in the Indenture are incorporated herein by reference and, together with
covenants in this Article 3, shall, to the extent applicable, be
covenants running with the land.

 

Section 3.7                                   Condemnation Awards and Insurance Proceeds.

 

(a)                                  Condemnation
Awards.  Grantor, immediately upon
obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation
of the Trust Property or any portion thereof, will notify Beneficiary of the
pendency of such proceedings.  Except as
set forth in the Indenture, Beneficiary may participate in any such proceedings
and Grantor from time to time will deliver to Beneficiary all instruments
requested by it to permit such participation. 
Grantor assigns all awards and compensation to which it is entitled for
any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu thereof, to
Beneficiary and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Indenture. Grantor hereby waives all rights to such awards and
compensation described in the foregoing sentence.  Grantor, upon request by Beneficiary, shall make, execute and
deliver any and all instruments requested for the purpose of confirming the

 

10

 

assignment of the
aforesaid awards and compensation to Beneficiary free and clear of any liens,
charges or encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever.  Grantor specifically, unconditionally and
irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner granted under applicable law,
including NRS 37.115, as amended or recodified from time to time, which provide
for an allocation of condemnation proceeds between a property owner and a
lienholder, and any other law or successor statute of similar import.

 

(b)                                 Insurance
Proceeds.  Without limitation to the
requirements of Section 4.23 of the Indenture, Grantor shall maintain such
insurance coverage as is customarily carried by owners and operators of first
class casino and hotel complexes in Las Vegas, Nevada and in no event less than
that required under the Ground Leases and the Superior Deed of Trust.  Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds
of any insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Trust
Property.  Except as set forth in the
Indenture, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds
and authorizes and directs the issuer of each of such insurance policies to
make payment for all such losses directly to Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor
and Beneficiary jointly.  In the event
that the issuer of such insurance policy fails to disburse directly or solely
to Beneficiary but disburses instead either solely to Grantor or to Grantor and
Beneficiary, jointly, Grantor shall immediately endorse and transfer such
proceeds to Beneficiary.  Upon Grantor’s
failure to do so, Beneficiary may execute such endorsements or transfers from
and in the name of Grantor, and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary
as Grantor’s agent and attorney-in-fact so to do.

 

(c)                                  Beneficiary
acknowledges that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.7, Grantor has granted certain rights in and to condemnation
awards and insurance proceeds pursuant to the Superior Deed of Trust and,
subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of this
Section 3.7 are entered into subject to such rights.

 

Section 3.8                                   Costs
of Defending and Upholding the Lien. 
If any action or proceeding is commenced to which action or proceeding
Trustee or Beneficiary is made a party or in which it becomes necessary for
Trustee or Beneficiary to defend or uphold the lien of this Deed of Trust,
including any extensions, renewals, amendments or modifications thereof,
Grantor shall, on demand, reimburse Trustee and Beneficiary for all expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable
appellate attorneys’ fees) incurred by Trustee or Beneficiary in any such
action or proceeding and all such expenses shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.  In any action or proceeding to
foreclose this Deed of Trust or to recover or collect the Indebtedness, the
provisions of law relating to the recovering of costs, disbursements and
allowances shall prevail unaffected by this covenant.

 

Section 3.9                                   TRANSFER OF THE SECURED PROPERTY.  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED PURSUANT TO
THE TERMS OF THE

 

11

 

INDENTURE, GRANTOR SHALL
NOT SELL, ASSIGN, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBER, CREATE A SECURITY INTEREST IN,
LEASE, OR OTHERWISE HYPOTHECATE, ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE TRUST PROPERTY
WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF BENEFICIARY.  THE CONSENT BY BENEFICIARY TO ANY SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER,
PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION OF A SECURITY INTEREST IN, LEASE, OR OTHER
HYPOTHECATION OF, ANY PORTION OF THE TRUST PROPERTY SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO
CONSTITUTE A NOVATION OR A CONSENT TO ANY FURTHER SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER,
PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION OF A SECURITY INTEREST IN, LEASE, OR OTHER
HYPOTHECATION, OR TO WAIVE THE RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY, INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND/OR
HOLDERS, AT THEIR OPTION, TO DECLARE THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED HEREBY
IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE, WITHOUT NOTICE TO GRANTOR OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR
ENTITY, UPON ANY SUCH SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION
OF A SECURITY INTEREST, LEASE, OR OTHER HYPOTHECATION TO WHICH BENEFICIARY
SHALL NOT HAVE CONSENTED.

 

Section 3.10                            Security Deposits.  To the extent required by law, or after an
Event of Default has occurred and during its continuance, if required by
Beneficiary, all security deposits of tenants of the Trust Property shall be
treated as trust funds not to be commingled with any other funds of
Grantor.  Within twenty (20) days after
request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall furnish satisfactory evidence of
compliance with this Section 3.10, as necessary, together with a
statement of all security deposits deposited by the tenants and copies of all Leases
not theretofore delivered to Beneficiary, as requested thereby, certified by
Grantor.

hereof;

 

(c)                                  Grantor
enjoys the quiet and peaceful possession of the leasehold estate granted by
each Ground Lease;

 

12

 

(d)                                 Grantor
has not delivered or received any notices of default under the Ground Leases,
and there are no circumstances which, with the passage of time or the giving of
notice, or both, would constitute a default under the Ground Leases;

 

(e)                                  to
Grantor’s best knowledge, the lessor is not in default under any of the terms
of the Ground Leases on its part to be observed or performed;

 

(f)                                    the
execution, delivery and performance of this Deed of Trust do not require any
consent (other than those consents which have been obtained and are in full
force and effect) under, and will not contravene any provisions of, or cause a
default under, the Ground Leases;

 

(g)                                 the
term of each of the Ground Leases (including all renewal terms currently
provided for in such Ground Lease) expires no earlier than January 1,
2022;

 

(h)                                 each
of the Ground Leases, by its terms or the terms of any other agreement executed
by Grantor or its predecessors in title, is not subordinate to any mortgage or
other lease of the fee interest in the Premises or any lien, encumbrance or
matter whatsoever;

 

(i)                                     each
Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been duly recorded and there have been
no amendments to each such Ground Lease since said recordation;

 

(j)                                     Grantor
has delivered to Beneficiary a true and accurate copy of each of the Ground
Leases;

 

(k)                                  as
of the date of this Deed of Trust, no Leases are in effect and no Leases have
been entered into that are due to come into effect at a later date (the license
for the car rental desk in the lobby of the Casino Hotel not being a Lease for
the purposes of this representation);

 

(l)                                     Grantor
promptly shall pay the rent and all other sums and charges mentioned in, and
payable under, the Ground Leases;

 

(m)                               Grantor,
at its sole cost and expense, shall exercise all renewal options under each
Ground Lease, promptly and in accordance with the provisions of each such
Ground Lease, so that the term of each Ground Lease shall not expire before the
date upon which Beneficiary releases the liens and security interests created
by this Deed of Trust or reconveys the Trust Property to Grantor in accordance
with the provisions of Section 9.7 of this Deed of Trust.  Grantor shall give written notice to
Beneficiary (i) within five business days after the date on which each option
first becomes exercisable and (ii) within two business days of Grantor’s
exercise of each

 

13

 

option (together with a
copy of the option exercise notice). 
Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as its attorney in fact,
with power of substitution, to exercise such option on behalf of Grantor if
Grantor is required under the foregoing provisions to exercise said option but
for any reason fails or refuses to exercise said option within a reasonable
time prior to the expiration of Grantor’s time to exercise the option;

 

(n)                                 Grantor
promptly shall perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions
required to be performed and observed by the lessee under the Ground Leases,
the breach of which could permit any party to the Ground Leases to validly
terminate the Ground Leases (including, without limitation, all payment
obligations), shall do all things necessary to preserve and to keep unimpaired
its rights under the Ground Leases, shall not waive, excuse or discharge any of
the material obligations of the lessor without Beneficiary’s prior written
consent in each instance, and shall diligently and continuously enforce the material
obligations of the lessor under the Ground Leases;

 

(o)                                 Grantor
shall not do, permit or suffer any event or omission as a result of which there
could occur a default under the Ground Leases or any event which, with the
giving of notice or the passage or time, or both, would constitute a default
under the Ground Leases which could permit any party to the Ground Leases to
validly terminate the Ground Leases (including, without limitation, a default
in any payment obligation), and Grantor shall obtain the consent or approval of
the lessor to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the Ground Leases;

 

(p)                                 Grantor
shall not (1) permit the amendment, modification or alteration of any of the
provisions of the Ground Leases in any material respect, without Beneficiary’s
prior written consent in each instance or (2) agree to any termination or
surrender of the Ground Leases, without Beneficiary’s prior written consent in
each instance;

 

(q)                                 Grantor
shall deliver to Beneficiary copies of any notice of default by any party under
the Ground Leases, or of any notice from the lessor of its intention to
terminate the Ground Leases or to re-enter and take possession of the Premises,
immediately upon delivery or receipt of such notice, as the case may be;

 

(r)                                    Grantor
shall promptly furnish to Beneficiary copies of such information and evidence
as Beneficiary may reasonably request concerning Grantor’s due observance,
performance and compliance with the terms, covenants and conditions of the
Ground Leases;

 

(s)                                  Grantor
knows of no adverse claim to the title or possession of Grantor or the lessor;

 

14

 

(t)                                    Grantor
shall not consent to the subordination of the Ground Leases to any mortgage or
other lease of the fee interest in the Premises or any lien, encumbrance or
matter whatsoever;

 

(u)                                 Grantor,
at its sole cost and expense, shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary or
Trustee, within five (5) days after request, such documents, instruments or
agreements as may be required to permit Beneficiary or Trustee to cure any
default under the Ground Leases;

 

(v)                                 Grantor
shall, upon request, furnish Beneficiary with executed copies of all Ground
Leases and any Leases hereafter entered into and all amendments, modifications
and supplements thereto;

 

(w)                               Grantor
shall (i)  observe and perform in all material respects all the
obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall not do or permit
to be done anything to materially impair the value of the Leases as security
for the Indebtedness and the Obligations; (ii) promptly send copies to
Beneficiary of all notices of default which Grantor shall send or receive
thereunder; (iii) enforce all the material terms, covenants and conditions
contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed
or performed, (iv) not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in

shall not, except to the extent Grantor has received the prior written consent
of Beneficiary, (A) alter, modify or change the terms of any Lease in any
material respect; (B) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any
Lease not in accordance with its terms; and (C) cancel or terminate any
Lease or accept a surrender thereof, unless such tenant is in default
thereunder and a new Lease has been entered into on substantially the same
terms or more favorable terms as the canceled Lease.

 

Section 3.12                            Additional
Ground Lease and Lease Covenants.

 

(a)                                  Grantor
shall give Beneficiary and Trustee not less than thirty (30) days prior written
notice of the date on which Grantor shall apply to any court or other
governmental authority for authority and permission to reject any of the Ground
Leases or Leases in the event that there shall be filed by or against Grantor
any petition, action or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or under any other
similar federal or state law now or hereafter in effect and if Grantor
determines to reject any of the Ground

 

15

 

Leases or Leases.  Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to serve upon Grantor within such thirty (30)
day period a notice stating that (i) Beneficiary or Trustee demands that
Grantor assume and assign any of the Ground Leases or Leases to Beneficiary or
Trustee subject to and in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and
(ii) Beneficiary covenants to cure or provide reasonably adequate
assurance thereof with respect to all defaults reasonably susceptible of being
cured by Beneficiary or Trustee and of future performance under the applicable
Ground Lease or Leases.  If Beneficiary
or Trustee serves upon Grantor the notice described above, Grantor shall not
seek to reject any of the Ground Leases or Leases and shall comply with the
demand provided for in clause (i) above within fifteen (15) days after the
notice shall have been given by Beneficiary and Trustee.

 

(b)                                 During
the continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the
right, but not the obligation, (i) to perform and comply with all obligations
of Grantor under the Ground Leases or Leases without relying on any grace
period provided therein, (ii) to do and take, without any obligation to do so,
such action as Beneficiary or Trustee deems necessary or desirable to prevent
or cure any default by Grantor under any of the Ground Leases or Leases,
including, without limitation, any act, deed, matter or thing whatsoever that
Grantor may do in order to cure a default under the applicable Ground Lease or
Leases and (iii) to enter in and upon the Land or any part thereof to such
extent and as often as Beneficiary or Trustee  deems necessary or desirable
in order to prevent or cure any default of Grantor under the Ground Leases or
Leases.  Grantor shall on demand,
reimburse Beneficiary for all advances made and expenses incurred by Beneficiary
in exercising the foregoing rights (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements), together with interest thereon at three
percentage points above the “prime rate” announced by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. at
its principal office in San Francisco from time to time (the “Applicable
Rate”) from the date that an advance is made or expense is incurred,
to and including the date the same is paid and such monies so expended by
Beneficiary with interest thereon shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.  Grantor shall, within five (5) days after
written request is made therefor by Beneficiary or Trustee, execute and deliver
to Beneficiary or to any party designated by Beneficiary or Trustee, such
further instruments, agreements, powers, assignments, conveyances or the like
as may be reasonably necessary to complete or perfect the interest, rights or
powers of Beneficiary pursuant to this paragraph or as may otherwise be
required by Beneficiary  or Trustee.

 

(c)                                  During
the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event of any arbitration under
or pursuant to the Ground Lease or Leases in which Beneficiary elects to
participate, Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary and Trustee as its
true and lawful attorneys-in-fact (which appointment shall be deemed coupled
with an interest) to exercise, during the continuance of an Event of Default,
all right, title and interest of Grantor in connection with such arbitration,
including, without limitation, the right to appoint arbitrators and to conduct
arbitration proceedings on behalf of Grantor

 

16

 

and Beneficiary.  All costs and expenses incurred by
Beneficiary and Trustee in connection with such arbitration and the settlement
thereof shall be borne solely by Grantor, including, without limitation,
attorneys’ fees and disbursements. 
Nothing contained in this paragraph shall obligate Beneficiary or
Trustee to participate in any such arbitration.

 

(d)                                 During
the continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to proceed in respect of any claim, suit, action or
proceeding relating to the rejection of any of the Ground Leases by the fee
owner of the Land as a result of the fee owner’s bankruptcy, including, but not
limited to, the right to file and prosecute any and all proofs of claims,
complaints, notices and other documents in any case in respect of the fee owner
under and pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code.

 

(e)                                  With
respect to each Ground Lease, Grantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
assigns to Beneficiary (i) any right which Grantor has pursuant to the terms of
the Ground Lease to renew and/or extend the term thereof, (ii) any right which
Grantor has pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease to cancel or terminate
the Ground Lease, and (iii) any option or right that Grantor has pursuant to
the Ground Lease to purchase any or all of the premises demised thereunder,
provided that Beneficiary shall not exercise any such rights or options prior
to the occurrence of any default.

 

(f)                                    With
respect to each Ground Lease, if any action or proceeding shall be instituted
to evict Grantor or to recover possession of the demised premises or any part
thereof or interest therein or any action or proceeding otherwise affecting the
Ground Lease or this Deed of Trust shall be instituted, then Grantor will,
immediately upon service thereof on or to Grantor, or by Grantor, deliver to
Beneficiary a true and complete copy of each petition, summons, complaint,
notice of motion, order to show cause and of all other provisions, pleadings,
and papers, however designated, served in any such action or proceeding.

 

Section 3.13                            Estoppel Certificates.  Grantor shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain and deliver to Beneficiary within twenty (20) days after
written demand by Beneficiary, an estoppel certificate from the applicable
lessor under the Ground Leases or applicable lessee or sublessee under the
Leases setting forth (i) the name of the lessee and the lessor thereunder,
(ii) that the applicable Ground Lease or Lease is in full force and effect
and has not been modified or, if it has been modified, the date of each
modification (together with copies of each such modification), (iii) the
basic rent payable under the applicable Ground Lease or Lease, (iv) the
date to which all rental charges have been paid by the lessee under the
applicable Ground Lease or Lease, (v) whether a notice of default has been
received by the fee owner or lessor which has not been cured, and if such
notice has been received, the date it was received and the nature

 

17

 

of the default,
(vi) whether there are any alleged defaults of the lessee under the
applicable Ground Lease or Lease and, if there are, setting forth the nature
thereof in reasonable detail, and (vii) if the lessee under the applicable
Ground Lease or Lease shall be in default, the default.

 

Section 3.14                            No Liability.  Anything contained herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, this Deed of Trust shall not constitute an assignment of the
Ground Leases within the meaning of any provision thereof prohibiting its
assignment and Beneficiary and Trustee  shall have no liability or obligation
thereunder by reason of its acceptance of this Deed of Trust.  Beneficiary shall be liable for the
obligations of the lessee arising under the Ground Leases for only that period
of time which Beneficiary is in actual possession of the applicable premises or
has acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding all of Grantor’s
right, title and interest therein.

 

Section 3.15                            No Merger.  It is hereby agreed that the fee title to
Premises and the leasehold estate created by the Ground Leases shall not merge
but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of
said estates in either lessor, Grantor or a third party, whether by purchase or
otherwise.  If Grantor shall acquire fee
title to the Premises or any other estate, title or interest in the Premises or
any portion thereof, then, immediately upon Grantor’s acquisition thereof, this  Deed
of Trust automatically shall spread to cover Grantor’s interest in such leased
property on the same terms, covenants and conditions as set forth herein.  Upon such acquisition, Grantor, at its sole
cost and expense, shall deliver to Beneficiary a Title Insurance Policy issued
by a title insurance company acceptable to Beneficiary insuring that this Deed
of Trust, as so spread to cover Grantor’s interest in such leased property, is
a valid lien on Grantor’s interest therein, subject only to the Permitted Liens
and the Superior Deed of Trust.  It is
the intention of Grantor and Beneficiary that no documents, instruments or
agreements shall be necessary to confirm the foregoing spread of this  Deed
of Trust  to
cover Grantor’s interest in such leased property, as aforesaid, and that such
spreading shall occur automatically upon the consummation of Grantor’s
acquisition of such estate, title or interest to such leased property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantor shall
make, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Beneficiary and Trustee or so cause
to be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered to Beneficiary and Trustee, in
form satisfactory to Beneficiary and Trustee, all such further or other
documents, instruments, agreements or assurances as may be required by
Beneficiary and Trustee to confirm the foregoing spread of this Deed of Trust
to cover Grantor’s interest in such leased property.  Grantor shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred by Beneficiary
and Trustee in connection with the preparation, execution, acknowledgment,
delivery and/or recording of any such documents, including, without limitation,
all filing, registration and recording fees and charges, documentary stamps,
mortgage taxes, intangible taxes, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and
disbursements.

 

18

 

Section 3.16                            FF&E
Financing Arrangements.  Grantor
shall comply with the terms of all FF&E Financing Arrangements.  If Grantor has acquired or hereafter
acquires Operational Property or Fixtures subject to any FF&E Financing
Arrangement, or becomes lessee under a lease for any of the same, the Lien of
this Deed of Trust on such acquired or leased assets shall be subordinate to
the Lien of such FF&E Financing Arrangement and Beneficiary, at Grantor’s
cost, shall execute and deliver to Grantor such documents as Grantor may
reasonably request evidencing such subordination.

 

Section 3.17                            Maintenance
of Premises.  Grantor shall
maintain and keep the Premises in such good repair, working order and condition
and shall make or cause to be made all such needful and proper repairs,
renewals and replacements thereto consistent with the standards of other first
class casino and hotel complexes in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Grantor shall occupy and continuously
operate the Casino Hotel and keep the Casino Hotel supplied with Tangible
Personal Property, all in a manner consistent with the standards of other first
class casino and hotel complexes in Las Vegas, Nevada.

 

Section 3.18                            Alterations.  All alterations to the Premises (a) shall be
carried out in conformity with the Indebtedness Documents, Legal Requirements
and insurance requirements in a good and workmanlike manner and prosecuted with
reasonable dispatch subject to force majeure; (b) shall be undertaken only with
appropriate workers compensation insurance covering workers engaged in such
alterations and appropriate commercial general liability insurance covering all
hazards resulting from such alterations; and (c) affecting the structure of any
of the Improvements, the building systems or any material portion of the
Improvements, (i) shall be carried out under the supervision of a reputable
architect with no less than ten (10) years’ experience in the design and
construction of first class casino and hotel complexes in Las Vegas, Nevada,
(ii) shall be notified to Beneficiary prior to the commencement thereof and,
upon Beneficiary’s request, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary copies of all
drawings, plans, specifications and cost estimates therefor prepared and
approved in writing by said architect and accompanied by a certificate of such
architect stating that such drawings, plans and specifications are in
compliance with all Legal Requirements and insurance requirements, and (iii)
shall not be commenced until Grantor has furnished to Beneficiary, at Grantor’s
sole cost and expense, a surety bond or bonds, covering performance, labor and
material payments with respect to the work, naming Beneficiary as obligee (or
as co-obligee with the beneficiary under the Superior Deed of Trust and
Grantor), issued by a responsible surety company, authorized to do business in
the State of Nevada, in a form generally and customarily used by such surety in
an amount equal to the estimated cost of construction of the work, guaranteeing
the performance and completion of such construction, substantially in
conformity with the plans and specifications and within a reasonable time
subject to force majeure free and clear of all Liens, claims and liabilities
for the cost of such alterations (if such surety bond is unobtainable, Grantor
shall provide equivalent security in the form of cash, letter

 

19

 

of credit or other
guarantee).  No alterations of any kind
shall be made which shall change the primary use of the Casino Hotel from its
use as a gaming and hotel facility.

of Default.  The occurrence of
any of the following events shall constitute an event of default under this
Deed of Trust (each an “Event of Default”):

 

(a)                                  an
“Event of Default” (as such term is defined in the Indenture) shall have
occurred;

 

(b)                                 the

consecutive days or (ii) any other Permit which results in the cessation or
suspension of all or a substantial portion of the operations of the Casino

of an Asset Sale permitted under the Indenture or any voluntary relinquishment
that is, in the judgment of the Board of Directors of Parent, both desirable in
the conduct of the business of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole, and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders;

 

(c)                                  if
any event or omission shall occur which, with the giving of notice or the
passage of time, or both, would constitute a default by Grantor under the

Ground Lease, or if any of the Ground Leases shall otherwise terminate for any
reason whatsoever, except to the extent permitted by the terms and conditions
of the Indenture;

 

(d)                                 if

any misstatement or misrepresentation exists now or hereafter in any warranty
or representation set forth in Article 3 hereof.

ARTICLE 5

REMEDIES AND FORECLOSURE

 

Section 5.1                                   Remedies.  If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary
may, at Beneficiary’s election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise
any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:

 

(a)                                  To
the extent permitted under the Indenture and in accordance with the provisions
thereof, declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, without
further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby
is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall become immediately
due and payable.

 

(b)                                 Notify
all tenants of the Premises and all others obligated on leases of any part of
the Premises that all rents and other sums owing on leases have been assigned
to Beneficiary and are to be paid directly to Beneficiary, and to enforce
payment of all obligations owing on leases, by suit, ejectment, cancellation,
releasing, reletting or otherwise, whether or not Beneficiary has taken possession
of the Premises, and to exercise whatever rights and remedies Beneficiary may
have under any assignment of rents and leases.

 

(c)                                  As
and to the extent permitted by law, enter the Trust Property, either personally
or by its agents, nominees or attorneys, and take exclusive possession thereof
and thereupon, Beneficiary may (i) use, operate, manage, control, insure,
maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the
Premises and conduct business thereat; (ii) complete any construction on the
Premises in such manner and form as Beneficiary deems advisable in the
reasonable exercise of its judgment; (iii) exercise all rights and power of
Grantor with respect to the Premises, whether in the name of Grantor, or
otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or
modify leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and
receive all earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits and other income of the
Premises and every part thereof, which rights shall not be in limitation of
Beneficiary’s rights under any assignment of rents and leases securing the
Indebtedness; and (iv)  apply the receipts from the Premises to the
payment of the Indebtedness, after deducting therefrom all expenses (including attorneys’
fees) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts
necessary to pay the taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges in
connection with the Trust Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation
for the services of Beneficiary, its counsel, agents and employees.

 

(d)                                 Hold,
lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Trust Property upon such
terms and conditions as Beneficiary may deem reasonable under the circumstances
(making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements

 

21

 

and taking other actions,
from time to time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all
Rents and other amounts collected by Trustee in connection therewith in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.7 hereof.

 

(e)                                  Require
Grantor to assemble any collateral under the UCC and make it available to
Beneficiary, at Grantor’s sole risk and expense, at a place or places to be
designated by Beneficiary, in its sole discretion.

 

(f)                                    Institute
proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, either by
judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Trust Property may be
sold for cash or credit in accordance with applicable law in one or more
parcels as Beneficiary may determine. 
Except as otherwise required by applicable law, with respect to any
notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that ten (10) days’
prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.  At any such sale by virtue of any judicial
proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be
completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest,
claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in
equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both
at law and in equity against Grantor, and against all other Persons claiming or
to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under
Grantor.  Beneficiary, the Indenture
Trustee or any of the Holders may be a purchaser at such sale.  If Beneficiary is the highest bidder,
Beneficiary may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be
distributed to Beneficiary against the Indebtedness in lieu of paying
cash.  In the event this Deed of Trust
is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement and valuation of the Trust
Property is waived. In the event of any sale made under or by virtue of this Article 5
(whether made by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of
foreclosure and sale) the entire Indebtedness, if not previously due and
payable, immediately thereupon shall become due and payable. The failure to
make any such tenants of the Premises party to any such foreclosure proceedings
and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted to be by Grantor, a
defense to any proceedings instituted by Beneficiary to collect the sums
secured hereby.

 

(g)                                 With
or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures
provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure
of this Deed of Trust for the portion of the Indebtedness then due and payable
(if Beneficiary shall have elected not to declare the entire Indebtedness to be
immediately due and owing), subject to the continuing lien of this Deed of
Trust for the balance of the Indebtedness not then due; or (1) as and to the
extent permitted by law, sell for cash or upon credit the Trust Property or any
part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of
Grantor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales,
as an entity or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after
such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of
a sale, by

 

22

 

foreclosure or otherwise,
of less than all of the Trust Property, this Deed of Trust shall continue as a
lien on the remaining portion of the Trust Property; or (2) institute an
action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any
covenant, condition or agreement contained herein or in any Indebtedness
Document; or (3) to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover judgment on
the Indenture either before, during or after any proceedings for the
enforcement of this Deed of Trust.

 

(h)                                 Make
application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such
court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Grantor or regard to
the adequacy of the Trust Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the
appointment of a receiver of the Trust Property, and Grantor irrevocably
consents to such appointment.  Any such
receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar
cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the
Trust Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and shall apply
such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7
hereof.  Beneficiary may request, in
connection with any foreclosure proceeding hereunder, that the Nevada Gaming
Commission petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
supervisor to conduct the normal gaming activities on the Premises following
such foreclosure proceeding.

 

(i)                                     Exercise
all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Indebtedness
Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity.

 

Section 5.2                                   Separate
Sales.  The Trust Property may
be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee in its
sole discretion may elect; the right of sale arising out of any Event of
Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.

 

Section 5.3                                   Remedies
Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.  Beneficiary and Trustee shall have all rights, remedies and
recourses granted in the Indebtedness Documents and available at law or equity
(including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be cumulated and concurrent,
(b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against
Grantor or others obligated under the Indebtedness Documents, or against the
Trust Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of
Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case may be, (c) may be exercised as often
as occasion therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any
of them shall not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other
right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be,
nonexclusive.  No action by Beneficiary
or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the
Indebtedness Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure
any Event of Default.

 

Section 5.4                                   Release
of and Resort to Collateral. 
Beneficiary may release, regardless of consideration and without the
necessity for any notice to or consent

 

23

 

by the holder of any
subordinate lien on the Trust Property, any part of the Trust Property without,
as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or
releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by the
Indebtedness Documents or their status as a lien and security interest in and
to the Trust Property second in priority to the Superior Deed of Trust
only.  For payment of the Indebtedness,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.

 

Section 5.5                                   Waiver
of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets.  To the fullest extent permitted by law,
Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all
benefit that might accrue to Grantor by virtue of any present or future statute
of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Trust Property from
attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution,
exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,
(b) all notices of any Event of Default or of any election by Trustee or
Beneficiary to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse
provided for under the Indebtedness Documents, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets, a sale in inverse order of alienation or to require sale
of assets in a particular order, including rights provided by NRS 100.040 and
100.050, as such sections may be amended or recodified from time to time.  Each successor and assign of Grantor,
including any holder of a lien or security interest subordinate to this Deed of
Trust, by acceptance of its interest or lien or security interest, agrees that
it shall be bound by the above waiver, as if it had given the waiver itself.

 

Section 5.6                                   Discontinuance
of Proceedings.  If Beneficiary
or Trustee shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse
permitted under the Indebtedness Documents and shall thereafter elect to
discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case
may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event,
Grantor, Beneficiary and Trustee shall be restored to their former positions
with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Indebtedness Documents,
the Trust Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and
powers of Beneficiary and Trustee shall continue as if the right, remedy or
recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment
shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of
Beneficiary or Trustee thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse
under the Indebtedness Documents for such Event of Default.

 

Section 5.7                                   Application
of Proceeds.  The proceeds of
any sale made under or by virtue of this Article 5, together with
any Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management,
operation or other use of the Trust Property, shall be applied by Beneficiary
or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless
otherwise required by applicable law:

 

24

 

(a)                                  to
the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Trust
Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including, without limitation (1) trustee’s and receiver’s fees and
expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s
certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and
expenses, and (4) costs of advertisement;

 

(b)                                 to
the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations in such
manner and order of preference as set forth in the Indenture; and

 

(c)                                  the
balance, if any, to the payment of the Persons legally entitled thereto.

 

Section 5.8                                   Occupancy
After Foreclosure.  Except as
otherwise required by applicable law, any sale of the Trust Property or any
part thereof in accordance with Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f)
hereof will divest all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to the
property sold.  Subject to applicable
law, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of
the property purchased.  If Grantor
retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such
sale, Grantor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and
will, if Grantor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to
eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.

 

Section 5.9                                   Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs
of Enforcement.

 

(a)                                  If
any Event of Default exists, Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of
Grantor.  All sums advanced and expenses
incurred at any time by Beneficiary under this Section 5.9, or
otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any of the other Indebtedness Documents
or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced
or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at
the Applicable Rate, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall
be secured by this Deed of Trust.

 

(b)                                 Grantor
shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and
all costs and expenses related to legal work, research and litigation) of or
incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the
other Indebtedness Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of
the Indebtedness or any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other
Indebtedness Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting
the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof, by litigation or
otherwise.

 

25

 

Section 5.10                            No
Mortgagee in Possession. 
Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5,
the assignment of the rents and leases under Article 6, the security
interests under Article 7, nor any other remedies afforded to
Beneficiary under the Indebtedness Documents, at law or in equity shall cause
Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in
possession of the Trust Property, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to lease
the Trust Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under
any of the Leases or otherwise.

 

Section 5.11                            WAIVER OF GRANTOR’S RIGHTS.  BY EXECUTION
OF THIS DEED OF TRUST, GRANTOR EXPRESSLY: 
(A) ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY, INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND/OR
HOLDERS TO ACCELERATE THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE INDENTURE OR OTHER
INDEBTEDNESS DOCUMENTS UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT;  (B) TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS WHICH GRANTOR MAY HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF THE
UNITED STATES, THE VARIOUS PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTIONS FOR THE SEVERAL
STATES, OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW, TO NOTICE AND TO JUDICIAL
HEARING PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY BENEFICIARY OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY HEREIN
PROVIDED TO BENEFICIARY;  (C) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT GRANTOR HAS READ THIS DEED OF TRUST AND ITS PROVISIONS HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED
FULLY TO GRANTOR AND GRANTOR HAS CONSULTED WITH LEGAL COUNSEL OF GRANTOR’S
CHOICE PRIOR TO EXECUTING THIS DEED OF TRUST; 
AND (D) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL WAIVERS OF THE AFORESAID RIGHTS OF
GRANTOR HAVE BEEN MADE KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND WILLINGLY BY GRANTOR AS
PART OF A BARGAINED FOR LOAN TRANSACTION.

 

ARTICLE 6

ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES

 

Section 6.1                                   Assignment.  In furtherance of and in addition to the
assignment made by Grantor in Section 2.1 of this Deed of Trust,
Grantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and
conveys to Trustee (for the benefit of Beneficiary) and to Beneficiary all of
its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or
hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all
Rents.  This assignment is an absolute
assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  So long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing and to the extent not prohibited by the Indenture,
Grantor shall have a revocable license from Trustee and Beneficiary to exercise
all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to
receive and collect all

 

26

 

Rents and to hold the
Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance of the Obligations and to
otherwise use the same.  The foregoing
license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing. 
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste,
adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Grantor, the license
herein granted shall automatically expire and terminate, without notice by
Trustee or Beneficiary (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by
Grantor).

 

Section 6.2                                   Perfection
Upon Recordation.  Grantor
acknowledges that Beneficiary and Trustee have taken all actions necessary to
obtain, and that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust Beneficiary and Trustee
shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully
perfected, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all
security for such Leases, subject only to the assignment of such Rents pursuant
to the Superior Deed of Trust and/or any separate assignment of Rents executed
in conjunction therewith.  Grantor
acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust, Trustee’s
and Beneficiary’s interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected,
“choate” and enforced as to Grantor and all third parties, including, without
limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the
United States Code (the ”Bankruptcy Code”), without the necessity of
commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Deed of Trust, making
formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking
any other affirmative action.

 

Section 6.3                                   Bankruptcy
Provisions.  Without limitation
of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Grantor,
Trustee and Beneficiary agree that (a) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a
“security agreement” for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code, (b) the security interest created by this Deed of Trust extends to
property of Grantor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy
and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to
all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in
bankruptcy.

 

Section 6.4                                   No
Merger of Estates.  So long as
part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and
undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Trust Property shall not
merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of
such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any tenant or any third party by
purchase or otherwise.

 

27

 

ARTICLE 7

SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

Section 7.1                                   Security
Interest.  This Deed of Trust
constitutes a “security agreement” on personal property within the meaning of
the UCC and other applicable law and with respect to the Operational Property,
Fixtures, Ground Leases, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements,
Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards.  To this end, Grantor grants to
Beneficiary a security interest in the Operational Property, Fixtures, Ground
Leases, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds,
Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards and all other Trust Property which
is personal property, second in priority to the security interest created by
the Superior Deed of Trust only, to secure the payment of the Indebtedness and
performance of the Obligations and agrees that Beneficiary shall have all the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such
property.  Any notice of sale, disposition
or other intended action by Beneficiary with respect to the Operational
Property, Fixtures, Ground Leases, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property
Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards sent to
Grantor at least five (5) days prior to any action under the UCC shall
constitute reasonable notice to Grantor. 
THE TERM “TRUST PROPERTY” IS INTENDED TO EXCLUDE ALL ITEMS OF PERSONAL
PROPERTY IN WHICH BENEFICIARY HAS OBTAINED AND/OR PERFECTED A SECURITY INTEREST
UNDER SEPARATE INSTRUMENTS.

 

Section 7.2                                   Financing
Statements.  Grantor shall
provide authorization for Beneficiary to prepare and record, in form and
substance satisfactory to Beneficiary, financing statements (and shall make,
execute and/or otherwise deliver to Beneficiary, in form and substance
satisfactory to Beneficiary, such further documentation and assurances) as
Beneficiary may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create,
perfect and preserve Beneficiary’s security interest hereunder and Beneficiary
may cause such statements and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such
times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create, perfect
and preserve such security interest. 
Grantor’s state of organization is the State of Nevada.

 

Section 7.3                                   Fixture
Filing.  This Deed of Trust shall
also constitute a “fixture filing” for the purposes of the UCC against all of
the Trust Property which is or is to become fixtures.  Information concerning the security interest herein granted may
be obtained at the address of Debtor (Grantor) and Secured Party (Beneficiary)
as set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust.

 

Section 7.4                                   Applicable Provisions of Gaming Laws and
Liquor Laws.  The parties
acknowledge and agree that all rights, remedies, and powers provided in this
Deed of Trust relative to the Trust Property may be exercised only to the
extent

 

28

 

that the exercise thereof
does not violate any applicable mandatory provision of the applicable Gaming
Laws and Liquor Laws and all provisions of this Deed of Trust relative to the
Trust Property are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory
provisions of the applicable Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and to be limited
solely to the extent necessary to not render the provisions of this Deed of
Trust invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part.  Beneficiary will timely apply for and receive all required
approvals of the applicable Gaming Authorities and Liquor Authorities for the
assignment of interests in, sale or other disposition of gaming equipment
regulated by applicable Gaming Laws (including without limitation any such sale
or disposition of gaming equipment consisting of slot machines, gaming tables,
cards, dice, gaming chips, player tracking systems, and all other “gaming devices”
and “associated equipment” (as such terms or words of like import referring
thereto are defined in the applicable Gaming Laws) and for the sale of liquor
and other alcoholic beverages regulated by applicable Liquor Laws.

 

ARTICLE 8

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

Section 8.1                                   Certain
Rights.  With the approval of
Beneficiary, Trustee shall have the right to select, employ and consult with
counsel.  Trustee shall have the right
to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any
action taken or proposed to be taken by it hereunder, believed by it in good
faith to be genuine.  Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement for actual, reasonable expenses incurred by it in the
performance of its duties and to reasonable compensation for Trustee’s services
hereunder as shall be rendered.  Grantor
shall, from time to time, pay the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and
reimburse Trustee for, and indemnify, defend and save Trustee harmless against,
all liability and reasonable expenses which may be incurred by it in the
performance of its duties, including those arising from joint, concurrent, or
comparative negligence of Trustee; however, Grantor shall not be liable under
such indemnification to the extent such liability or expenses result solely
from Trustee’s or Beneficiary’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Grantor’s obligations under this Section 8.1
shall not be reduced or impaired by principles of comparative or contributory
negligence.

 

Section 8.2                                   Retention
of Money.  All moneys received
by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust
for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in
any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by law), and
Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by him
hereunder.

 

Section 8.3                                   Successor
Trustees.  If Trustee or any
successor Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the
execution of this trust, or Beneficiary shall, in Beneficiary’s sole and
absolute discretion, desire to appoint a

 

29

 

substitute Trustee,
Beneficiary shall have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees
and, if preferred, several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed
to all the estates, rights, powers and duties of Trustee.  Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Beneficiary and as so executed, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action.

 

Section 8.4                                   Perfection
of Appointment.  Should any
deed, conveyance or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any
successor Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such
successor Trustee such estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request
by such Trustee, all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made,
executed, acknowledged and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or
filed by Grantor.

 

Section 8.5                                   Trustee
Liability.  In no event or
circumstance shall Trustee or any substitute Trustee hereunder be personally
liable under or as a result of this Deed of Trust, either as a result of any
action by Trustee (or any substitute Trustee) in the exercise of the powers
hereby granted or otherwise.

under this Deed of Trust shall be given in accordance with Section 13.02
of the Indenture to the addresses of the parties hereto set forth in the
Preamble hereof.

 

Section 9.2                                   Covenants
Running with the Land.  All
Obligations contained in this Deed of Trust are intended by Grantor,
Beneficiary and Trustee to be, and shall be construed as, covenants running
with the Trust Property.  As used
herein, “Grantor” shall refer to the party named in the first paragraph of this
Deed of Trust and to any subsequent owner of all or any portion of the Trust
Property.  All Persons who may have or
acquire an interest in the Trust Property shall be deemed to have notice of,
and be bound by, the terms of the Indenture and the other Indebtedness
Documents; however, no such party shall be entitled to any rights thereunder
without the prior written consent of Beneficiary.

 

Section 9.3                                   Attorney-in-Fact.  Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints
Beneficiary and its successors and assigns, as its attorney-in-fact, which
agency is coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, (a) to
execute and/or record any notices of completion, cessation of labor or any
other notices that Beneficiary deems appropriate to protect Beneficiary’s
interest, if Grantor shall fail to do so within ten (10) days after
written request by Beneficiary, (b) upon the issuance of a deed pursuant to the
foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or the delivery of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, to

 

30

 

execute all instruments

Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards in favor
of the grantee of any such deed and as may be necessary or desirable for such
purpose, (c) to prepare, execute and file or record financing statements,
continuation statements, applications for registration and like papers
necessary to create, perfect or preserve Beneficiary’s security interests and
rights in or to any of the Trust Property, and (d) while any Event of Default
exists, to perform any obligation of Grantor hereunder, however:  (1) Beneficiary shall not under any
circumstances be obligated to perform any obligation of Grantor; (2) any sums
advanced by Beneficiary in such performance shall be added to and included in
the Indebtedness and shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate; (3)
Beneficiary as such attorney-in-fact shall only be accountable for such funds
as are actually received by Beneficiary; and (4) Beneficiary shall not be
liable to Grantor or any other person or entity for any failure to take any
action which it is empowered to take under this Section 9.3.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Beneficiary
shall be liable for its gross negligence, willful misconduct, and bad faith in
connection with exercising its rights hereunder.  Regardless of any provision of this Deed of Trust or the
Indebtedness Documents, Beneficiary shall not be considered to have accepted
any property other than cash or immediately available funds in satisfaction of
any obligation of Grantor to Beneficiary unless Beneficiary has given express
written notice of Beneficiary’s election of that remedy in accordance with NRS
104.9505, as it may be amended or recodified from time to time.

 

Section 9.4                                   Successors
and Assigns.  This Deed of Trust
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Beneficiary, the Lenders,
Trustee and Grantor and their respective successors and assigns.  Grantor shall not, without the prior written
consent of Beneficiary, assign any rights, duties or obligations hereunder.

 

Section 9.5                                   No
Waiver.  Any failure by
Beneficiary, the Lenders or Trustee to insist upon strict performance of any of
the terms, provisions or conditions of the Indebtedness Documents shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of the same, and Beneficiary, the Indenture Trustee, the
Holders or Trustee shall have the right at any time to insist upon strict
performance of all such terms, provisions and conditions.

 

Section 9.6                                   Indenture.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists
between this Deed of Trust and the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern.

 

Section 9.7                                   Release
or Reconveyance.  Upon payment
in full of the Indebtedness and performance in full of the Obligations,
Beneficiary, at Grantor’s expense, shall release the liens and security interests
created by this Deed of Trust or reconvey the Trust Property to Grantor.  Beneficiary shall also release Beneficiary’s
lien and security interest created by this Deed of Trust or reconvey the Trust
Property to

 

31

 

Grantor upon the
satisfaction of the release conditions contained in Section 3.5 or
elsewhere in the Indenture.

 

Section 9.8                                   Waiver
of Stay, Moratorium and Similar Rights.  Grantor agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so,
that it will not at any time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage
of any stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law now
or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement of
the provisions of this Deed of Trust or the Indebtedness secured hereby, or any
agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary or any rights or remedies of
Beneficiary or Trustee.

 

Section 9.9                                   Applicable
Law.  The provisions of this
Deed of Trust regarding the creation, perfection and enforcement of the liens
and security interests herein granted shall be governed by and construed under
the laws of the state in which the Trust Property is located.  All other provisions of this Deed of Trust
shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to
conflicts of law principles; provided, however, that whenever in this Deed of
Trust a right is given to Beneficiary, which right is affected by applicable
Gaming Laws or Liquor Laws or the enforcement of which is subject to applicable
Gaming Laws or Liquor Laws, the enforcement of any such right shall be subject
to applicable Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and approval, if so required, of the
applicable Gaming Authorities or Liquor Authorities.

 

Section 9.10                            Headings.  The Article, Section and
Subsection titles hereof are inserted for convenience of reference only
and shall in no way alter, modify or define, or be used in construing, the text
of such Articles, Sections or Subsections.

 

Section 9.11                            Entire
Agreement.  This Deed of Trust
and the other Indebtedness Documents embody the entire agreement and
understanding between Grantor and Beneficiary and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject
matter hereof and thereof.  Accordingly,
the Indebtedness Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior,
contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.  There are no unwritten oral agreements
between the parties.

 

Section 9.12                            Beneficiary as Agent; Successor Agents.

 

(a)                                  Agent
has been appointed to act as Agent hereunder by the Indenture Trustee.  Agent shall have the right hereunder to make
demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights,
and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation,
the release or substitution of the Trust Property) in accordance with the terms
of the Indenture, any related agency agreement between Agent and the Indenture
Trustee (collectively, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or replaced
from time to time, the “Agency Documents”) and this

 

32

 

Deed of Trust.  Grantor and all other persons shall be
entitled to rely on releases, waivers, consents, approvals, notifications and
other acts of Agent, without inquiry into the existence of required consents or
approvals of the Indenture Trustee therefor.

 

(b)                                 Beneficiary
shall at all times be the same Person that is Agent under the Agency
Documents.  Written notice of
resignation by Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute
notice of resignation as Agent under this Deed of Trust.  Removal of Agent pursuant to any provision
of the Agency Documents shall also constitute removal as Agent under this Deed
of Trust.  Appointment of a successor
Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute appointment of a
successor Agent under this Deed of Trust. 
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent
under the Agency Documents, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring or removed Agent as the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust, and the
retiring or removed Agent shall promptly (i) assign and transfer to such successor
Agent all of its right, title and interest in and to this Deed of Trust and the
Trust Property, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent such
assignments and amendments and take such other actions, as may be necessary or
appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Agent of the
liens and security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or
removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Deed of Trust.  After any retiring or
removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of
this Deed of Trust and the Agency Documents shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Deed of Trust while
it was the Agent hereunder.

 

(c)                                  Each
reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power
exercisable, exercised or action taken by the “Beneficiary” shall be deemed to
be a reference to or be deemed to have been so taken, as the case may be, by
Beneficiary, together with its successors and assigns, in its capacity as
Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture for the benefit of the Holders, all
as more fully set forth in the Indenture

 

Section 9.13                            No Amendments. 
This Deed of Trust shall not be in any way amended or modified unless
such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by Beneficiary.

 

ARTICLE 10

LOCAL
LAW PROVISIONS

 

Section 10.1                            Power of Sale.  Should default be made by Grantor in the
payment or performance of any Indebtedness or other Obligation or agreement
secured hereby and/or in the performance of any agreement herein, or should
Grantor otherwise

 

33

 

be in default hereunder,
Beneficiary may, subject to NRS 107.080, declare all sums secured hereby
immediately due by delivery to Trustee of a written notice of breach and
election to sell (which notice Trustee shall cause to be recorded and mailed as
required by law) and shall surrender to Trustee this Deed of Trust.

 

After three (3) months shall have elapsed following recordation of any
such notice of breach, Trustee shall sell the property subject hereto at such
time and at such place in the State of Nevada as Trustee, in its sole
discretion, shall deem best to accomplish the objects of these trusts, having
first given notice of such sale as then required by law.  In the conduct of any such sale Trustee may
act itself or through any auctioneer, agent or attorney.  The place of sale may be either in the
county in which the property to be sold, or any part thereof, is situated, or
at an office of the Trustee located in the State of Nevada.

 

Upon the request of Beneficiary or if required by law Trustee shall
postpone sale of all or any portion of said property or interest therein by
public announcement at the time fixed by said notice of sale, and shall
thereafter postpone said sale from time to time by public announcement at the
time previously appointed.

 

At the time of sale so fixed, Trustee shall sell the property so
advertised or any part thereof or interest therein either as a whole or in
separate parcels, as Beneficiary may determine in its sole and absolute
discretion, to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United
States, payable at the time of sale, and shall deliver to such purchaser a deed
or deeds or other appropriate instruments conveying the property so sold, but
without covenant or warranty, express or implied.  Beneficiary and Trustee may bid and purchase at such sale.  To the extent of the Indebtedness secured
hereby, Beneficiary need not bid for cash at any sale of all or any portion of
the Property pursuant hereto, but the amount of any successful bid by
Beneficiary shall be applied in reduction of said Indebtedness.  Trustor hereby agrees, if it is then still
in possession, to surrender, immediately and without demand, possession of said
property to any purchaser.

 

Trustee shall apply the proceeds of any such sale to the payment of
expenses of sale and all charges and expenses of Trustee and of these trusts,
including costs of evidence of title and Trustee’s fees in connection with
sale; all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued
interest at the default rate determined by the Indenture; all other sums then
secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally
entitled thereto.

 

Beneficiary, from time to time before Trustee’s sale, may rescind any
notice of breach and election to sell by executing, delivering and causing
Trustee to record a written notice of such rescission.  The exercise by Beneficiary of such right of
rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or default then existing
or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute and
deliver to

 

34

 

Trustee, as above
provided, other notices of breach and election to sell, nor otherwise affect
any term, covenant or condition hereof or under any obligation secured hereby,
or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of the parties thereunder.

 

Section 10.2                            Credit Bids.  At any foreclosure sale, any person,
including Grantor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may bid for and acquire the Trust
Property or any part thereof to the extent permitted by then applicable law.  Instead of paying cash for such property,
Beneficiary may settle for the purchase price by crediting the sales price of
the property against the obligations in the order provided by NRS 40.462.

 

Section 10.3                            Nevada Law.  Where not inconsistent with the above, the
following covenants, Nos. 1; 2 (full replacement value); 3; 4 (the rate or
rates at which interest is computed upon default of the Indebtedness); 5; 6; 7
(attorneys’ fees as provided herein); 8 and 9 of NRS 107.030 are
hereby adopted and made a part of this Deed of Trust.

 

ARTICLE 11

INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT

 

The lien of this Deed of Trust is subordinate to the lien of the
Superior Deed of Trust to the extent set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement
and this Deed of Trust is subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

ARTICLE 3

WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS

 

Grantor warrants,
represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows:

 

Section 3.1                                   Title
to Trust Property and Lien of this Instrument.  Grantor (i) has good and indefeasible title
to the real property described in Exhibit A attached hereto, in fee
simple, free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the Permitted
Liens (ii) has good and indefeasible title or holds valid leasehold interests
in the remainder of the Trust Property, in each case free and clear of any
liens, claims or interests, except the Permitted Liens and (iii) has full power
and lawful authority to encumber the Trust Property in the manner and form set
forth in this Deed of Trust.  This Deed
of Trust creates valid, enforceable liens and security interests against the Trust
Property, second in priority to the lien of the Superior Deed of Trust only.

 

Section 3.2                                   Priority.  Grantor shall preserve and protect the
second lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust (and, following
satisfaction and discharge of the Superior Deed of Trust, the first lien and
security interest status of this Deed of Trust).  If Grantor has knowledge of any lien or security interest, other
than the Permitted Liens, that is asserted against the Trust Property, Grantor
shall promptly, and at its expense, (a) give Beneficiary a detailed written
notice of such lien or security interest (including origin, amount and other
terms), and (b) pay the underlying claim in full or take such other action so
as to cause it to be released or contest the same and provide a bond or other
security satisfactory to Beneficiary, and act in compliance with any other
requirements of the Indenture.

 

Section 3.3                                   Payment
and Performance.  Grantor shall
pay or cause Parent or the other Guarantors to pay the Indebtedness when due
under the Notes and the other Indebtedness Documents and shall perform or cause
Parent or the other Guarantors to perform the Obligations in full when they are
required to be performed.

 

Section 3.4                                   Replacement
of Fixtures.  Grantor shall not,
without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, permit any of the Fixtures to
be removed at any time from the Land or Improvements, unless the removed item
is removed temporarily for

 

9

 

maintenance and repair
or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens
and security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Indebtedness
Documents, and free and clear of any other lien or security interest except
such as may be permitted under the Indenture or first approved in writing by
Beneficiary.

 

Section 3.5                                   Inspection.  Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and its
agents, representatives and employees to inspect the Trust Property and all
books and records of Grantor located thereon, and to conduct such environmental
and engineering studies as Beneficiary may require.  Provided that no Event of Default exists, all such testing and
investigation shall be conducted at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior
notice to Grantor.  Beneficiary shall
restore the Trust Property to at least as good condition as it was in
immediately prior to such testing and investigation.

 

Section 3.6                                   Other
Covenants.  All of the covenants
in the Indenture are incorporated herein by reference and, together with
covenants in this Article 3, shall, to the extent applicable, be
covenants running with the land.

 

Section 3.7                                   Condemnation Awards and Insurance Proceeds.

 

(a)                                  Condemnation
Awards.  Grantor, immediately upon
obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation
of the Trust Property or any portion thereof, will notify Beneficiary of the
pendency of such proceedings.  Except as
set forth in the Indenture, Beneficiary may participate in any such proceedings
and Grantor from time to time will deliver to Beneficiary all instruments
requested by it to permit such participation. 
Grantor assigns all awards and compensation to which it is entitled for
any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu thereof, to
Beneficiary and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Indenture. Grantor hereby waives all rights to such awards and
compensation described in the foregoing sentence.  Grantor, upon request by Beneficiary, shall make, execute and
deliver any and all instruments requested for the purpose of confirming the
assignment of the aforesaid awards and compensation to Beneficiary free and
clear of any liens, charges or encumbrances of any kind or nature
whatsoever.  Grantor specifically,
unconditionally and irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner granted
under applicable law, including NRS 37.115, as amended or recodified from time
to time, which provide for an allocation of condemnation proceeds between a
property owner and a lienholder, and any other law or successor statute of
similar import.

 

(b)                                 Insurance
Proceeds.  Without limitation to the
requirements of Section 4.23 of the Indenture, Grantor shall maintain such
insurance coverage as is customarily carried by owners and operators of first
class casino and hotel complexes in Laughlin, Nevada and in no event less than
that required under the Superior Deed of

 

10

 

Trust.  Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds
of any insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Trust
Property.  Except as set forth in the
Indenture, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds
and authorizes and directs the issuer of each of such insurance policies to
make payment for all such losses directly to Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor
and Beneficiary jointly.  In the event
that the issuer of such insurance policy fails to disburse directly or solely
to Beneficiary but disburses instead either solely to Grantor or to Grantor and
Beneficiary, jointly, Grantor shall immediately endorse and transfer such
proceeds to Beneficiary.  Upon Grantor’s
failure to do so, Beneficiary may execute such endorsements or transfers from
and in the name of Grantor, and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary
as Grantor’s agent and attorney-in-fact so to do.

 

(c)                                  Beneficiary
acknowledges that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.7, Grantor has granted certain rights in and to condemnation
awards and insurance proceeds pursuant to the Superior Deed of Trust and,
subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of this
Section 3.7 are entered into subject to such rights.

 

Section 3.8                                   Costs
of Defending and Upholding the Lien. 
If any action or proceeding is commenced to which action or proceeding
Trustee or Beneficiary is made a party or in which it becomes necessary for
Trustee or Beneficiary to defend or uphold the lien of this Deed of Trust,
including any extensions, renewals, amendments or modifications thereof,
Grantor shall, on demand, reimburse Trustee and Beneficiary for all expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable
appellate attorneys’ fees) incurred by Trustee or Beneficiary in any such
action or proceeding and all such expenses shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.  In any action or proceeding to
foreclose this Deed of Trust or to recover or collect the Indebtedness, the
provisions of law relating to the recovering of costs, disbursements and
allowances shall prevail unaffected by this covenant.

 

Section 3.9                                   TRANSFER OF THE SECURED PROPERTY.  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED PURSUANT TO
THE TERMS OF THE INDENTURE, GRANTOR SHALL NOT SELL, ASSIGN, TRANSFER, PLEDGE,
ENCUMBER, CREATE A SECURITY INTEREST IN, LEASE, OR OTHERWISE HYPOTHECATE,
ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE TRUST PROPERTY WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF
BENEFICIARY.  THE CONSENT BY BENEFICIARY
TO ANY SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION OF A SECURITY
INTEREST IN, LEASE, OR OTHER HYPOTHECATION OF, ANY PORTION OF THE TRUST
PROPERTY SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A NOVATION OR A CONSENT TO ANY
FURTHER SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION OF A SECURITY
INTEREST IN, LEASE, OR OTHER HYPOTHECATION, OR TO WAIVE THE RIGHT OF
BENEFICIARY, INDENTURE

 

11

 

TRUSTEE AND/OR HOLDERS,
AT THEIR OPTION, TO DECLARE THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED HEREBY IMMEDIATELY DUE AND
PAYABLE, WITHOUT NOTICE TO GRANTOR OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, UPON ANY SUCH
SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, CREATION OF A SECURITY INTEREST,
LEASE, OR OTHER HYPOTHECATION TO WHICH BENEFICIARY SHALL NOT HAVE CONSENTED.

 

Section 3.10                            Security Deposits.  To the extent required by law, or after an
Event of Default has occurred and during its continuance, if required by
Beneficiary, all security deposits of tenants of the Trust Property shall be
treated as trust funds not to be commingled with any other funds of
Grantor.  Within twenty (20) days after
request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall furnish satisfactory evidence of
compliance with this Section 3.10, as necessary, together with a
statement of all security deposits deposited by the tenants and copies of all
Leases not theretofore delivered to Beneficiary, as requested thereby,
certified by Grantor.

 

Section 3.11                            Lease Representations, Warranties and
Covenants.  Grantor
hereby represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

 

(a)                                  each
Lease is by its terms subordinate to this Deed of Trust and the tenant
thereunder has agreed to attorn to Beneficiary;

 

(b)                                 Grantor

to be done anything to materially impair the value of the Leases as security
for the Indebtedness and the Obligations; (ii) promptly send copies to
Beneficiary of all notices of default which Grantor shall send or receive
thereunder; (iii) enforce all the material terms, covenants and conditions
contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed

provided, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary; and

 

(d)                                 Grantor
shall not, except to the extent Grantor has received the prior written consent

material respect; (B) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any

 

12

 

Lease not in accordance
with its terms; and (C) cancel or terminate any Lease or accept a
surrender thereof, unless such tenant is in default thereunder and a new Lease
has been entered into on substantially the same terms or more favorable terms
as the canceled Lease.

 

Section 3.12                            Additional
Lease Covenants.

 

(a)                                  Grantor
shall give Beneficiary and Trustee not less than thirty (30) days prior written
notice of the date on which Grantor shall apply to any court or other
governmental authority for authority and permission to reject any of the Leases
in the event that there shall be filed by or against Grantor any petition,
action or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or under any other similar
federal or state law now or hereafter in effect and if Grantor determines to
reject any of the Leases.  Beneficiary
and Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve upon Grantor
within such thirty (30) day period a notice stating that (i) Beneficiary
or Trustee demands that Grantor assume and assign any of the Leases to
Beneficiary or Trustee subject to and in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code
and (ii) Beneficiary covenants to cure or provide reasonably adequate
assurance thereof with respect to all defaults reasonably susceptible of being

reject any of the Leases and shall comply with the demand provided for in
clause (i) above within fifteen (15) days after the notice shall have been
given by Beneficiary and Trustee.

 

(b)                                 During
the continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the
right, but not the obligation, (i) to perform and comply with all obligations
of Grantor under the Leases without relying on any grace period provided
therein, (ii) to do and take, without any obligation to do so, such action as
Beneficiary or Trustee deems necessary or desirable to prevent or cure any

act, deed, matter or thing whatsoever that Grantor may do in order to cure a
default under the applicable Leases and (iii) to enter in and upon the Land or
any part thereof to such extent and as often as Beneficiary or Trustee  deems
necessary or desirable in order to prevent or cure any default of Grantor under
the Leases.  Grantor shall on demand,
reimburse Beneficiary for all advances made and expenses incurred by
Beneficiary in exercising the foregoing rights (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), together with interest thereon
at three percentage points above the “prime rate” announced by Wells Fargo
Bank, N.A. at its principal office in San Francisco from time to time (the “Applicable
Rate”) from the date that an advance is made or expense is incurred,
to and including the date the same is paid and such monies so expended by
Beneficiary with interest thereon shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.  Grantor shall, within five (5) days after
written request is made therefor by Beneficiary or Trustee, execute and deliver
to Beneficiary or to any party designated by Beneficiary or Trustee, such
further instruments, agreements,

the interest, rights or powers of Beneficiary pursuant to this paragraph or as
may otherwise be required by Beneficiary  or Trustee.

 

(c)                                  During
the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event of any arbitration under
or pursuant to the Leases in which Beneficiary elects to participate, Grantor
hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary and Trustee as its true and lawful
attorneys-in-fact (which appointment shall be deemed coupled with an interest)
to exercise, during the continuance of an Event of Default, all right, title
and interest of Grantor in connection with such arbitration, including, without
limitation, the right to appoint arbitrators and to conduct arbitration
proceedings on behalf of Grantor and Beneficiary.  All costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary and Trustee in
connection with such arbitration and the settlement thereof shall be borne
solely by Grantor, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and
disbursements.  Nothing contained in
this paragraph shall obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to participate in any such
arbitration.

 

Section 3.13                            Estoppel Certificates.  Grantor shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain and deliver to Beneficiary within twenty (20) days after
written demand by Beneficiary, an estoppel certificate from the applicable
lessee under the Leases setting forth (i) the name of the lessee and the
lessor thereunder, (ii) that the applicable Lease is in full force and
effect and has not been modified or, if it has been modified, the date of each
modification (together with copies of each such modification), (iii) the
basic rent payable under the applicable Lease, (iv) the date to which all
rental charges have been paid by the lessee under the applicable Lease, (v) whether

lessee under the applicable Lease and, if there are, setting forth the nature
thereof in reasonable detail, and (vii) if the lessee under the applicable
Lease shall be in default, the default.

 

Section 3.14                            FF&E
Financing Arrangements.  Grantor
shall comply with the terms of all FF&E Financing Arrangements.  If Grantor has acquired or hereafter
acquires Operational Property or Fixtures subject to any FF&E Financing
Arrangement, or becomes lessee under a lease for any of the same, the Lien of
this Deed of Trust on such acquired or leased assets shall be subordinate to
the Lien of such FF&E Financing Arrangement and Beneficiary, at Grantor’s
cost, shall execute and deliver to Grantor such documents as Grantor may
reasonably request evidencing such subordination.

 

Section 3.15                            Maintenance
of Premises.  Grantor shall
maintain and keep the Premises in such good repair, working order and condition

and keep the

Casino Hotel supplied
with Tangible Personal Property, all in a manner consistent with the standards
of other first class casino and hotel complexes in Laughlin, Nevada.

carried out in conformity with the Indebtedness Documents, Legal Requirements
and insurance requirements in a good and workmanlike manner and prosecuted with
reasonable dispatch subject to force majeure; (b) shall be undertaken only with
appropriate workers compensation insurance covering workers engaged in such alterations
and appropriate commercial general liability insurance covering all hazards
resulting from such alterations; and (c) affecting the structure of any of the

less than ten (10) years’ experience in the design and construction of first
class casino and hotel complexes in Laughlin, Nevada, (ii) shall be notified to
Beneficiary prior to the commencement thereof and, upon Beneficiary’s request,
Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary copies of all drawings, plans,
specifications and cost estimates therefor prepared and approved in writing by
said architect and accompanied by a certificate of such architect stating that
such drawings, plans and specifications are in compliance with all Legal
Requirements and insurance requirements, and (iii) shall not be commenced until
Grantor has furnished to Beneficiary, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense, a
surety bond or bonds, covering performance, labor and material payments with
respect to the work, naming Beneficiary as obligee (or as co-obligee with the
beneficiary under the Superior Deed of Trust and Grantor), issued by a
responsible surety company, authorized to do business in the State of Nevada,
in a form generally and customarily used by such surety in an amount equal to
the estimated cost of construction of the work, guaranteeing the performance
and completion of such construction, substantially in conformity with the plans
and specifications and within a reasonable time subject to force majeure free
and clear of all Liens, claims and liabilities for the cost of such alterations
(if such surety bond is unobtainable, Grantor shall provide equivalent security
in the form of cash, letter of credit or other guarantee).  No alterations of any kind shall be made
which shall change the primary use of the Casino Hotel from its use as a gaming
and hotel facility.

and to the extent permitted by law, enter the Trust Property, either personally
or by its agents, nominees or attorneys, and take exclusive

 

16

 

possession thereof and
thereupon, Beneficiary may (i) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain,
repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Premises and
conduct business thereat; (ii) complete any construction on the Premises in
such manner and form as Beneficiary deems advisable in the reasonable exercise
of its judgment; (iii) exercise all rights and power of Grantor with respect to
the Premises, whether in the name of Grantor, or otherwise, including, without
limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify leases, obtain and
evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive all earnings, revenues,
rents, issues, profits and other income of the Premises and every part thereof,
which rights shall not be in limitation of Beneficiary’s rights under any
assignment of rents and leases securing the Indebtedness; and (iv)  apply
the receipts from the Premises to the payment of the Indebtedness, after
deducting therefrom all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in
connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the
taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges in connection with the Trust
Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of
Beneficiary, its counsel, agents and employees.

 

(d)                                 Hold,
lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Trust Property upon such
terms and conditions as Beneficiary may deem reasonable under the circumstances
(making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other
actions, from time to time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and
apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Trustee in connection therewith
in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7 hereof.

 

(e)                                  Require
Grantor to assemble any collateral under the UCC and make it available to
Beneficiary, at Grantor’s sole risk and expense, at a place or places to be
designated by Beneficiary, in its sole discretion.

 

(f)                                    Institute
proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, either by
judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Trust Property may be
sold for cash or credit in accordance with applicable law in one or more
parcels as Beneficiary may determine. 
Except as otherwise required by applicable law, with respect to any
notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that ten (10) days’
prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.  At any such sale by virtue of any judicial
proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be
completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest,
claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in
equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both
at law and in equity against Grantor, and against all other Persons claiming or
to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor.  Beneficiary, the Indenture Trustee or any of
the Holders may be a purchaser at such sale. 
If Beneficiary is the highest bidder, Beneficiary may credit the portion
of the purchase price that would be distributed to Beneficiary against the

 

17

 

Indebtedness in lieu of
paying cash.  In the event this Deed of
Trust is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement and valuation of the Trust
Property is waived. In the event of any sale made under or by virtue of this Article 5
(whether made by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of
foreclosure and sale) the entire Indebtedness, if not previously due and
payable, immediately thereupon shall become due and payable. The failure to
make any such tenants of the Premises party to any such foreclosure proceedings
and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted to be by Grantor, a
defense to any proceedings instituted by Beneficiary to collect the sums
secured hereby.

 

(g)                                 With
or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures
provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure
of this Deed of Trust for the portion of the Indebtedness then due and payable
(if Beneficiary shall have elected not to declare the entire Indebtedness to be
immediately due and owing), subject to the continuing lien of this Deed of
Trust for the balance of the Indebtedness not then due; or (1) as and to the
extent permitted by law, sell for cash or upon credit the Trust Property or any
part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of
Grantor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales,
as an entity or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such
notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a
sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Trust Property, this
Deed of Trust shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Trust
Property; or (2) institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the
specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein
or in any Indebtedness Document; or (3) to the extent permitted by applicable
law, recover judgment on the Indenture either before, during or after any
proceedings for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust.

 

(h)                                 Make
application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such
court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Grantor or regard to
the adequacy of the Trust Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the
appointment of a receiver of the Trust Property, and Grantor irrevocably
consents to such appointment.  Any such
receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar
cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the
Trust Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and shall apply
such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7
hereof.  Beneficiary may request, in connection
with any foreclosure proceeding hereunder, that the Nevada Gaming Commission
petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a supervisor
to conduct the normal gaming activities on the Premises following such
foreclosure proceeding.

 

(i)                                     Exercise
all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Indebtedness
Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity.

 

18

 

Section 5.2                                   Separate
Sales.  The Trust Property may
be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee in its
sole discretion may elect; the right of sale arising out of any Event of
Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.

 

Section 5.3                                   Remedies
Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.  Beneficiary and Trustee shall have all rights, remedies and
recourses granted in the Indebtedness Documents and available at law or equity
(including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be cumulated and concurrent, (b) may
be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Grantor or others
obligated under the Indebtedness Documents, or against the Trust Property, or
against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Beneficiary or
Trustee, as the case may be, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy
or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive.  No action by Beneficiary or Trustee in the
enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Indebtedness
Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of
Default.

 

Section 5.4                                   Release
of and Resort to Collateral. 
Beneficiary may release, regardless of consideration and without the
necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on
the Trust Property, any part of the Trust Property without, as to the
remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien
or security interest created in or evidenced by the Indebtedness Documents or
their status as a lien and security interest in and to the Trust Property
second in priority to the Superior Deed of Trust only.  For payment of the Indebtedness, Beneficiary
may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Beneficiary may
elect.

 

Section 5.5                                   Waiver
of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets.  To the fullest extent permitted by law,
Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all
benefit that might accrue to Grantor by virtue of any present or future statute
of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Trust Property from
attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution,
exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,
(b) all notices of any Event of Default or of any election by Trustee or
Beneficiary to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse
provided for under the Indebtedness Documents, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets, a sale in inverse order of alienation or to require sale
of assets in a particular order, including rights provided by NRS 100.040 and
100.050, as such sections may be amended or recodified from time to time.  Each successor and assign of Grantor,
including any holder of a lien or security interest subordinate to this Deed of
Trust, by acceptance of its interest or lien or security interest, agrees that
it shall be bound by the above waiver, as if it had given the waiver itself.

 

19

 

Section 5.6                                   Discontinuance
of Proceedings.  If Beneficiary
or Trustee shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse
permitted under the Indebtedness Documents and shall thereafter elect to
discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case
may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event,
Grantor, Beneficiary and Trustee shall be restored to their former positions
with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Indebtedness Documents,
the Trust Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and
powers of Beneficiary and Trustee shall continue as if the right, remedy or
recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment
shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of
Beneficiary or Trustee thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse
under the Indebtedness Documents for such Event of Default.

 

Section 5.7                                   Application
of Proceeds.  The proceeds of
any sale made under or by virtue of this Article 5, together with
any Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management,
operation or other use of the Trust Property, shall be applied by Beneficiary
or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless
otherwise required by applicable law:

 

(a)                                  to
the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Trust
Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including, without limitation (1) trustee’s and receiver’s fees and
expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s
certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and
expenses, and (4) costs of advertisement;

 

(b)                                 to
the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations in such
manner and order of preference as set forth in the Indenture; and

 

(c)                                  the
balance, if any, to the payment of the Persons legally entitled thereto.

 

Section 5.8                                   Occupancy
After Foreclosure.  Except as
otherwise required by applicable law, any sale of the Trust Property or any
part thereof in accordance with Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f)
hereof will divest all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to the
property sold.  Subject to applicable
law, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of
the property purchased.  If Grantor
retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such
sale, Grantor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and
will, if Grantor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to
eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.

 

20

 

Section 5.9                                   Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs
of Enforcement.

 

(a)                                  If
any Event of Default exists, Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of
Grantor.  All sums advanced and expenses
incurred at any time by Beneficiary under this Section 5.9, or
otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any of the other Indebtedness Documents
or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced
or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at
the Applicable Rate, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall
be secured by this Deed of Trust.

 

(b)                                 Grantor
shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and
all costs and expenses related to legal work, research and litigation) of or
incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the
other Indebtedness Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of
the Indebtedness or any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other
Indebtedness Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or
asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof, by litigation
or otherwise.

 

Section 5.10                            No
Mortgagee in Possession. 
Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5,
the assignment of the rents and leases under Article 6, the security
interests under Article 7, nor any other remedies afforded to
Beneficiary under the Indebtedness Documents, at law or in equity shall cause
Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in
possession of the Trust Property, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to lease
the Trust Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.

 

Section 5.11                            WAIVER OF GRANTOR’S RIGHTS.  BY EXECUTION
OF THIS DEED OF TRUST, GRANTOR EXPRESSLY: 
(A) ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY, INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND/OR
HOLDERS TO ACCELERATE THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE INDENTURE OR OTHER
INDEBTEDNESS DOCUMENTS UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT;  (B) TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS WHICH GRANTOR MAY HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF THE
UNITED STATES, THE VARIOUS PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTIONS FOR THE SEVERAL
STATES, OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW, TO NOTICE AND TO JUDICIAL
HEARING PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY BENEFICIARY OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY HEREIN
PROVIDED TO BENEFICIARY; 
(C) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT GRANTOR HAS READ THIS DEED OF TRUST AND ITS
PROVISIONS HAVE

 

21

 

BEEN EXPLAINED FULLY TO GRANTOR AND GRANTOR
HAS CONSULTED WITH LEGAL COUNSEL OF GRANTOR’S CHOICE PRIOR TO EXECUTING THIS
DEED OF TRUST;  AND
(D) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL WAIVERS OF THE AFORESAID RIGHTS OF GRANTOR HAVE
BEEN MADE KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND WILLINGLY BY GRANTOR AS PART OF A BARGAINED
FOR LOAN TRANSACTION.

 

ARTICLE 6

ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES

 

Section 6.1                                   Assignment.  In furtherance of and in addition to the
assignment made by Grantor in Section 2.1 of this Deed of Trust,
Grantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and
conveys to Trustee (for the benefit of Beneficiary) and to Beneficiary all of
its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or
hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents.  This assignment is an absolute assignment
and not an assignment for additional security only.  So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and to the extent not prohibited by the Indenture, Grantor shall
have a revocable license from Trustee and Beneficiary to exercise all rights
extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and
collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and
performance of the Obligations and to otherwise use the same.  The foregoing license is granted subject to
the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing.  Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings
have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the
Obligations or solvency of Grantor, the license herein granted shall
automatically expire and terminate, without notice by Trustee or Beneficiary
(any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Grantor).

 

Section 6.2                                   Perfection
Upon Recordation.  Grantor
acknowledges that Beneficiary and Trustee have taken all actions necessary to
obtain, and that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust Beneficiary and Trustee
shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully
perfected, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all
security for such Leases, subject only to the assignment of such Rents pursuant
to the Superior Deed of Trust and/or any separate assignment of Rents executed
in conjunction therewith.  Grantor
acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust, Trustee’s
and Beneficiary’s interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected,
“choate” and enforced as to Grantor and all third parties, including, without
limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of
the United States Code (the ”Bankruptcy Code”), without the necessity of
commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Deed of Trust, making
formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking
any other affirmative action.

 

22

 

Section 6.3                                   Bankruptcy
Provisions.  Without limitation
of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Grantor,
Trustee and Beneficiary agree that (a) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a
“security agreement” for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code, (b) the security interest created by this Deed of Trust extends to
property of Grantor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy
and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to
all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy.

 

Section 6.4                                   No
Merger of Estates.  So long as
part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and
undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Trust Property shall not
merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of
such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any tenant or any third party by
purchase or otherwise.

 

ARTICLE 7

SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

Section 7.1                                   Security
Interest.  This Deed of Trust
constitutes a “security agreement” on personal property within the meaning of
the UCC and other applicable law and with respect to the Operational Property,
Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds,
Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards. 
To this end, Grantor grants to Beneficiary a security interest in
the Operational Property, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property
Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards and all
other Trust Property which is personal property, second in priority to the
security interest created by the Superior Deed of Trust only, to secure the
payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations and agrees that
Beneficiary shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the
UCC with respect to such property.  Any
notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Beneficiary with
respect to the Operational Property, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts,
Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards
sent to Grantor at least five (5) days prior to any action under the UCC shall
constitute reasonable notice to Grantor. 
THE TERM “TRUST PROPERTY” IS INTENDED TO EXCLUDE ALL ITEMS OF PERSONAL
PROPERTY IN WHICH BENEFICIARY HAS OBTAINED AND/OR PERFECTED A SECURITY INTEREST
UNDER SEPARATE INSTRUMENTS.

 

Section 7.2                                   Financing
Statements.  Grantor shall
provide authorization for Beneficiary to prepare and record, in form and
substance satisfactory to Beneficiary, financing statements (and shall make,
execute and/or otherwise deliver to Beneficiary, in form and substance
satisfactory to Beneficiary, such further documentation and assurances) as
Beneficiary may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create,
perfect and preserve Beneficiary’s security interest

 

23

 

hereunder and Beneficiary
may cause such statements and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such
times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create, perfect
and preserve such security interest. 
Grantor’s state of organization is the State of Nevada.

 

Section 7.3                                   Fixture
Filing.  This Deed of Trust
shall also constitute a “fixture filing” for the purposes of the UCC against
all of the Trust Property which is or is to become fixtures.  Information concerning the security interest
herein granted may be obtained at the address of Debtor (Grantor) and Secured
Party (Beneficiary) as set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust.

 

Section 7.4                                   Applicable Provisions of Gaming Laws and
Liquor Laws.  The parties
acknowledge and agree that all rights, remedies, and powers provided in this
Deed of Trust relative to the Trust Property may be exercised only to the
extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory
provision of the applicable Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and all provisions of
this Deed of Trust relative to the Trust Property are intended to be subject to
all applicable mandatory provisions of the applicable Gaming Laws and Liquor
Laws and to be limited solely to the extent necessary to not render the
provisions of this Deed of Trust invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part.  Beneficiary will timely apply for
and receive all required approvals of the applicable Gaming Authorities and
Liquor Authorities for the assignment of interests in, sale or other
disposition of gaming equipment regulated by applicable Gaming Laws (including
without limitation any such sale or disposition of gaming equipment consisting
of slot machines, gaming tables, cards, dice, gaming chips, player tracking
systems, and all other “gaming devices” and “associated equipment” (as such
terms or words of like import referring thereto are defined in the applicable
Gaming Laws) and for the sale of liquor and other alcoholic beverages regulated
by applicable Liquor Laws.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

Section 8.1                                   Certain
Rights.  With the approval of
Beneficiary, Trustee shall have the right to select, employ and consult with
counsel.  Trustee shall have the right
to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any
action taken or proposed to be taken by it hereunder, believed by it in good
faith to be genuine.  Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement for actual, reasonable expenses incurred by it in the
performance of its duties and to reasonable compensation for Trustee’s services
hereunder as shall be rendered.  Grantor
shall, from time to time, pay the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse
Trustee for, and indemnify, defend and save Trustee harmless against, all
liability and reasonable expenses which may be incurred by it in the
performance of its duties, including those arising from joint, concurrent, or
comparative negligence of Trustee; however, Grantor shall not be liable

 

24

 

under such
indemnification to the extent such liability or expenses result solely from
Trustee’s or Beneficiary’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Grantor’s obligations under this Section 8.1
shall not be reduced or impaired by principles of comparative or contributory
negligence.

 

Section 8.2                                   Retention
of Money.  All moneys received
by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust

any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by law), and
Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by him
hereunder.

 

Section 8.3                                   Successor
Trustees.  If Trustee or any
successor Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the
execution of this trust, or Beneficiary shall, in Beneficiary’s sole and
absolute discretion, desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall
have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred,
several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates,
rights, powers and duties of Trustee. 
Such appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of Beneficiary
and as so executed, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be
executed with authority, valid and sufficient, without further proof of any
action.

 

Section 8.4                                   Perfection
of Appointment.  Should any
deed, conveyance or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any
successor Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such
successor Trustee such estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request
by such Trustee, all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed,
acknowledged and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by
Grantor.

 

Section 8.5                                   Trustee
Liability.  In no event or
circumstance shall Trustee or any substitute Trustee hereunder be personally

hereunder, however:  (1) Beneficiary
shall not under any circumstances be obligated to perform any obligation of
Grantor; (2) any sums advanced by Beneficiary in such performance shall be

Applicable Rate; (3) Beneficiary as such attorney-in-fact shall only be
accountable for such funds as are actually received by Beneficiary; and (4)
Beneficiary shall not be liable to Grantor or any other person or entity for
any failure to take any action which it is empowered to take under this Section 9.3.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Beneficiary

connection with exercising its rights hereunder.  Regardless of any provision of this Deed of Trust or the
Indebtedness Documents, Beneficiary shall not be considered to have accepted
any property other than cash or immediately available funds in satisfaction of
any obligation of Grantor to Beneficiary unless Beneficiary has given express
written notice of Beneficiary’s election of that remedy in accordance with NRS
104.9505, as it may be amended or recodified from time to time.

Waiver.  Any failure by
Beneficiary, the Lenders or Trustee to insist upon strict performance of any of
the terms, provisions or conditions of

 

26

 

the Indebtedness
Documents shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the same, and Beneficiary, the
Indenture Trustee, the Holders or Trustee shall have the right at any time to
insist upon strict performance of all such terms, provisions and conditions.

 

Section 9.6                                   Indenture.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists
between this Deed of Trust and the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern.

 

Section 9.7                                   Release
or Reconveyance.  Upon payment
in full of the Indebtedness and performance in full of the Obligations,
Beneficiary, at Grantor’s expense, shall release the liens and security
interests created by this Deed of Trust or reconvey the Trust Property to
Grantor.  Beneficiary shall also release
Beneficiary’s lien and security interest created by this Deed of Trust or

conditions contained in Section 3.5 or elsewhere in the Indenture.

 

Section 9.8                                   Waiver
of Stay, Moratorium and Similar Rights.  Grantor agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so,
that it will not at any time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage
of any stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law now
or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement of
the provisions of this Deed of Trust or the Indebtedness secured hereby, or any
agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary or any rights or remedies of
Beneficiary or Trustee.

 

Section 9.9                                   Applicable
Law.  The provisions of this
Deed of Trust regarding the creation, perfection and enforcement of the liens
and security interests herein granted shall be governed by and construed under
the laws of the state in which the Trust Property is located.  All other provisions of this Deed of Trust
shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to
conflicts of law principles; provided, however, that whenever in this Deed of
Trust a right is given to Beneficiary, which right is affected by applicable
Gaming Laws or Liquor Laws or the enforcement of which is subject to applicable
Gaming Laws or Liquor Laws, the enforcement of any such right shall be subject
to applicable Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and approval, if so required, of the
applicable Gaming Authorities or Liquor Authorities.

or subsequent oral

Section 9.12                            Beneficiary as Agent; Successor Agents.

 

(a)                                  Agent
has been appointed to act as Agent hereunder by the Indenture Trustee.  Agent shall have the right hereunder to make
demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights,
and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation,
the release or substitution of the Trust Property) in accordance with the terms
of the Indenture, any related agency agreement between Agent and the Indenture
Trustee (collectively, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or
replaced from time to time, the “Agency Documents”) and this Deed of
Trust.  Grantor and all other persons
shall be entitled to rely on releases, waivers, consents, approvals,
notifications and other acts of Agent, without inquiry into the existence of
required consents or approvals of the Indenture Trustee therefor.

 

(b)                                 Beneficiary
shall at all times be the same Person that is Agent under the Agency
Documents.  Written notice of
resignation by Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute
notice of resignation as Agent under this Deed of Trust.  Removal of Agent pursuant to any provision
of the Agency Documents shall also constitute removal as Agent under this Deed
of Trust.  Appointment of a successor
Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute appointment of a
successor Agent under this Deed of Trust. 
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent
under the Agency Documents, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring or removed Agent as the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust, and the
retiring or removed Agent shall promptly (i) assign and transfer to such
successor Agent all of its right, title and interest in and to this Deed of
Trust and the Trust Property, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor
Agent such assignments and amendments and take such other actions, as may be
necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor
Agent of the liens and security interests created hereunder, whereupon such
retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
under this Deed of Trust.  After any
retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the
provisions of this Deed of Trust and the Agency Documents shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Deed of
Trust while it was the Agent hereunder.

 

(c)                                  Each
reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power
exercisable, exercised or action taken by the “Beneficiary” shall be deemed to
be a reference to or be deemed to have been so taken, as the case may be, by
Beneficiary, together with its successors and assigns, in its capacity as
Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture for the benefit of the Holders, all
as more fully set forth in the Indenture

 

28

 

Section 9.13                            No Amendments. 
This Deed of Trust shall not be in any way amended or modified unless
such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by Beneficiary.

 

ARTICLE 10

LOCAL LAW PROVISIONS

 

Section 10.1                            Power of Sale.  Should default be made by Grantor in the
payment or performance of any Indebtedness or other Obligation or agreement
secured hereby and/or in the performance of any agreement herein, or should
Grantor otherwise be in default hereunder, Beneficiary may, subject to
NRS 107.080, declare all sums secured hereby immediately due by delivery
to Trustee of a written notice of breach and election to sell (which notice
Trustee shall cause to be recorded and mailed as required by law) and shall surrender
to Trustee this Deed of Trust.

 

After three (3) months shall have elapsed following recordation of any
such notice of breach, Trustee shall sell the property subject hereto at such
time and at such place in the State of Nevada as Trustee, in its sole
discretion, shall deem best to accomplish the objects of these trusts, having
first given notice of such sale as then required by law.  In the conduct of any such sale Trustee may
act itself or through any auctioneer, agent or attorney.  The place of sale may be either in the
county in which the property to be sold, or any part thereof, is situated, or
at an office of the Trustee located in the State of Nevada.

 

Upon the request of Beneficiary or if required by law Trustee shall
postpone sale of all or any portion of said property or interest therein by
public announcement at the time fixed by said notice of sale, and shall
thereafter postpone said sale from time to time by public announcement at the
time previously appointed.

 

At the time of sale so fixed, Trustee shall sell the property so
advertised or any part thereof or interest therein either as a whole or in
separate parcels, as Beneficiary may determine in its sole and absolute
discretion, to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United
States, payable at the time of sale, and shall deliver to such purchaser a deed
or deeds or other appropriate instruments conveying the property so sold, but
without covenant or warranty, express or implied.  Beneficiary and Trustee may bid and purchase at such sale.  To the extent of the Indebtedness secured
hereby, Beneficiary need not bid for cash at any sale of all or any portion of
the Property pursuant hereto, but the amount of any successful bid by
Beneficiary shall be applied in reduction of said Indebtedness.  Trustor hereby agrees, if it is then still
in possession, to surrender, immediately and without demand, possession of said
property to any purchaser.

 

29

 

Trustee shall apply the proceeds of any such sale to the payment of
expenses of sale and all charges and expenses of Trustee and of these trusts,
including costs of evidence of title and Trustee’s fees in connection with
sale; all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued
interest at the default rate determined by the Indenture; all other sums then
secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally
entitled thereto.

 

Beneficiary, from time to time before Trustee’s sale, may rescind any
notice of breach and election to sell by executing, delivering and causing
Trustee to record a written notice of such rescission.  The exercise by Beneficiary of such right of
rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or default then existing
or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute and
deliver to Trustee, as above provided, other notices of breach and election to
sell, nor otherwise affect any term, covenant or condition hereof or under any
obligation secured hereby, or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of the
parties thereunder.

 

Section 10.2                            Credit Bids.  At any foreclosure sale, any person,
including Grantor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may bid for and acquire the Trust
Property or any part thereof to the extent permitted by then applicable
law.  Instead of paying cash for such
property, Beneficiary may settle for the purchase price by crediting the sales
price of the property against the obligations in the order provided by
NRS 40.462.

 

Section 10.3                            Nevada Law.  Where not inconsistent with the above, the
following covenants, Nos. 1; 2 (full replacement value); 3; 4 (the rate or
rates at which interest is computed upon default of the Indebtedness); 5; 6; 7
(attorneys’ fees as provided herein); 8 and 9 of NRS 107.030 are
hereby adopted and made a part of this Deed of Trust.

 

ARTICLE 11

INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT

 

The lien of this Deed of Trust is subordinate to the lien of the
Superior Deed of Trust to the extent set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement
and this Deed of Trust is subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
