Holder and Upper Tier Equity Holder shall be jointly and severally liable to
reimburse the Company in an amount (such amount, until reimbursed to the

     The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuers
to authenticate Notes. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an
authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each
reference in this Indenture to authenticating by the Trustee includes
authenticating by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an
Agent to deal with the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers.

     The Issuers, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee may

for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to the
provisions of this Indenture and the Notes with respect to record dates)

                                      -28-

<PAGE>

not such Note is overdue, and neither the Issuers, the Trustee nor any agent of
the Issuers or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     SECTION 2.3 Registrar, Paying Agent and Depositary. The Issuers shall

appoint the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent. The Registrar shall keep a
register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuers may
appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The
term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term "Paying Agent" includes
any additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or
Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee of
the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers
fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the
Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as
Paying Agent or Registrar, except that for purposes of Articles III and VIII and
Sections 4.1, 4.10 and 4.14, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall act as Paying Agent.

     The Issuers shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent
not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the provisions of the
TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate
to such Agent.

each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying
Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all
money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by
the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the
Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee.
The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it
to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other
than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability
for the money delivered to the Trustee. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company acts as Paying Agent (subject to Section 2.3), it shall segregate and
hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by
it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization related to the
Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

     SECTION 2.5 Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form
as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names
and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).
If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at

times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the
Holders, including the aggregate principal amount of Notes held by each such
Holder, and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).

or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such
nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All
Global Notes shall be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes (i) if the
Depositary (A) notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as Depositary for the Global Notes and the Issuers fail to appoint a successor
Depositary within 90 days after receiving such notice or (B) has ceased to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and the Issuers fail to
appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after becoming aware of such
condition; (ii) if the Issuers, at their option, notify the Trustee in writing
that they elect to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes; provided that in no
event shall the Regulation S Temporary Global Note be exchanged by the Issuers
for Definitive Notes other than in accordance with Section 2.6(c)(2); or (iii)
at the request of the Holders, if there shall have occurred and be continuing a
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. Upon the occurrence of
any of the preceding events in (i), (ii) or (iii) above, Definitive Notes shall
be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global
Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in
Sections 2.7 and 2.10. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for,
or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section
2.6 or Sections 2.7 or 2.10, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form
of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another

Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those
set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with
either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of
the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

               (1) Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial
          interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons
          who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the
          same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer
          restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided,
          however, that, prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period,
          transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global
          Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of
          a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). Beneficial interests
          in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take
          delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
          Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be
          required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers
          described in this Section 2.6(b)(1).

               (2) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in

          beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a

          the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing
          the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest
          in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest
          to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in
          accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information
          regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or
          (B) (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant
          given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
          directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an
          amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged

          containing information regarding the Person in whose name such
          Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange
          referred to in (1) above; provided that in no event shall Definitive
          Notes be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests
          in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note other than in accordance
          with Section 2.6(c)(2). Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the
          Issuers in accordance with Section 2.6(f), the requirements of this
          Section 2.6(b)(2) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt
          by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the letter of
          transmittal delivered by the holder of such beneficial interests in
          the Restricted Global Notes. Upon satisfaction of all of the
          requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in
          Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise
          applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the
          principal amount at maturity of the relevant Global Notes pursuant to
          Section 2.6(g).

               (3) Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note. A
          beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred
          to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
          interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies
          with the requirements of Section 2.6(b)(2) above and the Registrar
          receives the following:

                    (A) if the transferee shall take delivery in the form of a
               beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the transferor
               must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit F, including
               the certifications in item (1) thereof; and

                    (B) if the transferee shall take delivery in the form of a

          Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial
          interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any Holder
          thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or
          transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
          beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or
          transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.6(b)(2) above
          and:

               Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights
               Agreement and the Holder of the beneficial interest to be
               transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in
               the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable letter of
               transmittal that (1) it is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule

               Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration Rights
               Agreement;

                    (C) any such transfer is effected by a Broker Dealer
               pursuant to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement in
               accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement; or

                    (D) the Registrar receives the following:

                    (1) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Note
               proposes to exchange such Note for an Unrestricted Definitive
               Note, a certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit G,
               including the certifications in item (1)(d) thereof; or

                    (2) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Note
               proposes to transfer such Note to a Person who shall take
               delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note,
               a certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit F,
               including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

     and, in each such case set forth in this subparagraph (D), if the Registrar
     so requests, an opinion of counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the
     Issuers to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with
     the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein
     and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to
     maintain compliance with the Securities Act..

               (3) Unrestricted Definitive Notes to Unrestricted Definitive
          Notes. A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive Notes may transfer such
          Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an
          Unrestricted Definitive Note. Upon receipt of a request to register
          such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Unrestricted
          Definitive Notes pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof.

     (f) Exchange Offer. Upon the occurrence of the Exchange Offer in accordance
with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuers shall issue and, upon
receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.2, the Trustee
shall authenticate (i) one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interests in
the Restricted Global Notes tendered for acceptance by Persons that certify in
the applicable Letters of Transmittal that (x) they are not affiliates (as
defined in Rule 144) of the Issuers, (y) they are not engaged in, and do not
intend to engage in, and have no arrangement or understanding with any Person to
participate in, a distribution of the Series B Notes to be issued in the
Exchange Offer and (z) they are acquiring the Series B Notes in their ordinary
course of business and (ii) Unrestricted Definitive Notes in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Restricted Definitive
Notes accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer. Concurrently with the
issuance of such Notes, the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount
of the applicable Restricted Global Notes to be reduced accordingly, and the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Persons designated


                                      -39-

<PAGE>

by the Holders of Restricted Global Notes so accepted Unrestricted Global Notes
in the appropriate principal amount.

     (g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all
beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for
Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or
canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.12 hereof. At
any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note
is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in
the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive
Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be
reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the
Trustee or by the Depositary or Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to
reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or
transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a
beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be
increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by
the Trustee or by the Depositary or Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to
reflect such increase.

     (h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

          (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers
     shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and
     Definitive Notes upon the Issuers' order or at the Registrar's request.

          (ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder of a beneficial
     interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any
     registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers may require payment
     of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental
     charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes
     or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant
     to Sections 2.10, 4.10 and 9.5 or Section 5 of the Note).

          (iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of
     or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except
     the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

          (iv) The Issuers and the Registrar shall not be required (A) to issue,
     to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period
     beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any
     selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.2 or Section 3.7 and
     ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register
     the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole
     or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in
     part, (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a
     record date and the next succeeding interest payment date or (D) to
     register the transfer of or to exchange a Note tendered and not withdrawn
     in connection with a Excess Proceeds Offer or a Change of Control Offer.

          (v) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any
     Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers may deem and treat the Person
     in whose name any


                                      -40-

<PAGE>

     Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of
     receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all
     other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be
     affected by notice to the contrary.

          (vi) The Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes
     in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2.

          (vii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel
     required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.6 to
     effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by
     facsimile.

     SECTION 2.7 Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the
Trustee, or the Issuers and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction
of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuers shall issue and the
Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee's requirements for
replacements of Notes are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an
indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment
of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent or
any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced. The Issuers or the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing
a Note.

     Every replacement Note is an obligation of the Issuers and shall be
entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately
with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

     SECTION 2.8 Outstanding Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time are all
the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global
Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those
described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding.

     If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, the replaced Note ceases to
be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

     If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.1,
it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

     Subject to Section 2.9, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the
Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Note; however, Notes held by
the Trustee shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.7.

     SECTION 2.9 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the
required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or
consent, Notes owned by the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers shall be
considered as though not outstanding, except that for purposes of determining
whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver
or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows
to be so owned shall be considered as not outstanding.

     SECTION 2.10 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes,
the Issuers (and the Subsidiary Guarantors) may execute, and upon Company Order
the Trustee shall


                                      -41-

<PAGE>

authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed,
typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise reproduced, in any authorized
denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of
which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes may
determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

     If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuers (and the Subsidiary Guarantors)
shall cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. The
definitive Notes shall be printed, lithographed or engraved, or provided by any
combination thereof, or in any other manner permitted by the rules and
regulations of any principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the
Notes are listed, all as determined by the Officers executing such definitive
Notes. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be
exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the
office or agency maintained by the Issuers for such purpose pursuant to Section
4.2, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or
more temporary Notes, the Issuers (and the Subsidiary Guarantors) shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor the same
aggregate principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

     SECTION 2.11 Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the
Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the
Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or
payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for
registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and
shall retain or destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its normal practices
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) unless the
Issuers direct them to be returned to the Issuers. The Issuers may not issue new
Notes to replace Notes that have been redeemed or paid or that have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. All cancelled Notes held by the
Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in its customary manner.

     SECTION 2.12 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a payment of
interest on the Notes, the Issuers shall pay the defaulted interest in any
lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted
interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date,
which date shall be at the earliest practicable date but in all events at least
five Business Days prior to the payment date, in each case at the rate provided
in the Notes and in Section 4.1. The Issuers shall, with the consent of the
Trustee, fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment
date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or the
Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Issuers) shall mail to the
Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date
and the amount of such interest to be paid.

     SECTION 2.13 Deposit of Moneys. Subject to Section 3.5, prior to 10:00 a.m.
on each date on which the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes are due, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent in
immediately available funds, money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due
on such date in a timely manner that permits the Trustee or the Paying Agent to
remit payment to the Holders on such date.


                                      -42-

<PAGE>

     SECTION 2.14 CUSIP Numbers. The Issuers may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices
of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that, any such notice may
state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers
either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and
that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on
the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee in
writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                   REDEMPTION

     SECTION 3.1 Notices to Trustee. If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes
pursuant to Section 3.7, or are required to redeem Notes pursuant to Section
3.8, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 45 days but not more
than 60 days before a redemption date (except in the case of a Required
Regulatory Redemption requiring less notice), an Officers' Certificate setting
forth (i) the clause of Section 3.7 pursuant to which the redemption shall occur
or if the redemption is required by Section 3.8, (ii) the redemption date, (iii)
the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

     SECTION 3.2 Selection of Notes to be Redeemed. If less than all of the
Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.7 or 3.8, the Trustee shall
select the Notes to be redeemed in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed,
or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such
method as the Trustee deems to be fair and reasonable.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of
Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000.
Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also
apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

     SECTION 3.3 Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60
days before a redemption date (except in the case of a Required Regulatory
Redemption requiring less notice), the Issuer shall provide a notice of
redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed either by mailing a
Notice by First Class Mail to each such Holder's registered address; provided
however that so long as DTC is the only registered Holder of the Notes, such
Notice may be given by e-mailing the notification to DTC at
RedemptionNotification@dtcc.com.

     The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

          (a) the redemption date;

          (b) the redemption price;

          (c) if any Note is being redeemed in part only, the portion of the
     principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption
     date, upon


                                      -43-

<PAGE>

     cancellation of the original Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount
     equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued;

          (d) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

          (e) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying
     Agent to collect the redemption price;

          (f) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption
     payment, interest on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption
     ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

          (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or the section of this Indenture
     pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

          (h) the CUSIP number of the Notes to be redeemed.

     At the Issuers' request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in
the name of the Issuers and at the Issuers' expense; provided that, the Issuers
shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 15 days (unless a shorter period is
acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the date such notice is to be given, an
Officers' Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting
forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding
paragraph.

     SECTION 3.4 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption has
been mailed to the Holders in accordance with Section 3.3 herein, Notes called
for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption
price. At any time prior to the mailing of a notice of redemption to the Holders
pursuant to Section 3.3, the Issuers may withdraw, revoke or rescind any notice
of redemption delivered to the Trustee without any continuing obligation to
redeem the Notes as contemplated by such notice of redemption.

     SECTION 3.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. At or before 10:00 a.m. on the
redemption date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee (to the extent not
already held by the Trustee) or with the Paying Agent money in immediately
available funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest
on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall
return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent
by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price
of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

     Interest on the Notes to be redeemed shall cease to accrue on the
applicable redemption date, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment,
if the Issuers make or deposit the redemption payment in accordance with this
Section 3.5. If any Note called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender
for redemption because of the failure of the Issuers to comply with the
preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the
redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any
interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in
the Notes.


                                      -44-

     SECTION 3.6 Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is
redeemed in part, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for
the Holder at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in principal amount to
the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

     SECTION 3.7 Optional Redemption. (a) Except as set forth in Sections 3.7(b)
and 3.8, the Notes are not redeemable at the Issuers' option prior to October
15, 2008. Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of
the Issuers, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as
percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the applicable date of
redemption, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on October 15 of

</TABLE>

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time or from time to time prior
to October 15, 2008, the Issuers may redeem, at their option, up to 35% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding at a redemption price
of 109.750% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon and Liquidated Damages, if any, through the applicable date of
redemption, with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity

date of closing of such Qualified Equity Offerings and (b) at least 65% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes issued on or after the Issue Date remains
outstanding immediately after giving effect to each such redemption.

     SECTION 3.8 Required Regulatory Redemption. The Notes shall be redeemable
by the Issuers, in whole or in part, at any time upon not less than 20 Business
Days nor more than 60 days' notice (or such earlier date as may be required by
any Gaming Authority) at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
unpaid interest thereon (or, if required by any Gaming Authority, the fair
market value of such Notes, or such other amount as may be required by
applicable law or order of such Gaming Authority) and Liquidated Damages (if
permitted by relevant Gaming Authorities), if any, to the redemption date,
pursuant to a Required Regulatory Redemption. Any Required Regulatory Redemption
shall, except as specifically provided in this Section 3.8, be made in
accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 unless
other procedures are required by any Gaming Authority. In addition, where such
redemption is required because the Holder or beneficial owner of Notes is
required to be found suitable or to otherwise qualify under any Gaming Laws and
is not found suitable or so qualified, the Issuers shall have the right to
require any such Holder or beneficial owner to dispose of its Notes upon 30
days' notice (or such earlier date as may be required by the applicable Gaming
Authority).

     SECTION 3.9 No Mandatory Redemption. The Issuers shall not be required to
make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes (except for a
Required Regulatory Redemption). The Notes shall not have the benefit of any
sinking fund.

                                    COVENANTS

     SECTION 4.1 Payment of Notes. The Issuers shall pay the principal and
premium, if any, of, and interest on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner
provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be
considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, other than the Company or a
Subsidiary of the Company, holds on or before that date money deposited by the
Issuers in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay
all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. Such Paying Agent shall
return to the Issuers, no later than three Business Days following the date of
payment, any money that exceeds such amount of principal, premium, if any, and
interest then due and payable on the Notes. The Issuers shall pay any and all
amounts, including, without limitation, Liquidated Damages, if any, on the dates
and in the manner required under the Registration Rights Agreement.

     The Issuers shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Code) on overdue principal at the rate equal to
1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the
extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Code) on overdue installments of interest
(without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent
lawful.

     SECTION 4.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuers shall maintain an
office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee, Registrar or
co-registrar) in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York where Notes may
be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and
demands to or upon the Issuers in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be
served. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any
time the Issuers shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or
shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee.

     The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that, no
such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their
obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The Issuers shall
give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

     The Issuers hereby designate the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as
one such office or agency of the Issuers in accordance with Section 2.3.

     SECTION 4.3 Reports. (a) Regardless of whether required by the rules and
regulations of the Commission, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuers
will furnish to the Trustee and Holders, within 15 days after either Issuer is
or would have been required to file such with the Commission, (i) all quarterly
and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a
filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if either of the Issuers were


                                      -46-

<PAGE>

required to file such Forms, including for each a "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and, with respect to
the annual information only, a report thereon by the Issuers' independent
certified public accountants and (ii) all information that would be required to
be contained in a filing with the Commission on Form 8-K if either of the
Issuers were required to file such reports. From and after the time either of
the Issuers files a registration statement with the Commission with respect to
the Notes, the Issuers will file such information with the Commission so long as
the Commission will accept such filings.

     Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for
informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is
entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).

     (b) So long as is required for an offer or sale of the Notes to qualify for
an exemption under Rule 144A, the Issuers shall, upon request, provide the
information required by clause (d)(4) thereunder to each Holder and to each
beneficial owner and prospective purchaser of Notes identified by any Holder of
Restricted Securities.

     SECTION 4.4 Compliance Certificate. (a) The Issuers shall deliver to the
Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers'
Certificate (provided that, two of the signatories to such Officers' Certificate
shall be the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or
principal accounting officer of each of the Issuers) stating that a review of
the activities of the Issuers and the Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal
year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to
determine whether each has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their
obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer
signing such certificate, that each of the Issuers and the Subsidiaries has
kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in
this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of
the terms, provisions and conditions hereof or thereof (or, if a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of
Default of which he may have knowledge and what action each is taking or
proposes to take with respect thereto).

     (b) The year-end financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.3
above shall be accompanied by a written statement of the independent public
accountants of the Company (which shall be a firm of established national
reputation reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) that in making the
examination necessary for certification of such financial statements nothing has
come to their attention which would lead them to believe that either the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries has violated any provisions of this Indenture or, if
any such violation has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence
thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly
or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such
violation.

     (c) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Issuers shall deliver

Event of Default or (ii) any event of default under any mortgage, indenture or
instrument referred to in Section 6.1(e), an

Officers' Certificate specifying such Default, Event of Default or other event
of default and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with
respect thereto.

     SECTION 4.5 Taxes. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to,
file all tax returns required to be filed and to pay prior to delinquency all
material taxes, assessments and governmental levies except as contested in good
faith and by appropriate proceedings and for which reserves have been
established in accordance with GAAP.

     SECTION 4.6 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Issuers (and each
Subsidiary Guarantor) covenant (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
neither of them shall at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension, usury
or other law, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that
would prohibit or forgive the payment of all or any portion of the principal of
or interest on the Notes, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of
this Indenture; and each of the Issuers and each Subsidiary Guarantor (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or
advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such
law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law has been enacted.

     SECTION 4.7 Limitation on Restricted Payments. The Company shall not, and
shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

          (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on account of
     any Equity Interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or make any
     other payment to any Excluded Person or Affiliate thereof (other than (A)
     dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than
     Disqualified Capital Stock) of the Company or (B) amounts payable to the
     Company or any Restricted Subsidiary);

          (ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value any
     Equity Interest of the Company or any Affiliate (other than any Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Company) of the Company (other than any such Equity
     Interest owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary);

          (iii) make any principal payment on, or purchase, redeem, defease or
     otherwise acquire or retire for value, any Indebtedness ("Subordinated
     Debt") of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is subordinated in
     right of payment to the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantor's Subsidiary
     Guarantee thereof, as the case may be, prior to any scheduled principal
     payment, sinking fund payment or other payment at the stated maturity
     thereof; or

          (iv) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other
     actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively
     referred to as "Restricted Payments"), unless, at the time of such
     Restricted Payment:

               (a) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
          or would occur as a consequence thereof, and


                                      -48-

<PAGE>

               (b) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment on
          a pro forma basis, the Company could incur at least $1.00 of
          additional Indebtedness under the Interest Coverage Ratio test set
          forth in Section 4.9, and

               (c) such Restricted Payment (the value of any such payment, if
          other than cash, being determined in good faith by the Managers of the
          Company and evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers'
          Certificate delivered to the Trustee), together with the aggregate of
          all other Restricted Payments made on or after the Issue Date
          (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (ii), (vi) (to the
          extent such payments do not reduce Consolidated Net Income), (viii),
          (ix), (x)(A), and, to the extent the Company is given credit for such
          Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to clause (2) of this paragraph, (iii) of
          the next following paragraph and excluding Restricted Payments
          permitted by clauses (i), (iv), (v) and (vii), (x)(B) and (xi) and, to
          the extent the Company is not given credit for such Net Cash Proceeds
          pursuant to clause (2) of this paragraph, (iii) of the next following
          paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of

                    (1) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for
               the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of
               the first fiscal quarter commencing immediately after the Issue
               Date to the end of the Company's most recently ended fiscal
               quarter for which internal financial statements are available at
               the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net
               Income for such period is a deficit, 100% of such deficit), plus

                    (2) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the
               Company as a contribution to its capital from the issuance or
               sale, other than to a Subsidiary, of Equity Interests of the
               Company (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) after the Issue
               Date and on or prior to the time of such Restricted Payment, plus

                    (3) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the
               Company from the issuance or sale, other than to a Subsidiary, of
               any convertible or exchangeable debt security of the Company that
               has been converted or exchanged into Equity Interests of the
               Company (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) pursuant to the
               terms thereof after the Issue Date and on or prior to the time of
               such Restricted Payment (including any additional net cash
               proceeds received by the Company upon such conversion or
               exchange), plus

                    (4) the aggregate Return from Unrestricted Subsidiaries
               after the Issue Date and on or prior to the time of such
               Restricted Payment; provided, that the aggregate Return from
               Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall be excluded with respect to any
               Unrestricted Subsidiary in which a Permitted Investment was made
               pursuant to clause (xiii) of the definition to the extent any
               such return was made while any such Permitted Investment was then
               outstanding.

     accordance with the Interest Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first
     paragraph of Section 4.9;

          (ii) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of

     have been prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture;

          (iii) the redemption, purchase, retirement or other acquisition of any
     Equity Interests of the Company or Indebtedness of the Company or any

          (iv) so long as clause (a) above is satisfied, with respect to each
     taxable year that the Company qualifies as a Flow Through Entity, the

     payment of Permitted Tax Distributions the Company provides an Officers'
     Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company and each
     Subsidiary in respect of which such distributions are being made, qualify
     as Flow Through Entities for Federal income tax purposes and for the states
     in respect of which such distributions are being made and (B) at the time
     of such distribution, the most recent audited financial statements of the
     Company provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.3, provide that the
     Company and each such Subsidiary were treated as Flow Through Entities for
     the period of such financial statements, provided that, the requirement set
     forth in this subclause (B) shall not apply to the extent that such
     Subsidiary that is acquired after the date hereof is not a Flow Through
     Entity on the date of such acquisition but subsequently becomes a Flow
     Through Entity after any period covered by such financial statements;

          (v) the redemption, repurchase or payoff of any Indebtedness of the
     Company or a Restricted Subsidiary with cash proceeds of or in exchange for
     any Refinancing Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to clause
     (i) of the second paragraph of Section 4.9;

          (vi) so long as clauses (a) and (b) above are satisfied, within 60

     consummated in accordance with, Section 4.14 (including the repurchase of
     all Notes validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in connection
     therewith), any purchase or redemption of any Subordinated Debt of the
     Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Disqualified Capital Stock of
     the Company, in each case, required pursuant to the terms thereof as a
     result of the related Change of Control; provided, however, that the
     aggregate consideration to be paid for all such purchases and redemptions
     of such Subordinated Debt and Disqualified Capital Stock shall not exceed
     101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Subordinated Debt or 101% of

          (vii) so long as clause (a) above is satisfied, any employment
     agreement entered into, or any compensation or employee benefits paid to
     employees, in each case, in the ordinary course of business, consistent
     with customary industry practices and not involving the purchase,
     redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity
     Interests of the Company or any Affiliate (other than any Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Company);

          (viii) so long as clause (a) above is satisfied, Cash Flow-Based
     Management Distributions payable under the Management Agreement as in
     effect on the Issue Date, without giving effect to any amendment,
     supplement or modification thereof; provided that, the Interest Coverage
     Ratio for the Company's most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for
     which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the
     date on which such payment is made would have been not less than 1.50 to
     1.0, determined on a pro forma basis, as if such payment had been made
     during such four-quarter period;

          (ix) so long as clause (a) above is satisfied, Revenue-Based
     Management Distributions payable under the Management Agreement as in
     effect on the Issue Date, without giving effect to any amendment,
     supplement or modification thereof; provided that, the Interest Coverage
     Ratio for the Company's most recently ended four full fiscal quarter for
     which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the
     date on which such payment is made would have been not less than 1.25 to
     1.0, determined on a pro forma basis, as if such payment had been made
     during such four-quarter period;

          (x) the redemption and repurchase of any (A) Equity Interests or (B)
     Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, to
     the extent required by any Gaming Authority or, if determined in the good
     faith judgment of the Managers of the Company as evidenced by a resolution
     of the Managers that has been delivered to the Trustee, to prevent the
     loss, or to secure the grant or establishment, of any gaming license or
     other right to conduct lawful gaming operations; and

          (xi) any Unreimbursed Tax Distribution Amounts.

     Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company shall

Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations
required by this Section 4.7 were computed (or, in the case of a Restricted
Payment made pursuant to subsection (iv) of the immediately preceding paragraph,
a summary of such calculations as reasonably determined or estimated in good
faith by the Company), which calculations may be based upon the Company's latest
available financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
not be required to deliver an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee pursuant to
this covenant if any action is taken pursuant to subsection (iii), (v), (vii),
(viii) or (ix) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

     SECTION 4.8 Limitation on Restrictions on Subsidiary Dividends. The Company
shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or
indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any
encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

          (i) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company or
     any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (a) on such Restricted Subsidiary's
     Capital Stock or (b) with respect to any other interest or participation
     in, or measured by, such Restricted Subsidiary's profits, or

          (ii) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries, or

          (iii) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries, or

          (iv) transfer any of its assets to the Company or any of its
     Restricted Subsidiaries, except, with respect to clauses (i) through (iii)
     above, for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason
     of:

               (1) any Credit Facility containing dividend or other payment
          restrictions that are not more restrictive than those contained in the
          documents governing the Credit Facility on the Issue Date;

               (2) this Indenture and the Notes;

               (3) applicable law;

               (4) Acquired Debt; provided that, such encumbrances and
          restrictions are not applicable to any Person, or the properties or
          assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets
          of the Person, so acquired;

               (5) customary non-assignment and net worth provisions of any
          contract, lease or license entered into in the ordinary course of
          business;

               (6) customary restrictions on the transfer of assets subject to a
          Permitted Lien imposed by the holder of such Lien;

               (7) the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Notes
          Indenture, in each case, as in effect on the Issue Date, without
          giving effect to any amendment, supplement or modification thereof;
          and

               (8) the agreements governing permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;
          provided that, such restrictions contained in any agreement governing
          such Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive than those
          contained in any agreements governing the Indebtedness being
          refinanced.

     SECTION 4.9 Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness. The Company shall
not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or
indirectly, (i) create, incur, issue, assume, guaranty or otherwise become
directly or indirectly liable with respect to, contingently or otherwise
(collectively, "incur"), any Indebtedness (including, without limitation,
Acquired Debt) or (ii) issue any Disqualified Capital Stock; provided that, the
Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including, without
limitation, Acquired Debt) and the Company may issue shares of Disqualified
Capital Stock if (x) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at the time of, or would occur after giving effect on a pro forma
basis to such incurrence or issuance, and (y) the Interest Coverage Ratio for
the Company's most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal
financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such
additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Capital Stock is issued
would have been not less than 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis
(including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the
additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Capital Stock had
been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing limitations will not prohibit
the incurrence of:

          (a) Indebtedness under the Credit Facility in an aggregate principal
     amount not to exceed, at any time outstanding, $80,000,000 less the
     aggregate principal amount of repayments and prepayments of such
     indebtedness contemplated by clause (iii)(C)(1) of Section 4.10;

          (b) FF&E Financing in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at
     any time, $20,000,000;

          (c) performance bonds, appeal bonds, surety bonds, insurance
     obligations or bonds and other similar bonds or obligations (including
     Obligations under letters of credit) incurred in the ordinary course of
     business, and any guarantees thereof;

          (d) Hedging Obligations incurred to fix or hedge interest rates with
     respect to any variable or fixed rate Indebtedness otherwise permitted by
     this Indenture; provided that, the notional principal amount of each such
     Hedging Obligation does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness
     to which such Hedging Obligation relates and that such Hedging Obligations
     shall not have been incurred for purposes of speculation;

          (e) Indebtedness outstanding on October 7, 2003 (other than
     Indebtedness under (x) the Credit Facility or (y) the Senior Secured Notes
     and the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, which, in each case, which shall
     not be deemed to be outstanding pursuant to this clause (e));

          (f) Indebtedness incurred by the Company in an aggregate principal
     amount not to exceed, at any time outstanding pursuant to this clause (f),
     $10,000,000;

          (g) any Subsidiary Guarantee or any Subsidiary's guarantee of the
     Indebtedness permitted by clause (e) or (f) above or clause (h) below;


                                      -53-

<PAGE>

          (h) Indebtedness under (i) the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior
     Secured Notes Indenture in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
     $300,000,000 and (ii) the Notes and this Indenture in an aggregate
     principal amount not to exceed $200,000,000;

          (i) Indebtedness issued in exchange for, or the proceeds of which are
     contemporaneously used to extend, refinance, renew, replace, or refund
     (collectively, "Refinance"), Indebtedness incurred pursuant to (A) the
     Interest Coverage Ratio test set forth in the immediately preceding
     paragraph, (B) clauses (e) and (h) above or (C) this clause (i) (the
     "Refinancing Indebtedness"); provided that, (1) the principal amount (or
     accreted value) of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the
     principal amount (or accreted value) of Indebtedness so Refinanced
     (including all accrued and then unpaid interest plus any required premiums
     and out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith),
     (2) the Refinancing Indebtedness has a final scheduled maturity that equals
     or exceeds the final stated maturity, and a Weighted Average Life to
     Maturity that is equal to or greater than the Weighted Average Life to
     Maturity, of the Indebtedness being Refinanced, and (3) the Refinancing
     Indebtedness ranks, in right of payment, no more favorable to the Notes
     than the Indebtedness being Refinanced.

          (j) intercompany Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Wholly
     Owned Subsidiaries for so long as such Indebtedness is held by the Company
     or any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries; provided that if as of any date
     any Person other than the Company or any such Wholly Owned Subsidiary owns
     or holds any such Indebtedness or holds a Lien in respect of such
     Indebtedness (other than a Permitted Lien described in clause (xii), (xiii)
     or (xiv) of the definition thereof), such date shall be deemed the
     incurrence of Indebtedness not constituting Indebtedness permitted under
     this clause (j) by the issuer of such Indebtedness.

     For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.9, in the event
that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the
categories described in clauses (a) through (j) above or is entitled to be
incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.9, the Company will
be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence
in any manner that complies with this Section 4.9 and the Company may, at any
time, change the classification of an item of Indebtedness (or any portion
thereof) to any other clause or to the first paragraph of this Section 4.9;
provided that the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary would be
permitted to incur such item of Indebtedness (or portion thereof) pursuant to
such other clause or the first paragraph of this Section 4.9, as the case may
be, at such time of reclassification. Accrual of interest, the accretion of
accreted value and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of
additional Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock paid-in-kind will not be
deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Disqualified Capital
Stock for purposes of this covenant.

     The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness which by its
terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) is
contractually subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or by the
terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) made contractually
subordinate to the Obligations of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
under (i) in the case of the Company,


                                      -54-

the Notes and this Indenture or (ii) in the case of such Restricted Subsidiary,
its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture, in each case, on substantially
identical terms.

     SECTION 4.10 Limitation on Asset Sales. The Company shall not, and shall
not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Sale unless

          (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration
     at the time of such Asset Sale not less than the fair market value of the
     assets subject to such Asset Sale;

          (ii) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale is in the
     form of (A) cash or Cash Equivalents, (B) liabilities of the Company or any
     Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms
     subordinated to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees) that are assumed by
     the transferee of such assets (provided that, following such Asset Sale
     there is no further recourse to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries
     with respect to such liabilities), or (C) fixed assets or property that, in
     the good faith judgment of the Managers, at the time of such Asset Sale
     will be used in a Related Business of the Company or its Restricted
     Subsidiaries; and

          (iii) within 300 days of such Asset Sale, the Net Proceeds thereof are
     (A) invested (or committed pursuant to a definitive agreement entered into
     by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be invested within
     12 months of the date such commitment is made) in fixed assets or property
     that, in the good faith judgment of the Managers, at the time of such Asset
     Sale will be used in a Related Business of the Company or its Restricted
     Subsidiaries, (B) applied to repay or prepay Indebtedness under Purchase
     Money Obligations incurred in connection with the asset so sold, (C)(1)
     applied to repay or prepay Indebtedness under the Credit Facility and
     permanently reduce the commitment thereunder in the amount of the
     Indebtedness so repaid or (2) applied to repurchase, redeem or defease some
     or all of the Senior Secured Notes in accordance with the terms thereof and
     the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or (D) to the extent not used as
     provided in clauses (A), (B), or (C) applied to make an offer to purchase
     Notes as described below (an "Excess Proceeds Offer"); provided that, the
     Company will not be required to make an Excess Proceeds Offer until the
     amount of Excess Proceeds is greater than $10,000,000.

     The foregoing provisions in (i) or (ii) above shall not apply to an Event
of Loss.

     Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may
temporarily reduce Indebtedness under the Credit Facility or temporarily invest
such Net Proceeds in Cash Equivalents.

     Net Proceeds not invested or applied as set forth in subclause (A), (B) or
(C) of clause (iii) above constitute "Excess Proceeds;" provided, however, that
Net Proceeds that are committed to be invested pursuant to subclause (A) of
clause (iii) above shall not be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds" until the
last day of the 12-month period referred to in such subclause. If the Company
elects, or becomes obligated to make an Excess Proceeds Offer because such
Excess Proceeds exceed $10,000,000, the Issuers shall offer to purchase Notes


                                      -55-

<PAGE>

having an aggregate principal amount equal to the Excess Proceeds (the "Purchase
Amount"), at a purchase price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Liquidated Damages, if
any, to the purchase date. The Issuers must consummate such Excess Proceeds
Offer not later than 30 days after the expiration of the 300-day period
following the Asset Sale that produced such Excess Proceeds; provided, however,
that no Excess Proceeds Offer in respect of any Net Proceeds that constitute
Excess Proceeds by operation of the proviso to the first sentence of this
paragraph shall be required to be consummated until the 30th day following the
last day of the relevant 12-month period that is described in such proviso. If
the aggregate purchase price for the Notes tendered pursuant to the Excess
Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may use the portion of the Excess Proceeds remaining after payment
of such purchase price for general corporate purposes.

     Each Excess Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business
Days and no longer, unless a longer period is required by law (the "Excess
Proceeds Offer Period"). Promptly after the termination of the Excess Proceeds
Offer Period (the "Excess Proceeds Payment Date"), the Issuers shall purchase
and mail or deliver payment for the Purchase Amount for the Notes or portions
thereof tendered, pro rata or by such other method as may be required by law,
or, if less than the Purchase Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered
pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer.

     To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Issuers shall comply with
the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue thereof. The Company
shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or
suffer to exist or become effective any restriction that would impair the
ability of the Issuers to make an Excess Proceeds Offer upon an Asset Sale or,
if such Excess Proceeds Offer is made, to pay for the Notes tendered for
purchase.

     The Issuers shall, no later than 30 days following the expiration of the
12-month period following the Asset Sale that produced Excess Proceeds, commence
the Excess Proceeds Offer by mailing to the Trustee and each Holder, at such
Holder's last registered address, a notice, which shall govern the terms of the
Excess Proceeds Offer, and shall state:

               (1) that the Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this
          Section 4.10, the principal amount of Notes which shall be accepted
          for payment and that all Notes validly tendered shall be accepted for
          payment on a pro rata basis;

               (2) the purchase price and the date of purchase;

               (3) that any Notes not tendered or accepted for payment pursuant
          to the Excess Proceeds Offer shall continue to accrue interest;

               (4) that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the
          purchase price with respect to any Notes tendered, Notes accepted for
          payment pursuant to the


                                      -56-

<PAGE>

          Excess Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Excess
          Proceeds Payment Date;

               (5) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to an
          Excess Proceeds Offer shall be required to surrender their Notes, with
          the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse
          of the Note completed, to the Issuers prior to the close of business
          on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Excess Proceeds
          Payment Date;

               (6) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if
          the Issuers receive, not later than the close of business on the
          second Business Day preceding the Excess Proceeds Payment Date, a
          telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the
          name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes the Holder delivered
          for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his
          election to have such Notes purchased;

               (7) that Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part shall be
          issued Notes representing the unpurchased portion of the Notes
          surrendered; provided that, each Note purchased and each new Note
          issued shall be in principal amount of $1,000 or whole multiples
          thereof; and

               (8) the instructions that Holders must follow in order to tender
          their Notes.

     On or before the Excess Proceeds Payment Date, the Issuers shall (i) accept
for payment on a pro rata basis the Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant
to the Excess Proceeds Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent money
sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Notes or portions thereof so
accepted and (iii) deliver to the Trustee the Notes so accepted, together with
an Officers' Certificate stating that the Notes or portions thereof tendered to
the Issuers are accepted for payment. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to
each Holder of Notes so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase
price of such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to
such Holders new Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered.

     The Issuers shall make a public announcement of the results of the Excess
Proceeds Offer as soon as practicable after the Excess Proceeds Payment Date.
For the purposes of this Section 4.10, the Trustee shall act as the Paying
Agent.

          Affiliate Transactions, have an aggregate value of not more than

          faith and on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the

          obtained in a comparable transaction at such time by the


                                      -57-

<PAGE>

          Company or such Restricted Subsidiary on an arm's-length basis from a
          Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company or such Restricted
          Subsidiary and (b) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
          Officers' Certificate certifying to such effect;

               (ii) Affiliate Transactions that, together with all related
          Affiliate Transactions, have an aggregate value of not more than
          $5,000,000; provided that, (i) a majority of the Managers that are
          disinterested in such transaction (or, if none of the Managers is
          disinterested in such transaction, a representative appointed by the
          Managers to make such determination, which representative, in the
          reasonable good faith judgment of a majority of the Managers, is
          disinterested in the transaction and is qualified to make such
          determination) determine that such transactions are conducted in good
          faith and on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the
          relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been
          obtained in a comparable transaction at such time by the Company or
          such Restricted Subsidiary on an arm's-length basis from a Person that
          is not an Affiliate of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary and
          (ii) prior to entering into such transaction the Company shall have
          delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate certifying to such
          effect; or

               (iii) Affiliate Transactions for which the Company delivers to
          the Trustee an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such
          Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view issued by an
          accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

     Management Distributions and the receipt of the Expense Reimbursements,
     respectively, thereunder;

          (c) the non-exclusive licensing of any service mark or other
     trademarks of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to an Affiliate or

     Subsidiary of the Company.

     SECTION 4.12 Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur,

(including, without limitation, all real, tangible or intangible property) of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, or on any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right
to receive income therefrom, unless (1) if such Lien secures Indebtedness that
is pari passu in right


                                      -58-

<PAGE>

of payment with the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, then the Notes or the
Subsidiary Guarantees, as the case may be, are secured on an equal and ratable
basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligation is no
longer secured by a Lien or (2) if such Lien secures Indebtedness that is
subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, any
such Lien shall be subordinated to a Lien granted to the holders of the Notes or
the Subsidiary Guarantees, as the case may be, in the same collateral as that
securing such Lien to the same extent as such subordinated Indebtedness is

the same may be amended from time to time) and (ii) their (and the
Subsidiaries') rights (charter and statutory), licenses (including gaming and
related licenses) and franchises; provided that, the Issuers shall not be

thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

     SECTION 4.14 Repurchase Upon Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control, the Issuers shall offer to repurchase all of the Notes then
outstanding (the "Change of Control Offer") at a purchase price equal to 101% of

     provisions of this Indenture or any voluntary relinquishment that is, in
     the judgment of the Managers, both desirable in the conduct of the business
     of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and not
     disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect; and

          (i) either of the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor, pursuant to or
     within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Code:

               (i) commences a voluntary case,

               (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
          an involuntary case,

               (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all
          or substantially all of its property,

               (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
          or

               (v) admits in writing its inability to pay debts as the same
          become due; and

          (j) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under
     any Bankruptcy Code that:

               (i) is for relief against either of the Issuers or any Subsidiary
          Guarantor in an involuntary case,

               (ii) appoints a Custodian of either of the Issuers or any
          Subsidiary Guarantor or for all or substantially all of their
          property, or


                                      -64-

<PAGE>

               (iii) orders the liquidation of either of the Issuers or any
          Subsidiary Guarantor,

and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days.

     The Issuers shall, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default,
deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default
and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

     SECTION 6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.1(j) or (k)) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee by written notice to the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Issuers
and the Trustee, may declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest on
all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such declaration the principal and
interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.1(j) or (k) occurs, all outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become
and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the
part of the Trustee or any Holder.

     SECTION 6.3 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy (under this Indenture or
otherwise) to collect the payment of principal or interest on the Notes to
enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

     The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of
the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an
Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of
or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the
extent permitted by law.

     SECTION 6.4 Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of a majority of the aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, by written notice to the
Trustee, may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes (a) waive any existing
Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a
continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the
principal of, any Note or a Default or an Event of Default with respect to any
covenant or provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
the Holder of each outstanding Note affected, and/or (b) rescind an acceleration
and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or
decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal or
interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured
or waived. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     SECTION 6.5 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or
exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse
to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this


                                      -65-

<PAGE>

Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights
of other Holders, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

     SECTION 6.6 Limitation on Suits. A Holder may pursue a remedy with respect
to this Indenture or the Notes only if:

          (a) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing
     Event of Default;

          (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
     outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the
     remedy;

          (c) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the
     Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability
     or expense;

          (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after
     receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of
     indemnity; and

          (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal
     amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction
     inconsistent with the request.

     A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another
Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

     SECTION 6.7 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive
payment of principal and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due
dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected
without the consent of the Holder.

     SECTION 6.8 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.1(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to
recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the
Issuers for the whole amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the
Notes and interest on overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent
lawful, interest on overdue interest and such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel.

     SECTION 6.9 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to
file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial
proceedings relative to the Issuers (or any other obligor under the Notes),
their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to
collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly


                                      -66-

<PAGE>

to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7. To the
extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 7.7 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be
denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and
shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities
and other properties that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in
such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize
the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

     SECTION 6.10 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this
Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

               First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due
          under Section 7.7, including payment of all compensation, expense and
          liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the
          costs and expenses of collection;

               Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for
          principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any
          kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for
          principal and interest, respectively;

               Third: without duplication, to Holders for any other Obligations
          owing to the Holders under the Notes or this Indenture; and

               Fourth: to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent
          jurisdiction shall direct.

     The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Holders.

     SECTION 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any
right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any
action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may
require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay
the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party
litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply
to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.6, or a suit
by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                     TRUSTEE


                                      -67-

<PAGE>

     SECTION 7.1 Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested
in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in
the conduct of his or her own affairs.

     (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

          (i) The duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the
     express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee need perform only
     those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no
     others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
     Indenture against the Trustee.

          (ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
     conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
     the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to
     the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However,
     in the case of certificates specifically required by any provision hereof
     to be furnished to it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and
     opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of
     this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
     mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

     (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except
that:

          (i) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this
     Section.

          (ii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
     good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee
     was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

          (iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
     takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
     received by it pursuant to Section 6.5.

     (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a),
(b) and (c) of this Section.

     (e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee may refuse to perform any
duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to
it against any loss, liability or expense.

     (f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by
it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers. Money held in
trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

     SECTION 7.2 Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon
any document (whether in original or facsimile form) believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee
need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.


                                      -68-

<PAGE>

     (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be
liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on
such Officers' Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with
counsel and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full
and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon.

     (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

     (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to
take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

     (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand,
request, direction or notice from the Issuers shall be sufficient if signed by
an Officer of each of the Issuers, on behalf of the Issuers.

     (f) Except with respect to Section 4.1, the Trustee shall have no duty to
inquire as to the performance of the Issuers' covenants in Article IV. In
addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or
Event of Default except (i) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Sections
6.1(a), (b) and 4.1, or (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notification or
obtained actual knowledge.

     (g) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights
or powers vested in it by this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered
to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses
and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction.

     (h) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture,
note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the
Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into
such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to
make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney
at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur not liability or additional
liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

     (i) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event
of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge
thereof or unless written notice of any event which in fact such a default is
received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such
notice references the Securities and this Indenture.

     (j) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to
the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are
extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities
hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.


                                      -69-

     (k) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver and Officers'
Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture,
which Officer's Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an
Officers' Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

     (l) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special,
indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including loss
of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

     SECTION 7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or
any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise
deal with the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers with the same rights it
would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee
acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the TIA) it must eliminate such
conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue as
trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee is
also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

     SECTION 7.4 Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for
and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or
the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuers' use of the proceeds from
the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers' direction under
any provision hereof, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of
any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it shall not
be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes
or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to
this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

     SECTION 7.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and
is continuing and if the Trustee has knowledge thereof (within the meaning of
Section 7.2(f)), the Trustee shall mail to the Holders a notice of the Default
or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a
Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a
committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding
the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

     SECTION 7.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15
beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee
shall mail to the Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date that
complies with TIA Section 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA Section
313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no
report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section
313(b). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA
Section 313(c).

     Commencing at the time this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, a copy of
each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders shall be filed with the
Commission and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed. The Issuers
shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange or any delisting thereof.


                                      -70-

     At the express written direction of the Company and at the Company's
expense, the Trustee will provide any Gaming Authority with:

          (i) copies of all notices, reports and other written communications
     that the Trustee gives to Holders;

          (ii) a list of all of the Holders promptly after the original issuance
     of the Notes and periodically thereafter if the Company so directs in
     writing;

          (iii) notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Indenture,
     any acceleration of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby, the institution of
     any legal actions or proceedings before any court or governmental authority
     in respect of a Default or Event of Default hereunder;

          (iv) notice of the removal or resignation of the Trustee within five
     Business Days of the effectiveness thereof;

          (v) notice of any transfer or assignment of rights, by the Issuers or
     any Guarantor, under this Indenture known to the Trustee within five
     Business Days thereof; and

          (vi) a copy of any amendment to the Notes or this Indenture within
     five Business Days of the effectiveness thereof.

     Subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2, to the extent reasonably requested by the
Company in writing and at the Company's expense, the Trustee shall cooperate
with any Gaming Authority in order to provide such Gaming Authority with such
information and documentation as may be reasonably available to the Trustee and
as may be requested in writing by such Gaming Authority and as otherwise
permitted by applicable law.

     SECTION 7.7 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuers shall pay to the
Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture
and services hereunder as the Issuers and the Trustee may from time to time
agree in writing. The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on
compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse the
Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and
expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its
services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements
and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel, except such disbursements,
advances and expenses as shall be determined to have been caused by its own
negligence or willful misconduct.

     Except as set forth below, the Issuers, jointly and severally, shall
indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, agents and employees against
any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by it
without negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including
the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuers and
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise
or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The Trustee shall
notify the Issuers promptly of any claim of which it has received written notice
for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the


                                      -71-

<PAGE>

Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. The
Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense.
In the event that, in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee, a conflict of
interest or conflicting defenses would arise in connection with the
representation of the Issuers and the Trustee by the same counsel, the Trustee
may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need not pay for any settlement made
without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     The obligations of the Issuers under this Section 7.7 shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

     To secure the Issuers' payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the Trustee
shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected
by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture.

     When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.1(j) or (k) occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Code.

     SECTION 7.8 Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee
and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the
successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.8.

     The Trustee may resign at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby
created by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the
Trustee and the Issuers. The Issuers may remove the Trustee if:

          (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

          (b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for
     relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Code;

          (c) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its
     property;

          (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting; or

          (e) the Trustee is found unsuitable or unqualified by any Gaming
     Authority.

     If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office
of Trustee for any reason, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a
successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuers.

     If any Gaming Authority requires the Trustee to be approved, licensed or
qualified and the Trustee fails or declines to do so, such approval, license or
qualification shall be obtained


                                      -72-

<PAGE>

upon the request of, and at the expense of, the Company, unless the Trustee
declines to do so in its sole discretion, in which case the Trustee shall be
replaced in accordance with this Section 7.8, or, if the Trustee's relationship
with the Company may, in the Company's discretion, jeopardize any material
Gaming License or franchise or right or approval granted thereto, the Trustee
shall resign, and, in addition, the Trustee may, at its option, resign if the
Trustee in its sole discretion determines not to be so approved, licensed or
qualified.

     If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuers or the
Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
petition, at the Issuers' expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

     If the Trustee after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder
for at least six months fails to comply with Section 7.10, such Holder may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment
to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. Thereupon, the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this
Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the
Holders. Upon payment of its charges hereunder, the retiring Trustee shall
promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee,
provided that, all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and
subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.7. Notwithstanding replacement of
the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Issuers' obligations under Section
7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee, and the Issuers
shall pay to any such replaced or removed Trustee all amounts owed under Section
7.7 upon such replacement or removal.

     SECTION 7.9 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee consolidates,
merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate
trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the successor
corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

     SECTION 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a
Trustee hereunder that shall (a) be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof or of the
District of Columbia authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee
power, (b) be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state or the
District of Columbia authority, and (c) have a combined capital and surplus of

4.20, and Article V on and after the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (hereinafter, "Covenant Defeasance"), and the Notes shall thereafter
be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent
or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in

for all other purposes hereunder. Following such Covenant Defeasance, (a)
neither the Issuers nor any Subsidiary Guarantor need comply with, and none of
them shall have any liability in respect of, any term, condition or limitation
set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any
reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in
any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Notes and the
Subsidiary Guarantee shall be unaffected thereby, and (b) Sections 6.1(c)
through (i) shall not constitute Events of Default with respect to the Notes.

     deposited with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash
     in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination
     thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a
     nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
     principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the
     stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be,
     and the Issuers shall specify whether the Notes are being defeased to
     maturity or to a particular redemption date;

          (ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered
     to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (A) the Issuers have
     received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service
     a ruling or (B) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the
     applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
     based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will
     not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a
     result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax
     on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have
     been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

          (iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers shall have
     delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders
     will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as
     a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income
     tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
     have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

          (iv) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of
     Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such
     deposit);


                                      -75-

<PAGE>

          (v) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a
     breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material
     agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuers or
     any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuers or
     any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

          (vi) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
     Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the
     intent of preferring the Holders over the other creditors of the Issuers
     with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors
     of the Issuers or others; and

          (vii) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
     Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating, subject to certain

     Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

     SECTION 8.5 Deposited Cash and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in
Trust; other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.6, all cash and U.S.
Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the
Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section
8.5, the "Paying Agent") pursuant to Section 8.4 in respect of the outstanding
Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Paying Agent, in accordance with
the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly
or through any other Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders
of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal,
premium, if any, and interest (and Liquidated Damages, if any).

     The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations
deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 or the principal and interest received in
respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for
the account of the Holders of outstanding Notes.

     SECTION 8.6 Repayment to the Issuers. (a) The Trustee or the Paying Agent
shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the
Issuers any cash or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 8.4 which in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.4(i)), are in excess
of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an
equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

     (b) Any cash and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest (and Liquidated Damages, if any) on any Note and remaining unclaimed
for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become
due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request; and the Holder of
such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all
liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money
shall thereupon cease; provided that, the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before
being required to make any such repayment, shall at the


                                      -76-

<PAGE>

expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The
Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed
and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days
from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such
money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers.

     SECTION 8.7 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to
apply any cash or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.2 or
8.3, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, or if any event occurs at any time in the period ending on the 91st
day after the date of deposit pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 which event would
constitute an Event of Default under Section 6.1(j) or (k) had Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, not occurred, then the Issuers' and
the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall
be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section
8.2 or 8.3 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply
such money in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3, as the case may be; provided
that, if the Issuers make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest (and Liquidated Damages, if any) on any Note following the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the cash or U.S.
Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                   AMENDMENTS

     certificated Notes;

          (c) to comply with Article V and Section 10.6;

     benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights
     of any Holder under this Indenture or under the Notes;

          (e) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect
     or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

          (f) to release any Subsidiary Guarantee of the Notes permitted to be
     released under Section 10.7; or

                                      -77-

<PAGE>

     Upon the request of the Issuers, accompanied by a resolution of the Board
of Directors of each of the Issuers authorizing the execution of any such
supplemental indenture or amendment, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the
documents described in Section 9.6 required or requested by the Trustee, the
Trustee shall join with the Issuers in the execution of any supplemental
indenture or amendment authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture
and shall make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be
therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such
supplemental indenture or amendment that affects its own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

     SECTION 9.2 With Consent of Holders. (a) Subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7,
the Issuers and the Trustee, as applicable, may amend, or waive any provision
of, this Indenture or the Notes, with the written consent of the Holders of at
least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
(including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer
for Notes).

     (b) Upon the request of the Issuers, accompanied by a resolution of the
Board of Directors of each of the Issuers authorizing the execution of any such
supplemental indenture or amendment, and upon filing with the Trustee of
evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid,
and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.6, the
Trustee shall join with the Issuers in the execution of such supplemental
indenture or amendment unless such supplemental indenture or amendment affects
the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

     (c) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental
indenture or amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the
substance thereof.

     (d) After a supplemental indenture or amendment under this Section 9.2
becomes effective, the Issuers shall mail to the Holders of each Note affected
thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment or waiver. Any failure of the
Issuers to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any
way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture, amendment
or waiver.

     (e) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, without the consent of each
Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.2 may not (with
respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

          (i) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to
     an amendment, supplement or waiver;

          (ii) reduce the principal of, or the premium (including, without
     limitation, redemption premium) on, or change the fixed maturity of, any
     Note; alter the provisions with respect to the payment on redemption of the
     Notes; or alter the price at which repurchases of the Notes may be made
     pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.14, after the Asset Sale or Change of
     Control, respectively, has occurred;

          (iii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on
     any Note;


                                      -78-

<PAGE>

          (iv) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal
     of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of
     acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate
     principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that
     resulted from such acceleration);

          (v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the
     Notes;

          (vi) make any change in Section 6.4 or 6.7 or in this Section 9.2;

          (vii) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note in a
     redemption made pursuant to Article III; or

          (viii) adversely affect the contractual ranking of the Notes or
     Subsidiary Guarantees.

     SECTION 9.3 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. If, at the time of an
amendment to this Indenture or the Notes, this Indenture shall be qualified
under the TIA, every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth
in a supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

     SECTION 9.4 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until a supplemental
indenture, an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder
of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a
Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting
Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. A
supplemental indenture, amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with
its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

     The Issuers may fix a record date for determining which Holders must
consent to such supplemental indenture, amendment or waiver. If the Issuers fix
a record date, the record date shall be fixed at (i) the later of 30 days prior
to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of
Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section
2.5, or (ii) such other date as the Issuers shall designate.

     SECTION 9.5 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an
appropriate notation about a supplemental indenture, amendment or waiver on any
Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuers in exchange for all Notes may issue
and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or
waiver.

     Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not
affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver.

     SECTION 9.6 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any
amendment or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if
the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or
immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it.
In signing or refusing to sign such amendment or supplemental indenture, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, an indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it and shall be provided with and, subject to Section 7.1, shall
be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel as conclusive evidence that


                                      -79-

<PAGE>

such amendment or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture and applicable Gaming Laws, that it is not inconsistent herewith and
therewith, and that it shall be valid and binding upon the Issuers in accordance
with its terms. The Issuers may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture
until the Board of Directors of each of the Issuers approves it.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                    GUARANTEE

     SECTION 10.1 Subsidiary Guarantee. For good and valuable consideration, the

10.3, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally

to time pursuant to Section 10.6, being the "Subsidiary Guarantee") to each
Holder and the Trustee irrespective of the validity or enforceability of this
Indenture, the Notes, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Obligations of
the Issuers hereunder or thereunder: (i) the due and punctual payment of the
principal and premium, if any, of, and interest on, the Notes (including,

proceedings referred to in Section 6.1(j) or (k)), whether at maturity or on an
interest payment date, by acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise; (ii)
the due and punctual payment of interest on the overdue principal and premium,
if any, of, and interest on, the Notes, if lawful; (iii) the due and punctual

any of such other Obligations hereunder or under the Notes or the Registration
Rights Agreement, the due and punctual payment or performance thereof in
accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

     Failing payment when due by the Issuers of any amount so guaranteed for
whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that (i) its obligations hereunder
shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes, this Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement
or the Obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, the absence of any
action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to
any provisions hereof or thereof, any amendment of this Indenture or the Notes,
the recovery of any judgment against either of the Issuers or any of the
Subsidiaries, any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstance that
might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
guarantor and (ii) this Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged except by
complete performance of the Obligations of the Issuers under the Notes, this
Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall not be entitled to

claim with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of either of the
Issuers, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Subsidiary


                                      -80-

<PAGE>

or any other obligor under the Notes, any right to require a proceeding first
against the applicable Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Subsidiary or
any other obligor under this Indenture or the Notes, protest, notice and all
demands whatsoever, (ii) any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution or indemnification in respect of any Obligations guaranteed hereby
and (iii) any claim or other rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against
the Issuers or any of the Subsidiaries that arise from the existence or
performance of its Obligations under this Subsidiary Guarantee, including,
without limitation, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of a Holder
against the Issuers or any of the Subsidiaries, whether or not such claim,
remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, by
any payment made hereunder or otherwise, and including, without limitation, the
right to take or receive from the Issuers or any of the Subsidiaries, directly
or indirectly, in cash or other property, by setoff or in any other manner,
payment on account of such claim or other rights.

     If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to
return to the Issuers, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Subsidiary of the
Issuers or any other obligor under this Indenture or the Notes, trustee,
liquidator, or other similar official, any amount paid by the Issuers, any
Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Subsidiary of the Issuers or any other obligor
under this Indenture or the Notes to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, as between the Subsidiary
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand,
(i) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as
provided in Section 6.2 for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration as to the Issuers of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in
the event of any declaration of acceleration of those Obligations as provided in
Section 6.2, those Obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith
become due and payable by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of
this Subsidiary Guarantee.

     SECTION 10.2 Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee. To evidence
the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.1, the Issuers and each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that (a) a notation of such Subsidiary
Guarantee substantially as set forth on Exhibit C hereto shall be endorsed on
each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, (b) such endorsement shall
be executed on behalf of each Subsidiary Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board,
President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Treasurer,
Secretary or any Vice President and (c) a counterpart signature page to this
Indenture shall be executed on behalf of each Subsidiary Guarantor by its
Chairman of the Board, President or one of its Vice Presidents and attested to
by another officer acknowledging such Subsidiary Guarantor's agreement to be
bound by the provisions hereof and thereof.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set
forth in Section 10.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

     If an officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that
office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Notes on which a Subsidiary
Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall nevertheless be valid.


                                      -81-

<PAGE>

     The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof
hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth
in this Indenture on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantor.

     SECTION 10.3 Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor's Liability. Each
Subsidiary Guarantor and by its acceptance hereof each Holder hereby confirms
that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by such
Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee not constitute a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Federal or state law. To
effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under
its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after
giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary
Guarantor and to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any
other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Obligations of such other
Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, result in the Obligations
of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Federal or state law or
render a Subsidiary Guarantor insolvent.

     SECTION 10.4 Rights Under the Subsidiary Guarantee. (a) No payment by any
Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the provisions hereof shall give rise to any
claim of the Subsidiary Guarantors against the Trustee or any Holder.

     (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of the issuance, sale and
purchase of the Notes and notice from the Trustee or the Holders from time to
time of any of the Notes of their acceptance and reliance on this Subsidiary
Guarantee.

     (c) No set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any obligation or
any defense of any kind or nature (other than performance by the Subsidiary
Guarantors of their obligations hereunder) that any Subsidiary Guarantor may
have or assert against the Trustee or any Holder shall be available hereunder to
such Subsidiary Guarantor.

     (d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay all costs, expenses and fees,
including all reasonable attorneys' fees, that may be incurred by the Trustee in
enforcing or attempting to enforce the Subsidiary Guarantee or protecting the
rights of the Trustee or the Holder, if any, in accordance with this Indenture.

     SECTION 10.5 Primary Obligations. The Obligations of each Subsidiary
Guarantor hereunder shall constitute a guaranty of payment and not of
collection. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it is directly liable to each
Holder hereunder, that the Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder
are independent of the Obligations of the Issuers or any other Subsidiary
Guarantor, and that a separate action may be brought against each Subsidiary
Guarantor, whether such action is brought against the Issuers or any other
Subsidiary Guarantor or whether the Issuers or any other Subsidiary Guarantor is
joined in such action. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its liability
hereunder shall be immediate and shall not be contingent upon the exercise or
enforcement by the Trustee or the Holders of whatever remedies they may have
against the Issuers or any other Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor


                                      -82-

<PAGE>

agrees that any release that may be given by the Trustee or the Holders to the
Issuers or any other Subsidiary Guarantor shall not release such Subsidiary
Guarantor.

     SECTION 10.6 Guarantee By Subsidiary. The Company shall cause (i) each
Restricted Subsidiary that is formed or acquired after the date hereof and (ii)
each Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary after the date hereof, in
each case concurrently therewith, to (a) become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder
and execute and deliver to the Trustee a Subsidiary Guarantee in the form of
Exhibit C attached hereto and a supplemental indenture in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall
unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuers' Obligations as set forth in
Section 10.1; and (b) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to deliver to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, that (y)
such supplemental indenture and Subsidiary Guarantee have been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and (x) this Indenture and
such Subsidiary Guarantee constitute a legal, valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, subject to customary assumptions and
exceptions, including for bankruptcy, fraudulent transfer and equitable
principles.

     Each Note issued after the date of execution by any Subsidiary Guarantor of
a Subsidiary Guarantee shall be endorsed with a form of Subsidiary Guarantee
that has been executed by such Subsidiary Guarantor. However, the failure of any
Note to have endorsed thereon a Subsidiary Guarantee executed by such Subsidiary
Guarantor shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such Subsidiary
Guarantee against such Subsidiary Guarantor.

     SECTION 10.7 Release of Subsidiary Guarantors. If all of the Capital Stock
of any Subsidiary Guarantor is sold by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to
a Person (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) in a transaction
that complies with the terms of this Indenture and the Net Proceeds from such
Asset Sale are used in accordance with Section 4.10, then such Subsidiary
Guarantor will be released and discharged from all of its Obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee of the Notes and this Indenture.

     SECTION 10.8 [Gaming Law and Liquor Law Considerations. (a) If any consent
or approval under the Gaming Laws or Liquor Laws is required in connection with
the taking of any of the actions which may be taken by the Trustee in the
exercise of its rights hereunder, then the Issuers agree to use their reasonable
best efforts to secure such consent or approval and to cooperate with the
Trustee in obtaining any such consent or approval. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Issuers shall promptly
execute and/or cause the execution of all applications, certificates,
instruments and other documents and papers that the Trustee may be required to
file in order to obtain any necessary consents or approvals under the Gaming
Laws and Liquor Laws, and if the Issuers fail or refuse to execute such
documents, the Trustee or the clerk of the court with jurisdiction may execute
such documents on behalf of the Issuers.

     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary,
nothing in this Indenture shall (i) effect any transfer of any ownership
interest (within the meaning of 68 Indiana Administrative Code 5 or the Colorado
Gaming Laws) in the Company or (ii) effect any transfer, sale, purchase, lease
or hypothecation of, or any borrowing or loaning of money against, or any
establishment of any voting trust agreement or other similar agreement with
respect to (all

within the meaning of Indiana Code 4-33-4-21), any certificate of suitability,
finding of suitability, registration, license or any owner's license heretofore
