment, (iii) any Exchanged Notes may participate on a pro rata basis, a less than pro rata basis or a greater than a pro rata basis in any optional redemptions and on a pro rata or a less than pro rata basis (but no greater than a pro rata basis) in any mandatory redemptions of Notes hereunder in each case as specified in the respective Exchange Request, and (iv) the final maturity date and the scheduled amortization applicable to the Exchanged Notes shall be set forth in the applicable Exchange Amendment and the scheduled amortization of such Existing Note Tranche shall be adjusted to reflect the amortization schedule (including the principal amounts payable pursuant thereto) in respect of the Notes under such Existing Note Tranche that have been exchanged for Exchanged Notes as set forth in the applicable Exchange Amendment; provided, however, that the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Exchanged Notes shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Notes of such Existing Note Tranche. Except as provided above, each Purchaser holding Exchanged Notes shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by this Agreement and the other Note Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Security Documents. The Note Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by Note Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents continue to secure all the Obligations and continue to be perfected under the UCC or other applicable Law or otherwise after giving effect to the extension of any Notes, including, without limitation, the procurement of title insurance endorsements reasonably requested by the Note Agent and reasonably satisfactory to the Note Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Purchasers). No Purchaser shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Notes of any Existing Note Tranche exchanged for Exchanged Notes pursuant to any Exchange Request. Any Exchanged Notes of any Exchanged Note Tranche shall constitute a separate Tranche and Class of Notes from the Existing Note Tranche for which they were exchanged.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) The Issuer shall provide the applicable Exchange Request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Purchasers under the Existing Note Tranche are requested to respond (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Note Agent in its sole discretion). Any Purchaser (an “Exchanging Purchaser”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Notes of the Existing Note Tranche subject to such Exchange Request replaced with Exchanged Notes shall notify the Note Agent (an “Exchange Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Exchange Request of the amount of its Notes of the Existing Note Tranche that it has elected to replace with Exchanged Notes. In the event that the aggregate amount of Notes of the Existing Notes Tranche subject to Exchange Elections exceeds the amount of Exchanged Notes requested pursuant to the Exchange Request, Notes subject to such Exchange Elections shall be exchanged for Exchanged Notes on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Notes included in such Exchange Elections. The Issuer shall have the right to withdraw any Exchange Request upon written notice to the Note Agent in the event that the aggregate amount of Notes of the Existing Note Tranche subject to such Exchange Request is less than the amount of Exchanged Notes requested pursuant to such Exchange Request.

81

(d) Exchanged Notes shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Exchange Amendment”) to this Agreement (which shall be substantially in a form reasonably acceptable to the Note Agent). Each Exchange Amendment shall be executed by the Issuer, the Note Agent and the Exchanging Purchasers (it being understood that such Exchange Amendment shall not require the consent of any Purchaser other than the Exchanging Purchasers with respect to the Exchanged Notes established thereby). An Exchange Amendment may, subject to Sections 2.13(a), without the consent of any other Purchasers, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Note Documents as may be necessary or advisable, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Agent and the Issuer, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.13 (including, without limitation, such technical amendments as may be necessary or advisable, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Agent and the Issuer, to give effect to the terms and provisions of any Exchanged Notes).

Section 2.14 Defaulting Purchaser Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a Purchaser becomes a Defaulting Purchaser, then, until such time as that Purchaser is no longer a Defaulting Purchaser, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(a) such Defaulting Purchaser’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of “Required Purchasers” and “Required Tranche Purchasers” in Section 1.01 and in Section 13.04; and

(b) such Defaulting Purchaser shall not be entitled to receive any fees pursuant to Section 2.05(a) for any period during which such Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser (and the Issuer shall not be required to pay any such fees that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Purchaser).

Section 2.15 Refinancing Amendments.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Issuer may issue Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Notes then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Notes and Exchanged Notes), in the form of Other Notes or Other Note Commitments pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment. Each issuance of Refinancing Indebtedness under this Section 2.15(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $5.0 million and (y) an integral multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof.

(b) The issuance of any such Refinancing Indebtedness shall be subject solely to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) other than customary “bridge” facilities (so long as the long term debt into which any such customary “bridge” facility is to be automatically converted satisfies the requirements of this clause (b)), any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Notes will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of, and a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of, the Notes being refinanced; (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any Refinancing Indebtedness shall not exceed the principal amount so refinanced, plus, accrued interest, plus, any premium or other payment required to be paid in connection with such refinancing, plus, the amount of reasonable and customary fees and expenses of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurred in connection with such refinancing, plus, any unutilized commitments thereunder; (iii) to the extent reasonably requested by the Note Agent, receipt by the Note Agent and the Purchasers of customary legal opinions and other documents; (iv) to the extent reasonably requested by the Note Agent, execution of amendments to the Mortgages by the applicable Note Parties and the Collateral Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Purchasers); (v) to the extent reasonably requested by the Note Agent, delivery to the Note Agent of title insurance endorsements reasonably satisfactory to the Note Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Purchasers); and (vi) execution of a Refinancing Amendment by the Note Parties, the Note Agent and Purchasers providing such Refinancing Indebtedness and the issuance of Other Notes by the Issuer to such Purchasers.

82

(c) The Notes and Commitments issued pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall constitute Notes and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Note Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Security Documents. The Note Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Note Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents continue to secure all the Obligations and continue to be perfected under the UCC or other applicable Law or otherwise after giving effect to the applicable Refinancing Amendment.

(d) Upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment pursuant to this Section 2.15, any Person providing the corresponding Refinancing Indebtedness that was not a Purchaser hereunder immediately prior to such time shall become a Purchaser hereunder. The Note Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser as to the effectiveness of such Refinancing Amendment, and (i) any Other Notes resulting from such Refinancing Amendment shall be deemed to be Notes hereunder (to the extent purchased) and (ii) any Other Note Commitments resulting from such Refinancing Amendment shall be deemed to be Commitments hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Issuer, the Collateral Agent and the Note Agent may (and each of the Collateral Agent and the Note Agent are authorized by each other Secured Party to) execute such amendments and/or amendments and restatements of any Note Documents as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.15.

(e) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Indebtedness issued pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Notes and Commitments subject thereto as Other Notes and Other Note Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Purchasers, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Note Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Agent and the Issuer, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15. This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 4.02, 4.07(b) or 13.04 to the contrary.

The Note Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.

(b) The Issuer shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any Note for the account of any Purchaser, specify (in accordance with Sections 2.09 and 2.10, if applicable) to Note Agent (which shall so notify the intended recipient(s) thereof), the Class of Notes or other amounts payable by the Issuer hereunder to which such payment is to be applied.

(c) Each payment received by the Note Agent under this Agreement or any Note for the account of any Purchaser shall be paid by the Note Agent to such Purchaser in immediately available funds, (x) if the payment was actually received by the Note Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. (Noon), New York time, on any Business Day, on such day and (y) if the payment was actually received by the Note Agent after 12:00 p.m. (Noon), New York time, on any day, by no later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the following Business Day.

Section 4.06 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Note Agent.

(a) Unless the Note Agent shall have received notice from a Purchaser prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Note Agent hereunder that such Purchaser will not make such payment, the Note Agent may assume that such Purchaser has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available a corresponding amount to the Issuer. In such event, if such Purchaser has not in fact made such payment on such date, such Purchaser shall forthwith on demand pay to the Note Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Note Agent to the Issuer to the date such amount is recovered by the Note Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate. When such Purchaser makes the payment to the Note Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then the amount so paid (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Purchaser’s Note included in the issuance. If such Purchaser does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Note Agent’s demand therefor, the Note Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Issuer, and the Issuer shall pay such amount to the Note Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to such Note. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve such Purchaser from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Note Agent or the Issuer may have against any Purchaser as a result of any default by such Purchaser hereunder.

(b) Unless the Note Agent shall have received notice from the Issuer prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Note Agent for the account of the Purchasers hereunder that the Issuer will not make such payment, the Note Agent may assume that Issuer has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Purchasers the amount due. In such event, if the Issuer has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Purchasers severally agrees to repay to the Note Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Purchaser, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Note Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(c) A notice of the Note Agent to any Purchaser or the Issuer with respect to any amount owing under this Section 4.06 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Section 5.06 Net Payments.

(a) All payments by or on account of any obligation of any Note Party under any Note Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws require the deduction or withholding of any Tax in respect of any such payment by the Note Agent, a Note Party or any other applicable withholding agent, then (i) the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the applicable withholding agent to be required, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Covered Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or deductions are made (including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.06), the applicable Purchaser (or, in the case of payments made to the Note Agent for its own account, the Note Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. The Issuer shall furnish to the Note Agent as soon as practicable after the date of the payment of any Taxes by a Note Party pursuant to this Section 5.06 documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Note Agent evidencing such payment by the applicable Note Party. The Note Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Note Agent and each Purchaser, and reimburse the Note Agent or such Purchaser (as applicable) upon its written request, for the amount of any Covered Taxes payable or paid by such Purchaser or the Note Agent or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such recipient (including Covered Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section 5.06) and for any other reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case, whether or not such Covered Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Such written request shall include a certificate of such Purchaser or the Note Agent setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such request and such certificate, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive.

86

(b) In addition, the Note Parties agree to (and shall timely) pay, or at the option of the Note Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar Taxes which arise from any payment made under or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, any Note Document, except any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment pursuant to Section 2.11(a)) (Taxes payable pursuant to this Section 5.06(b) referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) (i) Any Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Note Document shall deliver to the Issuer and the Note Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws and at the time or times reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Purchaser, if reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent as will enable the Issuer or the Note Agent to determine whether or not such Purchaser is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (c)(ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 5.06) shall not be required if in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Purchaser to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Purchaser.

(ii) Each Purchaser that is not a U.S. Person (a “Non-U.S. Purchaser”) agrees to the extent it is legally eligible to do so to deliver to the Issuer and the Note Agent on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, and from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Note Agent, whichever of the following is applicable: (1) in the case of a Non-U.S. Purchaser claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, two executed copies of (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Note Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Note Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (2) two executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (3) in the case of a Non-U.S. Purchaser claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) or 871(h) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 hereto to the effect that such Non-U.S. Purchaser is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Issuer within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a CFC related to the Issuer as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and that no interest payments in connection with any Note Documents are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Purchaser’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or (4) to the extent a Non-U.S. Purchaser is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Purchaser are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, two executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 hereto on behalf of such direct and indirect partner, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each direct or indirect partner, as applicable.

87

(iii) Each Purchaser that is a U.S. Person shall deliver at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by applicable Law, on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, and from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Note Agent, to the Issuer and the Note Agent (as applicable), a properly completed and duly executed IRS Form W-9, or any successor form, certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding.

(iv) If a payment made to a Purchaser under any Note Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Purchaser were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Purchaser shall deliver to the Issuer and the Note Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Note Agent as may be necessary for the Issuer and the Note Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Purchaser has complied with such Purchaser’s obligations under FATCA, and to determine the amount to deduct and withhold, if any, from such payment. For purposes of this Section 5.06(c)(iv), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(v) Any Non-U.S. Purchaser shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Issuer and the Note Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Non-U.S. Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Note Agent), executed copies of any other documentation prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Issuer or the Note Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, if any.

(vi) Each Purchaser agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such documentation or promptly notify the Issuer and the Note Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Note Agent to deliver to the Note Parties and to any successor Note Agent any documentation provided by such Purchaser to the Note Agent pursuant to this Section 5.06(c).

88

(d) On or before the date the Note Agent becomes a party to this Agreement, if the Note Agent is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to the Issuer two executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. Otherwise, the Note Agent (including any successor the Note Agent that is not a U.S. Person) shall deliver two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments) certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of Purchasers are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Note Parties to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Note Parties and the Note Agent agree to so treat the Note Agent as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments, with the effect that the Note Parties can make payments to the Note Agent without deduction or withholding of any Tax imposed by the United States). The Note Agent hereby assumes primary U.S. withholding for purposes of Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code, backup withholding and IRS Form 1099 information reporting obligations with respect to all amounts paid to it by the Note Parties under the Note Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.06(d), the Note Agent shall not be required to provide any documentation that the Note Agent is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a Change in Law after the Closing Date.

(e) Any Purchaser requiring the Issuer to pay any Covered Taxes or additional amounts to such Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of such Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.06 agrees to use (at the Note Parties’ expense) commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder and under the Notes to an Affiliate if, in the judgment of such Purchaser, the making of such change or assignment would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Purchaser.

89

(f) If the Note Agent or any Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of an overpayment of Taxes from a Governmental Authority with respect to an amount of Taxes actually paid to or on behalf of the Note Agent or such Purchaser by the Issuer or any other Note Party pursuant to this Section 5.06, then the Note Agent or such Purchaser shall notify the Issuer of such refund and forward the proceeds of such refund (or relevant portion thereof) to the Issuer (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 5.06 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund) as reduced by any reasonable expense or liability incurred by the Note Agent or such Purchaser in connection with obtaining such refund (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Issuer, upon the request of the Note Agent or such Purchaser, shall repay the amount paid over to the Issuer (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Note Agent or such Purchaser in the event the Note Agent or such Purchaser is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 5.06(f) shall not be construed to require the Note Agent or any Purchaser to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Issuer or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.06(f), in no event will the Note Agent or any Purchaser be required to pay any amount to any Note Party pursuant to this Section 5.06(f) the payment of which would place the Note Agent or such Purchaser in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

(g) Each Purchaser shall severally indemnify the Note Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Covered Taxes attributable to such Purchaser (but only to the extent that any Note Party has not already indemnified the Note Agent for such Covered Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Note Parties to do so), (ii) [reserved] and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Purchaser, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Note Agent in connection with any Note Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Purchaser by the Note Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Note Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser under any Note Document or otherwise payable by the Note Agent to the Purchaser from any other source against any amount due to the Note Agent under this paragraph (g).

90

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.06 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Note Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Purchaser, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Note Document.

Article VI
GUARANTEES

Section 6.01 The Guarantees. Each (a) Guarantor that is a Domestic Note Party, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, hereby guarantees as primary obligor and not as surety to each Secured Party and its successors and assigns the prompt payment and performance in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise) of the principal of and interest and fees (including any interest, fees, costs, expenses, or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Debtor Relief Law after the filing of any bankruptcy or insolvency petition) on the Commitments made by the Purchasers to, and the Notes purchased and held by each Purchaser of, the Issuer, and (b) Domestic Note Party, jointly and severally with each other Note Party, hereby guarantees as primary obligor and not as surety to each Secured Party and its successors and assigns the prompt payment and performance in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest, fees and all other amounts (including any interest, fees, costs, expenses or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Debtor Relief Law after the filing of any bankruptcy or insolvency petition) of all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any other Note Party under any Note Document, in each case now or hereinafter created, incurred or made, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated and strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being guaranteed pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations” (it being understood that each Domestic Note Party’s Guaranteed Obligations shall not include any Obligations with respect to which such Domestic Note Party is the primary obligor)). Each Domestic Note Party, jointly and severally with each other Note Party, hereby agrees that if any other Note Party shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Domestic Note Party will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

91

Section 6.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Domestic Note Parties under Section 6.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (except for Payment in Full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any of the Domestic Note Parties with respect to its respective guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Domestic Note Parties, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Note Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iii) the release of any other Note Party pursuant to Section 6.08 or the applicable provisions of the Foreign Guaranty;

(iv) any renewal, extension or acceleration of, or any increase in the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, the Note Documents;

(v) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, delay in enforcement, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under any Note Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(vi) any settlement, compromise, release, or discharge of, or acceptance or refusal of any offer of payment or performance with respect to, or any substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any subordination of the Guaranteed Obligations to any other obligations;

(vii) the validity, perfection, non-perfection or lapse in perfection, priority or avoidance of any security interest or lien, the release of any or all collateral securing, or purporting to secure, the Guaranteed Obligations or any other impairment of such collateral;

(viii) any exercise of remedies with respect to any security for the Guaranteed Obligations (including, without limitation, any collateral, including the Collateral securing or purporting to secure any of the Guaranteed Obligations) at such time and in such order and in such manner as the Note Agent and the Secured Parties may decide and whether or not every aspect thereof is commercially reasonable and whether or not such action constitutes an election of remedies and even if such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy that any Domestic Note Party would otherwise have and without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provisions hereof, each Domestic Note Party hereby expressly waives any and all benefits which might otherwise be available to such Domestic Note Party as a surety under applicable law, including, without limitation, California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2939, 2845, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2855, 2899 and 3433, and in the event that Nevada law applies to this Agreement or any portion hereof, Guarantors that are Domestic Note Parties, and each of them, hereby waive the provisions of Section 40.430 of the Nevada Revised Statutes; or

92

(ix) any other circumstance whatsoever which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Domestic Note Party as a guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Domestic Note Party as a guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or of such Domestic Note Party under the guarantee contained in this Article VI or of any security interest granted by any Domestic Note Party in its capacity as a guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether in a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or under any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, or similar law, or in any other instance.

The Domestic Note Parties hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest, marshaling and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party thereof exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Note Party under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Domestic Note Parties waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party thereof upon this guarantee or acceptance of this guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this guarantee, and all dealings between the Domestic Note Parties and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this guarantee. This guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Domestic Note Parties hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against any Note Party or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Domestic Note Parties and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.02 shall permit amendments to the Note Documents or an acceleration of the Obligations other than as set forth in the Note Documents.

Section 6.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Domestic Note Parties under this Article VI shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Note Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. The Domestic Note Parties agree, jointly and severally with each other Note Party, that they will indemnify each Secured Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Secured Party in connection with such rescission, avoidance or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith (other than in the case of the Note Agent or Collateral Agent) or willful misconduct of, or (other than in the case of the Note Agent or Collateral Agent) material breach by, such Secured Party.

93

Section 6.04 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Domestic Note Party hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations it shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 6.01, whether by subrogation, contribution or otherwise, against any Note Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of any Note Party now or hereafter owing to any Domestic Note Party by reason of any payment by such Domestic Note Party under the Guarantee in this Article VI is hereby subordinated to the prior Payment in Full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Domestic Note Party agrees that it will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of any other Note Party to such Domestic Note Party until the Obligations shall have been Paid in Full in cash. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and any amounts are paid to the Domestic Note Parties in violation of the foregoing limitation, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Domestic Note Party as trustee for the Secured Parties and be paid over to the Note Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of such Domestic Note Party under the other provisions of the guaranty contained herein.

Section 6.05 Remedies. The Domestic Note Parties jointly and severally agree that, as between the Note Parties and the Purchasers, the obligations of any Note Party under this Agreement and the Notes may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article XI (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article XI) for purposes of Section 6.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable arising under the Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other law providing for protection from creditors) as against such other Note Parties and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Issuer) shall forthwith become due and payable by the other Domestic Note Parties for purposes of Section 6.01.

Section 6.06 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article VI is a continuing guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 6.07 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Domestic Note Party under Section 6.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 6.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Domestic Note Party, any Secured Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

94

Section 6.08 Release of Guarantors If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Note Documents, (i) the Equity Interests of any Guarantor that is a Domestic Note Party are directly or indirectly sold or otherwise transferred such that such Guarantor no longer constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary (each, a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a Person or Persons, none of which is the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) any Restricted Subsidiary is designated as or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Guarantor that is a Domestic Note Party shall not be released from its Guarantee hereunder solely due to becoming an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (c)(iii) of the definition thereof, or an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (d) of the definition thereof due to a disposition of less than all of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor to an Affiliate of any Note Party, unless, in each case, such transaction was entered into for a bona fide business purpose (as defined below)) or (iii) any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Note Party and is merged, consolidated, liquidated or dissolved in accordance with Section 10.05 and is not the surviving entity of such transaction (each, a “Liquidated Subsidiary”), such Transferred Guarantor, Excluded Subsidiary or Liquidated Subsidiary, as applicable, upon (A) the consummation of such sale, transfer, designation or such Person becoming an Excluded Subsidiary or merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation, as applicable, and (B) the substantially concurrent release of such Transferred Guarantor, Excluded Subsidiary or Liquidated Subsidiary from its guarantee of obligations under the First Lien Credit Documents, shall (without limiting the obligations of any surviving or successor entity to any Liquidated Subsidiary to become or remain a Guarantor) be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 13.03), the Notes and the other Note Documents, and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document, and the pledge of Equity Interests in any Transferred Guarantor or any Unrestricted Subsidiary to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents shall be automatically released, and, so long as the Issuer shall have provided the Agents such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request (including a certification that the applicable transaction has been consummated in compliance with this Agreement and the other Note Documents), the Collateral Agent shall, at the expense of the Note Parties, take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor to effect and evidence each release described in this Section 6.08 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents and this Agreement (and the Purchasers hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to rely on the certifications provided by the Issuer in performing its obligations under this Section 6.08). For the purposes of this Section 6.08, “bona fide business purpose” shall mean any bona fide business purpose (as determined by the Issuer in good faith), including (I) any accommodations for the ongoing and future development of any casino (including the Chicago Casino) or any Gaming/Racing Facility, (II) the sale or issuance (including any issuance at less than fair market value) of any Equity Interests or equity-linked securities to bona fide third parties in connection with obtaining or retaining a Gaming/Racing License, or the right or ability to purchase, build, develop, manage or operate a casino or other gaming property (including any Gaming/Racing Facility) for regulatory or political reasons (as determined by the Issuer in good faith), (III) the incurrence of Indebtedness or other financing or the sale of minority interests for licensing, acquisition, project financing or development purposes, and the designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiaries in connection therewith, and (IV) bona fide Joint Ventures with Persons that are not the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 6.09 [Reserved].

Section 6.10 Right of Contribution. Each Domestic Note Party hereby agrees that to the extent that a Note Party (each, a “Funding Note Party”) shall have paid more than its Fair Share (as defined below) of any payment made hereunder, such Domestic Note Party shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Note Party hereunder which has not paid its Fair Share of such payment. Each Domestic Note Party’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6.04. The provisions of this Section 6.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Domestic Note Party to the Secured Parties, and each Domestic Note Party shall remain liable to the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Domestic Note Party hereunder. “Fair Share” shall mean, with respect to a Note Party as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (A) the Adjusted Maximum Amount (as defined below) with respect to such Note Party to (B) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Amounts with respect to all Note Parties multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Note Parties under this Article VI in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. “Adjusted Maximum Amount” shall mean, with respect to a Note Party as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Note Party under this Article VI; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the Adjusted Maximum Amount with respect to any Note Party for purposes of this Section 6.10, any assets or liabilities of such Note Party arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Note Party. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Note Party.

Section 8.05 Action. The Issuer and each Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other organizational power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each Note Document to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions herein and therein contemplated; the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer and each Guarantor of each Note Document to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or other organizational action on its part; and this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Note Party and constitutes, and each of the Note Documents to which it is a party when executed and delivered by such Note Party will constitute, its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against each Note Party, as applicable, in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general applicability from time to time in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies and (b) the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

100

Section 8.07 ERISA, Foreign Employee Benefit Matters and Labor Matters.

(a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 8.07, as of the Closing Date, no ERISA Entity maintains or contributes to any Pension Plan. Each Company is in compliance with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan (other than to the extent such failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). The aggregate liabilities of any ERISA Entity to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each Foreign Plan is in compliance with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such Foreign Plan, other than to the extent such failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan, except to the extent that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan that is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year of the Issuer or Subsidiary, as applicable, on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan, and for each Foreign Plan that is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued, in each case, except to the extent that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer, threatened against the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to any Foreign Plan that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) there are no strikes or other labor disputes against the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of the Issuer, threatened and (ii) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable loan dealing with such matters.

Section 8.08 Taxes. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) all Tax returns, statements, reports and forms or other documents (including estimated Tax or information returns and including any required, related or supporting information) (collectively, the “Tax Returns”) required to be filed with any taxing authority by, or with respect to, the Issuer and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries have been timely filed in accordance with all applicable Laws and each Tax Return is accurate and complete; and (ii) the Issuer and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries has timely paid all Taxes shown as due and payable on Tax Returns that have been so filed or that are otherwise due and payable (including in its capacity as a withholding agent), other than Taxes which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any indemnity with respect to such Taxes provided by a third party to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) have been provided in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Issuer nor any of the Restricted Subsidiaries has received written notice of any proposed or pending Tax assessment, audit or deficiency against the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Note Party is party to any tax sharing agreement (other than the Tax Sharing Agreement).

101

Section 8.09 Investment Company Act. Neither the Issuer nor any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is an “investment company,” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” required to be regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Section 8.10 Environmental Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 8.10 or as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries and each of their businesses, operations and Real Property is in compliance with, and each has no liability under any Environmental Law; (ii) each of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries has obtained, maintained and complied with all Permits required for, the conduct of their businesses and operations, and the ownership, operation and use of their assets, all as currently conducted, under any Environmental Law, all such Permits are valid and in good standing and, under the currently effective business plans of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, no expenditures or operational adjustments are currently reasonably expected to be required in order to renew or modify such Permits; (iii) there has been no Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Material on, at, under or from any real property or facility presently or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, formerly owned, leased, operated or used for waste disposal by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their respective predecessors in interest that, in any of these situations, would reasonably be expected to result in liability to the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries under any Environmental Law; (iv) there is no Environmental Action pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened, against the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, including any Environmental Action relating either to the operations of the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries or to Real Property currently or formerly owned, leased, operated or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, used for waste disposal by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; (v) none of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is obligated to perform any action or otherwise incur any expense under any Environmental Law pursuant to any legally binding order, decree, judgment or agreement by which it is bound or has assumed by contract or agreement, and none of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is conducting or financing any Response Action pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect to any location; (vi) to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, no circumstances exist that would reasonably be expected to (a) form the basis of an Environmental Action against the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their Real Property, facilities or assets or (b) cause any such Real Property, facilities or assets to be subject to any restriction on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any Environmental Law and (vii) no Lien has been recorded or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened under any Environmental Law with respect to any Real Property or other assets of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 8.11 Use of Proceeds.

(a) The Issuer will use the proceeds of the Closing Date Notes issued on the Closing Date to fund a portion of the Closing Date Shareholder Payment, the Queen Refinancing and/or the Transaction Costs.

(b) Neither the Issuer nor any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of any Notes will be used directly or indirectly and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for such purpose or to refund Indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose or for any other purpose, in each case, that entails a violation of, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X. The pledge of any Equity Interests by any Note Party pursuant to the U.S. Security Agreement does not violate such regulations.

All of the assets and Property owned by, leased to or used by the Issuer and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries in its respective businesses are in good operating condition and repair in all material respects (ordinary wear and tear and casualty and force majeure excepted) except in each case where the failure of such asset to meet such requirements would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.14 Security Interest; Etc.

(a) Subject to applicable Gaming/Racing Laws, the Security Documents, once executed and delivered, will create, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Obligations, a valid and enforceable security interest in and Lien upon all of the Collateral (subject to any applicable provisions set forth herein or in the Agreed Security Principles or the Security Documents with respect to limitations or exclusions from the requirement to perfect the security interests and Liens on the collateral described therein), and (i) with respect to each Domestic Note Party, upon (x) filing of financing statements in the offices of the Secretaries of State of such Domestic Note Party’s jurisdiction of organization or formation or recording, registering or taking such other actions as may be necessary with the appropriate Governmental Authorities (including payment of applicable filing and recording taxes) and (y) the taking of possession or control by the Applicable Collateral Agent of the Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control which possession or control shall be given to the Applicable Collateral Agent to the extent possession or control by the Applicable Collateral Agent is required by the U.S. Security Agreement and (ii), with respect to each Foreign Note Party and each other grantor of any Collateral pursuant to any Foreign Security Document, upon taking of the actions contemplated by the applicable Security Documents, such security interest shall be a perfected security interest in and Lien upon all of the Collateral (subject to any applicable provisions set forth herein or in the Security Documents with respect to limitations or exclusions from the requirement to perfect the security interests and Liens on the collateral described therein) superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons and subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens.

103

(b) Each Ship Mortgage, once executed and delivered by a Domestic Note Party, will create, upon filing and recording in the National Vessel Documentation Center of the United States Coast Guard, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable preferred mortgage upon the applicable Mortgaged Vessel under Chapter 313 of Title 46 of the United States Code, subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens.

Notwithstanding anything herein (including this Section 8.14) or in any other Note Document to the contrary, neither the Issuer nor any other Note Party makes any representation or warranty as to (A) the effects of perfection or non-perfection, the priority or the enforceability of any pledge of or security interest in any Equity Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary other than a Foreign Note Party, or as to the rights and remedies of the Agents or any Purchaser with respect thereto, under foreign Law or (B) the pledge or creation of any security interest, or the effects of perfection or non-perfection, the priority or the enforceability of any pledge of or security interest to the extent such pledge, security interest, perfection or priority is not required pursuant to this Agreement or any other Note Document.

Section 8.15 Licenses and Permits. The Issuer and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries hold all material governmental permits, licenses, franchises, certificates, waivers, authorizations, consents and approvals (including Gaming/Racing Licenses) necessary for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to own, lease, and operate their respective Properties and to operate their respective businesses as now being conducted (collectively, the “Permits”), except for Permits the failure of which to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Permits has been modified in any way since the Closing Date in a manner that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All Permits are in full force and effect except where the failure to be in full force and effect would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Issuer nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has received written notice that any Gaming/Racing Authority has commenced proceedings to suspend, revoke or not renew any such Permits where such suspensions, revocations or failure to renew would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.16 Disclosure. The information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of any Note Party to any Secured Party prior to the Closing Date in connection with this Agreement and the other Note Documents, but in each case excluding all projections and general industry or economic data, when taken as a whole and giving effect to all supplements and updates, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading. The pro forma financial information furnished to any Purchaser prior to the Closing Date was prepared in good faith based on assumptions believed by the Issuer to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Purchasers that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount and no Note Party, however, makes any representation as to the ability of any Company to achieve the results set forth in any such projections.

Section 8.17 Solvency. As of the Closing Date, immediately following the consummation of the Transactions occurring on the Closing Date, the Issuer (on a consolidated basis with its Restricted Subsidiaries) is and will be Solvent (after giving effect to Section 6.07).

No claim is pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer, threatened to the effect that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries infringes or conflicts with the asserted rights of any other Person under any Intellectual Property, except for such claims that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No claim is pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Issuer, threatened to the effect that any such Intellectual Property owned or licensed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries otherwise has the right to use is invalid or unenforceable, except for such claims that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

As of the Closing Date, a true, correct and complete copy (including any amendments, modifications, supplements or waivers) of each of the Material Gaming/Racing Agreements has been furnished to the Note Agent and all such Contractual Obligations are in full force and effect.

The Issuer and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries maintain all insurance required by Flood Insurance Laws (but shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be required to obtain insurance with respect to wind and flood damage unless and to the extent required by such Flood Insurance Laws).

Section 8.23 Real Estate.

In addition, with respect to any Indebtedness that was permitted to be incurred hereunder on the date of such incurrence, any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness shall also be permitted hereunder after the date of such incurrence.

128

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.01, if and for so long as the Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, an incurrence of any Indebtedness by an Interactive Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by one of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Non-Note Party.

(o) there shall have occurred a License Revocation by any Gaming/Racing Authority, which License Revocation (in the aggregate with any other License Revocations then in existence) relates to operations of the Issuer and/or the Restricted Subsidiaries that in the most recent Test Period accounted for ten percent (10%) or more of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (it being agreed that any License Revocation by a Rhode Island Gaming/Racing Authority shall be deemed to relate to operations accounting for greater than the 10% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries); provided, however, that such License Revocation continues for at least forty-five (45) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of cessation of the affected operations as a result of such License Revocation and (y) the date that none of the Issuer, nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries nor the Purchasers receive the net cash flows generated by any such operations; or

then, and in every such event (other than an event described in Section 11.01(g) or 11.01(h) with respect to the Issuer), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Note Agent, at the request of the Required Purchasers, shall, by notice to the Issuer, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments, (ii) declare the Notes then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Notes so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities and Obligations of the Issuer accrued hereunder and under any other Note Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Issuer, anything contained herein or in any other Note Document to the contrary notwithstanding and (iii) exercise any other right or remedy provided under the Note Documents or at law or in equity; and in any event described in Section 11.01(g) or 11.01(h) with respect to the Issuer, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Notes then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities and Obligations of the Issuer accrued hereunder and under any other Note Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Issuer, anything contained herein or in any other Note Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

150

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity for any reason following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including, without limitation, upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 11.01(g) or 11.01(h)) or the acceleration of claims by operation of law (a “Make-Whole Event”)), all fees, expenses and premiums (including any Redemption Premium) as of the date such Notes are accelerated or become due will also be due and payable as if the Issuer had voluntarily redeemed such Notes (the “Make-Whole Amount”), and such Make-Whole Amount shall also be due and payable as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations. Any Make-Whole Amount payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by the Purchasers as the result of the early termination and acceleration of the Obligations and the Issuer agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Make-Whole Amount shall also be payable in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise), deed in lieu of foreclosure, in connection with any restructuring, reorganization or compromise of the Notes or the Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructuring or arrangement in any insolvency proceeding, or by any other means following the occurrence of a Make-Whole Event. THE ISSUER AND EACH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuer and each Guarantor expressly agrees (to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Make-Whole Amount is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Make-Whole Amount shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Purchasers and the Issuer and each Guarantor giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Make-Whole Amount; and (D) the Issuer and each Guarantor shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each of the Issuer and Guarantors expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Make-Whole Amount to the Purchasers as herein described is a material inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required by the terms of any Specified Gaming/Racing Lease, (a) the Note Agent shall provide any Landlord under such Gaming/Racing Lease with copies of notices issued by the Note Agent or the Purchasers of any event or occurrence under the Note Documents that enables or permits the Purchasers (or the Note Agent) to accelerate the maturity of the Indebtedness outstanding under the Note Documents and (b) in the event of a default by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the performance of any of their respective Obligations under any of the Note Documents, including, without limitation, any default in the payment of any sums payable under any such agreement, then, in each and every such case, subject to applicable Gaming/Racing Laws and the terms of such Gaming/Racing Lease, such Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure or remedy the default or defaults or cause the default or defaults to be cured or remedied (to the extent susceptible to cure or remedy) prior to the end of any applicable notice and cure periods set forth in such Note Documents, and any such tender of payment or performance by such Landlord shall be accepted by the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers and shall constitute payment and/or performance by the applicable Company for purposes of the Note Documents.

151

Article XII
AGENTS

Section 12.01 Appointment. Each of the Purchasers hereby irrevocably appoints Alter Domus (US) LLC to act on its behalf as Note Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Note Documents (including as “trustee”, “security trustee” or “mortgage trustee” under the Ship Mortgages), and authorizes the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including, in accordance with regulatory requirements of any Gaming/Racing Authority consistent with the intents and purposes of this Agreement and the other Note Documents. Each of the Purchasers hereby irrevocably authorizes each of the Agents (other than the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent) to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Note Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Purchasers, and neither the Issuer nor any other Note Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this Article XII, except to the extent set forth in Section 12.06. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Note Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. Each reference in this Article XII to Collateral Agent shall include Collateral Agent in its capacity as “trustee” or “mortgage trustee” under the Ship Mortgages.

Section 12.02 Rights as a Purchaser. Any Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Purchaser (if applicable) as any other Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Purchaser” or “Purchasers” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include (if applicable) the Person serving as such Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Issuer or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Purchasers.

Section 12.03 Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents, and each Agent’s duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:

(a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties with respect to any Note Party, any Purchaser or any other Person, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Note Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Note Documents), provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Note Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Purchaser in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any of the Issuer or any of its respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

153

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Purchasers (or, such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be necessary, or as the Note Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the applicable Note Document) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to such Agent by the Issuer or a Purchaser.

No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Note Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VII or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent or (vi) the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, creation, validity, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Note Party in connection therewith, nor shall any Agent be responsible or liable to the Purchasers for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Nothing in this Agreement or any other Note Document shall require any Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under the Note Documents.

The Agents shall have no obligation for (a) perfecting, maintaining, monitoring, preserving or protecting the security interest or Lien granted under this Agreement, any other Note Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby; (b) the filing, re-filing, recording, re-recording, or continuing of any document, financing statement, mortgage, assignment, notice, instrument of further assurance, or other instrument in any public office at any time or times; or (c) providing, maintaining, monitoring, or preserving insurance on or the payment of taxes with respect to any Collateral.

No Agent shall be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Note Document arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority; acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility.

The Note Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Purchasers or the provisions set forth in the second proviso to the first sentence of Section 13.05(b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Note Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Purchaser or prospective Purchaser is a Disqualified ‎Purchaser or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment of Notes or Commitments, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Purchaser. The Note Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability for monitoring the list or identities of, or enforcing provisions relating to compliance by Affiliated Purchaser with the terms hereof relating to Affiliated Purchasers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Note Agent shall not be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to compliance by Affiliated Purchasers with the terms hereof relating to Affiliated Purchasers.

154

Each of the Purchasers (and each Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) acknowledges that the Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent may act as the representative of other classes of indebtedness under the Closing Date Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 12.04 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the issuance and purchase of any Notes that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Purchaser, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Purchaser unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Purchaser prior to the purchase of such Notes. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Issuer), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Note Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or group of Purchasers as may be expressly required hereby or in any other Note Document in any instance) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Purchasers against any and all fees, costs, losses, liabilities and expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Note Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or group of Purchasers as may be expressly required hereby or in any other Note Document in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Purchasers. In no event shall any Agent be required to take any action (or omit to take any action) that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose any Agent to liability, or that is contrary to the terms of any Note Document or applicable Law.

Section 12.05 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Note Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article XII shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the arrangement of the securities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that an Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 12.06 Resignation of Note Agent and Collateral Agent

(a) The Note Agent and the Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of their resignation to the Purchasers and the Issuer. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Purchasers shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Issuer (unless an Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(b) or 11.01(c) or an Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(g) or 11.01(h) with respect to the Issuer has occurred and is continuing) to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Purchasers and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, gives notice of their resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Purchasers and the Issuer (unless an Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(b) or 11.01(c) or an Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(g) or 11.01(h) with respect to the Issuer has occurred and is continuing)) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

155

(b) If the Person serving as Note Agent and Collateral Agent is a Defaulting Purchaser pursuant to clauses (iii) or (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Purchasers may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Issuer and such Person remove such Person as Note Agent and Collateral Agent and, in consultation with the Issuer, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Purchasers and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Purchasers) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Note Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under any of the Note Documents, the retiring or removed Note Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Note Agent and Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Note Agent or Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Note Agent or Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Secured Party directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Purchasers appoint a successor Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Note Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Note Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Note Agent or Collateral Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Note Agent and Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Note Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 12.06). The fees payable by the Issuer to a successor Note Agent and Collateral Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and such successor. After the retiring or removed Note Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Note Documents, the provisions of this Article XII and Section 13.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Note Agent and Collateral Agent, their sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Note Agent and Collateral Agent was acting as Note Agent or Collateral Agent.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) To the extent required by applicable Gaming/Racing Laws or the conditions of any Gaming/Racing License, the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent shall notify the applicable Gaming/Racing Authorities of any change in the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent. The Issuer shall provide advice and assistance to the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent in making such notifications.

156

Section 12.07 Nonreliance on Agents and Other Purchasers.

(a) Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Note Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Purchaser acknowledges that in connection with Issuer Note Purchases, (i) the Issuer may purchase or acquire Notes hereunder from the Purchasers from time to time, subject to the restrictions set forth in the definition of Eligible Assignee and in Section 13.05(d), (ii) the Issuer currently may have, and later may come into possession of, information regarding such Notes or the Note Parties hereunder that is not known to such Purchaser and that may be material to a decision by such Purchaser to enter into an assignment of such Notes hereunder (“Excluded Information”), (iii) such Purchaser has independently and without reliance on any other party made such Purchaser’s own analysis and determined to enter into an assignment of such Notes and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby notwithstanding such Purchaser’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (iv) the Issuer shall have no liability to such Purchaser, and such Purchaser hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Purchaser may have against the Issuer, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information; provided, however, that the Excluded Information shall not and does not affect the truth or accuracy of the representations or warranties of the Issuer in the Standard Terms and Conditions set forth in the applicable assignment agreement. Each Purchaser further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Note Agent or the other Purchasers hereunder.

Section 12.08 Indemnification. The Purchasers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent Related Party (in its capacity as such) ratably according with their respective pro rata shares (determined at such time such indemnification is sought (or, if the Commitments have terminated and all Notes have been redeemed in full, as determined immediately prior to such termination and redemption)) (with such pro rata shares to be determined as if there are no Defaulting Purchasers), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Related Party in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Note Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Agent Related Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no Purchaser shall be liable to any Agent Related Party for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Related Party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision); provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be required by the Purchasers Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Purchaser shall reimburse each Agent upon demand for its pro rata share (determined at such time such reimbursement is sought (or, if the Commitments have terminated and all Notes have been redeemed in full, as determined immediately prior to such termination and redemption)) (with such pro rata shares to be determined as if there are no Defaulting Purchasers) of any documented out-of-pocket costs or expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) actually incurred by any Agent Related Person in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Note Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein; provided that such reimbursement by the Purchasers shall not affect the Issuer’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. For purposes of this Section 12.08, a Purchaser’s “pro rata share” shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (x) the aggregate unused Commitments of such Purchaser at such time and (y) aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes of such Purchaser at such time, and the denominator of which is the sum of the (x) the aggregate outstanding unused Commitments of all Purchasers at such time and (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by all Purchasers at such time. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Note Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser under any Note Document against any amount due to any Agent under this Section 12.08. The agreements in this Section 12.08 shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or removal of the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent.

157

Section 12.09 No Other Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lead Arranger shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Purchaser hereunder.

Section 12.10 Holders. The Note Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until an assignment thereof has been recorded in the Register pursuant to Section 2.08(c). Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or indorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

Section 12.11 Note Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Note Party, the Note Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Note shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Note Agent shall have made any demand on the Issuer) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties under Sections 2.05 and 13.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

158

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Purchaser (and each Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) to make such payments to the Note Agent and, in the event that the Note Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Parties, to pay to the Note Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Note Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Note Agent under Sections 2.05 and 13.03.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Note Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Secured Party or to authorize the Note Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Secured Party in any such proceeding.

Section 12.12 Collateral Matters.

(a) Each Purchaser (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Secured Parties and to hold and enforce the Liens on the Collateral on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Secured Party, from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents. The Purchasers (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby authorize Collateral Agent to take the actions set forth in Section 13.04(g). Upon request by the Note Agent at any time, the Purchasers will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.12.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Purchasers, the other Secured Parties or any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Note Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the applicable Security Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in Section 12.01 or in this Section 12.12 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s interest as a Secured Party and that Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Purchasers or the other Secured Parties, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Section 12.13 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Law, an Agent may withhold from any payment to any Purchaser, an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 5.06, each Purchaser shall indemnify the relevant Agent, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten (10) calendar days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Purchaser for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Purchaser failed to notify the Note Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Purchaser by the Note Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Note Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Note Document or otherwise payable by the Note Agent to such Purchaser from any other source against any amount due the Note Agent under this Section 12.13. The agreements in this Section 12.13 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Note Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Purchaser, and the redemption, satisfaction or discharge of any Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

159

Section 12.16 Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Note Agent notifies a Purchaser, Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Secured Party (any such Purchaser, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Note Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Note Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Purchaser, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Note Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Note Agent, and such Purchaser or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Note Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Note Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Note Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Note Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Purchaser, Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Secured Party, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption (whether received as a payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Note Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption sent by the Note Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption sent by the Note Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Purchaser, Secured Party or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Note Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption; and

161

(ii) such Purchaser or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Note Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment, repayment or redemption, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Note Agent pursuant to this Section 12.16(b)(ii).

(c) Each Purchaser or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Note Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser or Secured Party under any Note Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Note Agent to such Purchaser or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Note Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Note Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Note Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Purchaser or Secured Party, as the case may be) under the Note Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge, redeem or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Issuer or any other Note Party, an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge, redeem or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Issuer; provided that this Section 12.16 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Issuer or any other Note Party relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Note Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Note Agent from the Issuer or any other Note Party for the purpose of the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the occurrence of an Erroneous Payment (or the existence of any Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights or other rights of the Note Agent in respect of an Erroneous Payment) result in the Note Agent becoming, or been deemed to be, a Purchaser hereunder or the holder of any Notes hereunder.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Note Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Note Agent, any transfer of rights or Obligations by, or the replacement of, a Purchaser, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, redemption, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Note Document.

The Issuer shall indemnify each Indemnitee from all Losses resulting from the reliance by such Indemnitee on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Issuer (except to the extent resulting from such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence, bad faith (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) or willful misconduct or (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) material breach of any Note Document) and believed by such Indemnitee in good faith to be genuine.

Section 13.03 Expenses, Indemnification, Etc.

(a) The Note Parties, jointly and severally, agree to pay or reimburse:

(i) The Note Agent, the Collateral Agent and Purchasers for all of their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (limited to the reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of (x) one primary counsel to the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent, taken as a whole, and one special gaming and local counsel to the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent (taken as a whole) in each applicable jurisdiction and (y) Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, counsel to the Purchasers (taken as a whole), and one special gaming and local counsel to the Purchasers (taken as a whole) in each applicable jurisdiction) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Note Documents and the issuance of the Notes hereunder and (2) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any modification, supplement, amendment or waiver of any of the terms of any Note Document (whether or not consummated or effective) requested by the Note Parties;

165

(b) The Note Parties, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify each Agent, each Purchaser and their respective Affiliates and their and their respective Affiliates’, directors, trustees, officers, employees, representatives, advisors, partners and agents (each, an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them directly or indirectly arising out of or by reason of or relating to the negotiation, execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of any Note Document, any of the transactions contemplated by the Note Documents (including the Transactions), any breach by any Note Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in any Note Document in connection with any of the Transactions, the use or proposed use of any of the proceeds of the Notes or the use of any collateral security for the Obligations (including the exercise by any Agent or Purchaser of the rights and remedies or any power of attorney with respect thereto or any action or inaction in respect thereof), including all amounts payable by any Purchaser pursuant to Section 12.08 or any actual or threatened Proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any such Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by you, your equity holders, creditors or any other third party or by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE, but excluding (i) any such Losses arising from the gross negligence, bad faith (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) or willful misconduct or (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) material breach of any Note Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Indemnified Persons (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) and (ii) any such Losses relating to any dispute between and among Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission by any Company or any of their respective Affiliates (other than any claims against the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lead Arranger, in each case, acting in such capacities or fulfilling such roles); provided, however, that this Section 13.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. For purposes of this Section 13.03(b), a “Related Indemnified Person” of an Indemnitee shall mean (1) any controlling person or controlled affiliate of such Indemnitee, (2) the respective directors, officers, trustees, partners or employees of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates and (3) the respective agents or advisors of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates, in the case of this clause (3), acting at the instructions of such Indemnitee, controlling person or such controlled Affiliate; provided that each reference to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person in this sentence pertains to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person involved in the performance of the Indemnitee’s obligations under the facilities.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Note Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify each Agent, each Purchaser and each other Indemnitee from, and hold each Agent, each Purchaser and each other Indemnitee harmless against, any Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them arising under any Environmental Law as a result of (i) the past, present or future operations of any Company (or any predecessor-in-interest to any Company), (ii) the past, present or future condition of any site or facility owned, operated, leased or used at any time by any Company (or any such predecessor-in-interest) to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to (A) the parties’ relationship under the Note Documents (including the exercise of remedies thereunder); (B) any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility; or (C) any aspect of the respective business or operations of any Company (or predecessor-in-interest), and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, or (iii) any presence, Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any such site or facility to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to (A) the parties’ relationship under the Note Documents (including the exercise of remedies thereunder); (B) any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility; or (C) any aspect of the respective business or operations of any Company (or predecessor-in-interest), and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, excluding any such Release or threatened Release that shall first occur after any Agent or Purchaser takes possession of any such site or facility following the exercise by such Agent or Purchaser, as the case may be, of any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under any of the Security Documents; provided, however, that the indemnity hereunder shall be subject to the exclusions from indemnification set forth in the preceding sentence or otherwise in Section 13.03(b).

166

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 13.03 or any other provision of any Note Document providing for indemnification is unenforceable because it is violative of any Law or public policy or otherwise, the Note Parties, jointly and severally, shall contribute the maximum portion that each of them is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by any of the Persons indemnified hereunder.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no party hereto shall assert, and the parties hereto hereby waive, any claim against any Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Note or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Note Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth in this Section 13.03 (including the Note Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to indemnify the Indemnitees for indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage that are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder). No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Note Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) or willful misconduct or (other than in the case of the Agent Related Parties) material breach of any Note Document by such Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 13.04 Amendments and Waiver.

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Note Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, modified, changed or waived, unless such amendment, modification, change or waiver is in writing signed by each of the Note Parties that is party thereto and the Required Purchasers, and acknowledged by the Note Agent (or the Note Agent with the consent of the Required Purchasers); provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, change or waiver shall (and any such amendment, modification, change or waiver set forth below in clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section 13.04(a) shall only require the approval of the Agents and/or Purchasers whose consent is required therefor pursuant to such clauses):

(i) extend the date for any scheduled payment of principal on any Note, or extend the termination date of any of the Commitments, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest (other than as a result of any waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or fees thereon, or forgive or reduce the principal amount thereof, without the consent of each Purchaser directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any Default or Event of Default or of any mandatory redemption of the Notes shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest and any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i), notwithstanding the fact that such amendment or modification actually results in such a reduction);

167

(ii) release (x) all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as provided in this Agreement or the Security Documents) under all the Security Documents or (y) all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guarantees (except as expressly provided in this Agreement), without the consent of each Purchaser;

(iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of “Required Purchasers” or “Required Tranche Purchasers” or otherwise amend the definition of “Required Purchasers” or “Required Tranche Purchasers” without the consent of each Purchaser (provided that, (x) no such consent shall be required for technical amendments with respect to additional issuances of notes (including Exchanged Notes) pursuant to this Agreement, and (y) with the consent of the Required Purchasers, additional issuances of notes pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Purchasers and/or Required Tranche Purchasers on substantially the same basis as the Notes and Commitments are included on the Closing Date);

(v) amend, modify, change or waive Section 4.02 or Section 4.07(b) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the consent of each Purchaser directly and adversely affected thereby (except for technical amendments with respect to additional issuances of notes (including Exchanged Notes) pursuant to this Agreement which afford the protections to such additional notes of the type provided to the Notes);

(vi) impose any greater restriction on the ability of any Purchaser under a Tranche to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of the Required Tranche Purchasers for such Tranche;

(vii) [reserved]; or

168

provided, further, that (x) any amendment or waiver to the Agent Fee Letter, or waiver of any rights or privileges thereunder, shall only require the consent of the parties thereto and (y) no such amendment, modification, change or waiver shall (A) increase the Commitments of any Purchaser over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Purchaser (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or a waiver of a mandatory redemption shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Purchaser), (B) [reserved], (C) [reserved], (D) without the consent of any applicable Agent, amend, modify, change or waive any provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of such Agent or (E) amend, modify, change or waive Section 2.10(b)(iii) in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of redemptions due to Purchasers holding Notes of one Tranche differently from the rights of Purchasers holding Notes of any other Tranche without the prior written consent of the Required Tranche Purchasers of each adversely affected Tranche (such consent being in lieu of the consent of the Required Purchasers required above in this Section 13.04(a)) (except for technical amendments with respect to additional issuances of notes pursuant to this Agreement (including Exchanged Notes) so that such additional notes may share in the application of redemptions with any Tranche of Notes); provided, however, the Required Purchasers may waive, in whole or in part, any redemption so long as the application, as between Tranches, of any portion of such redemption which is still required to be made is not altered. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Purchaser shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (x) the Commitment of such Defaulting Purchaser may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Purchaser, (y) the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of such Defaulting Purchaser’s Notes shall not be reduced or forgiven (other than as a result of any waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), nor shall the date for any scheduled payment of any such amounts be postponed, without the consent of such Defaulting Purchaser (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (y), notwithstanding the fact that such amendment or modification actually results in such a reduction) and (z) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Purchasers or each affected Purchaser that by its terms affects any Defaulting Purchaser more adversely than other affected Purchasers shall require the consent of such Defaulting Purchaser.

169

(b) If, (x) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, change or waiver of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement, the consent of the Required Purchasers (or in the case of a proposed amendment, modification, change or waiver affecting a particular Class or Tranche, the Purchasers holding a majority of the Notes and Commitments with respect to such Class or Tranche) is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Purchasers whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Issuer shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Purchasers whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (A) or (B) below, or (y) any Purchaser declines to consent to an extension of its Notes or Commitments under Section 2.13, the Issuer shall have the right, to either:

(A) replace each such non-consenting Purchaser or Purchasers (or, at the option of the Issuer, if such non-consenting Purchaser’s consent is required or requested, as applicable, with respect to a particular Class or Tranche of Notes (or related Commitments), to replace only the Classes or Tranches of Commitments and/or Notes of such non-consenting Purchaser with respect to which such Purchaser’s individual consent is required, or requested, as applicable (such Classes or Tranches, the “Affected Classes”)) with one or more Replacement Purchasers, so long as, at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Purchaser consents to the proposed amendment, modification, change or waiver; provided, further, that (i) at the time of any such replacement, the Replacement Purchaser shall enter into one or more Assignment Agreements (and with all fees payable pursuant to Section 13.05(b) to be paid by the Replacement Purchaser) pursuant to which the Replacement Purchaser shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Notes of the Replaced Purchaser (or, at the option of the Issuer if the respective Purchaser’s consent is required or requested with respect to less than all Classes or Tranches of Notes (or related Commitments), the Commitments and outstanding Notes of the Affected Classes), (ii) at the time of any replacement, the Replaced Purchaser shall receive an amount equal to the sum of (A) the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Notes of such Purchaser (other than any Notes not being acquired by the Replacement Purchaser), and (B) all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, fees and other amounts (including, without limitation, any Redemption Premium) owing to the Purchaser with respect to the Notes being so assigned and (iii) all obligations of Issuer owing to such Replaced Purchaser (other than those specifically described in clause (ii) above in respect of Replaced Purchasers for which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid, and other than those relating to Notes or Commitments not being acquired by the Replacement Purchaser), as applicable, shall be paid in full to such Replaced Purchaser, as applicable, concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, as applicable, and the receipt of any consents that would be required for an assignment of the subject Notes and Commitments to such Replacement Purchaser in accordance with Section 13.05, the Replacement Purchaser, if any, shall become a Purchaser hereunder and the Replaced Purchaser, as applicable, shall cease to constitute a Purchaser hereunder and be released of all its obligations as a Purchaser, except with respect to indemnification provisions applicable to such Purchaser under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Purchaser and, in the case of any Replaced Purchaser, except with respect to Notes and Commitments of such Replaced Purchaser not being acquired by the Replacement Purchaser; provided, that if the applicable Replaced Purchaser does not execute the Assignment Agreement within one (1) Business Day (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Note Agent) after the Issuer’s request, execution of such Assignment Agreement by the Replaced Purchaser shall not be required to effect such assignment; or

(B) terminate such non-consenting Purchaser’s Commitment and/or redeem Notes held by such Purchaser (or, if such non-consenting Purchaser’s consent is required or requested, as applicable, with respect to a particular Class or Tranche of Notes, the Commitment and Notes of the Affected Class), in either case, upon one (1) Business Day’s (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Note Agent) prior written notice to the Note Agent (which notice the Note Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Purchasers). Any such prepayment of the Notes or termination of the Commitments of such Purchaser shall be made together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Purchaser (including, without limitation any Redemption Premium) (or if the applicable consent requires or requests approval of all Purchasers of a particular Class or Tranche but not all Purchasers, then the Issuer shall terminate all Commitments and/or repay all Notes, in each case together with payment of all accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Purchaser (including, without limitation any Redemption Premium) under such Class or Tranche). Immediately upon any redemption of Notes by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 13.04(b)(B), such Notes redeemed or acquired pursuant hereto shall be cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold, assigned or participated out by the Issuer) for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Note Documents, including, but not limited to (A) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Purchasers under this Agreement or any other Note Document, (B) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Note Document, (C) the providing of any rights to the Issuer as a Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Note Document, and (D) the determination of Required Purchasers, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Note Document.

170

(c) The Note Agent and the Issuer may (without the consent of Purchasers) amend any Note Document to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the issuance, existence and terms of Other Notes and Exchanged Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, such amendment shall become effective without any further consent of any other party to such Note Document. In addition, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, the Note Agent, the Issuer and the Purchasers purchasing the relevant Refinancing Indebtedness may amend this Agreement to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Notes and Commitments subject thereto as Other Notes and/or Other Commitments). The Note Agent and the Issuer may effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Note Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Agent and the Issuer, to effect the terms of any Refinancing Amendment. The Note Agent and the Collateral Agent may enter into (i) amendments to this Agreement and the other Note Documents with the Issuer as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Notes and/or Commitments issued, converted or exchanged pursuant to Section 2.13 or issued pursuant to Sections 2.15, (ii) such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Note Agent and the Issuer in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with Section 2.13 or 2.15 and (iii) such technical amendments as may be necessary to establish separate tranches or sub-tranches if the terms of a portion (but not all) of an existing Tranche is amended in accordance with Section 13.04(a).

Each Purchaser (and each Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) agrees that it will be bound by, and that it will not take any action contrary to, the provisions of the Closing Date Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and, from and after the effectiveness thereof any Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, as if directly a party thereto. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the Secured Parties to extend credit to the Issuer, and the Secured Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the Closing Date Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any Second Line Intercreditor Agreement.

171

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the applicable Note Party or Note Parties and the Note Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Note Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Note Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, without the consent of any other Person, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional Property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any Property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law or to release any Collateral which is not required under the Security Documents.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Note Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (A) release any Lien granted to or held by the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon Payment in Full of the Obligations, (ii) upon the sale, transfer, distribution, contribution or other disposition of Collateral to the extent required pursuant to the second to last paragraph in Section 10.05 (and the Note Agent or the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Note Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry) to any Person other than a Note Party, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Purchasers (or all of the Purchasers to the extent required by Section 13.04(a)), (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee pursuant to Section 6.08, (v) constituting Equity Interests in or property of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (vi) subject to Liens permitted under Section 10.02(i) or Section 10.02(k), in each case, to the extent the documents governing such Liens do not permit such Collateral to secure the Obligations, or (vii) as otherwise may be provided herein or in the relevant Security Documents, and (B) consent to and enter into (and execute documents permitting the filing and recording, where appropriate) the grant of easements and covenants and subordination rights with respect to real property, conditions, restrictions and declarations on customary terms, and subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements on customary terms reasonably requested by the Issuer with respect to leases entered into by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent requested by the Issuer and not materially adverse to the interests of the Purchasers (including, without limitation, the Hard Rock SNDA (Retail Store Lease) and the Hard Rock SNDA (Restaurant Lease)) or, with respect to any Gaming/Racing Lease, to the extent requested by the applicable Landlord.

172

(h) If the terms of any Twin River Casino Amendment are more favorable to the First Lien Lenders than the terms hereof applicable to Purchasers holding the Closing Date Notes (excluding (A) any such terms applicable only to periods after the Closing Date Note Maturity Date and (B) any terms relating to any Excluded Amendment Fee), then prior to or substantially concurrently with entering into such Twin River Casino Amendment, this Agreement shall be amended to incorporate such more favorable terms herein for the benefit of the Closing Date Notes.

Section 13.05 Benefit of Agreement; Assignments.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) No Purchaser (or any Purchaser together with one or more other Purchasers) may assign all or any portion of its Commitments, Notes and related outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Notes and Obligations) hereunder, except to one or more Eligible Assignees (treating any fund that invests in notes and any other fund that invests in notes and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Assignee) with (x) the written consent of the Note Agent and (y) at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Issuer (which notice shall specify the amount of such Commitments, Notes and related outstanding Obligations and whether the assignee thereof is an Apollo Investor); provided that except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Purchaser’s Commitments and Notes at the time owing to it, the aggregate amount of the Commitments or Notes subject to such assignment shall not be less than $1.0 million; provided, further, that, except following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 11.01(b) or 11.01(c), 11.01(g) or 11.01(h), the Apollo Investors shall at all times retain exclusive control over the voting rights of not less than 50.1% of the Notes then outstanding. Each assignee shall become a party to this Agreement as a Purchaser by execution of an Assignment Agreement; provided that (I) the Note Agent shall, unless it otherwise agrees in its sole discretion, receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Purchaser, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, (II) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Note Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 2.08, and (III) such assignments may be made on a pro rata basis among Commitments and/or Notes (and related Obligations). Any assignment or transfer by a Purchaser of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.05, whether or not such assignment or transfer is reflected in the Register, shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Purchaser of a participation in such rights and obligations. To the extent of any assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 13.05(b), the assigning Purchaser shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Notes (provided that such assignment shall not release such Purchaser of any claims or liabilities that may exist against such Purchaser at the time of such assignment). At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.05(b) to a Person which is not already a Purchaser hereunder, the respective assignee Purchaser shall provide to the Issuer and the Note Agent (x) in accordance with Section 5.06(c) the appropriate IRS Forms (and, if applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) as described in Section 5.06(c), as applicable, (y) an Administrative Questionnaire and (z) all documentation and other information requested by Note Agent in connection with any Anti-Corruption Laws and anti-money laundering laws, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act and any applicable “know your customer” rules and regulations. In connection with the execution of an Assignment Agreement, the assigning Purchaser shall surrender its Note to the Issuer, and the Issuer (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Purchaser.

173

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Purchaser from pledging or assigning a security interest in its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Purchaser, including any pledge or assignment of a security interest to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority. No pledge pursuant to this Section 13.05(c) shall release the transferor Purchaser from any of its obligations hereunder or permit the pledgee to become a purchaser hereunder without otherwise complying with Section 13.05(b).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.05 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries may, but shall not be required to, purchase outstanding Notes pursuant to open market purchases, bilateral arrangements, privately negotiated arrangements, tender offers, exchange offers (including for cash, other property, Equity Interests or other Indebtedness), and other transactions with one or more Purchasers, subject solely to the following conditions:

(i) at the Trade Date of the applicable assignment, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;

(ii) immediately upon any Issuer Note Purchase, the Notes purchased pursuant thereto shall be cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold, assigned or participated out by the Issuer) for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Note Documents, including, but not limited to (A) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Purchasers under this Agreement or any other Note Document, (B) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Note Document, (C) the providing of any rights to the Issuer as a Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Note Document, and (D) the determination of Required Purchasers, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Note Document;

(iii) with respect to each Issuer Note Purchase, the Note Agent shall receive (x) if such Issuer Note Purchase is consummated pursuant to an open market purchase, a fully executed and completed Open Market Assignment and Assumption Agreement effecting the assignment thereof, and (y) if such Issuer Note Purchase is not consummated pursuant to an open market purchase, a fully executed and completed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment thereof;

174

(iv) [reserved]; and

(v) neither the Issuer nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to represent or warrant that they are not in possession of non-public information with respect to the Issuer and/or any Subsidiary thereof and/or their respective securities in connection with any purchase permitted by this Section 13.05(d).

The assignment fee set forth in Section 13.05(b) shall not be applicable to any Issuer Note Purchase consummated pursuant to this Section 13.05(d).

(e) Any Purchaser may at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to the Notes under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, an Affiliated Purchaser through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Purchasers on a pro rata basis or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis, in each case subject to the following limitations:

(i) the assigning Purchaser and the Affiliated Purchaser purchasing such Purchaser’s Notes shall execute and deliver to the Note Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J or any other form (including electronic documentation generated by an electronic platform) approved by the Note Agent (an “Affiliated Purchaser Assignment and Assumption”), together with in accordance with Section 5.06(c) the appropriate IRS Forms (and, if applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) as described in Section 5.06(c), as applicable, (y) an Administrative Questionnaire and (z) all documentation and other information requested by Note Agent in connection with any Anti-Corruption Laws and anti-money laundering laws, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act and any applicable “know your customer” rules and regulations;

(ii) Affiliated Purchasers will not (x) receive information provided solely to Purchasers by the Note Agent or any Purchaser and will not be permitted to receive notice nor attend or participate in conference calls or meetings attended solely by the Purchasers and the Note Agent, other than the right to receive notices of redemption and other administrative notices in respect of its Notes or Commitments required to be delivered to the Purchasers or (ii) challenge the Note Agent and the Purchasers’ attorney client privilege;

(iii) the aggregate principal amount of Notes held at any one time by Affiliated Purchasers shall not exceed 25% of the principal amount of all Notes at such time outstanding (determined after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous cancellations thereof) (such percentage, the “Affiliated Purchaser Cap”); provided that to the extent any assignment to an Affiliated Purchaser would result in the aggregate principal amount of all Notes held by Affiliated Purchasers exceeding the Affiliated Purchaser Cap, the assignment of such excess amount will be void ab initio;

(iv) as a condition to each assignment pursuant to this clause (e), the Note Agent shall have been provided a copy of the applicable Affiliated Purchaser Assignment and Assumption in connection with each assignment to an Affiliated Purchaser or a Person that upon effectiveness of such assignment would constitute an Affiliated Purchaser pursuant to which such Affiliated Purchaser shall waive any right to bring any action in connection with such Notes against the Note Agent, in its capacity as such;

175

(v) Affiliated Purchasers will not be required to represent or warrant that they are not in possession of non-public information with respect to the Issuer and/or any Subsidiary thereof and/or their respective securities in connection with any assignment permitted by this Section 13.05(e); and

(vi) any Notes acquired by any Affiliated Purchaser may (but shall not be required to), with the consent of the Issuer, be contributed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (it being understood that any such Notes shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be retired and cancelled promptly upon such contribution) and which may be converted into or exchanged for debt or equity securities that are permitted to be issued by such Person at such time; provided that upon any such cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes of the applicable Tranche shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so contributed and cancelled.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in Section 13.04 or the definition of “Required Purchasers” or “Required Tranche Purchasers,” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Purchasers or the Required Tranche Purchasers have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Note Document or any departure by any Note Party therefrom, (ii) subject to Section 13.05(g), consented (or not consented) to any plan of reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, (iii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Note Document, or (iv) directed or required the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Credit Document, no Affiliated Purchaser shall have any right to consent (or not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser to take (or refrain from taking) any such action and:

(i) all Notes held by any Affiliated Purchaser shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Purchasers or the Required Tranche Purchasers have taken any actions; and

(ii) all Notes held by any Affiliated Purchaser shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether all Purchasers have taken any action unless the action in question affects such Affiliated Purchaser in a disproportionately adverse manner than its effect on other Purchasers;

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of this Section 13.05(f), such Affiliated Purchaser shall have the right to vote (and the Notes held by such Affiliated Purchaser shall not be so disregarded) with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Note Document that (1) requires the vote of all Purchasers or all Purchasers and adversely affected thereby, as the case may be or (2) would affect any Affiliated Purchaser (in its capacity as a Purchaser) in a manner disproportionate to the effect on any Purchaser of the same Tranche that is not an Affiliated Purchaser or that would deprive such Affiliated Purchaser of its pro rata share of any payments to which it is entitled, provided, further, that no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Note Document shall (i) disproportionately affect such Affiliated Purchaser in its capacity as a Purchaser as compared to the other Purchasers of the same Tranche that are not Affiliated Purchasers, (ii) increase the Commitments or obligations of any Affiliated Purchaser, (iii) extend the due dates for payments of interest and scheduled maturity date of any Notes owed to any Affiliated Purchaser, (iv) reduce the amounts owing to any Affiliated Purchaser or (v) deprive any Affiliated Purchaser of its share of any payments which the Purchasers are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder in each case without the consent of such Affiliated Purchaser.

176

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Note Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Purchaser hereby agrees that and each Affiliated Purchaser Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against the Issuer or any other Note Party at a time when such Purchaser is an Affiliated Purchaser, such Affiliated Purchaser irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Note Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Purchaser with respect to the Notes held by such Affiliated Purchaser in any manner in the Note Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Note Agent instructs such Affiliated Purchaser to vote, in which case such Affiliated Purchaser shall vote with respect to the Notes held by it as the Note Agent directs; provided that such Affiliated Purchaser shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Note Agent) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated Purchaser in a disproportionately adverse manner to such Affiliated Purchaser than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Purchasers of the same Class that are not Affiliated Purchasers.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in Section 13.04 or the definition of “Required Purchasers” to the contrary, any Purchaser may at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Notes under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, a Debt Fund Affiliate through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Purchasers on a pro rata basis or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis, in each case, provided that, for purposes of determining whether the Required Purchasers have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Note Document or any departure by any Note Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Note Document or (iii) directed or required the Note Agent or any Purchaser to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Note Document, all Notes held by Debt Fund Affiliates may not account for more than 49.9% (pro rata among such Debt Fund Affiliates) of the Notes of consenting Purchasers included in determining whether the Required Purchasers have consented to any action pursuant to Section 13.04.

(i) [Reserved]

(j) [Reserved].

(k) (i) No assignment shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Purchaser as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Purchaser entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Issuer has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Purchaser for the purpose of such assignment). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Purchaser after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Purchaser”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Purchaser and (y) the execution by the Issuer of an Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Purchaser. Any assignment in violation of this clause (k)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (k) shall apply, and nothing in this subsection (k) shall limit any rights or remedies available to the Note Parties at law or in equity with respect to any Disqualified Purchaser and any Person that makes an assignment to a Disqualified Purchaser in violation of this clause (k)(i).

177

(i) If any assignment is made to any Disqualified Purchaser without the Issuer’s prior written consent in violation of clause (k)(i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Purchaser after the applicable Trade Date, the Issuer may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Purchaser and the Note Agent, (A) purchase or redeem the Notes held by such Defaulting Purchaser by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Purchaser paid to acquire such Notes, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts and Redemption Premium) payable to it hereunder and/or (B) require such Disqualified Purchaser to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 13.05), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees pursuant to an Assignment Agreement at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Purchaser paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts and Redemption Premium) payable to it hereunder.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Purchasers (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Purchasers by the Issuer, the Note Agent or any other Purchaser, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Purchasers and the Note Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Purchasers or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Note Agent or the Purchasers and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Note Agent or any Purchaser to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Note Document, each Disqualified Purchaser will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Purchasers that are not Disqualified Purchasers consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws, each Disqualified Purchaser party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws, (2) if such Disqualified Purchaser does vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).

(iii) The Note Agent shall have the right, and the Issuer hereby expressly authorizes the Note Agent, to provide the list of Disqualified Purchasers to each Purchaser specifically requesting the same.

178

(l) The Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent or the Issuer (in the case of Paying Agent or the Issuer, upon written notice to the Note Agent prior to the Note Agent registering the applicable assignment, sale or transfer of Notes in the Register) may require, prior to registering any such assignment, sale or transfer of the Notes, such legal opinions, certifications and other information as the Issuer has reasonably requested to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Note Documents to the contrary, any transfers or exchanges or interests of beneficial interests in Global Notes (as defined in the Paying Agency Agreement) or Definitive Notes (as defined in the Paying Agency Agreement) will be governed by Sections 4 and 5 of the Paying Agency Agreement.

Section 13.06 Survival. The obligations of the Note Parties under Sections 5.06, 13.03 and 13.19, the obligations of each Guarantor under Section 6.03, and the obligations of the Purchasers under Sections 5.06 and 12.08, in each case shall survive the redemption of the Notes and repayment of the other Obligations and the termination of the Commitments and, in the case of any Purchaser that may assign any interest in its Commitments or Notes (and any related Obligations) hereunder, shall (to the extent relating to such time as it was a Purchaser) survive the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Purchaser may cease to be a “Purchaser” hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any issuance of notes, herein or pursuant hereto shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the issuance of any notes hereunder, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Note Agent or any Purchaser may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty.

Section 13.16 [Reserved].

Section 13.17 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Note Document), the Issuer and each other Note Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Purchasers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Issuer, each other Note Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Purchasers, on the other hand, (B) each of the Issuer and the other Note Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Issuer and each other Note Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Note Documents; (ii) (A) the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger and each Purchaser is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Issuer, any other Note Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person (except as expressly set forth in any commitment letters or engagement letters between the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger or such Purchaser and the Issuer or such Note Party or Affiliate thereof) and (B) none of the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger or any Purchaser has any obligation to the Issuer, any other Note Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents or in other written agreements between the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger or any Purchaser on one hand and the Issuer, any other Note Party or any of their respective Affiliates on the other hand; and (iii) the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Purchasers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from, or conflict with, those of the Issuer, the other Note Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger or any Purchaser has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Issuer, any other Note Party or any of their respective Affiliates. Each Note Party agrees that nothing in this Agreement or any other Note Document will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Purchasers, on the one hand, and such Note Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Issuer and each other Note Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Note Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger or any Purchaser with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby (other than any agency or fiduciary duty expressly set forth in any commitment letter or engagement letter referenced in clause (ii)(A)).

Section 13.18 Purchaser Action. Each Purchaser agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Note Party or any other obligor under any of the Note Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Note Party, without the prior written consent of the Note Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Purchasers). The provisions of this Section 13.18 are for the sole benefit of the Agents and Purchasers and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Note Party.

184

Section 13.19 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Note Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Note Documents (collectively, the “Charges”) shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Purchaser shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Notes or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Issuer. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Purchaser exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude optional redemptions and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the interest and other Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Note but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 13.19 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Purchaser in respect of other Notes or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Purchaser. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in this Agreement, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Rate, and at that time this Section 13.19 shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that such Purchaser could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Rate. If the Maximum Rate is calculated pursuant to this Section 13.19, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 13.19, a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that a Purchaser has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, the Note Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in this Agreement and thereafter shall refund any excess to the Issuer or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

Section 13.20 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Issuer is made to any Agent or any Purchaser, or any Agent or any Purchaser exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Purchaser in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and the Agents’ and the Purchasers’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Note Document shall continue in full force and effect, and (b) each Purchaser severally agrees to pay to the Note Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect. In such event, each Note Document shall be automatically reinstated (to the extent that any Note Document was terminated) and he Issuer shall take (and shall cause each other Note Party to take) such action as may be requested by the Note Agent and the Purchasers to effect such reinstatement.

Section 13.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Note Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Note Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

Section 13.22 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Note Document, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Note Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control; provided that in the case of any conflict or inconsistency between the Closing Date Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or any Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, on the one hand, and any other Note Document, on the other hand, the terms of the Closing Date Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or such Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, shall govern and control.

(a) Each Purchaser represents that, solely with respect to such Purchaser and not with regard to any other Purchaser, severally and not jointly, that it is purchasing the Notes to be purchased by it solely for its own account and not as nominee or agent for any other Person with the present intention of holding such securities for purposes of investment, and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act).
