pursuant to the foregoing sentence, a new Manager shall be appointed by those
Members holding a Majority Interest of Percentages and Majority Interest of
Company capital, pursuant to Section 6.3.




(c)  Those
Members holding three-fourths of those Percentages that are not held by
Affiliates of the Manager may remove a Manager if, and only if, such Manager (i)
shall have embezzled money or other assets from the Company, or (ii) after
written warning, materially breached this Agreement and failed to cure such
breach within 60 days thereafter.

to the Gary Facilities and/or to be shared with (or with the patrons of) any and

required by any rule or law that may be appropriate to the effecting of any
action by or on behalf of the Company or the Members that has been taken as
provided in this Agreement, that may be necessary or appropriate to enable the
Company to transact business in any other state, or that may be necessary or
appropriate to correct any errors or omissions.  This power of
attorney (i) is coupled with an interest and shall not be revoked by the act,
death or incapacity of any Member, and (ii) shall survive an assignment by any
Member of his interest (provided that where a Member's entire interest is
assigned to a person becoming a substitute Member, this power shall survive
solely to permit the Manager to effect the substitution).

amendments to the Articles shall be filed by the Manager with the
Secretary.  The Manager need not deliver a copy of any such document
to each Member, but shall provide copies to a Member upon request.

act for and to bind the Company to the full extent provided by Indiana
law.

party shall be required to independently confirm that any Manager's action on
behalf of the Company is authorized, and such third party shall be entitled to
assume the authority of any incumbent Manager purporting to act on behalf of the
Company, and every contract, note, mortgage, lease, deed or other instrument
executed by a Manager shall be conclusive evidence that, at the time of
execution, the Company was then in existence, this Agreement had not theretofore

execution and delivery of such instrument was duly authorized by the
Company.




(g)  The

Section 6231(a)(7).




14

payment by the Company to any Manager or any Affiliate of a Manager,

4.3, 4.4 or 4.5 (in which case authorization by the Majority Interest or any
other person shall not be required),




15







(ii)  such
payment is otherwise specifically noted in the Debt Memorandum (in which case

in accordance with Section 6.5.




(j)  any other
consideration by the Company to any Manager or any Affiliate of a Manager,
unless:

consideration is the right of Barden to from time to time appoint itself and/or
any one or more of its Affiliates as a perpetual royalty-free licensee of the
phrase, and the trademarks associated with, "The Majestic Star Casino" (or any
portion of such phrase or trademark) in connection with the designation or

a distribution in violation of this Agreement or the Act, (c) the commission of
a crime, or (d) material violations of this Agreement that are both knowing and
willful.

other Members.

ARTICLE
VIII.









Capital, Profits, Losses and
Distributions




8.1  Capital
Accounts.  A capital account shall be maintained for each
Member, to which Contributions, Profits and any items of income and gain under
this Article VIII shall be credited and against which Distributions and Losses
and any items of deduction and loss under this Article VIII shall be
charged.  Capital accounts shall be maintained in accordance with the
accounting principles of Code Section 704 and the Regulations
thereunder.




17







8.2  Profits and
Losses.  Subject to Sections 8.4 through 8.14, Profits and
Losses shall be determined as of the end of each Fiscal Year.




(a)  Profits
shall be allocated:




(i)  first, to
those Members having a negative balance in their respective capital accounts, in
proportion to, and to extent of, such deficits,




(ii)  next, to
the Members in proportion to, and to the extent of, any Losses that were (A)
previously allocated to them and (B) not addressed by any later allocation of
Profits pursuant to this Paragraph 8.2(a)(ii), and




(iii)  last, to
the Members, in proportion to their respective Percentages.




(b)  Losses
shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective
Percentages.




8.3  Distributions.  At
such times as the Manager may discretionarily determine, but subject to the
rights of creditors (including creditors pursuant to Sections 4.3, 4.4 and/or
4.5), cash and/or property of the Company (net of Reserves) shall be distributed
as recited in this Section 8.3.




(a)  Such cash
and/or property, other than Distributions constituting Residual Proceeds, shall
be distributed:




(i)  first, in
accordance with Subsection 8.3(c), and




(ii)  last, in
proportion to their respective Percentages.




(b)  Distributions
constituting Residual Proceeds shall be distributed in accordance with
Subsection 11.2.




(c)  As
referenced in Subsection 8.3(a), in the case of Distributions that do not
constitute Residual Proceeds, such cash and/or property shall be distributed to
the Members, in accordance with their respective Percentages, in an amount equal
to 40% of the excess, if any, of (i) Profits for the immediately preceding
calendar quarter over (ii) any then-existing net cumulative Losses through the
immediately preceding quarter.  A tentative Distribution under
paragraph 8.3(a)(i) shall be paid within 15 days after each fiscal quarter in an
amount equal to the figure described in the foregoing sentence, as estimated in
writing by the Company's accountants.  A reconciliation of such
tentative Distribution shall be made within 45 days after the relevant fiscal
quarter, by which time the definitive amount figure shall have been determined
by the Company's accountants and by which time (A) each member shall forthwith
repay to the Company the amount, if any, by which such Member's preliminary
Distribution was excessive, or (B) the Company shall forthwith pay each Member
the amount, if any, by which such Member's preliminary Distribution was
inadequate.




18







8.4  Changes in
Interest.  If an addition, withdrawal or substitution of, or
any other change in the interest of, any Member occurs during the period covered
by an allocation, then, subject to any agreement between the persons affected,
Profits and Losses for the period shall be allocated among those interests
consistent with code Section 706(d).  If Code Section 706(d) allows
alternative methods of allocation, the manager shall determine, in its sole
discretion, which alternative method to use in allocating Profits and
Losses.




8.5  Depreciation
Recapture.  In characterizing Profits for purposes of
allocation, that portion, if any, constituting Depreciation recapture shall be
the first Profits so allocated and shall be allocated in the proportions that
the Depreciation giving rise to such recapture was allocated.




8.6  Section
754.  If an election under Code Section 754 is in effect with
respect to the interest of any Member, the allocation of items of income,
deduction, gain or loss shall be governed by the regulations thereunder, but
such allocation shall not be reflected on the Company books.




8.7  Imputed
Interest.  If any Member makes a loan to the Company, or the
Company makes a loan to any Member, and interest in excess of the amount
actually payable is imputed under Code Sections 7872, 483, or 1277 through 1288,
then any item of income or expense attributable to any such imputed interest
shall be allocated solely to the Member who made or received the loan and shall
be credited or charged, as appropriate, to his capital account.




8.8  Contributed
Assets.  Income, gain, loss or deduction with respect to any
property contributed by a Member shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated
among the Members, to the extent required by Code Section 704(c), to take
account of the variation between the basis of the assets to the Company and its
fair market value when contributed.




8.9  Partial-Year
Allocation.  In allocating Profits and Losses, the Members
shall assume that one-twelfth of the Profit or Loss for a year was realized in
each month thereof.




8.10  Installment
Receipts.  Any interest received on an installment obligation
received by the Company upon the sale of the Property shall be treated as
Residual Proceeds and shall be distributed among the Members in the same
proportions as the total Residual Proceeds are distributed.




8.11  Involuntary
Conversion.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
Agreement, upon the compulsory or involuntary conversion of all or any part of
the Property consistent with Code Section 1033(a), if and to the extent
determined by the Manager in its sole discretion, the Company shall not
distribute the net proceeds thereof to the Members, but instead shall reinvest
the net proceeds in such a manner as to avoid recognition (for federal income
tax purposes) of part or all of the gain on such conversion.




8.12  Other
Allocations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Article VIII or any other provision of this Agreement, the following provisions
shall apply:




19







(a)  The
Members intend that the Company be treated as a partnership for federal income
tax purposes and, accordingly, the partnership tax provisions of the Code shall
apply to the Company and its Members.  The Members further intend that
each Member's distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or
item thereof) be determined and allocated in accordance with this Article VIII
to the fullest extent permitted by Code Section 704(b).  To preserve
the determinations and allocations provided for in this Article VIII, the
Manager is authorized and directed to allocate income, gain, loss, deduction, or
credit (or item thereof) arising in any year differently than otherwise provided
for in this Article VIII to the extent that such an allocation in the manner
otherwise provided for in this Article VIII would cause the determinations and
allocations of each Member's distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction
or credit (or item thereof) to contravene code Section 704(b).  Any
allocation made pursuant to this Section 8.12 shall be a complete substitute for
any allocation otherwise provided for in this Article VIII, and no amendment of
this Agreement or approval of any Member shall be required.




(b)  In making
any allocation (the "new allocation") under this Section 8.12, the Manager may
act only after having been advised by the Company's accountants that, under code
Section 704(b), (i) the new allocation is necessary, and (ii) the new allocation
is the minimum modification of the allocations otherwise provided for in this
Article VIII needed to assure that, either in the then-current year or in any
preceding year, each Member's distributive share of income, gain, loss,
deduction, or credit (or item thereof) is determined and allocated in accordance
with this Article VIII to the fullest extent permitted by Code Section
704(b).




(c)  If a net
decrease in Company Minimum Gain occurs during a Fiscal Year so that an
allocation is required by Regulation 1.704-2(f), each Member shall be specially
allocated items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent
years) equal to his share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain as
determined by Regulation 1.704-2(g)(2).  Such allocations shall be
made in a manner and at a time that will satisfy Regulation 1.704-2(f), or the
corresponding provisions of subsequently adopted Regulations, in order that the
allocations provided for in this Article VIII will be recognized for federal
income tax purposes.




(d)  If a net
decrease in the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain occurs during any Fiscal
Year, any Member who has a share of such Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain
(as determined in the same manner as partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain under
Regulation X.704-2(i)(5)) shall be specially allocated items of income or gain
for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) equal to his share of
the net decrease in the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain in the manner and
to the extent required by Regulation 1.704-2(i)(4).




20







(e)  If a
Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation, or distribution
described in Regulation 1.704-1(b) (2) (ii-) (d) (4), (5) or (6), any of which
causes or increases an Adjusted Deficit Capital Account Balance in such Member's
capital account, he will be specially allocated items of income and gain in an
amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit balance created or
increased by such adjustment, allocation, or distribution as quickly as
possible.




(f)  If a
Member has an Adjusted Deficit Capital Account Balance at the end of a Fiscal
Year, such Member shall be allocated items of income and gain in the amount of
such Adjusted Deficit Capital Account Balance as quickly as possible to
eliminate it.




(g)  Nonrecourse
Deductions shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their
respective Percentages, and any Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated
to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member
Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in
accordance with Regulation 1.704-2(i)(1).




(h)  If the
Manager is required by Subsection 8.12(a), 8.12(c), 8.12(d), 8.12(e), 8.12(f),
8.12(q) or 8.12(h) to make any new allocation in a manner other than as provided
for in this Article VIII without regard thereto, then the Manager shall, insofar
as it is permitted to do so by Code Section 704(b), allocate income, gain, loss,
deduction or credit (or item thereof) arising in the current Fiscal Year (or
subsequent Fiscal Years, it necessary) in order to bring the proportions of
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or item thereof) allocated to the
Members as nearly as possible to the proportion otherwise contemplated by this
Article VIII without regard thereto; provided that Nonrecourse Deductions shall
not be taken into account except to the extent Company Minimum Gain is reduced,
and Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall not be taken into account except to the
extent Member Minimum Gain has been reduced and provided further that such
Nonrecourse Deductions and Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall in no event be
taken into account to the extent the Manager reasonably determines that such
allocations will likely be offset by future allocations under Subsection 8.12(c)
or 8.12(d).




(i)  Allocations
made by the Manager under this Section 8.12 in reliance on the advice of the
Company's accountants are deemed made pursuant to the Manager's fiduciary
obligation to the Company and the Members.




(j)  To the
extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to
Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulation
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining capital accounts,
the amount of such adjustment to the capital accounts shall be treated as an
item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if
the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially
allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their
capital accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such
Regulations.




21







8.13  Special
Definitions.  As used in Section 8.12, the following terms,
where capitalized, shall have the meanings ascribed to them below in this
Section 8.13.




"Adjusted
Deficit Capital Account Balance" means, with respect to any Member, any deficit
balance in such Member's capital account as of the end of the relevant Fiscal
Year, (1) increased by any amounts such Member is obligated to restore under
Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c), plus such Member's share of Company Minimum
Gain and such Member's share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, and (2)
decreased by the items described in Regulation 1,704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and
(6).




"Nonrecourse
Deductions" has the meaning set forth in Regulation 1.704-2(c).




"Member
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain" means the amount, with respect to each Member
Nonrecourse Debt, equal to the Company Minimum Gain that would result if such
Member Nonrecourse Debt were treated as a nonrecourse liability of the Company,
determined in accordance with Regulation 1,704-2(i)(3).




"Member
Nonrecourse Debt" has the meaning set forth in Regulation
1.704-2(b)(4).




"Member
Nonrecourse Deductions" has the meaning set forth in Regulation
1.704-2(i)(2).




"Company
Minimum Gain" means an amount determined in accordance with Regulation
1,704-2(d) by computing, with respect to each Company nonrecourse liability (as
defined in Regulation 1.752-1(a)(2)), the amount of gain (of whatever character)
realized by the Company if (in a taxable transaction) it disposed of property
subject to such liability in full satisfaction thereof, and by then aggregating
the amounts so computed.




8.14  Excess
Liabilities.  For purposes of calculating the Members' shares
of excess nonrecourse liabilities (within the meaning of Regulation
1.752-3(a)(3)), the Members shall be deemed to share Profits in proportion to
their respective Percentages.




ARTICLE
IX.









Exculpation and
Indemnification




9.1  Exculpation.  No
Manager or Member, and no officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or
of a Manager or Member, shall be liable for the acts or obligations of the
Company, unless he shall have expressly assumed such liability.




22







9.2           Indemnification.  Except
as otherwise provided in this Article IX, the Company shall indemnify any
Manager, any Member, any officer, manager, or director of a Manager or Member,
and any director or officer of the Company, and may indemnify any employee who
is not an officer, manager or director of the Company or of the Manager or
Member, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to a
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal (other
than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason that such person is
or was a manager, member, officer, director or employee of the Company or of a
Manager or Member, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, but only if
the person acted in good faith and in a manner that such person believed to be
in the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to a criminal action or
proceeding, if such person believed his conduct was not unlawful.  Any
indemnification permitted under this Section 9.2 shall (unless ordered by a
court) be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case, upon a
determination that the indemnification is proper under the circumstances because
the person to be indemnified has met the applicable standard of conduct and upon
an evaluation of the reasonableness of expenses and amount paid in
settlement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification shall
be provided to any person for or in connection with (i) the receipt of a
financial benefit to which such person is not entitled, (ii) voting for or
assenting to a Distribution to Members in violation of this Agreement or the
Act, or (iii) a knowing violation of law.




Advancement.  Reasonable
expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by any Manager, Member, officer,
director or manager of a Manager or Member and any officer, manager or director
of the Company who may be eligible for indemnification under this Section 9.2 in
defending a proceeding shall be advanced by the Company on behalf of such person
(by paying such expenses on the person's behalf or by reimbursement) prior to
the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, and
may be advanced by the Company on behalf of an employee who is not an officer,
manager or director of the Company, Manager or Member, in accordance with this
paragraph.   A person requesting advancement of such expenses
must provide to the Company an undertaking, which may be unsecured, to repay any
expenses advanced by the Company if it shall ultimately be determined that such
person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company and provide a written
affirmation of that person's good faith belief that he or she has met the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company as authorized
in this section. An advancement of expenses will be authorized by the Company
only if a determination is made on behalf of the Company that the facts then
known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification of
the person making a request for advancement of expenses under this section
because the person has met the standard of conduct expressed in the first
paragraph (Indemnification) of this Section 9.2.  Such authorizations
and determinations shall be made:  (1) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors not at the time parties to the
proceeding; or (2) if such a quorum cannot be obtained, then by a majority vote
of a committee of the board, duly designated to act in the matter by a majority
vote of the full board (in which designation directors who are parties may
participate), consisting solely of director(s) not at the time parties to the
proceeding;


23


or (3) by
special legal counsel, selected by the board of directors or a committee thereof
by vote as set forth herein, or, if the requisite quorum of the full board
cannot be obtained therefor and such committee cannot be estab­lished, by a
majority vote of the full board (in which selection directors who are parties
may participate); or (4) by the Members.  Advancements of expenses
will be made promptly as incurred upon submission of evidence of those expenses
reasonably acceptable to the Company, subject to the Company's reserved right to
determine the reasonableness of the amounts of any such expenses.  The
determination of reasonableness of expenses requested to be advanced on behalf
of a person shall be made in the same manner as specified above or by any person
to whom the Board of Directors, committee, special legal counsel or Member, as
the case may be, may delegate such duty.

Winding-Up




11.1  Procedure.  Upon
termination of the Company, the Manager shall conclude the affairs of the
Company.  The assets of the Company may be liquidated or distributed
in kind, as determined by the Manager.  To the extent Company assets
cannot either be sold without undue loss or readily divided for distribution in
kind to the Members, the Company may, as determined by the Manager, convey those
assets to a trust or other suitable holding entity established for the benefit
of the Members in order to permit the assets to be sold without undue loss and
the proceeds thereof distributed to the Members at a future date.  The
legal form of the holding entity, the identity of the trustee or other
fiduciary, and the terms of its governing instrument shall be determined by the
Manager.




11.2  Application of
Assets.  Upon the winding-up of the Company, the assets of the
Company shall first be applied to the payment of, or to a reserve for the
payment of, Company liabilities (including such provision for contingent or
unforeseen liabilities as the Manager deems appropriate), and then shall be
distributed to the Members.  In accordance with their respective
capital accounts (after all such accounts shall have been adjusted for all
allocations pursuant to Section 8.2 and for all distributions pursuant to
Subsection 8.3(a)).  If Company assets are distributed in kind, the
assets so distributed shall be valued at their then-current fair-market values
and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation in value of such assets shall be
allocated to the Members' respective capital accounts in the manner described in
Article VIII as if such assets had been sold, and such assets shall then be
distributed to the Members in accordance with their respective positive capital
accounts as so adjusted.

Assignability of
Interests




12.1  Permitted
Assignments.




(a)  Subject
to all further applicable restrictions recited in Section 12.3, a Member may
assign (and/or pledge) his interest in the Company, in whole or in part with,
and only with, the discretionary consent of the Manager and Majority
Interest.




(b)  No
assignment (and no execution of any pledge) under this Section 12.11 shall of
itself substitute the assignee (or pledgee) as a Member, and such assignment
(and such execution of any pledge made) shall entitle the assignee (or pledgee)
to none of the rights of a Member, whether under this Agreement or under the
Act, other than the right to receive (to the extent assigned) the Distributions
to which the assigning (or pledging) Member would otherwise be
entitled.




25







12.2  Admission of
Assignees.




(a)  Subject
only to Subsections 12.2(b) and, 12.2(c), an assignee shall not be admitted as a
Member, unless the assignee shall have received the discretionary consent of the
Manager and Majority Interest, with both the determination of Majority Interest
to be made without regard to the interest or holdings of the assigning
Member.  As a condition of its consent, the Manager may require a
substitute Member to pay the legal and other costs incurred by the Company in
effecting his admission.  If admitted, the substitute Member shall
have, to the extent assigned, all of the rights and powers, and shall be subject
to all the restrictions and liabilities, of a Member. In addition, the assignee
shall provide the Company with the information and agreements that the Manager
deems necessary in connection with the assignment, including written
acknowledgement binding the assignee to this Agreement as a Member
thereof.




(b)  No
Manager or Member shall be called upon to approve the admission of the Trustee
as a Member, and such admission shall be implemented without further action, if
the Trustee (i) has executed (and delivered to the Manager) a memorandum binding
itself to this Agreement as a Member thereof, and (ii) has provided the Manager
with written confirmation that (A) the Trustee has been pledged Barden's equity
interest in the Company, (B) the Trustee has duly succeeded to such interest
pursuant to the terms governing such pledge, (C) any cure period afforded Barden
has expired, and (D) the Trustee wishes to become a Member in the stead of
Barden.




(c)  In the
case of the proposed admission of any assignee of Barden as a Member, the
procedures described in Subsection 12.2(a) shall, with the following exception,
be implemented.  All Members shall be entitled to vote on the proposed
admission, and, consequently, the consent of the Majority Interest shall be
determined with regard to the interests and holdings of all Members, including
those of the assigning Member.




12.3  General
Restrictions.  In addition to the foregoing transfer
restrictions, no Member shall sell, assign, transfer, exchange, mortgage,
pledge, grant, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Company
(a) without the prior discretionary consent of all the Members, if the
assignment would terminate the Company within the meaning of Code Section
708(b), and (b) without an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory
to the Company that registration is not required under the Securities Act of
1933 and applicable state law (unless this requirement (b) is waived by the
Manager).  In no event shall any Member assign his interest in the
Company if such assignment would (i) violate any applicable state or federal
securities law, (ii) result in any direct or indirect interest in the Company
being held, on or before December 31, 1996, by a person that is not a resident
of Indiana for purposes of SEC Rule 147, (iii) violate the Articles, or (iv) run
afoul of any requirement (or fail to meet with any necessary approval) of the
Indiana Gaming Commission or of any statute granting the Commission its
jurisdiction.  The members acknowledge that their interests in the
Company have not been registered under the securities laws of any jurisdiction
and agree that such interests will not be transferred without appropriate
registration or an exemption therefrom.




26







12.4  Regulatory
Restrictions.  In addition to the foregoing transfer
restrictions, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, no interest in the Company shall be sold, assigned, donated or
otherwise transferred (whether or not such conveyance results in a substitution
or admission of a Member), unless such transfer is in compliance with the rules
of the Commission, including any successor proposed or final rules.

Company, so long as (A) the redemption price is equal to the affected investor's
capital account, (B) such payment is made in cash within 12 months thereafter,
and (C) written advice has been received from the relevant Regulatory Authority
referencing the affected Member and the jeopardy generated by his affiliation,
and




(ii)  the
Company shall, in lieu of any action for damages, redeem the interest in the
Company held by any other Member who shall have breached any covenant set forth

15.2 is or has become materially false, so long as (A) such breach or
misrepresentation remains uncured for 30 days after the date of the election,
