contained in Section 10.6(a) through (c) is invalid or unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete
specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This
Section 10.6 will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed. If Sellers or any of their Affiliates violate any of their obligations under this Section 10.6, Buyer
may proceed against Sellers or such Affiliates, as applicable, in law or in equity for such damages or other relief as a court may deem appropriate. Sellers acknowledge that a violation of this Section 10.6 may cause Buyer irreparable

and with their respective Representatives in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall (a) furnish upon request to each other such further information;
(b) execute and deliver to each other such other documents; and (c) do such other acts and things, all as the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the Contemplated
Transactions. 
 10.9 Buyer’s Gross Gaming Revenue. For the purpose of enabling Sellers’ Representatives to
monitor satisfaction of the revenue milestones for the payment of the Contingent Payment under Section 2.3(d)(ii), Buyer shall provide to Sellers’ Representatives, after the end of each calendar year during the first full seven
(7) calendar years of operation after the Commencement Date, a calculation of Buyer’s Gross Gaming Revenue (exclusive of any promotional allowances, including free play of customers) for such calendar year, together with a summary of its
annual report filed with the Ohio Regulator. Buyer shall provide such information to Sellers’ Representatives promptly (but in no event less than thirty (30) days) after it files its annual report with the Ohio Regulator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Buyer’s obligation to provide such financial information and documentation to Sellers’ Representatives shall terminate upon Buyer’s payment of the Contingent Payment.

 10.10 Change Of Name. Immediately after the Closing, each Seller shall (a) amend
its Governing Documents and take all other actions necessary to change its name to one sufficiently dissimilar to such Seller’s present name, in Buyer’s judgment, to avoid confusion and (b) take all actions requested by Buyer to
enable Buyer to change its name to the present name of any of Sellers. 
 10.11 Property Acquisition Funds. At or prior
to Closing, Buyer will provide the Property Acquisition Funds to New Property Entity. 
 10.12 New Property and Ground
Lease. Promptly after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing, Sellers and Sellers’ Representative shall use, and shall cause New Property Entity to use, their best efforts to enter into an agreement with the State of Ohio (or
other owner(s) of the New Property) for New Property Entity to purchase the New Property using the Property Acquisition Funds. Such agreement with the State of Ohio (or such other owner(s)) will provide for the closing of the New Property purchase
transaction concurrently with the Closing of the transactions provided for in this Agreement and will be subject to the approval of Buyer. Immediately following the closing of said New Property purchase transaction, Sellers and Sellers’
Representative shall cause New Property Entity to lease the New Property to Buyer pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease. At the Closing, Sellers and Sellers’ Representative shall cause New Property Entity to secure an owner’s title
insurance policy for the New Property issued through Escrow Agent. 
 10.13 Sale of New Property to Buyer. 

(a) At such time as the Buyer Promissory Note has been paid in full, the Premises Purchase Promissory Note shall be cancelled and
concurrently Sellers and Sellers Representatives shall cause New Property Entity to transfer and convey to Buyer good and marketable title to the New Property, free and clear of all Encumbrances, except for Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in the
Ground Lease), those matters that have been approved in writing by Buyer and real estate Taxes. The terms under which the New Property will be conveyed to Buyer are more particularly set forth in the Ground Lease. 

(b) The Parties intend that the purchase and resale of the New Property described in Sections 10.12 and 10.13(a) of this Agreement be
interpreted as a single land purchase transaction involving the purchase of the New Property by Buyer for federal, state and local income tax purposes as provided in Section 34 of the Ground Lease, and agree to treat and report the transactions
under this Agreement for federal, state and local income tax purposes as provided in and subject to Section 34 of the Ground Lease. 
  

	11.	INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES 

 11.1
Indemnification by Sellers. 
 (a) Each Seller agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, and
its Representatives, Parent Companies, members, subsidiaries and Related Persons 

  
 -41-









 
(collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Persons”) for any Damages incurred by a Buyer Indemnified Person in connection with or arising from: (i) any breach by a Seller of any
covenant in this Agreement or in any other certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by either Seller pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) any failure of any Seller to perform any of its obligations in this Agreement or any other
certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by either Seller pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) any breach of any warranty or the inaccuracy of any representation of Seller contained or referred to in this Agreement or any certificate
delivered by either Seller hereunder; (iv) claims by any Person pursuant to Sections 1701.76 or 1701.85 of the Ohio Revised Code or any other exercise of appraisal or dissenters’ rights by holders of capital stock of either Seller, or
(v) the failure of either Seller to pay, perform or discharge any Retained Liability. 
 (b) Upon notice to Sellers’
Representatives specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor (“Set Off Notice”), Buyer may set off any amount to which it reasonably and in good faith determines it may be entitled under this Section 11.1(b)
against amounts otherwise payable under the Buyer Promissory Note or the Contingent Payment; provided, however, that if (i) in good faith a Seller objects to and challenges such set off by written notice to Buyer within
thirty (30) days after a Seller receives the Set Off Notice, and (ii) upon final resolution, by litigation or settlement, of such challenge the amount of such set off applied by Buyer is reduced (a “Set Off Adjustment”),
then the amount of the Set Off Adjustment shall be credited to the Buyer Promissory Note or the Contingent Payment, as applicable. The exercise of such right of set off by Buyer, if reasonable and in good faith, whether or not ultimately determined
to be justified, will not constitute an event of default under the Buyer Promissory Note, the Security Agreement or this Agreement. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set off or to give a notice of a claim under this
Agreement will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it. Any exercise of the right of set off, if made by Buyer unreasonably or not in good faith, shall
constitute an event of default and/or breach under the Buyer Promissory Note, the Security Agreement and this Agreement. 
 (c)
The indemnification provided for in this Section 11.1 shall terminate three (3) years after the Closing Date, except for: (i) the obligations and representations of Seller under the Bill of Sale and any Intellectual Property
Assignment, as to which no time limitation shall apply; (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.9, and the covenants set forth in Sections 10.2, 10.3, 10.5 and
10.8, as to all of which no time limitation shall apply; (iii) the covenants set forth in Sections 10.6, as to which the indemnification provided for in this Section 11.1 shall terminate one year after the expiration
of the periods provided for therein; and (iv) any Damages of which any Buyer Indemnified Persons has notified any Seller or a Sellers’ Representative in accordance with the requirements of Section 11.3 on or prior to the date
such indemnification would otherwise terminate in accordance with this Section 11.1, as to which the obligation of Sellers shall continue until the liability of Sellers shall have been determined pursuant to this Article 11, and
Sellers shall have reimbursed all Buyer Indemnified Persons for the full amount of such Damages in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the indemnification obligation of Sellers under Section 11.1(a)(iii) shall not accrue until and unless the aggregate Damages incurred
by one or more Buyer Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(iii)  

  
 -42-









 
exceed Two Hundred Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($225,000.00) (the “Threshold Amount”), provided that, in the event the Threshold Amount is exceeded, the Buyer
Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to indemnification by Sellers for all Damages incurred by them in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000); except that, the provisions of this Section 11.1(d) shall not apply
to or otherwise limit Sellers’ indemnification obligations to any Buyer Indemnified Person for Damages arising out of the Pending Litigation or any Proceeding directly or indirectly related thereto. 

(e) All indemnifiable Damages incurred by a Buyer Indemnified Person under this Section 11.1, to the extent not paid directly
by Sellers, shall be treated as a reduction of the Purchase Price. To the extent that indemnifiable Damages incurred by a Buyer Indemnified Person require any out-of-pocket payment by a Buyer Indemnified Person, the amount of such out-of-pocket
payment shall, at the option of Buyer (i) be credited against all subsequent quarterly installment payments that otherwise would be due under the Buyer Promissory Note until the amount of all such Damages have been so credited, (ii) reduce
the principal balance due on the Buyer Promissory Note on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such out-of-pocket payment (and in such event, the principal balance due on the Buyer Promissory Note shall be reduced by the amount of such Damages
and the future quarterly installment payments under the Buyer Promissory Notes shall be reduced and amortized proportionately to reflect a payoff of such principal balance), or (iii) any combination of (i) and (ii); provided,
however, that with respect to the aggregate amount of such indemnifiable Damages incurred by a Buyer Indemnified Person less any such out-of-pocket payment by a Buyer Indemnified Person, then the principal balance due on the Buyer
Promissory Note shall be reduced by the amount of such Damages and the future quarterly installment payments under the Buyer Promissory Note shall be reduced and amortized proportionately to reflect a payoff of such principal balance. 

(f) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, and absent any fraud or willful misconduct by Sellers, Sellers shall have no
liability under Section 11.1(a)(iii) to any Buyer Indemnified Persons for any Damages that exceed in the aggregate Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), except that, the provisions of this Section 11.1(f) shall not
apply to or otherwise limit Sellers’ indemnification obligations to any Buyer Indemnified Person for Damages arising out of the Pending Litigation or any Proceeding directly or indirectly related thereto. 

11.2 Indemnification by Buyer. 
 (a) Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Seller from and against any and all Damages incurred by such Seller in connection with or arising from: (i) any breach by Buyer of any of its
covenants or agreements in this Agreement or any other certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) any failure by Buyer to perform any of its obligations in this Agreement or any other
certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; or (iii) any breach of any warranty or the inaccuracy of any representation of Buyer contained or referred to in this Agreement or in any certificate
delivered by or on behalf of Buyer pursuant hereto. 
 (b) The indemnification provided for in this Section 11.2
shall terminate two (2) years after the Closing Date (and no claims shall be made by Sellers under this Section 11.2  

  
 -43-









 
thereafter), except as to any Damages of which Sellers have notified Buyer in accordance with the requirements of Section 11.3 on or prior to the date such indemnification would
otherwise terminate in accordance with this Section 11.2, as to which the obligation of Buyer shall continue until the liability of Buyer shall have been determined pursuant to this Article 11, and Buyer shall have reimbursed
Sellers for the full amount of such Damages. 
 11.3 Notice of Claims. 

(a) Any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) seeking indemnification hereunder shall give to the party obligated to provide
indemnification to such Indemnified Person (the “Indemnifying Person”) a notice (a “Claim Notice”) describing in good faith and in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder,
and the amount (if then known) or method of computation of the amount of such claim, and a reference to the provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument executed hereunder or in connection herewith upon which such claim
is based; provided, that a Claim Notice in respect of any action at law or suit in equity by or against a third Person as to which indemnification will be sought shall be given promptly after the action or suit is commenced; provided
further that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations hereunder except to the extent it shall have been prejudiced by such failure. 

(b) After the giving of any Claim Notice pursuant hereto, the amount of indemnification to which an Indemnified Person shall be entitled
under this Article 11 shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) by any
other means to which the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person shall agree. 
 11.14 Third Person Claims. The
Indemnified Person shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, the defense, compromise or settlement of any third Person claim, action or suit against such Indemnified Person as to which indemnification will be
sought by any Indemnified Person from any Indemnifying Person hereunder. In any such case the Indemnifying Person shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences,
discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnified Person in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Person may participate, through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any
such claim, action or suit. 
  

	12.	CONFIDENTIALITY 

 Each party
agrees that it will treat in confidence all documents, materials and other information which it shall have obtained regarding the other party during the course of the negotiations leading to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
(whether obtained before or after the date of this Agreement), the investigation provided for herein and the preparation of this Agreement and other related documents, and, if the Contemplated Transactions are not consummated, each party will return
to the other party all copies of nonpublic documents and materials which have been furnished in connection therewith. Such documents, materials and information shall not be communicated to any third Person (other than, in the case of Buyer, to its
counsel, accountants, financial advisors or lenders, and in the case of 

  
 -44-









 
Sellers, to its counsel, accountants or financial advisors). No other party shall use any confidential information in any manner whatsoever except solely for the purpose of evaluating the
Contemplated Transactions; provided, however, that after the Closing Buyer may use or disclose any confidential information with respect to, about or otherwise reasonably related to the Acquired Assets. The obligation of each party to
treat such documents, materials and other information in confidence shall not apply to any information which (i) is or becomes available to such party from a source other than the other party, (ii) is or becomes available to the public
other than as a result of disclosure by such party or its agents, (iii) is required to be disclosed under applicable law or judicial process, but only to the extent it must be disclosed, or (iv) such party reasonably deems necessary to
disclose to obtain any of the consents or approvals contemplated hereby. 
  

	13.	GENERAL PROVISIONS 

 13.1
Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party to this Agreement will bear its respective fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the
Contemplated Transactions, including all fees and expense of its Representatives. Buyer will pay one-half and Sellers will pay one-half of (a) the costs of compliance with the HSR Act, including the HSR Act filing fee and the attorneys’
fees incurred in connection with such compliance, and (b) the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated, the obligation of each party to pay its own fees and expenses will be subject to
any rights of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another party. 
 13.2 Public Announcements. Any
public announcement, press release or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions will be issued, if at all, at such time and in such manner as Buyer determines. Except with the prior consent of Buyer and
Sellers’ Representatives or as permitted by this Agreement, Buyer and its Representatives shall not disclose, and Sellers, Sellers’ Representatives and their Representatives shall not disclose, to any Person any information about the
Contemplated Transactions, including the status of such discussions or negotiations, the execution of any documents (including this Agreement) or any of the terms of the Contemplated Transactions or the related documents (including this Agreement);
provided, however, that the parties may make such disclosures as are specifically permitted by this Agreement and may disclose the terms of the Contemplated Transactions to Governmental Bodies (to the extent contemplated by this
Agreement) and to the parties’ lenders, prospective lenders and Representatives on a confidential basis. Sellers’ Representatives and Buyer will consult with each other concerning the means by which any Seller’s employees, customers,
suppliers and others having dealings with such Seller will be informed of the Contemplated Transactions, and Buyer will have the right to be present for any such communication.

 13.4 Jurisdiction; Service of Process. Any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Contemplated Transaction may be brought in the courts of the State of Ohio, County of
Franklin, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Proceeding, waives
any objection it may now or hereafter have to venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined only in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any Contemplated Transaction in any other court. The parties agree that either or both of them may file a copy of this paragraph with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained agreement
between the parties irrevocably to waive any objections to venue or to convenience of forum. Process in any Proceeding referred to in the first sentence of this section may be served on any party anywhere in the world. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY
OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY. 
 13.5 Enforcement Of Agreement. Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their
specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by any Seller could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which Buyer may be entitled, at law or in equity,
it shall 

  
 -47-









 
be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches
of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking. 
 13.6 Waiver; Remedies
Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents
referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in
whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and
(c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the
documents referred to in this Agreement. 
 13.7 Entire Agreement And Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior
agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to its subject matter (including any letter of intent and any confidentiality agreement between Buyer and Seller) and constitutes (along with the Disclosure Letter, Exhibits and
other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified
except by a written agreement executed by all of the parties hereto. 
 13.8 Disclosure Letter. The information in the
Disclosure Letter attached hereto as Exhibit 13.8 (the “Disclosure Letter”) relate only to the provisions in the Section of this Agreement to which they expressly relate and not to any other provision in this Agreement. If
there is any inconsistency between the statements in this Agreement and those in the Disclosure Letter (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Letter with respect to a specifically identified representation or
warranty), the statements in this Agreement will control. The Disclosure Letter is incorporated herein by reference. 
 13.9
Assignments, Successors And No Third-Party Rights. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Buyer may assign any of its
rights and delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement to any subsidiary of Buyer. Any assignment of rights or assets by Buyer (a) shall not relieve, release or serve to cancel any obligation or liability of Buyer under or with respect
to any of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Consulting Agreement, the Buyer Promissory Note, the Security Agreement, the Lease Agreement and this Agreement and (b) to be effective shall require the receipt by
Sellers’ Representatives of a written agreement, reasonably satisfactory to Sellers’ Representatives, of such assignee of Buyer to assume the obligations and liabilities of Buyer under and with respect to Assignment and Assumption
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Consulting Agreement, 

  
 -48-









 
the Buyer Promissory Note, the Security Agreement, the Lease Agreement and this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon and
inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except such rights as shall inure to a successor or permitted assignee pursuant to this Section 13.9. 

13.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction,
the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

 13.11 Construction. The headings of Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will
not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Articles,” “Sections” and “Parts” refer to the corresponding Articles, Sections and Parts of this Agreement and the Disclosure Letter. 

13.12 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Ohio without regard to
conflicts-of-laws principles that would require the application of any other law. 
 13.13 Execution Of Agreement. This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of
this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the parties
transmitted by facsimile shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. 
 13.14 Sellers’
Representatives. 
 (a) Sellers (by virtue of their execution of this Agreement and the acceptance of the consideration
payable hereunder) hereby irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint Nixon and Carlo, acting together unanimously, as Sellers’ Representatives and the agents and true and lawful attorneys-in-fact of Sellers, with full power of substitution,
to act in the name, place and stead of Sellers for purposes of executing any documents and taking any actions that the Sellers’ Representative may, in their sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in all matters
relating to or arising out of this Agreement, including in connection with any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Article 11. The power of attorney granted in this Section 13.14(a): (i) is coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable; (ii) may be delegated by Sellers’ Representatives; and (iii) shall survive the dissolution and liquidation of each of Sellers. Each of Nixon and Carlo hereby accepts his appointment as a
Sellers’ Representative. 
 (b) Sellers (by virtue of their execution of this Agreement) grant to Sellers’
Representatives full authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file on behalf of 

  
 -49-









 
Sellers (in the name of any or all of Sellers or otherwise) any and all documents that Sellers’ Representative may, in their sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or
appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as Sellers’ Representative may, in their sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in performing its duties as contemplated by
 Section 13.14(a). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Contract executed in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, each Buyer Indemnified Person shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Sellers’ Representatives on all
matters relating to Article 11, and shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Seller by Sellers’ Representatives, and on
any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Seller by Sellers’ Representatives, as fully binding upon such Seller. 
 (c) Buyer shall be entitled to rely upon any document or other paper delivered by Sellers’ Representatives as (i) genuine and correct and (ii) having been duly signed or sent by
Sellers’ Representatives, and Buyer shall not be liable to any of Sellers for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Buyer in such reliance. 
 (d) In dealing with this Agreement and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon Sellers’ Representatives under this Agreement, (i) Sellers’
Representatives shall not assume any, and shall incur no, responsibility to any Seller by reason of any error in judgment or other act or failure to act in connection with this Agreement, except for any act or failure to act which represents gross
negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith, and (ii) Sellers’ Representatives shall be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue, and any error in
judgment or other act or failure to act on the part of Sellers’ Representatives pursuant to such advice shall not subject Sellers’ Representatives to liability to any Seller. Sellers shall indemnify Sellers’ Representatives and hold
them harmless against and from any loss, liability or expense (including attorneys fees reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of their duties under this Agreement) incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad
faith on their part and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of their duties hereunder. In no event shall Sellers’ Representatives be liable for any incidental, consequential or punitive damages. 

(e) Upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Buyer, a Sellers’ Representative shall have the right to resign as such in his sole
discretion for any reason and the Sellers (acting unanimously) shall have the right to remove a Sellers’ Representative for any reason. If a Sellers’ Representative shall be so removed, resign, die, become disabled or otherwise become
unable to fulfill his responsibilities under this Section 13.14 or cease to function in his capacity as Sellers’ Representative for any reason whatsoever, then Sellers (acting unanimously) may appoint a successor and, promptly
thereafter, shall notify Buyer of the identity of such successor. Until any such successor is so appointed, the remaining Sellers’ Representative, acting alone, shall exercise all of the power and authority of Sellers’ Representatives
under this Agreement. In any event, the former Sellers’ Representative shall continue to have all rights to indemnification provided in Section 13.14(d). Any such successor shall become a “Sellers’ Representative” for
all purposes of this Agreement, including Article 11 and this Section 13.14. If for any reason there is no Sellers’ Representative at any time, all references herein to the Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed to
refer to Sellers. 

  
 -50-









 (f) In connection with the performance of their obligations, Sellers’ Representatives
shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to select and engage attorneys, accountants and investment bankers, advisors and consultants and obtain such other professional and expert assistance as Sellers’ Representatives may deem
necessary or advisable in their sole discretion. 
 (g) All fees and expenses incurred by Sellers’ Representatives in
connection with the performance of their duties as Sellers’ Representatives shall be borne and paid exclusively by Sellers. Sellers’ Representatives may pay or reimburse any such fees and expenses from the payments made by Buyer under
Section 2.3. 
 (h) All of the indemnities, immunities and powers granted to Sellers’ Representatives under
this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 13.15 Termination of Restated Joint Venture Plan. At
the time of their execution of this Agreement, Buyer and Sellers also shall execute, and Buyer shall cause DNC Gaming to execute, the Termination and Mutual Release Agreement in the form of
 Exhibit 13.15 pursuant to which the
Restated Joint Venture Plan shall be terminated.

with any and all appurtenances, rights, privileges and easements benefiting, belonging or pertaining thereto, and any right, title and interest of Landlord in and to any land lying in the bed of any alley, street, road or highway (open or proposed)
adjoining the same (collectively, the “Premises”). 
 SECTION 2. Term. The term of this Lease shall
commence on             , 201    (the “Commencement Date”). The initial term of this Lease shall be for the period of approximately forty
(40) years ending on the day prior to the fortieth (40th) anniversary of the Commencement Date unless the Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, in which event the term shall end on the last day of the month containing such
anniversary (the “Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated as herein provided. 
 SECTION 3. Rent.

 (a) Commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay Landlord for the Premises, within fifteen
(15) days following written demand therefor sent by Landlord to Tenant, “Basic Rent” at the rate of One and 00/100 Dollars ($1.00) per annum. 
 (b) Tenant has delivered to Lebanon Trotting Club, Inc. and Miami Valley Trotting, Inc., affiliates of Landlord, a promissory note of even date herewith in the original principal amount of Fifty Million

under the Note, the full amount of all Additional Rent paid will be applied to accrued and unpaid interest under the Note. Additional Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments, in arrears, on the first day of each month. Basic Rent and
Additional Rent are sometimes hereinafter referred to as “Rent”. 
 (c) All amounts payable by Tenant to
Landlord under this Lease shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Landlord in writing. If any payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding

SECTION 4. Use of Premises. Tenant may use the Premises for any lawful use. Tenant shall not use the Premises for any unlawful or
illegal use. Tenant and its designees may, at any time, and from time to time, rezone the Premises and any part thereof,

requested by Tenant. 
 (b) Tenant shall have the right to apply for the conversion of any assessment for local improvements to
annual installments, and upon such conversion Tenant shall pay and discharge said installments as they shall become due and payable during the term. Landlord agrees to permit the application for the foregoing conversion to be filed in
Landlord’s name, if necessary, and shall execute any and all documents requested by Tenant. 
 (c) Tenant shall have the
right to contest or review all Taxes by legal proceedings, or in such other manner as it may deem suitable (at Tenant’s cost and expense, and, if necessary, in the name of and with the cooperation of Landlord and Landlord shall execute all
necessary documents). Tenant shall pay the amount of Taxes finally levied or assessed against the Premises. If there shall be any refunds or rebates of Taxes paid by Tenant, such refund or rebate shall belong to Tenant and any refunds received by
Landlord are to be held in trust and promptly paid to Tenant. 
 (d) On request of Tenant at any time, and from time to time,
but without cost to Landlord, Landlord shall make application individually or join in Tenant’s application for creation of multiple tax parcels for the Premises and separate tax assessments for such portions of the Premises as Tenant shall
designate. Landlord agrees upon request of Tenant to execute such instruments and to give Tenant such assistance in connection with such applications as may be required. 
 (e) Nothing in this Lease shall require or be construed to require Tenant to pay any inheritance, estate, succession, conveyance, transfer, gift, franchise, corporate activities, income or profit taxes
that are or may be imposed upon Landlord, its successors or assigns, or as a result of or measured by the rents payable under this Lease. 
 SECTION 6. Utilities and Services

charges for sewer, water, heat, gas, hot water, electricity, light, power, telecommunications and all other utilities and services furnished to the Premises during the term.

the Premises, including, without limitation, buildings, garages, parking areas, driveways and walks as Tenant shall determine, in its sole discretion. At all times during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall be deemed to be the owner of all
improvements on the Premises and Tenant shall have the sole and exclusive right to carry the value of all improvements on its books and the sole and exclusive right to all depreciation thereon for Federal, State and Local tax purposes.

 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 SECTION 8. Covenant Against Liens. 
 (a) If, because of any act of Tenant,
any mechanic’s lien is filed against any portion of the Premises, Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, defend the same or cause the same to be discharged of record or bonded; and Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord against
and from all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims and demands, including reasonable counsel fees, resulting therefrom. Notice is hereby given that the Landlord shall not be liable for any labor or materials furnished to Tenant upon credit,
and that no mechanic’s or any other lien for any such labor or materials furnished shall attach to or affect the reversionary or other estate or interest of Landlord in the Premises. 

(b) Landlord shall not, prior to termination of this Lease, without the prior written consent of Tenant, (i) grant any mortgages,
security interests, easements, occupancy rights, rights-of-way or encumbrances with respect to the Premises; (ii) permit any lien or other encumbrance to be filed against or attach to the Premises; or (iii) change the zoning or other
entitlements affecting the Premises. 
 SECTION 9. Assignment and Subletting; Transfers. 

(a) Tenant may at any time, and from time to time, assign, mortgage or grant security interests in all or any portion of Tenant’s
interest in this Lease, in whole or in part, and sublet, license and grant other occupancy rights in all or any portion of the Premises and the improvements thereon, in Tenant’s sole discretion, without the consent or approval of Landlord.

 (b) In the event that Landlord transfers the fee interest in the Premises to a third party, Landlord shall simultaneously
transfer to such third party Landlord’s interest in both (i) this Lease; and (ii) the Premises Purchase Promissory Note (as hereinafter defined), it being the intention of the parties that the fee ownership of the Premises, the
Landlord’s interest in this Lease and the maker’s interest in the Premises Purchase Promissory Note shall at all times be owned by the same person or entity. 
 SECTION 10. Indemnity. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and save harmless Landlord from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties or judgments arising from loss, damage or injury to
person or property sustained by anyone in and on the Premises, unless due to the willful acts or gross negligence of Landlord or its members, officers or employees. 
 SECTION 11. Insurance. 
 (a) Tenant shall provide at its expense during the
term, general liability insurance from an insurance company licensed to do business in the State of Ohio in the amount of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) combined single limit with respect to injury or death to persons or damage to
property. Such policy or policies shall include Landlord as an additional insured. Tenant shall deliver certificates of such insurance to Landlord at the beginning of the term and thereafter upon written request from Landlord. 

(b) Tenant may keep the improvements on the Premises insured for the benefit of Tenant and the holder of any Mortgage (as hereinafter
defined), as their respective interests may appear, against loss or damage by casualty in an amount and with a deductible chosen by Tenant. All proceeds payable under such policies shall be payable to Tenant and Mortgagee (as hereinafter defined),
if any, or, if no Mortgagee, to Tenant. All proceeds shall be paid directly to Tenant or a Mortgagee, and Landlord shall not be entitled to, and shall have no interest in, any such proceeds. Landlord shall cooperate fully with

 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 Tenant in order to obtain the largest possible recovery and execute any and all consents and other instruments and take all other actions necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the same and to
cause such proceeds to be paid as hereinbefore provided. Landlord shall not carry any insurance concurrent in coverage and contributing in the event of loss with any insurance secured by Tenant. 

(c) Any insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to this Lease may be provided by blanket insurance covering the Premises and other locations
of Tenant or its affiliates. 
 SECTION 12. Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive all rights of
recovery and causes of action against the other and all persons claiming by, through or under them with respect to damage to property to the extent that such damage is covered by insurance, and all property insurance policies carried by Tenant
covering the improvements on the Premises shall expressly waive any right on the part of the insurer against Landlord. 

SECTION 13. Damage and Destruction. In the event that the improvements on the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or
other casualty then Tenant may elect to: (i) terminate this Lease, and remove, if requested by Landlord, all debris and the remains of the damaged improvements from the Premises; or (ii) not terminate this Lease and remove, construct and
repair such improvements as Tenant deems desirable. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of such election within one hundred eighty (180) days after the receipt of all final insurance proceeds. Notwithstanding such damage or
destruction, until such time as Tenant elects to terminate this Lease, if applicable, Rent and other amounts shall be paid as and when due under this Lease. Landlord hereby waives and relinquishes all rights to any insurance proceeds with respect to
damage or destruction. 
 SECTION 14. Eminent Domain. 

(a) If during the term the entire Premises shall be taken by any public authority for any public use or by condemnation or eminent domain
proceedings, and such taking relates to the entire fee estate in and to the land, as well as all right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder in the Premises, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such taking, and all rights and
obligations of the parties hereto thereafter accruing shall cease and terminate except as hereinafter set forth. In the event of such taking, the entire award compensation and damages shall be paid to and be the sole property of Tenant, and Landlord
waives and relinquishes any rights to such award. 
 (b) If during the term a material part of the Premises shall be taken and
Tenant determines that the remaining portion of the Premises cannot reasonably be used or utilized for the purposes for which the Premises were being used at the time of the taking, Tenant shall have the right and option upon sixty (60) days
written notice to Landlord to terminate this Lease, in which event the award, shall be paid to and be the sole property of Tenant, and Landlord waives and relinquishes any rights to such award. 

(c) If during the term a part of the Premises shall be taken and this Lease is not terminated pursuant to subsection (b), any
compensation and damages that may be awarded as the result of any such taking shall be paid to and be the sole property of Tenant and Landlord waives and relinquishes any rights to such award. 

(d) Landlord shall not make any voluntary settlement with the condemning authority in any condemnation proceedings, nor convey or agree
to convey the whole or any portion of, or interest in, the Premises to such authority in lieu of condemnation, without first obtaining the written consent of Tenant and any Mortgagee. Tenant shall have the right to negotiate with the condemning
authority with respect 

  
 4 








 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 to the Premises, but shall not make any voluntary settlement with the condemning authority, nor convey or agree to convey the whole or any portion of the Premises to such authority in lieu of condemnation
(subject however to the provisions of Section 15 of this Lease), without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord. Tenant may, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, join in any condemnation proceeding as it affects the Premises.

 SECTION 15. Easements, Restrictions and Highway Alignment. Tenant shall have the right to enter into easements,
restrictions and other agreements as Tenant deems necessary or desirable to service, use and occupy the Premises and Landlord covenants and agrees to consent thereto, without compensation therefor, and to execute any and all easements, documents,
agreements and instruments, and to take all other actions requested by Tenant in order to effectuate the same, all at Tenant’s cost and expense. Landlord further covenants and agrees, upon request of Tenant, to convey without compensation
therefor, portions of the Premises, for highway or roadway purposes, to the State of Ohio or any other appropriate governmental body. 
 SECTION 16. Leasehold Mortgages. Tenant, and its successors and assigns may, at any time and from time to time, without Landlord’s consent, mortgage Tenant’s interests in this Lease and
Tenant’s interest in the Premises, or any part thereof, and any sublease(s) under one or more leasehold mortgage(s) (whether one or more than one, “Mortgage(s)”) and assign this Lease and all of Tenant’s rights hereunder,
or any part thereof, including, without limitation, Tenant’s obligation to purchase the Premises as set forth in Section 35 hereof, and any sublease(s), as collateral security for such Mortgage(s). If Tenant and/or Tenant’s successors
and assigns shall mortgage this leasehold, or any part or parts thereof, and if the holder(s) of such Mortgage(s) (hereinafter “Mortgagee”) shall deliver to Landlord a copy thereof, together with written notice specifying the name
and address of the Mortgagee and the pertinent recording data with respect to such Mortgage(s), Landlord agrees that so long as any such Mortgage(s) shall remain unsatisfied of record or until written notice of satisfaction is given by the holder(s)
to Landlord, whichever shall first occur, the following provisions shall apply, notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary: 
 (a) There shall be no cancellation, surrender or modification of this Lease by joint action of Landlord and Tenant without the prior consent in writing of such Mortgagee(s). 

(b) Landlord shall, upon serving Tenant with any notice of default, simultaneously serve a copy of such notice upon the holder(s) of such
Mortgage(s). The Mortgagee(s) shall thereupon have the same period provided to Tenant hereunder, after service of such notice upon it, to remedy or cause to be remedied the defaults, and Landlord shall accept such performance by or at the
instigation of such Mortgagee(s) as if the same had been done by Tenant. 
 (c) If any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined)
shall occur which, pursuant to this Lease, entitles Landlord to terminate this Lease, and if, before the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date of service of notice of termination upon such Mortgagee(s), such Mortgagee(s) shall have
notified Landlord of its desire to nullify such notice and shall have paid to Landlord all Rent and other payments required under this Lease, and then in default, and shall have complied or shall commence the work of complying with all of the other
requirements of this Lease, if any, which are then in default, and shall prosecute the same to completion with reasonable diligence, then in such event Landlord shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease and any notice of termination theretofore
given shall be void and of no effect. 

  
 5 








 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 (d) If Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease due to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee(s) shall not only have the right to nullify any notice of termination by curing such
default, as aforesaid, but shall also have the right to postpone and extend the specified date for the termination of this Lease as fixed by Landlord in its notice of termination, for a period of not more than six (6) months, provided that such
Mortgagee shall cure or cause to be cured any then existing defaults within thirty (30) days and meanwhile pay Rent and comply with and perform all of the other terms, conditions and provisions of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be complied
with and performed, other than past non-monetary defaults, and provided further that the Mortgagee(s) shall take steps to acquire or sell Tenant’s interest in this Lease by foreclosure the Mortgage(s) or otherwise and shall prosecute the same
to completion with all due diligence. If, at the end of said six (6) month period, the Mortgagee(s) shall be actively engaged in steps to acquire or sell Tenant’s interest under this Lease, the time of said Mortgagee to comply with the
provisions hereof shall be extended for such period as shall be reasonably necessary to complete such steps with reasonable diligence and continuity. 
 (e) Landlord agrees that in the event of termination of this Lease by reason of any Event of Default, or due to any order in bankruptcy or receivership or due to any other action, Landlord shall enter
into a new lease of the Premises with the Mortgagee(s) or its nominee(s), for the remainder of the term, effective as of the date of such termination, at the Rent and upon the terms, provisions, covenants and agreements as herein contained and
subject only to the same conditions of title as this Lease is subject to on the date of the execution hereof, and to the rights, if any, of any parties then in possession of any part of the Premises. 

(f) A Mortgagee may foreclose upon a Mortgage and after such foreclosure the Tenant’s interest in this Lease may be transferred to
Mortgagee or a third party and thereafter further transferred to other third parties. 
 (g) Nothing herein contained shall
require any Mortgagee(s) or its nominee(s) to cure any default of Tenant which cannot be reasonably cured by such Mortgagee(s). 

(h) Landlord agrees promptly after submission to execute, acknowledge and deliver any agreements modifying this Lease requested by any
Mortgagee(s), provided that such modification does not materially decrease Tenant’s obligations or materially decrease Landlord’s rights under this Lease. 
 (i) Landlord shall, at any time and from time to time, upon request, execute, acknowledge and deliver to each Mortgagee(s), an agreement prepared at the cost and expense of Tenant, in form satisfactory to
such Mortgagee(s), between Landlord, Tenant and Mortgagee(s), confirming all of the provisions of this Section and containing such other protections and rights of the Mortgagee as may be reasonably requested by Tenant provided any request of Tenant
does not materially adversely alter or affect the interests of Landlord in the Premises and under this Lease. The term “Mortgage” whenever used herein shall include whatever security instruments are used by the Mortgagee(s), such
as, without limitation, mortgages, assignments of leases, financing statements, security agreements and other documentation requested by the Mortgage(s). 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the only interest in the Premises that will be subject to a lien of any lender or any other party to secure
indebtedness of Tenant (“Third Party Lien”) will be Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises and all improvements thereon. Nothing herein shall be construed so as to imply any obligation upon Landlord to subject its fee simple
interest in the Premises to a lien, other than the mortgage lien given to Tenant to secure amounts owed to Tenant by Landlord under the Premises Purchase Promissory Note. 

  
 6 








 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 SECTION 17. Performance by Subtenant or Mortgagee. Any act required to be performed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease may be performed by any sublessee of Tenant or by any Mortgagee(s) and the
performance of such act shall be deemed to be performance by Tenant and shall be acceptable as Tenant’s act by Landlord. 

SECTION 18. Quiet Enjoyment; Warranties and Representations. 

(a) Tenant, upon paying the Rent and all other sums and charges to be paid by it as herein provided, and observing and keeping all
covenants, warranties, agreements and conditions of this Lease on its part to be kept, shall quietly have and enjoy the Premises during the term of this Lease, without hindrance or molestation by anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord.

 (b) Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that: 

(i) Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord is acquiring fee simple title to the Premises, subject only
to the Permitted Encumbrances (as hereinafter defined) and has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Lease and to carry out and perform all covenants to be performed by it hereunder. 

(ii) On the Commencement Date, sole and undisturbed physical possession of the entire Premises will be delivered to Tenant free and clear
of all liens, defects in title, encumbrances, restrictions, agreements, easements, tenancies and violations of law except for any mortgage granted by Landlord to Tenant and those listed on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Permitted
Encumbrances”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Premises is subject to or encumbered by any lien, encumbrance, restriction, agreement, easement, tenancy or violations of law as the result of any action of Landlord
taken at the request of Tenant, any such encumbrance shall be deemed a Permitted Encumbrance and deemed set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. 
 SECTION 19. Defaults. 
 (a) In the event any one or more of the following
events shall have occurred and shall not have been remedied as hereinafter provided, Tenant shall be deemed to be in default under this Lease (an “Event of Default”): (1) Tenant’s failure to pay any Rent when the same
shall be due and payable and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of notice in writing from Landlord specifying in detail the nature of such failure; or (2) Tenant’s failure to
perform any of the other covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be kept or performed and the continuance of such failure without curing the same for a period of sixty (60) days after receipt by Tenant of
notice in writing from Landlord specifying in detail the nature of such failure and Tenant does not cure said failure as provided in subsection (b) of this Section. Simultaneously with the sending of the notices to Tenant, Landlord shall send
copies of such notices to any sublessee(s) of the Premises or portions thereof that Tenant may have selected and notified Landlord thereof, in writing, from time to time, any Mortgagees and any additional persons or parties having an interest in the
Premises that Tenant may have selected and notified Landlord thereof, in writing, from time to time. The curing of any default(s) within the above time limits by any of the aforesaid parties or combination thereof, shall constitute a curing of any
default(s) hereunder with like effect as if Tenant had cured same hereunder and no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred. 

  
 7 








 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 (b) In the event that Landlord gives notice of a default under clause (a)(2) above which is of non-monetary nature and of a nature that it cannot be cured within such sixty (60) day period, no Event
of Default shall be deemed to have occurred so long as Tenant, after receiving such notice, proceeds to cure the default as soon as reasonably possible and continues to take steps necessary to complete the same within a period of time which, under
all prevailing circumstances, shall be reasonable. Except for an Event of Default described in Section 19 (a), clause (1) above, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred if and so long as Tenant shall be so proceeding to cure
the same in good faith or be delayed in or prevented from curing the same by any item of force majeure. 
 (c) If an Event of
Default occurs, Landlord, as its sole and exclusive remedy, and to the exclusion of any other remedy, may terminate this Lease and reenter the Premises by judicial order and recover possession thereof in the manner prescribed by statute. In case of
any such Event of Default and reentry, Rent shall be due only up to the time of such reentry. 
 SECTION 20. Waivers.
Failure of Landlord or Tenant to object to any act or omission on the part of the other party, no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be deemed to be a waiver by said party of any of its rights hereunder. No waiver by Landlord or Tenant
at any time, express or implied, of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision of this Lease or a consent to any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. No acceptance by
Landlord of any partial payment shall constitute an accord or satisfaction but shall only be deemed a partial payment on account. 
 SECTION 21. Limitation of Liability. Subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth and notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Lease (each and every term, covenant, condition
and provision of this Lease being hereby made specifically subject to the provisions of this Section) and regardless of whether Tenant or any successor in interest of Tenant shall be one or more Mortgagee(s), or an individual, joint venture, tenancy
in common, firm, corporation or partnership, it is specifically understood and agreed that there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of Tenant or its successors or assigns, or on the part of their officers, directors, employees,
members, stockholders, partners or others, with respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, and Landlord shall look solely to the equity of Tenant, Mortgagee(s) or such successor in interest in the leasehold estate of Tenant
in the Premises for the satisfaction of each and every remedy of Landlord in the event of any breach by Tenant or by such successor in interest of any of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, such exculpation
of personal liability to be absolute and without any exception whatsoever.

SECTION 28. Memorandum of Lease. Simultaneously with its execution of this Lease, Landlord shall execute and deliver to Tenant the
memorandum of lease in the form of Exhibit “C” attached hereto, which Tenant may record. 
 SECTION 29.
Interpretation. The singular shall include the plural, and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders, and vice versa, as the context shall require. The section headings used herein are for reference and convenience
only, and shall not enter into the interpretation hereof. This Lease may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The terms “Landlord”

 SECTION 34. Lease to Constitute a Single Land Purchase Transaction For Income Tax Purposes. 

  
 10 









 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 

Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord is acquiring the Premises from the seller thereof
(“Land Seller”) and Tenant is advancing to Landlord an amount sufficient to pay the sum of (i) the purchase price for the Premises, (ii) all brokers’ commissions and fees required to be paid in connection with such
purchase, and (iii) all other closing costs of Landlord due and payable in connection with Landlord’s purchase of the Premises (such aggregate amount hereafter being referred to as the “Property Acquisition Funds”). This
advance of the Property Acquisition Funds is reflected in a promissory note of even date herewith being delivered by Landlord to Tenant in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Premises Purchase Promissory
Note”), which Premises Purchase Promissory Note is secured by a mortgage on the Premises is the form of Exhibit E or other form which is agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. The Premises Purchase Promissory Note does not provide for
the payment of interest by Landlord to Tenant for so long as the indebtedness reflected thereby is outstanding. Pursuant to the terms of Section 35 below, Tenant will have the obligation, under the circumstances described therein, to acquire
fee title to the Premises from Landlord. The parties intend that the purchase and resale of the Premises described in this Section 34 be interpreted as a single land purchase transaction by Tenant only for federal, state and local income tax
purposes pursuant to which (i) the advance of the Property Acquisition Funds in exchange for the Premises Purchase Promissory Note, the purchase of the Premises by Landlord from the Land Seller, this Lease, and the obligation of Landlord to
sell and Tenant to buy the Premises as reflected in Section 35 of this Lease, is treated as (a) the purchase of the Premises by Tenant from the Land Seller with Tenant as beneficial owner of the Premises, and (b) the retention of
title to the Premises by Landlord as an arrangement to provide financial incentive to Tenant to make payments to Landlord under the Note, (ii) the payment of any Additional Rent after a payment default under the Note as described in
Section 3(b) of this Lease will be treated as a reduction in the interest obligations as provided under the Note, and (iii) the Premises Purchase Promissory Note is not treated as a further security arrangement to secure payment to
Landlord of the Note, and not as debt (all the foregoing, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The parties agree to treat and report the transactions under this Lease for federal, state and local income tax purposes consistent with the
Intended Tax Treatment. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant acknowledges and agrees, except for the Intended
Tax Treatment, as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	for all purposes of state and federal law applying or related to interests and rights in and to real property, rights and interests of parties in any receivership
proceeding, rights of debtors and creditors under any federal bankruptcy law and general rights of debtors and creditors (i) Landlord shall be treated and characterized as owner of the fee title interest in and to the Premises,
(ii) Landlord shall be treated and characterized as a landlord of and with respect to this Lease , and (iii) this Lease shall be treated or characterized as a lease of real property; and 


 

	 	(b)	under no circumstances may Tenant or any other party, including but not limited to any successor, transferee, assignee, creditor, receiver or trustee of Tenant, claim
that this Lease is or constitutes a mortgage, a security interest in real estate, or a financing vehicle. 

 None of the foregoing
provisions of this Section 34 shall be construed or applied to prevent Tenant from having the obligation to purchase the Premises or receive conveyance of the Premises pursuant to Section 35 below, including in a circumstance where
liability under the Premises Purchase Promissory Note is extinguished in a bankruptcy or receivership proceeding. 

  
 11 









 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 SECTION 35. Obligation to Sell and Purchase the Premises. 
 (a)
Obligation. Landlord shall sell, and Tenant shall purchase, the fee simple interest in the Premises, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 35, upon the occurrence of either of the following events (the “Purchase
Obligation”): (i) the payment in full of the Note; or (ii) the occurrence of a Guaranty Event (as defined in the Note) under the Note. The date of the occurrence of the event that triggers the Purchase Obligation is hereinafter
the “Trigger Date”. In the event that either Landlord or Tenant shall default in its obligations under this Section 35, the non-defaulting party shall have the right, in additional to any other rights and remedies allowed at
law or in equity, to seek specific performance of the obligations of the defaulting party. 
 (b) Purchase Price. The
purchase price for the Premises shall be equal to the amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Premises Purchase Promissory Note. The purchase price shall be paid at Closing (as hereinafter defined) by Tenant’s cancellation of the
Premises Purchase Promissory Note and delivery to Landlord by Tenant of a release of all of its liabilities and obligations thereunder. Rent shall be prorated as of the date of closing. If liability for the principal amount of the Premises Purchase
Promissory Note is extinguished in a bankruptcy or receivership proceeding, the purchase price to be paid at Closing by Tenant shall be One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) cash. 
 (c) Landlord Transfers. In the event that Landlord sells, transfers or otherwise conveys the Premises or any part thereof to a third party, then such sale, transfer or conveyance shall be subject
to this Lease, including the terms of this Section, and Landlord’s buyer, assignee or transferee shall be required to agree, in writing, to accept the obligations of Landlord under this Lease, and Landlord shall assign to such buyer, and such
buyer shall assume, all of Landlord’s interest in the Premises Purchase Promissory Note. 
 (d) Title Matters. From
and after the date hereof, Landlord shall not permit any mortgages, easements, leases, contracts or other encumbrances, other than the Permitted Encumbrances, to affect the Premises without the prior written consent of Tenant. The Premises shall be
conveyed to Tenant or its designee or assignee at the Closing pursuant to a limited warranty deed, free and clear of all claims, liens, mortgages, security interests, zoning changes and other encumbrances, excepting only the Permitted Encumbrances,
those matters which have been approved in writing by Tenant, and real estate taxes. 
 (e) Closing. Unless otherwise
agreed in writing by Landlord and Tenant, the transactions contemplated hereby shall be closed within thirty (30) days after the Trigger Date (the “Closing”). There shall be no proration of real estate taxes, and Tenant shall
be responsible for all real estate taxes due after Closing. Tenant shall pay for all conveyance and transfer fees, escrow and closing fees, costs of title insurance, surveys and recording the deed and other documents. Tenant and Landlord shall each
pay their own legal fees. At Closing, Landlord shall execute a seller’s title affidavit, settlement statement, affidavits requested by the title company and other documents as are customarily executed and delivered at a commercial real estate
closing in the vicinity of the Premises.

 This
Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Ground Lease, dated             , 201    , by and among Maker and
Payee (the “Lease”) and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease, which are, by this reference, incorporated herein and made a part hereof. Capitalized terms used in this Note without definition shall have the respective
meanings set forth in the Lease. This Note is secured by the real estate of Maker described in Exhibit A attached hereto, and is not subject to recourse against any member, employee or manager of Maker. 

 

	1.	PAYMENTS 

  

	 	1.1	PRINCIPAL 

 The outstanding
Principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable on the date of the termination or expiration of the Lease. 
  

	 	1.2	INTEREST 

 The Note shall not
bear interest. 
  

	 	1.3	PREPAYMENT 

 Maker may not prepay
all or any portion of the outstanding Principal balance of this Note, provided that Payee shall surrender and cancel this Note upon Maker’s conveyance of the real property demised under the Lease to Payee or its designee in accordance with the
terms of the Lease. 
  

	 	1.4	MANNER OF PAYMENT 

 All sums paid
by Maker to Payee with respect to this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Payee in writing. If any payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next

Ohio. 

  








 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 

 

	2.	DEFAULTS 

  

	 	2.1	EVENTS OF DEFAULT 

 The
occurrence of any one or more of the following events with respect to Maker shall constitute an event of default hereunder (“Event of Default”): 
 (a) If Maker shall fail to perform its obligations under this Note or the Lease and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Payee notifies Maker thereof in writing. 

(b) If, pursuant to or within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law relating to insolvency
or relief of debtors, Maker shall (i) commence a voluntary case or proceeding; (ii) consent to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consent to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, assignee,
liquidator or similar official; (iv) make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (v) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due. 

 

	 	2.2	REMEDIES 

 Upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default hereunder (unless all Events of Default have been cured or waived by Payee), Payee may, at its option, (i) by written notice to Maker, declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued
interest thereon, immediately due and payable regardless of any prior forbearance and (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under applicable law, including, without limitation, the right to collect from Maker all sums
due under this Note. Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Payee in connection with Payee’s exercise of any or all of its rights and remedies under this Note, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees. 
  

	3.	ASSIGNMENT 

 Neither Payee nor
Maker may assign its interest in this Note without the prior written consent of the other, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void ab initio; provided, however (i) that Maker may assign its interest in this Note without
Payee’s consent to any person or entity that simultaneously acquires Maker’s fee interest in the premises demised under the Lease and Maker’s interest as landlord under the Lease; and (ii) Payee may assign its interest in this
Note without maker’s consent to any person or entity that simultaneously acquires Payee’s interest as tenant under the Lease. 
  

	4.	MISCELLANEOUS 

  

	 	4.1	WAIVER 

 The rights and remedies
of Payee under this Note shall be cumulative and not alternative. No waiver by Payee of any right or remedy under this Note shall be effective unless in a writing signed by Payee. Neither the failure nor any delay in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Note will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege by Payee will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or
the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right of Payee arising out of this Note can be discharged by Payee, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim
or right unless in a writing signed by Payee; (b) no waiver 







 EXHIBIT 2.7(a)(vii) 
 that may be given by Payee will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on Maker will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of Maker
or of the right of Payee to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Note. Maker hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor and protest. 

 

	 	4.2	NOTICES 

 Any notice required or
permitted to be given hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 24 of the Lease. 
  

	 	4.3	SEVERABILITY 

 If any provision
in this Note is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Note will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Note held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain
in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable. 
  

	 	4.4	GOVERNING LAW 

 This Note will be
governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Ohio. 
  

	 	4.5	PARTIES IN INTEREST 

 This Note
shall not be assigned or transferred by Payee without the express prior written consent of Maker. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Note will be binding in all respects upon Maker and inure to the benefit of Payee and its successors and
assigns.

(a) payment of the Obligations will be subordinate to the payment of the Senior Obligations (as hereinafter defined), and for purposes of
clarity, the parties agree that this subsection (a) shall in no way constitute or be construed to be a waiver of Secured Party’s ability to declare a Maker Payment Default (as defined in the Note); 

(b) the security interests granted by Debtor to the Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to secure the payment and
performance of the Obligations will be subject to and subordinate in priority to the security interests and liens granted by Debtor to the Senior Lender to secure the payment and performance of the Senior Obligations;

and interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note will be permitted by the Senior Lender;

days after the date on which Secured Party obtains a Judgment. 
 Debtor agrees that Secured Party’s election to abide by,
and not deviate from, the terms set forth above in Secured Party’s negotiations with the Senior Lender regarding the terms of the Subordination Agreement shall not constitute a breach by Secured Party of any duty to act in good faith or in a
commercially reasonable manner. 
 Secured Party also agrees and acknowledges that, at Debtor’s election at any time (such
election, a “Guaranty Event”), Debtor may elect to terminate this Agreement and all security interests granted to Secured Party pursuant hereunder, to trigger the Purchase Obligation (as defined in the Ground Lease) under the Ground Lease,

true and lawful attorney-in-fact after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default to act with respect to the Collateral in any transaction, legal proceeding, or other matter in which Secured Party is acting pursuant to this
Agreement. Debtor (a) specifically authorizes Secured Party, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period), to act as its true and lawful attorney–in—fact to
execute and/or authenticate on its behalf and/or file financing statements reflecting its security interest in the Collateral and any other documents necessary or desirable to perfect or otherwise further the security interest granted herein;
(b) specifically authorizes Secured Party, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to act as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate any third party agreements or assignments to grant
Secured Party control over the Collateral, including third party agreements between the Debtor, Secured Party, and depository institutions, securities intermediaries, and issuers of letters of credit or other supporting obligations which third party
agreements direct the third party to accept direction from Secured Party regarding the maintenance and disposition of the Collateral and the products and proceeds thereof, such power of attorney to be exercised after the occurrence of an Event of
Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period) or after Debtor’s failure to so execute and/or authenticate after Secured Party’s request therefor; and (c) specifically authorizes Secured Party, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period), to issue, without further consent of Debtor, all (i) instructions to any bank at which any deposit account of Debtor is maintained with respect
to all existing or future funds held in such deposit account and (ii) exclusive entitlement orders to all securities intermediaries with respect to all existing or future investment property of Debtor held in any securities account maintained
by such securities intermediary. 
 Debtor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. 
 The powers conferred upon
Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise such powers and neither Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
responsible to Debtor for any act or failure to act, except for Secured Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 7. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period), Secured Party shall have, and have the right to
exercise, all rights, powers and remedies set forth in this Agreement and any other agreements, documents or instruments executed in connection herewith or the transactions evidenced hereby, and in any other written agreement or instrument relating
to any of the Obligations or any security therefor, as a secured party under the Ohio UCC, or as otherwise provided at law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party may, at its option, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period), declare all Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and all of Obligations then owing to Secured Party shall be automatically due and payable
in full without demand, notice or further action of any kind required on the part of 

  
 10 









 
Secured Party. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (following the lapse of any applicable cure period), Secured Party shall have the following
rights and remedies: 
 (a) Sale of Collateral. Subject to the rights of the Senior Lender, Secured Party may sell any or
all of the Collateral at public or private sale, upon such terms and conditions as Secured Party may deem proper, and Secured Party may purchase any or all of the Collateral at any such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before selling any
Collateral the operation of which requires a Gaming License to any Person which does not have such license, Secured Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell such Collateral to a Person which holds the applicable Gaming License. Debtor
acknowledges that Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of all or any portion of the Collateral because of certain legal and/or practical restrictions and provisions which may be applicable to the Collateral and, therefore, may be
compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of offerees and purchasers. Secured Party may apply the net proceeds, after deducting all costs, expenses, including attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees, incurred or paid
at any time in the collection, protection and sale of the Collateral and the Obligations, to the payment of the Obligations, returning the excess proceeds, if any, to Debtor. Debtor shall remain liable for any amount remaining unpaid after such
application. Any notification of intended disposition of the Collateral required by law shall be conclusively deemed reasonably and properly given if given by Secured Party at least ten (10) calendar days before the date of such disposition.
Debtor hereby confirms, approves and ratifies all acts and deeds of Secured Party relating to the foregoing, and each part thereof, and expressly waives any and all claims of any nature, kind or description which it has or may hereafter have against
Secured Party or its representatives by reason of taking, selling or collecting any portion of the Collateral in accordance herewith. Debtor consents to releases of the Collateral at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default
(following the lapse of any applicable cure period), and to sales of the Collateral in groups, parcels or portions, or as an entirety, as Secured Party shall deem appropriate. 
 (b) UCC Rights. In addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights and remedies expressly granted in this Agreement, Secured Party also may exercise, from time to time, any and all rights and remedies
available to it under the UCC or under any other applicable law. 
 8. Indemnification; Expenses. 

(a) Indemnification. Debtor absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally hereby agrees to and does hereby indemnify and hold
harmless Secured Party against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, causes of action, damages, losses, settlement payments, obligations, costs, expenses and all other liabilities whatsoever (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”)
which shall at any time or times be incurred or sustained by Secured Party or by any of its respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates or agents on account or in relation to, or in any way in connection with,
any of the arrangements or transactions contemplated by, associated with, arising out of, or ancillary to this Agreement or the Collateral, whether or not all or any of the transactions contemplated by, associated with or ancillary to this Agreement
are ultimately consummated; provided, however, that Debtor will not be obligated to indemnify an indemnified party in accordance with this Section 8(a) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities resulted from a breach by such indemnified party
of its express

 13

knowing, voluntary and bargained agreement between the parties irrevocably to waive any objections to venue or to convenience of forum. Process in any proceeding referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9(j) may be served on any party
anywhere in the world. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING

(k) Termination. This Agreement will terminate upon the full performance, payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations. Upon
such termination, Secured Party shall, at Debtor’s expense, promptly execute and deliver to Debtor proper documentation to release the liens on and security interests in the Collateral or similar instrument of re-conveyance prepared by Secured
Party, and Secured Party shall duly deliver to Debtor such Collateral as has been released and is in the possession of Secured Party. 
 (l) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided in this Agreement, are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Exercise of one or more remedy(ies) by Secured Party does not
require that all or any other remedy(ies) be exercised and does not preclude later exercise of the same remedy. 
 (m)
Governing Document. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Note then the provisions of the Note shall govern.

 Exhibit 2.7(b)(iii) 

NON-NEGOTIABLE PROMISSORY NOTE 
 $50,000,000.00 
 Columbus, Ohio 

            , 2012 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MIAMI VALLEY GAMING & RACING, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Maker”),
promises to pay to LEBANON TROTTING CLUB, INC., an Ohio corporation (“LTC”), and MIAMI VALLEY TROTTING, INC., an Ohio corporation (“MVT”) (collectively “Payee”), the principal sum of FIFTY
MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($50,000,000.00) (the “Initial Principal”), plus interest as provided herein and all other charges herein provided, payable in cash, at the rates and in the manner hereinafter set forth. 

The Initial Principal of this Note shall be reduced by payments to Payee as herein provided. The outstanding and unpaid balance of the
Initial Principal is referred to herein as the “Principal”. 
 This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to
and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated March 1, 2012, by and among Maker, Payee and Seller’s Representatives (the “Agreement”) and is subject to the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, which are, by this reference, incorporated herein and made a part hereof. Capitalized terms used in this Note without definition herein shall have the respective definitions thereof as set forth in the Agreement. This Note is secured by a
lien as described and provided in an agreement (the “Security Agreement”) executed on the date hereof. 
 For purposes
hereof, “Obligation” shall mean each and every sum or amount that Maker is obligated to pay under this Note as Principal, Base Interest, Default Interest, and “Obligations” shall mean more than one Obligation. 

 

	1.	PAYMENTS 

 1.1
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST 
 Except as hereinafter provided, the Principal of this Note and Base Interest (hereinafter defined)
thereon shall be due and payable in twenty four (24) equal consecutive quarterly payments of $2,083,333 of Principal and a sum payable along with such quarterly payment of Principal equal to the Base Interest on the then outstanding Principal
(each such payment a “Periodic Payment”) with the first Periodic Payment due and payable on the date that is ninety-one (91) days after the date on which the New Facility is opened to the general public (“Commencement
Date”). Each subsequent Periodic Payment shall be due and payable on the date that is 3 months to the date after the preceding Periodic Payment until all Periodic Payments have been made in full. The unpaid and outstanding balance of the
Principal shall bear interest (“Base Interest”) at the fixed rate of 5% per annum, calculated on a 365-day per annum period, paid in arrears, which shall accrue from the Commencement Date, and shall be due and payable quarterly
together with each Periodic Payment. 

  
 1 








 In addition, any payments of “Additional Rent” (as defined in the “Ground
Lease”, as hereinafter defined) made by the Maker to Warren General Property Co., LLC, an Ohio limited partnership, as landlord (the “Landlord”) pursuant to Section 3 of that certain Ground Lease of even date herewith by and
between the Maker, as tenant, and the Landlord (the “Ground Lease”), shall serve to reduce accrued and unpaid interest under the Note at such time as all principal and interest payments on the Note are brought current. Payee acknowledges
that, upon payment by Maker of all amounts required to cure any then-existing payment defaults under the Note, the full amount of all Additional Rent paid under the Ground Lease will be applied to accrued and unpaid interest under the Note.

 All sums received by Payee with respect to any Obligation of this Note shall be applied in the following order of priority:
(a) Base Interest as unpaid and then due under this Note; (b) Default Interest (defined in Section 2 hereof) as unpaid and then due under this Note, and (c) outstanding and unpaid Principal then due under this Note. Each such
payment shall be applied to each Periodic Payment in the order in which such Periodic Payment became due. 
 Payee agrees and
acknowledges that this Note, and the payment of the Obligations evidenced hereby, will be subject to the terms of a subordination agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) to be executed by and between Payee and the Senior Lender (as
defined in the Security Agreement), at the time that the Senior Obligations Documents (as defined in the Security Agreement) are entered into between Maker and the Senior Lender. Payee understands that the terms of the Subordination Agreement will
need to be negotiated between the Senior Lender and Payee, but agrees and covenants that the following terms and conditions will be acceptable to Payee: 
 (a) payment of the Obligations will be subordinate to the payment of the Senior Obligations (as defined in the Security Agreement), and for purposes of clarity, the parties agree that this subsection
(a) shall in no way constitute or be construed to be a waiver of Payee’s ability to declare a Maker Payment Default; 

(b) the security interests granted by Maker to the Payee pursuant to the Security Agreement or otherwise to secure the payment and
performance of the Obligations will be subject to and subordinate in priority to the security interests and liens granted by Maker to the Senior Lender to secure the payment and performance of the Senior Obligations; 

(c) so long as no default in the payment or performance of the Senior Obligations has occurred, regularly scheduled payments of principal
and interest on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note will be permitted by the Senior Lender; 
 (d) upon a default in the
payment or performance of any of the Senior Obligations, 
 (i) payment of the Obligations will be blocked and subject to a
specified standstill period until the earlier of (A) the date on which such default in the Senior Obligations has been fully cured or the Senior Obligations have been paid in full, and (B) 360 days after the date on which Payee obtains a
Judgment (as hereinafter defined) as described in subsection (e) below, and 

  
 2 








 (ii) except to the extent set forth in subsection (e), enforcement or remedial actions by
the Payee to enforce payment of any of the Obligations or any of its rights or remedies under this Note or the Security Agreement will be blocked and subject to a specified standstill period until the earlier of (A) the date on which such
default in the Senior Obligations has been fully cured or the Senior Obligations have been paid in full, and (B) 360 days after the date on which Payee obtains a Judgment; and 

(e) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Maker Payment Default, Payee may obtain a judgment with respect to the
Obligations (a “Judgment”), but collection, enforcement or remedial actions by the Payee to collect or enforce payment thereof or of any Obligation, or any of Payee’s rights or remedies under this Note or the Security Agreement, will
be blocked and subject to a specified standstill period until the earlier of (A) the date on which any default in the Senior Obligations has been fully cured or the Senior Obligations have been paid in full, and (B) 360 days after the date
on which Payee obtains a Judgment. 
 Maker agrees that Payee’s election to abide by, and not deviate from, the terms set
forth above in Payee’s negotiations with the Senior Lender regarding the terms of the Subordination Agreement shall not constitute a breach by Payee of any duty to act in good faith or in a commercially reasonable manner. 

Payee also agrees and acknowledges that, at Maker’s election at any time (such election, a “Guaranty Event”), Maker may
elect to terminate the Security Agreement and all security interests granted to Payee pursuant thereto, to trigger the Purchase Obligation (as defined in the Ground Lease) under the Ground Lease, and to provide Payee with written Guaranties (as
hereinafter defined) of this Note from the owners of each of the members of the Maker, which members are direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Delaware North Companies Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (“DNC”) and of
Churchill Downs Incorporated (“CDI”) (each of DNC and CDI, collectively, the “Parent Companies”, and each, a “Parent Company”). Provided that the Parent Companies directly or indirectly own, collectively, one hundred
percent (100%) of the financial interests or rights in and of Maker, Maker and Payee agree that they shall, within thirty (30) days following the delivery of written notice by Maker to Payee that Maker is electing to trigger the Guaranty
Event, take any and all actions deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by the Maker and Payee to (a) terminate the Security Agreement and Payee’s security interest thereunder, and all other rights and duties of the respective parties
thereunder, and to file a UCC termination or release of any financing statement filed by Payee as secured party thereunder, and return any collateral then held by Payee in its possession as secured party to Maker, (b) close on the Purchase
Obligation, and have Maker, as tenant, together with the lessor under the Ground Lease, proceed with the actions to be taken pursuant to the Purchase Obligation as set forth in the Ground Lease, and (c) confirm Payee’s receipt of the
written Guaranties of the Parent Companies. In connection with the foregoing, the Parent Companies will simultaneously provide Payee with unconditional pro rata guaranties of this Note, with each such Parent Company, as guarantor, guaranteeing the
payment of a pro rata portion of the Obligations evidenced by this Note, based upon the direct and indirect percentage ownership interests of each such Parent Company in the financial interests or rights of Maker, and with the result that payment of
all Obligations evidenced by this Note is severally but not jointly guaranteed by the Parent Companies. For purposes of the foregoing, “Guaranties” means the full and unconditional agreement to pay all Obligations of this Note in
accordance with the terms and provisions of Sections 1.1 and 1.2 hereof. 

  
 3 








 1.2 MANNER OF PAYMENT 

All sums paid by Maker to Payee with respect to the Obligations under this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account designated by Payee in writing. If any Periodic Payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be taken into account in
calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note. “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the State of Ohio. 
 1.3 PREPAYMENT 
 Maker may, without premium or penalty, at any time and from time
to time, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid balance of the Principal of this Note. Any partial prepayments shall be applied to installments of principal in the inverse order of their maturity. 

1.4 CHANGE IN CONTROL 
 Unless Payee shall have consented thereto in writing, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (hereinafter defined) of Maker, the entire outstanding and unpaid balance of the Principal of
this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid Base Interest and Default Interest thereon shall be immediately due and payable without demand by Payee. “Change in Control” means (a) the holders of a majority of the voting rights of
Maker as of the date of execution of the Agreement and/or their respective Affiliates (“Control Persons”) cease to hold a majority of the voting rights of Maker as the result of one or more than one sale, transfer, relinquishment,
delegation (by proxy, power of attorney or otherwise); (b) the sale, transfer or exchange of all or substantially all of the assets of Maker and its subsidiaries, in each case other than to an Affiliate of Maker; or (c) the sale, transfer
or assignment by Maker of (i) any horse racing permit issued or regulated by any department, agency or commission of the state of Ohio and utilized in connection with harness racing at the Raceway Facilities or the New Facility or (ii) any
license or permit that is needed by Maker to operate video lottery terminals as a video lottery terminal licensee at the Raceway Facilities or the New Facility under Chapter 3770 of the Ohio Revised Code, in each case other than to an Affiliate of
Maker. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, any partial or total transfer of voting rights, assets or racing or gaming permits between Members of Maker existing as of the date on which this Note is issued shall not be considered a
“Change of Control.” 
 1.5 RIGHT OF SET OFF 
 Maker shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount due hereunder the amount of any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which Maker may be entitled under the Agreement, as
provided in Section 11.1(b) thereof. Any amount of setoff by Maker to which it is entitled under the Agreement shall be deemed to be, in the amount thereof, a payment of Maker’s Obligations hereunder and shall not be deemed to be a
prepayment under Section 1.3 hereof by Maker. 

  
 4 









	2.	DEFAULT INTEREST 


If an Event of Default (defined in Section 3 below) arises or occurs and is not corrected, eliminated or cured within 30 days after
it arises or occurs, in addition to the Base Interest provided herein there shall be additional interest (“Default Interest”) on the outstanding and unpaid balance of Principal as of the date the Event of Default arose or occurred in the
amount of three percent (3%) per annum. Default Interest shall be charged and shall apply from the date that the Event of Default arose or occurred and shall continue until the outstanding and unpaid Principal then due and owing is paid in
full. 
  

	3.	DEFAULT 

 3.1 Each
of the following events shall be deemed an “Event of Default” hereunder: 
  

	 	(a)	failure by Maker to pay or cause to be paid any Obligation in full as the same shall become due and payable, or within ten (10) days thereafter (a “Maker
Payment Default”); or 

  

	 	(b)	failure to observe or perform any material covenant, agreement or provision contained in the Agreement beyond any applicable grace or cure period; or


  

	 	(c)	a default, if it continues beyond a grace or cure period, by Maker in paying or performing any obligation imposed upon Maker with respect to any indebtedness of Maker
in excess of $500,000.00 (“Material Indebtedness”), regardless if such Material Indebtedness is owed to any lender, vendor, supplier or licensor (including the state of Ohio or any of its agencies, commissions, or departments); or


  

	 	(d)	if Maker shall become involved in financial difficulties, as evidenced by any of the following events: (i) generally not paying debts as they become due;
(ii) making an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the commencement of any similar debt relief proceeding, whether judicial or otherwise; (ii) consenting to or applying for appointment of a trustee, interim trustee, custodian, or
receiver for all or any material portion of any of its property; (iv) voluntary commencement by Maker of any action or proceeding under any other federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, composition, debtor relief, reorganization, or other
similar law, and failure to obtain dismissal or stay of the proceeding within sixty (60) days of its commencement; (v) involuntary commencement of such a proceeding against Maker and entry of either an order of insolvency, composition,
debtor relief, reorganization or other similar order, and failure to obtain dismissal or stay of the proceeding within sixty (60) days of its commencement; or (vi) dissolution or suspension of the corporate charter (except any
administrative dissolution or suspension that is subsequently cured), insolvency, or failure or suspension of the usual business of Maker; or 


  
 5 









	 	(e)	the entry of any judgment or lien against Maker in favor of any third person in excess of $50,000,000.00 which judgment or lien is not satisfied, discharged or bonded
off within sixty (60) days from the date of entry of said judgment or lien and which is not otherwise stayed or the subject of an appeal filed by Maker in connection with same. 


Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all Obligations of and under this Note, as are then outstanding and unpaid, shall
immediately become due and payable, without demand made therefor, and without notice to any person, and Payee shall have all remedies, including as a secured party, under law and equity to enforce its rights under this Note. In addition, any waiver
by Payee’s of any of its rights hereunder, including the imposition of Default Interest and the right to accelerate Maker’s payment of Obligations by declaring the Obligations of this Note immediately due and payable, must be made in
writing and cannot be waived by oral representation or the submission to the Maker of a billing statement. 
  

	4.	SECURITY 

 The
Obligations of the Maker under this Note are secured pursuant to the Security Agreement. 
  

	5.	NON-NEGOTIABILITY 

 This Note is
non-negotiable. Neither Payee nor Maker may assign its rights or obligations under this Note without the prior written consent of the other, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void ab initio. The foregoing
notwithstanding, the parties acknowledge and agree that, other than the issue of negotiability, the provisions of this Note will be interpreted in accordance with Ohio Revised Code Chapter 1303, including, but not limited to, the
official comments and case law interpreting the provisions of said Chapter. The rights of a holder or transferee of this Note are subject to claims or defenses that Maker could assert against Payee. Any claims which Payee has against Maker
under this Note may be asserted by any such holder or transferee. 
  

	6.	TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE 

 Time is of the essence in performing and carrying out all of the provisions in this Note. 
  

	7.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 7.1
The failure of Payee to exercise any right herein provided upon the occurrence of any Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of such right in the event of any continuing or subsequent Event of Default. 

7.2 To the extent permitted by applicable law, Maker hereby waives all relief from any and all appraisement or exemption laws now in
force or hereafter enacted. 

  
 6 








 7.3 Payment of the Obligations and rights of Payee evidenced or created by this Note shall
be the obligations of and binding on any and all others who may at any time, as a successor, purchaser, transferee, assignee, or otherwise, become liable for the payment of any or all Obligations of this Note. 

7.4 Nothing herein contained or in the Agreement shall be construed or so operate as to require Maker, or any person liable for the
payment of any Obligation of this Note, to pay interest in an amount or at a rate greater than the highest rate permissible under applicable law. Should any interest or other charges paid by Maker, or any parties liable for the payment of any
Obligation of this Note, result in the computation or earning of interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable law, then any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby waived by Payee, and all such excess shall be
automatically credited against and in reduction of the outstanding and unpaid balance of Principal. 
 Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein contained, in the event that the interest rate to be charged hereunder ever exceeds the highest rate permissible under applicable law, thereby causing the interest accruing on this Note to be limited to such rate, then any
subsequent reduction in the interest rate to which Maker would otherwise be entitled shall be held in abeyance until the total amount of interest accrued on this Note equals the amount of interest which would have accrued on the Note had the
interest rate not been limited to the highest rate permissible under applicable law. 
 7.5 If any provision or any part of any
provision contained in this Note shall for any reason be held or deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or remaining part of the affected
provision of this Note, and this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or part thereof had never been contained herein and the remaining provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.

 7.6 Demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor or default, protest, notice of protest and diligence in bringing suit
against any party having any liability for payment of the Obligations under this Note are hereby waived by Maker. 
 7.7 If any
legal action, arbitration or other legal proceeding is brought under this Note , in addition to any other relief to which the successful or prevailing party(ies) (the “Prevailing Party”) is entitled, the Prevailing Party shall be entitled
to recover (i) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Prevailing Party in such action, arbitration or proceeding and all related appellate proceedings, including, without limitations, reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraisers’
fees, court costs, notice charges and title insurance charges, and said costs and expenses may be included in any judgment or decree rendered by the presiding authority in each such case. 

7.8 Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing. If mailed by first class United States mail, postage
prepaid, registered or certified with return receipt requested, then such notice shall be effective upon its deposit in the mails. Notice given in any other manner shall be effective only if and when received by the addressee. For
