	 	(ii)	 	selecting and providing guidance as required
for the public relations personnel;

	 	(iii)	 	preparing and disseminating news releases for
trade and consumer publications, both national and international, it
being agreed that Owner and Manager shall coordinate with one another
on all public statements, whether written or oral and no matter how
disseminated, regarding their contractual relationship as set forth in
this Agreement and/or the performance by either of them of their
respective obligations hereunder; and

	 	(iv)	 	selecting an advertising agency, if any; and

     (n) coordinate the Hotel’s marketing program with Manager’s corporate marketing program
and include the Hotel in the same as appropriate.

     2.3 Transition Services. (1) At Owner’s election, exercisable at any time by written
notice to Manager, Manager shall continue to Operate the Hotel in order to minimize any potential
disruption to the Operation of the Hotel and facilitate the orderly transition of its operations to
a third party for a period of up to three hundred sixty-five (365) days following the effective
date of termination of this Agreement (the “Transition Period”); provided, however, that
Owner shall have the right to (i) terminate the Transition Period at any time on notice to Manager
of not less than thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as shall be necessary or advisable in
Owner’s sole, exclusive and nonreviewable discretion to prevent an adverse effect on any License of
Owner) and (ii) extend the Transition Period for an additional one hundred eighty (180) days if
Owner has not secured the requisite Approvals to permit Owner or a replacement manager to continue
to Operate the Hotel in a manner consistent with past practices. In addition to providing the
Management Services and provided that Owner pays the applicable Management Fees to Manager in
accordance with Article 9, Manager shall cooperate with Owner and the Successor Owner in
transitioning management of the Hotel to a replacement manager as described below by providing the
following services (the “Transition Services”) during the applicable Transition Period:

     (a) Promptly upon a request by Owner, or in any event at the end of the Transition
Period, Manager shall assign and deliver (and cause its Affiliates to assign and

deliver) to Owner or its designee all material permits, licenses, contracts and other
instruments relating to the Hotel which are in the name of Manager and/or any of its
Affiliates;

     (b) Promptly upon a request by Owner, or in any event at the end of the Transition
Period, Manager shall deliver (and cause its Affiliates to deliver) to Owner or its designee

Section 3.3;

     (c) Manager shall facilitate (and cause its Affiliates to facilitate) Owner’s efforts
to obtain all regulatory and other Approvals in connection with the Operation of the Hotel
(including the gaming components);

     (d) Manager shall facilitate (and cause its Affiliates to facilitate) the
implementation of such operational and systems changes as may be reasonably necessary to
permit the Hotel to operate as a stand-alone unit without continued reliance on any
centralized services provided by Manager or its Affiliates;

     (e) Manager hereby irrevocably consents (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates),
following Owner’s engagement of a replacement manager or commencement of self-managing of
the Hotel, to the extension by Owner or the Successor Owner of an offer of employment to any
person who (i) provides services exclusively to the Hotel, and (ii) is not a party to an
employment contract with Manager or its Affiliates;

     (f) Following Owner’s engagement of a replacement manager or commencement of
self-managing of the Hotel, Manager (i) shall cooperate with Owner or such replacement
manager in connection with the collection of any outstanding receiveables and remit to Owner
or such replacement manager any amounts collected directly by Manager with respect to such
receivables and (ii) if Owner’s share of premiums under any insurance policies maintained
through any group insurance program administered by Manager and its Affiliates shall have
been paid in advance, cause any unused portion thereof to be refunded to Owner;

     (g) Manager shall take and shall cause its Affiliates to take (subject to reimbursement
of Manager’s or its Affiliates’ Shared Expenses (or allocable portion thereof, as
applicable) and Actual Cost for doing so) such other and further preparatory steps as may be
reasonably requested by Owner to be performed by Manager or its Affiliates while Transition
Services are being provided to Owner by such entity or entities as may be reasonably
required to facilitate the continuation of operations from and after the Effective Date; and

     (h) Manager shall reasonably cooperate (and shall cause its Affiliates reasonably to
cooperate) with Owner and the Successor Owner in carrying out a transition to a replacement
manager of the Hotel (including (i) providing such transition-related cooperation and
assistance that has not been historically provided by Manager but that is reasonably
necessary to effect a transition to a replacement manager of the Hotel and that is within
the capabilities of Manager or its Affiliates to provide using

13

 

commercially reasonable efforts and (ii) performing such transition-related tasks, in
such manner, as may be reasonably requested by Owner), subject to limitations on Manager’s
and its Affiliates’ obligations to provide certain information to any such successor manager
as set forth in Section 3.3.

               (2) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon Owner’s engagement of a
replacement manager or commencement of self-managing of the Hotel, (i) Manager will no longer be
responsible for provision of the Management Services and instead will provide only the
Transition Services during the remaining portion of the Transition Period (as the same may be
extended or terminated as hereinabove provided in this Section 2.2) and (ii) the
Management Fee payable to Manager shall be deemed to include only the Base Management Fee.

     2.4 Additional Provisions During Transition Period.

     (a) Migration, Segregation and Consulting Services. Manager shall (and shall cause
its Affiliates to), until the termination of the Transition Period, reasonably cooperate with Owner
and the Successor Owner in carrying out a transition to a replacement manager of the Hotel, subject
to limitations on Manager’s or its Affiliates’ obligations to provide information to any such
successor manager as set forth in Section 3.3.

     (b) Requests for Modification. During the Transition Period, Owner may propose but
may not require (a) modifications or improvements to the Services to address any deficiency
therein, including to reflect changes in Applicable Law, or (b) reasonable changes to the scope of
the Services hereunder that are reasonably related to the then-current scope of the Services or
reasonably required to accomplish the transition of the management of the Hotel to a replacement
manager of the Hotel; provided, however, that nothing in this Section
2.4(b) shall relieve Owner of its obligations to make any payments otherwise required pursuant
to Article 9. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager and its Affiliates shall not have any
obligation to modify, upgrade, improve, or otherwise change any computer hardware systems or
software (including code and data), except as expressly contemplated herein.

     2.5 Matters Requiring Owner Approval. Notwithstanding the grant of authority given to
Manager in this Agreement, and without limiting any of the other circumstances under which Owner’s
approval is specifically required under this Agreement, Manager shall not take or permit any of the
following actions without Owner’s prior written approval (which shall be deemed to have been given
if Owner has approved an Annual Budget that specifically contemplates the matter in question):

to coverage; it being agreed that (i) any counsel to be engaged to prosecute or defend

elect, by written notice to Manager, to control any such prosecution or defense;

     (h) Except as directed by Owner or included in the Capital Budget, commence any ROI Capital
Improvements, Routine Capital Improvements or Building Capital Improvements;

     (i) Hire or replace any Individual for a Senior Executive Personnel position; provided that

Effective Date, as set forth on Schedule B, (ii) Owner shall be deemed to have approved the
appointment of any Individual for a Senior Executive Staff position unless Owner delivers notice of
its disapproval of such appointment within five (5) business days after Owner has received a resume
or written summary of such Individual’s professional experience and qualifications and a reasonable
opportunity to interview such Individual, and (iii) Owner may not reject more than three (3)
consecutive candidates which Manager, in its reasonable judgment, determines are qualified to fill
any Senior Executive Personnel position based, at a minimum, on the fact that such candidate has
experience performing the functions anticipated to be performed by such candidate in such position;

     (j) Submit, settle, adjust or otherwise resolve any casualty insurance claim related to the
Hotel involving losses or casualties in excess of $50,000, adjusted by CPI;

     (k) Enter into any contract or transaction with an Affiliate of Manager relating to the Hotel

of press releases or public statements regarding labor or political matters; and/or

     (q) Challenge or protest any Applicable Law affecting the Hotel.

     2.6 Cooperation with Asset Manager. Manager shall continuously share all relevant
information and results pertaining to the Hotel with the Asset Manager. Without limiting the
foregoing, Manager shall provide the Asset Manager with access to (i) the Hotel (including the
Senior Executive Personnel and the other Hotel Personnel); (ii) the executive officers of Manager;
and (iii) the books and records and any other information or data pertaining to the Hotel, in each
case so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with Manager’s ability to Operate the
Hotel. Manager shall meet with the Asset Manager weekly and the board of directors of Owner
monthly to discuss the Operating Report for the prior month and other matters pertaining to the
Hotel. Except as otherwise set forth below in this Section 2.4, Asset Manager shall have
no authority to make final decisions on behalf of Owner with respect to operating plans and budgets
or any other matters pertaining to the Hotel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
Owner delivers written notice to Manager that the Asset Manager has the right, on behalf of Owner,
to make final decisions or approvals with respect to certain matter(s) under this Agreement,
Manager may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected from acting or refraining from acting on,
any instruction or direction of the Asset Manager with respect to such matter(s) designated by
Owner in such written notice.

     2.7 Limitations on Manager’s Duties. Notwithstanding any obligation imposed upon Manager
pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement:

     (a) No Representations. Owner acknowledges and agrees that Manager is not making any
representation, warranty or claim that the operation of the Hotel will necessarily be profitable or
that any budgets, forecasts, or projections will be achieved; provided that nothing in this
Section 2.7(a) shall relieve Operator of its obligation to Operate the Hotel and provide
the Services in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

     (b) Manager Not Liable for Recommendations. Owner acknowledges and agrees that (a) Manager
is not an architect, contractor, engineer, insurance, loan or real estate broker,

16

 

attorney, CPA, or other licensed professional, and (b) all matters to be submitted by Owner or by
the applicable professional to Manager for review, consent, advice, recommendations, assistance or
approval hereunder will be presumed to have been competently prepared by such professionals.
Accordingly, although Manager will offer such assistance and make such recommendations hereunder as
it deems appropriate, Manager shall not be responsible to Owner or any third party with respect to
construction means, supplies, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures employed by Owner or
its consultants or contractors, nor shall Manager be responsible or liable for the adequacy or
quality of the plans and specifications (or any samples or shop drawings), contracts, or other
matters prepared by Owner, its consultants, or any contractors, or with respect to the adequacy or
quality of the Hotel or its construction or the ultimate cost of the Hotel; nor shall Manager be
responsible or liable for advising Owner or its consultants of any Applicable Laws, including but
not limited to permit or licensing requirements, or Insurance Requirements. Except in the case of
willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach on the part of Manager hereunder, no
recommendations, advice or approvals given, or inspections made, by Manager hereunder shall be
construed to create any such responsibility or liability.

     2.8 Relationship and Limitation on Fiduciary Duties.

     (a) Nature of Relationship. The relationship between the parties hereto shall be that of
principal, in the case of Owner, and agent, in the case of Manager. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall constitute, or be construed to constitute or create, a partnership, joint venture
or similar relationship between Owner and Manager with respect to the Hotel. This Agreement is for
the benefit of Owner and Manager and shall not create third-party beneficiary rights. Consistent
with the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, in all aspects of Operating the Hotel,
including entering into contracts, accepting reservations, and conducting financial transactions
for the Hotel, (i) Manager acts on behalf of and as agent for Owner and assumes no independent
contractual liability to third parties and (ii) Manager shall have no obligation to extend its own
credit with respect to any obligation incurred in Operating the Hotel or performing its obligations
under this Agreement.

     (b) Agreement to Define Scope of Duties. It is the intent and desire of the Parties that
any liability between them shall be based solely on general principles of contract law and the
express provisions of this Agreement, without regard to the common law principles (or any statutory
principles) of agency (except as expressly provided for in this Agreement). Accordingly, the
Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the duties
and obligations specifically set forth herein are intended to satisfy any fiduciary duties which
may exist between the Parties, and (b) to the extent any fiduciary duties or other
extra-contractual duties that might otherwise exist or be implied for any reason whatsoever,
including without limitation those resulting from the principal-agent relationship between the
Parties, are inconsistent with, or would have the effect of modifying, limiting or restricting, the
express provisions of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The Parties
further acknowledge and agree that the foregoing is intended as, and shall be construed as, an
express and knowing waiver of any and all duties of loyalty, good faith, fair dealing, care, and
full disclosure, and any other duty that might now or in the future be deemed to exist under the
common law principles (or any statutory principles) of agency (collectively, the “Implied
Fiduciary Duties”), except in each case, for duties expressly set forth in this Agreement and

17

 

except for the ordinary covenant of good faith and fair dealing implied in all contracts under
general principals of contract law. The Parties also hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waive
and release any right, power or privilege either may have to claim or receive from the other party
any punitive, exemplary, statutory, or treble damages or any incidental or consequential damages,
whether with respect to any breach of the Implied Fiduciary Duties or otherwise. Both Parties
acknowledge that they are experienced in negotiating agreements of this sort, have had the advice
of counsel in connection herewith, and have been advised as to, and fully understand, the nature of
the waivers contained in this Section 2.8(b).

     (c) Waiver of Implied Fiduciary Duties; Consent to Manager Actions. In furtherance of, and
without limiting the generality of, Section 2.8(b), Owner specifically consents to, and
waives any Implied Fiduciary Duties (subject to the exceptions therefrom contained in Section
2.8(b)) that Manager may owe to Owner in connection with, any transactions or conduct by
Manager and its Affiliates authorized by this Agreement, in each case subject only to any express
limitations set forth in this Agreement. Owner acknowledges and agrees that its consent to the
transactions and conduct by Manager described in this Agreement, and its waiver of any Implied
Fiduciary Duties (subject to the exceptions therefrom contained in Section 2.8(b))
otherwise owed by Manager: (i) has been obtained by Manager in good faith; (ii) is made knowingly
by Owner based on its adequate informed judgment as a sophisticated party after seeking the advice
of competent and informed counsel; and (iii) arises from Owner’s knowledge and understanding of the
specific transactions and actions or inactions of hotel operators that are normal, customary, and
reasonably expected in the hotel industry generally for hotels similar to the Hotel.

     2.9 No Pledge of Credit by Owner. Owner shall not pledge Manager’s credit nor shall Owner,
in the name of or on behalf of Manager, borrow any money or issue any promissory notes or bills of
exchange or any other financial obligation.

     2.10 Other Hotels. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6(c) and Manager’s
obligation to operate the Hotel in compliance with the standards and other provisions set forth in
this Agreement, Owner acknowledges that (i) Manager is currently managing other hotels and may in
the future undertake to manage additional hotels, (ii) it has selected Manager for the supervision,
direction, control, management and operation of the Hotel in part because of Manager’s management
and operation of the Manager Group Hotels and the benefits which Owner expects to derive by
including the Hotel as part the group of hotels managed by Manager and/or its Affiliates
(“Manager Group Hotels”), and (iii) the hotels in the Manager Group Hotels compete with one
another and conflicts may, from time to time, arise between the Hotel and other Manager Group
Hotels, and all of such circumstances are contemplated herein and none of them constitute a breach
of Manager’s obligations hereunder; provided that Manager shall undertake to minimize conflict and
proceed in a good faith manner intended to maximize the long-term profitability of the Hotel.
Neither Manager (or its Affiliates) nor Owner will be subject to any restrictions on the
geographical areas within which it (or they) may elect to conduct marketing activities for its (or
their) respective owned or managed properties, subject to the marketing restrictions and protocols
set forth in Schedule F.

18

 

     2.11 Transfer of Assets and Data.

          (a) Transfer of Owner Property. If Manager or any of its Affiliates is in possession
or control on the Effective Date of any property owned by Owner, then upon the execution and
delivery of this Agreement Manager shall turn over (or cause such Affiliates to turn over, as
applicable) all such property to Owner.

          (b) Transfer of Certain Assets Owned by Manager or its Affiliates. Upon execution and
delivery of this Agreement, Manager shall transfer (and shall cause its Affiliates to transfer) to
Owner all ownership interests of Manager and its Affiliates in any property or assets owned by
Manager or its Affiliates that relate to and are associated exclusively with Owner or the Hotel,
which may include, but not be limited to: (A) the trademarks which are used exclusively at
the Hotel, and (to the extent assignable) licenses to use trademarks which are owned by third
parties (other than Manager or its Affiliates) and used non-exclusively at the Hotel; (B) those
contracts, warranties, non-proprietary operating software, and other equipment operating records
that are used exclusively at the Hotel, subject in all cases to the limitations (including
with respect to non-delivery of trade secrets or proprietary software) set forth in this Agreement;
(C) any prepaid goods, services or premiums that are exclusively for the use or benefit of
the Hotel; and (D) to the extent assignable, any tangible personal property, including all computer
hardware and non-proprietary software necessary to access and use the electronic records owned or
being acquired by Owner hereunder, that is used exclusively in the operation of the Hotel
(all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Operating Assets”). Manager represents and
warrants to Owner that there is no inventory or equipment owned by Manager or its Affiliates which
is stored at, but is not in use and not contemplated by Manager or its Affiliates or Owner to be
used by, the Hotel. Manager shall allow (and cause its Affiliates to allow) Owner to use the
Operating Assets, at no cost and expense and without any license fee to Manager or its Affiliates,
in the Operation of the Hotel, from and after the Effective Date until Owner has taken title to the
Operating Assets, and Manager and its Affiliates shall maintain and not remove any Operating Assets
from the Hotel, other than to replace worn, obsolete, damaged or defective Operating Assets with
suitable replacements therefor in the ordinary course of business.

          (c) Data. As promptly as possible after the Effective Date (but in no event more than
five (5) days after the Effective Date), to the extent not heretofore transferred to Owner, Manager
shall transfer (and cause each of its Affiliates to transfer) to Owner its interest in all
Exclusive Hotel Data. Manager and/or its Affiliates, as the case may be, (A) shall not, during the
Operating Term and/or the Transition Period, make any use of Exclusive Hotel Data or Operating
Assets for any reason other than to provide Services hereunder and shall be expressly prohibited
from using such Exclusive Hotel Data in connection with any business operations or properties other
than the Hotel, and (B) at the conclusion of the Transition Period, shall delete all copies of
Exclusive Hotel Data from Manager’s and its Affiliates’ systems and databases (and shall provide a
certification from an officer of Manager and/or its Affiliates that such Exclusive Hotel Data has
been deleted) and shall not make any further use of such Exclusive Hotel Data. Manager’s and its
Affiliates’ obligation to transfer such Exclusive Hotel Data is absolute and unconditional,
regardless of whether any Services are performed or paid for pursuant to this Agreement. During
the Operating Term and the Transition Period, the Exclusive Hotel Data shall be stored and
continuously updated in a manner satisfactory to Owner. Promptly upon a request by Owner at any
time, Manager shall provide the Exclusive Hotel Data to Owner in such form and by such means as may
be requested by Owner so as to permit Owner (or any successor manager or designee of Owner) to
store, update and use the Exclusive Hotel

19

 

Data to the same extent and in the same manner as it was stored, updated and used by Manager.
For the avoidance of doubt, neither Manager nor its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall be
required to delete any aggregate customer or player data or information generated by, or contained
in, the Boarding Pass Program (including all account balance history or status level information),
and such data and information shall remain the sole property of Manager and/or its Affiliates;
provided, however, that Manager shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) remove
and delete any identifiable or traceable Exclusive Hotel Data, from the Boarding Pass Program. For
avoidance of doubt, no account balance history, status level, or redemption history information
will be deleted for any customer in the Boarding Pass Program, nor shall Manager or its Affiliates
be required to delete any such information.

     2.12 Third-Party Agreements. Manager shall, upon the request of Owner or the
Successor Owner, provide Owner or the Successor Owner reasonable assistance in identifying and
contacting third-party licensors, vendors and providers of goods or services under Third-Party
Agreements.

     2.13 Project Managers. Each of Manager (for the Operating Term and Transition Period)
and Owner (for the full Transition Period) shall designate a project manager, who shall serve as
that Party’s principal representative with respect to all issues relating to the Services (each, a
“Project Manager”). Each Party may change its Project Manager by written notice to the
other Party. Owner’s Project Manager may also be the Asset Manager.

ARTICLE 3

USE OF CERTAIN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     3.1 Temporary Non-Exclusive License to Use Station IP. The Parties acknowledge that
Owner has a temporary, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the Station IP during the
Operating Term and the Transition Period, pursuant and subject to the License Agreement.

     3.2 Intentionally Omitted.

     3.3 Excluded Property; Centralized Services. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 2.6(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement, Manager shall not be required to, directly
or indirectly, provide to Owner any information, data or inspection of any of the following which
is used both at the Hotel and at other properties managed by Manager or its Affiliates, as
applicable, and not used at properties which are not so managed, all of which is and shall remain
property of Manager or its Affiliates, as applicable: proprietary operating practices; proprietary
software; trade secrets; proprietary player tracking systems (including the Boarding Pass Program);
brand-wide customer promotions; employee compensation (unless Owner is responsible for paying all
or any part of the same) or other similar competitive information (the rights of Manager and its
Affiliates to any of the foregoing, “Proprietary Rights”). Except to the extent (a)
required in order for Manager to perform its obligations under this Agreement to provide Services
to Owner, or (b) expressly provided in this Agreement or the License Agreement, Owner shall not
have any use of or rights in any trademarks (including any Licensed Marks (as defined in the
License Agreement)), other intellectual property, general intangibles,

20

 

player tracking or reservation services used by Manager in connection with the management of
the Hotel, all of which shall remain the sole property of Manager or its Affiliates, as applicable.
Without limiting Manager’s obligations to provide Exclusive Hotel Data under Section
2.6(c) and to provide the Services (including Shared Services), Owner agrees that neither
Manager’s obligations under Section 2.2, nor Manager’s obligations to provide Services
creates in favor of Owner any rights in, and Owner shall not at any time have any rights in, use of
or access to the Boarding Pass Program, any other customer-affinity programs operated by Manager
and/or its Affiliates, any brand-wide promotions operated by Manager and/or its Affiliates, any
brand-wide progressive games operated by Manager and/or its Affiliates, or any other proprietary
promotions or systems, that are used commonly by other hotels and casinos operated by Manager
and/or its Affiliates and are not used by hotels and casinos which are not so operated; provided,
however, that (i) Owner may, at its election, continue to participate in the Boarding Pass Program
during the Operating Term (and, if Owner so elects, Manager and/or its Affiliates shall make the
Boarding Pass Program available throughout the applicable Transition Period or such shorter period
that Owner requests), and (ii) during the Operating Term and, at Owner’s election, during the
Transition Period, the Hotel shall participate in the sharing of services designated as Shared
Services in accordance with Schedule D.

ARTICLE 4

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF MANAGER

     Manager represents and warrants to Owner as follows:

     4.1 Power and Authority. Manager has the requisite corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to provide the Services, whether by itself or through
authorized service providers. All corporate action on the part of Manager necessary to approve or
to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of the transactions
contemplated hereby to be performed by it has been duly taken. This Agreement is a valid and
binding agreement enforceable against Manager in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect

hereafter in effect, affecting creditors’ rights generally and other customary qualifications.

     4.2 Non-Infringement. The software, assets, processes and procedures used by Manager
to provide the Services do not and will not infringe, or constitute an infringement or
misappropriation of, any intellectual property rights of any third party. Without limiting Owner’s
remedies, if any such software, asset, process or procedure becomes, or is, in Manager’s reasonable
opinion, likely to become, the subject of any claim of infringement or misappropriation of
intellectual property rights of a third party, Manager may, at Manager’s option and expense,
either: (a) modify the Services so as not to so infringe or misappropriate while continuing to
serve the same purpose; or (b) obtain the right to use such software, asset, process or procedure.

     4.3 Passthrough. Manager shall pass through to Owner or the Successor Owner the
benefits of any indemnifications and warranties made by third parties in Third-Party Agreements to
the fullest extent that Manager is permitted to do so under such Third-Party Agreements.

21

 

     4.4 Completeness. Manager intends that the Management Services shall constitute all
services that have been provided by Manager or its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ service
providers or designees to the Hotel during the Lookback Period. In the event that during the
Transition Period either Party discovers any service that Manager or its service providers or
designees periodically provides in the ordinary course of business and such service was last
periodically provided prior to the Lookback Period that is reasonably necessary for the operation
or management of the Hotel (e.g., assistance with periodic tax returns or regulatory filings) and
that has not been replaced or superseded by new or modified services or suspended across Manager’s
and its Affiliates’ owned or managed properties generally, the Management Services shall, at
Owner’s election and notice, be automatically deemed to be amended to include any services that
Manager actually provided to the Hotel during the Lookback Period and Manager shall (subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement) be entitled to recover Manager’s Actual Cost and the
allocable portion of its Shared Expense (in each case as applicable) for providing the services
that are subject to such amendment.

     4.5 Manager Capabilities and Resources. Manager will have continuous access to all
strategic management capacity currently used by Manager and its Affiliates to operate the Hotel.
Manager will be familiar with all of the Hotel’s day-to-day operations. Manager will have on the
Effective Date, the capabilities, operating methods, systems and resources reasonably necessary to
assume management responsibility for the Hotel in a manner reasonably consistent with the Services
contemplated by this Agreement.

     4.6 Lawsuits. Manager represents and warrants that there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending, or, so far as Manager has actual knowledge, threatened against Manager which
might result in any inability of Manager to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

     4.7 Brokers, Finders, Etc. Manager represents and warrants to Owner that it has
engaged no broker, agency or finder in connection with this transaction.

ARTICLE 5

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF OWNER

Agreement and the performance of the transactions contemplated hereby to be performed by it has
been duly taken. This Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Owner, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of principles of equity and the applicable

     6.4 Permitted Uses. The foregoing shall not prohibit use of Confidential Information
(a) as is required by Applicable Law (including any gaming regulations), (b) as is necessary to
prepare tax returns or other required filings with any governmental authorities or to defend or

however, that the party using or disclosing such Confidential Information in any of the
preceding scenarios must take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of the information to
the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

24

 

     6.5 Return and Destruction. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement,
or at any time with respect to particular Confidential Information not required by a Party to

     6.6 Use of Residual Manager Knowledge. Owner acknowledges that Manager has been
engaged pursuant to this Agreement to provide Owner with access to data and information other

utilized exclusively by Manager and its Affiliates in the management and operation of numerous
casino and hotel properties and that all such proprietary or confidential systems, methods,

systems, methods, programs and strategies exclusively developed by Manager and its Affiliates
(including those developed by Manager and its Affiliates in connection with the management of the

strategies.

     6.8 Survival. Without limiting any Party’s obligations with respect to the return and

Agreement.

ARTICLE 7

SURVIVAL

     7.1 Survival. The obligations of the Parties under this Agreement that the Parties
have expressly agreed shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement or that, by their

Article 1, Article 6 (to the extent provided in Section 6.8), this
Article 7 and Article 16 of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement
relating to the Transition Period, shall survive expiration or termination.

8.2.

     8.2 Renewal Options. Owner shall have the right (but not the obligation) to extend
the Initial Operating Term of this Agreement for successive periods of one (1) year each (each, a
“Renewal Term”) by giving Manager written notice of its desire to extend not later than
ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Operating Term (or, if applicable, the

this Agreement shall be automatically extended to the expiration of such Renewal Term.

     8.3 Early Termination. Owner may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ninety
(90) days’ prior written notice to Manager, and Manager may terminate this Agreement at any time
following the first year of the Initial Operating Term upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice

at any time prior to one (1) year after the Effective Date, then Owner shall pay the Owner
Termination Amount to Manager. The Owner Termination Amount, to the extent actually paid by Owner,
shall be credited against the Management Fee and any expenses and other amounts that may be payable
to Manager for its services during the Transition Period, as and when such fees, expenses and other
amounts become due. The effective date of either such termination shall be extended to the extent
(if any) necessary for Owner and Manager to comply with Applicable Law.

     8.4 Termination upon Default. In the event that either Party materially breaches any
of its material representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement and (in the case of
any breach of a covenant hereunder) fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after
receiving written notice of such breach from the other Party, such other Party may, without
limiting its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, at law or in equity, terminate this
Agreement by written notice to the breaching Party, subject to Manager’s obligation to perform
Transition Services hereunder. Without limiting any liability on the part of Owner if Owner is the
breaching Party, no Owner Termination Amount shall be payable, and Owner shall incur no other cost,
expense or liability, as a result of any such termination.

     8.5 Termination by Manager for Non-Payment. If Owner fails to make when due any
payment required under Section 9.6, Manager may terminate this Agreement upon ten (10)
business days’ notice, subject to Manager’s obligation to perform Transition Services hereunder. If
any such failure by Owner occurs during the Transition Period, Manager may terminate the Transition
Period upon ten (10) business days’ notice, in which case Manager shall no longer be obligated to
perform any Transition Services hereunder. Without limiting any liability on the part of Owner
with respect to such failure, no Owner Termination Amount shall be payable, and Owner shall incur
no other cost, expense or liability, as a result of any termination in accordance with this

Agreement, (b) Manager or any of its Affiliates suffers the revocation, suspension,

26

 

expiration or other loss of any Approval required for the provision by Manager of the
Services, (c) any Approval held by Manager or any of its Affiliates under any Gaming Laws could, in
Owner’s good-faith judgment, be revoked, suspended or jeopardized, or (d) Manager or any of its
Affiliates has been found unsuitable by a gaming regulator or could (in Owner’s good-faith
judgment) be found unsuitable if Manager (or such Affiliate) were called forward by a gaming
regulator. Except as may be otherwise stated therein, any such termination notice shall be
effective upon the date it is received by Manager. No Owner Termination Amount shall be payable,
and Owner shall incur no other cost, expense or liability, as a result of any termination in
accordance with this Section 8.6 other than those costs and expenses that would otherwise
be borne by Owner under this Agreement following any termination or expiration hereof.

     8.7 Termination by Owner Relating to Licenses. Either Party shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement by written notice to other Party if at any time the notifying Party, any
of its members or managers, any of their respective Affiliates or any of the shareholders,
partners, managers, members, parents, officers, directors, Affiliates or employees of any of the
foregoing (each, an “Affected Person”) determines, in its sole, exclusive and nonreviewable
discretion, that the commencement or continuation of this Agreement could adversely affect one or
more of the actual or potential licenses, certificates of suitability, suitability findings,
permits or the like (each, a “License”) of one or more of the Affected Persons, whether any
such License is, or may be, issued by the State of Nevada or any federal, state, local or foreign
governmental or regulatory authority. Except as may be otherwise stated therein, any such
termination notice shall be effective upon the date it is received by the Party to which it is
delivered, subject to Manager’s obligation to perform Transition Services hereunder. No Owner
Termination Amount shall be payable as a result of any termination in accordance with this
Section 8.7, and any such termination shall be at no cost, expense or liability to Owner or
any other Related Person.

ARTICLE 9

FEES AND PAYMENT

     9.1 Base Management Fee. The Base Management Fee shall be payable to Manager in
monthly installments in arrears five (5) days after the delivery to Owner of the Monthly Report for
the prior Accounting Month, with each such monthly installments being calculated on the actual
Gross Operating Revenue for such prior Accounting Month. The Base Management Fee shall be paid by
Manager by withdrawing the same from the Bank Accounts. Each such installment shall equal the
Base Management Fee for the related month and (if applicable) each preceding month in the same
Operating Year, less the sum of all prior installments of the Base Management Fee paid for such
Operating Year. At the time of submission of each Monthly Report, Manager shall provide to Owner a
computation of the applicable installment of the Base Management Fee in reasonable detail and
certified by Manager.

     9.2 Incentive Management Fee. The Incentive Management Fee shall be payable to
Manager in quarterly installments in arrears within five (5) days after the delivery to Owner of
the Quarterly Report for the prior Accounting Quarter. Each such installment shall equal the
Incentive Management Fee for the applicable Accounting Quarter and (if applicable) each

27

 

preceding Accounting Quarter in the same Operating Year, less the sum of all prior
installments of the Incentive Management Fee paid for such Operating Year. At the time of
submission of each Quarterly Report, Manager shall provide to Owner a computation of the applicable
installment of the Incentive Management Fee in reasonable detail and certified by Manager. For the
avoidance of doubt, all Management Fee installments and Owner’s Expenses payable with respect to
any Accounting Quarter (whether due and payable during or after such Accounting Quarter) shall be
deducted in the calculation of Net Income for such quarter for purposes of such computation.

     9.3 Costs and Expenses Incurred. In addition to the Base Management Fee and the
Incentive Management Fee, the Hotel’s allocable portion of Shared Expenses and additional Actual
Costs incurred by Manager as a result of providing Shared Services to the Hotel (collectively,
“Owner’s Expenses”) shall constitute costs and expenses of Owner under this Agreement and
as such shall be fully reimbursable to Manager hereunder (without duplication), provided that (a)
such Owner’s Expenses shall have been approved by Owner (in connection with the Annual Budget or
otherwise) and actually incurred by Manager or its Affiliates, (b) any such Owner’s Expenses
constituting costs and expenses for Senior Executive Personnel
(excluding bonuses) and shared employees shall not
exceed $137,500 in the aggregate in any calendar month, $393,750 in
the aggregate in any rolling three (3) month period, or $1,500,000 in
the aggregate in any rolling twelve  (12) month period, and any other Owner’s Expenses shall not
exceed $394,167 in the aggregate in any calendar month, $1,128,750 in
the aggregate in any rolling three (3) month period, or $4,300,000 in
the aggregate in any rolling twelve (12) month period and (c) any such Owner’s Expenses to be
reimbursed to Manager are set forth in a Monthly Report. The Parties acknowledge that the limits
set forth in clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence are based on the costs and expenses
that were treated as Shared Expenses and allocated as such to the Hotel from January 2010 through
July 2011, and Manager agrees to treat as Shared Expenses the same categories of costs and expenses
that were so treated, and to use the same methods of calculation and allocation of Shared Expenses
that were used, during such period. Owner’s Expenses shall be reimbursed within five (5) days
after the delivery to Owner of the Monthly Report detailing such Owner’s Expenses. Whenever any
reimbursement due Manager under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement shall be
subject to a gross receipts or similar tax under Applicable Law, Manager shall be entitled to such
reimbursement, together with such tax payable thereon, so that Manager shall receive such
reimbursement net of any taxes or similar charges

     9.4 Payment Disputes; Audits. If Owner disputes in good faith any amounts charged by
Manager hereunder, Owner shall provide prompt notice thereof to Manager and the Parties shall
promptly and in good faith attempt to resolve such dispute. If any such dispute is not resolved
prior to the payment due date for such fee or expense, Owner may withhold (or direct Manager to
withhold) any disputed amounts from the payment of such fee or expense; provided that
Manager shall be entitled to receive the undisputed portion of the same and Manager shall be
entitled to receive any remainder promptly upon the resolution of the dispute. Manager and its
Affiliates shall keep reasonably detailed books and records related to the amounts charged
hereunder, together with third party invoices and reasonable supporting documentation. Owner or
its designated third party auditor may, from time to time, as an expense of the Hotel and upon
reasonable notice to Manager and/or its Affiliates, request copies of, inspect and conduct audits
of, such books, records, invoices and documentation as reasonably necessary to verify and confirm
the amounts charged hereunder. If any such audit reveals an overcharge of Owner with respect to
any amounts charged hereunder, Manager or its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall issue a refund
to Owner or, at Owner’s election, extend a credit to

28

 

Owner to be applied against future amounts charged hereunder. If any such audit reveals an
underpayment by Owner with respect to any such charges, Manager shall be entitled to withdraw from
the Bank Accounts the net amount of any such underpayment.

     9.5 Reconciliation of Management Fees. Within ten (10) days after Manager delivers to
Owner the Certified Financial Statements for any Operating Year, Manager shall cause to be prepared
and delivered to Owner a reconciliation statement for such Operating Year showing the calculation
and payment of the Management Fees for such Operating Year, and appropriate adjustments shall be
made for any overpayment or underpayment of the Management Fees during such Operating Year. If any
reconciliation statement reflects an overpayment of Management Fees to Manager, Manager shall,
within fifteen (15) days after such reconciliation statement has been delivered by Manager to
Owner, remit to Owner the amount of such overpayment. If the reconciliation statement reflects an
underpayment of Management Fees to Manager, Manager shall be entitled to withdraw from the Bank
Accounts within thirty (30) days after such reconciliation statement has been delivered by Manager
to Owner the net amount of any such underpayment.

     9.6 Payment by Owner. Subject to Section 9.4, if at any time there are
insufficient funds in the Bank Accounts to pay any installment of the Base Management Fee or the
Incentive Management Fee or any expense or other amount which is then due and payable to Manager,
Owner shall, within ten (10) business days after receiving a written request therefor from Manager,
pay the amount of such installment, expense or amount to Manager.

ARTICLE 10

BOOKS AND RECORDS

     10.1 Maintenance of Books and Records. Manager shall keep and maintain in accordance
with GAAP complete and accurate records and books of account reflecting all financial affairs
(including all items of income and expense) in connection with the Operation of the Hotel. All
books of account and other financial records of the Hotel shall be available to Owner, any Lender
and their respective agents, representatives and designees (subject to Article 6) at all
reasonable times for examination, audit, inspection and copying, at no cost or expense to Manager.
Such inspections and examinations shall be made with as little disruption to the business
operations of the Hotel as reasonably practicable. All of the financial books and records of the
Hotel, including books of account and front office records (but excluding any Proprietary Rights),
shall be the property of Owner; provided, however, after the termination of this Agreement, all
such books and records with respect to the period during which Manger provided Services hereunder
shall thereafter be available for a period of five years to Manager at the Hotel for inspection,
audit, examination and extracting, at all reasonable times, upon two business days’ prior notice.

     10.2 Monthly Financial Reports. Manager shall cause to be prepared and delivered to
Owner reasonably detailed unaudited monthly operating reports (the “Monthly Reports”) that
reflect the operational results of the Hotel for each Accounting Month of each Operating Year.
Manager shall deliver each Monthly Report to Owner within fifteen (15) days after the end of the
Accounting Month to which such Monthly Report relates. At a minimum, the Monthly Reports

29

 

shall include: (a) a balance sheet including comparisons against the prior Accounting Month
and prior year-end and outlining differences in reasonable detail; (b) an income and expense
statement (including GOR, Operating Costs (including Owner’s Expenses) (broken out into categories
which are no less specific than the categories enumerated in clauses (i) through (ix) of the first
paragraph of Schedule A), Net Income and EBITDA) for such Accounting Month and for the
elapsed portion of the current Operating Year through the end of such Accounting Month (with a
comparison to the previous year); (c) a statement of cash flows for such Accounting Month and for
the elapsed portion of the current Operating Year through the end of such Accounting Month (with a
comparison to the previous year) in reasonable detail to allow Owner to identify and ascertain
sources and uses thereof; (d) a computation of any installment of the Base Management Fees due
following delivery of such Monthly Report; (e) a statement of all amounts reimbursable to Manager

its Affiliates, and the current or proposed allocation of the time, services and costs of such
employees; (g) a statement of all current and proposed Shared Services, and the current or proposed
allocation of the costs of such Shared Services; (h) descriptions of all variances from the Annual
Budget for the current Operating Year, updated forecasts and any proposed changes to the Annual
Budget; and (i) such other reports or information as may be otherwise specified in this Agreement
to be provided to Owner on a monthly basis or as Owner may reasonably specify from time to time.

     10.3 Quarterly Financial Reports. Manager shall cause to be prepared and delivered to
Owner reasonably detailed unaudited quarterly operating reports (the “Quarterly Reports”,
and together with the Monthly Reports, the “Operating Reports”). Manager shall deliver
each Quarterly Report to Owner within forty-five (45) days following the end of the Accounting
Quarter to which such Quarterly Report relates. At a minimum, the Quarterly Reports shall include:
(a) a narrative report on the Hotel’s actual performance relative to the Annual Budget; (b) a
computation of any installment of the Incentive Management Fees due following delivery of such
Quarterly Report; (c) a schedule comparing the financial performance of the Hotel to the financial
covenants under Financing Documents to the extent that the applicable Financing relates to the
Hotel only; and (d) such other reports or information as Owner may reasonably specify from time to
time.

     10.4 Annual Financial Reports. Manager shall cause to be prepared and delivered to
Owner, no later than ninety (90) days after the end of each Operating Year, financial statements
for such Operating Year (including a balance sheet, a statement of earnings and retained earnings
and a statement of cash flows), which statements shall be audited by an accounting firm selected by
Owner and approved by Manager (provided that Manager shall not withhold its approval of one of the
“Big Four” accounting firms), shall include a certification by such firm that, subject to any
qualifications therein, such statements fairly present, in conformity with GAAP, the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows of the Hotel for the preceding Operating Year, and
shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (“Certified Financial Statements”). Owner and
Manager shall cooperate in all respects in the preparation of such financial statements, including
the delivery by Manager of any financial information generated by Manager pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement and reasonably required to prepare such Certified Financial Statements.

30

 

     10.5 Other Reports and Schedules. In addition to the Monthly Reports, Quarterly
Reports and Certified Financial Statements required to be delivered to Owner hereunder, Manager
shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Owner any additional reports and schedules as Owner may
reasonably request from time to time, and copies of such leases, contracts and documents as Owner
may reasonably request from time to time.

     10.6 Cost of Reports. The cost of preparing the statements and reports described in
this Article 10 shall be charged as an Operating Cost of the Hotel for the applicable Operating
Year. If the opinion of the independent certified public accounting firm that prepared the
Certified Financial Statements for any Operating Year with respect to the matters set forth in such
Certified Financial Statements shall be an unqualified opinion, then such Certified Financial
Statements shall be conclusive upon the Parties hereto with respect to such matters and shall be
deemed to be a final determination of the GOR, Net Income, Operating Costs, Base Management Fee and
Incentive Management Fee for such Operating Year, absent fraud, gross or manifest error, or breach
of this Agreement.

     10.7 Public Filings. Manager acknowledges that Owner or an Affiliate of Owner may be
a public company, and Manager agrees to cooperate with Owner in maintaining the books and records
of the Hotel, and by preparing and delivering to Owner reports and statements hereunder and public
filings to be filed by Owner or its Affiliates, in a manner that (a) is customary for a third-party
manager of a hotel and casino owned by a public company and (b) will permit Owner and its
Affiliates to comply with any and all public filing requirements.

ARTICLE 11

OPERATION OF THE MANAGED FACILITIES

     11.1 Proposed Annual Budget. On or before November 1 of each Operating Year, Manager
shall prepare and deliver to Owner, for its review and approval, a proposed operating plan and
budget for the next Operating Year. All operating plans and budgets proposed by Manager shall
include projections of Gross Operating Revenue and Operating Costs by department for such Operating
Year for the Hotel and shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with budgeting and planning
procedures typically employed by operating subsidiaries of Manager and its Affiliates. Each
operating plan and budget shall include monthly and annual projections of each of the following
items, as applicable, for the Hotel:

          (a) results of operations (including itemized Gross Operating Revenue, Promotional Allowances,
Operating Costs and EBITDA), together with the following supporting data: (a) total labor costs
(broken down by department and aggregated), including both fixed and variable labor; (b) the
Management Fee, Shared Expenses and Owner’s Expenses; (c) estimates of average daily rate and
occupancy; (d) estimates of food, beverage and other sales; (e) estimates of gaming receipts and
losses; and (f) a description of the category and nature of Shared Services to be provided,
together with a budget for each such category;

          (b) a description of proposed Routine Capital Improvements, Building Capital Improvements and
ROI Capital Improvements to be made during such Operating Year and estimated capital expenditures
related thereto, including capitalized lease expenses and a

31

 

contingency line item, and proposed monthly funding for such costs, and project schedules for
such capital improvements (the “Capital Budget”);

          (c) a statement of cash flow, including a schedule of any anticipated cash shortfalls;

          (d) a schedule of debt service payments and reserves required under any Financing Documents;
and

          (e) a marketing plan and budget for the activities to be undertaken by Manager, including
promotional activities and Promotional Allowances for the Hotel.

     11.2 Approval of Annual Budget. Except as expressly provided herein, all final
decisions with respect to the operating plans and budgets shall be made by Owner in its sole
discretion. If Owner objects to any portion of the proposed annual operating plan or budgets
(other than portions to the extent they relate exclusively to discretionary capital expenditures
(i.e., capital expenditures not required to comply with law or for life safety reasons)) and Owner
and Manager fail to agree on such portion before the end of the first calendar month of the
Operating Year to which the proposed annual operating plan and budgets relate, then the dispute
will be resolved by an independent internationally recognized hotel and gaming consultant, selected
and retained jointly by Manager and Owner. Any such consultant will (i) have no fewer than ten
(10) years of experience in the casino/hotel business, (ii) not be an Affiliate of or a person who
has any past, present or currently contemplated future business or personal relationship with
either Owner or Manager and (iii) not have its compensation fixed based on the results of the issue
at dispute. If the Parties are unable to agree on such consultant, the dispute shall be resolved
in accordance with Section 17.10. If the consultant agrees with Manager’s proposal with
respect to any Owner Controlled Issue (as defined below), the applicable budget or plan shall
nevertheless incorporate Owner’s proposal with respect to such issue, but the Base Management Fee
and Incentive Management Fee for the period covered by such budget or plan shall be adjusted after
such period to reflect the consultant’s best estimate as to what Gross Operating Revenue and EBITDA
would have been if Manager’s proposal had been implemented. As used herein, “Owner Controlled
Issues” shall mean all issues submitted to the consultant other than (a) issues relating to life
safety or legal and regulatory compliance and (b) issues as to which the Manager asserts in good
faith that its proposal is necessary in order for the Hotel to comply with the brand standards of
Manager and its Affiliates applied to all properties branded as “Station” casinos. The proposed
operating plan and budget, including the Capital Budget, as modified to reflect the revisions, if
any, either agreed to by the Parties or determined by resolution pursuant to this section shall
become the “Annual Budget” for the next Operating Year.

     11.3 Initial Annual Budget. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the operating plan
and operating and capital budgets attached as Schedule G have been agreed to by the Parties
and shall constitute the Annual Budget for the initial Operating Year.

     11.4 Modification to Annual Budget. Manager shall have the right from time to time
during each Operating Year (but not more frequently than quarterly) to propose modifications to the
Annual Budget then in effect based on actual operations during the elapsed

32

 

                    .

portion of the applicable Operating Year and Manager’s judgment as to what will transpire
during the remainder of such Operating Year. Any such modifications shall be subject to Owner’s
approval (in the same manner as any Annual Budget) in accordance with Section 11.2.

     11.5 Compliance with Annual Budget. Manager shall use best efforts to Operate the
Hotel in accordance with the Annual Budget for the applicable Operating Year. In no event shall
Manager (i) incur costs or expenses or make expenditures that would cause the expenditures during
any quarter for any line item in an Annual Budget to exceed the amount budgeted for such line item
in such Annual Budget for such quarter by more than 10% or, in the case of (x) costs or expenses
relating to marketing, advertising or promotion of the Hotel or (y) Shared Expenses, by more than
5%, in each case without Owner’s prior approval, or (ii) exceed the Capital Budget for any Building
Capital Improvements or ROI Capital Improvements by any amount without Owner’s prior approval.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall have the right, without Owner’s prior approval and
without reference to the amounts provided for with respect thereto in the applicable Annual Budget,
(A) to pay expenses that are not within the ability of Manager to control, including property
taxes, the rates applied to (rather than the level of consumption of) utility services, insurance
premiums, and license and permit fees, and (B) to make expenditures required on an emergency basis
to avoid or mitigate potential injury to persons at the Hotel or damage to the Hotel or other
property located at or used in the Operation of the Hotel, provided, that Manager shall endeavor to
consult with Owner prior to making any such expenditures and, where such consultation is
impracticable under the circumstances, shall notify Owner of the expenditures as promptly
thereafter as reasonably possible.

     11.6 Personnel.

     (a) Manager Control. Except as otherwise provided herein, Manager shall manage and
have sole and exclusive control of all aspects of the Hotel Personnel, including the recruitment,
screening, hiring, payment (including processing of payroll and benefits), training, supervision,
instruction and direction of all Hotel Personnel. No Hotel Personnel shall perform services for
the benefit of Manager or any of its Affiliates or any property owned or managed by Manager or any
of its Affiliates other than the Hotel.

     (b) Personnel Costs. All Hotel Personnel other than Senior Executive Personnel shall
be employees of Owner, and (subject to Sections 9.3 and 11.5 and the other provisions of
this Agreement) all Hotel Personnel Costs shall be the sole responsibility of Owner and may be paid
by Manager from the Bank Accounts as Operating Costs. Owner shall have no right to supervise,
discharge or direct any Hotel Personnel, except as otherwise set forth herein, and covenants and
agrees not to attempt to so supervise, direct or discharge. Owner shall not interfere with or give
orders or instructions to Hotel Personnel, but Owner may contact Manager or the Hotel’s general
manager for purposes of evaluating or commenting upon Hotel Personnel, Hotel operations and/or
financial performance. Subject to compliance with Gaming Laws, the Operation of the Hotel in
compliance with the standards set forth herein, and Owner’s review and approval of the sharing
arrangement on a monthly basis, Manager may cause certain Hotel Personnel to provide services to
other facilities owned or operated by Manager or an Affiliate of Manager, in which event the costs
associated with such personnel shall be equitably allocated between the Hotel and such other
facilities pursuant and subject to a reimbursement arrangement satisfactory to Owner.

33

 

     (c) Senior Executive Personnel. The Senior Executive Personnel shall report to
Manager and shall have the authority and powers normally given to persons holding the positions
occupied by them, subject to the authority and powers given to Owner and the Asset Manager in this
Agreement.

     (d) Acts of Hotel Personnel. Manager shall not be deemed in breach of any provision of
this Agreement, or otherwise (as between Owner and Manager) at fault, by reason of any act or
omission of any of the Hotel Personnel, except in connection with its screening, hiring, training,
supervision, instruction and direction of such Hotel Personnel.

     (e) Temporary Assignments. Manager may, if necessary in its reasonable judgment,
assign one or more of its other supervisory employees to the Hotel on a temporary or part-time
basis, and the costs and expenses of such assignment shall be Operating Costs of the Hotel,
provided that such assignment and the costs and expenses thereof shall be subject to Owner’s prior
written approval (as part of the Annual Budget or otherwise).

     11.7 Licenses and Permits; Owner’s Covenant. All liquor licenses, and all other licenses
that are not readily transferable or re-issuable upon termination of this Agreement, shall be
obtained and held in Owner’s name, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law. Owner shall also
make, execute and deliver such agreements, contracts, leases, applications, verifications,
instruments and other documents as are permitted hereunder, and shall otherwise cooperate
reasonably with Manager, in connection with Manager’s exercise of its rights and authority, and
performance of its obligations, under this Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement.

     11.8 Maintenance, Repairs, Alterations and Reserves

     (a) Repairs, Maintenance and Alterations. Manager shall, subject to the applicable Annual
Budget (and the availability of sufficient funds), repair and maintain the Hotel (other than such
portions thereof as are leased to tenants who undertake a duty of repair and maintenance, in which
case Manager shall use commercially reasonable and diligent efforts to cause such tenants to comply
with such duty) in good order and condition and make all repairs thereto as may be necessary to
operate at the Hotel Standard, and shall coordinate and provide general oversight in respect of the
installation of FF&E in the ordinary course.

     (b) Emergency Repairs. If Manager shall, at any time, reasonably believe that (i) a
dangerous condition exists at the Hotel, (ii) repairs are required to comply with any applicable
Applicable Laws or Insurance Requirements in any material respect, or (iii) expenditures are
required to eliminate a dangerous condition or to prevent further property damage following a fire,
act of God, flood, earthquake or other like or unlike casualty or other emergency, Manager may take
all steps and make, on behalf of Owner utilizing the funds in the Bank Accounts, all reasonable
expenditures necessary to cure such condition or make such repairs, or which are otherwise so
required, whether or not provided for in the applicable Annual Budget; provided, however, that
Manager shall not make any such expenditures in excess of $50,000 with respect to any single
condition or occurrence or related series of conditions or occurrences without Owner’s prior
approval, except to the extent required to avoid an imminent peril to human life or imminent risk
of material property damage or liability, to avoid a criminal violation, or to avoid

34

 

cancellation of any required insurance. Manager agrees to notify Owner in writing as soon as
reasonably possible of any such emergency condition or situation, the cost of which exceeds
$15,000, adjusted annually with CPI, and of the action taken or proposed to be taken by Manager.

     11.9 Purchasing. In purchasing FF&E, Operating Supplies, Operating Consumables and other
goods and services for the Hotel, Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure
competitive prices for goods and services consistent with the Hotel Standard. When taking bids or
issuing purchase orders, Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure for, and shall
credit to, Owner any discounts, commissions, or rebates obtainable as a result of such purchase.
Manager shall promptly remit to Owner’s benefit in the Bank Accounts all discounts, rebates,
profits, or commissions received by Manager or by any Affiliate of Manager, in connection with any
purchases described above, in connection with any purchase contracts or agreements entered into on
behalf of Owner or in connection with the Hotel. This clause is intended to ensure that neither
Manager nor any Affiliate of Manager shall receive, directly or indirectly, any remuneration other
than that to be paid by Owner to Manager hereunder.

     11.10 Payment of Hotel Expenses

     (a) Manager shall in no event be required or obligated to advance any of its funds for the
Operation of the Hotel, nor shall Manager be required to incur any liability in connection
therewith unless Owner shall have furnished Manager with funds necessary for the discharge thereof.
For avoidance of doubt, the cost, fees, compensation or other expenses of any persons, such as
attorneys, independent asset managers, independent accountants and the like engaged by Owner to
perform duties pertaining to the ownership (as opposed to Operation) of the Hotel, shall be an
expense of Owner and shall not be an Operating Cost of the Hotel or deducted from Gross Operating
Revenue for calculation of the Incentive Management Fee.

     (b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall, prior to delinquency, and as long
as Manager has been supplied with bills and invoices, pay from the Bank Accounts or Sub-Accounts,
to the extent of funds available therein, all Impositions assessed against the Hotel, and all
insurance premiums on all policies of insurance maintained with respect to the Hotel and its
operations.

     11.11 Coordination and Planning.

     (a) Cooperation with Transactions. Manager shall cooperate reasonably (at Owner’s request
and at Owner’s cost and expense) with any actual or prospective purchaser, underwriter, lender or
other person in connection with any actual or proposed sale, investment, offering, debt placement
or financing of or related to the Hotel (provided that Manager shall not be required to release to
any such person any of Manager’s Proprietary Rights or by reason of such cooperation incur any
underwriting liability). Such cooperation may include the preparation of customary lists and
schedules (such as, for example, inventories) and other information relating to the Hotel, to the
extent regularly maintained or compiled, or if the requested information is reasonably available to
Manager, as may be reasonably requested by a prospective purchaser, underwriter, lender or other
person.

35

 

     (b) Third-Party Operated Areas. Owner and Manager acknowledge that certain areas of the
Hotel, such as the spa, fitness center or restaurant may be operated by third parties (the
“Third-Party Managers”) under a lease, operating agreement, franchise agreement or similar
agreement. Any areas of the Hotel operated by Third-Party Managers are referred to in this
Agreement as “Third-Party Operated Areas”. The operation of any Third-Party Operated Areas
by a Third-Party Manager, and the selection of a Third-Party Manager for such Third-Party Operated
Areas, shall be subject to approval of both Owner and Manager; provided, that Manager, at its
option, shall have the right to control the process of selecting any Third-Party Managers,
including the right to conduct a request for proposals to select the Third-Party Managers, which
selection shall be subject to the approval by Owner. Any lease, operating agreement, franchise
agreement or similar agreement with a Third-Party Manager shall: (i) be consistent with the terms
of this Agreement; (ii) allow Manager to operate the Hotel in accordance with the Hotel Standard
and the terms of this Agreement; (iii) require the Third-Party Managers to operate the Third-Party
Operated Areas in accordance with the Hotel Standard and all other terms of this Agreement; and
(iv) be subject to the review and prior written approval of both Owner and Manager. All rents,
fees and other amounts received by or on behalf of Owner from the operation of Third-Party Operated
Areas shall be included in Gross Operating Revenue.

GAMING LAW PROVISIONS

     12.1 Regulatory Cooperation. Manager shall cooperate and support Owner in connection
with the preparation and prosecution of all applications required or deemed prudent by Owner for
regulatory licenses, permits, registrations and other Approvals in connection with licensing and

this Agreement and the transition of the Operation of the Hotel to a third party during the
Transition Period.

ARTICLE 13

FINANCING

     13.1 Mortgages; Collateral Assignments. Owner shall have the right to grant a Mortgage
or Security Interest to a Lender in connection with any Financing, and to assign to any Lender as
collateral security for any Financing, all of Owner’s right, title and interest in and to this
Agreement. In connection therewith, the Parties shall enter into a subordination and
non-disturbance and attornment agreement incorporating customary and market terms and reasonably
satisfactory to Manager and the Lender, provided that such form shall provide that (a) this
Agreement shall survive any foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Hotel at the sole
option of Owner and (b) Manager’s right to payment of fees and other amounts under this Agreement
shall be subject and subordinate to the Lender’s right to payment under the Financing Documents, to
the extent provided in Section 13.2.

     13.2 Subordination of Fees. The Base Management Fee and the Incentive Management Fee
shall not be subordinated to the secured and/or unsecured financing in place at

36

 

the exit of the Company from bankruptcy or any other financing with respect to which any
Affiliates of Owner hold interests that are sufficient (or more than sufficient) in the aggregate
to give them voting control of the outstanding obligations and/or commitments thereunder, and all
fees, expenses and other amounts that would otherwise be due and payable under this Agreement shall
continue to be payable to Manager during any default or event of default under any such financing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Base Management Fee and the Incentive Management Fee shall be
subordinated to any future secured and/or unsecured financing with respect to which, at the time of
origination, either no Affiliates of Owner hold any interest or Affiliates of Owner hold interests
that are not sufficient in the aggregate to give them voting control of the outstanding obligations
and/or commitments thereunder, provided that so long as there is no event of default under any such
financing such fees shall be paid when due.

     13.3 Lender’s Right of Access. Upon reasonable advance notice from a Lender (which
notice may be given verbally in connection with an emergency or upon the occurrence of an event of
default under any Financing Documents), Manager shall permit and cooperate with such Lender and its
agents and representatives to enter any part of the Hotel at any reasonable time for the purposes
of examining or inspecting the Hotel, or examining or copying the books and records of the Hotel;
provided, however, that any expenses incurred in connection with such activities shall be Operating
Costs of the Hotel.

     13.4 Estoppel Certificates. Within ten (10) days after a written request therefor by
Owner, Manager shall issue to Owner or any Lender an estoppel certificate, comfort letter or such
other document as may be reasonably requested by Owner: (a) certifying that this Agreement has not
been modified and is in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, specifying the
modifications and certifying that the same is in full force and effect as modified); and (b)
stating whether, to the knowledge of Manager, any default by Owner exists, and if so, specifying
each default of which Manager has knowledge. Within ten (10) days after a written request therefor
by Manager, Owner shall issue to Manager an estoppel certificate, comfort letter or such other
document as may be reasonably requested by Manager: (i) certifying that this Agreement has not been
modified and is in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, specifying the
modifications and certifying that the same is in full force and effect as modified); and (ii)
stating whether, to the knowledge of Owner, any default by Manager exists, and if so, specifying
each default of which Owner has knowledge.

     13.5 Required Amendments. In the event any Lender or proposed Lender, directly or
indirectly as a condition of closing the proposed Financing, requires any commercially reasonable
modification of any terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Parties shall comply with such
request; provided, however, Manager shall be under no obligation to consent to any requested
modification or amendment to this Agreement that would increase Manager’s obligations under this
Agreement or diminish the fees or reimbursements becoming due to Manager hereunder.

     13.6 Title; Compliance with Mortgage, Ground Lease and CC&R’s. Manager, to the extent
it or any of its Affiliates has or has been provided true and accurate copies of any Mortgage,
ground lease or CC&R’s encumbering the Hotel, shall use commercially reasonable and diligent
efforts not to cause any violation of the covenants and conditions thereof.

37

 

ARTICLE 14

INSURANCE

     14.1 Insurance Requirements. Manager shall procure and maintain the policies of
insurance, in the names and with the coverages and limits, described in Schedule E or such
other policies, in such other names or with such other coverages or limits, as may hereafter be
designated by Owner from time to time. All premiums and other costs of such insurance, and any
applicable deductibles or co-insurance requirements, shall be the responsibility of Owner and shall
be paid in accordance with Section 15.1.

ARTICLE 15

BANK ACCOUNTS

     15.1 Administration of Bank Accounts. Manager shall establish, as agent for Owner, a
bank account or accounts at a bank or other financial institution designated by Owner and approved
by Manager (“Bank Accounts”). The Bank Accounts shall be in the name of Owner, doing
business as the Hotel, shall be owned by Owner and shall use the taxpayer identification number of
Owner. Manager shall not commingle the funds in any such Bank Account with any funds of Manager or
any Affiliate of Manager. The Bank Accounts shall be interest-bearing accounts if such accounts
are reasonably available and shall be maintained in accordance with the Financing Documents.
Manager shall deposit into the Bank Accounts all moneys received by Manager from the operations of
the Hotel. The Bank Accounts may include sub-accounts for specific purposes, such as restaurant
and bar, parking and travel agent commission accounts (all such sub-accounts opened by Manager for
specific purposes shall be referred to as the “Sub-Accounts”) into which Manager may
deposit or transfer funds for payment to third parties. Manager, on behalf of Owner, shall have
sole control of the Bank Accounts and Sub-Accounts and shall pay out of the same, to the extent of
the funds from time to time therein, all costs and Operating Costs incurred in connection with the
Operation of the Hotel and in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, Hotel
Personnel Costs, the Base Management Fee and Incentive Management Fee, and the Owner’s Expenses,
any other amounts due Manager or its Affiliates under this Agreement; and all other costs and
expenditures which Manager is permitted or required to make pursuant to this Agreement. If
permitted by the operating system of the depository bank and requested by Owner, Owner shall be
provided with “read-only” internet access to the Bank Accounts permitting Owner to examine balances
and activity in the Bank Accounts but not permitting actions affecting or relating to the deposit
or withdrawal of funds in such Bank Accounts. Manager shall establish controls intended to ensure
accurate reporting, safety and security of all transactions involving the Bank Accounts.

     15.2 Authorized Signatories. Individuals designated by Manager and specifically
approved by Owner shall be the only Persons authorized to make deposits into, and draw funds from,
the Bank Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. Manager shall establish such reasonable
controls to ensure accurate reporting of all transactions involving the Bank Accounts as Manager,
consistent with commercially reasonable business procedures and practices in light of the size and
nature of the operations at the Hotel, reasonably deems necessary or advisable.

38

 

Manager shall provide Owner, on a monthly basis and as requested by Owner, copies of bank
statements with respect to the Bank Accounts.

     15.3 Deposit and Disbursement of Funds. All revenues from the Operation of the Hotel
shall be deposited by Manager in the Bank Accounts. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, Manager
shall disburse to Owner each day, as directed by Owner, any funds remaining in the Bank Accounts
and the Accounts in excess of the sum of (a) all Operating Costs (including any installments of the
Base Management Fee and Incentive Management Fee) then due and unpaid and (b) $10,000,000.

     15.4 Cash Accounts. In addition to the Bank Accounts and Sub-Accounts, Manager shall
be entitled to maintain such funds as it reasonably deems proper in house banks or in petty cash
funds at the Hotel (all such accounts being referred to collectively as the “Accounts”).
All of the funds in the Accounts shall belong to Owner and Manager shall not commingle its own, or
any third party’s funds, with the funds in any of the Accounts.

ARTICLE 16

EXCUSED NON-PERFORMANCE

16.1 Excused Non-Performance. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement,
each Party shall be excused from the performance of any obligation hereunder (including Manager’s
obligation to Operate the Hotel in conformity with the Hotel Standard), and shall not be deemed in
default, for such period of time as such performance is prevented by a Force Majeure Event, a
breach of this Agreement by the other Party or (in the case of Manager) a limitation imposed on
Manager’s ability to expend funds in respect of the Hotel, due to Owner’s act or a shortage of
funds in the Bank Accounts and the Accounts (provided Manager has provided Owner with reasonably
timely notice of the need for additional funds and that the failure to expend funds by reason of
the operation of such limitation shall reasonably prevent Manager from meeting such obligation).

ARTICLE 17

shall not affect its right at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by a Party of any term,
covenant, representation or warranty contained herein shall be effective unless in writing. No

covenant, representation or warranty in any other instance.

     17.5 Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding
upon, the successors and permitted assigns of each of the Parties hereto, including any committee,
trustee or examiner with extended powers that is subsequently appointed in a bankruptcy case of any

a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or any person purchasing at a foreclosure sale or sale pursuant to
Section 363 of the bankruptcy code, shall agree as a condition to acquiring the Hotel to perform
all payment obligations in favor of Manager hereunder, including payment of the Management Fee
after early termination of Manager (to the extent a payment obligation exists pursuant to the terms
hereof), regardless of whether such termination occurred before or after the Hotel is transferred.
Manager may not assign any benefits or burdens hereunder without Owner’s prior written consent.

     17.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of
counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, and all of

the convenience of reference and are not a part of and are not intended to govern, limit, or aid in
the construction or interpretation of any term or provision hereof.

     17.8 Time of the Essence. To the extent that performance is to be governed by time,
time shall be deemed to be of the essence hereof.

     17.9 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced
in accordance with the internal laws, and not the laws of conflicts, of the State of Nevada.

     17.10 Dispute Resolution.

          (a) In the event of a dispute between the Parties arising out of this Agreement, the Parties
shall attempt in good faith to resolve the same within fifteen (15) days after one Party gives
written notice thereof to the other Party.

41

 

          (b) If the Parties are unable to resolve a dispute as aforesaid, either Party shall have the
right to submit such dispute to arbitration by giving the other Party a written notice (an
“Arbitration Notice”) specifying the nature of the dispute and stating that such dispute
shall be determined in accordance with this Section 17.10(b). Any such arbitration shall
be conducted in Las Vegas, Nevada, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (Expedited
Procedures) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), except that the provisions
of this Section 17.10(b) shall supersede any conflicting provision of such rules. Each
Party shall appoint an arbitrator within five (5) days after the delivery of an Arbitration Notice,
and if either Party shall fail timely to appoint an arbitrator the arbitrator appointed by the
other Party shall select an unrelated Person as the second arbitrator within four (4) days after
the expiration of such five (5) day period. The two arbitrators so appointed shall, if possible,
determine such matter within ten (10) after both of them are appointed. If such arbitrators are
unable for any reason to agree on such matter within such ten (10) day period, then any Party may
request JAMS/Endispute or any other arbitration organization, including the AAA, agreed to by the
Parties to provide an impartial third arbitrator and the Parties shall be bound by any appointment
so made. Within five (5) days after the third arbitrator has been appointed, each of the first two
arbitrators shall submit their respective determinations to the third arbitrator, who must select
one or the other of such determinations (whichever the third arbitrator believes to be closest to a
correct determination) within ten (10) days after the expiration of such five (5) day period, and
the selection so made shall in all cases be binding upon the Parties, and judgment upon such
selection may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. During such ten (10) day period, the
third arbitrator may schedule a hearing where the Parties and their advocates present evidence,
call witnesses and experts and cross-examine the other Party’s witnesses and experts. In the event
of the failure of an arbitrator to act for any reason, a successor shall be appointed within ten
(10) days of such failure using the same process by which such arbitrator was appointed. The
arbitrators conducting any arbitration shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall not
have the power to add to, subtract from or otherwise modify any provision in this Agreement. Each
Party agrees to sign all documents and to do all other things necessary to submit any such matter
to arbitration and hereby waives any right it may at any time have to revoke its agreement
hereunder that it shall submit to arbitration and shall abide by the decision rendered thereunder.
The substantially prevailing Party shall be entitled to receive from the other Party payment of all
fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the substantially
prevailing Party in connection with such arbitration.

     17.11 Enforcement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section
17.10, either Party shall be entitled to commence legal proceedings in a court of competent
jurisdiction (a) seeking such mandatory, declaratory or injunctive relief as may be necessary to
define or protect the rights and enforce the obligations contained in this Agreement pending the
resolution of any dispute in accordance with Section 17.10 or (b) involving the enforcement
of an arbitration decision or award arising out of this Agreement. The substantially prevailing
Party shall be entitled to receive from the other Party payment of all fees and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the substantially prevailing Party in
connection with such proceedings.

     17.12 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the
Parties and those other persons or entities specifically described herein, and, except as
aforesaid, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any remedy, claim or right upon
any third party.

42

 

     17.13 Incorporation. Any Schedules and Appendices attached hereto and
referred to herein are incorporated into and form a part of this Agreement.

     17.14 Negotiated Agreement. This Agreement is the product of negotiations of the
Parties, and in the enforcement or interpretation hereof, is to be interpreted in a neutral manner,
and any presumption with regard to interpretation for or against any Party by reason of that Party
having drafted or caused to be drafted this Agreement, or any portion hereof, shall not be
effective in regard to the interpretation hereof.

     17.15 Currency. All amounts due hereunder shall be invoiced and paid in United States
Dollars.

     17.16 Further Assurances. The Parties agree to execute and deliver such other
instruments and perform such acts, in addition to the matters herein specified, as may be
appropriate or reasonably necessary, from time to time, to effectuate the agreements and
understandings of the Parties, whether the same occur before or after the date of this Agreement.

     17.17 Compliance with Laws. Each Party shall comply with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations and orders of the United States, all other jurisdictions and any agency or court
thereof relating to the performance of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement.

     17.18 Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the Parties to this
Agreement is that of independent contractors. Under no circumstances shall either Party be deemed
an agent or representative of the other Party. Neither Party shall have authority to act for or
bind any other Party in any way, or represent that it is in any way responsible for acts of any
other Party. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to create a relationship
between the Parties (or their designees, contractors, employees or representatives) of partner,
joint venturer, principal and agent, or employer and employee.

     17.19 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, each Party
hereto shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, documentation,
execution of this Agreement and with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
For avoidance of doubt, this provision shall not limit the reimbursement of legal expenses incurred
by Manager in connection with the discharge of its duties as manager hereunder that are incurred in
connection with the performance or delivery of Services.

     17.20 Non-Recourse. The Parties acknowledge that none of the members of Owner and no
past, present or future director, officer, committee member, employee, incorporator, member,
partner or direct or indirect equity holder of Owner (such Persons, the “Non-Recourse
Parties”) is a party to this Agreement. The Parties further acknowledge that none of the
Non-Recourse Parties, whether individually or collectively, shall have any liability whatsoever of
any kind or description for any obligations or liabilities of Owner under this Agreement or for any
claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
Accordingly, the Parties hereby agree that in the event (i) there is any alleged breach or alleged
default or breach or default by any Party under this Agreement, or (ii) any Party has or may have
any claim arising from or relating to the terms of this Agreement, no Party shall, or shall have

43

 

any right to, commence any proceedings or otherwise seek to impose any liability or obligation
whatsoever of any kind or description on or against the Non-Recourse Parties, whether collectively
or individually, by reason of such alleged breach, default or claim.

Vegas, Nevada 89102 and ALIANTE GAMING, LLC (the “Company”), a Nevada limited liability
company with its principal place of business at 1505 South Pavillion Center Drive, Las Vegas,
Nevada 89135. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Hotel Management Agreement (the “Management
Agreement”), dated as of November 1, 2011, among the Company and Licensor. Each of the Licensor
and the Company is sometimes referred to herein as a “Party,” and all of them, together, are
sometimes referred to herein as the “Parties.”

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, Licensor is the owner or licensee of the trademarks, service marks and trade names
(the “Marks”) identified on Exhibit A, as such exhibit may be amended from time to
time by the parties to add or delete such marks as are necessary or as are no longer used in the
business of the Company; and

     WHEREAS, the Company wishes to use the Marks in connection with the operation of the Aliante
Station Hotel + Casino, located at 7300 Aliante Parkway, North Las Vegas, NV 89084
(“Hotel”); and

     WHEREAS, Licensor is willing to grant to the Company a license to use the Marks in connection
with the operation of the Hotel; and

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the valuable covenants herein, the Parties agree as
follows:

     1. LICENSE

               A. GRANT OF LICENSE

          Licensor hereby grants to the Company a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, limited
scope license to use the Marks in connection with the hotel and casino services and other goods and
services set forth in the registrations or applications for the Marks and marketing and advertising
directly related to the Hotel.

               B. TERRITORY OF LICENSE

          The Company may use the Marks only in connection with the limited scope set forth in
Section 1.A, above in the United States, its possessions and territories, and on the
Internet (provided, however, that any use on or through domain names owned by
Licensor shall only be acceptable after Licensor’s prior written approval, in Licensor’s sole and
absolute discretion), and, to the extent that the Company wishes to use any of the Marks for
advertising
and marketing of the Hotel in any other countries. Licensor shall arrange for the filing of
applications to register such Marks in Licensor’s name in each such country, provided that
the 

 

 

Company shall be responsible for, and shall properly reimburse Licensor for, all reasonable
fees, costs, and expenses in connection with such filings.

               C. TERM OF LICENSE

          The term of the license shall commence as of the Effective Date. On the Effective Date, this
Agreement will supersede the License and Support Agreement dated on June 6th, 2006 by and between
Station Casinos, Inc., Aliante Station, LLC and the Company (“2006 License and Support
Agreement”). This Agreement and the license provided herein will terminate automatically upon
and concurrently with the termination of the Management Agreement, provided that if the Company
elects to cause Licensor to provide Transition Services under the Management Agreement, then this
Agreement and the license provided for hereunder shall continue for as long as the Transition
Period, as defined in the Management Agreement, is in effect; provided, that in all
instances, the Company shall have complied with the quality control provisions of Section
1.D(i) below, subject to the applicable cure period set forth therein.

               D. QUALITY CONTROL

are of a quality which at all times comports with the requirements set forth in the 2006 License
and Support Agreement, and to make reasonably available to Licensor, at Licensor’s request,
specimens of all materials which at the time of the request bear any of the Marks and which are
being used to advertise and promote the Marks and the goods and services under the Marks. Licensor
shall also have the right, upon reasonable notice to the Company and during reasonable business
hours, and subject to applicable laws (including Gaming Laws), to inspect the Company’s premises to
ensure that the quality of the goods and services offered in connection with the Marks is being
maintained; provided, however, Licensor shall use commercially reasonable steps to
avoid unreasonably disrupting the Company’s business or operations.

               (ii) In the event that the Company shall fail to carry out or comply with the minimum quality
standards set forth in Section 1.D(i) above, and shall fail to cure such breach within
thirty (30) days after written notice from Licensor specifying the breach and, to the extent
reasonably practicable, the steps necessary to cure such breach, Licensor may terminate this
Agreement by giving written notice to the Company.

               E. MARKING

          The Company shall indicate on all printed materials bearing the Marks that the Marks are owned
by Licensor and are used under license, and shall otherwise include applicable federal registration
symbols and trademark notices, and any other notices and legends that may be reasonably required by
Licensor. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the independent
indicia between the Marks and any third Person’s mark (including, without limitation, any mark that

Section 1.F, above, any residual goodwill in and to any Mark that in any manner derived or
emanated for the use of existence of the Composite Mark shall inure directly and exclusively to
Licensor.

     2. INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

          A. The Company (and any receiver, liquidator, or trustee of, or successor to, the
Company) shall indemnify and hold harmless Licensor, and its officers, partners,
shareholders, directors, managers, members and employees (each an “Indemnitee”), from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, claims, proceedings, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, all reasonable costs and expenses of
defense, appeal and settlement of any and all suits, actions and proceedings involving an
Indemnitee, and all costs of investigation in connection therewith) (“Claims”) that
may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against an Indemnitee to the extent relating to
or arising out of, the Company’s negligent use or willful misuse of the Marks or breach by
the Company of its representations or covenants under this Agreement.

          B. Licensor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and their officers and
managers from and against any and all claims that may be imposed on,
incurred by, or asserted against an Indemnitee relating to or arising out of any (i)
infringement by the Company, Station or Licensor of third parties’ rights (including,

3

 

without
limitation, any federal or state copyright, patent, trademark, or other proprietary rights)
as a result of this Agreement or the Company’s or Licensor’s use of the Marks, (ii) breach of
agreement by Licensor with third parties, or (iii) breach by Licensor of any representation
or covenant under this Agreement; provided, however, with respect to clause
(i) hereof, Licensor’s indemnity of the Company shall not include the Company’s infringement
of third-party rights as a result of the Company’s use of the Marks in breach of this
Agreement.

          C. The indemnifying party pursuant to Sections 2.A or 2.B above shall
pay expenses as they are incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with any action, claim or
proceeding that such Indemnitee asserts in good faith to be subject to the indemnification
obligations set forth herein, upon receipt of an undertaking from such Indemnitee to repay
all amounts so paid by the indemnifying party to the extent that it is finally determined
that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified therefor under the terms hereof.

          D. In no event shall Licensor or the Company be liable for consequential, punitive or
special damages for any breach of this Agreement, and any liability of any such Party for any
breach of this Agreement shall be limited to actual damages suffered by the Party as a result
of such breach.

     3. COVENANTS

          A. The Company represents, covenants and agrees that, except as otherwise expressly
provided for herein, it:

               (i) shall not use or seek to register the Marks or any confusingly similar trademark, service

               (ii) shall not challenge or contest the ownership or validity of, or knowingly facilitate the

               (iii) shall keep confidential and secret and shall not disclose or make available any
Confidential and Proprietary Information (as hereinafter defined), directly or indirectly to anyone

Only the employees of the Company or any manager or managing member of the Company who are required
to know the details of the Confidential and Proprietary Information to enable the Company to

public through no fault of the Company, known to the Company prior to its disclosure by Licensor,
through a source that is not known by the Company to be subject to any obligation, contractual or
otherwise, to keep such information confidential or
required to be disclosed by law. As used in this Agreement, “Confidential and Proprietary
Information” shall mean any information relating to technical, marketing, product and/or

4

               (iv) shall not object to any use by Licensor of the Marks, whether or not related to the
gaming industry; and

               (v) shall obtain all applicable permits and licenses in connection with its obligations under
this Agreement, except for those required to be maintained by Licensor, or where the failure to be
so licensed, authorized or qualified would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to
fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.

          B. Licensor represents, covenants and agrees that, except as otherwise expressly
provided for herein:

               (i) the Marks are registered or the subject of applications as set forth in Exhibit A;
Licensor has the right to license or sublicense (as applicable) the Marks as contemplated herein;
and Licensor will arrange to make filings deemed reasonably necessary by Licensor to maintain the
registered or applied for status of the Marks;

               (ii) to Licensor’s actual knowledge after no investigation, the Marks do not materially
infringe on any trademark or other intellectual property right of third parties;

               (iii) Licensor has the corporate authority to execute this Agreement, and the legal right
(without the consent of any other Person) to grant the rights and licenses set forth herein;

               (iv) Neither Licensor nor, to the actual knowledge of Licensor after no investigation, any
third party is in material breach of any material agreement related to the Marks that would have a
material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to fully exploit the Marks;

               (v) Licensor shall take commercially reasonable steps to address infringement by third parties
of the Marks that would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to fully
exploit the Marks; and

               (vi) Licensor shall keep confidential and shall not disclose or make available any
Confidential and Proprietary Information directly or indirectly to anyone other than their own
employees who are required to know the details of such Confidential and Proprietary Information in
order for Licensor to provide services to the Company; provided, however, the
foregoing requirement of non-disclosure does not apply to information generally known to the public
through no fault of Licensor, known by Licensor prior to its disclosure through a source that is
not known by Licensor, as applicable, to be subject to any obligation, contractual or otherwise, to
keep such information confidential, or information required to be disclosed by law.
