                     EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT/SHARING AGREEMENT

                  THIS EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT/SHARING AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is
executed as of this 22nd day of October 2001, by and between The Majestic Star
Casino, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company ("Majestic Star"), and

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

                  WHEREAS, Majestic Star employs certain executives and other
employees, and desires to pay Employee Expenses (as defined below) on the terms
and conditions set forth herein; and

                  WHEREAS, Majestic Star and Majestic Investor Holdings desire
to memorialize their agreement with respect to the payment and reimbursement of
Employee Expenses;

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants and agreements herein set forth, the parties do hereby agree as
follows:

                  1. Majestic Star agrees to pay all costs and expenses of
executives and certain other employees agreed to by the parties, including, but
not limited to, salaries, bonuses, benefit payments, insurance, supplies,
certain cost savings resulting from synergies and such other costs and expenses
listed on Exhibit A (collectively, "Employee Expenses"). All Employee Expenses
shall be itemized on Exhibit A and shall set forth the actual or estimated costs
of each item. The parties may amend Exhibit A in accordance with the following
procedures on a monthly basis. Majestic Star shall send to Majestic Investor
Holdings the proposed amendment, which shall also set forth a proposed effective
date. Majestic Investor Holdings shall have three (3) business days to object to
such proposed amendment, and in the event that there is no objection, the
proposed amendment shall be effective on the effective date set forth therein.
In the event that Majestic Investor Holdings shall object, the parties shall
negotiate in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to such amendment. In
the event that no agreement is reached, (i) the parties may continue this
Agreement without the proposed amendment or (ii) either party may terminate this
Agreement upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice.

                  2. Majestic Investor Holdings agrees to reimburse Majestic
Star for 60% (the "Reimbursement Percentage") of all Employee Expenses paid by
Majestic Star (the "Reimbursement Payment"). Such Reimbursement Payment shall be
paid to Majestic Star on or prior to the first day of each month. In the event
such Reimbursement Payment is not paid to Majestic Star by such date, Majestic
Star may charge Majestic Investor Holdings a late payment equal to 1.5% of the
late Reimbursement Payment and interest thereon at an annualized rate of 10% per
annum. The parties may modify the Reimbursement Percentage from time to time in
<PAGE>
accordance with the following procedures: (i) a party may request modification
to the Reimbursement Percentage upon at least three (3) days prior written
notice to the other party; (ii) during such three-day period, (A) the other
party may agree to such modification (whereby the modification shall become
effective as of the date set forth in the notice) or (B) the other party may
refuse to agree to such modification (whereby the modification shall not be
effective and the parties shall negotiate in good faith as to a different
modification, which shall become effective if and when an agreement is reached);
and (iii) in the event there is no response from the other party within the
three day period described above, the proposed modification shall become
effective as of the date set forth in the notice.

                  3. Upon request, Majestic Star shall provide Majestic Investor
Holdings access to any and all records reasonably related to Executive Expenses
paid by Majestic Star and partially reimbursed by Majestic Investor Holdings
pursuant to this Agreement.

                  4. Subject to Section 1, this Agreement may be terminated by
either party upon thirty (30) days prior written notice.

                  5.       (a) This Agreement sets forth the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This
Agreement may not be modified, waived, terminated or amended, except expressly
by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

                           (b) This Agreement may be assigned or pledged in
whole or in part by a party with the consent of the other parties.

                           (c) In the event that any provision of this Agreement
shall be held to be void or unenforceable in whole or in part, the remaining
provisions of this Agreement and the remaining portion of any provision held
void or unenforceable in part shall continue in full force and effect.

                           (d) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
notice given hereunder shall be deemed sufficient if delivered personally or
sent by registered or certified mail to the address of the party for whom

address as such party may hereinafter specify by written notice to the other
party.

                           (e) No waiver by any party of any breach of any
provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a continuing waiver or a waiver of
any preceding or succeeding breach of such provision or of any other provision
herein contained.

                           (f) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana.

    which Lease, Lessee hereby represents to Lessor, was recorded on June 19,

<PAGE>

Gentlemen:

     The undersigned certify and represent unto PERS, Fremont, Sundance, and
Lincoln, in respect of the Lease, as follows:

     (i)   The undersigned are owners of record of the Premises, and each of
them certifies such on behalf of himself or herself only and that he or she is
duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease Amendment, Estoppel
Certificate and Consent to Assignment.

     (ii)  The undersigned, collectively, are the current Lessor under the
Lease, and each of them certifies, on behalf of himself or herself only, that he
or she has not assigned or agreed to assign his or her interest as a Lessor
under the Lease in whole or in part. The current address for notices, demands,
and communications to the Lessor under the Lease is as follows:

           Mr. John A. Kramer
           231 North Glenroy Place
           Los Angeles, California 90049

                     and

           Ms. Julie LaMoyne Nolen
           2549 Malabar Avenue
           Las Vegas, Nevada 89121

                     and

           Ms. Betty Bennett and
           Mr. Richard James Tinkler
           1228-G Westlake Boulevard
           Westlake Village, California 91361

     (iii) To the best knowledge of the undersigned, the M.B. Dalitz Revocable
Trust is the current Lessee under the Lease and is entitled to all rights and
benefits of the Lessee under the Lease.

     (iv)  The Leased Property is the Premises as set forth above.

     (v)   Attached hereto as Exhibit "A", and incorporated herein by this
reference, is a true, correct and complete copy of the Lease, as in effect as of
the date hereof; and the Lease constitutes the entire agreement between Lessor
and Lessee and has not been in any respect modified, altered or amended, except
as set forth above.

                                       2
<PAGE>
          (vi)  The Lease is in full force and effect, and, to the best of
Lessor's knowledge and belief, the Lessee is not in any respect in default
under the terms and provisions of the Lease (nor is Lessor aware of any fact or
condition which, with notice or the passage of time or both, will become such a
default); provided, however, that Lessor does not waive its right to assert a
default under the terms and provisions of the Lease for any default occurring
after the date hereof. In the event that, unbeknownst to Lessor, Lessee is in
fact in default under the Lease as of the date hereof, Lessor's remedies with
respect to any such existing default shall be limited to an action for damages
and/or specific performance against Lessee and/or Fremont, and Lessor shall not
terminate the Lease on account of any such existing default.

          (vii) Lessee has accepted possession of the Premises and is paying
rent on a current basis.

          (vii) The term of the Lease commenced on September 1, 1978, and,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease, will end on August 31, 2077.

          (ix)  The rent under the Lease is currently $8,339.51 per month,
subject from time to time to adjustment as provided in the Lease and as
provided for below. Such amount is to be paid to the parties (with one-third of
said amount being paid to each of the three parties comprising Lessor) and at
the places set forth in (ii) above, subject to change of such parties and
places as  provided in the Lease. Without limitation of any other payment
or other obligations of Lessee under the Lease, Lessee also must pay all real
property taxes assessed against the Premises.

          (x)   To the best of Lessor's knowledge and belief, Lessor has no
present set-offs, claims or defenses to the enforcement of the Lease and no
present reason, claim, or grounds to terminate the Lease or declare a default
thereunder. In the event that, unbeknownst to Lessor, Lessor in fact has a
present set-off, claim or defense to the enforcement of the Lease or a present
reason, claim, or ground to terminate the Lease or declare a default thereunder
as of the date hereof, Lessor's remedies with respect to the enforcement of any
same shall be limited to an action for damages and/or specific performance
against Lessee and/or Fremont, and Lessor shall not terminate the Lease on
account thereof.

          (xi)  The sum of $8,337.51, as and for rent, and the sum of $0, as
and for other charges, have been paid by Lessee in advance for the period from
August 1, 1987 to August 31, 1987.

          (xii) No portion of any security deposit has been applied to cure any
default under the Lease.
<PAGE>
          (xiii)    To the best of Lessor's knowledge and belief, (a) there are
no uncured defaults by Lessee under the Lease, and (b) the insurance presently
maintained by the Lessee complies with all requirements of the Lease.

          (xiv)     Lessor hereby approves and consents to the assignment of
Lessee's interest in the Premises and Lessee's interest in the Lease by Lessee
to Fremont; provided, however, that such approval and consent shall not release
any obligation of Lessee or any other person or entity under the Lease, that,
Notwithstanding such approval and consent, Lessee and any other persons and
entities liable under the Lease shall remain fully liable for the obligations
of the Lessee under the Lease during the remaining term of the Lease, and that
Fremont shall assume the obligations of the Lease as hereinafter provided for
from and after the effective date of Lessee's assignment to Fremont to and
until such time as Fremont shall properly assign (after obtaining any consent
or approval form Lessor that may then be required under the Lease) its interest
in the Premises and the Lease, at which time Fremont shall be released and
discharged from any and all obligations of the Lease that may thereafter accrue
and any further obligation to Lessor that may thereafter arise; and provided
further that no such release and discharge of Fremont from said Lease
obligations and no such consent and approval by Lessor to such an assignment by
Fremont of its interest in the Premises and the Lease shall release any
obligation of Lessee under the Lease.

          (xv)      Lessor's consent to and approval of said assignment shall
in no manner be construed to constitute a subordination of or agreement to
subordinate Lessor's reversionary interest in the Premises or a waiver or
modification of any rights of Lessor under the Lease and, in particular, and
without limitation of the foregoing, shall not be deemed a waiver of (a) the
provisions of the Lease that generally prohibit assignments, subleases and
other transfers of interests under the Lease or of the applicability of said
provisions to any other or future transaction, or (b) the provisions of the
hereinabove-mentioned Amendment to Kramer Ground Lease that provide, inter
alia, for PERS to maintain at all times a $1,000,000.00 cash fund as security
for the performance of Lessee's obligations under the Kramer, Ham and Masons
Ground Leases (as defined in said Amendment to Kramer Ground Lease), it being
expressly understood and agreed that said $1,000,000.00 cash fund shall remain
in existence, in accordance with the requirements of said Amendment to Kramer
Ground Lease, at all times during the remaining term of the Lease.

          (xvi)     Lessor has been advised that Lessee intends to sell and
assign Lessee's right, title and interest in and to, among other things, that
complex commonly know as the Sundance Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada (the
"Sundance Property")

                                       4
<PAGE>
(including, without limitation, all of Lessee's right, title and interest in the
leasehold estate in the Premises pursuant to the Lease, except that Lessee shall
continue to remain liable to Lessor under the Lease) to Fremont pursuant to a
certain Purchase Agreement (hereinafter, "the Purchase Agreement") a copy of
which Purchase Agreement, as amended, has been furnished to Lessor, and Lessor
has been further advised that PERS and Fremont have required the delivery of
this Lease Amendment, Estoppel Certificate and Consent to Assignment by the
Lessor in connection with such acquisition. However, it is understood and agreed
that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3 of the Purchase
Agreement, as amended, or otherwise, Lessor's execution of this Lease Amendment,
Estoppel Certificate and Consent to Assignment shall not constitute an agreement
on the part of Lessor to consent to any further amendment to or assignment,
sublease or other transfer of the Lease, any refinancing of any indebtedness
relating to the Premises or any other transaction other than Lessee's assignment
of the Lease to Fremont as contemplated herein and the amendment to the Lease
hereunder to increase the basic monthly rental under the Lease, as provided for
below, and Lessee, Freemont and all other signatories hereto and persons and
entities mentioned herein, by signing or accepting the benefits of this
document, acknowledge and agree that Lessor is undertaking no obligation to
agree to any such thing.

          (xvii) So long as the same may be lawful, Lessor approves of the
nature and the use, as a hotel and gambling casino with related restaurant and
bar facilities, of all improvements placed on the Premises and related property,
including the contiguous nature of the Sundance Hotel and Casino and the parking
structure, and the Pioneer Citizen's Bank of Nevada building, and their use in
conjunction with adjacent properties.

          In consideration for Lessor's consenting hereunder to the assignment
of Lessee's interest in the Premises and the Lease to Fremont, it is agreed by
Lessor, Lessee and Fremont that, effective on the date as of which said
assignment becomes effective:

               (a) The basic monthly rental under the Lease shall be increased
from $8,337.51 to $8,545.95, subject to further increase or decrease as and when
provided for in paragraph III(b) of the Lease;

               (b) For purposes of applying, from and after the date as of which
said assignment becomes effective, the provisions of paragraph III(b)(4) of the
Lease (pertaining to cost-of-living increases in the basic monthly rental under
the lease), the base rent provided for in paragraph III(a) of the Lease shall be
deemed to be $61,500.00 per year (but the base Consumer Price Index of 196.7
referenced in said paragraph III(b)(4) shall not be adjusted or otherwise
affected by reason thereof); and

                                       5
<PAGE>
               (c) For purposes of applying, from and after the date as of
which said assignment becomes effective, the provisions of paragraph III(b)(5)
of the Lease (pertaining to the minimum basic monthly rental under the lease),
the minimum base rent under the Lease shall be deemed to be $61,500.00 per year.

In the event that Lessee's assignment to Fremont shall become effective on
other than the first day of a calendar month, then the increase in the basic
monthly rental provided for in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph shall be
prorated for that month based on the number of days in that month occurring on
or after the date on which such assignment becomes effective. Expect as amended
by this paragraph, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect in
accordance with its terms.

          As required by Sections 3 and 12 of the Purchase Agreement by and
between Fremont as "Buyer" and Lessee as "Seller" for the purchase and sale of
the Sundance Property, the increase in the basic monthly rental under the Lease
from $8,337.51 to $8,545.95, or $208.44, and any increase or decrease allocable
to the amount of said increase in the basic monthly rental as and when provided
for in paragraph III(b) of the Lease, shall be offset monthly by Fremont
against monthly rent due and payable to Lessee pursuant to Section 12.02.5 of
the Purchase Agreement and the Parking Lot Lease, which off-set shall be
provided for by Amendment to Section 12.02.5 of the Purchase Agreement and by
the terms of the Parking Lot Lease for corresponding reductions of the monthly
rental payment by Fremont as "Buyer" to Lessee as "Seller" pursuant to the
Parking Lot Lease. The provisions of the preceding sentence are matters between
Lessee and Fremont that shall be of no concern to Lessor and shall not affect
either Lessee's or Fremont's liability (as elsewhere provided for herein) for
the payment of the full rental that may be payable from time to time under the
Lease, as amended hereby.

          Lessor makes the above statements for the benefit and protection of
Fremont, Sundance and Lincoln, knowing that they will rely on the same in
acquiring the right, title, and interest of Lessee in and to the leasehold
estate upon the Premises pursuant to the Lease and that PERS will rely on the
same in approving Fremont's acquisitions of the Sundance Property under the
Purchase Agreement subject to certain indebtedness to PERS on the Premises.
However, this Lease Amendment, Estopel Certificate and Consent  to Assignment
shall be effective upon, and only upon, the

                                       6
<PAGE>
delivery to Lessor of an original or counterparts hereof duly executed by all
persons and entities whose signatures are provided for below. This document may
be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original hereof, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
document.

          DATED as of September 23, 1987.

                                     RENTAL

     (a) Lessee covenants, promises and agrees to pay to as basic rent for said
leased premises the total sum of Five Million Eight Hundred Ninety-five
Thousand Dollars, as follows: Forty Five Thousand Dollars ($45,000.00) per year
payable at the rate of Three Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($3,750.00)
per month during the first three years of the term hereof, and thereafter Sixty
Thousand Dollars ($60,000.00) per year payable in basic monthly installments of
Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) per month (hereinafter referred to as the
"basic monthly rental"). All rent payments shall become due and payable in
advance on the 1st day of each and every month and shall be paid on or before
the 15th day of each and every month, commencing on September 1, 1978, and on
the 1st day of each succeeding calendar month in advance until all rents herein
reserved have been

                                      -2-                     EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 2
<PAGE>
fully paid. All rents shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of
America at Las Vegas, Nevada, or such other place as Lessors may from time to
time designate upon thirty (30) days previous written notice to Lessee.

     Lessor and Lessee agree that the above rent shall be subject to adjustment
in accordance with the provisions of the succeeding paragraph (b).

     (b) Lessee shall, at all times during the term of this lease, pay the
monthly rental as provided in the terms of this lease, and such rental shall be,
and continue to be, the minimum basic monthly rental paid by Lessee to Lessors
hereunder, irrespective of any change of economic conditions in the United
States and/or the State of Nevada: provided, however, that such minimum basic
monthly rental shall be increased, but not decreased below the original basic
rental of Three Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($3,750.00) during the
first three (3) years of the term and thereafter Five Thousand Dollars
($5,000.00) per month, under the following circumstances and conditions:

          (1) At the present time there is being issued by the United States
Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, a Consumer-Price Index, For All
Urban Consumers-U.S. City Average, based upon the average 1967 equalling 100
points.

          (2) It is stipulated and agreed, for the purpose of this lease
agreement, that the United States Consumer Price Index for all Urban
Consumers-U.S. City Average, average as of July 1, 1978, is the sum of 196.7
points.

          (3) At the expiration of the first thirty six (36) months of the term
of this lease, the Consumer Price Index For All Urban Consumers-U.S. City
Average last issued by said United States Department of Labor closest to such

                                      -3-                    EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 3
<PAGE>
expiration date shall be examined by the parties hereto, and if the said
Consumer Price Index shall be 196.7 points or more, then and in such event the
increase of rent in addition to said Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000.00) per
year, which shall be due for the fourth (4th) and successive years, shall be
one percent (1%) of $60,000.00 for each 1.967 points increase above 196.7
points, which is the average index point number as of July, 1978. The increase
at that time added to the basic yearly rental of $60,000.00 shall continue to
be paid by Lessee for the next thirty (30) months, such increase to be paid in
equal monthly installments in the same manner as is hereinabove provided in
regard to the regular rental.

     (4) At the end of each thirty (30) month period following the first three
(3) year period of this lease, the Consumer Price Index For All Urban
Consumers-U.S. City Average shall again be examined in like manner as stated
above, and if it is found at the date of examination of the last index issued
nearest the date of the expiration of such thirty (30) month period that the
price index has increased above 196.7 or fallen below 196.7, then the rent
shall be increased over or reduced toward the base rent at the rate of one
percent (1%) for each 1.967 point increase above or reduction below 196.7 and
shall continue at this rate for the next thirty (30) month period, such
increase or decrease to be paid in equal monthly installments in the same
manner as is herein provided in regard to the regular rental.

     (5) In no event shall the rent under this lease ever be less than SIXTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($60,000.00) per year for any year of the term hereof
following the first three (3) years.

                                      -4-                     EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 4
<PAGE>
          (6) If at the expiration of three (3) years from the commencement of
the term hereof, or at the expiration of any of the following thirty (30) month
periods, there is no United States Department of Labor Consumer Price Index
published, but such an index is published by some other agency or department of
the United States Government, then such latter index shall be used in lieu of
the United States Department of Labor Consumer Price Index, after proper
adjustment for changes made in compiling such index in order to fulfill the
intent of the parties to maintain the purchasing power of the rentals reserved.

          (7) If there is no similar or comparable index published by any agency
of the United States Government, then Lessor and Lessee shall endeavor to arrive
at a fair average, and if they are unable so to do, then either Lessors or
Lessee may by written notice elect to submit the matter for determination to a
board of arbitration, composed of qualified economists holding degrees of Ph.D.
in economics, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, with a
view that Lessor shall be compensated as accurately as possible as heretofore
provided, in accordance with the increase in cost of living in order to maintain
the purchasing power of the rents reserved.

     (c) If Lessee shall default in making any payment aside from rent required
to be made by Lessee, or shall default in performing any term, covenant, or
condition of this Lease on the part of Lessee to be performed, which shall
involve the expenditure of any money by Lessee, and which shall remain uncured
for a period of fifteen (15) days following the mailing of or giving of written
notice by Lessor to Lessee, Lessor, at Lessor's option may, but shall not be
obligated to make such payment, or, on behalf of Lessee, expend such sums as may
be necessary to perform and fulfill

                                      -5-                     EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 5
<PAGE>
such terms, covenants, or conditions, and any and all sums so expended by
Lessor, with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from
the date of such expenditure, shall be and be deemed to be additional rent, in
addition to the fixed rent, and shall be repaid by Lessee to Lessor on demand,
but no such payment or expenditure by Lessor shall be deemed a waiver of
Lessee's default nor shall affect any other remedy of Lessor by reason of such
default.

     (d) In the event that federal, state or local laws and ordinances shall at
any time during the term hereof be modified so as to constitute casino gaming an
illegal activity, then and in that event only, the parties shall enter into
negotiations for the purpose of agreeing upon a renegotiated rental. If the
parties should be unable to agree upon such a rental within a period of ninety
(90) days, the matter shall either be referred to arbitration as provided in
paragraph III(b)(7) hereof in order to fix a new rental consistent with then
current economic value or terminate this lease in conformity with paragraph XII
hereof. During the period of any rental negotiations under this paragraph, III
(d), or during any period of time required for arbitration under this paragraph
III (d) the rental due shall be the basic rental referred to in paragraph III
(a) hereof.

     (1) Lessee agrees to accept the premises in the physical condition which
said premises and property exist at the commencement of this lease. During the
entire term hereof Lessor shall not be obligated to make any repairs or

during the term of this lease to construct buildings, make structural additions
and alterations, repairs, replacements or improvements in or to the real
property and the installation of fixtures which may be attached to said real

permanently attached to said real property shall upon the termination of this
lease, by operation of law or otherwise, become the property of Lessors, and
upon the termination of this lease Lessee shall not remove

directed by Lessor.

          (2) Prior to the commencement of construction and after Lessee shall
have obtained a building permit from the City of Las Vegas for the construction
of building or buildings herein described on the Land, Lessee shall furnish or
shall require its contractor to furnish Lessor a bond with a responsible surety
company authorized to do business in the State of Nevada for the completion of
such building or buildings, which bond shall inure to the benefit of the Lessor.
The manner and form of the bond may name other beneficiaries; but shall be in

          (3) The Lessee shall comply with, and shall require all contractors to

Building is situated; and/or any other body exercising similar functions, and
of all insurance companies writing policies covering the Demised Premises and
Proposed Building, or any part thereof, whether such laws, rules, requirements,
orders, directions, ordinances or regulations relating to structural
alteration, changes, additions, improvements or repairs, inside or outside,

Premises, or any buildings thereon, or to the vaults, passageways, franchises
or privileges appurtenant thereto or connected with the enjoyment thereof, or
to changes or requirements incident to or as a result of any use or occupation
thereof, or otherwise, and whether the same are enforced at the commencement of
the term hereof, or at any time in the future enacted or directed; and Lessee
shall pay all costs, expenses, claims, losses, damages, fines and penalties,
including reasonable counsel fees, that may in any manner arise out of or be
imposed because of the failure of Lessee to comply with these covenants.

     (5) If Lessee shall desire to contest the validity of any such law, rule,
requirement, order, direction, ordinance or regulation, Lessee may, at Lessee's
own cost and expense, carry on such contest and such noncompliance by Lessee
during such contest shall not be deemed a breach, provided that Lessee shall
indemnify the Lessor against the cost thereof and against all liability for any
costs, expenses, claims, losses, damages, fines or penalties, including
reasonable counsel fees, resulting from or incurred in connection with such
contest and noncompliance.

     (6) It is further understood and agreed that Lessee shall notify Lessor in
writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of construction of
any repairs or alterations upon said leased premises which are to cost in

<PAGE>
excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) and Lessors shall have the
right to record or otherwise give legal notice of non-responsibility on the
leased premises disclaiming any liability for such buildings, improvements,
repairs, additions or alterations.

                                       VI

                                   INSURANCE

     During the term hereof, Lessee shall, at Lessee's own cost and expense:

     (a) Keep the Proposed Building constructed upon the Demised Premises,
pursuant to the provisions hereof, and all alterations, changes, additions and
improvements insured for the benefit of Lessor against loss or damage by fire
(with extended coverage), in an amount equal to the full value thereof, all
policies of which shall provide that loss, if any, payable thereunder shall be
first to the restoration of the premises, so long as Lessee or his heirs or
assigns elect to restore, and then to Lessor, Lessee and any lienholders as
their respective interests may appear, and a copy of all such policies with
evidence by stamping or otherwise of the payment of the premiums thereon shall
be delivered to Lessor. All said policies shall be taken in responsible
companies authorized to do business in the State of Nevada.

     During the construction phase of the term during which time there shall
be no proprietary activities conducted by Lessee, Lessee shall secure and
maintain a policy of suitable construction injury or death or property damage
having limits of liability in the amount of at least Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000.00) in respect to injuries to any one person, and the amount
of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in respect to any one accident
or disaster, and at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00)

                                      -10-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 10

<PAGE>
for injury to property showing Lessor as beneficiaries.

     (b) At completion of the Building, and in any event prior to the occupancy
of the structures by Lessee, Lessee shall provide, at its own sole cost and
expense, and maintain in force during the entire term hereof for the benefit of
Lessor, general accident, public liability and elevator insurance, fully
protecting Lessor against any and all liability occasioned by accident or
disaster having limits of liability in an amount that is usual and customary for
similar structures and occupancies in the City of Las Vegas, Nevada, but in no
event shall such limits of liability be lower than Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000.00) single limit. The insurance shall be reexamined by the parties
from time to time but no less often than every three (3) years during the term
hereof for the purpose of determining the limits of liability that are then
usual and customary for such structures and such occupancies in the City of Las
Vegas and the limits of liability for successive policies shall be adjusted in
conformity therewith.

         Lessee may provide the insurance herein required under a general or
master policy or policies which may apply to other properties adjacent to the
demised premises; however, Lessor shall at all times appear as an insured or
beneficiary thereunder, and a copy of all such policies showing payment by
Lessee of all premiums due shall be furnished Lessor at all times.

     (c) Twenty (20) days prior to the expiration of any policy or policies of
such insurance, Lessee shall pay the premiums for renewal insurance and deliver
to Lessor, copies of the original renewal policies with evidence by stamping or
otherwise of the payment of the premiums thereof, except that certificates
instead of the original renewal policies with respect to insurance referred to
in this Article may be delivered to Lessor, and if such premium, or any of them,

                                      -11-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 11
<PAGE>
shall not be so paid and the policies or certificates shall not be so
delivered, Lessor may procure and/or pay for the same, and the amount so paid
by Lessor, with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum
from the date of payment, shall become due and payable by Lessee as additional
rent with the next or any subsequent installment of fixed rent due after such
payment by Lessor; it being expressly covenanted that payment by Lessor of any
such premiums shall not be deemed to waive or release the default in the
payment thereof by Lessee or the right of Lessor to take such action as may be
permissible hereunder as in the case of default in the payment of fixed rent.

     (d) Lessee shall not violate or permit to be violated any of the
conditions or provisions of any of said policies, and Lessee shall so perform
and satisfy the requirements of the companies writing such policies.

                                      VII

                              LESSOR NONLIABILITY

     Lessor shall not in any event whatsoever be liable for any injury or
damage to any person happening on or about the Proposed Building to be

Proposed Building or the Demised Premises, or to any property of Lessee, or to
any property of any other person, firm, association or corporation on or about
the Proposed Building. Lessee shall indemnify and save harmless Lessor from and
against any and all liability and damages, and from and against any and all
suits, claims and demands of every kind and nature, including reasonable
counsel fees, by or on behalf of any person, firm, association or corporation,

     In the event of breach by Lessee of any of the covenants or other
provisions hereof on the part of Lessee to be kept and performed, Lessor,
besides any other rights or remedies Lessor may have, shall have the option and
right to re-enter the demised premises in accordance with law; and to remove
all persons and property, storing such property at any public warehouse at the
cost of and for the account of Lessee.

     A. Non-Payment of Rent.

        In the event of a breach resulting from non-payment of rent only, the
parties stipulate that Lessee's damages assertable pursuant to any remedy
Lessee may have at common law or under Chapter 40, N.R.S. arising out of such
re-entry shall be the sum of ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00); provided such
re-entry does not occur until the sixth (6th) day following service of a
written notice requiring payment of the rent or, in the alternative, surrender
of the demised premises.

     B. Breach of Covenant or Condition.

        In the event of a breach of any term, condition or covenant hereof
except PARAGRAPHS V(3)(4), XXI or XXII, the parties stipulate that Lessee's
damages assertable pursuant to any remedy Lessee may have at common law or
under Chapter 40, NRS, arising out of such re-entry shall be the sum of ONE
HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00) provided such re-entry does not occur until the sixth
(6th) day following service of a written notice to quit.

     C. Breach of Paragraphs V(3)(4), XXI or XXII.

        In the event of a breach of any provision of PARAGRAPHS V(3)(4), XXI or
XXII, the parties stipulate that Lessee's damages assertable pursuant to any
remedy Lessee may have at common law or under Chapter 40 of NRS, arising out of
such re-entry shall be the sum of ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00) provided such
re-entry does not occur until the fourth (4th) day following service of a
written notice to quit.

        Service as used in this PARAGRAPH VIII shall mean:

        (a) Delivering a copy to a natural Lessee or by delivery of a copy to
            the president, secretary, managing agent or resident agent of a
            corporate Lessee;

        (b) If the Lessee or its president, secretary, managing agent or
            resident agent are absent from the demised premises or their
            residence by delivering a copy to a person of suitable age and
            discretion at the demised premises, or such person's residence, and
            mailing a copy addressed to Lessee at Lessee's residence or the
            demised premises.

        Should Lessee become insolvent, make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or be adjudicated a bankrupt, this agreement and all rights
hereunder shall be deemed not an asset of such assignment, insolvent, or
bankrupt estate, and upon the occurrence of such an event, Lessor shall have
the option of terminating this lease.

        The waiver of any breach of any term, covenant or condition by Lessor
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any
other term, covenant or condition and any and all rights, remedies and options
given to Lessor in this Lease shall be cumulative and in

                                      -14-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 14

addition to and without waiver of or in derogation of any right or remedy given
to it under any law now or hereafter in effect.

                            REMEDIES - NONEXCLUSIVE

     The rights and remedies given to Lessor in this Lease are distinct,
separate and cumulative remedies, and no one of them, whether or not exercised
by Lessor, shall be deemed to be an exclusion of any of the others herein or
by law or equity provided.

                                       X

                              PRESUMPTIVE EVIDENCE

     In all cases hereunder, and in any suit, action or proceeding of any kind
between the parties, it shall be presumptive evidence of the fact of the
existence of a charge being due, if Lessor or Lessee shall produce a bill,
notice or certificate of any public official entitled to give such bill, notice
or certificate to the effect that such charge appears by writing and has not
been paid.

                                       XI

                                  NO ABATEMENT

     No diminution of the amount of space used by Lessee for whatever cause
including fire or destruction of premises shall entitle Lessee to any reduction
or abatement of fixed rent, or additional rent or other charges.

     In the event of partial or total destruction of the premises by fire or
other casualty and the Lessee shall elect not to rebuild, Lessee shall
nevertheless be responsible for payment of the balance of the rental herein
reserved for the term hereof and the balance of insurance proceeds, if any,
shall be distributed then to the Lessor, Lessee and any lienholder, in the
manner provided in VI(a) hereof.

                            TERMINATION, RESTORATION

     On the last day of the term hereof or the earlier termination thereof,
Lessee shall peaceably and quietly leave, surrender and give up to Lessor the
Demised Premises together with the proposed Building or any new building and all
alterations, changes, additions and improvements which may have been made upon
the Demised Premises (except furniture, furnishings, equipment and trade-
fixtures put in at the expense of Lessee), in thorough repair and good order and
safe condition. Lessor shall have sole and absolute discretion, however, to
order the Proposed Building, together with any replacement building,
alterations, and improvements to be demolished at Lessee's sole expense and the
land restored to its approximate undeveloped state at the time of the execution
hereof. In such event Lessee shall not be required to quit the Demised Premises
until such demolition and restoration is completed; provided, however that all
such demolition and restoration shall be completed no later than ninety (90)
days following the last day of the term hereof or such earlier termination, at
which time the Demised Premises, so restored, shall be the property of Lessor.

     On or before said termination date Lessee shall remove all of Lessee's
personal property from the Demised Premises and Proposed Building or new
building, and all property not so removed shall be deemed to have been abandoned
and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by
Lessor without notice to Lessee and without obligation to account therefor.
Lessee shall pay to Lessor the cost incurred by Lessor in removing selling,
storing, destroying or otherwise disposing of any such personal property; if the
Demised Premises and Proposed Building or any new building be not so
surrendered, or at Lessor's

                                      -16-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 16
<PAGE>
option demolished, Lessee shall make good to Lessor all damage which Lessor
shall suffer by reason thereof, and in addition shall indemnify Lessor from and
against all claims made by any succeeding tenant against Lessor, founded upon
delay by Lessee in delivering possession of the premises to such succeeding
tenant, so far as such delay is occasioned by the failure of Lessee to surrender
the premises or at Lessor's option, to demolish improvements. In the event
Lessor shall elect to order the Proposed Building or any other improvement
demolished and the land restored as hereinabove provided, Lessee shall have
ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice, to accomplish said demolition
and to restore the land.

                                      XIII

                                QUIET ENJOYMENT

     Lessor covenants that, if and so long as Lessee pays the fixed rent, and
other charges reserved in this Lease, and performs all of the terms, covenants
and conditions of this Lease on the part of Lessee to be performed, Lessee shall
quietly enjoy the Demised Premises subject, however, to the terms of this Lease.

                                      XIV

                              DEFAULTS, NONWAIVER

     Any default in the payment of the rent or other charges, or any failure of
Lessor to enforce the provisions of this Lease upon any default by Lessee, shall
not be construed as creating a custom of deferring payment or modifying in any
way the terms of this lease or as a waiver of Lessor's right to terminate this
Lease as herein provided, or otherwise to enforce the provisions hereof for any
subsequent default.

                                    GENERAL

          (a) Words of any gender in this Lease shall be held to include any
other gender and words in the singular number shall be held to include the
plural in the sense so required.

          (b) Whenever the Lessor's consent or approval to any act to be
performed by the Lessee is required under the terms of this Lease, the Lessor
agrees that its consent or approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

          (c) In the event suit is brought to enforce any provision hereof, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees as set by the
Court.

          (d) Lessee shall be entitled to take depreciation for federal and
state income tax purposes on the Proposed Building and any new buildings
constructed under the terms and provisions of this Lease as a replacement
thereof.

                                      XVI

                                     TAXES

     (1) The Lessee, in addition to the fixed rent provided for herein, shall
pay all taxes and assessments upon the leased property, and upon the buildings
and improvements thereon, which are assessed during the lease term. All taxes
assessed prior to but payable in whole or in installments after the lease term,
shall be adjusted and prorated, so that the Lessor shall pay its prorated share
for the period prior to the lease term and the Lessee shall pay its prorated
share for the lease term, which may come due subsequent to the lease term.

     (2) The Lessee shall furnish to the Landlord for its inspection, within 30
days after the date any amount is payable by the Lessee, as provided in this
article, official

                                      -18-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 18
<PAGE>
receipts of the appropriate taxing authority or other proof satisfactory to the
Lessor evidencing payment.

     (3) Lessee shall have the right, subject to any restrictions which any
leasehold mortgagee may hereafter make, and at his sole cost and expense (in his
own name or in the names of Lessor, or both, as he may deem appropriate) to
contest in good faith the imposition or amount of any such tax assessment, or
other charge payable by Lessee hereunder, and payment of same after final
adjudication of the legality and amount of the same shall be a sufficient
compliance with this covenant.

                                      XVII

                                  CONDEMNATION

     If during the continuance of this Lease, any portion of the Demised
Premises shall be appropriated for state or other public use, there shall be an
appropriate abatement or reduction of rental on account of such appropriation of
a part of said premises. Any compensation which may be awarded on account of any
such appropriation of any part of said premises shall be fairly allocated
between the fee and the leasehold estate in accordance with the damage or loss
suffered by each, according to law and rules of practice usual in such cases,
and such part of the award as may be fairly allocated to the leasehold estate
shall be paid to Lessee and the balance shall be paid to Lessor. If the premises
covered by this Lease be taken either in their entirety or such a substantial
extent that as a practical matter the premises cannot be used for the purpose
for which they are hereby leased by virtue of eminent domain or for any public
or quasi public use or improvement, separate awards for damages to Lessor and
Lessee shall be made in accordance with law and rules of practice usual in such
cases, and each of the parties shall be entitled to receive

                                      -19-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 19
<PAGE>
and retain such awards as shall be made to it. If there shall be a leasehold
mortgagee, however, the award for damages to Lessee shall be first applied in
liquidation of the leasehold mortgage and the balance thereof shall be retained
by Lessee. In such event, this Lease shall terminate and the rents herein
provided for shall abate as of the physical taking of the Leased Premises. Such
termination shall not affect the rights of the parties to the awards and both
Lessor and Lessee shall have the right to contest and appeal any condemnation or
award for their own account and at their own expense.

                                   INDEMNITY

     (1) The Lessor shall not be liable for any damage, nor shall this Lease be
affected, nor shall there be an abatement in or of the rent, by reason of any
failure of water supply, gas supply, electrical current, unless such failure
shall arise from or be due to negligence on the part of Lessor.

     (2) The Lessor shall not be liable for any damage, nor shall this Lease be
affected, nor shall there be any abatement in or of the rent by reason of any
curtailment of or interference with light or other incorporal hereditaments by
anybody other than the Lessor or caused by operations by or for the city in the
construction of any public or quasi public work, nor by reason of any space
taken to comply with any law, ordinance, or order of any governmental authority.
The Lessor shall not be obligated to perform in any way, manner or form, under
this lease, or by virtue hereof, other than as specifically in this Lease set
forth and provided.

     (3) The Lessee covenants to indemnify and save harmless the Lessor against
any and all claims arising from the conduct or management of or from any work or
thing whatsoever done in or about the Demised Premises or any building or

                                      -20-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 20

structure thereon or the equipment thereof during said term, or arising during
said term from any condition of any street or sidewalk adjoining the premises
or of any vaults, passageways or spaces therein or appurtenant thereto, or
arising from any act or negligence of the Lessee or any of its agents,
contractors or employees, or arising from any accident, injury or damage
whatsoever, to any person or persons, or to the property of any person,
persons, corporation or corporations, occurring during said term on, in, or
about the Leased Premises or on or under the sidewalks in front thereof, or the
lobby and common area, and from and against all costs, counsel fees, expenses
and liabilities incurred in or about any such claim or any action or proceeding
brought thereon; and in case any action or proceeding be brought against the
Lessor by reason of any such claim, the Lessee on notice from the Lessor, shall
resist and defend such action or proceeding by counsel satisfactory to the
Lessor.

ordinances of the city corporation applicable to said Leased Premises and to the

                                      -21-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 21
<PAGE>
construction, remodeling or repairing of the Proposed Building, and all
ordinances and requirements imposed by the health, sanitary or police
departments of the City of Las Vegas for the correction or abatement of any
nuisance or nuisances in, upon or connected with the said Leased Premises
during the term of Lease without expense to Lessor. Lessee further agrees to
take good care of the Leased Premises above mentioned and of the Proposed
Building and improvements within the same, and of all fixtures, and suffer no
waste, and at the expense of Lessee to keep said Leased Premises in good
repair, keep the plumbing work, closets, pipes and fixtures belonging thereto
in good repair and keep the water connections free from ice and other
obstructions to the satisfaction of the police and other municipal authorities
of the City of Las Vegas during the term of this Lease, and at the end or other
termination of the term to deliver up the Leased Premises with all improvements
thereon and therein in good order, natural wear and tear only excepted.

                                   ASSIGNMENT

     Lessee shall not assign any interest in this lease except for subleases of
less than all of the premises executed in the regular course of business of
Lessee or its assignee without first providing thirty (30) days' written notice
containing a verified current financial statement of the proposed assignee to
Lessor. Lessee shall have the right at any time to assign his interest under
this lease, so long as such written notice has been furnished Lessor and Lessor
has raised no objection based on the financial situation of the proposed
assignee--provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Lessee of
its obligations and duties under the terms and conditions of this lease, and any
assignee of this

                                      -22-                   EXHIBIT "B" PAGE 22
<PAGE>
lease shall expressly assume and by reason of such assignment shall be
considered as having assumed all of the obligations and duties of Lessee
hereunder unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by Lessee and Lessor
and Assignee.

     Lessor reserves at all times, however, the right to object in writing to
any assignment hereof within thirty (30) days of written notice by Lessee of his
intent to assign. Such objection shall only be based upon the fact that the net
worth of the proposed assignee is inferior to that of Lessee or the then
existing assignee. If such objection is made, the assignment shall not be
effective until it can be established that the net worth of the proposed
assignee is in fact equal to or greater than the Lessee or existing assignee.

                                     XXIII

                               OPTION TO PURCHASE

     In the event that Lessor shall desire to sell or assign this Lease, or the
Land, Lessor will notify Lessee in writing of the purchase price being offered
and the name of the offeror, and Lessee shall have thirty (30) days after
receiving such written notice in which to make a written offer to purchase said
Land or the Lease as the case might be from the Lessor at such purchase price
and on the same terms and conditions.

                                     ZONING

     It is mutually understood and agreed and warranted that the Land herein
demised and leased is zoned by the City of Las Vegas as required for the
buildings and improvements now located thereon, which warranty is a material and
essential element in making this Lease, and that if such zoning were to be
changed by the City of Las Vegas or other governing authority to prevent the
construction of the said Building,

<PAGE>
then and in that event, Lessee shall, at his option, have the right to terminate
this Lease, and the Lease shall become null and void, and no rent for the
remainder of the term of extension thereof as aforesaid shall become due to the
Lessor, their legal representatives or assigns.

                              PARTIES IN INTEREST

     It is further covenanted and agreed that all the expressions, terms,
conditions, provisions, agreements and warranties herein shall extend to and be
binding upon, or inure to the benefit of, as the case may be, each and every one
of the heirs, executors, administrators and assigns of Lessor and Lessee, as if
in every case expressed; and all the conditions, covenants and limitations of
this Agreement shall be and they are hereby covenants running with the Land.
