Control Agreement Concerning Deposit Accounts Dated June 14, 2002



 Exhibit 4.37 
  
 FORM OF CONTROL AGREEMENT CONCERNING DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS 
  
 This Control Agreement Concerning Designated Accounts Consisting of Deposit Accounts (this “Control
Agreement”), dated as of June 14, 2002 by and among COLONIAL HOLDINGS, INC. (the “Pledgor”), WELLS FARGO BANK MINNESOTA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Trustee”) and CITIZENS AND FARMERS BANK (the “Bank”), is
delivered pursuant to Section 3.4(b) of that certain security agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), dated as of February 8, 2002 made by
GAMECO, INC. (renamed Jacobs Entertainment, Inc., the “Issuer”) and EACH OF THE GUARANTORS LISTED ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES THERETO OR FROM TIME TO TIME PARTY THERETO BY EXECUTION OF A JOINDER AGREEMENT, in favor of WELLS FARGO BANK
MINNESOTA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee for its benefit and the benefit of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture (as defined in the Security Agreement). The Trustee and each Holder of the Notes are hereby termed the “Secured
Parties.” This Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Secured Parties granted by the Pledgor in the Designated Accounts described below. All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the
Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of Virginia. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement. 
  
 Section 1. Confirmation of Establishment and Maintenance of Designated
Accounts. The Bank hereby confirms that (i) the Bank has established for the Pledgor and maintains the deposit account(s) listed in Schedule 1 attached hereto (such deposit account(s), together with each such other deposit account
maintained by the Pledgor with the Bank collectively, the “Designated Accounts” and each a “Designated Account”), (ii) each Designated Account is a “deposit account” as such term is defined in Article 9 of
the UCC. For avoidance of doubt, it is noted that the term “Designated Accounts” as used in any security agreement means both the Designated Accounts hereunder and the “Designated Accounts” in the comparable agreement entered
into with respect to any other Pledgor. 
  
 Section 2.
Control. The Trustee shall at all times (A) have “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of any Designated Account and (B) be authorized to direct the Bank to comply without further consent of the Pledgor or any person
acting or purporting to act for the Pledgor being required, with all instructions originated by the Trustee directing disposition of the funds in the Designated Account. The Pledgor, the Trustee, and the Bank agree that the Bank will comply with
instructions originated by the Trustee directing the disposition of the funds in the Designated Account without further consent by the Pledgor. The Bank shall also comply with instructions directing the disposition of funds in the Designated
Account(s) originated by the Pledgor or its authorized representatives until such time as the Trustee delivers a Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 8(i) hereof to the Bank. 







 Section 3. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Bank has or
subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any Designated Account, the Bank hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to that of the Secured Parties. The funds deposited into any
Designated Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Secured Parties (except that the Bank may set off (i) all amounts due to the Bank in respect of its customary
fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated Accounts, including overdraft fees, and (ii) the face amount of any checks or other items which have been credited to any Designated Account but are subsequently returned
unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds). 
  
 Section
4. Choice of Law. Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of Virginia. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, Virginia shall be deemed to be the
Bank’s jurisdiction and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of Virginia. 
  
 Section 5. Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments. As of the date hereof, there are no other agreements entered into between the Bank and the
Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any funds credited thereto (other than standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated Accounts). The Bank and the Pledgor will not enter
into any other agreement with respect to any Designated Account unless the Trustee shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Bank and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to control of the Designated Accounts
without the prior written consent of the Trustee acting in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict with respect to “control” over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other
agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. The Bank agrees that references to “you” in any other such agreement now existing or hereinafter entered into shall not include the
Trustee or its successors or assigns until such time as the Trustee has issued a Notice of Sole Control, and while such Notice of Sole Control remains in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Bank’s standard and customary
documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of the Designated Accounts, the Trustee shall not be liable for any account shortage resulting from charges or overdrafts, unless at the time of such charge or overdraft, the Trustee
shall have issued a Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement. No amendment or modification of this Control Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by
all the parties hereto. 
  
 Section 6. Certain Agreements.

  
 (i) The Bank has furnished to the Trustee and the Pledgor the
most recent account statement issued by the Bank with respect to each of the Designated Accounts and the cash balances held therein. The Bank represents and warrants to the Trustee that each such statement accurately reflects the assets held in such
Designated Account as of the date thereof.

 (ii) The Trustee has delivered to the Bank a list, signed by an authorized representative (the
“Authorized Representative”), of the officers of the Trustee authorized to give approvals or instructions under this Control Agreement (including notices and other instructions under Section 8 hereof) and the Bank shall be
entitled to rely on communications from such authorized officers until the earlier of the termination of this Control Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, the notification by the Authorized Representative of a change and the assignment of
the rights of the Secured Parties in accordance with Section 11 hereof. 
  
 Section 7. Notice of Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Parties and of the Pledgor in the Designated Account(s), the Bank on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, or
security interest in, any Designated Account or in any funds credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any Person other than the Trustee has been given “control” of any Designated Account or any such funds. If any Person asserts
any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process and any claim of “control”) against any funds in any Designated Account, the Bank will promptly notify
the Trustee and the Pledgor thereof. Nothing contained in this Control Agreement shall in any way limit or prevent the Bank from complying with an order of a court of competent jurisdiction in respect of such liens, encumbrances, or adverse claims.

  
 Section 8. Maintenance of Designated Accounts. In
addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of the Bank agreed in Section 2 hereof, the Bank agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows: 
  

(i) Notice of Sole Control. If at any time the Trustee delivers to the Bank a notice of sole control in substantially the form
set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Notice of Sole Control”) with respect to any Designated Account, the Bank agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all instruction with respect to such Designated
Account solely from the Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the first sentence of this paragraph, upon receipt of a Notice of Sole Control, the Bank shall follow all instructions given by an authorized officer of the Trustee, including,
without limitation, instructions for distribution or transfer of any funds in any Designated Account to be made to the Trustee. 
  
 (ii) Permitted Dispositions. Until such time as the Bank receives a Notice of Sole Control signed by the Trustee with respect to a
Designated Account, a Pledgor, or any representative of a Pledgor, shall direct the Bank with respect to the transfer of the funds held in such Designated Account. Until such time as the Bank receives a Notice of Sole Control, the Pledgor shall be
entitled to write checks against amounts in each Designated Account, and make withdrawals, transfers, and other dispositions of the funds in each Designated Account in accordance with the terms of the deposit agreement between the Bank and the
Pledgor. 
  

 -3- 








 (iii) Statements and Confirmations. The Bank will promptly send copies of all
statements and other correspondence (excluding routine confirmations) concerning any Designated Account to each of the Pledgor and the Trustee at the address set forth in Section 12 hereof. The Bank will promptly provide to the Trustee and to
the Pledgor, upon the Trustee’s request therefor from time to time and, in any event monthly, a statement of the cash balance in each Designated Account. 
  

Section 9. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Bank. The Bank hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants:

  
 (i) The Designated Accounts have been
established as set forth in Section 1 hereof and each Designated Account will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement, or until the Designated Accounts shall be closed in accordance with the
terms of the Pledgor’s deposit agreement with the Bank. The Bank shall not change the name or account number of any Designated Account without the prior written consent of the Trustee. 
  
 (ii) The Bank is a “bank,” as such term is defined
in the UCC. 
  
 (iii) This Control Agreement is
the valid and legally binding obligation of the Bank. 
  
 (iv) The Bank has not entered into any agreement with any other Person pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account. Until the termination of this Control Agreement, the
Bank will not, without the written approval of the Trustee, enter into any agreement with any Person pursuant to which it agrees to comply with any orders or instructions of such Person with respect to any Designated Account. 
  
 (v) The Bank has not entered into any other agreement with
the Pledgor or the Trustee purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Bank to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account as set forth in Section 2 hereof. 
  
 Section 10. Successors; Assignment. The terms of this Control
Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective corporate successors and permitted assignees. 
  
 Section 11. Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under this Control Agreement shall be in writing
and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when sent by telecopy or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error free receipt is received or two (2) days after being sent by certified or registered United
States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the party at the address set forth below.
