(or any successor or assign thereof) now or hereafter uses, or has in the past used with respect to
the Site, the Project or the Improvements without limitation, with the same force and effect as if

     1.3 Leasehold Estates. Trustor represents, covenants and warrants: (a) that the
Subject Leases are in full force and effect and unmodified; (b) Trustor will defend the leasehold

or any part thereof, subject to the payment of the rents in the Subject Leases reserved and subject
to the performance and observance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and warranties
thereof; (c) that there is no uncured default under any Subject Lease or in the performance of any
of the terms, covenants, conditions or warranties thereof on the part of the lessor or the lessee
to be observed and performed and that no state of facts exist under a Subject Lease which, with the
lapse of time or giving of notice or both would constitute a default thereunder.



     1.4 Payment of Subject Leases Expenses. The Trustor shall pay or cause to be paid on
or prior to the date due all rents, additional rents and other Impositions payable by the lessor or
the lessee under the Subject Leases for which provision has not been made hereinbefore, when and as

payable under the Cooperation Agreement allocable to the Site, the Project and the Improvements.
Trustor will in every case deliver, or cause to be delivered, proper receipts for any such item so
paid and will within ten (10) days after a request therefor by the Beneficiary deliver to the
Beneficiary a copy of the receipts for any such payments.



     1.5 Trustor’s Covenants with Respect to Subject Leases.



     (a) The Trustor shall at all times promptly and faithfully keep and perform, or cause to be
kept and performed, all the covenants and conditions contained in the Subject Leases to be kept and
performed by the Trustor, whether as the lessor or the lessee, under the Subject Leases and in all
respects conform to and comply with the terms and conditions of the Subject Leases. The Trustor
further covenants that it shall not do or permit anything to occur or omit to occur which will
impair or tend to impair the security of this Deed of Trust or will be grounds for declaring a
forfeiture of any Subject Lease, and upon any such failure as aforesaid, Trustor shall be subject
to all of the rights and remedies granted Beneficiary in this Deed of Trust.



     (b) Trustor shall give Beneficiary immediate notice of any default under any material Subject
Lease or of the receipt by it of any notice of default from the lessor thereunder, and shall
promptly furnish to Beneficiary any and all information which it may request concerning the
performance by Trustor of the covenants of the Subject Leases, and permit Beneficiary or its
representative at all reasonable times to make investigation or examination concerning the
performance by Trustor of the covenants of the Subject Leases, and permit the Bank Agent or its
representatives at all reasonable times to make investigation or examination concerning such
performance. Trustor shall deliver to Beneficiary a copy of an executed original of each Subject
Lease and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Beneficiary within ten (10) days
of request by Beneficiary an estoppel certificate from the lessor thereunder in such form and
content as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, as well as any and all documentary
evidence received by it showing compliance by Trustor with the provisions of the Subject Leases.



     (c) In the event of any failure by Trustor to perform or cause the performance of any
covenant on the part of lessor or lessee to be observed and performed under the Subject Leases,
Beneficiary may, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to Trustor (unless an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, in which case no such notice shall be required), perform



15









 







on behalf of Trustor, and the performance by Beneficiary on behalf of Trustor of the
applicable Subject Lease covenant shall not remove or waive, as between Trustor and Beneficiary,
any Event of Default under the terms hereof and any amount so advanced by Beneficiary or any costs
incurred in connection therewith, with interest thereon at the Default Rate shall constitute
additional Obligations secured hereby and be immediately due and payable.



     (d) To the extent permitted by law, the price payable by Trustor, or by any other party so
entitled, in the exercise of the right of redemption, if any, shall include all rents paid and
other sums advanced by Beneficiary, on behalf of Trustor, as lessee under the Subject Leases.



     (e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall
have the right upon notice to Trustor to participate in the adjustment and settlement of any
insurance proceeds and in the determination of any condemnation award under the Subject Leases to
the extent and in the manner provided in the Subject Leases.



     (f) The Lien of this Deed of Trust shall attach to all of Trustor’s rights and remedies at
any time arising under or pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without
limitation, all of Trustor’s rights to remain in possession of the Site, the Project, the
Improvements and the Leased Premises. Trustor shall not elect to treat the Subject Leases as
terminated under Section 365(h)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, and any such election shall be void.




     (i) If pursuant to Section 365(h)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, Trustor shall seek to
offset against the rent reserved in the Subject Leases the amount of any damages caused by
the nonperformance by the lessor or any other Person of any of their respective obligations
thereunder after the rejection by the lessor or such other Person of the Subject Leases
under the Bankruptcy Code, then Trustor shall, prior to effecting such offset, notify
Beneficiary of its intent to do so, setting forth the amount proposed to be so offset and
the basis therefor. Beneficiary shall have the right to object to all or any part of such
offset that, in the reasonable judgment of Beneficiary, would constitute a breach of the
Subject Leases, and in the event of such objection, Trustor shall not effect any offset of
the amounts found objectionable by Beneficiary. Neither Beneficiary’s failure to object as
aforesaid nor any objection relating to such offset shall constitute an approval of any such
offset by Beneficiary.




     (ii) If any action, proceeding, motion or notice shall be commenced or filed in
respect of the lessor under the Subject Leases or any other party or in respect of the
Subject Leases in connection with any case under the Bankruptcy Code, then Beneficiary shall
have the option to intervene in any such litigation with counsel of Beneficiary’s choice.
Beneficiary may proceed in its own name in connection with any such litigation, and Trustor
agrees to execute any and all powers, authorizations, consents or other documents required
by Beneficiary in connection therewith.




     (iii) Trustor shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify Beneficiary of
any filing by or against the lessor or other party with an interest in the Leased Premises
of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code. Trustor shall promptly deliver to Beneficiary,
following receipt, copies of any and all notices, summonses, pleadings, applications and



16









 







other documents received by Trustor in connection with any such petition and any
proceedings relating thereto.




     (iv) If there shall be filed by or against Trustor a petition under the Bankruptcy
Code, and Trustor, as lessee under the Subject Leases, shall determine to reject the Subject
Leases pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, then Trustor shall give
Beneficiary a notice of the date on which Trustor shall apply to the bankruptcy court for
authority to reject the Subject Leases (such notice to be no later than twenty (20) days
prior to such date). Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve
upon Trustor at any time prior to the date on which Trustor shall so apply to the bankruptcy
court a notice stating that Beneficiary demands that Trustor assume and assign the Subject
Leases to Beneficiary pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. If Beneficiary shall
serve upon Trustor the notice described in the preceding sentence, to the extent permitted
by law Trustor shall not seek to reject the Subject Leases and shall comply with the demand
provided for in the preceding sentence. In addition, effective upon the entry of an order
for relief with respect to Trustor under the Bankruptcy Code, Trustor hereby assigns and
transfers to Beneficiary a non-exclusive right to apply to the bankruptcy court under
Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code for an order extending the period during which the
Subject Leases may be rejected or assumed; and shall (a) promptly notify Beneficiary of any
default by Trustor in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions on the part of Trustor to be performed or observed under the Subject Leases and
of the giving of any written notice by the lessor thereunder to Trustor of any such default,
and (b) promptly cause a copy of each written notice given to Trustor by the lessor under
the Subject Leases to be delivered to Beneficiary. Beneficiary may rely on any notice
received by it from any such lessor of any default by Trustor under the Subject Leases and
may take such action as may be permitted by law to cure such default even though the
existence of such default or the nature thereof shall be questioned or denied by Trustor or
by any Person on its behalf.



     1.6 Compliance with Legal Requirements. Trustor shall promptly, fully, and
faithfully comply in all material respects with all Legal Requirements and shall cause all portions
of the Trust Estate and its use and occupancy to fully comply in all material respects with Legal
Requirements at all times, whether or not such compliance requires work or remedial measures that
are ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, structural or nonstructural, or that
interfere with the use or enjoyment of the Trust Estate, in each case to the extent that
noncompliance could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect.



     1.7 Impositions. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 5.3 of the Credit
Agreement, (a) Trustor shall pay all Impositions as they become due and payable and shall deliver
to Beneficiary promptly upon Beneficiary’s request, evidence satisfactory to Beneficiary that the
Impositions have been paid or are not delinquent; and (b) in the event of the passage of any law
deducting from the value of real property for the purposes of taxation any Lien thereon, or
changing in any way the taxation of deeds of trust or obligations secured thereby for state or
local purposes, or the manner of collecting such Impositions or taxes and imposing an Imposition or
tax, either directly or indirectly, on this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents or LVSC Notes
Documents, Trustor shall pay all such Impositions and taxes and all payments required



17









 







with respect to Impositions and taxes pursuant to the terms of the Cooperation Agreement
(including, without limitation, Article VI thereof).



     1.8 Insurance.



     (a) Insurance Requirements and Proceeds.




     (i) Hazard Insurance. Trustor shall at its sole expense obtain for, deliver
to, assign and maintain for the benefit of Beneficiary, during the term of this Deed of
Trust, insurance policies insuring the Trust Estate and liability insurance policies, all in
accordance with the requirements of Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement, if
applicable. Trustor shall promptly pay when due any premiums on such insurance policies and
on any renewals thereof and all payments required with respect to the procurement of
insurance pursuant to the terms of the Cooperation Agreement (including, without limitation,
Article VI thereof). In the event of the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or any
other transfer of title to the Trust Estate in extinguishment of the Obligations and other
sums secured hereby, all right, title and interest of Beneficiary in and to all insurance
policies and renewals thereof then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee.




     (ii) Handling of Proceeds. All Proceeds from any insurance policies shall be
disbursed in accordance with Articles X and XI of the Cooperation Agreement
(or any relevant provision of any permitted future amendment thereof) or otherwise in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.14(b) and 5.5 of the Credit Agreement,
if applicable.



     (b) Compliance with Insurance Policies. Trustor shall not violate or permit to be
violated any of the conditions or provisions of any policy of insurance required by the Credit
Agreement, the Cooperation Agreement or this Deed of Trust and Trustor shall so perform and satisfy
the requirements of the companies writing such policies that, at all times, companies of good
standing shall be willing to write and/or continue such insurance. Trustor further covenants to
promptly send to Beneficiary all notices relating to any violation of such policies or otherwise
affecting Trustor’s insurance coverage or ability to obtain and maintain such insurance coverage.



     1.9 Condemnation. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, Beneficiary is hereby authorized, at its option, to commence, appear in and prosecute in
its own or Trustor’s name any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation and, subject to
Article XII of the Cooperation Agreement, to settle or compromise any claim in connection
therewith, and Trustor hereby appoints Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact to take any action in
Trustor’s name pursuant to Beneficiary’s rights hereunder. Immediately upon obtaining knowledge of
the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation of the Trust Estate, or any portion
thereof, Trustor shall notify the Trustee and Beneficiary of the pendency of such proceedings.
Trustor from time to time shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary all instruments requested by it
to permit such participation; provided, however, that such instruments shall be
deemed as supplemental to the foregoing grant of permission to Trustee and Beneficiary, and unless
otherwise required, the foregoing permission shall, without more, be deemed sufficient to permit
Trustee and/or Beneficiary to participate in such proceedings on behalf of Trustor. All



18









 







such compensation awards, damages, claims, rights of action and Proceeds, and any other
payments or relief, and the right thereto, whether paid to Beneficiary or Trustor, are included in
the Trust Estate. All such Proceeds paid directly to the Trustor shall be applied in accordance
with Article XII of the Cooperation Agreement and Section 2.14(b) of the Credit
Agreement. Trustor hereby waives any rights it may have under NRS 37.115, as amended or recodified
from time to time.



     1.10 Space Leases.



     (a) Trustor represents and warrants that:




     (i) Trustor has delivered to Beneficiary true, correct and complete copies of all
Space Leases, including all amendments and modifications, written or oral existing as of the
date hereof;




     (ii) Trustor has not executed or entered into any modifications or amendments of the
Space Leases, either orally or in writing, other than written amendments that have been
delivered or disclosed to Beneficiary in writing;




     (iii) except as set forth in Schedule 1.10, to Trustor’s knowledge, no default now
exists under any Space Lease on the part of Trustor or the tenant thereunder;




     (iv) except as set forth in Schedule 1.10, to Trustor’s knowledge, no event has
occurred that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute
such a default or would entitle Trustor or any other party under such Space Lease to cancel
the same or otherwise avoid its obligations;




     (v) Trustor has not accepted prepayments of installments of Rent under any Space
Leases, except for installment payments not in excess of one month’s Rent and security
deposits;




     (vi) except for Permitted Liens, Trustor has not executed any assignment or pledge of
any of Space Leases, the Rents, or of Trustor’s right, title and interest in the same; and




     (vii) this Deed of Trust does not constitute a violation or default under any Space
Lease, and is and shall at all times constitute a valid Lien on Trustor’s interests in the
Space Leases.



     (b) After an Event of Default, Trustor shall deliver to Beneficiary the executed originals of
all Space Leases.



     1.11 Authorization by Trustor.



     Trustor agrees that in the event the ownership of the Trust Estate or any part thereof becomes
vested in a person other than Trustor, Beneficiary may, without notice to Trustor, deal in any way
with such successor or successors in interest with reference to this Deed of Trust and the
Obligations hereby secured without in any way vitiating or discharging Trustor’s or any



19









 







guarantor’s, surety’s or endorser’s liability hereunder or upon the obligations hereby
secured. No sale of the Trust Estate and no forbearance to any person with respect to this Deed of
Trust and no extension to any person of the time for payment of the Obligations, and other sums
hereby secured given by Beneficiary shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect
the original liability of Trustor, or such guarantor, surety or endorser either in whole or in
part.



     1.12 Security Agreement and Financing Statements. Trustor (as debtor) hereby grants
to Beneficiary (as creditor and secured party) a present and future security interest in all
Tangible Collateral, Intangible Collateral, FF&E (subject to the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2
of the Credit Agreement which permit the granting of certain security interests in Specified FF&E
to the providers of Indebtedness which may be incurred under said Section), and Improvements, in
each case to the extent that the same constitutes a part of the Trust Estate, all other personal
property now or hereafter owned or leased by Trustor or in which Trustor has or will have any
interest, to the extent that such property constitutes a part of the Trust Estate (whether or not
such items are stored on the Site, the Project, the Improvements or elsewhere), Proceeds of the
foregoing comprising a portion of the Trust Estate and all proceeds of insurance policies and
consideration awards arising therefrom and all proceeds, products, substitutions, and accessions
therefor and thereto, subject to Beneficiary’s rights to treat such property as real property as
herein provided (collectively, the “Personal Property”). Trustor shall execute any and all
documents and writings, including without limitation financing statements pursuant to the UCC, as
may be necessary or prudent to preserve and maintain the priority of the security interest granted
hereby on property which may be deemed subject to the foregoing security agreement or as
Beneficiary may reasonably request, and shall pay to Beneficiary on demand any reasonable expenses
incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the preparation, execution and filing of any such
documents. Trustor hereby authorizes and empowers Beneficiary to execute and file, on Trustor’s
behalf, all financing statements and refilings and continuations thereof as advisable to create,
preserve and protect said security interest. This Deed of Trust constitutes both a real property
deed of trust and a “security agreement,” within the meaning of the UCC, and the Trust Estate
includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or
intangible in nature, of Trustor in the Trust Estate. Trustor by executing and delivering this
Deed of Trust has granted to Beneficiary, as security of the Obligations, a security interest in
the Trust Estate.



     (a) Fixture Filing. Without in any way limiting the generality of the immediately
preceding paragraph or of the definition of the Trust Estate, this Deed of Trust constitutes a
fixture filing under Section 9-502 of the UCC (NRS 104.9502(3)). For such purposes, (i) the
“debtor” is each Trustor and their respective addresses are the addresses given for each such
Person in the initial paragraph of this Deed of Trust; (ii) the “secured party” is Beneficiary, and
its address for the purpose of obtaining information is the address given for it in the initial
paragraph of this Deed of Trust; (iii) the real estate to which the fixtures are or are to become
attached is Trustor’s interest in the Site, the Project and the Improvements; and (iv) the record
owner of such real estate or interests therein is Venetian (with respect to the Land and the Phase
I-A Air Space and as the lessor under the Casino Lease and as the lessee under the Subject Leases
other than the Casino Lease) and LVS (with respect to the leasehold estate created by the Casino
Lease).



20









 





     (b) Remedies. This Deed of Trust shall be deemed a security agreement as defined in
the UCC and the remedies for any violation of the covenants, terms and conditions of the agreements
herein contained shall include any or all of (i) those prescribed herein, and (ii) those available
under applicable Legal Requirements, and (iii) those available under the UCC, all at Beneficiary’s
sole election. In addition, a photographic or other reproduction of this Deed of Trust shall be
sufficient as a financing statement for filing wherever filing may be necessary to perfect or
continue the security interest granted herein.



     (c) Derogation of Real Property. It is the intention of the parties that the filing
of a financing statement in the records normally having to do with personal property shall never be
construed as in anyway derogating from or impairing the express declaration and intention of the
parties hereto as hereinabove stated that everything used in connection with the production of
Income from the Trust Estate and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described or reflected
in this Deed of Trust is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings both legal
or equitable, shall be regarded as part of the real property encumbered by this Deed of Trust
irrespective of whether (i) any such item is physically attached to the Improvements, (ii) serial
numbers are used for the better identification of certain equipment items capable of being thus
identified in a recital contained herein or in any list filed with Beneficiary, or (iii) any such
item is referred to or reflected in any such financing statement so filed at any time. It is the
intention of the parties that the mention in any such financing statement of (1) rights in or to
the proceeds of any fire and/or hazard insurance policy, or (2) any award in eminent domain
proceedings for a taking or for loss of value, or (3) Trustor’s interest as lessors in any present
or future Space Lease or rights to Rents, shall never be construed as in any way altering any of
the rights of Beneficiary as determined by this Deed of Trust or impugning the priority of
Beneficiary’s real property Lien granted hereby or by any other recorded document, but such mention
in the financing statement is declared to be for the protection of Beneficiary in the event any
court or judge shall at any time hold with respect to the matters set forth in the foregoing
clauses (1), (2) and (3) that notice of Beneficiary’s priority of interest to be effective against
a particular class of Persons, including but not limited to, the federal government and any
subdivisions or entity of the federal government, must be filed in the UCC records.



     (d) Priority; Permitted Financing of Tangible Collateral. All Personal Property of
any nature whatsoever which is subject to the provisions of this security agreement shall be
purchased or obtained by Trustor in its name and free and clear of any Lien or encumbrance, except
for Permitted Liens, for use only in connection with the business and operation of the Project, and
shall be and at all times remain free and clear of any lease or similar arrangement, chattel
financing, installment sale agreement, security agreement and any encumbrance of like kind, so that
Beneficiary’s security interest shall attach to and vest in Trustor for the benefit of Beneficiary,
with the priority herein specified, immediately upon the installation or use of the Personal
Property at the Site, the Project or the Improvements and Trustor warrants and represents that
Beneficiary’s security interest in the Personal Property is a validly attached and binding security
interest, properly perfected and prior to all other security interests therein subject to Permitted
Liens.



     (e) Preservation of Contractual Rights of Collateral. Trustor shall, to the extent
required to do so under the Credit Agreement, prior to delinquency, default, or forfeiture, perform
all obligations and satisfy all material conditions required on its part to be satisfied to
preserve its



21









 







rights and privileges under any contract, lease, license, permit, or other authorization (i)
under which it holds any Tangible Collateral or (ii) which constitutes part of the Intangible
Collateral, except where Trustor is contesting such obligations in accordance with the Credit
Agreement.



     (f) Removal of Collateral. Except as permitted herein or under the Credit Agreement,
none of the Tangible Collateral shall be removed from the Trust Estate without Beneficiary’s prior
written consent.



     (g) Change of Name. Trustor shall not change its corporate or business name, or do
business within the State under any name other than such name, or any trade name(s) other than
those as to which Trustor gives prior written notice to Beneficiary of its intent to use such trade
names, or any other business names (if any) specified in the financing statements delivered to
Beneficiary for filing in connection with the execution hereof, without providing Beneficiary with
the additional financing statement(s) and any other similar documents deemed reasonably necessary
by Beneficiary to assure that its security interest remains perfected and of undiminished priority
in all such Personal Property notwithstanding such name change.



     (h) Release of Liens. To the extent any property (including Specified FF&E) is
financed by any lender pursuant to an FF&E Facility or pursuant to Section 6.1(f) or
6.1(j) of the Credit Agreement (or there is any refinancing of such financing) and such
financing or refinancing is secured by Liens permitted under Section 6.2(n) of the Credit
Agreement, the Trustee shall release the Liens in favor of the Beneficiary on such property and in
connection therewith at the Trustor’s expense, execute and deliver to the Trustor such documents
(including, without limitation UCC-3 termination statements) as the Trustor may reasonably request
to evidence such termination.



     1.13 Assignment of Rents and Leases. The assignment of Rents and Leases set out
above in Granting Clause (G) shall constitute an absolute and present assignment to Beneficiary,
subject to the revocable license granted therein to Trustor to collect the Rents, and shall be
fully operative without any further action on the part of any party, and specifically upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default such license shall be automatically revoked and Beneficiary shall
be entitled upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder to all Rents and to enter into the
Site, the Project and the Improvements to collect all such Rents until such time as such Event of
Default is cured and such cure is accepted by the Beneficiary; provided, however,
that Beneficiary shall not be obligated to take possession of the Trust Estate, or any portion
thereof. The absolute assignment contained in Granting Clause (G) shall not be deemed to impose
upon Beneficiary any of the obligations or duties of Trustor provided in any such Space Lease or
the Casino Lease (including, without limitation, any liability under the covenant of quiet
enjoyment contained in any Space Lease or the Casino Lease in the event that any lessee shall have
been joined as a party defendant in any action to foreclose this Deed of Trust and shall have been
barred and foreclosed thereby of all right, title and interest and equity of redemption in the
Trust Estate or any part thereof).



     1.14 Rejection of Subject Leases. To the extent applicable, if the lessor under the
Subject Leases rejects or disaffirms the Subject Leases or purports or seeks to disaffirm the
Subject Leases pursuant to any Bankruptcy Law, then:



22









 





     (a) To the extent permitted by law, Trustor shall remain in possession of the Leased Premises
demised under the Subject Leases and shall perform all acts reasonably necessary for Trustor to
remain in such possession for the unexpired term of such Subject Leases (including all renewals),
whether the then existing terms and provisions of such Subject Leases require such acts or
otherwise; and



     (b) All the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust and the Lien created by this Deed of
Trust shall remain in full force and effect and shall extend automatically to all of Trustor’s
rights and remedies arising at any time under, or pursuant to, Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy
Code, including all of Trustor’s rights to remain in possession of the Leased Premises.



     1.15 Beneficiary’s Cure of Trustor’s Default. If Trustor defaults hereunder in the
payment of any tax, assessment, Lien, encumbrance or other Imposition, in its obligation to furnish
insurance hereunder, or in the performance or observance of any other covenant, condition or term
of this Deed of Trust or the Cooperation Agreement, Beneficiary may, but is not obligated to, to
preserve its interest in the Trust Estate, perform or observe the same, but only upon not less than
five Business Days’ notice to Trustor and all payments made (whether such payments are regular or
accelerated payments) and reasonable costs and expenses incurred or paid by Beneficiary in
connection therewith shall become due and payable immediately. The amounts so incurred or paid by
Beneficiary, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until paid
by Trustor, shall be added to the Obligations and secured by the Lien of this Deed of Trust.
Beneficiary is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Site, the
Project or the Improvements or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such
defaulted covenant, condition or term, without thereby becoming liable to Trustor or any Person in
possession holding under Trustor. No exercise of any rights under this Section 1.15 by
Beneficiary shall cure or waive any Event of Default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate
any act done pursuant hereto or to any such notice, but shall be cumulative of all other rights and
remedies.



     1.16 Use of Land, Phase I-A Air Space and Leased Premises. Trustor covenants that
the Trust Estate shall be used and operated in a manner reasonably consistent with (i) the
description of the Project in the Cooperation Agreement and (ii) Section 5.4 of the Credit
Agreement.



     1.17 Affiliates and Guarantors.



     (a) Subject to Trust Deed. Subject to compliance with requirements of applicable
Nevada Gaming Laws, Trustor shall cause all of its Affiliates and Subsidiaries in any way involved
with the operation of all or a portion of the Trust Estate to observe the covenants and conditions
of this Deed of Trust to the extent necessary to give the full intended effect to such covenants
and conditions and to protect and preserve the security of Beneficiary hereunder. Trustor shall,
at Beneficiary’s request, cause any such Affiliate or Guarantor to execute and deliver to
Beneficiary or Trustee such further instruments or documents as Beneficiary may reasonably deem
necessary to effectuate the terms of this Section 1.17(a).



     (b) Restriction on Use of Subsidiary or Affiliate. Except as permitted under the
Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, Trustor shall not use any Affiliate or Subsidiary in the
operation of the Trust Estate, the Project, the Leased Premises or the Easements if such use



23









 







would in any way impair the security for the Obligations or cause a breach of any covenant of
this Deed of Trust, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents.



     1.18 Merger. So long as any of the Obligations have not been paid or performed,
unless Beneficiary shall otherwise in writing consent, the fee title and the leasehold estate under
the Casino Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding
the union of said estates either in the lessor or in the lessee, or in a third party, by purchase
or otherwise; and Trustor covenants and agrees that, if it shall acquire the fee title, or any
other estate, title or interest in the Casino Leased Premises covered by said Casino Lease, this
Deed of Trust shall be considered as mortgaged, assigned or conveyed to the Beneficiary and the
Lien hereof spread to cover such estate with the same force and effect as though specifically
herein mortgaged, assigned or conveyed and spread. The provisions of this paragraph shall not
apply if Beneficiary shall so elect.



ARTICLE TWO




CORPORATE LOAN PROVISIONS




     2.1 Interaction with Credit Agreement.



     (a) Incorporation by Reference. All terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and
requirements of the Credit Agreement are incorporated by reference in this Deed of Trust.



     (b) Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions
of this Deed of Trust and those of the Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Credit Agreement
shall govern.



     2.2 Other Collateral. This Deed of Trust is one of a number of Collateral Documents
to secure the Obligations delivered by or on behalf of Trustor pursuant to the Credit Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, the LVSC Notes Indenture and the LVSC Notes Documents and securing the
Obligations secured hereunder. All potential junior Lien claimants are placed on notice that,
under any of the Loan Documents or the LVSC Notes Documents and any other documents granting a
security interest to the Beneficiary or otherwise (such as by separate future unrecorded agreement
between Trustor and Beneficiary), other collateral for the Obligations secured hereunder (i.e.,
collateral other than the Trust Estate) may, under certain circumstances, be released without a
corresponding reduction in the total principal amount secured by this Deed of Trust. Such a
release would decrease the amount of collateral securing the Obligations, thereby increasing the
burden on the remaining Trust Estate created and continued by this Deed of Trust. No such release
shall impair the priority of the Lien of this Deed of Trust. By accepting its interest in the
Trust Estate, each and every junior Lien claimant shall be deemed to have acknowledged the
possibility of, and consented to, any such release. Nothing in this paragraph shall impose any
obligation upon Beneficiary.



24









 





ARTICLE THREE




DEFAULTS




     3.1 Event of Default. The term “Event of Default,” wherever used in this
Deed of Trust, shall mean any one or more of the events of default listed in Section 8 of the
Credit Agreement (whether any such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or come about or be
effected by operation of law or pursuant to or in compliance with any judgment, decree or order of
any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body) and it shall
be an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust if Trustor or any other “borrower” (as defined in
NRS 106.310) who may send a notice pursuant to NRS 106.380(1) with respect to this Deed of Trust
(i) delivers, sends or otherwise gives to Beneficiary (A) any notice of an election to terminate
the operation of this Deed of Trust as security for any indebtedness secured by this instrument,
including, without limitation, any obligation to repay any “future advance” (as defined in NRS
106.320) or “principal” (as defined in NRS 106.345), or (B) any other notice pursuant to NRS
106.380(1); (ii) records a statement pursuant to NRS 106.380(3); or (iii) causes this Deed of
Trust, any indebtedness secured by this instrument or Beneficiary to be subject to NRS 106.380(2),
106.380(3), or 106.400.



ARTICLE FOUR




REMEDIES




     4.1 Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default occurs, the Bank Agent may
(except that such acceleration shall be automatic if the Event of Default is caused by a Trustor’s
Bankruptcy) declare all Bank Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and upon such
declaration such principal and interest and other sums constituting Bank Secured Obligations shall
immediately become due and payable without demand, presentment, notice or other requirements of any
kind (all of which Trustor waives) notwithstanding anything in this Deed of Trust or any Loan
Document or applicable law to the contrary.



     4.2 Protective Advances. If Trustor fails to make any payment or perform any
Obligation or any other obligation under the other Operative Documents or the Resort Complex
Operative Documents, then without thereby limiting Beneficiary’s other rights or remedies, waiving
or releasing any of Trustor’s obligations, or imposing any obligation on Beneficiary, Beneficiary
may either advance any amount owing or perform any or all actions that Beneficiary considers
necessary or appropriate to cure such default; provided, that, unless an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary shall have delivered notice thereof to Trustor
and Trustor shall have failed to make such payment or perform such obligation within five (5)
Business Days of receiving such notice. All such advances shall constitute “Protective
Advances.” No sums advanced or performance rendered by Beneficiary shall cure, or be deemed a
waiver of any Event of Default.



     4.3 Institution of Equity Proceedings. If an Event of Default occurs, Beneficiary
may institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for specific performance of this Deed of
Trust or the Loan Documents or LVSC Notes Documents, all of which shall be specifically enforceable



25









 







by injunction or other equitable remedy. Trustor waives any defense based on laches or any
applicable statute of limitations.



     4.4 Beneficiary’s Power of Enforcement.



     (a) If an Event of Default occurs, Beneficiary shall be entitled, at its option and in its
sole and absolute discretion, to prepare and record on its own behalf, or to deliver to Trustee for
recording, if appropriate, written declaration of default and demand for sale and written Notice of
Default and Election to Sell (NRS 107.080) (or other statutory notice) to cause the Trust Estate to
be sold to satisfy the obligations hereof, and in the case of delivery to Trustee, Trustee shall
cause said notice to be filed for record.



     (b) After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the recordation of
said Notice of Breach and Election to Sell, and notice of sale having been given as then required
by law, including compliance with all applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, Trustee without demand on
Trustor, shall sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof at the time and place fixed by it in
said notice, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine, at
public auction to the highest bidder, of cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the
time of sale. Trustee may, for any cause it deems expedient, postpone the sale of all or any
portion of said property until it shall be completed and, in every case, notice of postponement
shall be given by public announcement thereof at the time and place last appointed for the sale and
from time to time thereafter Trustee may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time
fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser its Deed,
Bill of Sale, or other instrument conveying said property so sold, but without any covenant or
warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such instrument of conveyance of any matters or
facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any Person, including Beneficiary,
may bid at the sale.



     (c) After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Deed of Trust,
including, without limitation, costs of evidence of title and reasonable attorneys’ fees of Trustee
or Beneficiary in connection with a sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of such sale to payment
of all sums expended under the terms hereof not then repaid, with accrued interest at the Default
Rate to the payment of all other sums then secured hereby and the remainder, if any, to the Person
or Persons legally entitled thereto as provided in NRS 40.462.



     (d) Subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, if any Event of Default occurs,
Beneficiary may, either with or without entry or taking possession of the Trust Estate, and without
regard to whether or not the Obligations and other sums secured hereby shall be due and without
prejudice to the right of Beneficiary thereafter to bring an action or proceeding to foreclose or
any other action for any default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced, proceed by
any appropriate action or proceeding: (1) to enforce payment of the Obligations, to the extent
permitted by law, or the performance of any term hereof or any other right; (2) to foreclose this
Deed of Trust in any manner provided by law for the foreclosure of mortgages or deeds of trust on
real property and to sell, as an entirety or in separate lots or parcels, the Trust Estate or any
portion thereof pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements or under the judgment or decree of a
court or courts of competent jurisdiction, and Beneficiary shall be entitled to recover in any such
proceeding all costs and expenses incident thereto, including



26









 







reasonable attorneys’ fees in such amount as shall be awarded by the court; and (3) to pursue
any other remedy available to it (whether under the Loan Documents, the LVSC Notes Documents or
otherwise). In addition, subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, if any Event of
Default occurs, the Bank Agent may exercise any rights and remedies available to it under the Loan
Documents. Beneficiary shall take action either by such proceedings or by the exercise of its
powers with respect to entry or taking possession, or both, as Beneficiary may determine.



     (e) The remedies described in this Section 4.4 may be exercised with respect to all
or any portion of the Personal Property, either simultaneously with the sale of any real property
encumbered hereby or independent thereof. Beneficiary shall at any time be permitted to proceed
with respect to all or any portion of the Personal Property in any manner permitted by the UCC.
Trustor agrees that Beneficiary’s inclusion of all or any portion of the Personal Property (and all
personal property that is subject to a security interest in favor, or for the benefit, of
Beneficiary) in a sale or other remedy exercised with respect to the real property encumbered
hereby, as permitted by the UCC, is a commercially reasonable disposition of such property.



     4.5 Beneficiary’s Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and Apply Income.



     (a) Subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, if an Event of Default occurs,
(i) Trustor, upon demand of Beneficiary, shall forthwith surrender to Beneficiary the actual
possession and, if and to the extent permitted by law, Beneficiary itself, or by such officers or
agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession of all the Trust Estate including the
Personal Property, without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise, and may exclude Trustor
and its agents and employees wholly therefrom and may have joint access with Trustor to the books,
papers and accounts of Trustor; and (ii) Trustor shall pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary on
Beneficiary’s entry into possession, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, all Rents
then due and payable.



     (b) If Trustor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Trust Estate, the
Personal Property or any part thereof after Beneficiary’s demand, Beneficiary may obtain a judgment
or decree conferring on Beneficiary or Trustee the right to immediate possession or requiring
Trustor to deliver immediate possession of all or part of such property to Beneficiary or Trustee
and Trustor hereby specifically consents to the entry of such judgment or decree. Trustor shall
pay to Beneficiary or Trustee, upon demand, all reasonable costs and expenses of obtaining such
judgment or decree and reasonable compensation to Beneficiary or Trustee, their attorneys and
agents, and all such costs, expenses and compensation shall, until paid, be secured by the Lien of
this Deed of Trust.



     (c) Subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, upon every such entering upon
or taking of possession, Beneficiary or Trustee may hold, store, use, operate, manage and control
the Trust Estate and conduct the business thereof, and, from time to time in its sole and absolute
discretion and without being under any duty to so act:




     (i) make all necessary and proper maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements,
additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise
acquire additional fixtures, personalty and other property;



27









 






     (ii) insure or keep the Trust Estate insured;




     (iii) manage and operate the Trust Estate and exercise all the rights and powers of
Trustor in their name or otherwise with respect to the same;




     (iv) enter into agreements with others to exercise the powers herein granted
Beneficiary or Trustee, all as Beneficiary or Trustee from time to time may determine; and,
subject to the absolute assignment of the Rents and Leases to Beneficiary, Beneficiary or
Trustee may collect and receive all the Rents, including those past due as well as those
accruing thereafter; and shall apply the monies so received by Beneficiary or Trustee in
such priority as Beneficiary may determine to (1) the payment of interest and principal due
and payable on the Obligations, (2) the deposits for Impositions and insurance premiums due,
(3) the cost of insurance, Impositions and other proper charges upon the Trust Estate or any
part thereof; (4) the compensation, expenses and disbursements of the agents, attorneys and
other representatives of Beneficiary or Trustee; and (5) any other charges or costs required
to be paid by Trustor under the terms hereof; and




     (v) rent or sublet the Trust Estate or any portion thereof for any purpose permitted
by this Deed of Trust.



     Beneficiary or Trustee shall surrender possession of the Trust Estate and the Personal
Property to Trustor only when all that is due upon such interest and principal, Imposition and
insurance deposits, and all amounts under any of the terms of the Credit Agreement, the LVSC Notes
Indenture or this Deed of Trust, shall have been paid and other Obligations performed. The same
right of taking possession, however, shall exist if any subsequent Event of Default shall occur and
be continuing.



     4.6 Leases. Beneficiary is authorized to foreclose this Deed of Trust subject to the
rights of any tenants of the Trust Estate, and the failure to make any such tenants parties
defendant to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights shall not be, nor be
asserted by Trustor to be, a defense to any proceedings instituted by Beneficiary to collect the
sums secured hereby or to collect any deficiency remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the
Trust Estate, or any portion thereof. Unless otherwise agreed by Beneficiary in writing, all Space
Leases executed subsequent to the date hereof, or any part thereof, shall be subordinate and
inferior to the Lien of this Deed of Trust; provided, however, from time to time
Beneficiary may execute and record among the land records of the jurisdiction where this Deed of
Trust is recorded, subordination statements with respect to such of said Space Leases as
Beneficiary may designate in its sole discretion, whereby the Space Leases so designated by
Beneficiary shall be made superior to the Lien of this Deed of Trust for the term set forth in such
subordination statement. From and after the recordation of such subordination statements, and for
the respective periods as may be set forth therein, the Space Leases therein referred to shall be
superior to the Lien of this Deed of Trust and shall not be affected by any foreclosure hereof.
All such Space Leases entered into after the date hereof shall contain a provision to the effect
that the Trustor and Space Lessee recognize the right of Beneficiary to elect and to effect such
subordination of this Deed of Trust and consents thereto. Beneficiary acknowledges and agrees



28









 







that the Lien of this Deed of Trust is subject and subordinate to the HVAC Ground Lease, the
Casino Level Mall Lease and the Cooperation Agreement.



     4.7 Purchase by Beneficiary. Upon any foreclosure sale (whether judicial or
nonjudicial), Beneficiary may bid for and purchase the property subject to such sale and, upon
compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in its
own absolute right without further accountability.



     4.8 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption Laws. Trustor
agrees to the full extent permitted by Legal Requirements that if an Event of Default occurs,
neither Trustor nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take
advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in
force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or the
absolute sale of the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or the final and absolute putting into
possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Trustor for itself
and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it
may lawfully so do, the benefit of all such Legal Requirements, and any and all right to have the
assets comprising the Trust Estate marshalled upon any foreclosure of the Lien hereof and agrees
that Trustee or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such Lien may sell the Trust Estate in
part or as an entirety.



     4.9 Receiver. If an Event of Default occurs, Beneficiary, to the extent permitted by
law and subject to compliance with all applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, and without regard to the
value, adequacy or occupancy of the security for the Obligations and other sums secured hereby,
shall be entitled as a matter of right if it so elects to the appointment of a receiver to enter
upon and take possession of the Trust Estate and to collect all Rents and apply the same as the
court may direct, and such receiver may be appointed by any court of competent jurisdiction upon
application by Beneficiary. Beneficiary may have a receiver appointed without notice to Trustor or
any third party, and Beneficiary may waive any requirement that the receiver post a bond.
Beneficiary shall have the power to designate and select the Person who shall serve as the receiver
and to negotiate all terms and conditions under which such receiver shall serve. Any receiver
appointed on Beneficiary’s behalf may be an Affiliate of Beneficiary. The expenses, including
receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s compensation, incurred pursuant to the powers
herein contained shall be secured by this Deed of Trust. The right to enter and take possession of
and to manage and operate the Trust Estate and to collect all Rents, whether by a receiver or
otherwise, shall be cumulative to any other right or remedy available to Beneficiary under this
Deed of Trust, the Credit Agreement or otherwise available to Beneficiary and may be exercised
concurrently therewith or independently thereof. Beneficiary shall be liable to account only for
such Rents (including, without limitation, security deposits) actually received by Beneficiary,
whether received pursuant to this Section 4.9 or any other provision hereof.
Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Beneficiary shall be entitled
as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash, deposits, or instruments at the time held by,
or payable or deliverable under the terms of this Deed of Trust to, Beneficiary.



     4.10 Suits to Protect the Trust Estate. Beneficiary shall have the power and
authority to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as Beneficiary, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may deem advisable (a) to prevent any impairment of the Trust Estate by any
acts



29









 







which may be unlawful or in violation of this Deed of Trust, (b) to preserve or protect its
interest in the Trust Estate, or (c) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any Legal
Requirement that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of or compliance
with such enactment, rule or order might impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to
Beneficiary’s interest.



     4.11 Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, Insolvency, Bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceedings affecting
Trustor, or, to the extent the same would result in an Event of Default hereunder, any Subsidiary,
or any guarantor, co-maker or endorser of any of Trustor’s obligations, its creditors or its
property, Beneficiary, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of
claim or other documents as it may deem to be necessary or advisable in order to have its claims
allowed in such proceedings for the entire amount of the Obligations, at the date of the
institution of such proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable by
Trustor after such date.



     4.12 Trustor to Pay the Obligations on Any Default in Payment; Application of Monies by
Beneficiary.



     (a) In case of a foreclosure sale of all or any part of the Trust Estate and of the
application of the proceeds of sale to the payment of the sums secured hereby, Beneficiary shall be
entitled to enforce payment from Trustor of any additional amounts then remaining due and unpaid
and to recover judgment against Trustor for any portion thereof remaining unpaid, with interest at
the Default Rate in accordance with Section 4.19 hereof.



     (b) Trustor hereby agrees to the extent permitted by law, that no recovery of any such
judgment by Beneficiary or other action by Beneficiary and no attachment or levy of any execution
upon any of the Trust Estate or any other property shall in any way affect the Lien and security
interest of this Deed of Trust upon the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any Lien, rights,
powers or remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, but such Lien, rights, powers and remedies shall
continue unimpaired as before.



     4.13 Delay or Omission; No Waiver. No delay or omission of Beneficiary to exercise
any right, power or remedy upon any Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power
or remedy or shall be construed to waive any such Event of Default or to constitute acquiescence
therein. Every right, power and remedy given to Beneficiary whether contained herein or in the
Credit Agreement or otherwise available to Beneficiary may be exercised from time to time and as
often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary.



     4.14 No Waiver of One Default to Affect Another. No waiver of any Event of Default
hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Event of Default then existing, or
impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon. If Beneficiary (a) grants forbearance or
an extension of time for the payment of any sums secured hereby; (b) takes other or additional
security for the payment thereof; (c) waives or does not exercise any right granted in this Deed of
Trust or any other Loan Document or LVSC Notes Document; (d) releases any part of the Trust Estate
from the Lien or security interest of this Deed of Trust or any other instrument securing the
Obligations; (e) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat of the Site (to the extent such



30









 







consent is required); (f) consents to the granting of any easement on the Site, the Project or
the Improvements (to the extent such consent is required); or (g) makes or consents to any
agreement changing the terms of this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document or LVSC Notes
Document for the benefit of Beneficiary subordinating the Lien or any charge hereof, no such act or
omission shall release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under this Deed
of Trust or any other Loan Document or LVSC Notes Document for the benefit of Beneficiary or
otherwise of Trustor, or any subsequent purchaser of the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any
maker, co-signer, surety or guarantor. No such act or omission shall preclude Beneficiary from
exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in case of any
Event of Default then existing or of any subsequent Event of Default, nor, except as otherwise
expressly provided in an instrument or instruments executed by Beneficiary, shall the Lien or
security interest of this Deed of Trust be altered thereby, except to the extent expressly provided
in any releases, maps, easements or subordinations described in clause (d), (e),
(f) or (g) above of this Section 4.14. In the event of the sale or
transfer by operation of law or otherwise of all or any part of the Trust Estate, Beneficiary,
without notice to any Person is hereby authorized and empowered to deal with any such vendee or
transferee with reference to the Trust Estate or the Obligations secured hereby, or with reference
to any of the terms or conditions hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it might deal with the
original parties hereto and without in any way releasing or discharging any of the liabilities or
undertakings hereunder, or waiving its right to declare such sale or transfer an Event of Default
as provided herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust or
the other Loan Documents or LVSC Notes Documents, (i) in the case of any non-monetary Event of
Default, Beneficiary may continue to accept payments due hereunder without thereby waiving the
existence of such or any other Event of Default and (ii) in the case of any monetary Event of
Default, Beneficiary may accept partial payments of any sums due hereunder without thereby waiving
the existence of such Event of Default if the partial payment is not sufficient to completely cure
such Event of Default.



     4.15 Discontinuance of Proceedings; Position of Parties Restored. If Beneficiary
shall have proceeded to enforce any right or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure, entry
of judgment or otherwise and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason, or such proceedings shall have resulted in a final determination adverse to Beneficiary,
then and in every such case Trustor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions and
rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of Beneficiary shall continue as if no such
proceedings had occurred or had been taken.



     4.16 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy, including without limitation
remedies with respect to any security for the Obligations, conferred upon or reserved to
Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document or LVSC Notes Document is exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given
hereunder or under any Loan Document, now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute,
and Beneficiary shall be entitled to resort to such rights, powers, remedies or security as
Beneficiary shall in its sole and absolute discretion deem advisable.



     4.17 Interest After Event of Default. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and
is continuing, outstanding and unpaid Obligations under the Loan Documents shall, at



31









 







Beneficiary’s option, bear interest at the Default Rate until such Event of Default has been
cured. Trustor’s obligation to pay such interest shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and the
other Collateral Documents.



     4.18 Foreclosure; Expenses of Litigation. If Trustee forecloses, reasonable
attorneys’ fees for services in the supervision of said foreclosure proceeding shall be allowed to
the Trustee and Beneficiary as part of the foreclosure costs. In the event of foreclosure of the
Lien hereof, there shall be allowed and included as additional Obligations all reasonable
expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Beneficiary for
attorneys’ fees, appraiser’s fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’
charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be estimated as to items to be expended after
foreclosure sale or entry of the decree) of procuring all such abstracts of title, title searches
and examinations, title insurance policies and guarantees, and similar data and assurances with
respect to title as Beneficiary may deem reasonably advisable either to prosecute such suit or to
evidence to a bidder at any sale which may be had pursuant to such decree the true condition of the
title to or the value of the Trust Estate or any portion thereof. All expenditures and expenses of
the nature in this Section 4.18 mentioned, and such expenses and fees as may be incurred if
the protection of the Trust Estate and the maintenance of the Lien and security interest of this
Deed of Trust, including the fees of any attorney employed by Beneficiary in any litigation or
proceeding affecting this Deed of Trust or any Loan Document, the Trust Estate or any portion
thereof, including, without limitation, civil, probate, appellate and bankruptcy proceedings, or in
preparation for the commencement or defense of any proceeding or threatened suit or proceeding,
shall be immediately due and payable by Trustor, with interest thereon at the Default Rate, and
shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and the other Collateral Documents. Trustee waives its
right to any statutory fee in connection with any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of the Lien
hereof and agrees to accept a reasonable fee for such services.



     4.19 Deficiency Judgments. If after foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or Trustee’s
sale hereunder, there shall remain any deficiency with respect to any amounts payable hereunder or
any amounts secured hereby, and Beneficiary shall institute any proceedings to recover such
deficiency or deficiencies, all such amounts shall continue to bear interest at the Default Rate.
Trustor waives any defense to Beneficiary’s recovery against Trustor of any deficiency after any
foreclosure sale of the Trust Estate. Trustor expressly waives any defense or benefits that may be
derived from any statute granting Trustor any defense to any such recovery by Beneficiary. In
addition, Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to recovery of all of their reasonable costs
and expenditures (including without limitation any court imposed costs) in connection with such
proceedings, including their reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraisal fees and the other costs, fees
and expenditures referred to in Section 4.18 above. This provision shall survive any
foreclosure or sale of the Trust Estate, any portion thereof and/or the extinguishment of the Lien
hereof.



     4.20 Waiver of July Trial. Beneficiary and Trustor each waive any right to have a
jury participate in resolving any dispute whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise arising
out of, connected with, related to or incidental to the relationship established between them in
connection with this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document or LVSC Notes Document. Any such
disputes shall be resolved in a bench trial without a jury.



32









 





     4.21 Exculpation of Beneficiary. The acceptance by Beneficiary of the assignment
contained herein with all of the rights, powers, privileges and authority created hereby shall not,
prior to entry upon and taking possession of the Trust Estate by Beneficiary, be deemed or
construed to make Beneficiary a “mortgagee in possession”; nor thereafter or at any time or in any
event obligate Beneficiary to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Space
Leases, the Rents or the Trust Estate, or to take any action hereunder or to expend any money or
incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under any Space Lease
or to assume any obligation or responsibility for any security deposits or other deposits except to
the extent such deposits are actually received by Beneficiary, nor shall Beneficiary, prior to such
entry and taking, be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by
any Person in or about the Trust Estate.



     4.22 Collateral Agent.



     (a) By their acceptance of the benefits and Liens granted under this Deed of Trust, (i) the
LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee is hereby deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent to act on
behalf of the holders of the LVSC Notes as their agent hereunder for purposes of the grant of the
Liens provided hereunder securing the LVSC Notes Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 8
of the Security Agreement, and (ii) the holders of the LVSC Notes are hereby deemed to consent to
such appointment.



     (b) The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Beneficiary hereunder by, and shall,
subject to the next sentence, act on behalf of the Lenders and the holders of the LVSC Notes. The
Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give
notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any
action, solely in accordance with this Deed of Trust; provided that the Collateral Agent shall only
exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies hereunder in accordance with the instructions of
the Bank Agent. In furtherance of the foregoing, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, each
Lender and holder of the LVSC Notes agrees that it shall have no right individually to enforce this
Deed of Trust, it being understood and agreed by such that all rights and remedies hereunder may be
exercised solely by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.22.



ARTICLE FIVE




RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEE;



OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO TRUSTEE




     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deed of Trust, Trustor and Beneficiary agree
as follows.



     5.1 Exercise of Remedies by Trustee. To the extent that this Deed of Trust or
applicable law, including all applicable Nevada Gaming Laws, authorizes or empowers, or does not
require approval for, Beneficiary to exercise any remedies set forth in Article 4 hereof or
otherwise, or perform any acts in connection therewith, Trustee (but not to the exclusion of
Beneficiary unless so required under the law of the State) shall have the power to exercise any or
all such remedies, and to perform any acts provided for in this Deed of Trust in connection
therewith, all for the



33









 







benefit of Beneficiary and on Beneficiary’s behalf in accordance with applicable law of the
State. In connection therewith, Trustee: (a) shall not exercise, or waive the exercise of, any
Beneficiary’s remedies (other than any rights of Trustee to any indemnity or reimbursement), except
at Beneficiary’s request, and (b) shall exercise, or waive the exercise of, any or all of
Beneficiary’s remedies at Beneficiary’s request, and in accordance with Beneficiary’s directions as
to the manner of such exercise or waiver. Trustee may, however, decline to follow Beneficiary’s
request or direction if Trustee shall be advised by counsel that the action or proceeding, or
manner thereof, so directed may not lawfully be taken or waived.



     5.2 Rights and Privileges of Trustee. To the extent that this Deed of Trust requires
Trustor to indemnify Beneficiary or reimburse Beneficiary for any expenditures Beneficiary may
incur, Trustee shall be entitled to the same indemnity and the same rights to reimbursement of
expenses as Beneficiary, subject to such limitations and conditions as would apply in the case of
Beneficiary. To the extent that this Deed of Trust negates or limits Beneficiary’s liability as to
any matter, Trustee shall be entitled to the same negation or limitation of liability. To the
extent that Trustor, pursuant to this Deed of Trust, appoints Beneficiary as Trustor’s attorney in
fact for any purpose, Beneficiary or (when so instructed by Beneficiary) Trustee shall be entitled
to act on Trustor’s behalf without joinder or confirmation by the other.



     5.3 Resignation or Replacement of Trustee. Trustee may resign by an instrument in
writing addressed to Beneficiary, and Trustee may be removed at any time with or without cause
(i.e., in Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion) by an instrument in writing executed by
Beneficiary. In case of the death, resignation, removal or disqualification of Trustee or if for
any reason Beneficiary shall deem it desirable to appoint a substitute, successor or replacement
Trustee to act instead of Trustee originally named (or in place of any substitute, successor or
replacement Trustee), then Beneficiary shall have the right and is hereby authorized and empowered
to appoint a successor, substitute or replacement Trustee, without any formality other than
appointment and designation in writing executed by Beneficiary, which instrument shall be recorded
if required by the law of the State. The laws of the State (including, without limitation, the
Nevada Gaming Laws) shall govern the qualification of any Trustee. The authority conferred upon
Trustee by this Deed of Trust shall automatically extend to any and all other successor, substitute
and replacement Trustee(s) successively until the obligations secured hereunder have been paid in
full or the Trust Estate has been sold hereunder or released in accordance with the provisions of
the Loan Documents to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants a security for the benefit
of the Beneficiary. Beneficiary’s written appointment and designation of any Trustee shall be full
evidence of Beneficiary’s right and authority to make the same and of all facts therein recited.
No confirmation, authorization, approval or other action by Trustor shall be required in connection
with any resignation or other replacement of Trustee.



     5.4 Authority of Beneficiary. If Beneficiary is a banking corporation, state banking
corporation or a national banking association and the instrument of appointment of any successor or
replacement Trustee is executed on Beneficiary’s behalf by an officer of such corporation, state
banking corporation or national banking association, then such appointment shall be conclusively
presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any
action by the board of directors or any superior officer of Beneficiary.



34









 





     5.5 Effect of Appointment of Successor Trustee. Upon the appointment and designation
of any successor, substitute or replacement Trustee, and subject to compliance with applicable
Nevada Gaming Laws and other applicable Legal Requirements, Trustee’s entire estate and title in
the Trust Estate shall vest in the designated successor, substitute or replacement Trustee. Such
successor, substitute or replacement Trustee shall thereupon succeed to and shall hold, possess and
execute all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon Trustee.
All references herein to Trustee shall be deemed to refer to Trustee (including any successor or
substitute appointed and designated as herein provided) from time to time acting hereunder.



     5.6 Confirmation of Transfer and Succession. Upon the written request of Beneficiary
or of any successor, substitute or replacement Trustee, any former Trustee ceasing to act shall
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor, substitute or replacement Trustee
all of the right, title, estate and interest in the Trust Estate of Trustee so ceasing to act,
together with all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon
Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all properties and moneys held by said Trustee
hereunder to said successor, substitute or replacement Trustee.



     5.7 Exculpation. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment or act done
by Trustee in good faith, or otherwise be responsible or accountable under any circumstances
whatsoever, except for Trustee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or knowing violation of any
Legal Requirement. Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature
authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by it hereunder, believed by it
in good faith to be genuine. All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein
provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be
segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by law). Trustee
shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder.



     5.8 Endorsement and Execution of Documents. Upon Beneficiary’s written request,
Trustee shall, without liability or notice to Trustor, execute, consent to, or join in any
instrument or agreement in connection with or necessary to effectuate the purposes of the Loan
Documents to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants a security interest for the benefit
of the Beneficiary. Trustor hereby irrevocably designates Trustee as its attorney in fact to
execute, acknowledge and deliver, on Trustor’s behalf and in Trustor’s name, all instruments or
agreements necessary to implement any provision(s) of this Deed of Trust or to further perfect the
Lien created by this Deed of Trust on the Trust Estate. This power of attorney shall be deemed to
be coupled with an interest and shall survive any disability of Trustor.



     5.9 Multiple Trustees. If Beneficiary appoints multiple trustees, then any Trustee,
individually, may exercise all powers granted to Trustee under this instrument, without the need
for action by any other Trustee(s).



     5.10 Terms of Trustee’s Acceptance. Trustee accepts the trust created by this Deed
of Trust upon the following terms and conditions:



     (a) Delegation. Trustee may exercise any of its powers through appointment of
attorney(s) in fact or agents.



35









 





     (b) Counsel. Trustee may select and employ legal counsel (including any law firm
representing Beneficiary). Trustor shall reimburse all reasonable legal fees and expenses that
Trustee may thereby incur.



     (c) Security. Trustee shall be under no obligation to take any action upon any Event
of Default unless furnished security or indemnity, in form satisfactory to Trustee, against costs,
expenses, and liabilities that Trustee may incur.



     (d) Costs and Expenses. Trustor shall reimburse Trustee, as part of the Obligations
secured hereunder, for all reasonable disbursements and expenses (including reasonable legal fees
and expenses and any expenses incurred by Trustee in complying with the Nevada Gaming Laws and
Gaming Licenses) incurred by reason of and as provided for in this Deed of Trust, including any of
the foregoing incurred in Trustee’s administering and executing the trust created by this Deed of
Trust and performing Trustee’s duties and exercising Trustee’s powers under this Deed of Trust.



     (e) Release. Upon satisfaction of the conditions for reconveyance contained in
Section 6.10 hereof, Beneficiary shall request that Trustee release this Deed of Trust and
Trustee shall release this Deed of Trust and reconvey the Trust Estate in accordance with
Section 6.10 hereof, provided, however, that Trustor shall pay all costs of
recordation, if any, and all of Trustee’s and Beneficiary’s costs and expenses in connection with
such release, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

     6.3 Change of Notice Address. Any Person may change the address to which any such
notice, report, demand or other instrument is to be delivered or mailed to that person, by
furnishing written notice of such change to the other parties, but no such notice of change shall
be effective unless and until received by such other parties.



     6.4 Headings. The headings of the articles, sections, paragraphs and subdivisions of
this Deed of Trust are for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof,
and shall not limit or expand or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.



     6.5 Invalid Provisions to Affect No Others. In the event that any of the covenants,
agreements, terms or provisions contained herein or in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any LVSC Notes Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity of the Lien hereof and the remaining covenants, agreements, terms or provisions contained
herein or in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any LVSC Notes Document shall be in
no way affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby. To the



37









 







extent permitted by law, Trustor waives any provision of law which renders any provision
hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.



     6.6 Changes and Priority Over Intervening Liens. Neither this Deed of Trust nor any
term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, or by any action or inaction,
but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change,
waiver, discharge or termination is sought. Any agreement hereafter made by Trustor and
Beneficiary relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any
intervening Lien or encumbrance.



     6.7 Estoppel Certificates. Within ten (10) Business Days after Beneficiary’s written
request, Trustor shall from time to time execute a certificate, in recordable form (an
“Estoppel Certificate”), stating, except to the extent it would be inaccurate to so state:
(a) the current amount of the Obligations secured hereunder and all elements thereof, including
principal, interest, and all other elements; (b) that Trustor has no defense, offset, claim,
counterclaim, right of recoupment, deduction, or reduction against any of the Obligations secured
hereunder; (c) that none of the Loan Documents to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants
a security interest for the benefit of the Beneficiary have been amended, whether orally or in
writing; (d) that Trustor has no claims against Beneficiary of any kind; (e) that any Power of
Attorney granted to Beneficiary is in full force and effect; and (f) such other matters relating to
this Deed of Trust, any Loan Document to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants a
security interest for the benefit of the Beneficiary and the relationship of Trustor and
Beneficiary as Beneficiary shall reasonably request. In addition, the Estoppel Certificate shall
set forth the reasons why it would be inaccurate to make any of the foregoing assurances (“a”
through “f”).



     6.8 Waiver of Setoff and Counterclaim. All amounts due under this Deed of Trust or
any other Loan Document to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants a security interest for
the benefit of the Beneficiary shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim or any deduction
whatsoever. Trustor hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim (other than a compulsory
counterclaim) in any action or proceeding brought against it by Beneficiary and/or any Lender under
the Credit Agreement, or arising out of or in any way connected with this Deed of Trust, or the
other Loan Documents, to which the Beneficiary is a party or which grants a security interest for
the benefit of the Beneficiary or the Obligations.



     6.9 Governing Law. The Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents and the LVSC Notes
Documents provide that they are governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the
laws of the State of New York. This Deed of Trust shall also be construed under and governed by
the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflicts of law rules and
principles of New York; provided, however, that (i) the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust
pertaining to the priority, perfection, enforcement or realization by Beneficiary of its respective
rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust with respect to the Trust Estate shall be governed and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State without giving effect to
the conflicts-of-law rules and principles of the State; (ii) Trustor agrees that to the extent
deficiency judgments are available under the laws of the State after a foreclosure (judicial or
nonjudicial) of the Trust Estate, or any portion thereof, or any other realization thereon by
Beneficiary or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee,
Beneficiary or such Lender or the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee, as the case may be,



38









 







shall have the right to seek such a deficiency judgment against Trustor in the State; and
(iii) Trustor agrees that if Beneficiary or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or the LVSC Notes
Indenture Trustee obtains a deficiency judgment in another state against Trustor, then Beneficiary
or such Lender or the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the right to
enforce such judgment in the State to the extent permitted under the laws of the State, as well as
in other states. Nothing contained in this Section 6.9 shall be deemed to expand the
limitations set forth in Section 10.14 of the Credit Agreement.



     6.10 Reconveyance. In the event that (i) the Bank Secured Obligations are
indefeasibly repaid in full, (ii) any part of the Trust Estate is sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed of by Trustor in accordance with the Credit Agreement or (iii) any part of the Trust
Estate is otherwise released in accordance with the Credit Agreement or with the consent of the
Requisite Lenders, the Trust Estate (in the case of clause (i) of this Section 6.10) or
portion thereof (in the case of clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 6.10) will be sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of, and released free and clear of the Liens created by this Deed
of Trust and the Beneficiary, at the request and expense of the Trustor, will duly and promptly
assign, transfer, deliver and release to the Trustor or its designee (without recourse and without
any representation or warranty) such of the Trust Estate as is then being (or has been) so sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of or released. In connection with any disposition or release
pursuant to this Section 6.10, Beneficiary shall, at Trustor’s expense, cause Trustee to
reconvey, without warranty the Trust Estate or portion thereof being disposed or released, as the
case may be, and to execute and deliver to Trustor such documents (including UCC-3 termination
statements) as Trustor may reasonably request. The recitals in such reconveyance of any matters or
facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. The grantee in such reconveyance may
be described as “the person or persons legally entitled thereto.”



     6.11 Attorneys’ Fees. Without limiting any other provision contained herein, Trustor
agrees to pay all costs of Beneficiary or Trustee incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Deed of Trust, including without limitation all reasonable attorneys’ fees whether or not suit
is commenced, and including, without limitation, fees incurred in connection with any probate,
appellate, bankruptcy, deficiency or any other litigation proceedings, all of which sums shall be
secured hereby.



     6.12 Late Charges. By accepting payment of any sum secured hereby after its due
date, Beneficiary does not waive its right to collect any late charge thereon or unpaid interest
thereon at the interest rates provided in the Loan Documents and the LVSC Notes Documents or its
right either to require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare default
for failure to pay any amounts not so paid.



     6.13 Cost of Accounting. Trustor shall pay to Beneficiary, for and on account of the
preparation and rendition of any accounting, which Trustor may be entitled to require under any law
or statute now or hereafter providing therefor, the reasonable costs thereof.



     6.14 Right of Entry. Subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws and
the terms of the Space Leases, Beneficiary may at any reasonable time or times and on reasonable
prior written notice to Trustor make or cause to be made entry upon and inspections of the Trust
Estate or any part thereof in person or by agent.



39









 





     6.15 Corrections. Trustor shall, upon request of Beneficiary or Trustee, promptly
correct any defect, error or omission which may be discovered in the contents of this Deed of Trust
(including, but not limited to, in the exhibits and schedules attached hereto) or in the execution
or acknowledgement hereof, and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and
do such further acts as may be necessary or as may be reasonably requested by Trustee to carry out
more effectively the purposes of this Deed of Trust, to subject to the Lien and security interest
hereby created any of Trustor’s properties, rights or interest covered or intended to be covered
hereby, and to perfect and maintain such Lien and security interest.



     6.16 Statute of Limitations. To the fullest extent allowed by the law, the right to
plead, use or assert any statute of limitations as a plea or defense or bar of any kind, or for any
purpose, to any debt, demand or obligation secured or to be secured hereby, or to any complaint or
other pleading or proceeding filed, instituted or maintained for the purpose of enforcing this Deed
of Trust or any rights hereunder, is hereby waived by Trustor.



     6.17 Subrogation. Should the proceeds of any Loan or advance made by Beneficiary to
Trustor, repayment of which is hereby secured, or any part thereof, or any amount paid out or
advanced by Beneficiary, be used directly or indirectly to pay off, discharge, or satisfy, in whole
or in part, any prior or superior Lien or encumbrance upon the Trust Estate, or any part thereof,
then, as additional security hereunder, Trustee, on behalf of Beneficiary, shall be subrogated to
any and all rights, superior titles, Liens, and equities owned or claimed by any owner or holder of
said outstanding Liens, charges, and indebtedness, however remote, regardless of whether said
Liens, charges, and indebtedness are acquired by assignment or have been released of record by the
holder thereof upon payment.



     6.18 Joint and Several Liability. All obligations of Trustor hereunder, if more than
one, are joint and several. Recourse for deficiency after sale hereunder may be had against the
property of Trustor, without, however, creating a present or other Lien or charge thereon.



     6.19 Homestead. Trustor hereby waives and renounces all homestead and exemption
rights provided by the constitution and the laws of the United States and of any state, in and to
the Trust Estate as against the collection of the Obligations, or any part hereof.



     6.20 Context. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the neuter
includes the masculine and feminine, and the singular including the plural, and vice versa.



     6.21 Time. Time is of the essence of each and every term, covenant and condition
hereof. Unless otherwise specified herein, any reference to “days” in this Deed of Trust shall be
deemed to mean “calendar days.”



     6.22 Interpretation. As used in this Deed of Trust unless the context clearly
requires otherwise: The terms “herein” or “hereunder” and similar terms without reference to a
particular section shall refer to the entire Deed of Trust and not just to the section in which
such terms appear.



     6.23 Effect of NRS § 107.030. To the extent not inconsistent with the other
provisions of this Deed of Trust, the following covenants are hereby adopted and made a part of
this Deed



40









 







of Trust: Nos. 1; 2 (pursuant to Section 1.8 above); 3; 4 (at the Default Rate); 5; 6; 7 (in a
reasonable percentage); 8 and 9 of NRS 107.030.



     6.24 Amendments. This Deed of Trust cannot be waived, changed, discharged or
terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom
enforcement of any waiver, change, discharge or termination is sought and only as permitted by the
provisions of the Credit Agreement.



     6.25 No Conflicts. In the event that any of the provisions contained herein conflict
with the Security Agreement, then the provisions contained in the Security Agreement shall prevail.



     6.26 Subject Lease Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any
estoppel certificate delivered in connection with the Credit Agreement, Beneficiary shall, upon
request by Trustor or its designee, approve any amendment to a Subject Lease which is not
prohibited by Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement.
