Indebtedness of other Persons; (iv) any Disqualified Stock; (v) any Attributable Indebtedness; (vi) all obligations of such Person in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments or credit
transactions issued for the account of such Person (including reimbursement obligations with respect thereto), other than obligations with respect to letters of credit securing obligations (other than obligations described in this definition)
entered into in the ordinary course of business of such Person to the extent such letters of credit are not drawn upon or, if and to the extent drawn upon, such drawing is reimbursed no later than the third business day following receipt by such
Person of a demand for reimbursement following payment on the letter of credit; (vii) in the case of the Company, Preferred Stock of its Restricted Subsidiaries; and (viii) obligations pursuant to any Interest Rate Agreement or Currency

or Preferred Stock as if such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock were repurchased on any date on which Indebtedness shall be required to be determined pursuant to this Indenture; provided, however, that if such Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock is not then permitted to be repurchased, the repurchase price shall be the book value of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock. The amount of Indebtedness of any Person at any date shall be the outstanding balance at such date
of all unconditional obligations as described above and the maximum liability of any other obligations described in clauses (i) through (viii) above in respect thereof at such date.

a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period. 
 “Legal Requirements” means all laws, statutes and ordinances and all rules, orders, rulings, regulations, directives, decrees,
injunctions and requirements of all governmental authorities, that are now or may hereafter be in existence, and that may be applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof or the Trustee (including building codes, zoning and
environmental laws, regulations and ordinances and Gaming Laws), as modified by any variances, special use permits, waivers, exceptions or other exemptions which may from time to time be applicable.

arrangement, security interest, lien, charge, easement (other than any easement not materially impairing usefulness or marketability), encumbrance, preference, priority, or other security agreement or preferential arrangement of any kind or nature
whatsoever on or with respect to such Property (including any Capital Lease Obligation, conditional sale or other title retention agreement having substantially the same economic effect as any of the foregoing). Any Sale/Leaseback Transaction shall
be deemed to constitute a Lien on the Property which is the subject of such Sale/Leaseback Transaction securing the Attributable Indebtedness represented thereby.

 “Obligations” means any principal, interest, penalties, fees, indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities payable under the documentation governing any Indebtedness.

may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon payment over to the
Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, 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 proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
 Section 2.05. Holder Lists.

shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion
thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this

Participant or an Indirect Participant given to 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

relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(g) hereof. 
 (c) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes for
Definitive Notes. If any holder of a beneficial interest in an Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Definitive Note or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
Definitive Note, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof, the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.06(g)
hereof, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest
pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(i) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depositary
and the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee shall deliver such Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.

reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person

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 3.02 hereof 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 or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note
between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
 (vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of
a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any 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 Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (vii) The Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof. 
 (viii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by
facsimile. 
 Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. 
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, in the absence of notice to the Company or the
Trustee that the Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the
Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may
suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge a Holder for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note is an
additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes
authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled 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 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b) hereof. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to
Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
  

 16 








 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof)
holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 
 Section 2.09. 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 Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common
control with the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the 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 are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
 Section 2.10. Temporary Notes. 
 Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall
authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders
of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11. Cancellation. 
 The Company 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 dispose of such canceled
Notes in its customary manner (consistent with all applicable legal requirements). Certification of the disposition of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or
that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest. 
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it 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, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing
of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date
shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the
Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
  


 17 








 Section 2.13. CUSIP Numbers. 
 The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers and, if it does so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any
such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The
Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 
 ARTICLE 3. 
 REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

Trustee. 
 If the Company elects to redeem Notes of any series pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of such Note and
Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall
occur, (ii) the series of Notes to be redeemed, (iii) the redemption date, (iv) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (v) the redemption price. 
 Section 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 
 If less than all of the Notes of any series
are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes of such series to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of the Notes that are subject to such redemption or purchase on a pro rata basis
unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange requirements. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company 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; except that
if all of the Notes of a Holder of such series are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes of such series held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 
 Section 3.03. Notice
of Redemption. 
 At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by
first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. 
 The notice shall
identify the Notes (including CUSIP Numbers) to be redeemed and shall state: 
 (a) the redemption date; 
 (b) the redemption price; 
 (c) if any Note
is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion (so long as such
amount is in a denomination of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 
  

 18 








 (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 Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
redemption date; 
 (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are
being redeemed; and 
 (h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such
notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name
and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and providing a form
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
 Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and
payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 
 Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price.

 On or prior to 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent
money 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 promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the
Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
 If the
Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date
but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company 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 and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
 Section 3.06.
Notes Redeemed in Part. 
 Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon the Company’s written
request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. 
  

 19 








 Section 3.07. Optional Redemption. 
 (a) Except as set forth in the Note, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Notes. 
 (b) Any optional redemption provided for in the Note shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 hereof. 
 Section 3.08. Mandatory Redemption. 
 The Company
shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 Section 3.09. Mandatory Disposition or
Redemption Pursuant to Gaming Laws. 
 If a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note is required to be licensed, qualified or found suitable
under applicable Gaming Laws and is not so licensed, qualified or found suitable within any time period specified by the applicable Gaming Authority, the Holder shall be obligated, at the request of the Company, to dispose of such Holder’s
Notes within a time period prescribed by the Company or such other time period prescribed by such Gaming Authority (in which event the Company’s obligation to pay any interest after the receipt of such notice shall be limited as provided in
such Gaming Laws), and thereafter, the Company shall have the right to redeem, on the date fixed by the Company for the redemption of such Notes, such Holder’s Notes at a redemption price equal to the lesser of (1) the lowest closing sale
price of the Notes on any trading day during the 120-day period ending on the date upon which the Company shall have received notice from a Gaming Authority of such Holder’s disqualification or (2) the price at which such Holder or
beneficial owner acquired the Notes, unless a different redemption price is required by such Gaming Authority, in which event such required price shall be the redemption price. The Company is not required to pay or reimburse any Holder or beneficial
owner of a Note for the costs of licensure or investigation for such licensure, qualification or finding of suitability. Any Holder or beneficial owner of a Note required to be licensed, qualified or found suitable under applicable Gaming Laws must
pay all investigative fees and costs of the Gaming Authorities in connection with such qualification or application therefor.

of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company 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 Company 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 Company 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,
however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Company 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
Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 2.03. 
 Section 4.03. Reports. 
 (a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are

thereon by the Company’s certified independent accountants and (ii) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports. In addition, whether or not required by

such a filing) and will post the reports on its website within those time periods. The Company shall at all times comply with TIA § 314(a). 
 (b) If, at any time the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding
paragraphs of this covenant with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. 
 (c) The
Company will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports referred to
in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC. 
 (d) If at any time the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall furnish to the Holders and to prospective
investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
  

 21 








 Section 4.04. Compliance Certificate. 
 (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of
the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its
obligations under this Indenture and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company 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 of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which
he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the
principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 (b) The Company shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, not more than 30 days after any Officer becomes aware of any
Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 Section 4.05. Stay and Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants
or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (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 4.06. Corporate Existence. 
 Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be
amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section 4.07. Limitation on Status of Investment Company. 
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, become an “investment company” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), to the extent such status would subject the Company or any such Subsidiary to regulation under the Investment
Company Act, except for Subsidiaries established for the purpose of financing the operating businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
  

 22 








 Section 4.08. Payment for Consent. 
 Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any
Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the same series of Notes that consent,
waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
 ARTICLE 5.

 SUCCESSORS 
 Section 5.01. Merger,
Consolidation and Sale of Assets. 
 The Company shall not merge or consolidate with or into any other entity (other than a merger or
consolidation of a Restricted Subsidiary with or into the Company) or in one transaction or a series of related transactions sell, convey, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its Property unless (i) the
entity formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if the Company is not the surviving entity) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance is made (the “Successor”) (a) shall be a
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a State thereof or the District of Columbia and such corporation expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to
the Trustee by such corporation, the due and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Company; and (b) the Successor shall have all Gaming Licenses required to operate all Gaming Facilities to be owned by such Successor; (ii) in the case of a sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s Property, such Property shall have been transferred as an entirety or virtually as an entirety to one Person; and (iii) immediately before and after giving effect to such
transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 Section 5.02.
Successor Corporation Substituted. 
 Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment,
transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture
referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named
as the Company herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition of all of the Company’s assets that meets the requirements of Section 5.01 hereof. 
  

 23 








 ARTICLE 6. 
 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01. Events of Default. 
 An “Event of Default” occurs with respect to Notes of any series if: 
 (a) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any of the Notes of the series when it becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
period of 30 days; 
 (b) the Company defaults in the payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note of that series when
due at maturity, upon acceleration, required purchase or otherwise; 
 (c) the Company fails to observe, perform or comply with the covenants
and agreements of Section 5.01 hereof; 
 (d) the Company fails to observe, perform or comply with any of the other covenants and
agreements in this Indenture or the Notes, and such failure to observe, perform or comply continues for a period of 30 days after receipt by the Company of a written notice from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of Notes of such series then outstanding voting as a single class; 
 (e) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is
not paid when due or within any applicable grace period or is accelerated by the holders thereof and, in either case, the total amount of such unpaid or accelerated Indebtedness exceeds $50 million; 
 (f) the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of one or more judgments or orders against the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in an uninsured
aggregate amount in excess of $50 million and such judgment or order is not discharged, waived, stayed or satisfied for a period of 60 consecutive days; 
 (g) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: 
 (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, or

 (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 
 (h) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 
 (i) is for relief against the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 
 (ii) appoints a custodian of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary; or 
 (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
  

 24 








 and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; 
 (i) any revocation, suspension or loss of any Gaming License which results in the cessation of business for a period of more than 90 consecutive days of
the business of any Gaming Facility owned, leased or operated directly or indirectly by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which, taken together, collectively contribute more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated cash flow (other than any
voluntary relinquishment of a Gaming License if such relinquishment is, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, evidenced by a Board Resolution, both desirable in the conduct of business of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders); and 
 (j) any other Event of Default provided with
respect to Notes of that series. 
 The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and
whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body. 
 A Default under clause (e), (f) or (i) of this Section 6.01 is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of all of the Notes of that series notify the Company of the Default. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” Any Default under clause
(e) of this Section 6.01 resulting from a default or acceleration with respect to Indebtedness will not be considered an Event of Default if such default or acceleration is cured or waived within 30 days of the receipt by the Company of
the Notice of Default from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such series of Notes. 
 The Company shall
deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Event of Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

 Section 6.02. Acceleration. 
 If
an Event of Default with respect to the Notes of any series (other than an Event of Default resulting from Section 6.01(g) or (h) hereof) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (or, if any Notes of that series are Original Issue Discount Notes, such portion of the principal amount of such Notes as may be specified by the terms thereof) may accelerate the maturity of all the
Notes of such series in which event such Notes (including any accrued interest thereon) shall become immediately due and payable; provided, however, that after such acceleration but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is
obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding, may, by written notice to the Trustee, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the
nonpayment of accelerated principal, have been cured or waived as provided in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default resulting from Section 6.01(g) or (h) hereof shall occur, the Notes (including any accrued interest thereon) shall be
due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders. 
 Section 6.03. Other Remedies. 

 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal and
interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
  

 25 








 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 of a Note 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 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of any series then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its
consequences hereunder except (i) a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on a Note or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of Notes
affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and 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 6.05. Control by Majority. 
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series 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 Indenture that the Trustee determines may be prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of such series of Notes or that may involve the Trustee
in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to
indemnification or security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 
 Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. 
 A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes
only if: 
 (a) the Holder of a Note 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 of the same series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the
remedy; 
 (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes of such series 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 of such series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
 A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 
  

 26 








 Section 6.07. Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and interest on the
Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), 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 such Holder. 
 Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(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 Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes of all series as to which such Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, 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 6.09. 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 of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor
upon the Notes), its creditors or its 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 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 7.07 hereof. 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 7.07 hereof 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 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, 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 7.07 hereof, 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 of Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes for principal, premium and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any
kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the applicable Notes for principal, premium and interest, respectively; and 
  

 27 








 Third: to the Company 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 of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 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 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of
the then outstanding of any series Notes. 
 ARTICLE 7. 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01. 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 its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s 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; and 
 (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 pursuant to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and
opinions specifically required to be furnished to it hereunder to determine whether or not they substantially conform to the procedural requirements of this Indenture. 
 (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; 
  

 28 








 (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; and 
 (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 6.05 hereof. 
 (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 financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or
liability is not reasonably assured to it. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and
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 Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee. 
 (a) The
Trustee may rely upon any document (whether in its 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.

 (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 of its own selection with respect to legal matters relating
to this Indenture 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 accordance
with such advice or Opinion of Counsel. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and 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 that it believes to be authorized or within the 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 Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 (f) 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. 
  

 29 








 Section 7.03. 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 Company or any Affiliate of
the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or
resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.04.
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 Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, 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 7.05. Notice of Defaults. 
 If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to
Holders of Notes of all applicable series 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 of such series. 
 Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 
 Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report
dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall
comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 
 A copy
of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee when Notes of any series are listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom. 
 Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. 

 The Company shall pay to the Trustee as agreed upon in writing from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this
Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket
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. 
  

 30 








 The Company shall fully indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by it 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
Company (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced by failure of the Trustee to provide timely
notice of claims of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, 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 and interest on particular Notes or particular series of 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 6.01(g) or (h) hereof occurs, the expenses
and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 
 Section 7.08. 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. 
 The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series may remove the Trustee as to such series of Notes by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
 (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 Law; 
 (c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 
  

 31 








 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the
Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. 
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee
resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 20% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee for such series of Notes. 
 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 Company. 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 Holders. The retiring
Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding
replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 Section 7.09. 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 or association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this
Indenture and any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that
time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force which is anywhere provided in the Notes or in this Indenture. 
 Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States
of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50
million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
 This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b). 
  

 32 








 Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 
 The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
 ARTICLE 8. 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The Company may, at the option of its Board of
Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes or any series of Notes upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article Eight. 
 Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes of such series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of such series, which shall thereafter be deemed
to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under Notes of such series and this
Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:
(a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes of such series to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article Two and Section 4.02 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article Eight. Subject to compliance with this Article Eight, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.06, 4.07 and 4.08 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes of such series on and after the date
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes of such series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent
or declaration or act of Holders of Notes of such series (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such
Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of such series, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no 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 

  

 33 








 
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under
Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c) through 6.01(i) hereof, except for Sections 6.01(g) and 6.01(h)
with respect to the Company (but not with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary) shall not constitute Events of Default. 
 Section 8.04. Conditions
to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to
the outstanding Notes of any series: 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States dollars, non-callable U.S.
Government Obligations, 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 and interest on all outstanding Notes of such
series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be; 
 (b) in the case of an election
under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by,
the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this Indenture, 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 of the outstanding Notes of such series 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; 
 (c) in the case of an election under
Section 8.03 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes of such series 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; 
 (d) 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 incurrence of Indebtedness all or a portion of the proceeds of which will be used to defease Notes pursuant to this Article Eight concurrently with such incurrence); 
 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall 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 Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; 
 (f) the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
defrauding any other creditors of the Company; and 
  

 34 








 (g) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 8.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the
“Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment,
either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as 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,
but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the
Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof 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 such outstanding Notes. 
 Anything in this Article Eight to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof 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 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount
thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06. Repayment to
Company. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest 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 Company on its request or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the
Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company 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 Company. 
 Section 8.07. Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of 

  

 35 








 
any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s
obligations under this Indenture and the applicable Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such
money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9. 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01. Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this
Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of a Note:

included solely for the benefit of such series) or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company; 
 (g) to make any change that
would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of all or any series of the Notes (and if such additional rights or benefits are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Notes, stating that such additional rights or benefits
are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder; 
 (h) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 
 (i)
to conform the text of this Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” contained in any Prospectus or Supplemental Prospectus relating to the initial offering of all or any series of the Notes, to the extent that

 (j) to establish the form or terms of Notes of any series as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01; 
  

 36 








 (k) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with

requirements of Section 7.08; or 
 (l) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one or more
series of Notes, provided that any such addition, change or elimination (i) shall neither (A) apply to any Note of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor
(B) modify the rights of the Holder of any such Note with respect to such provision or (ii) shall become effective only when there is no Note described in clause (i) Outstanding. 
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this
Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes without notice to any
Holder of Notes but with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount each series of the Notes affected by such amendment or supplement then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection
with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such series of Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine
which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 Upon the request of the Company
accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as
aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture
directly 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 amended or supplemental Indenture. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment
or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental Indenture or waiver. 
  

 37 








 Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not
(with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder), among other things: 
 (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders
must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (b) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;

 (c) reduce the principal of or extend the stated maturity of any Note; 
 (d) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which a Note may be redeemed; 
 (e) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest or premium on the Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to
institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 
 (f) make any Note payable in money other
than that stated in the Notes; 
 (g) make any change to Article Ten hereof that would adversely affect the Holders; 
 (h) release any security interest in favor of the Notes; or 
 (i) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 hereof or in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions. 
 A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Notes, or which modifies the rights of the
Holders of Notes of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Notes of any other series. 
 Section 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 
 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver
becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note 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. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment
becomes effective. From and after the date an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms, it shall bind every Holder. 
  

 38 








 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who
were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be
Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
 Section 9.05. Notation
on or Exchange of Notes. 
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter
authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 Section 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
 The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article Nine if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the
Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by
this Indenture. 
 Section 9.07. Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. 
 Notes of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Notes of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes of such series. 
 ARTICLE 10. 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 10.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 This
Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 
  

	(1)	either: 

  

	 	(a)	all Notes of such series that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes of such series for whose payment money has
theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  

 39 









	 	(b)	all Notes of such series that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise or
will become due and payable within one year and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government
Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes of such series not delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation for principal, premium and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  

	(2)	other than with respect to a discharge when the Notes of such series have become due and payable, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of
such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;


  

	(3)	the Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 

  

	(4)	the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes of such series at maturity or the
redemption date, as the case may be. 

 In addition, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the
Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section, the provisions of Section 10.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive such satisfaction and
discharge. 
 Section 10.02. Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for
whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 10.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
Section 10.01; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 Capitalized terms used herein
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
 1.
INTEREST. Boyd Gaming Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at         % per
annum from                     , 20     until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on
             and              of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding
Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no
existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date;
provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be                     , 20    . The
Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest from time to time on
demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 2.
METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the
             or              immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after
such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium and interest at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and
provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially,
                    , the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or
Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 4.
INDENTURE. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of                      (the
“Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code
§§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the
Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

 5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 
 (a) Except as set forth in subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to
                    . On or after
                    , the Company shall have the option to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60
days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on
                     of the years indicated below: 
  

						
	 Year
	 	  	  	Percentage	 
	          
	 		  	            	%
	  
	 		  	            	%
	  
	 		  	            	%
	          
	 	and thereafter	  	100.000	%

 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior
to                     , the Company may, on one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a
redemption price equal to         % of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings;
provided that (i) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued remain outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) and
(ii) the redemption occurs within 45 days of the date of the closing of such Public Equity Offering. 
 6. MANDATORY
REDEMPTION. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 7. MANDATORY DISPOSITION OR REDEMPTION PURSUANT TO GAMING LAWS. Pursuant to
the Indenture, the Company will have the right to require a Holder to dispose of such Holder’s Notes if such Holder or the beneficial owner of such Notes is not licensed or found qualified or suitable by a Gaming Authority. In the event any
such Holder fails to dispose of Notes within a prescribed time period, the Company shall have the right to call such Notes for redemption at a redemption price equal to the lesser of (i) the lowest closing sale price of the Notes on any trading
day during the 120-day period ending on the date upon which the Company shall have received notice from such Gaming Authority of such Holder’s disqualification or (ii) the price at which such Holder or beneficial owner acquired the Notes,
unless a different redemption price is required by such Gaming Authority, in which event such required price shall be the redemption price. 
 8. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be
redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date interest
ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. 
 9. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the
Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for 

  

 A-3 








 
redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes
for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 10. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
 11. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions set
forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture and the Notes may be amended without prior notice to any Holder of Notes but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series
and (ii) any past Default and its consequences may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture,
without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Notes (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations
to the Holders of the Notes by a successor to the Company pursuant to Article 5 of the Indenture; (iii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; (iv) to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes
and to release such Guarantees when required by the terms thereof; (v) to secure the Notes; (vi) to add additional covenants or to surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company; (vii) to make any change that would provide any
additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder; (viii) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture
under the TIA; and (ix) to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Prospectus or any Supplemental Prospectus relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the
extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes. 
 12. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; (ii) default
in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon acceleration, required purchase or otherwise; (iii) failure by the Company to comply with Section 5.01 of the
Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company to observe, perform or comply with any of the other covenants and agreements in the Indenture or the Notes and such failure to observe, perform or comply continues for a period of 30 days after receipt by
the Company of a written notice from the Trustee or Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class; (v) Indebtedness of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary is not paid when due or within any applicable grace period or is accelerated by the holders thereof and, in either case, the total amount of such unpaid or accelerated Indebtedness exceeds $50 million; (vi) the entry
by a court of competent jurisdiction of one or more judgments or orders against the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in an uninsured aggregate amount in excess of $50 million and such judgment or order is not discharged, waived, stayed or
satisfied for a period of 60 consecutive days; (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization affecting the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; and (viii) any revocation, suspension or loss of any Gaming License which
results in the cessation of business for a period of more than 90 consecutive days of the business of any Gaming Facility owned, leased or operated directly or indirectly by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any voluntary
relinquishment of a Gaming License if such relinquishment is, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, evidenced by a Board Resolution, both desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders). A Default under clause (v), (vi) or (viii) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes notify the
Company of the Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the

then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations,
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a
Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the
Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. 
 13. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or
any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
 14. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.
Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
 15. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 
 16. ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (=
tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
 17. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on
the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 
 The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to Boyd Gaming Corporation, 3883 Howard Hughes Parkway, Ninth Floor, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169, Attention: General
