Borrower shall use the proceeds of the C/T Loan (i) to finance, construct, furnish and equip the Construction Projects, (ii) to pay other costs and expenses permitted herein related to the financing (including the payment of any interest due under the terms of the Credit Agreement), furnishing, equipping and construction of the Construction Projects, and otherwise as contemplated or permitted herein for the Construction Projects, and as more particularly described in the Construction Budgets, (iii) to finance the cost of Gaming Devices and associated equipment, (iv) to refinance the Existing Bank Debt, (v) to finance pre-opening and transaction costs, including obligations up to the cumulative aggregate amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in consideration for advisory services rendered in connection with the Construction Projects and the financing of the Construction Projects, and (vi) to pay the amounts due to CCVLLC upon "Commencement of Construction" as used in the Contribution Agreement up to the maximum amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).
 
Section 2.02.  Term of C/T Loan. The C/T Loan shall be for a term commencing on the Closing Date and terminating on the Maturity Date, on which date the entire outstanding balance of the C/T Loan shall be fully paid and Bank Facilities Termination shall occur. In no event shall any Lender be liable to fund any amounts under the C/T Loan in excess of its respective Syndication Interest in any Construction Disbursement.
 
Section 2.03.  The C/T Note, Interest Rate, Scheduled Amortization and Excess Cash Flow Payments.
 
a.  The C/T Loan shall be evidenced by the C/T Note dated as of the Closing Date and shall bear interest and be due and payable to Agent Bank on behalf of the Lenders as provided therein, a copy of which is marked "Exhibit A", affixed hereto and by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof as though fully set forth verbatim. Agent Bank shall record the date and amount of each Construction Disbursement advanced by the Lenders, and the amount of each repayment of principal made thereunder by Borrower and the entry of such records shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, the failure to make such a record or notation with respect to any Construction Disbursement or repayment thereof, or an error in making such a record or notation, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the C/T Note.
 
38

 
b.  Interest shall accrue on the entire outstanding principal balance of the C/T Loan at the Agreed Rate. Interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the C/T Loan shall be due and payable on the first day of each and every calendar month and on the Maturity Date.
 
c.  Each determination of the applicable Agreed Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error. The Agent Bank shall, on no less than a monthly basis, deliver to Borrower an invoice statement showing the payment due and the computations used by the Agent Bank in determining the Agreed Rate hereunder. Computation of interest on the C/T Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and the actual number of days elapsed.
 
d.  Commencing on the last day of the first full Fiscal Quarter following the Term Out Date and continuing on the last day of each and every Fiscal Quarter thereafter until the Maturity Date, the Scheduled Term Amortization Payments shall be made in the amounts and on the Term Payment Dates as set forth on the C/T Loan Reduction Schedule, Schedule 2.03(d) affixed hereto.
 
e.  In addition to the Scheduled Term Amortization Payments, during the Term Period Borrower shall pay on or before the sixtieth (60th) calendar day following each Fiscal Quarter end, commencing on the sixtieth (60th) calendar day following the first full Fiscal Quarter following the Term Out Date, an amount equal to fifty percent (50.0%) of the amount of Excess Cash Flow realized by Borrower during such Fiscal Quarter (in each case an "Excess Cash Flow Payment"). Provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Excess Cash Flow Payment shall be required for any Fiscal Quarter in which Borrower realizes as of the end of such Fiscal Quarter a Senior Leverage Ratio less than 2.50 to 1.00.
 
f.  All principal prepayments, including Excess Cash Flow Payments, Capital Proceeds applied to the C/T Loan under Section 8.02(a) and Excess Capital Proceeds under Section 6.12(c) received by Agent Bank shall be applied to the last principal sums falling due under the C/T Loan in the inverse order of maturity.
 
Section 2.04.  Construction Disbursements.
 
a.  Subject to the conditions and upon the terms hereinafter set forth and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the C/T Note, during the Construction Period Lenders severally agree to advance Construction Disbursements to Borrower in proportion to their respective Syndication Interests in such amounts as Borrower may request from time to time by Construction Disbursement Request, so long as Borrower is in full compliance with each of the requirements and conditions precedent set forth in Articles III B and IX of this Credit Agreement. Provided, however,
 
39

 
upon the consent of the Requisite Lenders, Lenders shall advance Construction Disbursements notwithstanding the existence of less than full compliance with the requirements of Article III B or Article IX and Construction Disbursements so made shall be deemed to have been made pursuant to this Credit Agreement.
 
b.  Each Lender's obligation to advance Construction Disbursements in the proportionate amount of its Pro Rata Share is several, and not joint or joint and several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligation to advance a Construction Disbursement in a proportionate amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share will not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to advance such Construction Disbursement in the amount of such other Lender's Pro Rata Share.
 
ARTICLE II B

Section 2.05.  The Revolving Credit Facility.

The Revolving Credit Facility shall be for a term commencing on the Closing Date and terminating on the Maturity Date, on which date the entire outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be fully paid and Bank Facilities Termination shall occur.

(ii)  funding working capital needs of the Borrower relating to the Casino Facility;
 
(iii)  funding ongoing Capital Expenditure requirements of the Borrower relating to the Casino Facility; and
 
(iv)  for general corporate purposes of the Borrower.
 
 
Section 2.07.  Notice of Borrowings.
 
a.  An Authorized Officer shall give Agent Bank, no later than 11:00 a.m. on any Banking Business Day at Agent Bank's office specified in Section 2.07, at least one (1) full Banking Business Day prior written notice in the form of the Notice of Borrowing ("Notice of Borrowing"), a copy of which is marked "Exhibit C", affixed hereto and by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof, for each proposed Borrowing, specifying the date and amount of each proposed Borrowing. Agent Bank shall give prompt notice of each Notice of Borrowing to Lenders of the amount to be funded and specifying the Funding Date. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Funding Date specified, each Lender shall disburse to Agent Bank the Pro Rata Share of the amount to be advanced by each such Lender in lawful money of the United
 
41

 
States of America and in immediately available funds. Agent Bank shall make the proceeds of such fundings received by it on or before 11:00 a.m. from the Lenders available to Borrower by depositing, prior to 1:00 p.m. on the day so received (but not prior to the Funding Date), the amounts received from the Lenders in the Designated Deposit Account maintained with Agent Bank. No Borrowing may exceed the Available Borrowings. Each Borrowing shall be in a minimum amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) and additional amounts in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) shall be in increments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) or such lesser amount as equals the Maximum RLC Availability. Borrower shall be entitled to no more than five (5) Borrowings during each calendar month, exclusive of Borrowings made for the sole purpose of funding repayment of an L/C Reimbursement Obligation.
 
b.  The failure of any Lender to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing on any Funding Date shall neither relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to fund its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing on such Funding Date nor relieve such Lender which has failed to fund its Pro Rata Share of its obligations to Borrower hereunder. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fund its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing on any Funding Date nor shall any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to perform its respective obligations hereunder. The provisions set forth in Section 11.10(d) shall be applicable to a Defaulting Lender to the same extent as if such Defaulting Lender was found to be an Unsuitable Lender.
 
Section 2.08.  Conditions of Borrowings. Borrowings will only be made so long as Borrower is in full compliance with each of the requirements and conditions precedent set forth in Article III B of this Credit Agreement, other than Borrowings made at the request of Agent Bank for the purpose of funding repayment of L/C Reimbursement Obligations as hereinafter provided. Provided, however, upon the consent of Requisite Lenders, Lenders shall advance Borrowings notwithstanding the existence of less than full compliance with the requirements of Article III B and Borrowings so made shall be deemed to have been made pursuant to this Credit Agreement.
 
 
Section 2.09.  The Revolving Credit Note and Interest Rate.
 
 
a.  The Revolving Credit Facility shall be further evidenced by the Revolving Credit Note dated as of the Closing Date payable to the order of Agent Bank on behalf of the Lenders as provided herein, a copy of which is marked "Exhibit B", affixed hereto and by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof. Agent Bank shall record manually or electronically the date and amount of each Borrowing advanced by the Lenders, and the amount of each repayment of principal made thereunder by Borrower and the entry of such records shall be conclusive absent
 
42

 
manifest or demonstrable error; provided, however, the failure to make such a record or notation with respect to any Borrowing or repayment thereof, or an error in making such a record or notation, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note.
 
b.  Interest shall accrue on the entire outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility at a rate per annum equal to the Agreed Rate. Interest accrued on the Funded RLC Outstandings shall be due and payable on the first (1st) Banking Business Day of the month following the Closing Date, on the first (1st) Banking Business Day of each successive month thereafter, and on the Maturity Date.
 
c.  The applicable Agreed Rate shall be determined by the Agent Bank, and notice thereof shall be given promptly to Borrower and Lenders. Each determination of the applicable Agreed Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error. The Agent Bank shall, upon written request of Borrower or any Lender, promptly deliver to Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, a statement showing the computations used by the Agent Bank in determining any rate hereunder.
 
d.  Computation of interest on the Revolving Credit Facility shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and the actual number of days elapsed. The applicable Prime Rate shall be effective the same day as a change in the Prime Rate is announced by WFB as being effective.
 
Section 2.10.  Issuance of Letters of Credit.
 
a.  Any Authorized Officer of Borrower may from time to time following the Closing Date request that a Standby Letter of Credit be issued by delivering to L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Agent Bank) on a Banking Business Day, at least five (5) Banking Business Days prior to the date of such proposed issuance, an L/C Agreement in L/C Issuer's then standard form (consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement), completed to the satisfaction of L/C Issuer and such other certificates as the L/C Issuer may reasonably request; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be issued (a) if any Default or Event of Default has occurred and remains continuing, or (b) if after giving effect to the issuance thereof, the aggregate Stated Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit would exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), or (c) the Stated Amount of the requested Letter of Credit exceeds the then Available RLC Borrowings. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by the L/C Issuer on the Banking Business Day specified in the Borrower's application therefor. Each request for a Letter of Credit and each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication New 1994 Revision No. 500, or any successor publication then in effect. Each Letter of Credit will be issued for a term not greater than one (1) year and shall not
 
43

 
include any provision for automatic renewal. In no event shall any Letter of Credit provide for the reinstatement of the Stated Amount thereof upon reimbursement or otherwise. In no event shall any Letter of Credit have a Stated Expiry Date later than thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. Promptly after receipt of each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit and immediately prior to the issuance thereof, L/C Issuer shall obtain telephonic verification from Agent Bank that the amount of such request does not exceed the then Available RLC Borrowings. The L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent Bank of the aggregate L/C Exposure of outstanding Letters of Credit each time there is a change therein.
 
b.  Upon presentation of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit, L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent Bank and Borrower of the amount under such draft and the date upon which such draft is to be funded. On or before two (2) Banking Business Days following such notice (unless Borrower has made other arrangements acceptable to the L/C Issuer to pay the amount of such draft in full), Borrower shall advance to L/C Issuer the amount of such draft from Borrower's available funds or shall request a Borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility in an amount sufficient to pay the amount of such draft in full. The Agent Bank, upon receipt of such funds from the Lenders, shall automatically provide such amount to the L/C Issuer for payment of the amount of such draft and the balance of the Borrowing shall be deposited in immediately available funds to the Designated Deposit Account. In the event Borrower fails to advance to L/C Issuer the amount of such draft from Borrower's available funds or to request a Borrowing within two (2) Banking Business Days from receipt of the notice as specified above, on the third (3rd) Banking Business Day following Agent Bank's receipt of such notice, Agent Bank shall, without notice to or consent of the Borrower and without regard to any other conditions precedent for the making of Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, cause a Borrowing to be made and funded by the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility and Lenders agree to fund their respective Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing in the amount necessary to pay the amount of such draft in full. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, L/C Issuer shall, without notice or further authorization or consent of Borrower whatsoever, be authorized to immediately cause the Cash Collateral Account to be established and funded by Lenders with a Borrowing advanced to Agent Bank equal to the aggregate amount of the L/C Exposure then outstanding. All amounts held by L/C Issuer in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held as security for the repayment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation thereafter arising pursuant to the terms of the L/C Agreement(s) and the Cash Collateral Pledge Agreement. Borrowings advanced by Lenders to pay drafts drawn upon or to secure repayment of the L/C Exposure under Letters of Credit pursuant to this subsection shall: (i) constitute Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) be subject to all of the provisions of this Credit Agreement concerning Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, except that such Borrowings shall be made upon demand of the Agent Bank as set forth above rather
 
44

 
than upon Notice of Borrowing by Borrower and shall be made, notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, without regard to any other conditions precedent to the making of Borrowings under the Credit Agreement and notwithstanding any Default or Event of Default thereunder. All amounts paid by L/C Issuer on a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit which has not been funded or concurrently reimbursed by Borrower or through a Borrowing as provided hereinabove, shall bear interest at the Agreed Rate until repaid or reimbursed to L/C Issuer.
 
c.  In the event Agent Bank fails or is restrained, prohibited or restricted from causing a Borrowing to be made as provided in (b) above or Lenders are restrained, prohibited or restricted from funding a Borrowing as provided in (b) above, or L/C Issuer is restrained, prohibited or restricted from using the proceeds held in the Cash Collateral Account to fund any draft drawn under any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer may by written notice given to Agent Bank not later than 11:00 a.m. on any Banking Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on the next Banking Business Day in the subject L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of the L/C Reimbursement Obligation in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, Agent Bank will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share percentage of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to Agent Bank , for the account of the L/C Issuer, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in the L/C Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (provided that such payment shall not cause the unpaid balance of principal owing to such Lender under the Bank Facilities to exceed such Lender’s Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities). Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Borrowings made by such Lender, and Agent Bank shall promptly pay to the L/C Issuer the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Agent Bank shall notify Borrower of any participations in any L/C Reimbursement Obligation acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be made to Agent Bank and not to the L/C Issuer. Any amounts received by the L/C Issuer from Borrower (or other party on behalf of Borrower) in respect of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation after receipt by the L/C Issuer of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to Agent Bank; any such amounts received by Agent Bank shall be promptly remitted by Agent Bank to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the L/C Issuer, as their interests may
 
45

 
appear. The purchase of participations in any L/C Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.
 
d.  Each Lender's obligation to advance Borrowings or purchase a participation interest in the proportionate amount of its Syndication Interest in the Revolving Credit Facility of any unreimbursed amounts outstanding under any L/C Reimbursement Obligation pursuant hereto is several, and not joint or joint and several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligation to advance a Borrowing or purchase a participation interest in a proportionate amount of such Lender's Syndication Interest of any unreimbursed amounts outstanding under any L/C Reimbursement Obligation will not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to advance such Borrowing in the amount of such other Lender's proportionate Syndication Interest of such amount, nor relieve the Lender which has failed to fund of its obligation to fund hereunder. The Borrower agrees to accept the Borrowings for payment of Letters of Credit as provided hereinabove, whether or not such Borrowings could have been made pursuant to the terms of Article III or any other section of the Credit Agreement.
 
e.  Letters of Credit shall be used and issued for the benefit of Borrower for the general corporate purposes of Borrower relating to the Construction Projects and the Casino Facility.
 
 
f.  The obligations of Borrower under this Credit Agreement and any L/C Agreement to reimburse L/C Issuer for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and to repay any drawing under a Letter of Credit funded by any Borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement and each such other L/C Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement or any L/C Agreement; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), L/C Issuer or any other person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C Agreement or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit; or any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; or (iv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower; provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any Lender shall be obligated to reimburse L/C
 
46

 
Issuer for any wrongful payment finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been made by L/C Issuer as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of L/C Issuer. To the extent that any provision of any L/C Agreement is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.10, the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall control.
 
ARTICLE II C

SECURITY, FEES AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE BANK FACILITIES
 
Section 2.11.  Security for the Bank Facilities. The Security Documentation shall secure the due and punctual payment and performance of the terms and provisions of this Credit Agreement, the C/T Note, the Revolving Credit Note and all of the other Loan Documents. The Security Documentation required under Section 3.03 and Section 3.04 shall be executed and delivered to Agent Bank, on or before the Closing Date, by the respective parties to each of the Security Documentation and recorded and/or filed as required by the Closing Instructions.
 
Section 2.12.  Place and Manner of Payment.
 
a.  All amounts payable by Borrower to the Lenders shall be made to Agent Bank on behalf of Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement and the Notes and shall be made on a Banking Business Day in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. Other than in connection with: (i) principal payments which may be required to decrease the Funded RLC Outstandings and L/C Exposure to an amount equal to or less than the Aggregate RLC Commitment, or (ii) principal payments to increase the Available RLC Borrowings to an amount equal to or in excess of Construction Completion Costs as of any date of determination, Borrower shall not make repayments ("R/C Principal Prepayments") of the outstanding balance of principal owing under the Revolving Credit Note more frequently than three (3) such R/C Principal Prepayments during each calendar month. Each such R/C Principal Prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) (or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility) and in increments of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) in excess thereof.
 
b.  All such amounts payable by Borrower shall be made to Agent Bank at its office located at Wells Fargo Bank, Syndications Division, 201 Third Street, Eighth Floor, San Francisco, California 94103, or at such other address as may be directed in writing by Agent Bank from time to time and shall be designated as payments on the C/T Loan or the Revolving Credit Facility. If such payment is received by Agent Bank prior to 11:00 a.m., Agent Bank shall credit Borrower with such payment on the day so received and shall promptly disburse to the appropriate Lenders on the
 
47

 
same day the Pro Rata Share of payments relating to the C/T Loan or the Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable, in immediately available funds. If such payment is received by Agent Bank after 11:00 a.m., Agent Bank shall credit Borrower with such payment as of the next Banking Business Day and disburse to the Lenders on the next Banking Business Day such Pro Rata Share of such payment relating to the C/T Loan or the Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable, in immediately available funds. Any payment on the Bank Facilities made by Borrower to Agent Bank pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement for the account of Lenders shall constitute payment to the appropriate Lenders. If the C/T Loan or the Revolving Credit Note or any payment required to be made thereon or hereunder, is or becomes due and payable on a day other than a Banking Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
 
c.  Unless the Agent Bank receives notice from an Authorized Officer prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent Bank may assume that Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent Bank on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent Bank may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Agent Bank, each Lender shall repay to the Agent Bank on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.
 
d.  If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain any payment with respect to the Bank Facilities (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Syndication Interest, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Agent Bank of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Bank Facilities as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment with each of them in proportion to their respective Syndication Interests; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such
 
48

 
participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Agent Bank will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error) of each participation purchased under this section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.
 
Section 2.13.  Fees.
 
a.  On or before the Closing Date and on each other applicable date, Borrower shall pay to Agent Bank the fees as required in the Fee Side Letter, each of such fees to be retained by Agent Bank or distributed to Lenders as set forth in the Fee Side Letter.
 
b.  Commencing on the Closing Date and continuing until the Term Out Date with respect to the C/T Loan and until the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, Borrower shall be obligated to pay a quarterly nonusage fee (the "Nonusage Fee") to the Agent Bank for the account of Lenders in the proportions of their respective Syndication Interests.

All payments made by Agent Bank for the purpose of providing the insurance coverages required under Section 5.09 shall be deemed amounts advanced under Section 5.12 of this Credit Agreement.
 
e.  The Banks and/or Agent Bank may exercise any other remedies available to Banks or Agent Bank at law or in equity, including requesting the appointment of a receiver to perform any acts required of Borrower under this Credit Agreement, and Borrower hereby specifically consents to any such request by Banks.
 
          For the purpose of carrying out this section and exercising these rights, powers and privileges, Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent Bank as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and do and perform any acts such as are referred to in this paragraph in the name and on behalf of Borrower. Agent Bank on behalf of Lenders may exercise one or more of Lenders' remedies simultaneously and all its remedies are nonexclusive and cumulative. Agent Bank and Lenders shall not be required to pursue or exhaust any Collateral or remedy before pursuing any other Collateral or remedy. Agent Bank and Lenders' failure to exercise any remedy for a particular default shall not be deemed a waiver of (i) such remedy, nor their rights to exercise any other remedy for that default, nor (ii) their right to exercise that remedy for any subsequent default.
 
Section 7.03.  Application of Proceeds. All payments and proceeds received and all amounts held or realized from the sale or other disposition of the Collateral Properties and/or Collateral, which are to be applied hereunder towards satisfaction of Borrower's obligations under the Bank Facilities, shall be applied in the following order of priority:
 
a.  First, to the payment of all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) incurred by Agent Bank and Banks, their agents or representatives in connection with the realization upon any of the Collateral;
 
b.  Next, to the payment in full of any other amounts due under this Credit Agreement, the Deed of Trust, or any other Loan Documents (other than the Notes);
 
c.  Next, to the balance of interest remaining unpaid on the Notes on a pro rata basis;
 
d.  Next, to the balance of principal remaining unpaid on the Notes on a pro rata basis;
 
 
91

e.  Next, the balance, if any, of such payments or proceeds to whomever may be legally entitled thereto.
 
Section 7.04.  Notices. In order to entitle Agent Bank and/or Banks to exercise any remedy available hereunder, it shall not be necessary for Agent Bank and/or Banks to give any notice, other than such notice as may be required expressly herein or by applicable law.
 
Section 7.05.  Agreement to Pay Attorney's Fees and Expenses. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.14, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as a result of which Agent Bank shall require and employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of payments due or to become due or the enforcement or performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the part of Borrower contained herein, Borrower shall, on demand, pay to Agent Bank the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable expenses so incurred by Agent Bank.
 
Section 7.06.  No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement contained in this Credit Agreement should be breached by either party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.
 
Section 7.07.  Licensing of Agent Bank and Lenders. In the event of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents and it shall become necessary, or in the opinion of Requisite Lenders advisable, for an agent, supervisor, receiver or other representative of Agent Bank and Banks to become licensed under the provisions of the laws and/or regulations of the Colorado Gaming Authorities as a condition to receiving the benefit of any Collateral encumbered by the Deed of Trust or other Loan Documents for the benefit of Lenders or otherwise to enforce their rights hereunder, Borrower hereby gives its consent to the granting of such license or licenses and agrees to execute such further documents as may be required in connection with the evidencing of such consent.
 
Section 7.08.  Exercise of Rights Subject to Applicable Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article VII may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of the laws of any Governmental Authority and all of the provisions of this Article VII are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Credit Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.
 
92

 
Section 7.09.  Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case Agent Bank and/or Banks shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Credit Agreement, the Notes, the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to Banks, then and in every such case Borrower, Agent Bank and/or Banks shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of Agent Bank and Banks shall continue as if such proceedings had not been taken, subject to any binding rule by the applicable court or other tribunal in any such proceeding.
 
 
ARTICLE VIII  
 
DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION
 
Section 8.01.  No Abatement of Payments. If all or any part of the Collateral Properties shall be materially damaged or destroyed, or if title to or the temporary use of the whole or any part of any of the Collateral Properties shall be taken or condemned by a competent authority for any public use or purpose, there shall be no abatement or reduction in the amounts payable by Borrower hereunder or under the Notes, and Borrower shall continue to be obligated to make such payments.
 
Section 8.02.  Distribution of Capital Proceeds Upon Occurrence of Fire, Other Perils or Condemnation. All monies received from "All Risk" including flood and earthquake insurance policies covering any of the Collateral Properties or from condemnation or similar actions in regard to said Collateral Properties, shall be paid directly to Agent Bank. However, in the event the amount paid to Agent Bank is equal to or less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), such amount shall be paid directly to Borrower unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing. In the event the amount paid to Agent Bank is greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), then at the option of Borrower, unless an Event of Default has occurred hereunder and is then continuing, in which case at the option of Requisite Lenders, such amount may be applied to pay the outstanding balance of the C/T Loan or the entire amount so collected, or any part thereof, may be released to Borrower for repair or replacement of the property destroyed or condemned or to reimburse Borrower for the costs of such repair or replacement incurred prior to the date of such release. In the event the Borrower elects to, or Lenders are required to, release all or a portion of the collected funds to Borrower for such repair or re-placement of the property destroyed or condemned, such release of funds shall be made in accordance with the following terms and conditions:
 
a.  The repairs, replacements and rebuilding shall be made in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Requisite Lenders and in
 
 
93

 material compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and requirements of Governmental Authorities;
 
b.  Borrower shall provide Agent Bank with a detailed estimate of the costs of such repairs or restora-tions;
 
c.  Borrower shall satisfy the Requisite Lenders that after the reconstruction is completed, the value of the Collateral Properties, as determined by the Requisite Lenders in their reasonable discretion, will not be materially less than the value of the Collateral Properties prior to such destruction or condemnation as determined by the Requisite Lenders pursuant to this Credit Agreement;
 
d.  In the Requisite Lenders' sole reasonable opinion, any undisbursed portion of the Available Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, together with the amount of such proceeds, is sufficient to pay all costs of reconstruction of the Casino Facility or other Collateral Property damaged, destroyed or condemned; or if the undisbursed portion of such Revolving Credit Facility is not sufficient, Borrower shall deposit additional funds with the Agent Bank, sufficient to pay such additional costs of reconstructing the Collateral Property;
 
e.  Borrower has delivered to the Agent Bank a construction contract for the work of reconstruction in form and content, including insurance requirements, acceptable to the Requisite Lenders with a contractor acceptable to the Requisite Lenders;
 
f.  The Requisite Lenders in their reasonable discretion have determined that after the work of reconstruction is completed, the Casino Facility or Collateral Property damaged, destroyed or condemned will produce income sufficient to pay all costs of operations and maintenance of the applicable Collateral Property with a reasonable reserve for repairs, and service all debts secured by the applicable Collateral Property;
 
g.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder;
 
h.  Borrower has deposited with the Agent Bank that amount reasonably determined by the Requisite Lenders (taking into consideration the amount of Borrowings available and the amount of proceeds, if any, of insurance policies covering property damage and business interruption, loss or rental income in connection with the Casino Facility or Collateral Property damaged, destroyed or condemned accruing and immediately forthcoming to the Agent Bank) to be sufficient to service the Indebtedness secured by the Casino Facility or Collateral Property
 
94

damaged, destroyed or condemned during the period of reconstruction, as reasonably estimated by the Requisite Lenders;
 
i.  Before commencing any such work, Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, furnish Agent Bank with appropriate endorsements, if needed, to the "All Risk" insurance policy which Borrower is then presently maintaining, and course of construction insurance to cover all of the risks during the course of such work;
 
j.  Such work shall be commenced by Borrower within one hundred twenty (120) days after (i) settlement shall have been made with the insurance companies or condemnation proceeds shall have been received, and (ii) all the necessary governmental approvals shall have been obtained, and such work shall be completed within a reasonable time, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances so as not to interfere with the lien of the Deed of Trust;
 
k.  Disbursements of such insurance or condemnation proceeds shall be made in the customary manner used by Agent Bank for the disbursement of construction loans; and
 
l.  That in the event the insurance or condemnation proceeds are inadequate to repair or replace the property destroyed or condemned and Requisite Lenders elect to, or are required to release all or a portion of the funds collected for such repair or replacement, Borrower agrees to deposit with Agent Bank sufficient funds to cover the difference between the costs of repair or replacement and the funds released by Requisite Lenders to Borrower for such repair or replacement of the property destroyed.
 
 
ARTICLE IX  
 
CONSTRUCTION DISBURSEMENT PROCEDURES

Upon the satisfaction of all the terms and conditions set forth in Article III A of this Credit Agreement on the Closing Date, and satisfaction of all terms and conditions set forth in Article III B of this Credit Agreement on or before the Initial Construction Disbursement Date, Construction Disbursements shall be disbursed or approved for payment by Lenders in the manner and subject to the conditions provided hereunder, and subject to the following terms covenants and conditions:
 
Section 9.01.  Commencement and Completion of the Construction Projects. Borrower will commence the Construction Projects and shall complete the Construction Projects with due diligence (i) in accordance and compliance in all material respects with the Plans and Specifications prepared by the Architect and (ii) in accordance and compliance in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this
 
95

 
Credit Agreement, and all material requirements of all Governmental Authorities acting in or for Gilpin County, Colorado. The Completion Date shall occur no later than the first annual anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Construction Completion Deadline"); provided, however, that in the event that the construction of the Construction Projects is delayed by reason of the occurrence of one or more Forces Majeure, upon receipt by Agent Bank of a written notice from Borrower describing each Force Majeure and setting forth the dates that construction of the Construction Projects were delayed by reason of each such Force Majeure, so long as each such written notice is received by Agent Bank on or before the twentieth (20th) day following the end of the respective period of delay, the Construction Completion Deadline shall be extended by the number of days during which construction of the Construction Projects was so delayed, but in no event shall the Construction Completion Deadline be extended beyond sixty (60) calendar days.
 
Section 9.02.  Master Set of Plans and Specifications. A master set of the final Plans and Specifications shall be furnished to Agent Bank and Lenders' Consultant at least fifteen (15) Banking Business Days prior to the Initial Construction Disbursement and shall be held by Agent Bank throughout the term of the Bank Facilities, and said set of Plans and Specifications shall govern all matters that may arise with respect to the construction and completion of the Construction Projects.
 
Section 9.03.  Construction of the Construction Projects Entirely on the Real Property. Other than with respect to the elevated pedestrian bridge over Spring Street to be constructed as a component of the Parking Garage Project, the Construction Projects shall be constructed entirely on the Real Property and shall not encroach upon or overhang any real property, easement (other than Permitted Encumbrances) or restriction rights owned by any other person or entity unless such other person or entity has consented or waived such encroachment to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent Bank and Requisite Lenders.
 
Section 9.04.  List and Assignment of Major Subcontracts.
 
a.  Borrower shall furnish to Agent Bank from time to time (but in no event more often than once monthly) during the Construction Period, within a reasonable time after written request by Agent Bank, in a form reasonably acceptable to Agent Bank, a then current correct list and copy of all material contracts, subcontracts and material suppliers (that have not, as of such date been previously delivered to Agent Bank), including, without limitation, all Major Subcontracts executed by Borrower and/or either General Contractor in connection with the Construction Projects. Borrower agrees that Agent Bank or Lenders' Consultant may contact any such contractor, subcontractor or material supplier to verify any facts disclosed in the lists.
 
96

 
b.  Concurrently with the execution of each Major Subcontract requiring payment thereunder in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in the aggregate (each individually an "Assigned Major Subcontract" and collectively the "Assigned Major Subcontracts"), Borrower shall cause such Assigned Major Subcontract to be assigned to Agent Bank on behalf of Lenders as additional security for the Bank Facilities and the Subcontractor party thereto to consent to such assignment, each in substantially the form of the Assignment of Casino General Contractor's Agreement and Casino General Contractor's Consent, or as otherwise reasonably required by Agent Bank.
 
Section 9.05.  Construction Projects Sign. During the construction of the Construction Projects, Agent Bank may erect a sign at the Construction Projects. The size, design, wording and location of such a sign shall be subject to Agent Bank's approval. The sign may be erected as soon as practical following the Agent Bank's request.
 
Section 9.06.  Inspection of Construction Progress and Lenders' Consultant. Designated representatives of Agent Bank, Lenders and Lenders' Consultant, shall, at all times during the Construction Period, have the right of reasonable entry and free access to the Construction Projects and the Real Property and the right to inspect all work done, labor performed and materials furnished in connection with the Construction Projects and the right of reasonable inspection to inspect all books, contracts and records of Borrower relating to the Construction Projects. In performing such inspection, Agent Bank, Lenders and Lenders' Consultant shall cooperate with Borrower in making suitable arrangements to minimize disruption of the construction work, and pursuant to Borrower's insurance policies and safety and security requirements.
 
Section 9.07.  Advance of Construction Disbursements. The Plans and Specifications, Construction Documentation, Construction Budgets and Financial Requirement Analysis shall be reviewed and approved by Agent Bank as provided herein. Subject to the requirements of Colorado Revised Statutes Section 38-22-126, Construction Disburse-ments shall be made to Borrower in accordance with the Construction Budgets for work performed or materials supplied to the Construction Projects or suitably stored in bonded warehouses located in the Denver metro area and in Gilpin County, Colorado. Construction Disbursements for Soft Costs and Hard Costs shall be disbursed in no event more than once a month in anticipation of the completion of the Construction Projects by the end of the Construction Period. For each Construction Disbursement, Borrower shall submit: (a) a Construction Disbursement Request, to Agent Bank, Lenders' Consultant and each of the Lenders with the copy to Agent Bank and Lenders' Consultant accompanied by invoices, statements and other items relating to such Construction Disbursement Request totaling the amount for which each Construction Disbursement is requested, and (b) an updated
 
97

 
Lender's Disbursement Budget, together with a line item reconciliation of each of the Construction Budgets setting forth for each line item the amount paid to date, the amounts due and owing but not yet paid by Borrower and budgeted amounts which have not been paid and are not due and owing. Lenders shall disburse such funds monthly in payment of those portions of the Construction Disbursement Requests which are approved by Agent Bank in a timely manner, but in no event later than ten (10) Banking Business Days following the date Agent Bank receives such Construction Disbursement Request in accordance with the requirements of Article IX. If the tenth (10th) Banking Business Day following Agent Bank's receipt of a proper Construction Disbursement Request is not a Banking Business Day, the Funding Date for such Construction Disbursement shall be the next Banking Business Day.
 
Section 9.08.  Restriction on Construction Disbursements. No Construction Disbursements may be used by Borrower for the payment of any costs, expenses or other items which are not set forth on the Construction Budgets.
 
Section 9.09.  Construction Disbursement Requests and Lien Releases. Each Construction Disbursement Request shall be certified by the Borrower, the Architect (with respect to items for disbursement to a General Contractor), and the applicable General Contractor (with respect to items under the applicable General Contractor's Agreement) prior to submission to Agent Bank and Lenders' Consultant. Each Construction Disbursement Request shall be further supported by invoices, statements and other items required under the Disbursement Plan and other forms reasonably requested by Agent Bank (AIA Forms G702 or forms substan-tially similar thereto if first approved by Agent Bank). Each subcontractor, material and labor supplier for whose labor or work of improve-ment such Construction Disbursement is made, together with the applicable General Contractor, shall, prior to the Construction Disbursement next requested, execute and deliver labor and/or materialmen mechanics lien releases in favor of Borrower, Agent Bank and Lenders releasing all lien rights and claims as of the date of such prior Construction Disbursement to the extent of payment received.
 
Section 9.10.  A Construction Disbursement Does Not Mean Approval of Work or Materials. Each Construction Disbursement Request shall be subject to the approval of Agent Bank but the making of any Construction Dis-burse-ment or part thereof shall not constitute an approval or acceptance of the work or material, nor be binding upon Agent Bank and Lenders, except to the extent that the facts actually are as so represented when so approved, nor shall such approval give rise to any liability or responsibility related to:
 
(i) the quality of the work, the quantity of the work, the rate or progress in completion of the work, or the sufficiency of materials or labor being supplied in connection therewith; and

98

(ii) any errors, omissions, inconsistencies or other defects of any nature in the Plans and Specifications. Any inspection of the work that Agent Bank, Lenders and Lenders' Consultant may choose to make, whether through any consulting engineer, agent or employee or officer, during the progress of the work shall be solely for Agent Bank's and Lenders' information and under no circumstances will any such inspection be deemed to have been made for the purpose of supervising or superintending the work, or for the information or protection of any right or interest of any Persons or entities other than Agent Bank and Lenders.
 
Section 9.11.  Method of Disbursement. All Construction Disburse-ments shall be payable to Borrower or in the sole and absolute discretion of Agent Bank, upon the occurrence of any Default or as may be otherwise required by Colorado Revised Statutes Section 38-22-126, jointly to Borrower and the applicable General Contractor or other Person to whom payment is due. However, in no event shall Banks be liable for any liens or encumbrances which may be filed against the Real Property, and Borrower agrees to remove any liens or encumbrances filed against the Real Property in accordance with Section 5.03.
 
Section 9.12.  Changes in the Construction Budgets and Work to be Performed Under the Plans and Specifications.
 
a.  The Lender's Disbursement Budget shall be a line item construction budget for the Construction Projects (inclusive of all items shown on the General Contractor Budgets and the Borrower Construction Budget), which budget shall include a contingency reserve ("Contingency Reserve") as of the Initial Construction Disbursement Date in the minimum amount of One Million Three Hundred Ninety-Two Thousand Three Hundred Forty-One Dollars ($1,392,341.00), subject to a budgetary set aside in the amount of a letter of credit anticipated to be issued under the L/C Facility in favor of the City of Central in the amount of Eight Hundred Thirty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($832,500.00). Borrower may make usual and ordinary changes in the work to be performed under the Plans and Specifications during the Construction Period provided Borrower shall not approve any single change order to either of the General Contractor Agreements or to any Major Subcontract exceeding the amount of One Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000.00) without the prior written consent of Agent Bank. All increases to a line item amount as shown on the Lender's Disbursement Budget shall be deducted from the Contingency Reserve. Any decreases to a line item amount as shown on the Lender's Disbursement Budget shall be added to the Contingency Reserve. Borrower shall be entitled to utilize savings in any completed line item by reallocating such savings to the Contingency Reserve which shall be reported monthly on a Contingency Transaction Ledger to be prepared in connection with the Construction Projects. In this regard, Borrower shall prepare a "Contingency Transaction Ledger" each month which shall detail increases and
 
99

 
decreases to budget line items and the Contingency Reserve as shown on the Lender's Disbursement Budget. All change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or to any Major Subcontract and changes to budget line items and the Contingency Reserve shall be detailed on the Contingency Transaction Ledger and Borrower shall further provide Agent Bank with copies of all change orders for the portions of the Construction Projects to which such Construction Disbursement relates.
 
b.  When the aggregate of all change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or to any Major Subcontract and changes to budget line items in connection with the Construction Projects result in a net decrease to the Contingency Reserve in the amount of: (i) fifty percent or more of the amount of the Contingency Reserve as set forth in the Financial Requirement Analysis at commencement of construction of the Construction Projects, Borrower shall not approve any further change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or any Major Subcontract or any further changes to budget line items in excess of Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000.00) for any single change order or line item change without the prior written consent of Agent Bank, and (ii) ninety percent (90%) or more of the amount of the Contingency Reserve as set forth in the Financial Requirement Analysis at commencement of construction of the Construction Projects, Borrower shall not approve any further change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or any Major Subcontract or any further changes to budget line items, regardless of amount, without the prior written consent of Agent Bank and all additional costs shall be first approved in writing by Agent Bank.
 
c.  Further, all re-allocations of line items on the Lender's Disbursement Budget larger than the greater of ten percent (10%) of any budgeted line item shall be first consented to by Agent Bank.
 
d.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no structural changes to the Structural Plans and Specifications (other than minor changes not inconsistent with the Plans and Specifications) or reduction in the amount of area shown in the Plans and Specifications for gaming activities shall be made without the prior written consent of Agent Bank.
 
e.  Subject to the provisions set forth hereinabove, within the foregoing limitations, the amounts allocated on the Lender's Disbursement Budget for Contingency Reserve may be allocated amongst the other line item categories at the discretion of Borrower.
 
Section 9.13.  Conditions Precedent to Construction Disbursement. No Construction Disbursement shall be made to Borrower with respect to the Construction Projects until each of the following conditions have occurred or otherwise been satisfied:
 
 
100

a.  Agent Bank shall have completed a Construction Cost Analysis as of the applicable Funding Date and have reviewed and approved as adequate the Plans and Specifications and all engineering reports and any subsequent change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or to any Major Subcontract or modification to the Plans and Specifications, Financial Requirement Analysis and the Construction Budgets, each review of which shall be completed on or before ten (10) Banking Business Days after receipt of such Plans and Specifications and/or engineering reports or modifications thereof, or on or before five (5) Banking Business Days with respect to change orders to the General Contractor Agreements or any Major Subcontract which require approval under Section 9.12(b);
 
b.  Borrower shall have actually paid for, other than the work of improvement for which the Construction Disbursement Request relates, all of the costs of the Construction Projects as set forth on the itemized Lender's Disbursement Budget (other than such costs incurred as: (i) have not been billed or invoiced to Borrower, or (ii) for which Borrower has received such billing or invoice within fifteen (15) days of such Construction Disbursement Request, or (iii) Borrower disputes or contests such costs in good faith) for work completed on the Construction Projects to the date of commencement of the period covered by such Construction Disbursement Request, less the Retainage required hereby;
 
c.  Borrower shall have certified to Agent Bank that to the date of such Construction Disbursement Request the Construction Projects have been constructed in substantial compliance with the approved Plans and Specifications and any change orders theretofore issued and in substantial compliance with all necessary Governmental Authorities, ordinances and regulations;
 
d.  Borrower shall have certified to Agent Bank, to the best of its knowledge, that the Construction Projects can be completed in substantial compliance with the Plans and Specifications and the Construction Budgets for an aggregate amount of Construction Completion Costs equal to or less than then remaining undisbursed balance of the C/T Loan;
 
e.  No Construction Disbursement shall be made to Borrower if, in the opinion of Agent Bank, the value of the construction in place on the site and materials delivered and suitably stored on site or in a warehouse in a manner satisfactory to Agent Bank is less than the total of all costs disbursed in con-nection with the construction of the Construction Projects. However, Construction Disbursements shall resume when said value exceeds the total of all costs disbursed;
 
f.  If at any time Agent Bank determines as a result of a Construction Cost Analysis that as of the date of such determination the aggregate amount of Construction Completion Costs exceeds the then remaining undisbursed
 
101

 
balance of the C/T Loan (the amount of such excess, as the same may exist at any time or from time to time, being herein referred to as a "Construction Overage"), Borrower shall have ten (10) days from written notice thereof from Agent Bank in which to: (i) increase the Available Borrowings by reducing the Funded RLC Outstandings by the amount of such Construction Overage, (ii) deposit in an interest bearing account with Agent Bank, Cash in the amount of such Construction Overage, which Cash shall be disbursed by Agent Bank for the payment of such Construction Overages prior to the making of any further Construction Disbursements, or (iii) make alternative arrangements satisfactory to Agent Bank for the payment of Borrower Construction Expenditures in the amount of such Construction Overage. In the event of (ii) above, Borrower shall have the right to select the type of interest bearing account so as to maximize the interest to be earned which shall accrue to the benefit of Borrower. In the event of a Construction Overage, all Construction Disbursements for the Construction Projects shall cease until Borrower shall have complied with the requirements set forth in Subsections 9.13(f)(i), (ii) or (iii) hereinabove; and
 
g.  Agent Bank shall have approved each Construction Disbursement Request and/or payments made by Borrower for items as shown on the Lender's Disbursement Budget.
 
By Borrower requesting Construction Disbursements under this Article IX, Borrower shall be deemed to have reaffirmed all representations and warranties contained in Article IV (other than representations and warranties which expressly speak only as of a different date which shall be true and correct as of such date) and confirmed that Borrower is in full compliance with each covenant contained in Article V concurrently with the making of each Construction Disbursement Request, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are not true and correct as a result of a change which is permitted by this Credit Agreement or by any other Loan Document, or which is otherwise consented to by Requisite Lenders.
 
Section 9.14.  No Obligation to See to Proper Application of Construction Disbursements. Nothing contained herein or in any other documents and agreements contemplated hereby or executed approximately simultaneously herewith shall impose upon Banks any obligation to see to the proper application of any Construction Disburse-ments by Borrower, the Architect, the General Contractors or Subcontractors, and nothing shall prevent Lenders, at their option, from deducting from any Construction Disbursements any sums owed to Banks by Borrower for unpaid interest or principal, or for sums paid and expended by Lenders for taxes, assessments, insurance and other like payments (after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period), pursuant to their rights under the terms of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or the Deed of Trust.
 
 
102

Section 9.15.  No Construction Disbursements Required in Event of Default. Lenders shall not be required to make any Construction Disbursements hereunder if, at the time when a Construction Disbursement Request is made, there exists an Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; provided, however, Lenders may, in their sole discretion upon the approval of Requisite Lenders, make Construction Disbursements notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default and any Construction Disbursements so made shall be deemed to have been made pursuant to this Credit Agreement.
 
Section 9.16.  No Construction Disbursements Required if Cloud on Title Exists. Lenders shall not be obligated to make any Construction Disburse-ments while there is any lien or encumbrance upon the Real Property, other than the Permitted Encumbrances or as provided in Sections 5.03 and 5.10 hereof, which, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for Lenders, may invalidate or have priority over the encumbrance, liens and security interests granted pursu-ant to the Deed of Trust.
 
Section 9.17.  Indorsement from Title Insurance Company. Title Insurance Company shall update the Title Policy issued as of the Closing Date in favor of Lenders promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days, following each Construction Disbursement at Borrower's expense insuring Agent Bank on behalf of Lenders against any further liens, encumbrances or exceptions to the state of title to the Real Property as of the date of each advance. Each such update shall be in the form of a written 122 Indorsement (except for the final indorsements as provided in Section 9.21) to the Title Policy together with any other indorsements which Lenders reasonably require. Additionally, Borrower shall cause Title Insurance Company to issue its 102.5 Foundation Indorsement to the Title Insurance Policy promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days, following completion of the foundations for the Construction Projects as set forth in the Plans and Specifications and Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered an "as built" survey of the Construction Projects prepared by an engineer acceptable to Agent Bank within ninety (90) days following the Completion Date.
 
Section 9.18.  Ownership of all Materials Used on the Construction Projects. All materials incorporated into the construction of the Construction Projects, other than FF&E leased by Borrower in accordance with this Credit Agreement, shall have been purchased and paid for in a timely manner so that the absolute ownership thereof shall have vested in Borrower, subject to any Permitted Encumbrances, and Borrower shall have furnished to Agent Bank, if required by Agent Bank, copies of the contracts, bills of sale, lease or other agreements under which title or pos-session thereto is claimed.
 
Section 9.19.  Accuracy of Representations and Warranties. Lenders shall not be required to make any Construction Disburse-ments unless and until the
 
103

 
representations and warranties con-tained in Article IV of this Credit Agreement are true and correct, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are not true and correct as a result of a change which is permitted by this Credit Agreement or by any other Loan Document, or which is otherwise consented to by Requisite Lenders, in all material respects on and as of the date of such Construction Disbursement, as though made on and as of such date (other than representations and warranties which expressly speak only as of a different date which shall be true and correct as of such date).
 
Section 9.20.  Waiver of Requirements by Requisite Lenders. Lenders reserve the right, in their sole discretion upon the approval of Requisite Lenders, from time to time to make any Construction Disbursements without regard to any condition herein. The Lenders further reserve the right to withhold any payment of any state-ments or invoices, payment of which is requested, if, in the opinion of the Agent Bank, the percentage of completion is less than indicated by such statement or invoice.
 
Section 9.21.  Disbursement of Retainage. Lenders shall retain (collectively the "Retainage") from the gross amount approved for each Construction Disbursement for Hard Costs made from the proceeds of the C/T Loan (i) five percent (5%) of the General Contractor’s portion of such Construction Disbursement, and (ii) ten percent (10%) of the portions of such Construction Disbursement relating to labor, materials and services provided by each Subcontractor until fifty percent (50%) of the Hard Cost component of the Lender's Disbursement Budget has been expended for work performed and has been verified by Lenders' Consultant as substantially in compliance with the Construction Documentation. Thereafter, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no further Retainage shall be retained from Construction Disbursements thereafter made unless Agent Bank is otherwise instructed by Borrower. Retainage withheld by Lenders from the proceeds of the C/T Loan shall not bear interest and shall be deemed not disbursed under the C/T Loan until released as provided hereinbelow. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the written request of Borrower, Lenders agree to release all Retainage for construction costs relating to any subcontractor at such time as the respective work of such subcontractor is one hundred percent (100%) complete, verified to be in substantial compliance with the Construction Documentation by Lenders' Consultant and upon such additional conditions and requirements as may be required by Agent Bank, to Agent Bank's reasonable satisfaction including, without limitation, final lien releases and other evidence that such work will be, with the release of such retention, fully paid. All remaining funds held for Retainage by Lenders shall be released (the "Retainage Release Date") upon the written request of Borrower, at such time as:
 
a.  The Completion Date has occurred with only "Punch List" items remaining to be completed which do not materially impair the ability of Borrower to occupy and operate the Construction Projects for their intended purpose, no single item
 
104

 
exceeding a completion cost in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) and the aggregate of such "Punch List" items not exceeding Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) in substantial compliance with the Plans and Specifications and the terms and requirements of all Governmental Authorities, including, without limitation, substantial compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, substantial compliance with which shall be certified to the best knowledge of the Architect, after due inquiry and investigation;
 
b.  The lien period for the Construction Projects have expired or the liens have been removed and Title Insurance Company has issued its final 101.6 indorsement to the Title Insurance Policy showing no liens, claims or encumbrances except those approved by Agent Bank upon the consent of Requisite Lenders;
 
c.  Each of the Construction Projects have been accepted by Borrower as substantially complete and certified substantially completed and the "Punch List" shall be prepared by the Architect and the General Contractors, and approved by the Lenders' Consultant after an inspection which shall be made within ten (10) days following the Completion Date;
 
d.  Each of the General Contractors have made a satisfactory account that all payments required under their respective General Contractor Agreements and Borrower has made a satisfactory account that all other Hard Costs shown on the Borrower Construction Budget and all Soft Costs have been paid in full, with the exception of the unreleased Retainage, including, but not by way of limitation, all material and labor costs and have delivered copies of all lien releases to Agent Bank and have certified that no claims with respect to the Construction Projects remain outstanding, including any claims which might give rise to a lien or liens against the Construction Projects, except for work described in the "Punch List" or as to which Borrower is contesting the validity or amount;
 
e.  The Occupancy Date shall have occurred and a copy of the temporary or final certificate of occupancy (if temporary, Borrower agrees to promptly deliver a copy of the final certificate of occupancy to Agent Bank when received by Borrower) has been issued to Borrower by the appropriate Governmental Authority and a copy thereof delivered to Agent Bank and Borrower has taken beneficial occupancy of each of the Construction Projects, including, without limitation, all public areas which shall be open for the use and occupancy by the public; and
 
f.  Borrower has delivered an "as-built" survey of the Construction Projects and an "as-built" set of plans and specifications of the Construction Projects to Agent Bank.
 
105

From the amounts released as provided hereinabove, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Architect and Agent Bank's reasonable estimate of the cost of completing the "Punch List" shall be withheld. Such amounts shall be released monthly upon Construction Disbursement Request submitted by Borrower. Within forty-five (45) days following the Retainage Release Date, Borrower shall (i) certify completion of the "Punch List", and (ii) cause Title Insurance Company to issue its final 100, 101.2 and 103.1 indorsements to the Title Insurance Policy showing no Liens, claims or encumbrances on the Real Property except those approved by Requisite Lenders.
 
Section 9.22.  Construction Disbursements if a Lender Fails to Provide Funds. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each of the Lenders shall only be responsible for its respective Pro Rata Share of any Construction Disbursement. In the event any of the Lenders fail to provide its Pro Rata Share of any Construction Disbursement, then the remaining Lenders' obligations to provide their respective Pro Rata Share shall not terminate nor shall Borrower's obligation to comply with the terms of this Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents terminate. If any Lender defaults in providing its Pro Rata Share of any Construction Disbursement, then Agent Bank and Borrower shall use their best efforts to find a replacement lender.
 
Section 9.23.  Possession and Completion of Construction. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower agrees, upon the request of Agent Bank at the direction of Requisite Lenders, to vacate the Construction Projects and the Real Property and permit Lenders:
 
a.  To enter directly, or through a receiver or other designated representative, into possession of the Construction Projects;
 
b.  To perform or cause to be performed any and all work and labor necessary, in the discretion of Agent Bank, to complete the Construction Projects in accordance with the Plans and Specifications;
 
c.  To employ security watchmen to protect the Construction Projects; and
 
d.  To advance any portion of the C/T Loan not previously advanced (including any Retainage and any reserved funds) to the extent necessary or desirable, in the sole discretion of Agent Bank, to complete construction of the Construction Projects without substantial departure from the Plans and Specifications, and if the completion requires a larger sum than the unadvanced portion of the C/T Loan, to advance such additional funds, all of which funds so advanced by Lenders shall be deemed to have been advanced to Borrower and shall be part of the Indebtedness evidenced by the C/T Note and secured by the Security Documentation. For this purpose, Borrower constitute and appoint Agent Bank the true and lawful
 
106

 
attorney-in-fact for Borrower, with full power of substitution, to complete the construction of the Construction Projects in the name of Borrower, and hereby empowers Agent Bank as such attorney to take all actions that Agent Bank considers necessary or desirable in connection therewith, including but not limited to the following: (i) to use any funds of Borrower, including any balance that may be held in escrow and any funds that may remain unadvanced under this agreement, for the purpose of completing the Construction Projects in substantially the manner called for by the Plans and Specifications; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections in the Plans and Specifications as Agent Bank may consider necessary or desirable to complete the Construction Projects in substantially the manner contemplated by the Plans and Specifications; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, engineers, architects, inspectors, attorneys and other Persons as Agent Bank may consider necessary or desirable for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing or future bills and claims that are or may be or become Liens against the Real Property, or may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the Construction Projects or the clearance of title to the Real Property; (v) to execute in the name of Borrower all applications and certificates that may be required by any construction contract; and (vi) to do any act with respect to the construction of the Construction Projects that Borrower could do on its own behalf. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked by death or otherwise. Such attorney-in-fact shall also have power to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the construction of the Construction Projects and to take such action and require such performance as Agent Bank considers necessary.
 
 
ARTICLE X  
 
AGENCY PROVISIONS
 
Section 10.01.  Appointment.
 
a.  Each Lender hereby (i) designates and appoints WFB as the Agent Bank of such Lender under this Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, (ii) authorizes and directs Agent Bank to enter into the Loan Documents other than this Credit Agreement for the benefit of Lenders, and (iii) authorizes Agent Bank to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent Bank agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article X.
 
b.  The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of Agent Bank and Lenders, and Borrower shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof (other than as set forth in the provisions of Sections 10.03, 10.09 and 11.10), provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit Borrower's
 
107

 
obligations under this Article X. In performing its functions and duties under this Credit Agreement, Agent Bank shall act solely as Agent Bank of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower or any other Person.
 
Section 10.02.  Nature of Duties. Agent Bank shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Credit Agreement or in the Loan Documents. The duties of Agent Bank shall be administrative in nature. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.05 and 10.07, Agent Bank shall administer the Bank Facilities in the same manner as it administers its own loans. Promptly following the effectiveness of this Credit Agreement, Agent Bank shall send to each Lender a duplicate executed original, to the extent the same are available in sufficient numbers, of the Credit Agreement and a copy of each other Loan Document in favor of Lenders and a copy of the filed or recorded Security Documentation, with the originals of the latter to be held and retained by Agent Bank for the benefit of all Lenders. Agent Bank shall not have by reason of this Credit Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to impose upon Agent Bank any obligation in respect of this Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and the Collateral in connection with the making and the continuance of the Bank Facilities hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Collateral, and, except as specifically provided herein, Agent Bank shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the Closing Date or at any time or times thereafter.
 
Section 10.03.  Disbursement of Borrowings and Construction Disbursements.
 
a.  Not later than the next Banking Business Day following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or a Construction Disbursement, Agent Bank shall send a copy thereof by facsimile to each other Lender and shall otherwise notify each Lender of the proposed Borrowing or Construction Disbursement and the applicable Funding Date. Each Lender shall make available to Agent Bank (or the funding bank or entity designated by Agent Bank), the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement in immediately available funds not later than the times designated in Section 10.03(b). Unless Agent Bank shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the close of business (San Francisco time) on the Banking Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date in respect of any Borrowing or Construction Disbursement that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent Bank such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement,
 
108

 
Agent Bank may assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Agent Bank. If any Lender does not notify Agent Bank of its intention not to make available its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement as described above, but does not for any reason make available to Agent Bank such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement, such Lender shall pay to Agent Bank forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In any case where a Lender does not for any reason make available to Agent Bank such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement, Agent Bank, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrower such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement. If Agent Bank funds to Borrower such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement and if such Lender subsequently pays to Agent Bank such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement. Nothing in this Section 10.03(a) shall alter the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder in respect of a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Pro Rata Borrowing.
 
b.  Requests by Agent Bank for funding by Lenders of Borrowings and Construction Disbursements will be made by facsimile. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing or Construction Disbursement available to Agent Bank in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to such bank and account, in San Francisco, California as Agent Bank may designate, not later than 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on the Funding Date designated in the Notice of Borrowing or a Construction Disbursement Request with respect to such Borrowing, but in no event later than one (1) Banking Business Day notice following Lender's receipt of the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Construction Disbursement.
 
c.  Nothing in this Section 10.03 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Pro Rata Share of Borrowings or Construction Disbursements on any Funding Date, nor shall any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to perform its obligations to advance its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing or Construction Disbursement hereunder, and the Pro Rata Share of any Lender shall not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to advance its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing.
 
Section 10.04.  Distribution and Apportionment of Payments.
 
 
a.  Subject to Section 10.04(b), payments actually received by Agent Bank for the account of Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Agent Bank, but in any event within one (1) Banking Business Day, provided that Agent Bank shall pay to Lenders interest thereon, at the Federal Funds Rate from the Banking Business Day following receipt of such funds by Agent Bank until such
 
109

 
funds are paid in immediately available funds to Lenders. Subject to Section 10.04(b), all payments of principal and interest in respect of Funded Outstandings, all payments of the Nonusage fees described in this Credit Agreement, and all payments in respect of any other Obligations shall be allocated among such other Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein. Agent Bank shall promptly distribute, but in any event within one (1) Banking Business Day, to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or on the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Agent Bank shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from the Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by Lenders as they may elect, in writing in accordance with Section 11.01, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower or any other Person. All payments or other sums received by Agent Bank for the account of Lenders (including, without limitation, principal and interest payments, the proceeds of any and all insurance maintained with respect to any of the Collateral, and any and all condemnation proceeds with respect to any of the Collateral) shall not constitute property or assets of the Agent Bank and shall be held by Agent Bank, solely in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent for itself and the other Lenders, subject to the Loan Documents.
 
b.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has funded its Pro Rata Share of a Borrowing or Construction Disbursement which was previously a Non Pro Rata Borrowing, or all other Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the principal due in respect of such Non Pro Rata Borrowing or Construction Disbursement, all principal sums owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all principal, in respect of all Non Pro Rata Borrowing or Construction Disbursement in which the Defaulting Lender has not funded its Pro Rata Share. This provision governs only the relationship among Agent Bank, each Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligation of Borrower to repay all Borrowings and Construction Disbursements in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement. The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments or (iii) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters which are subject to
 
110

 
the consent or approval of the Requisite Lenders or all Lenders. No Nonusage Fees shall accrue in favor of, or be payable to, such Defaulting Lender from the date of any failure to fund Borrowings or Construction Disbursements or reimburse Agent Bank for any Liabilities and Costs as herein provided until such failure has been cured, and Agent Bank shall be entitled to (A) withhold or setoff, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Credit Agreement, and (B) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent Bank and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all Liabilities and Costs, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, which they may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender's failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Credit Agreement.
 
Section 10.05.  Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent Bank, any Affiliate of Agent Bank, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants, shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Agent Bank shall be liable for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent Bank shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith pursuant to Section 10.04, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Person to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled. Agent Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Credit Agreement, any of the Security Documentation or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; or for the financial condition of the Borrower or any of it Affiliates. Agent Bank shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.
 
Section 10.06.  Reliance. Agent Bank shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents, telecopies or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties
 
111

 
hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel for Borrower), independent public accountant and other experts selected by it.
 
Section 10.07.  Indemnification. To the extent that Agent Bank is not reimbursed and indemnified by Borrower, Lenders will reimburse, within ten (10) Banking Business Days after notice from Agent Bank, and indemnify and defend Agent Bank for and against any and all Liabilities and Costs which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it in any way relating to or arising out of this Credit Agreement, the Security Documentation or any of the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent Bank or under this Credit Agreement, the Security Documentation or any of the other Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Liabilities and Costs resulting from Agent Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 10.07 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. In the event that after payment and distribution of any amount by Agent Bank to Lenders, any Lender or third party, including Borrower, any creditor of Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy, recovers from Agent Bank any amount found to have been wrongfully paid to Agent Bank or disbursed by Agent Bank to Lenders, then Lenders, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares, shall reimburse Agent Bank for all such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent Bank shall not be obligated to advance Liabilities and Costs and may require the deposit by each Lender of its Pro Rata Share of any material Liabilities and Costs anticipated by Agent Bank before they are incurred or made payable.
 
Section 10.08.  Agent Individually. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Bank Facilities hereunder and the Borrowings and Construction Disbursements made by it, Agent Bank shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms "Lenders", "Requisite Lenders" or any similar terms may include Agent Bank in its individual capacity as a Lender or one of the Requisite Lenders, but Requisite Lenders shall not include Agent Bank solely in its capacity as Agent Bank and need not necessarily include Agent Bank in its capacity as a Lender. Agent Bank and any Lender and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if it were not acting as Agent Bank or Lender pursuant hereto.
 
Section 10.09.  Successor Agent Bank; Resignation of Agent Bank; Removal of Agent Bank.
 
a.  Agent Bank may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Banking Business Days' prior written notice to Lenders and Borrower, and shall automatically
 
112

 
cease to be Agent Bank hereunder in the event a petition in bankruptcy shall be filed by or against Agent Bank or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other Governmental Authority shall assume control of Agent Bank or Agent Bank's interests under the Bank Facilities. Further, Lenders (other than Agent Bank) may unanimously remove Agent Bank at any time upon the occurrence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct by Agent Bank by giving at least thirty (30) Banking Business Days' prior written notice to Agent Bank, Borrower and all other Lenders. Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent Bank of appointment pursuant to clause (b) or (c).
 
b.  Upon any such notice of resignation by or removal of Agent Bank, the Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent Bank which appointment shall be subject to Borrower's consent (other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default), which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any successor Agent Bank must be a bank (i) the senior debt obligations of which (or such bank's parent's senior unsecured debt obligations) are rated not less than Baa-2 by Moody's Investors Services, Inc. or a comparable rating by a rating agency acceptable to the Requisite Lenders and (ii) which has total assets in excess of Ten Billion Dollars ($10,000,000,000.00).
 
c.  If a successor Agent Bank shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) Banking Business Day period, the retiring or removed Agent Bank, with the consent of Borrower (other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default) (which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall then appoint a successor Agent Bank who shall meet the requirements described in subsection (b) above and who shall serve as Agent Bank until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders, with the consent of Borrower (other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default), appoint a successor Agent Bank as provided above.
 
Section 10.10.  Consent and Approvals.
 
a.  Each consent, approval, amendment, modification or waiver specifically enumerated in this Credit Agreement as conditioned upon the prior consent or approval of the Requisite Lenders shall be evidenced by a written consent or approval delivered to Agent Bank.
 
b.  Each consent, approval, amendment, modification or waiver specifically enumerated in Section 11.01 (i) through (iii) shall require the consent of all Lenders.
 
c.  In addition to the required consents or approvals, Agent Bank may at any time request instructions from the Requisite Lenders with respect to
 
113

 
any actions or approvals which, by the terms of this Credit Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents, Agent Bank is permitted or required to take or to grant without instructions from any Lenders, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent Bank shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Requisite Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent Bank as a result of Agent Bank acting or refraining from acting under this Credit Agreement, the Security Documentation or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or, where applicable, all Lenders. Agent Bank shall promptly notify each Lender at any time that the Requisite Lenders have instructed Agent Bank to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.
 
d.  Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent Bank at the direction or with the consent of the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement or any Loan Document, and the exercise by Agent Bank at the direction or with the consent of the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders, except for actions specifically requiring the approval of all Lenders. All communications from Agent Bank to Lenders requesting Lenders' determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, including notice of the Lender Reply Period described immediately hereinbelow, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such matter or thing may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Agent Bank by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Agent Bank's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within the number of Banking Business Days designated by Agent Bank in such request, which shall not be less than three (3) Banking Business Days (the "Lender Reply Period"). Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Agent Bank that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Agent Bank (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. With respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, Agent Bank shall submit its recommendation or determination for approval of or consent to such recommendation or determination to all Lenders and upon receiving the required approval or consent shall follow the course of action or determination recommended to
 
114

 
Lenders by Agent Bank or such other course of action recommended by the Requisite Lenders, and each non-responding Lender shall be deemed to have concurred with such recommended course of action.
 
Section 10.11.  Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral.
 
a.  Agent Bank is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Loan Document which may be necessary to perfect and maintain Liens of the Security Documentation upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. Agent Bank may make, and shall be reimbursed by Lenders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower, for, Protective Advance(s) during any one (1) calendar year with respect to the Collateral up to the sum of (i) amounts expended to pay real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Collateral, (ii) amounts expended to pay insurance premiums for policies of insurance related to such Collateral, and (iii) One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00). Protective Advances in excess of said sum during any calendar year for any Collateral shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders. In addition, Agent Bank is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, to waive the imposition of the late fees provided for in Section 2.14(a) up to a maximum of two (2) times per calendar year, including any extensions.
 
b.  Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent Bank, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Security Documentation granted to or held by Agent Bank upon any Collateral (i) upon Bank Facilities Termination and repayment and satisfaction of all Borrowings, Construction Disbursements, and all other Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement, or (ii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Agent Bank at the direction of all Lenders. Agent Bank shall not be required to execute any document to evidence the release of the Security Documentation granted to Agent Bank for the benefit of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon any Collateral if, in Agent Bank's opinion, such document would expose Agent Bank to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Security Documentation without recourse or warranty, and such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Security Documentation upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) any property which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.
 
c.  Except as provided in this Credit Agreement, Agent Bank shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Security Documentation granted to Agent Bank herein
 
115

 
or in any of the other Loan Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.
 
d.  Should Agent Bank (i) employ counsel for advice or other representation (whether or not any suit has been or shall be filed) with respect to any Collateral or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents, or the attempt to enforce any security interest or Security Documentation on any of the Collateral, or (ii) commence any proceeding or in any way seek to enforce its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether as a result thereof Agent Bank shall acquire title to any Collateral, either through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, each Lender, upon demand therefor from time to time, shall contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of the reasonable costs and/or expenses of any such advice or other representation, enforcement or acquisition, including, but not limited to, fees of receivers or trustees, court costs, title company charges, filing and recording fees, appraisers' fees and fees and expenses of attorneys to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by Borrower; provided that Agent Bank shall not be entitled to reimbursement of its attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in connection with the resolution of disputes between Agent Bank and other Lenders unless Agent Bank shall be the prevailing party in any such dispute. Any loss of principal and interest resulting from any Event of Default shall be shared by Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. It is understood and agreed that in the event Agent Bank determines it is necessary to engage counsel for Lenders from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, said counsel shall be selected by Agent Bank.
 
e.  In the event that all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by Agent Bank as the result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of Borrower's obligations, title to any such Collateral or any portion thereof shall be held in the name of Agent Bank or a nominee or subsidiary of Agent Bank, as agent, for the ratable benefit of Agent Bank and Lenders. Agent Bank shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Collateral (the "Post-Foreclosure Plan"), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Agent Bank that it objects to the recommended Post-Foreclosure Plan or any alternative Post-Foreclosure Plan as set forth below, within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such Post-Foreclosure Plan. In the event that the Requisite Lenders do not approve such Post-Foreclosure Plan, any Lender shall be permitted to submit an alternative Post-Foreclosure Plan to Agent Bank, and Agent Bank shall submit any and all such additional Post-Foreclosure Plans to the Lenders for evaluation and the approval of the Requisite Lenders. In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, Agent Bank shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Collateral acquired and administer all

transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents of the sale of such Collateral, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Collateral and paying the expenses of such Collateral; actions taken by Agent Bank with respect to the Collateral, which are not provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan. Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent Bank pursuant to the Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of such Collateral. In addition, Agent Bank shall render or cause to be rendered by the managing agent, to each of the Lenders, monthly, an income and expense statement for such Collateral, and each of the Lenders shall promptly contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Collateral, and such other expenses and operating reserves as Agent Bank shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the Post-Foreclosure Plan. To the extent there is net operating income from such Collateral, Agent Bank shall, in accordance with all applicable Gaming Laws and the Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Lenders acknowledge that if title to any Collateral is obtained by Agent Bank or its nominee, such Collateral will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated as soon as practicable. Agent Bank shall undertake to sell such Collateral, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders shall reasonably determine to be most advantageous. Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Collateral in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name Agent Bank, as agent for Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee. In such case, Agent Bank and Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage defining the rights of Lenders in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this Article X insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.
 
Section 10.12.  Lender Actions Against Collateral. Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower or any other obligor hereunder, under the Security Documentation or under any other Loan Documents with respect to exercising claims against or rights in any Collateral without the consent of the Requisite Lenders.
 
Section 10.13.  Ratable Sharing. Subject to Section 10.03 and 10.04, Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the Obligations, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in
 
117

 
accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary payment, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Obligations, or the Collateral, (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Obligations held by it which is greater than its Pro Rata Share of the payments on account of the Obligations, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such Obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such Obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 10.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. No Lender shall exercise any setoff, banker's lien or other similar right in respect to any Obligations without the prior written approval by Agent Bank.
 
Section 10.14.  Delivery of Documents. Agent Bank shall as soon as reasonably practicable distribute to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate counterpart signature page hereof, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, (i) copies of all documents to which such Lender is a party or of which is executed or held by Agent Bank on behalf of such Lender, (ii) all documents of which Agent Bank receives copies from Borrower pursuant to Article VI and Section 11.03, (iii) all other documents or information which Agent Bank is required to send to Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement, (iv) other information or documents received by Agent Bank at the request of any Lender, and (v) all notices received by Agent Bank pursuant to Section 5.20. In addition, within fifteen (15) Banking Business Days after receipt of a request in writing from a Lender for written information or documents provided by or prepared by Borrower, Agent Bank shall deliver such written information or documents to such requesting Lender if Agent Bank has possession of such written information or documents in its capacity as Agent Bank or as a Lender.
 
Section 10.15.  Notice of Events of Default. Agent Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (other than nonpayment of principal of or interest on the Bank Facilities) unless Agent Bank has received notice in writing from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, describing such event or condition and
 
118

 
expressly stating that such notice is a notice of a Default or Event of Default. Should Agent Bank receive such notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, or should Agent Bank send Borrower a notice of Default or Event of Default, Agent Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to each Lender.
 
 
ARTICLE XI  
 
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The following terms and conditions shall be applicable throughout the term of this Credit Agreement:
 
Section 11.01.  Amendments and Waivers. (a) No amend-ment or modification of any provision of this Credit Agreement shall be effective without the written agreement of the Requisite Lenders (after notice to all Lenders) and Borrower (except for rights and priorities of Lenders as amongst themselves as provided in Section 10.04(a) which do not require the consent of Borrower), and (b) no termination or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement, or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom (except as expressly provided in Section 10.11(a) with respect to waivers of late fees), shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders (after notice to all Lenders), which Requisite Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold at their sole discretion, except that the following amendments, modifications or waivers shall require the consent of all Lenders:
 
(i)  modify any requirement hereunder that any particular action be taken by all the Lenders or by the Requisite Lenders, modify this Section 11.01 or change the definition of "Requisite Lenders", or remove Agent Bank, without regard to the vote of Agent Bank as a Lender, under Section 10.09(a), shall be effective unless consented to by all of the Lenders;
 
(ii)  increase the amount of the C/T Loan or the Aggregate RLC Commitment or the Syndication Interest of any Lender, release any Collateral except as specifically provided in the Credit Agreement, release CCI from the Completion Guaranty, extend the Maturity Date or change any provision expressly requiring the consent of all Lenders; or
 
(iii)  reduce any fees described in Section 2.13 or extend the due date for, or reduce or postpone the amount of, any required principal reduction on the Bank Facilities, or reduce the rate of interest or postpone the payment of interest on the Bank Facilities, shall be made without the consent of all of the Lenders.
 
119

In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination, consent or waiver requiring the consent of all Lenders as set forth in (i) through (iii) above, if the consent of the Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 11.01 being referred to as a "Non-Consenting Lender"), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as the Agent Bank is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower's request, the Lender that is acting as the Agent Bank or an Eligible Assignee that is acceptable to the Agent Bank (in either case the "Purchasing Lender") shall have the right with the Agent Bank's consent and in the Agent Bank's sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the Agent Bank's request, sell and assign to the Purchasing Lender all of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all of its rights and obligations in the Bank Facilities) for an amount equal to the Non-Consenting Lender's Syndication Interest in the Funded Outstandings and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale (or such other amounts as may be agreed upon by the Non-Consenting Lender and the Purchasing Lender). In such event, such Non-Consenting Lender and such Purchasing Lender agree to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to reflect such purchase and sale, but regardless of whether such Assignment and Assumption Agreement is executed by such Non-Consenting Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender's rights hereunder, except rights under Section 5.14 (i.e. Indemnification by the Borrower) and 11.14 (i.e. Arbitration) with respect to actions prior to such date, shall cease from and after the date of presentation of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement duly executed by such Purchasing Lender and tender by the Purchasing Lender of the amount of the purchase price.

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Article X or any other provision referring to Agent Bank shall be effective without the written concurrence of Agent Bank, but only if such amendment, modification, termination or waiver alters the obligations or rights of Agent Bank. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 11.01 shall be binding on each assignee, transferee or recipient of Agent Bank's or any Lender's Syndication Interest under this Credit Agreement or the Bank Facilities at the time outstanding. No modification of Section 2.10 shall be made without the consent of the L/C Issuer.
 
Section 11.02.  Failure to Exercise Rights. Nothing herein contained shall impose upon Banks or Borrower any obligation to enforce any terms, covenants or conditions contained herein. Failure of Banks or Borrower, in any one or more instances, to insist upon strict performance by Borrower or Banks of any terms, covenants or
 
120

 
conditions of this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, shall not be considered or taken as a waiver or relinquishment by Banks or Borrower of their right to insist upon and to enforce in the future, by injunction or other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, strict compliance by Borrower or Banks with all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The consent of Banks or Borrower to any act or omission by Borrower or Banks shall not be construed to be a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission or to waive the requirement for Banks' or Borrower's consent to be obtained in any future or other instance.
 
Section 11.03.  Notices and Delivery.
 
a.  The Borrower agrees that the Agent Bank may make any material delivered by the Borrower to the Agent Bank, as well as any amendments, waivers, consents, and other written information, documents, instruments and other materials relating to the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any other materials or matters relating to this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the "Communications") available to the Lenders by posting such notices on an electronic delivery system (which may be provided by the Agent Bank, an Affiliate of the Agent Bank, or any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Agent Bank), such as IntraLinks, or a substantially similar electronic system (the "Platform"). The Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" and (iii) neither the Agent Bank nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, sufficiency, or sequencing of the Communications posted on the Platform. The Agent Bank and its Affiliates expressly disclaim with respect to the Platform any liability for errors in transmission, incorrect or incomplete downloading, delays in posting or delivery, or problems accessing the Communications posted on the Platform and any liability for any losses, costs, expenses or liabilities that may be suffered or incurred in connection with the Platform. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Agent Bank or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform.
 
b.  Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a "Notice") specifying that any Communication has been posted to the Platform shall for purposes of this Credit Agreement constitute effective delivery to such Lender of such information, documents or other materials comprising such Communication. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify, on or before the date such Lender
 
121

 
becomes a party to this Credit Agreement, the Agent Bank in writing of such Lender's e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Agent Bank has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.
 
c.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Communications may be personally served, faxed or sent by courier service or United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon receipt of a facsimile (or on the next Banking Business Day if such facsimile is received on a non-Banking Business Day or after 5:00 p.m. on a Banking Business Day) or four (4) Banking Business Days after deposit in the United States mail (registered or certified, with postage prepaid and properly addressed). Notices to Agent Bank pursuant to Articles II shall not be effective until received by Agent Bank.
 
d.  For the purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is delivered as provided in this Section 11.03) shall be as set forth below each party's name on the signature pages hereof, or, as to each party, at such other address as may be designated by such party in an Assignment and Assumption Agreement or in a written notice to all of the other parties. All non-electronic deliveries to be made to Agent Bank for distribution to the Lenders shall be made to Agent Bank at the addresses specified for notice on the signature page hereto and in addition, a sufficient number of copies of each such delivery shall be delivered to Agent Bank for delivery to each Lender at the address specified for deliveries on the signature page hereto or such other address as may be designated by Agent Bank in a written notice.
 
Section 11.04.  Modification in Writing. This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior agreements whether written or oral with respect to the subject matter hereof, including, but not limited to, any term sheets furnished by any of the Banks to Borrower. Neither this Credit Agreement, nor any other Loan Documents, nor any provision herein, or therein, may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.
 
Section 11.05.  Other Agreements. If the terms of any documents, certificates or agreements delivered in connection with this Credit Agreement are inconsistent with the terms of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall use its best efforts to amend such document, certificate or agreement to the satisfaction of Agent Bank to remove such inconsistency.
 
Section 11.06.  Counterparts. To facilitate execution, this Credit Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or
 
122

 
required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Credit Agreement to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature page to any counterpart may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the signatures thereon and thereafter attached to another counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature pages.
 
Section 11.07.  Rights, Powers and Remedies are Cumulative. None of the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon or reserved to Agent Bank, Banks or Borrower in this Credit Agreement are intended to be exclusive of any other available right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and not alternative, and shall be in addition to every right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute. Any forbearance, delay or omission by Agent Bank, Banks or Borrower in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be considered or taken as a waiver or relinquishment of the right to insist upon and to enforce in the future, by injunction or other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, any of said rights, powers and remedies given to Agent Bank, Banks or Borrower herein. The exercise of any right or partial exercise thereof by Agent Bank, Banks or Borrower shall not preclude the further exercise thereof and the same shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived by an instrument in writing executed by Agent Bank or Banks, as the case may be.
 
Section 11.08.  Continuing Representations. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the making of the Bank Facilities hereunder and the execution and delivery of each other Loan Document until and final payment of all sums owing under the Bank Facilities and the Bank Facilities have been irrevocably terminated.
 
Section 11.09.  Successors and Assigns. All of the terms, covenants, warranties and conditions contained in this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
 
Section 11.10.  Assignment of Loan Documents by Borrower or Syndication Interests by Lenders.
 
a.  This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, the Agent Bank, each of the Banks, and their respective successors and assigns, except
 
123

 
that, Borrower may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all the Lenders. Any attempted assignment or delegation in contravention of the foregoing shall be null and void. Any Lender may at any time pledge its Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities, the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release that Lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge.
 
b.  Each Lender may assign all or any part of its Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities to any Affiliate of such Lender which is an Eligible Assignee or to any other Lender without consent and to one or more financial institutions that are Eligible Assignees with the prior consent of the Agent Bank and Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and remains continuing), which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the minimum amount of each such assignment shall be Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00), or such lesser amount as constitutes the remaining amount of a Lender's Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities (except that there shall be no minimum assignment among the Lenders or to their Affiliates), and each assignee Lender (or assignor if so agreed between the assignee Lender and such assignor) shall pay to the Agent Bank an assignment fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500.00) with respect to each such assignment. Each such assignment shall be evidenced by an assignment substantially in the form of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee financial institution shall become a Lender for all purposes under the Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents and the assigning Lender shall be released from its further obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment. Agent Bank agrees to give prompt notice to Borrower of each assignment made under this Section 11.10(b) and to deliver to Borrower each revision to the Schedule of Lenders' Proportions in Bank Facilities made as a consequence of each such assignment. In no event may any Lender sell all or any portion of its Syndication Interest in the C/T Loan or in the Revolving Credit Facility separate and apart from its Syndication Interest in the other. Each Lender shall at all times until Bank Facilities Termination hold an equal Syndication Interest in each of the C/T Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility.
 
c.  Each Lender may sell participations for all or any part of its Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities; provided, however, that (i) such Lender shall remain responsible for its total obligations under the Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents, (ii) the Borrower and the Agent Bank shall continue to deal solely with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents, and (iii) such Lender shall not sell any participation under which the participant would have rights to approve any amendment or waiver relating to the Credit Agreement or any Loan Document except to the extent
 
124

 
any such amendment or waiver would (w) extend the final Maturity Date or the date for the payment or any installments of fees, principal or interest due in respect of the Bank Facilities, (x) reduce the interest rates or fees applicable to the Bank Facilities or (y) release any material portion of the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights of the Lenders to make assignments and to grant participations shall be subject to the approval by the Gaming Authorities of the assignee or participant, to the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, and to applicable securities laws.
 
d.  In the event any Lender is found unsuitable as a Lender under the Bank Facilities by the Colorado Gaming Authorities ("Unsuitable Lender"): (a) Agent Bank shall use its best efforts to find a replacement Lender, (b) Borrower shall have the right to prepay the C/T Loan and reduce the Aggregate RLC Commitment by the amount of the Syndication Interest held by the Unsuitable Lender, and any payments required in connection with such prepayment and reduction shall be made to the Unsuitable Lender and not on a pro rata basis to all Lenders until a replacement Lender, if any, commits to acquire the Syndication Interest of the Unsuitable Lender, at which time the balance of the C/T Loan and the Aggregate RLC Commitment shall be increased by the amount of the prepayment and reduction, and (c) upon full payment of all outstanding amounts of principal and interest owing it, such Unsuitable Lender shall execute such documents as may be required by Agent Bank, Borrower or any applicable gaming authorities to evidence the termination of its Syndication Interest in the Bank Facilities.
 
Section 11.11.  Action by Lenders. Whenever Banks shall have the right to make an election, or to exercise any right, or their consent shall be required for any action under this Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, then such election, exercise or consent shall be given or made for all Banks by Agent Bank in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.01. Notices, reports and other documents required to be given by Borrower to Banks hereunder may be given by Borrower to Agent Bank on behalf of Banks, with sufficient copies for distribution to each of the Banks, and the delivery to Agent Bank shall constitute delivery to Banks. In the event any payment or payments are received by a Lender other than Agent Bank, Borrower consents to such payments being shared and distributed as provided herein.
 
Section 11.12.  Time of Essence. Time shall be of the essence of this Credit Agreement.
 
Section 11.13.  Choice of Law and Forum. This Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada without regard to principles of conflicts of law; provided, however, that Colorado law shall govern the perfection and enforcement of the Security Documentation. Borrower further agrees that the full and exclusive forum for the determination of any action relating to this Credit Agreement, the Loan
 
125

 
Documents, or any other document or instrument delivered in favor of Banks pursuant to the terms hereof, other than the Security Documentation, shall be either an appropriate Court of the State of Nevada or the United States District Court or United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada. The full and exclusive forum for the determination of any action relating to the Security Documentation or the Collateral shall either be an appropriate court of the State of Colorado or the United States District or the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado.
 
Section 11.14.  Arbitration.
 
a.  Upon the request of any party, whether made before or after the institution of any legal proceeding, any action, dispute, claim or controversy of any kind (e.g., whether in contract or in tort, statutory or common law, legal or equitable) ("Dispute") now existing or hereafter arising between the parties in any way arising out of, pertaining to or in connection with the Credit Agreement, Loan Documents or any related agreements, documents, or instruments (collectively the "Documents"), may, by summary proceedings (e.g., a plea in abatement or motion to stay further proceedings), bring an action in court to compel arbitration of any Dispute.
 
b.  All Disputes between the parties shall be resolved by binding arbitration governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
 
c.  No provision of, nor the exercise of any rights under this arbitration clause shall limit the rights of any party, and the parties shall have the right during any Dispute, to seek, use and employ ancillary or preliminary remedies, judicial or otherwise, for the purposes of realizing upon, preserving, protecting or foreclosing upon any property, real or personal, which is involved in a Dispute, or which is subject to, or described in, the Documents, including, without limitation, rights and remedies relating to: (i) foreclosing against any real or personal property collateral or other security by the exercise of a power of sale under the Security Documentation or other security agreement or instrument, or applicable law, (ii) exercising self-help remedies (including setoff rights) or (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies such as injunctive relief, sequestration, attachment, garnishment or the appointment of a receiver from a court having jurisdiction before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of provisional or ancillary remedies or exercise of self-help remedies shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the Dispute to arbitration nor render inapplicable the compulsory arbitration provision hereof.
 
Section 11.15.  Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER AND EACH OF THE BANKS EACH MUTUALLY
 
126

 
HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, DEMAND, OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF BORROWER AND BANKS WITH RESPECT TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER AND EACH OF THE BANKS EACH MUTUALLY AGREE THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, DEMAND, OR PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE DEFENDING PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT OR OTHER TRIBUNAL AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE COMPLAINING PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
 
Section 11.16.  Scope of Approval and Review. Any inspection of the Casino Facility or other documents shall be deemed to be made solely for Banks' internal purposes and shall not be relied upon by the Borrower or any third party. In no event shall Lenders be deemed or construed to be joint venturers or partners of Borrower.
 
Section 11.17.  Severability of Provisions. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Credit Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
 
Section 11.18.  Cumulative Nature of Covenants. All covenants contained herein are cumulative and not exclusive of each other covenant. Any action allowed by any covenant shall be allowed only if such action is not prohibited by any other covenant.
 
Section 11.19.  Costs to Prevailing Party. If any action or arbitration proceeding is brought by any party against any other party under this Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover such costs and attorney's fees as the court in such action or proceeding may adjudge reasonable.
 
Section 11.20.  Expenses.
 
a.  Generally. Borrower agrees upon demand to pay, or reimburse Agent Bank for, all of Agent Bank's documented reasonable out-of-pocket
 
127

 
costs and expenses of every type and nature (including travel expenses incurred by Agent Bank both before and after the Closing Date in connection with the sale of Syndication Interests in the Bank Facilities) incurred by Agent Bank at any time (whether prior to, on or after the date of this Credit Agreement) in connection with (i) any requests for consent, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document made by Borrower; (ii) the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article III), the Security Documentation and the other Loan Documents and the advance of Borrowings; (iii) the subordination of any Collateral, including title charges, recording fees and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection therewith; (iv) any appraisals performed after the occurrence of an Event of Default; (v) the creation, perfection or protection of the Security Documentation on the Collateral (including, without limitation, any fees and expenses for title and lien searches, local counsel in various jurisdictions, filing and recording fees and taxes, duplication costs and corporate search fees); (vi) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent Bank in connection with the sale of Syndication Interests in the Bank Facilities; and (vii) the protection, collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations or the Collateral, including Protective Advances.
 
b.  After Event of Default. Borrower further agrees to pay, or reimburse Agent Bank and Lenders, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by Agent Bank or Lenders after the occurrence of an Event of Default (i) in enforcing any Obligation or in foreclosing against the Collateral or exercising or enforcing any other right or remedy available by reason of such Event of Default; (ii) in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Credit Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding; (iii) in commencing, defending or intervening in any litigation or in filing a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings in any legal proceeding relating to Borrower and related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby; (iv) in taking any other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding (whether in bankruptcy or otherwise); (v) in protecting, preserving, collecting, leasing, selling, taking possession of, or liquidating any of the Collateral; or (vi) in attempting to enforce or enforcing any lien in any of the Collateral or any other rights under the Security Documentation.
 
Section 11.21.  Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Agent Bank provided by law, if any Event of Default exists, Agent Bank is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by Agent Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all
 
128

 
obligations of Borrower under the Bank Facilities, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent Bank shall have made demand under this Credit Agreement or any Loan Document and although such amounts owed may be contingent or unmatured. Agent Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrower (and Agent Bank shall promptly notify each other Lender) after any such setoff and application made by Agent Bank; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of Agent Bank under this Section 11.21 are in addition to the other rights and remedies which Agent Bank may have.
 
Section 11.22.  Confidentiality.

R_E_C_I_T_A_L_S:

WHEREAS:

Now, therefore, in and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Subordinator, the Subordinator hereby agrees as follows:
 
1.  The Company has entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of November 18, 2005 (as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") with the Lenders therein named (each, together with their respective successors and assigns, individually being referred to herein as a "Lender" and collectively as the "Lenders"), WELLS FARGO BANK, National Association, as the issuer of Letters of Credit (herein, in such capacity, called the "L/C Issuer") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders and L/C Issuer (herein, in such capacity, the "Agent Bank" and, together with the Lenders and L/C Issuer, collectively referred to as the "Banks"), under the terms of which Banks agreed to establish and fund a construction and term loan ("C/T Loan") in the amount of Thirty-Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($32,500,000.00) and a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility" and, together with the C/T Loan, collectively, the "Bank Facilities") in the initial principal amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) at any time outstanding, all subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The C/T Loan is evidenced by a
 
                                                                                                           EXHIBIT E

Construction and Term Note ("C/T Note") in the principal sum of Thirty-Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($32,500,000.00). The Revolving Credit Facility is evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note (the "Revolving Credit Note" and, together with the C/T Note, collectively, the "Bank Notes") in the principal sum of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) executed by the Borrower, payable to the order of Agent Bank on behalf of Lenders.
 
2.  The Subordinated Note may not be transferred or assigned by Subordinator without the prior written consent of Agent Bank and, unless so transferred or assigned, shall be owned by Subordinator at all times free and clear of any lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance.
 
3.  So long as any monetary obligation or other obligation or commitment to advance funds under the Credit Agreement, the Bank Notes or any other Loan Document, as defined in the Credit Agreement (as such obligations may be amended, modified, restated, renewed, increased or extended, including, without limitation, post petition interest whether or not allowed in any insolvency proceedings, and fees, attorneys costs and indemnities under the Loan Documents, collectively referred to herein as the "Bank Debt") shall remain unpaid or unfunded, in whole or in part, the Subordinator may not:
 
(a)  [Insert Payment Restrictions]; or
 
(b)  Receive any payment of interest, directly or indirectly, on the Subordinated Debt, if:
 
(i)  a Default or Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement, shall have occurred and is continuing under any Bank Debt; or
 
(ii)  the making of such payment would create a Default or Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement.
 
 
4.  In the event that any such payments of principal and/or interest are made in violation of the foregoing provisions, such payments shall not be accepted by Subordinator and, if so accepted, shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to Agent Bank. The subordination provisions set forth hereinabove are made for the benefit of Banks and it is understood by Company and by Subordinator that Banks will take certain actions in reliance upon such subordination provisions.

5.  (a)In the event of:
 
(i)  any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition or other similar proceeding relating to any of the Borrower, its creditors or its property;
 
(ii)  any proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Borrower, voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving insolvency, reorganization or bankruptcy proceedings;
 
(iii)  any assignment by Borrower for the benefit of creditors; or
 
(iv)  any other marshalling of the assets of Borrower;
 
all Bank Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings and any other sums or premium due) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made on account of any Subordinated Debt or the Subordinated Loan Documents and any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property which would otherwise, but for these subordination provisions, be payable or deliverable in respect of Subordinated Debt or the Subordinated Loan Documents shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of Bank Debt until all Bank Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.

The Subordinator shall file in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law, all claims which the Subordinator may have against any of the Borrower relating to any Subordinated Debt and will assign to the holders of the Bank Debt all rights of the Subordinator thereunder. If Subordinator does not file any such claim, the holder of the Bank Debt as attorney-in-fact for Subordinator is hereby authorized to do so in the name of Subordinator or, in such holder's discretion, to assign the claim to a nominee and to cause proof of claim to be filed in the name of such holder's nominee. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. The holder of the Bank Debt or its nominee shall have the sole right to accept or reject any plan proposed in any such proceeding and to take any other action which a party filing a claim is entitled to do. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to the holder of the Bank Debt the amount payable on such claim and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, the Subordinator hereby assigns to the holder of the Bank Debt all of the Subordinator's rights to any such payments or distributions to which the Subordinator would otherwise be entitled.
 
 
3

(b) If any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be received by the Subordinator in contravention of any of the terms hereof and before all Bank Debt shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holder of Bank Debt at the time outstanding for application to the payment of all Bank Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Bank Debt in full. In the event of the failure of the Subordinator to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Bank Debt is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same.

(c) The Bank Debt shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holder thereof shall have indefeasibly received cash in lawful currency of the United States of America equal to the amount of Bank Debt then outstanding, together with the occurrence of Bank Facilities Termination, as defined in the Credit Agreement.

(d) The Subordinator will take such action (including, without limitation, the execution and filing of a financing statement with respect to this Agreement and including the execution, verification, delivery and filing of proofs of claim, consents, assignments or other instructions which the holder of Bank Debt may reasonably require in order to prove and realize upon any rights or claims pertaining to Subordinated Debt and to effectuate the full benefit of the subordination contained herein) as may, in the opinion of counsel designated by the Agent Bank, be reasonably necessary or appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination effected by these provisions.

(e) The Subordinator understands and acknowledges by its execution hereof that the actions of the Lenders in connection with the Bank Debt are being or have been made in reliance upon the subordination of the Subordinated Debt to Bank Debt as set forth herein.
 
6.  Subordination Legend; Further Assurances. The Company and the Subordinator will cause each note and instrument (if any) evidencing the Subordinated Debt to be endorsed with the following legend:
 
 
"The Indebtedness evidenced by this instrument is subordinated to the prior payment in cash in full of all Bank Debt (as defined in the Payment Subordination Agreement, dated as of _____________, 200__) pursuant to, and to the extent provided in, the Payment Subordination Agreement by the maker hereof and payee named herein in favor of the Agent Bank therein named and its successors and assigns."
 
The Company and Subordinator each hereby agree to mark its respective books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper notice of the effect of this
 
 
4

Agreement. The Company and the Subordinator will at their expense and at any time and from time to time promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action that may be necessary or that the Agent Bank may reasonably request in order to protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereunder or to enable the Agent Bank to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.
 
7.  Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement:
 
(a)  This Agreement shall continue in effect so long as any Bank Debt shall remain unpaid and no action that the holder of the Bank Debt or any of the Borrower, with or without the written consent of the holder of the Bank Debt, may take or refrain from taking with respect to any Bank Debt, any instrument representing the same, any Collateral (as defined in the Credit Agreement) therefor, or any agreement or agreements, including guaranties, in connection therewith, shall affect this Agreement or the obligations of the Subordinator hereunder.
 
(b)  All rights and interests of the Banks hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Subordinator and the Company under this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
 
(i)  any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, the Bank Notes or any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;
 
(ii)  any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Bank Debt, or any other amendment, modification, revision, restatement, extension or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Credit Agreement, the Bank Notes or any other Loan Document;
 
(iii)  any taking and holding of Collateral or other security or additional guarantees for all or any of the Bank Debt; or any amendment, alteration, exchange, substitution, restatement, transfer, enforcement, waiver, subordination, termination or release of any Collateral or such guarantees, or any non-perfection of any Collateral, or any consent to departure from any such guaranty;
 
(iv)  any manner of application of Collateral or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Bank Debt, or the manner of sale of any Collateral or other security;
 
 
5

(v)  any consent by any of the Banks or any other Person to the change, restructure or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Borrower or the Subordinator, or any Subsidiary thereof and any corresponding restructure of the Bank Debt, or any other restructure or refinancing of the Bank Debt or any portion thereof;
 
(vi)  any modification, compounding, compromise, settlement, release by the Banks or any of them or any other Person (or by operation of law or otherwise), collection or other liquidation of the Bank Debt or of the Collateral or other security in whole or in part, and any refusal of payment to any Bank in whole or in part, from any obligor or guarantor in connection with any of the Bank Debt, whether or not with notice to, or further assent by, or any reservation of rights against the Subordinator; or
 
(vii)  any other circumstance (including, but not limited to, any statute of limitations) which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of the Borrower or the Subordinator.
 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Subordinator hereby consents to and agrees that the rights of each Bank hereunder, and the enforceability hereof, shall not be affected by any release of any Collateral or security from the liens and security interests created by any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement whether for purposes of sales or other dispositions of assets or for any other purpose. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Bank Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
 
(c)  The Subordinator waives the right to require the Banks to proceed against the Borrower or any other person liable on the Bank Debt, to proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower or any other person, or to pursue any other remedy in the Banks' power whatsoever and the Subordinator waives the right to have the property of the Borrower first applied to the discharge of the Bank Debt. The Banks may, at their election, exercise any right or remedy they may have against the Borrower or any security held by the Banks, including, without limitation, the right to foreclosure upon any such security by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, without affecting or impairing in any way the obligations of the Subordinator hereunder, except to the extent the Bank Debt has been paid, and the Subordinator waives any defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation or any other right or remedy of the Subordinator against the
 
 
                                                                                                              6

 
Borrower or any such security, whether resulting from such election by the Banks or otherwise. The Subordinator waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including, without limitation, any intervention or omission by the Lender) of the liability either in whole or in part, of the Borrower to the Banks for the Bank Debt.
 
(d)  Until the Bank Debt is fully and indefeasibly paid, the Subordinator shall not proceed against the Company for the recovery of all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt, or proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Company or any other person, or pursue any other right or remedy in the Subordinator's power whatsoever for the collection of all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt.
 
8.  In case of a breach by the Subordinator of this Agreement, the Subordinator hereby agrees to be responsible for and to pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs and accountants' fees, incurred by the holder of the Bank Debt in connection with the enforcement by the holder of the Bank Debt of its rights or the protection of the holder of the Bank Debt of its interests as a result of such breach under this Agreement, whether incurred pre-trial, at trial or on appeal.
 
9.  Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
 
10.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Nevada.

11.  Arbitration.
 
(a)  Upon the request of any party, whether made before or after the institution of any legal proceeding, any action, dispute, claim or controversy of any kind (e.g., whether in contract or in tort, statutory or common law, legal or equitable) ("Dispute") now existing or hereafter arising between the parties in any way arising out of, pertaining to or in connection with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, Bank Notes, Loan Documents or any related agreements, documents, or instruments (collectively the "Documents"), may, by summary proceedings (e.g., a plea in abatement or motion to stay further proceedings), bring an action in court to compel arbitration of any Dispute.
 
7

(b)  All Disputes between the parties shall be resolved by binding arbitration governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
 
(c)  No provision of, nor the exercise of any rights under this arbitration clause shall limit the rights of any party, and the parties shall have the right during any Dispute, to seek, use and employ ancillary or preliminary remedies, judicial or otherwise, for the purposes of realizing upon, preserving, protecting or foreclosing upon any property, real or personal, which is involved in a Dispute, or which is subject to, or described in, the Documents, including, without limitation, rights and remedies relating to: (i) foreclosing against any real or personal property collateral or other security by the exercise of a power of sale under the Documents or other security agreement or instrument, or applicable law, (ii) exercising self-help remedies (including setoff rights) or (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies such as injunctive relief, sequestration, attachment, garnishment or the appointment of a receiver from a court having jurisdiction before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration.

Attn: Ryan Edde, V.P.

Re:
Credit Agreement dated as of November 18, 2005 (the "Credit Agreement"), by and among CC Tollgate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Borrower"), the Lenders therein named (each, together with their respective successors and assigns, individually being referred to as a "Lender" and collectively as the "Lenders"), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the issuer of Letters of Credit (herein, in such capacity, called the "L/C Issuer") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as sole lead arranger, administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders and L/C Issuer (herein, in such capacity, called the "Agent Bank" and, together with the Lenders and L/C Issuer, collectively referred to as the "Banks")

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are special Colorado counsel to Borrower and Century Casinos, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CCI") and have acted in such capacity in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and each of the Loan Documents. This opinion is delivered to you at the request of Borrower pursuant to Section 3.06 of the Credit Agreement for the reliance of each of the Banks and their respective successors and assigns.
 
 
EXHIBIT G

All capitalized terms which are used herein, and which are not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning which is set forth by Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement.

We have examined:
 
1.  
the Credit Agreement;

the Revolving Credit Note;

the Construction and Term Promissory Note;
 
4.  
the Completion Guaranty

15.  
the Assignment of Garage General Contractor’s Agreement; (Documents 1 to 15, inclusive, are referred to hereinafter as the "Loan Documents.")

16.  
Articles of Organization and Operating Agreement for Borrower;
 
17.  
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws for Century Casinos Tollgate, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CCTI");
 
18.  
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws for CCI;

Good Standing Certificates of Borrower, CCTI and CCI from the Delaware Secretary of State and of Borrower and CCTI from the Colorado Secretary of State;
 
20.  
Resolutions of the Managers of Borrower and CCTI certified by an Officer of CCTI;
 
21.  
Resolution of CCI authorizing the execution of the Completion Guaranty; and
 
22.  
Certificate of the Incumbency of Borrower’s Officer and Authorized Manager by an Officer of CCTI.
 
We have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures (other than the signature of members or officers signing on behalf of Borrower or its manager CCTI and CCI), the legal capacity of natural persons and the conformity to originals of all copies of all documents submitted to us. We have relied upon the certificates of all public officials and corporate officers with respect to the accuracy of all matters contained therein.

As used herein, the phrase "the best of our knowledge" means only such actual knowledge as we have obtained from consultation with attorneys presently in our firm whom we have determined are likely, in the ordinary course of their respective duties, to have knowledge of the matters covered by such opinions. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, we have not conducted any other investigation or review in connection with the opinions rendered herein, including without limitation a review of any of our files or the files of Borrower.

We are not expressing any opinion as to the effect of the compliance or noncompliance of any of the Banks with any state or federal laws or regulations which are applicable because of the legal or regulatory status, or the nature of the business of any of the Banks.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. Borrower is a limited liability company and each of CCI and CCTI is a corporation, each duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of Borrower, CCTI and CCI (i) have all requisite power to execute and deliver the Loan Documents, to consummate the transactions and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and to own and operate the Casino Facility, and (ii) have taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.


2. Each of Borrower, CCTI and CCI have duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the taking of any and all action necessary to carry out and give effect to the transactions contemplated to be performed under the Loan Documents.

3. Neither the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents, or the compliance with or performance of the terms and conditions in the Loan Documents, conflicts in any material respect with, or will result in a material breach or violation of, or a material default (with due notice or lapse of time or both) under, or the creation or imposition of any lien, charge, or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of their respective property or assets by virtue of, the terms, conditions or provisions of (a) the Articles of Organization or Operating Agreement of Borrower, (b) the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of CCTI or CCI, (c) to the best of our knowledge any indenture, evidence of indebtedness, loan or financing agreement, or other agreement or instrument of whatever nature to which Borrower or CCI is a party or by which Borrower or CCI is bound, (d) any provision of any existing Colorado law or regulation, or (e) to the best of our knowledge any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Colorado court or Colorado Governmental Authority to which Borrower or CCI is subject, where in the case of (a), (b), (c) or (d) above such breach, violation or default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

4. Each of the Loan Documents to be executed by the Borrower have been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

5. The Completion Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by CCI and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of CCI enforceable against CCI in accordance with its terms.

6. The Deed of Trust has been fully executed and delivered and will, when recorded in the office of the County Recorder of Gilpin County, Colorado, create a valid and legally binding: (i) encumbrance lien on the real property Collateral therein described; and (ii) security interest in the personal property Collateral therein described. No other filing or other registration of any document or instrument is necessary or advisable to protect the priority of the lien so created in the real property Collateral and it is not necessary to re-file or re-record the Deed of Trust in order to maintain such priority until ten years after the debt secured by the Deed of Trust according to the terms thereof or any recorded extension thereof becomes wholly due. Although there is no case law on point, we believe that in the case of installment obligations the above-mentioned ten year period runs from the due date of the last installment.


7. Upon the filing of the Financing Statement listing the FF&E and other Collateral therein described, in the office of the Secretary of State of Delaware, the security interest granted by the Deed of Trust will be perfected to the extent that such security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement in Delaware under the Delaware and Colorado Uniform Commercial Code, and no refiling or re-recording of such Financing Statement is required in order to maintain the security interest of Agent Bank in said Collateral, except continuation statements which are required to be filed within six (6) months prior to the expiration of five (5) years from the date of the filing of the original Financing Statement. The security interest of the Lender in that portion of the Collateral described in the Deed of Trust which constitutes fixtures will be perfected upon the recording of the Deed of Trust in the County Recorder of Gilpin County, Colorado.

8. It is not necessary under any Gaming Law by reason of the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents, that Agent Bank or any of the Banks be licensed, qualified or authorized to carry on business in any such jurisdiction. All necessary authorizations, consents and approvals of all applicable Gaming Authorities have been procured by Borrower for the execution and delivery by them of the Loan Documents, and for the advance of Borrowings and Construction Disbursements under the Credit Agreement, and for the performance by Borrower of its obligations, under the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

9. The transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement will not violate the usury laws of the State of Colorado.

10. A court of the State of Colorado (or a federal court sitting in the State of Colorado) in a properly presented case should give effect to the choice of Nevada law set forth in the Loan Documents stated to be governed by Nevada law, except as to certain provisions of law that may constitute mandatory provisions of law or that may embody a strong public policy of the State of Colorado or with respect to which there may exist a strong governmental interest in the application of the laws of the State of Colorado. The foregoing opinion is based on the assumptions that:

a. The Loan Documents provide that they are governed by the internal laws of the State of Nevada; and

b. In selecting the laws of the State of Nevada to govern the Loan Documents, the Banks acted in good faith and without an intent to evade the law. The transactions described in the Loan Documents bear a substantial relationship to Nevada and a reasonable basis exists for the choice of Nevada law to govern the Loan Documents.


The opinions set forth in Paragraphs (6) and (7) above are further subject to the additional qualifications that: (a) the enforcement of the Loan Documents may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereinafter in effect relating to creditors' rights generally; (b) certain of the provisions contained in the Loan Documents may be unenforceable in whole or in part, to the extent that any such provision may contravene the public policy of the State of Nevada or State of Colorado, as applicable; and (c) certain waivers contained in the Loan Documents may be unenforceable in whole or in part under the laws of the State of Nevada or State of Colorado, as applicable, but the inclusion of such provisions, as described in (b) and (c) above, does not affect the validity of such Loan Documents and such Loan Documents contain adequate provisions for enforcing payment of all monetary obligations thereunder and for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby, provided such enforcement is conducted in accordance with the procedures established by the laws of the State of Nevada or State of Colorado, as applicable. We express no opinion as to the title to any real or personal property, or as to the priority of any lien or security interest created by any of the Loan Documents.

I.  The provisions of Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement shall be applied to this Agreement in the same manner as applied therein to the Credit Agreement.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Lenders' consent to the Management Agreement, the mutual benefits accruing to the parties hereto and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do promise, covenant and agree as follows:
 
1.  That Banks would not consent to the Management Agreement and establish the Bank Facilities but for this Agreement.
 
2.  That the Security Documentation securing the Bank Facilities in favor of Banks and any and all renewals, amendments, modifications, restatements and extensions thereof shall unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien or charge on the Collateral and business operations conducted in connection therewith prior and superior to all right, title and interest which Operator may have or hereafter acquire therein under the terms of the Management Agreement. Operator acknowledges that it is familiar with the terms and conditions of all of the Security Documentation and hereby consents to execution, delivery, filing and recording thereof. In this regard it is understood and hereby agreed that, notwithstanding anything contained in the Management Agreement to the contrary, upon the consummation of any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Management Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect.

(a)  if a Default or Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement, shall have occurred and is continuing under any Bank Debt; or
 
(b)  if the making of such payment would create a Default or Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement.
 
4.  In the event that any such payments or Management Fees are made in violation of Section 3 hereinabove, such payments shall not be accepted by Operator and, if so accepted, shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to Agent Bank.

(b) If any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be received by Operator in contravention of any of the terms hereof and before all Bank Debt shall have been paid in full, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holder of Bank Debt at the time outstanding for application to the payment of all Bank Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Bank Debt in full. In the event of the failure of Operator to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Bank Debt is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same.

(c) The Bank Debt shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holder thereof shall have indefeasibly received cash in lawful currency of the United States of America equal to the amount of Bank Debt then outstanding.

(d) Operator will take such action (including, without limitation, the execution and filing of a financing statement with respect to this Agreement and including the execution, verification, delivery and filing of proofs of claim, consents, assignments or other instructions which the holder of the Bank Debt may require in order to prove and realize upon any rights or claims pertaining to the Management Agreement and to effectuate the full benefit of the subordination contained herein) as may be necessary or appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination effected by these provisions.

(e) Operator understands and acknowledges by its execution hereof that the actions of the Lenders in connection with the Bank Debt are being or have been made in reliance upon the absolute subordination of the Management Agreement to Bank Debt as set forth herein.
 
6.  Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and any amendment, revision, restatement or modification thereof:
 
5

(a)  This Agreement shall continue in effect so long as any Bank Debt shall remain unpaid or Lenders have any obligation to lend under the Credit Agreement and no action that the holder of the Bank Debt or the Borrower, with or without the written consent of the holder of the Bank Debt, may take or refrain from taking with respect to any Bank Debt, any instrument representing the same, any collateral therefor, or any agreement or agreements, including guaranties, in connection therewith, shall affect this Agreement or the obligations of Operator hereunder.
 
(b)  All rights and interests of the Lenders hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of Operator and the Borrower under this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
 
(i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Bank Debt, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Credit Agreement, the Bank Notes or any other Loan Document;

(ii) any taking and holding of Collateral or other security or additional guarantees for all or any of the Bank Debt; or any amendment, alteration, exchange, substitution, transfer, enforcement, waiver, subordination, termination or release of any Collateral or such guarantees, or any non-perfection of any Collateral, or any consent to departure from any such guaranty;

(iii) any manner of application of Collateral or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Bank Debt, or the manner of sale of any Collateral or other security;

(iv) any consent by any of the Banks or any other Person to the change, restructure or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Borrower or Operator, or any Subsidiary thereof and any corresponding restructure of the Bank Debt, or any other restructure of the Bank Debt or any portion thereof; or

(v) any modification, compounding, comprise, settlement, release by the Banks or any of them or any other Person (or by operation of law or otherwise), collection or other liquidation of the Bank Debt or of the Collateral or other security in whole or in part, and any refusal of payment to any Bank in whole or in part, from any obligor or guarantor in
6

connection with any of the Bank Debt, whether or not with notice to, or further assent by, or any reservation of rights against Operator.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator hereby consents to and agrees that the rights of each Bank hereunder, and the enforceability hereof, shall not be affected by any release of any Collateral or security from the liens and security interests created by any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement whether for purposes of sales or other dispositions of assets or for any other purpose. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Bank Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
 
(c)  Operator waives the right to require the Banks to proceed against the Borrower or any other person liable on the Bank Debt, to proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower or any other person, or to pursue any other remedy in the Banks' power whatsoever and Operator waives the right to have the property of the Borrower first applied to the discharge of the Bank Debt. The Banks may, at their election, exercise any right or remedy they may have against the Borrower or any security held by the Banks, including, without limitation, the right to foreclosure upon any such security by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, without affecting or impairing in any way the obligations of Operator hereunder, except to the extent the Bank Debt has been paid, and Operator waives any defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation or any other right or remedy of Operator against the Borrower or any such security, whether resulting from such election by the Lenders.
 
7.  Operator hereby irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceedings initiated by Operator or against it by Lenders or Agent Bank with respect to this Agreement shall be brought in the courts of the State of Colorado or in the United States District Courts of Colorado and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, Operator consents to such jurisdiction and hereby irrevocably waives any and all objections which it may have as to venue in any of the above courts.
 
8.  Operator hereby agrees to be responsible for and to pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs and accountants' fees, incurred by the holder of the Bank Debt in connection with the successful enforcement by the holder of the Bank Debt of its rights or the protection of the holder of the Bank Debt of its interests under this Agreement, whether incurred pre-trial, at trial or on appeal.
7

9.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado.
 
10.  Borrower joins in the execution of this Agreement to evidence its agreement to the terms hereof and to be legally bound hereby. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
 
11.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same document with the same effect as if all parties had signed the same signature page. Any signature page of this Agreement may be detached from any counterpart of this Agreement and reattached to any other counterpart of this Agreement identical in form hereto but having attached to it one or more additional signature pages.
 
12.  It is understood and agreed that, by virtue of its execution and delivery of this Agreement, Operator shall not be deemed to be a maker, surety or other obligor of any of Borrower's Obligations (as defined by the Credit Agreement); however, nothing contained in this Paragraph 12 shall relieve Operator from its obligations to comply with the terms and conditions hereof.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Agreement, as of the day and year first above written.

COMPLETION GUARANTY


THIS COMPLETION GUARANTY (this "Completion Guaranty") dated as of November 18, 2005, is executed and delivered by CENTURY CASINOS, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Completion Guarantor"), in favor of WELLS FARGO BANK, National Association, as administrative and collateral agent for those commercial lending institutions party to the hereinafter-described Credit Agreement.

R_E_C_I_T_A_L_S:

WHEREAS:
 
A.  Reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2005 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), by and among CC Tollgate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Borrower"), the Lenders therein named (herein together with their respective successors and assigns collectively the "Lenders"), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the issuer of Letters of Credit (herein, in such capacity, called the "L/C Issuer") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders and L/C Issuer (herein, in such capacity, called the "Agent Bank" and, together with the Lenders and L/C Issuer, collectively referred to as the "Banks").
 
B.  For the purpose of this Completion Guaranty, all capitalized terms not otherwise specifically defined herein shall have the same meaning given them in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement as though fully restated verbatim.
 
C.  Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, a portion of the proceeds of the Credit Facility are to be used for the purpose of financing a portion of the costs of constructing the Construction Projects in accordance with the Construction Budgets and the Plans and Specifications.
 
D.  Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to cause the Completion Date of the Construction Projects to occur no later than the Construction Completion Deadline.
 
E.  As a condition precedent to the Lenders establishing the Bank Facilities, Lenders have required that the Agent Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have received from the Completion Guarantor a completion guarantee in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent Bank.
 

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE BANK FACILITIES ESTABLISHED IN FAVOR OF BORROWER PURSUANT TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE LENDERS WOULD NOT MAKE OR COMMIT TO MAKE OR ESTABLISH THE BANK FACILITIES FOR THE BENEFIT OF BORROWER BUT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPLETION GUARANTOR HEREUNDER, UPON WHICH THE COMPLETION GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE AGENT BANK AND THE LENDERS ARE RELYING IN ENTERING INTO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND ESTABLISHING THE BANK FACILITIES, THE COMPLETION GUARANTOR HEREBY REPRESENTS, WARRANTS AND COVENANT AS FOLLOWS:
 
1.  Guarantied Obligations. The Completion Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Lenders and the Agent Bank (collectively the "Guarantied Obligations"):
 
a.  to complete or cause completion of construction of each of the Construction Projects pursuant to and substantially in accordance and compliance with the applicable Plans and Specifications, including all off-site work (if any), in a timely manner and otherwise in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement free of any and all Liens other than the Permitted Encumbrances, in accordance with all applicable zoning, building, environmental, land use and other laws, statutes, ordinances, regulations and rules of all Governmental Authorities, including, without limitation, the following:
 
(i)  to perform, complete and pay for (or cause to be performed, completed and paid for), in full when due, the construction of each such Construction Project and all other costs and expenses associated therewith;
 
(ii)  If the Agent Bank or the Lenders exercise their rights under the Credit Agreement and the Deed of Trust to take possession of the Construction Projects and complete the construction thereof, promptly to reimburse the Agent Bank and the Lenders for all costs and expenses incurred by them in so taking possession of the Construction Projects and completing construction or causing completion of construction of the Construction Projects to occur;
 
(iii)  If any mechanics' or materialmen's liens should be filed, or should attach, with respect to the Construction Projects by reason of the construction thereof, to cause the removal of such liens in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement;
 
2

(iv)  The payment of all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred in enforcing this Completion Guaranty,
 
b.  that the Completion Date of the Construction Projects shall occur on or before the Construction Completion Deadline; and
 
c.  to not permit any change in any applicable Plans and Specifications to be made or any change order to become effective without the prior approval of the Agent Bank, except as expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement.
 
2.  Indemnification of Banks. Completion Guarantor shall and does hereby indemnify, defend and hold free and harmless each of the Agent Bank and the Lenders (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, which any Indemnified Party may sustain by reason of the Completion Guarantor's failure to cause prompt and complete performance of the Guarantied Obligations, and shall pay (or reimburse each Indemnified Party for) any and all costs and expenses incurred in causing the Completion Date so to occur, or, if the Completion Date cannot then occur, to cause it to occur as soon as possible thereafter. The Agent Bank or any other Indemnified Party will notify the Completion Guarantor of any legal proceeding brought against an Indemnified Party for which any Indemnified Party will seek indemnification and the Completion Guarantor shall have the right to seek to intervene in any such proceedings. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, each of the Agent Bank and the Lenders may (but without any obligation to do so, and either before, following or during the institution of any foreclosure or other proceedings with respect to the Real Property) exercise any and all remedies described in the Credit Agreement, provided at law or otherwise available to them, without in any way affecting any of their rights hereunder.
 
3.  Waivers. Completion Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Lenders and Agent Bank:
 
a.  any right to require Agent Bank or Lenders, as a condition of payment or performance by Completion Guarantor, to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Bank Facilities or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Bank Facilities or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Agent Bank or any Lenders in favor of the Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of Agent Bank or any Lender whatsoever;
 
3

b.  any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Borrower, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Bank Facilities, the General Contractor Agreements or any agreement or instrument relating to the Bank Facilities or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Borrower from any cause other than prompt and complete performance of the Guarantied Obligations;
 
c.  any defense based upon any statute or rule of law that provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;
 
d.  any defense based upon Agent Bank's or any Lender's errors or omissions in the administration of the Bank Facilities, except for behavior which amounts to gross negligence or willful misconduct;
 
e.  (i)any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Completion Guaranty and any legal or equitable discharge of Completion Guarantor's obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Completion Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that Agent Bank or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto;
 
f.  notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this Completion Guaranty, notices of default under the Credit Agreement or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Bank Facilities or any agreement related thereto, notice of any Construction Disbursement or any Construction Disbursement Request received by Agent Bank, any other extensions of credit to Borrower and any right to consent to any thereof; and
 
g.  any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law that limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Completion Guaranty, including without limitation the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 40.430-40.459, 40.475 and 40.485 and any successor provisions.
 
4.  Absolute Liability. Completion Guarantor's liability hereunder shall be in no way affected, diminished or released by (a) acceptance by the Agent Bank or the Lenders of security or additional security for the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents or any increase, substitution or change therein, (b) the release by the Agent Bank or the Lenders of any such security or any withdrawal thereof or decrease therein, or (c) the exercise by the
 
                                                                                                                       4

Agent Bank or the Lenders of any or all of the remedies described in the Credit Agreement or otherwise available to them.
 
5.  No Election. The Agent Bank and the Lenders shall have the right, at their option, either before, during or after commencing foreclosure proceedings (whether judicial or through a power of sale contained in the Deed of Trust) and before, during and after pursuing any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other guarantor, to perform all of the obligations of the Borrower and/or any other guarantor by or through any agent, contractor or subcontractor of its or their selection, all as they in their sole determination deem proper, and the Completion Guarantor shall indemnify, defend and hold the Agent Bank and the Lenders free and harmless against any and all loss, damage, cost, expense, injury or liability that any of them may suffer or incur in connection with the exercise of their rights under this Completion Guaranty and the completion of construction of the Construction Projects. Furthermore, neither the Agent Bank nor any of the Lenders shall have any obligation to protect or insure any Collateral for the Bank Facilities, nor shall any of them have any obligation to perfect its or their security interest in any Collateral for the Bank Facilities.
 
6.  Direct Proceeding. Completion Guarantor hereby waives any right or claim of right to cause the Agent Bank or the Lenders to proceed against any of the security or Collateral held by any of them before proceeding against the Completion Guarantor and the Completion Guarantor hereby waives any and all legal requirements that the Banks shall institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity against the Completion Guarantor, or anyone else, with respect to the Credit Agreement or any of the other documents identified therein or delivered in connection therewith or the transactions described therein, or with respect to any other security held by the Agent Bank or the Lenders, as a condition precedent to bringing any action against the Completion Guarantor upon this Completion Guaranty.
 
7.  Remedies. Completion Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of the failure to complete construction of the Construction Projects as provided in the Credit Agreement and Paragraph 1 hereof, the Agent Bank shall be immediately entitled to enforce the obligations of the Completion Guarantor hereunder after written notice to Completion Guarantor of such failure. Upon the failure of the Completion Guarantor, to comply with the covenants and agreements under this Completion Guaranty, including, but not limited to its covenants to perform and complete the Guarantied Obligations, the Agent Bank may, without waiving or releasing the Completion Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the Agent Bank or the Lenders hereunder, whether or not expressly set forth herein, perform such covenants or agreements in respect of which there shall be a default hereunder and in that regard the Agent Bank may pay such money as it may deem appropriate. All such monies paid by the Agent Bank as aforesaid, together with interest thereon at the Default Rates provided for under the Credit Agreement, shall be due and payable by the
 
                                                                                                                    5

Completion Guarantor to the appropriate party on demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the course of any construction of the Construction Projects undertaken by the Agent Bank or any other party on behalf of Agent Bank, the Completion Guarantor shall pay on demand all amounts due to contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers for the Construction Projects and for permits and licenses necessary in connection with the Construction Projects. The Completion Guarantor's obligations, in connection with such work shall not be affected by any errors or omissions of the Borrower's general contractor, engineer or architect, the Lenders' Consultant or any subcontractor or agent or employee of any of the foregoing in the design, supervision and performance of any of the work comprising the construction of the Construction Projects; it being understood and agreed that such risk is assumed by the Completion Guarantor.
 
8.  Amendments. No delay on the part of the Agent Bank or the Lenders in exercising any of their rights, powers, or privileges or partial or single exercise thereof under the Credit Agreement or any of the other documents identified therein or delivered in connection therewith or the transactions described therein shall operate as a waiver of any privileges, powers or rights hereunder, and no modifications or amendments of this Completion Guaranty shall be deemed to be made by the Agent Bank or the Lenders unless the same shall be in writing, duly signed by the Agent Bank, and each such waiver, if any, shall apply only with respect to the specified instance involved, and shall in no way impair the rights of the Agent Bank or the Lenders or the obligations of the Completion Guarantor to such parties in any other respect at any other time.
 
9.  Subordination. Until the Bank Facilities shall have been paid in full and completely performed by Borrower or otherwise and the Banks obligation to advance funds thereunder indefeasibly terminated and Bank Facilities Termination shall have occurred, Completion Guarantor shall withhold exercise of:
 
a.  any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that Completion Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any of its assets in connection with this Completion Guaranty or the performance by Completion Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, including without limitation under Nevada Revised Statutes Section 40.475 or 40.485, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Completion Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Agent Bank or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, and (iii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any Collateral or security now or hereafter held by Agent Bank or any Lender, and
 
6

b.  any right of contribution Completion Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of the Bank Facilities.
 
Completion Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification Completion Guarantor may have against Borrower or against any Collateral or security, and any rights of contribution Completion Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Agent Bank or Lenders may have against Borrower, to all right, title and interest Agent Bank or Lenders may have in any such Collateral or security, and to any right Agent Bank or Lenders may have against such other guarantor.
 
10.  Payments; Application. All payments to be made hereunder by Completion Guarantor shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall be made without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset. All payments made by Completion Guarantor hereunder shall be applied as follows: first, to all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by Agent Bank and the Lenders in enforcing this Completion Guaranty or in collecting the Guarantied Obligations; second, to all accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, and fees owing to Agent Bank and the Lenders constituting Guarantied Obligations; and third, to the balance of the Guarantied Obligations.
 
11.  Costs and Expenses. Completion Guarantor agrees to pay Banks' reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, legal fees and disbursements, incurred in any effort (which shall include those incurred in investigations of and advising on matters relating to the Banks' rights and remedies) to collect or enforce any of sums owing under this Completion Guaranty whether or not any lawsuit is filed. Until paid to the Agent Bank and the Lenders such sums will bear interest at the Default Rate set forth in the Credit Agreement.
 
12.  Costs to Prevailing Party. If any action or proceeding is brought by any party against any other party under this Completion Guaranty, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover such costs and attorney's fees as the court in such action or proceeding may adjudge reasonable.
 
13.  Completion Notice. Upon Completion Guarantor's written request and Agent Bank's confirmation that the Completion Date has occurred and all costs of constructing the Construction Projects have been fully paid, Agent Bank shall provide Completion Guarantor, at Completion Guarantor's expense, with written confirmation of the completion of the Construction Projects and upon such written confirmation
 
 
                                                                                                                           7

 Completion Guarantor shall be deemed released from its obligations under this Completion Guaranty.

PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT OF
SAVINGS ACCOUNT AGREEMENT


THIS PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT OF SAVINGS ACCOUNT AGREEMENT ("Pledge Agreement") is made and entered into as of this 18th day of November, 2005, by and among CC TOLLGATE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Debtor and Assignor, hereinafter referred to as "Borrower", party of the first part, and WELLS FARGO BANK, National Association, hereinafter referred to as "L/C Issuer" party of the second part.

R_E_C_I_T_A_L_S:

WHEREAS:
 
A.  In this Pledge Agreement all capitalized words and terms not otherwise specifically herein defined shall have the respective meanings and be construed herein as provided in or incorporated into Section 1.01 entitled "Definitions" of the Credit Agreement (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), dated concurrently herewith by and among Borrower, L/C Issuer and the Banks therein described, and any reference to a provision of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to incorporate that provision as a part hereof in the same manner and with the same effect as if the same were fully set forth herein.
 
B.  Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, L/C Issuer has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions specified therein, to issue Letters of Credit on behalf of Borrower up to the maximum aggregate Stated Amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) at any time outstanding. As security for the prompt payment of each and every L/C Reimbursement Obligation arising after the occurrence of an Event of Default, L/C Issuer may establish a restricted depository savings account for the account of Borrower (the "Cash Collateral Account"). It is a condition of the Credit Agreement and the issuance of Letters of Credit that all Borrowings, Cash, securities and other property of Borrower which may hereafter be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account be presently and irrevocably pledged and assigned to L/C Issuer to be held by L/C Issuer in the manner and for the purposes set forth in the Credit Agreement and L/C Agreements.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Letters of Credit issued and to be issued by L/C Issuer for the benefit of Borrower, the receipt and sufficiency of which consideration is hereby acknowledged, the Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to L/C Issuer all of its right, title and interest in and to the Cash Collateral Account and
 
 

any Borrowings, Cash, securities and other property of Borrower hereafter held or deposited therein, as follows:
 
1.  Borrower shall and does hereby agree that L/C Issuer shall have the right, on and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to establish and maintain the Cash Collateral Account for the purpose set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement. The Borrower by these presents does hereby presently and irrevocably grant, bargain, sell, assign, transfer and set over unto L/C Issuer, its successors and assigns, all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the Cash Collateral Account and any Borrowings, Cash, securities and other property of Borrower hereafter held or deposited therein on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
 
2.  In addition to all rights of setoff for repayment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation against any Borrowings held in the Cash Collateral Account, monies, securities or other property given to L/C Issuer by law, L/C Issuer shall have a right of setoff for the repayment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation against any Borrowings, monies, securities and other property of Borrower now or hereafter held or deposited in the Cash Collateral Account or on deposit with L/C Issuer whether held in a general or special account or deposit, or for safekeeping or otherwise; and every such right of setoff for the repayment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation may be exercised without demand upon or notice to Borrower. No right of setoff shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or conduct on the part of L/C Issuer or by any neglect to exercise such right of setoff, or by any delay in doing so; and every right of setoff shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived or released by an instrument in writing executed by L/C Issuer.
 
3.  No delay or failure by L/C Issuer, Agent Bank or any of the Banks to exercise any right or remedy against the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be construed as a waiver of such right or remedy. All remedies of L/C Issuer, Agent Bank and Banks against the Borrower under the Loan Documents are cumulative.
 
4.  This Pledge Agreement may not be amended, changed or terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by the party or parties against whom enforcement of the change is sought. This Pledge Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada and if any action is taken to enforce the terms of this Pledge Agreement such action shall be commenced and maintained within the State of Nevada.
 
5.  If and to the extent that the amounts held from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account (including any interest) exceed the Stated Amount of all undrawn Letters of Credit and all unpaid L/C Reimbursement Obligations, L/C Issuer shall, on or before ten (10) days following receipt of written request by Borrower, apply such excess in the order of priority set forth in Section 7.03 of the Credit Agreement.

6.  This Pledge Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts with the same effect as if the signatures hereto and hereby were upon the same instrument. All such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed the foregoing instrument on the day and year first above written.
