______________, 2004, as Deed Book No. _______, Page No. __________, in the
Official Records of the County Recorder of Harrison County, Mississippi
(together with all amendments, increases, renewals, modifications,
consolidations, spreaders, combinations, supplements, replacements,
substitutions, and extensions, either current or future, referred to hereafter
as the "DEED OF TRUST") encumbering Landlord's ownership interest in real
property located in Biloxi, State of Mississippi and assigning all leases,
rents, issues and profits from the Premises. The legal description of the
encumbered real property (the "PREMISES") is set forth in Exhibit A, attached to
this Agreement. The Deed of Trust, the Indenture, the First Mortgage Notes, the
Collateral Documents (as defined in the Indenture), and other documents executed
in connection with it are hereafter collectively referred to as the "FINANCING
DOCUMENTS."

     C.   On December 30, 2003, Tenant and Landlord entered into that certain
Lease Agreement (Cafe) for a portion of the Premises (the "LEASE"). The Lease
creates a leasehold estate in favor of Tenant for space (the "LEASED PREMISES")
located on the Premises.

                                    AGREEMENT

     TO CONFIRM their understanding concerning the legal effect of the Deed of
Trust and the Lease, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement and other valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Trustee and Tenant, intending to
be legally bound, agree and covenant as follows:

     1.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Tenant warrants and represents that
the Lease is in full force and effect and that, as of the date of this Agreement
and to the best of Tenant's knowledge, there is no default under the Lease by
Landlord or Tenant.

     2.   RESERVED.

     3.   TENANT SUBORDINATION.

          3.1  Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Financing
Documents shall constitute a lien or charge on the Premises that is prior and
superior to the Lease, to the leasehold estate created by it, and to all rights
and privileges of Tenant under it; by this Agreement, the Lease, the leasehold
estate created by it, together with all rights and privileges of Tenant under
it, is subordinated, at all times, to the lien or charge of the Financing
Documents in favor of Trustee.

          3.2  By executing this Agreement, Tenant subordinates the Lease and
Tenant's interest under it to the lien right and security title and to all
advances or payments made, or to be made, under any Financing Document.

     4.   NONDISTURBANCE.

          4.1  Trustee consents to the Lease.

          4.2  Despite Tenant's subordination under SECTION 3, and subject to
the termination provisions set forth in SECTION 6 and SECTION 11, Tenant's
peaceful and quiet possession of the Leased Premises shall not be disturbed and
Tenant's rights and privileges under

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        2

the Lease shall not be diminished,
modified, enlarged or otherwise affected during the term of the Lease, as
extended, by Trustee's exercise of its rights or remedies under the Financing
Documents (subject to the provisions of SECTION 6 or otherwise), provided that
Tenant:

               (a)  is not in default in the payment of the rent or additional
     rent or in the performance of any of the other material terms, covenants,
     or conditions of the Lease that Tenant is required to perform (beyond any
     period given Tenant under the Lease to cure such default); and

               (b)  has not canceled or terminated the Lease (without regard to
     whether Landlord or Tenant is then in default under the Lease), nor
     surrendered the Leased Premises.

          4.3  If (a) Trustee or any Transferee (as hereinafter defined) shall
acquire title to, and possession of, the Leased Premises on foreclosure in an
action in which Trustee shall have been required to name Tenant as a party
defendant, and (b) Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond any
applicable cure or grace periods, has not canceled or terminated the Lease
(without regard to whether Landlord or Tenant is then in default under the
Lease), nor surrendered the Leased Premises at the time Trustee or such
Transferee shall so acquire title to, and possession of, the Leased Premises,
Trustee or such Transferee and Tenant shall enter into a new lease on the same
terms and conditions as were contained in the Lease, except that:

               (a)  Trustee or the Transferee shall have no obligations or
     liabilities to Tenant under any such new lease beyond those of Landlord (or
     its predecessors-in-interest) as were contained in the Lease; and

               (b)  the expiration date of any new lease shall coincide with the
     original expiration date of the Lease, together with any remaining
     extension options.

          4.4  Tenant shall not be named or joined in any foreclosure, trustee's
sale, or other proceeding to enforce the Financing Documents unless such joinder
shall be legally required to perfect the foreclosure, trustee's sale, or other
proceeding.

          4.5  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
but subject to SECTION 6, simultaneously with acquiring the Landlord's interest
under the Lease (whether by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise), the Trustee or any Transferee, as the case may be, shall (a) abide
by the provisions of the Lease, (b) expressly and unconditionally assume in
writing all obligations of Landlord under the Lease that arise or are to be
performed from and after the date of such assumption, (c) cure all monetary
defaults such that the aggregate amount of outstanding monetary defaults (after
such cure) is not more than the sum of all rental payments made by Tenant during
the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date upon which the Trustee
or the Transferee, as the case may be, acquires the Landlord's interest under
the Lease (the remaining uncured monetary default being subject to a right of
set-off against future rents due under the Lease), and (d) agree in writing to
cure all non-monetary defaults of Landlord under the Lease reasonably capable of
cure within a reasonable period after acquiring the Landlord's interest under
the Lease.

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

     5.   ATTORNMENT.

          5.1  If Trustee shall succeed to Landlord's interest in the Premises
by foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, by deed in lieu of foreclosure, or in any
other manner, Tenant shall be bound to Trustee under all the terms, covenants
and conditions of the Lease for the balance of its term with the same force and
effect as if Trustee were the Landlord under the Lease. Tenant shall be deemed
to have full and complete attornment to, and to have established direct privity
between Tenant and any of the following, after the same has satisfied all of the
requirements of Section 4.5 (a) through (d) hereof as of the date such transfer
of the Landlord's interest in the Lease:

               (a)   Trustee when in possession of the Premises;

               (b)   a receiver appointed in any action or proceeding to
     foreclose the Deed of Trust;

               (c)   any party acquiring title to the Premises;

               (d)   any successor to Landlord; or

               (e)   any successor to Trustee.

          5.2  Except as provided in Section 5.1 hereof, Tenant's attornment is
self-operating, and it shall continue to be effective without execution of any
further instrument by any of the parties to this Agreement or the Lease. Trustee
agrees to give Tenant written notice if Trustee has succeeded to the interest of
Landlord under the Lease. Subject to SECTION 6, the terms of the Lease are
incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

          5.3  If the interests of Landlord under the Lease are transferred by
foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise, to
a party other than Trustee ("TRANSFEREE"), in consideration of, and as condition
precedent to, Tenant's agreement to attorn to any such Transferee, Transferee
shall comply with the requirements of Section 4.5 (a) through (d) hereof as of
the date such transfer of the Landlord's interest in the Lease.

     6.   TRUSTEE AS LANDLORD. If Trustee or any Transferee shall succeed to the
interest of Landlord under the Lease (any such successor (including the
Trustee), a "SUCCESSOR"), Successor shall be bound to Tenant under all the
terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, and Tenant shall, from the date of
Successor's succession to Landlord's interest under the Lease, have the same
remedies against Successor for breach of the Lease that Tenant would have had
under the Lease against Landlord; provided, however, that despite anything to
the contrary in this Agreement or the Lease, any Successor shall not be:

               (a)  except as otherwise provided herein, liable for any act or
     omission of any previous landlord (including Landlord), provided that the
     foregoing shall not be construed to limit Tenant's right to possession of
     the Leased Premises for the entire term of the Lease, as extended, on the
     terms and conditions of the Lease;

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        4
<Page>

               (b)  liable for any security deposit not received by Trustee, or
     bound by any rent or additional rent that Tenant may have paid for more
     than one month in advance to any previous landlord (including Landlord);

               (c)  bound by any covenant to undertake or complete any
     construction of the Premises, the Leased Premises, or any portion of them
     if any Successor elects not to undertake or complete such construction by
     giving notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such Successor
     succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease; provided, however, if
     any Successor so elects, then Tenant may, as its sole remedy against
     Trustee or any Successor, terminate the Lease by providing notice thereof
     to such Successor within fifteen (15) days after such Successor gives
     written notice of such election to Tenant, and in the event Tenant
     terminates the Lease in the manner provide above, such Successor shall pay
     to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of costs and expenses actually
     incurred by Tenant in designing, constructing and installing improvements
     to the Leased Premises ("TENANT IMPROVEMENTS") to prepare the Leased
     Premises for Tenant's use (such costs and expenses, "TENANT IMPROVEMENT
     COSTS") within thirty (30) days after such Successor receives an invoice
     therefor; nor

               (d)  bound by any obligation to repair, replace, rebuild or
     restore the Premises, the Leased Premises, or any portion of them, in the
     event of damage by fire or other casualty, or in the event of partial
     condemnation if any Successor elects not to undertake or complete such
     repair, replacement, rebuilding or restoration by giving notice to Tenant
     within thirty (30) days after such Successor succeeds to the interest of
     Landlord under the Lease; provided, however, if any Successor so elects,
     then Tenant may, as its sole remedy against such Successor, terminate the
     Lease by providing notice thereof to such Successor within fifteen (15)
     days after such Successor gives written notice of such election to Tenant,
     and in the event Tenant terminates the Lease in the manner set forth above,
     then such Successor shall pay to Tenant, within thirty (30) days after such
     Successor receives an invoice from Tenant, an amount equal to the
     difference of: (i) the unamortized amount of any Tenant Improvement Costs
     based on straight line amortization over the Initial Term (as defined in
     the Lease) as of the date of termination, less (ii) the amount of any
     insurance proceeds or condemnation award paid or payable to Tenant with
     respect to the value of Tenant Improvements. The right of Successor to
     elect not to repair, replace, rebuild or restore the Premises, the Leased
     Premises, or any portion of them in the even of damage by fire or other
     casualty or in the event of partial condemnation shall not apply if such
     fire, other casualty or partial condemnation impacts five percent (5%) or
     less (measured by based on total square footage) of the Leased Premises,
     and impacts five percent (5%) or less (measured by the total square
     footage) of the Premises.

     7.   NOTICE OF DEFAULT; RIGHT TO CURE.

          7.1  In the event Tenant gives written notice to Landlord of a breach
of its obligations under the Lease, Tenant shall forthwith furnish a copy of
such notice to Trustee.

          7.2  In the event that Landlord receives notice from Tenant of a
breach by Landlord of any of its monetary obligations under the Lease, and such
breach is not cured by

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        5
<Page>

Landlord pursuant to the provisions of the Lease, Tenant shall not terminate the
Lease in connection with such default except as provided in this SECTION 7.2
(but shall be entitled to avail itself of all other remedies provided to Tenant
under the Lease), and Tenant shall, in addition to the notice provided in
SECTION 7.1 hereof, give notice of the monetary failure to cure on the part of
Landlord to Trustee at the expiration of the period within which Landlord may
cure as set forth in the Lease. Then, Trustee may proceed to cure any such
failure within sixty (60) days after receipt of the additional notice herein set
forth. If Trustee fails to cure such monetary default within such sixty (60) day
period, Tenant shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies for such
monetary default as provided in the Lease (including, but not limited to, the
right to terminate the Lease), without the necessity to provide any further
notice or cure period whatsoever.

          7.3  In the event that Landlord receives notice from Tenant of a
non-monetary breach by Landlord of any of its obligations under the Lease, and
such breach is not cured by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of the Lease,
Tenant shall not terminate the Lease in connection with such default except as
provided in this SECTION 7.3 (but shall be entitled to avail itself of all other
remedies provided to Tenant under the Lease), and Tenant shall, in addition to
the notice provided in SECTION 7.1 hereof, give notice of the failure to cure on
the part of Landlord to Trustee at the expiration of the period within which
Landlord may cure as set forth in the Lease ("TENANT'S NOTICE"). Thereafter,
Trustee may, by providing written notice of its intention to cure any such
non-monetary default to Tenant within sixty (60) days after receipt of the
Tenant's Notice, proceed to cure any such non-monetary default. In the event
Trustee elects to proceed to cure such non-monetary default, Trustee shall
complete such cure within sixty (60) days after the date of receipt of the
Tenant's Notice; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if: (a) the non-monetary default cannot
reasonably be cured within such sixty (60) day period; (b) Trustee materially
commences cure of such non-monetary default within such sixty (60) day period;
and (c) after commencing efforts to cure such non-monetary default, diligently
and in good faith pursues same to completion, then such sixty (60) day period
shall be extended to a reasonable amount of time (not to exceed one hundred
(100) total days from the Tenant's Notice) to cure such non-monetary default;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, if:

               (a)  after exercising Trustee's commercially reasonable efforts
     to cure such default, including, but not limited to, by seeking appointment
     of a receiver, exercising legal self-help rights, or obtaining access to
     the property by other commercially reasonable means to cure such default,
     as a result of the nature of such default, such default is not reasonably
     susceptible of being cured without Trustee obtaining possession of the
     Project by institution of a foreclosure proceeding (any such default, a
     "POSSESSORY DEFAULTS");

               (b)  unless it is enjoined or stayed, Trustee takes steps to
     acquire or sell Landlord's interest in the Premises by foreclosure or other
     appropriate means and diligently prosecutes the same to completion; and

               (c)  before the expiration of such sixty (60) day period, Trustee
     provides notice of such Possessory Default to Tenant, an explanation of the
     efforts undertaken by Trustee to cure such default without first
     instituting foreclosure proceedings and the reasons such efforts failed;

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        6
<Page>

then such sixty (60) day cure period shall be extended for such reasonable
amount of time (not to exceed eleven (11) total months from the Tenant's Notice)
to obtain possession of the Premises and cure such non-monetary default. If
Trustee fails to cure such non-monetary default within such sixty (60) day
period (as extended as permitted in the previous sentence, if applicable),
Tenant shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies for such
non-monetary default as provided herein (including, but not limited to,
termination of the Lease), without the necessity to provide any further notice
or cure period whatsoever. Trustee shall not be required to continue such
foreclosure proceeding after the default has been cured, and if the default
shall be cured and Trustee shall discontinue such foreclosure proceedings, the
Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if Landlord had timely cured
the default under the Lease.

     Except as expressly provided in SECTION 7.3 with respect to extension of
the cure periods, the commencement and/or prosecution of foreclosure proceedings
shall not be deemed to abate, toll, extend or otherwise modify the cure rights
of Trustee set forth in this SECTION 7.

     8.   ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS. If Landlord defaults in its performance of the
terms of the Financing Documents, Tenant agrees to recognize the assignment of
leases and rents made by Landlord to Trustee under the Deed of Trust and shall
pay to Trustee, as assignee, from the time Trustee gives Tenant notice that
Landlord is in default under the terms of the Financing Documents, the rents
under the Lease, but only those rents that are due or that become due under the
terms of the Lease after notice by Trustee. Payments of rents to Trustee by
Tenant under the assignment of leases and rents and Landlord's default shall
continue until the first of the following occurs:

               (a)  No further rent is due or payable under the Lease;

               (b)  Trustee gives Tenant notice that Landlord's default under
     the Financing Documents has been cured and instructs Tenant that the rents
     shall thereafter be payable to Landlord; or

               (c)  The lien of the Deed of Trust has been foreclosed and the
     purchaser at the foreclosure sale (whether Trustee or a Transferee) gives
     Tenant notice of the foreclosure sale. On giving notice, the purchaser
     shall succeed to Landlord's interests under the Lease, after which time the
     rents and other benefits due Landlord under the Lease shall be payable to
     the purchaser as the owner of the Premises.

     9.  TENANT'S RELIANCE. When complying with the provisions of SECTION 8,
Tenant shall be entitled to rely on the notices given by Trustee under SECTION
8, and Landlord and Trustee each, jointly and severally agree to release,
relieve, protect and indemnify Tenant from and against any and all loss, claim,
damage, or liability (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising out of
Tenant's compliance with such notice.

     Tenant shall be entitled to full credit under the Lease for any rents paid
to Trustee in accordance with SECTION 8 to the same extent as if such rents were
paid directly to Landlord. Any dispute between Trustee (or Trustee's Transferee)
and Landlord as to the existence of a default by Landlord under the terms of the
Deed of Trust, the extent or nature of such default, or Trustee's right to
foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, shall be dealt with and adjusted solely

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        7
<Page>

between Trustee (or Transferee) and Landlord, and Tenant shall not be made a
party to any such dispute (unless required by law).

     10.  TRUSTEE'S STATUS. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to be
an agreement by Trustee to perform any covenant of Landlord under the Lease nor
shall it deem Trustee as Landlord under the Lease, unless and until it obtains
title to the Premises by power of sale, judicial foreclosure, or deed in lieu of
foreclosure, obtains possession of the Premises under the terms of the Financing
Documents or expressly agrees to perform such covenant in a writing duly
executed by Trustee after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Trustee exercises its rights provided in SECTION 7 hereof, Trustee shall be
subject to the obligations of Landlord to indemnify Tenant as set forth in the
Lease, but solely with respect to the activities undertaken by Trustee in order
to cure such breach.

     11.  TERMINATION OF LEASE. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement or the Lease, if the Trustee provides an Election Notice (as defined
in that certain Consent and Acknowledgement Agreement dated January 23, 2004
among Hard Rock Hotel Licensing, Inc., a Florida corporation ("HRL"), Tenant,
Issuers, Trustee, GAR, LLC, a Mississippi limited liability company, AA Capital
Equity Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and AA Capital Biloxi
Co-Investment Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "CONSENT")), and
the Premises is conveyed by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, conveyance in
lieu of foreclosure or otherwise (but the rights of the licensee under the
License Agreement and the tenant under the Memorabilia Lease shall not so
transfer), then the Lease shall automatically terminate simultaneously with the
transfer of the Premises without the necessity of any further action by either
party to such Lease, and upon any such termination the Successor shall pay to
Tenant an amount equal to the unamortized portion of the Tenant Improvement
Costs based on straight-line amortization over the Initial Term (as defined in
the Lease) as of the date of termination within thirty (30) days after such
Successor receives an invoice therefor.

     12.  SPECIAL COVENANTS. Subject to the requirements of the License
Agreement, if Trustee acquires title to the Premises, Tenant agrees that:
Trustee shall have the right at any time in connection with the sale or other
transfer of the Premises to assign the Lease or Trustee's rights under it to any
person or entity, and that Trustee, its officers, directors, shareholders,
agents, and employees shall be released from any further liability under the
Lease arising after the date of such transfer, provided that the assignee of
Trustee's interest assumes Trustee's obligations under the Lease, in writing,
from the date of such transfer.

     13.  ADDITIONAL RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS.

          13.1 For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Trustee exercises its
rights under this Agreement and the Deed of Trust to foreclose on the Premises:

               (a)  upon commencement of foreclosure proceedings by Trustee,
     Landlord hereby releases Tenant of and from any and all claims against
     Tenant and its officers, directors, shareholder, and employees, in their
     corporate and individual capacities, including, without limitation, claims
     arising under federal, state, and local laws, rules, and ordinances,
     arising from or related to this Agreement; and

                                                               EXECUTION VERSION

                                        8
<Page>

               (b)  Landlord shall remain liable for all of the obligations to
     Tenant in connection with the Premises prior to the effective date of the
     transfer of its interest in the Lease.

     14.  RESERVED.

     15.  NOTICE. All notices required by this Agreement shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given for all purposes when:

               (a)  deposited in the United States mail (by registered or
     certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid); or

               (b)  deposited with a nationally recognized overnight delivery
     service such as Federal Express or Airborne.

Each notice must be directed to the party to receive it at its address stated
