repay the outstanding Indebtedness under the Existing Loan Agreement, (iii) to
pay related transactional expenses, and (iv) thereafter for general corporate

      2.3   LIBOR LOANS.

            (a) Each request by Borrower for a LIBOR Loan shall be made pursuant

first day of the applicable Interest Period.

            (b) On the date which is two Eurodollar Business Days before the

if by telephone, promptly confirmed by telecopier).

            (c) Unless the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders
otherwise consent, no more than twenty five LIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at
any one time.

            (d) No LIBOR Loan may be requested during the continuation of a

      2.4   LETTERS OF CREDIT.

            (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at any time and from
time to time from the Effective Date through the Business Day immediately prior
to the Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letters of Credit
under the Commitment as Borrower may request by a Request for Letter of Credit;
PROVIDED that (i) giving effect to all such Letters of Credit, the Outstanding
Obligations do not exceed the then applicable Commitment, and (ii) the Aggregate
Effective Amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed
$5,000,000. Each Letter of Credit shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to
the Issuing Lender. Unless all the Lenders otherwise consent in a writing
delivered to the Administrative Agent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall
not exceed one year or extend beyond the Maturity Date.

            (b) Each Request for Letter of Credit shall be submitted to the
Issuing Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business
Days prior to the date upon which the related Letter of Credit is proposed to be
issued. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Lender
whether such Request for Letter of Credit, and the issuance of a Letter of
Credit pursuant thereto, conforms to the requirements of this Agreement. Upon
issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Lenders, of the amount and terms thereof.

            (c) Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be
deemed to have purchased at par a pro rata participation in such Letter of
Credit from the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to that Lender's Pro Rata
Share. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender's participation in
any Letter of Credit, to the extent that the Issuing Lender has not been
reimbursed by Borrower for any payment required to be made by the Issuing Lender
under any Letter of Credit, each Lender shall, pro rata according to its Pro
Rata Share, pay the purchase price for such participation to the Issuing Lender
through the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand therefor. The obligation
of each Lender to so pay the participation purchase price to the Issuing Lender
shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence
of an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such payment of the
purchase price shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower
to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by the
Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit together with interest as hereinafter
provided.

            (d) Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender through the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to any payment made by the Issuing Lender
with respect to each Letter of Credit upon demand by the Issuing Lender
therefor, together with interest on such amount from the date of any payment
made by the Issuing Lender at the Default Rate. The principal amount of any such
payment shall be used to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the payment made by it
under the Letter of Credit and, to the extent that the Lenders have not
reimbursed the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(c), the interest



                                      -30-
<Page>

amount of any such payment shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender. Each
Lender that has paid the participation purchase price to the Issuing Lender
pursuant to Section 2.4(c) shall thereupon acquire a pro rata participation, to
the extent of such payment, in the claim of the Issuing Lender against Borrower
for reimbursement of principal and interest under this Section 2.4(d) and shall
share, in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any principal payment
made by Borrower with respect to such claim and in any interest payment made by
Borrower with respect to such claim.

            (e) Borrower may, pursuant to a Request for Loan, request that
Advances be made pursuant to Section 2.1(a) to provide funds for the payment
required by Section 2.4(d) and, for this purpose, the conditions precedent set
forth in Article 8 shall not apply. The proceeds of such Advances shall be paid
directly to the Issuing Lender to reimburse it for the payment made by it under
the Letter of Credit.

            (f) If Borrower fails to make the payment required by Section 2.4(d)
on a timely basis then, in lieu of the payment of the participation purchase
price to the Issuing Lender under Section 2.4(c), the Issuing Lender may (but is
not required to), without notice to or the consent of Borrower, instruct the
Administrative Agent to cause Advances to be made by the Lenders under their Pro
Rata Shares of the Commitment in an aggregate amount equal to the amount paid by
the Issuing Lender with respect to that Letter of Credit and, for this purpose,
the conditions precedent set forth in Article 8 shall not apply. The proceeds of
such Advances shall be paid directly to the Issuing Lender to reimburse it for
the payment made by it under the Letter of Credit.

            (g) The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment,
renewal, or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all
respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

            (h) The obligation of Borrower to pay to the Issuing Lender the
amount of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit
shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, subject only to performance
by the Issuing Lender of its obligations to Borrower under Uniform Commercial
Code Section 5109. Without limiting the foregoing, the obligations of Borrower
to the Issuing Lender shall not be affected by any of the following
circumstances:

                  (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Letter of
      Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating
      thereto;

                  (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure
      from the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or
      instrument relating thereto;

                  (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other
      rights which Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Lender, the
      Administrative Agent


                                      -31-
<Page>

      or any Lender, any beneficiary of the Letter of Credit (or any persons or
      entities for whom any such beneficiary may be acting) or any other Person,
      whether in connection with the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any
      other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated
      transactions;

                  (iv) any demand, statement, or any other document presented
      under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or
      insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
      inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared
      to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

                  (v) payment by the Issuing Lender in good faith under the
      Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying
      document which does not strictly comply with the terms of the Letter of
      Credit;

                  (vi) the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition,
      packing, value or delivery of any Property purported to be represented by
      documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or any
      difference between any such Property and the character, quality, quantity,
      condition, or value of such Property as described in such documents;

                  (vii) the time, place, manner, order or contents of shipments
      or deliveries of Property as described in documents presented in
      connection with any Letter of Credit or the existence, nature and extent
      of any insurance relative thereto;

                  (viii) the solvency or financial responsibility of any party
      issuing any documents in connection with a Letter of Credit;

                  (ix) any failure or delay in notice of shipments or arrival of
      any Property;

                  (x) any error in the transmission of any message relating to a
      Letter of Credit not caused by the Issuing Lender, or any delay or
      interruption in any such message;

                  (xi) any error, neglect or default of any correspondent of the
      Issuing Lender in connection with a Letter of Credit (but without
      prejudice to any claim by Borrower against such correspondent);

                  (xii) any consequence arising from acts of God, war,
      insurrection, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency
      conditions or other causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender;


                                      -32-
<Page>

                  (xiii) so long as the Issuing Lender in good faith determines
      that the contract or document appears to comply with the terms of the
      Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any
      contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the Issuing
      Lender in connection with a Letter of Credit; and

                  (xiv) where the Issuing Lender has acted in good faith and
      observed general business usage, any other circumstances whatsoever.

            (i) The Issuing Lender shall be entitled to the protection accorded
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 10, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

            (j) The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as
published in its most current version by the International Chamber of Commerce,
shall be deemed a part of this Section and shall apply to all Letters of Credit
to the extent not inconsistent with applicable Law.

      2.5   VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF COMMITMENT. Borrower shall have the right, at
any time and from time to time, without penalty or charge, upon at least three
Business Days' prior written notice by Borrower to the Administrative Agent, to
voluntarily reduce, permanently and irrevocably, in amounts which are integral
multiples of $500,000, or to terminate, all or a portion of the then undisbursed
portion of the Commitment. Borrower shall also have the right, at any time and
from time to time, without penalty or charge, upon notice on the same Business
Day by Borrower to the Administrative Agent, to voluntarily prepay any Base Rate
Advances. Borrower shall also have the right, at any time and from time to time,
without penalty or charge, upon at least three business days' prior notice by
Borrower to the Administrative Agent, to voluntarily prepay any LIBOR Advances.
Each voluntary reduction shall be applied first to the amount of the Commitment
scheduled to be required to be reduced on the Maturity Date and then to
Reduction Amounts in the inverse order of their occurrence. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any reduction or termination of the
Commitment under this Section, and of any changes to the Reduction Amounts.

      2.6   SCHEDULED REDUCTIONS OF COMMITMENT. The Commitment shall
automatically and permanently reduce on each Reduction Date by the related
Reduction Amount.

      2.7   MANDATORY REDUCTIONS OF COMMITMENT.

            (a) The Commitment shall permanently reduce in the amount of any
      mandatory prepayments required pursuant to Section 3.1(f).


            (b) In the event that Borrower hereafter makes any Investment of the
      type described in Section 6.16(c), the Commitment shall also permanently
      reduce upon the date of the making of any subsequent Loan or issuance of
      any subsequent Letter of


                                      -33-
<Page>

      Credit hereunder, in each case in the then outstanding principal amount of
      such Investment.

            (c) Any reduction of the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.7
      shall be in addition to the scheduled reductions described in Section 2.6.

      2.8   OPTIONAL INCREASES TO THE COMMITMENT.

            (a) PROVIDED that no Default or Event of Default then exists,
      Borrower may at any time request in writing that the then effective
      Commitment be increased (on the same terms and conditions set forth
      herein) to an amount which is not greater than $50,000,000 MINUS the
      amount of any reductions to the Commitment which have then occurred
      pursuant to Sections 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7, in accordance with the provisions of
      this Section, PROVIDED that any such increase shall, unless all of the
      Lenders otherwise consent, be requested prior to the date which is 18
      months following the Effective Date. Any request under this Section shall
      be submitted by Borrower to the Administrative Agent not less than thirty
      days prior to the proposed increase, specify the proposed effective date
      and amount of such increase and be accompanied by (i) a Certificate of a
      Responsible Official, signed by a Senior Officer of Borrower, stating that
      no Default or Event of Default exists as of the date of the request or
      will result from the requested increase, (ii) amendments, in form and
      substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, to the Deeds of Trust,
      increasing the amount of the obligations secured thereby to the amount of
      the Commitment (as so increased), together with endorsements to the policy
      of title insurance held by the Administrative Agent in relation thereto
      reflecting a similar increase, and (iii) a written consent to the increase
      in the amount of the Commitment executed by each Guarantor. Borrower may
      also specify any fees offered to those Lenders which agree to an increase
      in the amount of their Pro Rata Shares (which fees may be variable based
      upon the amount which any such Lender is willing to assume as an increase
      to the amount of its Pro Rata Share). The consent of the Lenders, as such,
      shall not be required for an increase in the amount of the Commitment
      pursuant to this Section.

            (b) Each Lender may approve or reject a request for an increase in
      the amount of the Commitment in its sole and absolute discretion and,
      absent an affirmative written response within fifteen days after receipt
      of such request, shall be deemed to have rejected the request. The
      rejection of such a request by any number of Lenders shall not affect
      Borrower's right to increase the Commitment pursuant to this Section.

            (c) In responding to a request under this Section, each Lender which
      is willing to increase the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the increased
      Commitment shall specify the amount of the proposed increase which it is
      willing to assume. Each consenting Lender shall be entitled to participate
      ratably (based on its Pro Rata Share before such increase) in any
      resulting increase in the Commitment, subject to the right


                                      -34-
<Page>

      of the Administrative Agent to adjust allocations of the increased
      Commitment so as to result in the amounts of the Pro Rata Shares of the
      Lenders being in integral multiples of $250,000.

            (d) If the aggregate principal amount offered to be assumed by the
      consenting Lenders is less than the amount requested, Borrower may (i)
      reject the proposed increase in its entirety, (ii) accept the offered
      amounts or (iii) designate new lenders who qualify as Eligible Assignees
      and which are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as
      additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with clause (e) of this Section
      (each, a "New Lender"), which New Lenders may assume the amount of the
      increase in the Commitment that has not been assumed by the consenting
      Lenders.

            (e) Each New Lender designated by Borrower and reasonably acceptable
      to the Administrative Agent shall become an additional party hereto as a
      New Lender concurrently with the effectiveness of the proposed increase in
      the Commitment upon its execution of an instrument of joinder to this
      Agreement which is in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative
      Agent and which, in any event, contains the representations, warranties,
      indemnities and other protections afforded to the Administrative Agent and
      the other Lenders which would be granted or made by an Eligible Assignee
      by means of the execution of an Assignment Agreement.

            (f) Subject to the foregoing, any increase to the Commitment
      requested under this Section shall be effective as of the date proposed by
      Borrower shall be in the principal amount equal to (i) the amount which
      consenting Lenders are willing to assume as increases to the amount of
      their Pro Rata Share PLUS (ii) the amount offered by any New Lenders. Upon
      the effectiveness of any such increase, Borrower and the Co-Borrowers
      shall issue replacement Notes to each affected Lender, and the percentage
      Pro Rata Shares of each Lender will be adjusted to give effect to the
      increase in the Commitment.

      2.9   ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S RIGHT TO ASSUME FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR ADVANCES.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender no later
than the Business Day prior to the funding by the Administrative Agent of any
Loan that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative
Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of that Loan, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative
Agent on the date of the Loan and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon
such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If the
Administrative Agent has made funds available to Borrower based on such
assumption and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the
Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender
does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's
demand therefor, the Administrative Agent promptly shall notify Borrower and
Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover from such


                                      -35-
<Page>

Lender interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the
date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the
Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Federal Funds Rate
for the first two days following a demand by the Administrative Agent and (b)
thereafter, the rate of interest then payable by Borrower with respect to Base
Rate Advances. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to fulfill its share of the Commitment or to prejudice any rights
which the Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a
result of any default by such Lender hereunder.


                                      -36-

                                PAYMENTS AND FEES

      3.1   PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.

            (a) Interest shall be payable on the outstanding daily unpaid
principal amount of each Advance from the date thereof until payment in full is
made and shall accrue and be payable at the rates set forth or provided for
herein before and after default, before and after maturity, before and after
judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law, with interest on overdue interest at the Default Rate to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

            (b) Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan on each Quarterly
Payment Date, and on the date of any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section
3.1(f) or Section 3.1(g), shall be due and payable on that day. EXCEPT as
otherwise provided in Section 3.8, the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate
Loan shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Base Rate
PLUS the Base Rate Margin. Each change in the interest rate under this Section
3.1(b) due to a change in the Base Rate shall take effect simultaneously with
the corresponding change in the Base Rate.

            (c) Interest accrued on each LIBOR Loan which is for a term of three
months or less shall be due and payable on the last day of the related Interest
Period. Interest accrued on each other LIBOR Loan shall be due and payable on
the date which is three months after the date such LIBOR Loan was made and on
the last day of the related Interest Period. EXCEPT as otherwise provided in
Sections 3.1(d) and 3.8, the unpaid principal amount of any LIBOR Loan shall
bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR for that LIBOR Loan PLUS
the LIBOR Margin.

            (d) During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the
Requisite Lenders may determine that any or all then outstanding LIBOR Loans
shall be converted to Base Rate Loans. Such conversion shall be effective upon
notice to Borrower from the Requisite Lenders (or from the Administrative Agent
on behalf of the Requisite Lenders) and shall continue so long as such Default
or Event of Default continues to exist.

            (e)   If not sooner paid, the principal Indebtedness evidenced by
the Notes shall be payable as follows:

                  (i) the principal amount of each LIBOR Loan shall be payable
      on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan;

                  (ii) the amount, if any, by which the Outstanding Obligations
      at any time exceed the Commitment shall be payable immediately; and


                                      -37-
<Page>

                  (iii) the principal Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall
      in any event be payable on the Maturity Date.

            (f) Concurrently with the receipt by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries of any Net Cash Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay the Notes by an
amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.

            (g) The Notes may, at any time and from time to time, voluntarily be
paid or prepaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty, EXCEPT that with
respect to any voluntary prepayment under this Section, (i) any partial
prepayment shall be not less than $500,000 and in integral multiples of
$100,000, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice of
any prepayment by 10:00 a.m. on the Business Day of such prepayment (which must
be a Business Day) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, and, in the case of a LIBOR
Loan, three Eurodollar Market Days before the date of prepayment, which notice
shall identify the date and amount of the prepayment and the Loans being
prepaid, (iii) each prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by payment of
interest accrued to the date of payment on the amount of principal paid and (iv)
any payment or prepayment of all or any part of any LIBOR Loan on a day other
than the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be subject to Section
3.7(d).

      3.2   UPFRONT FEE. On the Effective Date, Borrower shall pay an upfront
fee to the Administrative Agent in an amount heretofore agreed upon in a letter
agreement with the Administrative Agent.

      3.3   ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY FEES. Pursuant to a letter agreement of even
date herewith with the Administrative Agent, Borrower shall pay administrative
agency fees to the Administrative Agent on the dates and in the amounts
heretofore agreed upon, and shall also pay to the Administrative Agent a
periodic fee to reimburse it for the expenses of the Construction Consultant.

      3.4   COMMITMENT FEES. From the Effective Date, Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable accounts of the Lenders according to their
Pro Rata Shares, an unused commitment fee equal to the then applicable
Commitment Fee Rate per annum TIMES the average daily amount by which (a) the
Commitment exceeds (b) the Outstanding Obligations. Unused commitment fees shall
be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, on the date of
any termination of the Commitment, and on the Maturity Date.

      3.5   LETTER OF CREDIT FEES. With respect to each Letter of Credit,
Borrower shall pay the following fees:

            (a) concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, a
letter of credit issuance fee to the Issuing Lender for the sole account of the
Issuing Lender, in an amount set forth in a letter agreement between Borrower
and the Issuing Lender;


                                      -38-
<Page>

            (b) quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment date, and upon
any termination of the Commitment, a letter of credit fee to the Administrative
Agent (for the ratable account of the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata
Shares) in an amount equal to the applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate per annum
as of the date of such issuance TIMES the face amount of such Letter of Credit
for the period each Letter of Credit is outstanding during the calendar quarter
then ended; and

            (c) concurrently with each issuance, negotiation, drawing or
amendment of each Letter of Credit, to the Issuing Lender for the sole account
of the Issuing Lender, issuance, negotiation, drawing and amendment fees in the
amounts set forth from time to time as the Issuing Lender's customary schedule
of fees for such services.

      3.6   INCREASED COMMITMENT COSTS. If any Lender shall determine in good
faith that the introduction after the Effective Date of any applicable law,
rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein
or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any central
bank or other Governmental Agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its LIBOR Office) or
any corporation controlling the Lender, with any request, guideline or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
central bank or other authority, affects or would affect the amount of capital
required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender's or such
corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender's
desired return on capital) determines in good faith that the amount of such
capital is increased, or the rate of return on capital is reduced, as a
consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such
Lender, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified in
good faith by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender in light of such circumstances, to the extent reasonably allocable to
such obligations under this Agreement. Each Lender's determination of such
amounts shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

      3.7   LIBOR COSTS AND RELATED MATTERS.

            (a) If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any
Special LIBOR Circumstance:

                  (1) shall subject any Lender or its LIBOR Office to any tax,
      duty or other charge or cost with respect to any LIBOR Advance, any of its
      Notes evidencing LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Advances, or
      shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender attributable
      to the principal of or interest on any LIBOR Advance or any other amounts
      due under this Agreement in respect of any LIBOR Advance, any of its Notes
      evidencing LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Advances,
      EXCLUDING, in the case of each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each
      Eligible Assignee, and any Affiliate or LIBOR Office thereof, (i) taxes


                                      -39-
<Page>

      imposed on or measured in whole or in part by its overall net income,
      gross income or gross receipts or capital and franchise taxes imposed on
      it, by (A) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which it
      is organized or maintains its principal office or LIBOR Office or (B) any
      jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which it is "doing
      business" (unless it would not be doing business in such jurisdiction (or
      political subdivision thereof) absent the transactions contemplated
      hereby), (ii) any withholding taxes or other taxes based on gross income
      imposed by the United States of America (other than withholding taxes and
      taxes based on gross income resulting solely from or attributable to any
      change in any law, rule or regulation or any change in the interpretation
      or administration of any law, rule or regulation by any Governmental
      Agency) or (iii) any withholding taxes or other taxes based on gross
      income imposed by the United States of America for any period with respect
      to which it has failed to provide Borrower with the appropriate form or
      forms required by Section 11.21, to the extent such forms are then
      required by applicable Laws;

                  (2) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve not
      applicable or deemed applicable on the date hereof (INCLUDING, without
      limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
      Reserve System, BUT EXCLUDING the Reserve Percentage taken into account in
      calculating the LIBOR), special deposit, capital or similar requirements
      against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended
      by, any Lender or its LIBOR Office; or

                  (3) shall impose on any Lender or its LIBOR Office or the
      Designated LIBOR Market any other condition affecting any LIBOR Advance,
      any of its Notes evidencing LIBOR Loans, its obligation to make LIBOR
      Advances or this Agreement, or shall otherwise affect any of the same;

      and the result of any of the foregoing, as determined in good faith by
      such Lender, increases the cost to such Lender or its LIBOR Office of
      making or maintaining any LIBOR Advance or in respect of any LIBOR
      Advance, any of its Notes evidencing LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make
      LIBOR Advances or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by
      such Lender or its LIBOR Office with respect to any LIBOR Advance, any of
      its Notes evidencing LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Advances
      (assuming such Lender's LIBOR Office had funded 100% of its LIBOR Advance
      in the Designated LIBOR Market), then, within five Business Days after
      demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), Borrower
      shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
      compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction (determined as
      though such Lender's LIBOR Office had funded 100% of its LIBOR Advance in
      the Designated LIBOR Market). Borrower hereby indemnifies each Lender
      against, and agrees to hold each Lender harmless from and reimburse such
      Lender within ten (10) Business Days after demand for (without
      duplication) all costs, expenses, claims, penalties, liabilities, losses,
      reasonable legal fees and damages incurred or sustained by each Lender in
      connection with this Agreement, or any of the rights, obligations or
      transactions


                                      -40-
<Page>

      provided for or contemplated herein, as a direct result of the existence
      or occurrence of any Special LIBOR Circumstance. A statement of any Lender
      claiming compensation under this subsection and setting forth in
      reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it
      hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each
      Lender agrees to promptly notify Borrower of any event of which it has
      actual knowledge, occurring after the Effective Date, which will entitle
      such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section, and agrees to
      designate a different LIBOR Office if such designation will avoid the need
      for or reduce the amount of such compensation and will not, in the good
      faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to
      such Lender. If any Lender claims compensation under this Section,
      Borrower may at any time, upon at least four (4) Eurodollar Market Days'
      prior notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender and upon payment
      in full of the amounts provided for in this Section through the date of
      such payment PLUS any prepayment fee required by Section 3.7(d), pay in
      full the affected LIBOR Advances of such Lender or request that such LIBOR
      Advances be converted to Base Rate Advances.

            (b) If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any
Special LIBOR Circumstance shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Lender
or its LIBOR Office to make, maintain or fund its portion of any LIBOR Loan, or
materially restrict the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take
deposits of, Dollars in the Designated LIBOR Market, or to determine or charge
interest rates based upon the LIBOR, and such Lender shall so notify the
Administrative Agent, and if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that
the Special LIBOR Circumstances have broad applicability to Lenders in the
market for syndicated loans of the general type described in this Agreement,
then the affected Lender's obligation to make LIBOR Advances shall be suspended
for the duration of such illegality or impossibility and the Administrative
Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to the other Lenders and Borrower.
Upon receipt of such notice, the outstanding principal amount of such Lender's
LIBOR Advances, together with accrued interest thereon, automatically shall be
converted to Base Rate Advances with Interest Periods corresponding to the LIBOR
Loans of which such LIBOR Advances were a part on either (1) the last day of the
Interest Period(s) applicable to such LIBOR Advances if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain and fund such LIBOR Advances to such day(s) or (2)
immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such
LIBOR Advances to such day(s), PROVIDED that in such event the conversion shall
not be subject to payment of a prepayment fee under Section 3.7(d). Each Lender
agrees to promptly notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual
knowledge, occurring after the Effective Date, which will cause that Lender to
notify the Administrative Agent under this Section 3.7(b), and agrees to
designate a different LIBOR Office if such designation will avoid the need for
such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise
be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. In the event that any Lender is
unable, for the reasons set forth above, to make, maintain or fund its portion
of any LIBOR Loan, such Lender shall fund such amount as a Base Rate Advance for
the same period of time, and such amount shall be treated in all respects as a
Base Rate Advance. Any Lender whose obligation to make LIBOR Advances


                                      -41-
<Page>

has been suspended under this Section 3.7(b) shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and Borrower of the cessation of the Special LIBOR
Circumstance which gave rise to such suspension.

            (c) If, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Loan:

                  (1) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that, by
      reason of circumstances affecting the Designated LIBOR Market generally
      that are beyond the reasonable control of the Lenders, deposits in Dollars
      (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to any Lender in the
      Designated LIBOR Market for the applicable Interest Period; or

                  (2) the Requisite Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that
      the LIBOR as determined by the Administrative Agent (i) does not represent
      the effective pricing to such Lenders for deposits in Dollars in the
      Designated LIBOR Market in the relevant amount for the applicable Interest
      Period, or (ii) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
      Lenders of making the applicable LIBOR Advances;

      then the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to
      Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent
      notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no
      longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make any future LIBOR
      Advances shall be suspended. If at the time of such notice there is then
      pending a Request for Loan that specifies a LIBOR Loan, such Request for
      Loan shall be deemed to specify a Base Rate Loan.

            (d) Upon payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Advance (OTHER THAN as
the result of a conversion required under Section 3.7(b)), on a day other than
the last day in the applicable Interest Period (whether voluntarily,
involuntarily, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), or upon the failure of
Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of a Lender to make an Advance) to
borrow on the date or in the amount specified for a LIBOR Loan in any Request
for Loan, Borrower shall pay to the appropriate Lender within ten (10) Business
Days after demand a prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee, as the case may be
(determined as though 100% of the LIBOR Advance had been funded in the
Designated LIBOR Market) equal to the SUM of:

                  (1) the principal amount of the LIBOR Advance prepaid or not
      borrowed, as the case may be, TIMES the number of days between the date of
      prepayment or failure to borrow, as applicable, and the last day in the
      applicable Interest Period, DIVIDED BY 360, TIMES the applicable Interest
      Differential (PROVIDED that the product of the foregoing formula must be a
      positive number); PLUS

                  (2) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
      Lender reasonably attributable to such payment, prepayment or failure to
      borrow.


                                      -42-
<Page>

      Each Lender's determination of the amount of any prepayment fee payable
      under this Section 3.7(d) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
      error.

      3.8   LATE PAYMENTS. If any Event of Default occurs and remains
continuing, the Loans shall thereafter bear interest, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Laws at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all
times equal to 2% in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable. Accrued
and unpaid interest on past due amounts (INCLUDING, without limitation, interest
on past due interest) shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each
calendar month, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

      3.9   COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. Computation of interest on Base
Rate Loans and all fees under this Agreement shall be calculated on the basis of
a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days
elapsed; computation of interest on LIBOR Loans shall be calculated on the basis
of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Borrower
acknowledges that such latter calculation method will result in a higher yield
to the Lenders than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall
accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made; interest shall not
accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such
portion is paid. Any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made
shall bear interest for one day.

      3.10  NON-BUSINESS DAYS. If any payment to be made by Borrower or any
other Obligor under any Loan Document shall come due on a day other than a
Business Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding
Business Day and the extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest
and fees.

      3.11  MANNER AND TREATMENT OF PAYMENTS.

            (a) Each payment hereunder or on the Notes or under any other Loan
Document shall be made to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative
Agent's Office, for the account of each of the Lenders or the Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, in immediately available funds not later than 12:00
p.m. on the day of payment (which must be a Business Day). All payments received
after 12:00 p.m. on any Business Day, shall be deemed received on the next
succeeding Business Day. The amount of all payments received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender shall be immediately paid by
the Administrative Agent to the applicable Lender in immediately available funds
and, if such payment was received by the Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. on a
Business Day and not so made available to the account of a Lender on that
Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall reimburse that Lender for the cost
to such Lender of funding the amount of such payment at the Federal Funds Rate.
All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America.

            (b) Each payment or prepayment on account of any Loan shall be
applied pro rata according to the outstanding Advances made by each Lender
comprising such Loan.


                                      -43-
<Page>

            (c) Each Lender shall use its best efforts to keep a record of
Advances made by it and payments received by it with respect to each of its
Notes and, subject to Section 10.6(g), such record shall, as against Borrower,
be presumptive evidence of the amounts owing. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, no Lender shall be liable to any Obligor for any failure to keep such
a record.

            (d) Each payment of any amount payable by Borrower or any other
Obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and
clear of, and without reduction by reason of, any taxes, assessments or other
charges imposed by any Governmental Agency, central bank or comparable
authority, EXCLUDING, in the case of each Lender, the Administrative Agent and
each Eligible Assignee, and any Affiliate or LIBOR Office thereof, (i) taxes
imposed on or measured in whole or in part by its overall net income, gross
income or gross receipts or capital and franchise taxes imposed on it, (ii) any
withholding taxes or other taxes based on gross income imposed by the United
States of America (other than withholding taxes and taxes based on gross income
resulting solely from or attributable to any change in any law, rule or
regulation or any change in the interpretation or administration of any law,
rule or regulation by any Governmental Agency) or (iii) any withholding taxes or
other taxes based on gross income imposed by the United States of America for
any period with respect to which it has failed to provide Borrower with the
appropriate form or forms required by Section 11.21, to the extent such forms
are then required by applicable Laws (all such non-excluded taxes, assessments
or other charges being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). To the extent that
Borrower is obligated by applicable Laws to make any deduction or withholding on
account of Taxes from any amount payable to any Lender under this Agreement,
Borrower shall (i) make such deduction or withholding and pay the same to the
relevant Governmental Agency and (ii) pay such additional amount to that Lender
as is necessary to result in that Lender's receiving a net after-Tax amount
equal to the amount to which that Lender would have been entitled under this
Agreement absent such deduction or withholding. If and when receipt of such
payment results in an excess payment or credit to that Lender on account of such
Taxes, that Lender shall promptly refund such excess to Borrower.

      3.12 FUNDING SOURCES. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to
obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan or Advance in any
particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that
it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan or Advance in any
particular place or manner.

      3.13 FAILURE TO CHARGE NOT SUBSEQUENT WAIVER. Any decision by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender not to require payment of any interest
(INCLUDING interest arising under Section 3.8), fee, cost or other amount
payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate any amount payable by a
particular method, on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver
of the Administrative Agent's or such Lender's right to require full payment of
any interest (INCLUDING interest arising under Section 3.8), fee, cost or other
amount payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate an amount payable by
another method that is not inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or
subsequent occasion.


                                      -44-
<Page>

      3.14 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S RIGHT TO ASSUME PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE BY
BORROWER. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is due
that Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, the Administrative Agent
may, in its discretion, assume that Borrower has remitted such payment when so
due and the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon
such assumption, make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount
equal to such Lender's share of such assumed payment. If Borrower has not in
fact remitted such payment to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall
forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed
payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect
of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the
Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the
Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate.

      3.15 FEE DETERMINATION DETAIL. The Administrative Agent and each Lender
shall provide reasonable detail to Borrower regarding the manner in which the
amount of any payment of fees or costs to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, or that Lender, under Article 3 has been determined, concurrently with
demand for such payment.

      3.16 SURVIVAL. All of Borrower's obligations under Sections 3.5, 3.6 and
11.22 shall survive for ninety days following the date on which the Commitment
is terminated, and all Loans hereunder are fully paid.

                                    Article 4
                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

            Borrower represents and warrants to the Creditors that:

      4.1   EXISTENCE AND QUALIFICATION; POWER; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Borrower
is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the
Laws of Delaware (or, in the event any assignment of the type described in the
second sentence of Section 11.8(a) is made, is a limited liability company duly
formed, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction
of its formation). As of the Effective Date, Sportsystems has the ownership
interests in Borrower described in Schedule 4.1, is duly formed and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdictions of formation. As of the Effective
Date, Sportsystems is the wholly-owned Subsidiary of Delaware North Companies,
Inc. Borrower and each other Obligor is duly qualified or registered to transact
business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the conduct
of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Properties makes such
qualification or registration necessary, EXCEPT where the failure so to qualify
or register and to be in good standing may not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Borrower and each other Obligor has all requisite
corporate or other organizational power and authority to conduct its business,
to own and lease its Properties and to execute and deliver each Loan Document to
which it is a party and to perform its Obligations. All outstanding shares of
the capital stock of Borrower and each other Obligor are duly authorized and
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and no holder thereof has any
enforceable right of rescission under any applicable state or federal securities
Laws. Borrower and each Subsidiary is in compliance with all Laws and other
legal requirements applicable to its business, has obtained all authorizations,
consents, approvals, orders, licenses and permits from, and has accomplished all
filings, registrations and qualifications with, or obtained exemptions from any
of the foregoing from, any Governmental Agency that are necessary for the
transaction of its business, EXCEPT where the failure so to comply, file,
register, qualify or obtain exemptions may not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

      4.2   AUTHORITY; COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER AGREEMENTS AND INSTRUMENTS AND
GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan
Documents by Borrower and each Obligor, have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action, and do not and will not:

            (a) Require any consent or approval not heretofore obtained of any
director, stockholder, security holder or (in the case of any Creditor except
where the failure to obtain any such creditor's consent may not reasonably be
expected to have any Material Adverse Effect) any creditor of such Obligor;

            (b) Violate or conflict with any provision of such Obligor's
articles of incorporation or bylaws;


                                      -46-
<Page>

            (c) Except to the extent contemplated by the Loan Documents, result
in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien or Right of Others upon or
with respect to any Property now owned or leased or hereafter acquired by such
Obligor;

            (d) Violate any Requirement of Law applicable to such Obligor, in
any material respect, or in any event require any consent of the West Virginia
Lottery Commission, West Virginia Racing Commission or any other Regulatory
Board not heretofore obtained;

            (e) Result in a breach of or constitute a default under, or cause or
permit the acceleration of any obligation owed under, any indenture or loan or
credit agreement or any other Contractual Obligation involving Property or
obligations in excess of $1,000,000 to which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
is a party or by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its
Property is bound or affected;

and neither Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries nor any other Obligor is in
violation of, or default under, any Requirement of Law or Contractual
Obligation, or any indenture, loan or credit agreement described in Section
4.2(e), in any respect that may reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

      4.3   NO GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS REQUIRED. EXCEPT as set forth in Schedule
4.3 or previously obtained or made, no material authorization, consent,
approval, order, license or permit from, or material filing, registration or
qualification with, any Governmental Agency is or will be required to authorize
or permit under applicable Laws the execution, delivery and performance by
Borrower, any other Obligor of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. All
authorizations from, or filings with, any Governmental Agency described in
Schedule 4.3 will be accomplished as of the Effective Date or such other date as
is specified in Schedule 4.3.

      4.4   SUBSIDIARIES. As of the Effective Date, Borrower does not have any
Subsidiaries which are not described on Schedule 4.4 and Borrower does not own
any capital stock, equity interest or debt security which is convertible, or
exchangeable, for capital stock or equity interests in any Person. Each such
Subsidiary is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing
under the Laws of its state of formation, is duly qualified or registered to
transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which
the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Properties makes
such qualification or registration necessary, EXCEPT where the failure so to
qualify or register and to be in good standing may not reasonably be expected to
have Material Adverse Effect.

      4.5   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Borrower has furnished the audited
consolidated financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the
Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2000 and the unaudited consolidated financial
statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2001, to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which financial
statements fairly present the financial condition, results of operations


                                      -47-
<Page>

and changes in financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of such
date and for such period in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles, consistently applied.

      4.6   NO MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECTS. As of the Effective Date, no
circumstance or event has occurred that constitutes a Material Adverse Effect
since December 31, 2000.

      4.7   TITLE TO PROPERTY. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have valid title to
the Property reflected in the financial statements described in Section 4.5,
other than immaterial items of Property and Property subsequently sold or
disposed of in the ordinary course of business, free and clear of all Liens and
Rights of Others, OTHER THAN Permitted Encumbrances, Permitted Rights of Others
and Liens or Rights of Others described in Schedule 6.8 or permitted by Section
6.8.

      4.8   INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns, or
possesses the right to use to the extent necessary in its respective business,
all material trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, patent rights,
computer software, licenses and other Intangible Assets which are used in the
conduct of its business as now operated, and no such Intangible Asset, to the
best knowledge of Borrower, conflicts with the valid trademark, trade name,
copyright, patent, patent right or Intangible Asset of any other Person to the
extent that such conflict may reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Each registered patent, trademark or copyright owned by Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, or as to which any of them is a licensee, is described on Schedule
4.8.

      4.9   PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANY ACT. Neither Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is a "holding company", or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding
company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or of a "subsidiary company"
of a "holding company", within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, as amended.

      4.10   LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations pending as to which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries have been
served or have received notice or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened
against or affecting Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Property of any
of them (including the Real Property) before any Governmental Agency, which may
reasonably be expected to have a monetary impact which is in excess of
$1,000,000, and no such action, suit, proceeding or investigation may reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      4.11  BINDING OBLIGATIONS. Each of the Loan Documents to which Borrower,
each other Obligor is a party will, when executed and delivered by such Person,
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person, enforceable
against such Person in accordance with its terms, EXCEPT as enforcement may be
limited by Debtor Relief Laws, Applicable Regulations or equitable principles
relating to the granting of specific performance and other equitable remedies as
a matter of judicial discretion.


                                      -48-

      4.12  NO DEFAULT. No event has occurred and is continuing that is a
Default or Event of Default.

      4.13  ERISA.

            (a) With respect to each Pension Plan:

                  (i) such Pension Plan complies in all material respects with
      ERISA and any other applicable Laws to the extent that noncompliance may
      reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

                  (ii) such Pension Plan has not incurred any "accumulated
      funding deficiency" (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA) that may
      reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

                  (iii) no "reportable event" (as defined in Section 4043 of
      ERISA) has occurred that may reasonably be expected to have a Material

            (o) The occurrence of any Change of Control; or

            (p) any event occurs which gives the holders of any Senior Unsecured

issuer to redeem or purchase, or offer to redeem or purchase, all or any portion
of the Senior Unsecured Notes which are in excess of $5,000,000, except to the
extent that Borrower is then entitled to repurchase Senior Unsecured Notes in

      9.2   REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT. Without limiting any other rights or

      terminate without notice to or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly
      waived by Borrower, EXCEPT that all the Lenders may waive the Event of
      Default or, without waiving, determine, upon terms and conditions
      satisfactory to all the Lenders, to reinstate the Commitment and make
      further Advances and issue further Letters of Credit, which determination
      shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all the Lenders; and

                  (2) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding
      Letters of Credit shall be immediately due and payable to the Issuing
      Lender without notice to or demand upon Borrower or any Co-Borrower, which

      collateral hereunder; and

                  (3) the unpaid principal of all Notes, all interest accrued
      and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents
      shall be forthwith due and payable, without protest, presentment, notice

      expressly waived by Borrower.

            (c)   Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or any of them, without

provided for in any Loan Document), may proceed (but only with the consent of
the Requisite Lenders) to protect, exercise and enforce their rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents against Borrower and any other Obligor and
such other rights and remedies as are provided by law or equity. In the event
that the Administrative Agent provides any notice to the Borrower of the

for the benefit of the West Virginia State Lottery Commission and the West
Virginia Racing Commission that it shall provide concurrent notice to the West
Virginia State Lottery Commission and the West Virginia Racing Commission
thereof (and the Borrower hereby consents to the giving of such notice),
PROVIDED that the Borrower shall not have any rights under this sentence. All
such notices shall be provided to the West Virginia Lottery Commission and the
West Virginia Racing Commission at the following addresses:

                            Charleston, WV 25311

            (d) The order and manner in which the Lenders' rights and remedies
are to be exercised shall be determined by the Requisite Lenders in their sole
discretion, and all payments received by the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, or any of them, shall be applied first to the costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and the reasonably
allocated costs of attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or by any
Lender) of the Administrative Agent and of the Lenders, and thereafter paid pro
rata to the Lenders in the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed
to each Lender under the Loan Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed
under the Loan Documents to all the Lenders, without priority or preference
among the Lenders. Regardless of how each Lender may treat payments for the
purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing Borrower's
Obligations hereunder and under the Notes, payments shall be applied FIRST, to
the costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as set forth
above, SECOND, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest due under any Loan
Documents to and including the date of such application (ratably, and without
duplication, according to the accrued and unpaid interest due under each of the
Loan Documents), and THIRD, to the payment of all other amounts (including
principal and fees) then owing to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under
the Loan Documents. No application of payments will cure any Event of Default,
or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the
Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or
remedies of the Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

                                   Article 10
                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

      10.1 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION. Subject to Section 10.8, each Creditor
hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under
the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
thereof or are reasonably incidental, as determined by the Administrative Agent,
thereto. This appointment and authorization is intended solely for the purpose
of facilitating the servicing of the Loans and does not constitute appointment
of the Administrative Agent as a trustee or agent for any Lender or as
representative of any Lender for any other purpose and, EXCEPT as specifically
set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall
take such action and exercise such powers only in an administrative and
ministerial capacity.

      10.2 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND AFFILIATES. Bank of America (and each
successor Administrative Agent) has the same rights and powers under the Loan
Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
the Administrative Agent, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" includes Bank of
America in its individual capacity. Bank of America (and each successor
Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to
and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as if it were not the Administrative Agent
and without any duty to account therefor to the other Creditors. Bank of America
(and each successor Administrative Agent) need not account to any other Creditor
for any monies received by it for reimbursement of its costs and expenses as
Administrative Agent hereunder, or for any monies received by it in its capacity
as a Lender hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to hold a
fiduciary trust or other special relationship or any other special relationship
with any other Creditor and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities,
duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or
otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

      10.3 PROPORTIONATE INTEREST IN ANY COLLATERAL. The Administrative Agent,
on behalf of all the Creditors, shall hold in accordance with the Loan Documents
all items of any collateral or interests therein received or held by the
Administrative Agent. Subject to the Administrative Agent's right to
reimbursement for its costs and expenses hereunder (INCLUDING reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements and other professional services and the
reasonably allocated costs of attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent)
and subject to the application of payments in accordance with Section 9.2(d),
each Lender shall have an interest in the Collateral or interests therein in the
same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed such Lender under the Loan
Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed under the Loan Documents to all
the Lenders, without priority or preference among the Lenders.


                                      -75-
<Page>

      10.4  LENDERS' CREDIT DECISIONS. Each Creditor agrees that it has,
independently and without reliance on any other Creditor or the directors,
officers, agents, employees or attorneys thereof, and instead in reliance upon
information supplied to it by or on behalf of the Obligors and upon such other
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own independent credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender agrees that it
shall, independently and without reliance upon any other Creditor or the
directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys thereof, continue to make
its own independent credit analyses and decisions in acting or not acting under
the Loan Documents.

      10.5  ACTION BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

            (a) Absent actual knowledge of the Administrative Agent of the
existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may assume
that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless the
Administrative Agent has received notice from the Obligors stating the nature of
the Default or has received notice from a Lender stating the nature of the
Default and that such Lender considers the Default to have occurred and to be
continuing.

            (b) The Administrative Agent has only those obligations under the
Loan Documents as are expressly set forth therein.

            (c) EXCEPT for any obligation expressly set forth in the Loan
Documents and as long as the Administrative Agent may assume that no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, but shall
not be required to, exercise its discretion to act or not act, PROVIDED that (i)
the Administrative Agent shall be required to act or not act upon the
instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent
required by Section 11.2) and those instructions shall be binding upon the
Administrative Agent and all of the other Creditors, and (ii) the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to act or not act if to do so would be contrary to
any Loan Document or to applicable Law or would result, in the reasonable
judgment of the Administrative Agent, in substantial risk of liability to the
Administrative Agent.

            (d) If the Administrative Agent has received a notice specified in
clause (a), the Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice thereof to
the Lenders and shall act or not act upon the instructions of the Requisite
Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 11.2),
PROVIDED that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to act or not
act if to do so would be contrary to any Loan Document or to applicable Law or
would result, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, in
substantial risk of liability to the Administrative Agent, and (ii) if the
Requisite Lenders (or all the Lenders, if required under Section 11.2) fail, for
five Business Days after the receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, to
instruct the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, may act or not act as it deems advisable for the protection of the
interests of the Lenders.


                                      -76-
<Page>

            (e) The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Creditor
for acting, or not acting, as instructed by the Requisite Lenders (or all the
Lenders, if required under Section 11.2), notwithstanding any other provision
hereof.

      10.6 LIABILITY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys shall be
liable for any action taken or not taken by them under or in connection with the
Loan Documents, EXCEPT for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Without limitation on the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and its directors,
officers, agents, employees and attorneys:

            (a) May treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the
Administrative Agent receives notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, in
form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, signed by the payee, and may
treat each Lender as the owner of that Lender's interest in the Obligations for
all purposes of this Agreement until the Administrative Agent receives notice of
the assignment or transfer thereof, in form satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, signed by that Lender.

            (b) May consult with legal counsel (INCLUDING in-house legal
counsel), accountants (INCLUDING in-house accountants) and other professionals
or experts selected by it, or with legal counsel, accountants or other
professionals or experts for Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Lenders, and
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in
accordance with any advice of such legal counsel, accountants or other
professionals or experts.

            (c) Shall not be responsible to any Creditor for any statement,
warranty or representation made in any of the Loan Documents or in any notice,
certificate, report, request or other statement (written or oral) given or made
in connection with any of the Loan Documents.

            (d) EXCEPT to the extent expressly set forth in the Loan Documents,
shall have no duty to ask or inquire as to the performance or observance by any
Obligor of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of any of the Loan
Documents or to inspect any Collateral or the Property, books or records of
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

            (e) Will not be responsible to any Creditor for the due execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency or
value of any Loan Document, any other instrument or writing furnished pursuant
thereto or in connection therewith, or any Collateral.

            (f) Will not incur any liability by acting or not acting in reliance
upon any Loan Document, notice, consent, certificate, statement, request or
other instrument or writing believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by
the proper party or parties.


                                      -77-
<Page>

            (g) Will not incur any liability for any arithmetical error in
computing any amount paid or payable by any Obligor or paid or payable to or
received or receivable from any Lender under any Loan Document, INCLUDING,
without limitation, principal, interest, commitment fees, Advances and other
amounts.

      10.7  INDEMNIFICATION. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its
Pro Rata Share, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, and each of its
directors, officers, agents, employees and attorneys harmless against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
(INCLUDING, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements and reasonably
allocated costs of attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent) that may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it or them in any way relating to or
arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or not taken by such
indemnitee thereunder, EXCEPT such as result from its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limitation on the foregoing, each Lender shall
reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for that Lender's Pro Rata Share
of any out-of-pocket cost or expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in
connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, amendment,
waiver, restructuring, reorganization (INCLUDING a bankruptcy reorganization),
enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents, to the extent that
any Obligor is required by Section 11.3 to pay that cost or expense but fails to
do so upon demand.

      10.8  SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent may, and at
the request of the Requisite Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon
thirty days' notice to the Lenders and Borrower. If the Administrative Agent
resigns as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Requisite Lenders
shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the
Lenders. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent may appoint a successor administrative agent from among the
Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative
agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the
rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term
"Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor administrative agent and the
retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative
Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 10, and
Sections 11.3, 11.11 and 11.22, shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent. If no
successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent
by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative
Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all
of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as
the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor administrative agent as provided for
above.

      10.9  FORECLOSURE ON COLLATERAL. It is understood and agreed that the
Liens of the Collateral Documents are subject to applicable Law, including
without limitation the


                                      -78-
<Page>

provisions of West Virginia Code Section 29-22a-1 ET SEQ. Without the Consent of
the West Virginia State Lottery Commission, only if such consent is required by
the Racetrack Video Lottery Act, W.Va. Code ss.29-22a-1, ET SEQ., the
Administrative Agent shall not assign, bail, sublease, hypothecate, transfer or
dispose of the video lottery terminals subject to the Collateral Documents and
associated equipment or any interest therein. In the event of foreclosure or
enforcement of the Lien created by any of the Collateral Documents, title to the
Collateral covered thereby shall be taken and held by the Administrative Agent
(or any designee thereof) pro rata for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance
with their Pro Rata Shares and shall be administered in accordance with the
standard form of collateral holding participation agreement used by the
Administrative Agent in comparable syndicated credit facilities.

      10.10 NO OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER. Nothing contained in this Article 10
shall be deemed to impose upon Borrower any obligation in respect of the due and
punctual performance by the Administrative Agent of its obligations to the
Lenders under any provision of this Agreement, and Borrower shall have no
liability to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in respect of any
failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to perform any of its
obligations to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement.

      10.11 PERMITTED RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. The Administrative Agent is hereby
authorized to release its Lien on any Collateral which is the subject of a
disposition permitted hereunder, and each Lender shall confirm upon request the
authority of the Administrative Agent to make any such release of Collateral.

                                   Article 11
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      11.1  CUMULATIVE REMEDIES; NO WAIVER. The rights, powers, privileges and
remedies of the Creditors provided herein, in the Notes and in the other Loan
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any right, power, privilege or
remedy provided by Law or equity. No failure or delay on the part of any
Creditor in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy may be, or may be
deemed to be, a waiver thereof; nor may any single or partial exercise of any
right, power, privilege or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of the
same or any other right, power, privilege or remedy. The terms and conditions of
Article 8 are inserted for the sole benefit of the Creditors; the same may be
waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, in respect of
any Loan or Letter of Credit without prejudicing the Creditors' rights to assert
them in whole or in part in respect of any other Loan or Letter of Credit.

      11.2  AMENDMENTS; CONSENTS. No amendment, modification, supplement,
extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any
departure by any Obligor therefrom, may in any event be effective unless in
writing signed or approved in writing by the Requisite Lenders or by the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Requisite Lenders (and, in the case
of any amendment, modification or supplement to (i) Article 10, signed by the
Administrative Agent, and (ii) to any Loan Document, signed by the Obligors
party thereto), and then only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose given; and, without the approval in writing of all the Lenders affected
thereby, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent
may be effective:

            (a) To amend or modify the principal of, or the amount of principal
or principal prepayments on any Note, to increase the amount of the Commitment
or the Pro Rata Share of any Lender without the consent of that Lender,

            (b) Without the consent of the affected Lenders, to decrease the
rate of interest or amount of any fee payable to any Lender, or to decrease the
amount of any unused commitment fee payable to any Lender, or to decrease any
other fee or amount payable to any Lender under the Loan Documents;

            (c) To postpone any date (including the Maturity Date) fixed for any
payment of principal of, prepayment of principal of or any installment of
interest on, any Note or any installment of any unused commitment fee, or to
extend the term of the Commitment, or to release the Subsidiary Guaranty;

            (d) To release any portion of the Collateral having an aggregate
value in excess of $100,000 (EXCEPT in connection with the permitted sale or
other disposition thereof or as expressly provided in any Loan Document);


                                      -80-
<Page>

            (e) To amend the provisions of the definition of "REQUISITE
LENDERS", Section 8.2 or this Section 11.2; or

            (f) To amend any provision of this Agreement that expressly requires
the consent or approval of all the Lenders.

Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant
to this Section 11.2 shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all of
the Creditors.

      11.3  COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES. Borrower shall pay promptly after demand,
accompanied by an invoice therefor, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses (including without limitation, the allocated fees and expenses of an
in-house counsel), of the Administrative Agent in connection with the
negotiation, preparation, syndication, administration, execution and delivery of
the Loan Documents. Borrower shall pay promptly after demand, accompanied by an
invoice therefor, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment to the Loan Documents or
any waiver of the terms thereof, and the reasonable costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent and, after a Default, the Lenders in connection with the
refinancing, restructuring, reorganization (INCLUDING a bankruptcy
reorganization) and enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents,
and any matter related thereto. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include
the actual environmental review fees, filing fees, recording fees, title
insurance premiums and fees, appraisal fees, search fees, and other
out-of-pocket expenses and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of any
legal counsel (INCLUDING reasonably allocated costs of legal counsel employed by
the Administrative Agent), independent public accountants and other outside
experts retained by the Administrative Agent, whether or not such costs and
expenses are incurred or suffered by the Administrative Agent in connection with
or during the course of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of any Obligor.
Such costs and expenses shall also include, in the case of any amendment or
waiver of any Loan Document, the administrative costs of the Administrative
Agent reasonably attributable thereto. Borrower shall pay any and all
documentary, recording, stamp and other taxes, and all costs, expenses, fees and
charges payable or determined to be payable in connection with the filing or
recording of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or
writing to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, or in connection with any
transaction pursuant hereto or thereto. Any amount payable to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender under this Section 11.3 shall bear interest from the date of
formal written demand for payment after delinquency at the Default Rate.

      11.4  NATURE OF LENDERS' OBLIGATIONS. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder are several and not joint or joint and several. Nothing contained in
this Agreement or any other Loan Document and no action taken by any Creditor
pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make any of the Creditors a
partnership, an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among
themselves or with Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Lender's


                                      -81-
<Page>

obligation to make any Advance pursuant hereto is several and not joint or joint
and several, and in the case of the initial Advance only, is conditioned upon
the performance by all other Lenders of their obligations to make initial
Advances. A default by any Lender will not increase the Pro Rata Share of the
Commitment attributable to any other Lender. Any Lender not in default may, if
it desires, assume in such proportion as the nondefaulting Lenders agree the
obligations of any Lender in default, but is not obligated to do so.

      11.5  SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations and
warranties contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate
or other writing delivered by or on behalf of any one or more of the Obligors,
will survive the making of the Loans hereunder and the execution and delivery of
the Notes, and have been or will be relied upon by each Creditor,
notwithstanding any investigation made by the Creditors or on their behalf.

      11.6  NOTICES. EXCEPT as otherwise expressly provided in the Loan

      11.7  EXECUTION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS. This Agreement and any other Loan

thereto may execute any counterpart, each of which when executed and delivered
will be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, as the case may be, when taken together will be
deemed to be but one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by any party hereto or thereto will not become effective

all the parties hereto or thereto.

      11.8  BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT.

            (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Obligor
is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the relevant Obligor
and the Creditors, and their respective successors and assigns, EXCEPT that the
Obligors may not assign their rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest
herein or therein without the prior written consent of all the Lenders.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Borrower may when no


                                      -82-
<Page>

Default or Event of Default has occurred and remains continuing, assign the
Commitments to a limited liability company which (i) is wholly-owned, directly
or indirectly by Delaware North, (ii) concurrently assumes the Obligations and
the Obligations under the Senior Unsecured Notes pursuant to a transaction and
documents which are acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and (iii) succeeds
to substantially all of the assets, rights and privileges of the Borrower
(including without limitation the Collateral and all gaming licenses held by
Borrower). Each Lender represents that it is not acquiring its Note with a view
to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (subject to any requirement that disposition of such Note must be within
the control of such Lender). Any Lender may at any time pledge its Note or any
other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to a
Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release that Lender from its
obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a
Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge.

            (b) From time to time following the Effective Date, each Lender may
assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its Pro Rata
Share; PROVIDED that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if not then a Lender or an
Affiliate of the assigning Lender, shall be approved by the Administrative Agent
and Borrower (neither of which approvals shall be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), PROVIDED that the consent of Borrower to assignments shall not be
required when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and remains
continuing, (ii) such assignment shall be evidenced by an Assignment Agreement,
a copy of which shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent as provided
below, (iii) EXCEPT in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of the
assigning Lender, to another Lender or of the entire remaining Commitment of the
assigning Lender, the assignment shall not assign a Pro Rata Share of the
Commitment equivalent to less than $1,500,000, (iv) the effective date of any
such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment Agreement, but not
earlier than the date which is five Business Days after the date the
Administrative Agent has received the Assignment Agreement, and (v) no Lender
shall make any assignment to an Assignee which has been found by the West
Virginia State Lottery Commission or the West Virginia State Racing Commission,
acting under applicable Law, to be unsuitable as a Lender. Upon the effective
date of such Assignment Agreement, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be
a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, with the Pro Rata Share therein set
forth and, to the extent of such Pro Rata Share, the assigning Lender shall be
released from its further obligations under the Loan Documents. Borrower agrees
that it shall execute and deliver (against delivery by the assigning Lender to
Borrower of its Note) to such assignee Lender, a Note evidencing that assignee
Lender's Pro Rata Share, and to the assigning Lender, a Note evidencing the
remaining balance Pro Rata Share retained by the assigning Lender.

            (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, the
Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) other than the
representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pro
Rata Share being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the
assigning Lender has made no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations
made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality,


                                      -83-
<Page>

validity, enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Lender has made no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition
of Borrower or the performance by Borrower of the Obligations; (iii) it has
received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent
financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 and such other documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into such Assignment Agreement; (iv) it will, independently
and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by this Agreement; and
(vi) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which
by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

            (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent's Office a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it. After
receipt of a completed Assignment Agreement executed by any Lender and an
Eligible Assignee, and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such Eligible
Assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, promptly following the effective date
thereof, provide to Borrower and the Lenders a revised list of the Pro Rata
Shares of the Lenders giving effect thereto.

            (e) Each Lender may from time to time grant participations to one or
more banks or other financial institutions (INCLUDING another Lender) in all or
a portion of its Pro Rata Share; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) Borrower shall have
provided its written approval to such participation (such approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) such Lender's obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (iii) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations,
(iv) the participating banks or other financial institutions shall not be a
Lender hereunder for any purpose EXCEPT, if the participation Agreement so
provides, for the purposes of Sections 3.5, 3.6, 11.11 and 11.22 but only to the
extent that the cost of such benefits to Borrower does not exceed the cost which
Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation,
(v) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, (vi) the participation interest
shall be expressed as a percentage of the granting Lender's Pro Rata Share as it
then exists and shall not restrict an increase in the Commitment, or in the
granting Lender's Pro Rata Share, so long as the amount of the participation
interest is not affected thereby and (vii) the consent of the holder of such
participation interest shall not be required for amendments or waivers of
provisions of the Loan Documents OTHER THAN those which (A) extend the Maturity
Date or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to the Lenders,
(B) reduce the rate of interest payable with respect to the participation, any
fee or any other monetary amount payable to the participant, (C) reduce the
amount of any installment of principal due under the Notes in a


                                      -84-
<Page>

manner which affects the participant, or (D) release any material portion of the
Collateral, (E) increase the Commitment, only if the participant's Commitment is
increased.

            (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.8 to the contrary,
the rights of the Lenders to make assignments of, and grant participations in,
their Pro Rata Shares of the Commitment shall be subject to the approval of any
Regulatory Board (including the approval of the identity of any proposed
assignee or participant), to the extent required by Applicable Regulations.

      11.9  RIGHT OF SETOFF. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, each Creditor may (but only with the consent of the Requisite
Lenders) exercise its rights under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and
other applicable Laws and, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, apply any
funds in any deposit account maintained with it by Borrower or any Property of
Borrower in its possession against the Obligations.

      11.10 SHARING OF SETOFFS. Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through
the exercise of any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim against any
Obligor, or otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is
ratably more than any other Lender, through any means, receives in payment of
the Obligations held by that Lender, then, subject to applicable Laws, (a) the
Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or
otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have
simultaneously purchased, from the other Lender a participation in the
Obligations held by the other Lender and shall pay to the other Lender a
purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each
Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim
or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the
exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or receipt of
payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be
made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all of the Lenders
share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance
with each Lender's share of the Obligations immediately prior to, and without
taking into account, the payment; PROVIDED that, if all or any portion of a
disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of
setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from
the purchasing Lender by any Obligor or any Person claiming through or
succeeding to the rights of any Obligor, the purchase of a participation shall
be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of
the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that purchases a participation
in the Obligations pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall from and after the
purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and
other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the
Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were
the original owner of the Obligations purchased. Each Obligor expressly consents
to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation
in an Obligation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of setoff,
banker's lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if
the Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased.

      11.11 INDEMNITY BY BORROWER. Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold
harmless the Creditors and their respective members, directors, officers,
agents, attorneys and employees (collectively the "INDEMNITEES") from and
against: (a) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action, if the
claim, demand, action or cause of action arises out of or relates to the
Commitment, the use or contemplated use of proceeds of any Loan, or the
relationship between any such Person and the Creditors under this Agreement; (b)
any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Agency
arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action
described in clause (a) above; and (c) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or
expenses (INCLUDING reasonable attorneys' fees and the reasonably allocated
costs of attorneys employed by any Indemnitee and disbursements of such
attorneys and other professional services) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs
as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action or cause of
action; PROVIDED that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any
loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or as to any claim
asserted by that Indemnitee against Borrower to the extent that Borrower
prevails on that claim in a final and non-appealable determination by a court of
competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator appointed in accordance herewith. If any
claim, demand, action or cause of action is asserted against any Indemnitee,
such Indemnitee shall promptly notify Borrower, but the failure to so promptly
notify Borrower shall not affect Borrower's obligations under this Section
unless such failure materially prejudices Borrower's, as applicable, right to
participate in the contest of such claim, demand, action or cause of action, as
hereinafter provided. Each Indemnitee may contest the validity, applicability
and amount of such claim, demand, action or cause of action with counsel of its
own choosing and shall permit Borrower to participate in such contest. Any
Indemnitee that proposes to settle or compromise any claim or proceeding for
which Borrower may be liable for payment of indemnity hereunder shall give
Borrower written notice of the terms of such proposed settlement or compromise
reasonably in advance of settling or compromising such claim or proceeding. In
connection with any claim, demand, action or cause of action covered by this
Section 11.11 against more than one Indemnitee, all such Indemnitees shall be
represented by the same legal counsel (which may be a law firm engaged by the
Indemnitees or attorneys employed by an Indemnitee or a combination of the
foregoing) selected by the Indemnitees and reasonably acceptable to Borrower;
PROVIDED, that if such legal counsel determines in good faith that representing
all such Indemnitees would or could result in a conflict of interest under Laws
or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel or that a defense or
counterclaim is available to an Indemnitee that is not available to all such
Indemnitees, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of
interest or to permit unqualified assertion of such a defense or counterclaim,
each Indemnitee shall be entitled to separate representation by legal counsel
selected by that Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to Borrower, with all such
legal counsel using reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary duplication of
effort by counsel for all Indemnitees; and FURTHER PROVIDED that the
Administrative Agent (as an Indemnitee) shall at all times be entitled to
representation by separate legal counsel. Any obligation or liability of
Borrower to any Indemnitee under this Section 11.11 shall survive the expiration
or termination of this Agreement, the repayment of all Loans, and the payment
and performance of all other Obligations owed to the Lenders.

      11.12 NONLIABILITY OF THE LENDERS. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:

            (a) Any inspections of any Property of Borrower made by or through
the Creditors are for purposes of administration of the Loans only and Borrower
is not entitled to rely upon the same;

            (b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed,
performed, fulfilled or given to the Creditors pursuant to the Loan Documents,
no Creditor shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency,
legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision
or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not
constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by any
Creditor;

            (c) The relationship between each Obligor and Creditors is, and
shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lenders; no Creditor
shall under any circumstance be construed to be a partner or joint venturer with
the Obligors; no creditor shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a
relationship of confidence or trust or a fiduciary or other special relationship
with the Obligors, or to owe any fiduciary duty or other special duty to the
Obligors; no Creditor undertakes or assumes any responsibility or duty to
Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment
upon or inform the Obligors of any matter in connection with their Property or
the operations of the Obligors; the Obligors shall rely entirely upon their own
judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision,
exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by the
Creditors in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of the
Creditors and neither the Obligors nor any other Person is entitled to rely
thereon; and

            (d) The Creditors shall not be responsible or liable to any Person
for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death
to Persons or damage to Property caused by the actions, inaction or negligence
of the Obligors and Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds each Creditor harmless
from any such loss, damage, liability or claim.

      11.13 NO THIRD PARTIES BENEFITTED. This Agreement is made for the purpose
of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of Borrower
and the Creditors in connection with the Loans and is made for the sole benefit
of Borrower, the Creditors and the Creditors' successors and assigns. EXCEPT as
provided in Sections 11.8, 11.11 and 11.14, no other Person shall have any
rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof.

      11.14 CONFIDENTIALITY. Each Lender agrees to hold any confidential
information that it may receive from Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to
this Agreement in confidence, EXCEPT for disclosure: (i) to other Lenders; (ii)
to legal counsel and accountants for Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any
Lender; (iii) to other professional advisors to Borrower and its Subsidiaries or
any Lender, provided that the recipient has accepted such information subject to
a confidentiality Agreement substantially similar to this Section 11.14; (iv) to
regulatory officials having jurisdiction over that Lender; (v) to any Regulatory
Board having regulatory


                                      -87-
<Page>

jurisdiction over Borrower or its Subsidiaries; (vi) as required by Law or legal
process or in connection with any legal proceeding to which that Lender and
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries are adverse parties; and (vii) to another
financial institution in connection with a disposition or proposed disposition
to that financial institution of all or part of that Lender's interests
hereunder or a participation interest in its Note, provided that the Borrower
has provided its prior written approval and the recipient has accepted such
information subject to a written confidentiality Agreement. For purposes of the
foregoing, "confidential information" shall mean any information respecting
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries reasonably considered by them to be
confidential, OTHER THAN (i) information previously filed with any Governmental
Agency and available to the public, (ii) information previously published in any
public medium from a source other than, directly or indirectly, that Lender, and
(iii) information previously disclosed by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to
any Person not associated with themselves without a confidentiality Agreement or
obligation substantially similar to this Section 11.14. Nothing in this Section
shall be construed to create or give rise to any fiduciary duty or other special
duty on the part of any Creditor to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

      11.15 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Obligor shall, at their expense and without
expense to the Creditors, do, execute and deliver such further acts and
documents as any Creditor from time to time reasonably requires for the assuring
and confirming unto the Creditors of the rights hereby created or intended now
or hereafter so to be, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the
performance of the terms of any Loan Document.

      11.16 PRINCIPLES OF RESTATEMENT. This Agreement amends, restates and
supercedes the Existing Loan Agreement in its entirety and, together with the
other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated Agreement of the
parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements,
written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. The Creditors shall be entitled
to the continuing benefit of each Loan Document heretofore executed by Borrower
and each other Obligor which is not expressly terminated hereby, except to the
extent expressly amended in writing pursuant to Article 8 or otherwise,
including without limitation the Subsidiary Guaranty and each of the Collateral
Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement
and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall
control and govern; PROVIDED that the inclusion of supplemental rights or
remedies in favor of the Creditors in any other Loan Document shall not be
deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the
joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed
neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the
fair meaning thereof.

      11.17 GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT to the extent otherwise provided therein, each
Loan Document shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance
with, the local Laws of New York, without reference to the choice of law or
conflicts of laws provisions thereof.


                                      -88-
<Page>

      11.18 SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. Any provision in any Loan Document that
is held to be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid as to any party or in any
jurisdiction shall, as to that party or jurisdiction, be inoperative,
unenforceable or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions or the
operation, enforceability or validity of that provision as to any other party or
in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents
are declared to be severable.

      11.19 HEADINGS. Article and Section headings in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not
part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose.

      11.20 TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

      11.21 FOREIGN LENDERS AND PARTICIPANTS. Each Lender, and each holder of a
participation interest herein, that is incorporated or otherwise organized under
the Laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any State
thereof or the District of Columbia shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent) on the Effective Date (or after accepting an
assignment or receiving a participation interest herein pursuant to Section
11.8, if applicable) either Form W8-ECI or other Internal Revenue Service forms
satisfactory to Borrower and the Administrative Agent that no withholding under
the federal income tax laws is required with respect to such Person. Thereafter
and from time to time, each such Person shall (a) promptly submit to Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) such additional duly completed and
signed copies of one of such forms as may then be available under then current
United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory
to Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, United
States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Person by
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and (b) take such steps as shall not be
materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and
as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its LIBOR
Office, if any) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make
any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Person.

      11.22 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT
HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION
OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH
OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM
WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH
CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT
OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH
CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT
A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR
A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN


                                      -89-
<Page>

EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY.

      11.23 PURPORTED ORAL AMENDMENTS. EACH OBLIGOR EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY ONLY BE AMENDED OR MODIFIED, OR
THE PROVISIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF WAIVED OR SUPPLEMENTED, BY AN INSTRUMENT IN
WRITING THAT COMPLIES WITH SECTION 11.2. BORROWER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT RELY
ON ANY COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR ORAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS
BY ANY CREDITOR OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH SECTION 11.2 TO
EFFECT AN AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, WAIVER OR SUPPLEMENT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
