          b. The benefits and obligations of this Note shall inure to and be
          binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and
          assigns, provided that any succession or assignment is permitted under
          the Management Agreement.

          c. Waiver of any one default shall not cause or imply a waiver any
          subsequent default.

          d. This Note, together with the documents listed in Section 15.17 of
          the Development Agreement, as each has been amended to date, sets
          forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to
          the subject matter hereof. All agreements, covenants, representations,
          and warranties, express or implied, oral or written, of the parties
          with respect to the subject matter hereof are contained herein and
          therein. This Note shall not be supplemented, amended or modified by
          any course of dealing, course of performance or uses of trade and may
          only be amended or modified by a written instrument duly executed by
          officers of both parties.

          e. This Note has been executed and delivered as a complete amendment
          and restatement in its entirety of that certain Lakes Minimum Payments
          Note dated as of December 22, 2004 made payable by the Band to Lakes,
          but does not extinguish, satisfy, discharge or constitute a novation
          thereof, and the Band hereby reaffirms, subject to the provisions of
          this Note, the indebtedness evidenced thereby. Lakes agrees to return
          to the Band the original Lakes Minimum Payments Note dated as of
          December 22, 2004.

          f. Any other provision of this Note to the contrary notwithstanding:
          (i) in no event shall the rate of interest payable under this Note
          exceed the maximum rate permitted by law (the "Legal Rate"); (ii) if
          at any time the rate of interest computed as provided above (the
          "Computed Rate") exceeds the Legal Rate, then interest shall accrue
          thereafter at the Legal Rate regardless of whether the Computed Rate
          is greater or less than the Legal Rate until the total amount of
          interest payable hereunder equals the amount that would have been
          payable without regard to this sentence, or until this Note is paid in
          full, whichever occurs first; and (iii) if the holder receives any
          interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by this sentence, the
          excess shall be credited against the principal hereof or refunded, at
          the holder's option.
