the commencement of the period for which the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is being
calculated but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the
Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made (the “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
Calculation Date”), then the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving

Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

     For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions,

obligations and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first
day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that

acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or disposed operation that would have required

Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the
entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness).
Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably
determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of
interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of
making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit
facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of
such Indebtedness during the applicable period except as set forth in the first paragraph of this
definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based
upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate,
shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such
optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

with GAAP; and

     (c) the product of (i) all dividends or other distributions accrued (excluding items
eliminated in consolidation) on any series of Disqualified Stock during such period, times

then current combined federal, state and local statutory tax rate of such Person, expressed

     “Consolidated Interest Expense” means, with respect to any Person for any period, without

costs, non-cash interest payments, the interest component of any deferred payment
obligations, the interest component of all payments associated with Capitalized Lease
Obligations, imputed interest with respect to Attributable Debt, commissions, discounts and
other fees and charges incurred

be excluded,

     (c) any after-tax effect of income (loss) from disposed, abandoned, transferred, closed
or discontinued operations and any net after-tax gains or losses on disposal of disposed,
abandoned, transferred, closed or discontinued operations shall be excluded,

     (d) any after-tax effect of gains or losses (less all fees and expenses relating
thereto) attributable to asset dispositions other than in the ordinary course of business,
as determined in good faith by the Company, shall be excluded,

     (e) the Net Income for such period of any Person that is not a Subsidiary or is an
Unrestricted Subsidiary or that is accounted for by the equity method of accounting, shall
be excluded; provided that Consolidated Net Income of the Company shall be increased by the
aggregate amount of Net Income of any such Person in respect of such period distributed to
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the form of cash dividends or distributions,

     (f) non-cash expenses resulting from the grant of stock and stock options and other
compensation to management personnel of the Company and

     (g) the Net Income for such period of any Restricted Subsidiary shall be excluded to
the extent that the declaration or payment of dividends or similar distributions by that

benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal,
premium or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the
Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a
Paying Agent, and in such event any such Paying Agent shall have the obligation, to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the
Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for such money. If the Company or a
Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the
benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization
proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Subsidiary in trust for the payment of principal or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed

Company at its request, or, if then held by the Company or a domestic Subsidiary, shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holders shall thereafter, as general unsecured creditors, look

     (ix) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as to any certifications and
certificates delivered to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06, the Registrar’s duties shall
be limited to confirming that any such certifications and certificates delivered to it are in the
form of Exhibits B, C and I attached hereto. The Registrar shall not be responsible for confirming
the truth or accuracy of representations made in any such certifications or certificates.

     SECTION 2.07 REPLACEMENT NOTES.

     If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the
Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall
authenticate a replacement Note if the Holder (i) satisfies the Company or the Trustee within a
reasonable time after he has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar
does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (ii) makes such request to the
Company or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a Protected Purchaser and (iii)
satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee and the Company including evidence of
the destruction, loss or theft of the Note. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient
in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary, the Trustee, the
Paying Agent, and the Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced,
including, but not limited to any loss or liability which any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment. The Company and the Trustee may charge
the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note including the payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be required. In the event any such mutilated,
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the
Company in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

     Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all
of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionally with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.

     The provisions of this Section 2.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful)
all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.

     SECTION 2.08 OUTSTANDING NOTES.

     Outstanding Notes means, as of the date of determination, all Notes theretofore authenticated
and delivered under this Indenture, except:

     (a) Notes theretofore cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, including Notes tendered and exchanged for other securities of the Company;

     (b) Notes for which payment or redemption money in the necessary amount has been
theretofore deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company) in trust
or set aside and segregated in trust by the Company (if the Company shall act as its own
Paying Agent) for the Holders of such Notes; provided, however, that if such Notes are to be
redeemed, then notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or
provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee has been made and the date for such
redemption has passed;

     (c) Notes, except to the extent provided in Section 8.04, with respect to which the
Company has effected defeasance as provided in Article VIII; and

     (d) Notes paid pursuant to Section 2.07 and Notes in exchange for or in lieu of which
other Notes have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture, other than any
such Notes in respect of which there shall have been presented to the Trustee proof
satisfactory to it that such Notes are held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such
Notes are valid obligations of the Company; provided, however, that in determining whether
the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes Outstanding have performed any Act
hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any other obligor upon such Notes or any Affiliate
of the Company or of such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be
Outstanding (provided that in connection with any offer by the Company or any obligor to
purchase or exchange Notes, Notes tendered by Holder shall be Outstanding until the date of
purchase or exchange), except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in
relying upon any such Act, only such Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually
knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in
good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of
the Trustee the pledgee’s right to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is
not the Company or any other obligor upon such Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of
such other obligor.

     SECTION 2.09 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

     SECTION 2.10 TEMPORARY NOTES.

     Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary
Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the
Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to
all of the benefits of this Indenture.

-48-

 

     SECTION 2.11 CANCELLATION.

     All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to
any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office. All
Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver
to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which
the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any
other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated
hereunder which the Company has not issued, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled
by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled
as provided in this Section 2.11, except as permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held
by the Trustee shall be delivered to the Company upon Company Request. The acquisition of any
Notes by the Company shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness
represented thereby unless and until such Notes are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Notes shall not be disposed of until exchanged in full for Definitive Notes or until payment
thereon is made in full.

     SECTION 2.12 DEFAULTED INTEREST.

     (a) Any interest on any Note which is payable but is not punctually paid or duly provided for
on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of his having been
such registered Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in
each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:

     (i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names such Notes (or their respective Predecessor Note) are registered at the close of
business on a special record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such
Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall
fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest. The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense
of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Holders
of such Notes at their addresses as they appear in the Note Register, not less than 15
calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid,
such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Notes (or their
respective Predecessor Note) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii).

     (ii) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Notes in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which
such Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange,

-49-

 

if, after notice is given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this
clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     (b) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12, each Note delivered under this
Indenture upon transfer of, in exchange for, or in lieu of, any other Note shall carry the rights
to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

     SECTION 2.13 CUSIP, ISIN OR COMMON CODE NUMBERS.

     The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers (if then
generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption or
repurchase as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as
contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or repurchase shall not
be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the
Trustee of any change in “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers.

ARTICLE III

this Article III, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2014 Notes

Regular Record Date prior to the Redemption Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest

     In addition, prior to May 15, 2013, the Company may redeem all or a part of the 2017 Notes, in

than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount, the

	 	 	105.563	%

-50-

 

(subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date prior to the Redemption Date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

     SECTION 3.02 ELECTION TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

     The election of the Company to redeem the Notes shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. The
Company shall, not less than 23 Business Days (unless a shorter notice period is acceptable to the
Trustee) nor more than 60 calendar days before the Redemption Date fixed by the Company, notify the
Trustee of such Redemption Date, the Redemption Price, the CUSIP numbers and the principal amount
of Notes to be redeemed.

     SECTION 3.03 SELECTION BY TRUSTEE OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED OR PURCHASED.

     If the Company is purchasing or redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Trustee will select
the Notes to be purchased or redeemed (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities
exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on
which the Notes are listed or (b) on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or, to the extent
that selection on a pro rata basis is not practicable, by lot or such other similar method in
accordance with the procedures of
the Depositary. The portions of the principal amount of Notes so selected for partial
redemption shall be equal to the minimum authorized denominations for Notes pursuant to Section
2.01(a) or any integral multiple thereof. In any case when more than one Note is registered in the
same name, the Trustee, in its discretion, may treat the aggregate principal amount so registered
as if it were represented by one Note.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Depositary (if other than itself) in
writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

     For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions
relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be
redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has been or is to
be redeemed.

     SECTION 3.04 NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

     Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company, or at the Company’s written request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, not less than 20 Business Days and not
more than 60 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date (which date may be extended in accordance
with applicable law) to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance
with the procedures of the Depositary; provided that a notice of redemption may be mailed more than
60 calendar days prior to a Redemption Date if such notice is issued in connection with the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 8.01 or Covenant Defeasance or
Legal Defeasance pursuant to Section 8.04. Any notice so given shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or not any such Holder receives such notice. Failure to give such
notice, or any defect in such notice to the Holder of any Note, in whole or in part, shall not
affect the sufficiency of any notice of redemption with respect to the Holder of any other Note.

     All notices of redemption shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP number) and
shall state:

-51-

 

     (a) the Redemption Date,

     (b) the Redemption Price,

     (c) that the Notes are being redeemed by the Company pursuant to provisions contained
in this Indenture or the terms of such Notes, together with a brief statement of the facts
permitting such redemption,

     (d) that (i) all Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, or (ii) if less than all
Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Notes to be redeemed,

     (e) in the case of Notes that are to be redeemed in part only, that on or after the
Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Notes, the Holders of such Notes will receive,
without charge, new Notes in authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof
remaining unredeemed,

     (f) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon
each such Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on
and after said date, and

     (g) the Place or Places of Payment where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment
of the Redemption Price.

     SECTION 3.05 DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

     On or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date for the Notes to be
redeemed, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is
acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.05) an amount
of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of such Notes which are to be redeemed on that
date.

     SECTION 3.06 NOTES PAYABLE ON REDEMPTION DATE.

     Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, any Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the
Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price and from and after such date
(unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Notes shall cease to
bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such
Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price; provided, however, that installments of
interest on Notes which have a Stated Maturity on or prior to the Redemption Date for such Notes
shall be payable according to the terms of such Notes and the provisions of Section 2.04, Section
2.12 and Section 4.05.

     If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption,
the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at
the rate prescribed therefor in such Note.

-52-

 

     SECTION 3.07 NOTES REDEEMED IN PART.

     Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the Corporate Trust
Office with, if the Company, the Depositary for such Notes or the Trustee so requires, due
endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the
Depositary for such Notes and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s
attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of
like tenor and form, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note
so surrendered. In the case of a Note providing appropriate space for such notation, at the option
of the Holder thereof, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new Note or Notes as aforesaid, may
make a notation on such Note of the payment of the redeemed portion thereof.

     SECTION 3.08 MANDATORY DISPOSITION OF NOTES PURSUANT TO GAMING LAWS.

     Each Holder and beneficial owner, by accepting or otherwise acquiring an interest in the
Notes, shall be deemed to have agreed that if the Gaming Authority of any jurisdiction in which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries conducts or proposes to conduct gaming activities requires that
a Person who is a Holder or beneficial owner must be licensed, qualified or found suitable under
the applicable Gaming Laws, such Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, shall apply for a
license, qualification or a finding of suitability within the required time period in accordance
with such Gaming Laws. If such Person fails to apply or become licensed or qualified or is found
unsuitable (a “Disqualified Holder”), then the Company shall have the right, at its option,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture:

     (a) to require such Person to dispose of its Notes or beneficial interest therein
within 30 calendar days of receipt of notice of the Company’s election or such earlier date
as may be requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority; or

     (b) to redeem such Notes, which Redemption Date may be less than 30 calendar days
following the notice of redemption if so requested or prescribed by the Gaming Authority, at
a redemption price equal to:

     (i) the lesser of:

     (A) the Person’s cost, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the earlier
of the Redemption Date or the date of the finding of unsuitability or failure to
comply; and

     (B) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to
the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the finding of unsuitability or
failure to comply; or

     (ii) such other amount as may be required by applicable Gaming Laws or by order of the
applicable Gaming Authority.

-53-

 

     The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such Disqualified Holder status or
redemption as soon as practicable. The Company shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses
any such Holder or beneficial owner may incur in connection with its application for a license,
qualification or a finding of suitability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture,
immediately upon the imposition of a requirement to dispose of Notes by a Gaming Authority, such
Person shall, to the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, have no further right (i) to
exercise, directly or indirectly, through any trustee, nominee or any other person or entity, any
right conferred by such Notes or (ii) to receive any interest, dividends or any other distributions
or payments with respect to such Notes or any remuneration in any form with respect to such Notes
from the Company or the Trustee, except the redemption price. Additionally, to the extent required
by applicable Gaming Laws, Notes held by a Disqualified Holder shall, so long as held by such
Person, be disregarded for the purposes of providing notices, directions, waivers, or other actions
and determining the sufficiency of such notices, directions, waivers or actions.

ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS

     SECTION 4.01 PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

     The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Notes, that it will duly and
punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in accordance with
the terms of the Notes, this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.

     SECTION 4.02 REPORTS.

     In the event the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act or otherwise does not report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided
for such annual and quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the
Commission, the Company shall make available to the Trustee, post to the Company’s publicly
accessible website, and otherwise make available to any Holder, without cost to any Holder, within
15 calendar days after the time the Company would be required to file such information with the
Commission, if it were subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, from and after the
Closing Date,

     (a) within 90 calendar days (or any other time period then in effect under the rules
and regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-K by a
non-accelerated filer) after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports on Form 10-K, or
any successor or comparable form, containing the information required to be contained
therein, or required in such successor or comparable form;

     (b) within 45 calendar days (or any other time period then in effect under the rules
and regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-K by a
non-accelerated filer) after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each
fiscal year, reports on Form 10-Q containing all quarterly information that would be
required to be contained in Form 10-Q, or any successor or comparable form;

     (c) promptly from time to time after the occurrence of an event required to be therein

     (d) any other information, documents and other reports which the Company would be
required to file with the Commission if it were subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act;

in each case, in a manner that complies in all material respects with the requirements specified in
such form; provided that none of the foregoing reports shall be required to contain the financial
statements of Bellagio, LLC and The Mirage Casino Hotel required by Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of
the Commission. In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, the Company agrees
that, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, it will furnish to Holders and to securities
analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered
pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

     Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational
purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants
hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on the Officer’s Certificate
described in Section 4.03). The Trustee is under no duty to examine such reports, information or
documents to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or to ascertain the
correctness or accuracy of the information or the statements contained therein. The Trustee is
entitled to assume such compliance and correctness unless an Officer of the Trustee is informed in
writing otherwise.

     SECTION 4.03 OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE AS TO COMPLIANCE.

     The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 calendar days after the end of each fiscal
year, a certificate of the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal
accounting officer of the Company stating whether or not, to the knowledge of the signer thereof,
the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are in compliance with all covenants and conditions
under the Transaction Documents, and, in the event of any noncompliance, specifying such
noncompliance and the nature and status thereof of which such signer may have knowledge. For
purposes of this Section 4.03, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of
grace or requirement of notice provided under the Transaction Documents.

     The Company shall, within 30 calendar days, upon becoming aware of any Event of Default,
deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default.

     Except with respect to a payment Default and any Default described in the certificates
delivered pursuant to this Section 4.03, the Trustee shall have no duty to review, ascertain or
confirm the Company’s compliance with, or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant
set forth in this Indenture.

     SECTION 4.04 MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

     The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for the Notes an office or agency where
such Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where such Notes may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in
respect of such Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.
If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail
to furnish the Trustee

-55-

 

 with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and the Company hereby
appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

     The Company may also from time to time designate different or additional offices or agencies
to be maintained for such purposes (in or outside of such Place of Payment), and may from time to
time rescind any such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall
in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations described in the preceding paragraph. The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such additional designation or
rescission of designation and any change in the location of any such different or additional office
or agency.

     SECTION 4.05 MONEY FOR NOTES; PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

     The Company shall maintain one or more Paying Agents for the Notes in the Borough of
Manhattan, City of New York. The initial Paying Agent for the Notes shall be the Trustee.

     Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents with respect to the Notes, it shall,
by or on each due date of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest on any such Notes,
deposit with any such Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or
interest so becoming due (in same day funds and, if a Global Note is Outstanding, by 10:00 a.m.,
New York City time, in order for the Trustee to make payment to the Depositary for the Notes in
accordance with rules of such Depositary), such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled thereto, and (unless any such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

     The Company shall cause each Paying Agent with respect to the Notes other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.05, that such Paying Agent shall:

     (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest on the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such
sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

     (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon
the Notes) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on
the Notes; and

     (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of
the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

     The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay,
to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by
the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such
Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.

-56-

 

     Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Note and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become
due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon Company Request, or (if then held by the Company)
shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or
such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before
being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be
transmitted in the manner and to the extent provided by Section 12.02, notice that such money
remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30
calendar days from the date of such notification, any unclaimed balance of such money then
remaining will be repaid to the Company upon Company Request.

     SECTION 4.06 CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

     Subject to Article V, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect its and each Restricted Subsidiary’s corporate,
partnership, limited liability company and other existence, rights (charter and statutory) and
franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or
franchise if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in
the conduct of the business of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     (iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so
accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or
portions thereof have been tendered to, and purchased by, the Company.

			
	     SECTION 4.13	 	LIMITATION ON INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF DISQUALIFIED STOCK AND
PREFERRED STOCK.

     (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to incur any
Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) and the Company will not issue any shares of
Disqualified Stock and will not permit any Subsidiary to issue any shares of Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur
Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, if the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a consolidated basis for the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries’ most recently ended four fiscal quarters for which internal financial
statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is
incurred or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would have been at least 2.00 to
1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds
therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, and the application of proceeds therefrom had
occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

     (b) The foregoing limitations of clause (a) shall not apply to:

     (i) the incurrence of Indebtedness under the Credit Facility by the Company, any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or Detroit and the issuance and creation of letters of credit
thereunder (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the face
amount thereof), up to an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to
exceed the excess of (A) (1) $7.0 billion, plus (2) the amount, not to exceed $1.0 billion
in the aggregate, by which commitments to borrow under the Credit Facility are increased
pursuant to the terms thereof and/or the amount which the Company and any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries or Detroit may borrow pursuant to one or more additional credit agreements
having terms similar to the Credit Facility, over (B) any scheduled amortization payments,
prepayments of term loans (other than any such prepayment effectuated in connection with
refinancing or replacing any such term loan) or prepayments of revolving loans accompanied
by a corresponding permanent reduction of commitments thereunder (other than any such
reduction of commitments effectuated in connection with refinancing or replacing any such
revolving loans); provided, that the liability of Detroit under the Credit Facility and any
other credit agreement entered into by Detroit having terms similar to the Credit Facility
is limited to that portion of the loans under such credit facilities which are actually
borrowed or the proceeds of which are actually received by Detroit;

     (ii) the incurrence by the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness
represented by the Notes (including any Subsidiary Guarantee) and any notes (including
Subsidiary Guarantees thereof) issued in exchange for the Notes pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement, if any, up to an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
not to exceed $1.5 billion;

     (iii) Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in existence on the
Closing Date (other than Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) and (ii));

     (iv) Indebtedness (including Capitalized Lease Obligations) incurred or issued by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to finance the purchase, lease or improvement
of property (real or personal) or equipment (other than software) that is used or useful in
the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount
at the date of such incurrence, together with all other Indebtedness previously incurred
under this clause (iv) (and including all Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred to refinance any
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (iv)), not to exceed 1.5% of Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets; provided, however, that such Indebtedness exists at the date of such
purchase or transaction or is created within 180 calendar days thereafter;

     (v) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary arising in respect of (A)
letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances, worker’s compensation claims, payment obligations
in connection with self-insurance or similar obligations and bid, appeal and surety bonds,
in each case in the ordinary course of business and in amounts and for the purposes
customary in such Person’s industry and (B) completion guarantees (to the extent that the
Incurrence thereof does not result in the Incurrence of any direct or indirect obligation
for the payment of borrowed money of others);

     (vi) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries
providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each
case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or
properties or a Subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person
acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or properties or a Subsidiary for the
purpose of financing such acquisition; provided, however, that

     (A) such Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance sheet of the Company, or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (contingent obligations referred to in a footnote
to financial statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet will not be
deemed to be reflected on such balance sheet for purposes of this subclause (A));
and

     (B) the maximum assumable liability in respect of all such Indebtedness shall
at no time exceed the gross proceeds including non-cash proceeds (the fair market
value of such non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without
giving effect to any subsequent changes in value) actually received by the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition;

     (vii) Indebtedness between or among the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries;
provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event
which results in the Restricted Subsidiary holding such Indebtedness ceasing to be a
Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to the
Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an incurrence
of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (b)(vii); provided, further, that any
Indebtedness incurred by any Collateral Grantor from the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary shall be unsecured Indebtedness;

-69-

 

     (viii) shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Company or
another Restricted Subsidiary, provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any
Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to
be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock
(except to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed in each case to be
an issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock not permitted by this clause;

     (ix) Hedging Obligations (excluding Hedging Obligations entered into for speculative
purposes) for the purpose of limiting interest rate risk with respect to any Indebtedness of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary permitted to be incurred pursuant to this Section
4.13;

     (x) the incurrence or issuance by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of
Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock, and the issuance by any Restricted Subsidiary of
Preferred Stock, in each case which serves to refund, refinance, replace, renew, extend,
prepay or defease any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary incurred as permitted under clause (a) above, clauses (b)(ii),
(b)(iii) and (b)(iv) above, or this clause (b)(x) or any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock issued to so refund, refinance, replace, renew, extend, prepay or defease
such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock including additional Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to pay premiums (including reasonable tender
premiums), defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith (the “Refinancing
Indebtedness”) prior to its respective maturity; provided, however, that such Refinancing
Indebtedness:

     (A) has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time such Refinancing
Indebtedness is incurred which is not less than the remaining Weighted Average Life
to Maturity of the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being
refunded, refinanced, replaced, renewed, extended or defeased,

     (B) the principal or other amount (or accreted value) of such Refinancing
Indebtedness does not exceed the principal or other amount (or accreted value, if
applicable) of the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock extended,
refinanced, renewed, replaced, defeased, prepaid or refunded (plus all accrued
interest and dividends on the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
and the amount of all expenses and premiums incurred in connection therewith);
provided that with respect to Refinancing Indebtedness incurred in respect of
Indebtedness incurred under clause (b)(iv) above, the principal amount or accreted
value, will not exceed the then current fair market value of the asset encumbered in
connection therewith,

     (C) to the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness refinances (1) Indebtedness
subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee
thereof, such Refinancing Indebtedness is subordinated to or pari passu with
the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee, as applicable, at least to the same extent as
the Indebtedness being refinanced or refunded or (2) Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, such Refinancing Indebtedness must be Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock,
respectively, and

     (D) such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is incurred by the
Person that is the obligor on or issuer of the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock

-70-

 

or Preferred Stock being extended, refinanced, renewed, replaced, defeased or refunded;

     (xi) Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of
a check, draft or similar instrument drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course
of business, provided that such Indebtedness is extinguished within two Business Days of its
incurrence;

     (xii) any guarantee by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness or other
obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary so long as the incurrence of such Indebtedness
incurred by such Restricted Subsidiary is permitted under the terms of this Indenture;

     (xiii) the Incurrence by Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Preferred Stock or Disqualified
Stock or Indebtedness that constitutes Non-Recourse Indebtedness; provided that, if any such
Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock ceases to be Non-Recourse Indebtedness of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to constitute an Incurrence of Indebtedness or
Disqualified Stock that is not permitted by this clause (b) (xiii); and

     (xiv) the incurrence or issuance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in an aggregate principal
or other amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at the date of such incurrence or
issuance, together with all other amounts previously incurred or issued pursuant to this
clause (b)(xiv), not to exceed 1.5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

     (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.13, in the event that an item
of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria
of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xiv) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.13(a), the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify or reclassify such item of
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and will only be
required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
in one of the above clauses; provided that all Indebtedness from time to time outstanding under the
Credit Facility shall at all times be treated as incurred pursuant to clause (b)(i) above to the
full extent of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under such clause. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, and subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, any Indebtedness under the Credit
Facility from time to time incurred under clause (b)(i) above the net proceeds of which
Indebtedness were applied to repay revolving Indebtedness outstanding under such clause (b)(i)
(“Credit Facility Refinancing Indebtedness”), may be reclassified as outstanding under clause
(b)(x) above; provided that (i) following the incurrence of such Credit Facility Refinancing
Indebtedness, Indebtedness under the Credit Facility in a principal amount equal to the net
proceeds of the Credit Facility Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred under clause
(b)(i) above to repay or prepay Indebtedness incurred under clause (a) above or clauses
(b)(ii), (b)(iii) or (b)(x) of the preceding paragraph (the “Specified Refinanced Debt”) and (ii)
the Credit Facility Refinancing Indebtedness, if it had been incurred and its net proceeds had been
directly and contemporaneously applied to the repayment or prepayment of the Specified Refinanced
Debt at the time the Specified Refinanced Debt was repaid or prepaid, would have satisfied the
definition of Refinancing Indebtedness set forth in clause (b)(x) in respect of such Specified
Refinanced Debt. In addition, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, in the event that
Indebtedness under the Credit Facility is first incurred under clause (b)(i) to repay or prepay
Specified Refinanced Debt and thereafter the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs
one or more issuances of Credit Facility Refinancing

-71-

 

Indebtedness, each of such issuances of Credit
Facility Refinancing Indebtedness, in an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of Specified
Refinanced Debt repaid or prepaid and the amount of such Credit Facility Refinancing Indebtedness,
may be reclassified as outstanding under clause (b)(x) above; provided that the Credit Facility
Refinancing Indebtedness, if it had been incurred and its net proceeds had been directly and
contemporaneously applied to the repayment or prepayment of the Specified Refinanced Debt at the
time the Specified Refinanced Debt was repaid or prepaid, would have satisfied the definition of
Refinancing Indebtedness set forth in clause (b)(x) in respect of such Specified Refinanced Debt.
In the event that the principal amount of the Credit Facility Refinancing Indebtedness exceeds the
amounts incurred under the Credit Facility under clause (b)(i) to repay or prepay Specified
Refinanced Debt, such excess principal amount may be reclassified as outstanding under Section
4.13(a) so long as any such reclassification would not cause a Default.

     Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional
Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, as applicable, will in each case not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.13.

     For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the
incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated
in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on
the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case
of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other
Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable
U.S. dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange
rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be
deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness
does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus the amount of any
reasonable premium (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and any reasonable fees
and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness.

     The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred
in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the
currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is
denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

     SECTION 4.14 LIMITATION ON LIENS.

     (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or
indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause to exist any Lien (except a Permitted Lien)
that secures obligations under any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor (any
such Lien, the “Additional Lien”), on any asset or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income
therefrom except, in the case of any asset or property that does not constitute Collateral, any
Additional Lien if the Notes are, or in the case of Indebtedness of any Subsidiary Guarantor, the
Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor is, equally and ratably secured with (or on a
senior basis to, in the case such Additional Lien secures any Subordinated Indebtedness) the
obligations secured by such Additional Lien.

-72-

 

     (b) Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to clause (a) above shall provide
by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon
the release and discharge of the Additional Lien.

     (c) The foregoing notwithstanding, any restriction on the ability of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to encumber the shares and ownership interests of any Restricted Subsidiary
that is a Nevada registered Subsidiary or which holds Nevada Gaming Licenses pursuant to this
Section 4.14 shall not be effective unless and until it is approved by the Chairman of the Nevada
State Gaming Control Board, or the Nevada Gaming Commission upon the recommendation of the Nevada
State Gaming Control Board.

     SECTION 4.15 LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS.

     The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into
any Sale and Leaseback Transaction; provided that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may
enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction with respect to any assets or properties other than
Collateral if:

     (a) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, is able to (i) incur
Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction under the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section
4.13(a) and (ii) incur a Lien to secure such Indebtedness in an amount equal to the
Attributable Debt pursuant to Section 4.14;

     (b) the gross cash proceeds of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction are at least equal
to the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or that
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate
delivered to the Trustee, of the property or assets that are the subject of such Sale and
Leaseback Transaction; and

     (c) the transfer of assets or properties in such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is
permitted by, and the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such
transaction in compliance with, Section 4.10.

     SECTION 4.16 LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

     (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly:

     (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any payment or distribution on account of the
Company’s, or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests, including, without
limitation, payable in connection with any merger or consolidation other than:

     (A) dividends or distributions by the Company payable solely in Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company; or

     (B) dividends, payments or distributions by a Restricted Subsidiary so long as,
in the case of any dividend, payment or distribution payable on or in respect of any
class or series of securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a

-73-

 

Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, (i) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at
least its pro rata share of such dividend or distribution in accordance with its
Equity Interests in such class or series of securities and (ii) the other
shareholders of the Restricted Subsidiary making such dividends, payments or
distributions are not Affiliates of such Restricted Subsidiary;

     (ii) purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity
Interests of the Company, including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or
consolidation;

     (iii) make any principal payment on, or redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise
acquire or retire for value in each case, prior to any scheduled repayment, sinking fund
payment or maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness, other than the purchase, repurchase or
other acquisition of Subordinated Indebtedness purchased in anticipation of satisfying a
sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within
one year of the date of purchase, repurchase or acquisition; or

     (iv) make any Restricted Investment,

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above (other than
any exceptions thereof) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at
the time of such Restricted Payment:

     (1) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a
consequence thereof;

     (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis,
the Company could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under the Consolidated
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.13(a); and

     (3) the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments does not exceed the sum,
without duplication, of:

     (I) 50% of the cumulative Consolidated Net Income (or if cumulative
Consolidated Net Income shall be a loss, minus 100% of such loss) of the
Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries during the period (treating such
period as a single accounting period) beginning on January 1, 2009 and
ending on the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Company
ending immediately prior to the date of the making of such Restricted
Payment for which internal financial statements are available, plus

     (II) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Company
from any Person (other than from a Subsidiary of the Company) from the
issuance and sale of Qualified Stock of the Company or the amount by which
Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is reduced by the
conversion or exchange of debt securities or Disqualified Stock into or for
Qualified Stock (to the extent that proceeds of the issuance of such
Qualified Stock would have been able to be included in this clause if such
Qualified Stock had been initially issued for cash) subsequent to November

-74-

 

14, 2008 (the “13% Secured Notes Issue Date”) and on or prior to the date of
the making of such Restricted Payment, plus

     (III) 100% of the aggregate cash received by the Company subsequent to
the 13% Secured Notes Issue Date and on or prior to the date of the making
of such Restricted Payment upon the exercise of options or warrants (whether

Qualified Stock of the Company, plus

     (IV) 100% of the aggregate cash and the fair market value of any

     (V) to the extent that any Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or an
Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after
the 13% Secured Notes Issue Date, the fair market value of the
Restricted Investment of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such
Person as of the date it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or in such
Unrestricted Subsidiary on the date of redesignation as a Restricted
Subsidiary, plus

     (VI) to the extent that any completion guarantee executed by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary after the 13% Secured Notes Issue Date
constitutes a Restricted Investment, 100% of the amount by which (i) the
amount of the liability associated with such completion guarantee reflected
on the most recent internally available balance sheet of the Company
prepared in accordance with GAAP is less than (ii) the amount of the
liability associated with such completion guarantee on the immediately
preceding internally available balance sheet of the Company prepared in
accordance with GAAP.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing or would
result therefrom (other than in respect of clause (iv) below), the provisions set forth in Section

-75-

 

     (i) the payment of any dividend or the making of any distribution within 60 calendar

4.13(a);

     (x) payments in lieu of fractional shares of the Company’s Capital Stock; and

     (xi) that portion of Restricted Investments the payment for which consists exclusively

Date, Restricted Payments made pursuant to clauses (ii)(A), (iii)(A)(2), (iii)(B)(2), (v), (vi),
(viii), (x) or (xi) of the immediately preceding paragraph shall, in each case, be excluded from
such calculation; provided that any amounts expended or liabilities incurred in respect of premiums
or similar payments in connection therewith shall be included in such calculation. The amount of
any Restricted Payment, if other than in cash, shall be equal to the fair market value of the
property involved, as determined in the good faith reasonable judgment of the Company.

     Not less than once each fiscal quarter in which the Company has made a Restricted Payment
(other than Restricted Payments made pursuant to clauses (ii)(A), (iii), (viii), (x) or (xi)
above), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that each
Restricted Payment made during the prior fiscal quarter complies with this Indenture and setting
forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which the required calculations were computed, which
calculations may be based upon the Company’s latest available internal quarterly financial
statements. In the event that the Company makes one or more Restricted Payments in an amount
exceeding $20.0 million that have not been covered by an Officer’s Certificate issued pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that such Restricted Payments comply with this Indenture and setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis upon which the required calculations were computed (upon which the
Trustee may conclusively rely without any investigation whatsoever),
which calculations may be based upon the Company’s latest available internal quarterly
financial statements.

     SECTION 4.17 LIMITATION ON LAYERED INDEBTEDNESS.

     The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or
indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior
in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case
may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such
Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such
Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as
the case may be.

     Unsecured Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness
merely because it is unsecured.

     SECTION 4.18 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

     (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any
payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets or properties to, or

-77-

 

purchase any assets or properties from, or enter into or make or amend, any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of any Affiliate of
the Company (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

     (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to
the Company or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained
in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated
Person on an arm’s-length basis;

     (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or
series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in
excess of $25.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the Board of Directors
approving such Affiliate Transaction and stating that such Affiliate Transaction complies
with clause (i) above; and

     (iii) the Company delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or
series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in
excess of $75.0 million, a written opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor that such
Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are fair to the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries from a financial point of view.

     (b) The foregoing provisions of clause (a) shall not apply to the following:

     (i) transactions between or among the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

     (ii) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.16 and clauses (h) and (l) of the
definition of “Permitted Investment”;

     (iii) the payment of fees and compensation paid to, and indemnities provided for the
benefit of, former, current or future officers, directors, employees or consultants of the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

     (iv) any agreement as in effect as of the Closing Date, or any amendment thereto (so
long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable
agreement as in effect on the Closing Date); and

     (v) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods
or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance
with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior
management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been
obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party.

-78-

 

			
	     SECTION 4.19	 	DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

     (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly
or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual
encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

     (i) (A) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries on its Capital Stock or with respect to any other interest or
participation in, or measured by, its profits, or

     (B) pay any liabilities owed to the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries;

     (ii) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

     (iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its assets or properties to the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (b) The foregoing limitations of clause (a) shall not apply to such encumbrances or
restrictions existing under or by reason of:

     (i) contractual encumbrances or restrictions in effect on the Closing Date;

     (ii) this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral Documents and the other Transaction
Documents;

     (iii) Indebtedness incurred under the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set
forth in Section 4.13(a) so long as the restrictions are no more onerous in any material
respect than the restrictions of the same type contained in this Indenture;

     (iv) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order;

     (v) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiaries in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in
contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or
assets or properties of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the
assets or properties of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired;

     (vi) contracts for the sale of assets or properties, including customary restrictions
with respect to a Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an agreement that has been entered
into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets
and properties of such Subsidiary;

     (vii) Secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.13
and Section 4.14 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets or properties
securing such Indebtedness;

-79-

 

     (viii) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under
contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

     (ix) customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements
relating solely to such joint venture;

     (x) customary provisions contained in leases or licenses of intellectual property and
other agreements, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business; and

     (xi) any encumbrances or restrictions of the type referred to in clauses (a)(i),
(a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals,
increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts,
instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (a)(i) through (a)(x) above; provided that
such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Company, no more
restrictive with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions taken as a whole than
those prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement,
refunding, replacement or refinancing.

			
	     SECTION 4.20	 	DESIGNATION OF RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

     The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary (including any newly-formed or
newly-acquired Subsidiary), other than a Restricted Subsidiary that owns any Collateral, to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary
is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value (as determined in the
good faith reasonable judgment of the Company) of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed an
Investment made in an Unrestricted Subsidiary as of the time of the designation and will reduce the
amount available for Restricted Payments under clause (3) of Section 4.16(a) or under the
definition of “Permitted Investments,” as determined by the Company. That designation will only be
permitted at that time if
such Investment is then permissible under Section 4.16 and the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise
meets the definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” The Board of Directors may redesignate any
Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if such redesignation would not cause a
Default.

     Any designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee
by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors after giving
effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied
with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.16.

     SECTION 4.21 INSURANCE.

     Until the Notes have been paid in full, the Company shall, and shall cause its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral with carriers against such
risks, in such amounts and with such deductibles as the Company determines to be reasonably prudent
(as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) and consistent with the past practices of
the Company, and name the Collateral Agent as additional insured or, with respect to casualty
insurance, loss payee, as the case may be, with losses in excess of $1.0 million payable jointly to
the Company and the Collateral Agent (unless a Default has occurred and is then continuing, in
which case all losses are payable

-80-

 

 solely to the Collateral Agent), with no recourse against the
Trustee or the Collateral Agent for the payment of premiums, deductibles, commissions or club
calls.

     SECTION 4.22 PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT.

     The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or
indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as
an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this
Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders
of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation
documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

     SECTION 4.23 SUSPENSION OF COVENANTS.

     (a) During any period of time after the Closing Date that (i) the corporate family rating of
the Company is an Investment Grade Rating of either Moody’s or S&P and (ii) no Default has occurred
and is continuing (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)
being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall not be subject to the following covenants (the “Suspended Covenants”): Sections
4.08 (except for Section 4.08(c)), 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19 and 4.21.

     Additionally, at such time as the above referenced covenants are suspended (a “Suspension
Period”), we will no longer be required to pledge the Collateral with respect to the Notes and the
Trustee shall promptly terminate such Lien.

     (b) In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the
Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date
(the “Reversion Date”) the corporate family rating of the Company is below an Investment Grade
Rating by both S&P or Moody’s, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter
again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events and will be required to
reinstate
the first priority Lien with respect to the Collateral or Replacement Collateral, in each case
to the extent permissible by the terms of all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries. In connection therewith, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive (i) such
Collateral Documents, title insurance, surveys, environmental reports, legal opinions and other
documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent may request and (ii) a legal opinion to the
effect that the granting of a Lien on the Collateral or replacement Collateral is permitted by the
terms of all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case
pursuant to procedures set forth in this Indenture (and each such item described in (i) and (ii) in
this Section 4.23(b) shall be at the Company’s expense).

     (c) On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred during the Suspension Period prior to
such Reversion Date will be deemed to be Indebtedness in existence on the Closing Date, except that
Indebtedness under the Credit Facility shall be deemed incurred under Section 4.13(b)(i) to the
extent permitted thereby, subject to the ability of the Company to reclassify amounts incurred
under such Section 4.13(b)(i) to Section 4.13(b)(x) as permitted by the terms thereof. For
purposes of calculating the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under clause (3) of
Section 4.16(a), calculations under such Section 4.16 shall be made as though Section 4.16 had been
in effect during the entire period of time after the Closing Date (including the Suspension
Period). Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period not otherwise permitted pursuant to
any of clauses (ii)

-81-

 

through (xi) of Section 4.16(b) will reduce the amount available to be made as
Restricted Payments under clause (3) of Section 4.16(a); provided that the amount available to be
made as Restricted Payments on the Reversion Date shall not be reduced to below zero solely as a
result of such Restricted Payments. In addition, events during the Suspension Period that, if not
for the Covenant Suspension Event, would have increased the amount available to be made as
Restricted Payments will increase the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under
clause (3) of Section 4.16(a).

     SECTION 4.24 POST-CLOSING MATTERS.

     The Company shall provide to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders, within 90 days after
the Closing Date (other than with respect to Excluded Assets):

     (a) subject to clause (b) below with respect to any requisite landlord consent, with respect
to each Collateral Grantor’s leasehold interest in any Real Estate, a leasehold Mortgage (or an
amendment and restatement of the fee Mortgage granted at the Closing Date relating to the same Real
Estate to add such leasehold estate to the lien of such Mortgage) granted by the applicable
Collateral Grantor of any such Real Estate in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Trustee and the holders of the Notes encumbering each such Collateral Grantors’s leasehold interest
in such Real Estate, duly executed and acknowledged by such Collateral Grantor, in form for
recording in the recorder’s office of Clark County, Nevada, together with such certificates,
affidavits, questionnaires or returns as shall be required in connection with the recording or
filing thereof and such financing statements and other similar statements as are required by the
Trustee in respect of each such Mortgage, and any other instruments necessary to grant the
interests purported to be granted by each such Mortgage (and to record such Mortgage in the
appropriate recording office) under the laws of said jurisdiction, which Mortgages and financing
statements and other instruments shall be effective to create a lien on such leasehold interest in
Real Estate in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and the holders of the Notes,
subject to no liens other than prior liens, as of the Closing Date, and thereafter Permitted Liens;

     (b) such consents, approvals, amendments, supplements, estoppels, tenant subordination
agreements, memoranda of lease or other instruments as shall be reasonably necessary and
commercially reasonably obtainable in order for each Collateral Grantor to grant the lien
contemplated by the Mortgages granted at the Closing Date or thereafter with respect to the Real
Estate;

     (c) with respect to each Mortgage granted at the Closing Date or thereafter, a policy of title
insurance (or irrevocable commitment to issue such a policy) insuring (or irrevocably committing to
insure) the lien of such Mortgage as a valid first priority fee or leasehold mortgage lien, as
applicable, on the real property interest and fixtures described therein, in respect of the Notes
and which policy (or irrevocable commitment) shall (a) be issued by a title company or companies
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, (b) include such coinsurance and reinsurance (with right of
direct access) as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, (c) have been supplemented by
endorsements reasonably requested by the Trustee and available at commercially reasonable premium
costs (including, without limitation, endorsements on matters relating to usury, first loss, last
dollar, non-imputation, public road access, doing business, variable rate, contiguity, “tie-in” or
“cluster”, environmental lien, address, subdivision, survey, any special use of the Real Estate or
improvements or equipment related thereto, and so-called comprehensive coverage over covenants and
restrictions); and (d) contain only Permitted Liens and such other exceptions to title as shall be
reasonably agreed to by the Trustee with respect to any Real Estate subject to a Mortgage
(individually, a “Title Policy”, and, collectively, “Title Policies”); provided, that the amount of
insurance to be purchased under the Title Policies shall be in an

-82-

 

aggregate amount equal to the
principal amount of the Notes issued at the Closing Date, with an insured amount for each Title
Policy to be allocated approximately 33.33% to the Title Policy issued with respect to Real Estate
relating to Mirage and 66.67% to the Title Policy issued with respect to the Real Estate relating
to the Bellagio, LLC;

     (d) with respect to any Real Estate subject to a Mortgage, a survey and survey certificate
dated not earlier than 30 days prior to the date of this Indenture satisfying the requirements of
Exhibit J hereto, including, without limitation, in such form as shall be required by the title
insurance company to issue the so-called comprehensive endorsement required under paragraph
(c) above and to remove the standard survey exception from such Title Policy with respect to the
Real Estate and complying with the minimum detail requirements of the American Land Title
Association and such additional Table A items set forth in Exhibit J, certified to the Trustee and
dated not earlier than 30 days prior to the date of this Indenture;

     (e) policies or certificates of insurance as required by the Mortgages, this Indenture or
other Collateral Document which policies or certificates shall bear endorsements of the character
required pursuant to the Mortgages;

     (f) such affidavits, certificates and instruments of indemnification as shall be reasonably
required to induce the title insurance company to issue the Title Policies; and

     (g) checks or wire transfers to the title insurance companies in respect of amounts in payment
of required recording cost and transfer taxes due, if any, in respect of the execution, delivery or
recording of the Mortgages, together with a check or wire transfer for the title insurance
companies in payment of their premium, search and examination charges, applicable survey costs and
any other amounts then due in connection with the issuance of their Title Policies.

is a corporation;

     (b) the Successor Company, if other than the Company, expressly assumes all the

instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

     (c) immediately after such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto, no

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.13(a);

     (e) each Subsidiary Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions
described above, in which case subclause (a)(ii) of Section 5.02 shall apply, shall have by
supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations
under this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral Documents and the Registration Rights
Agreement;

     (f) the Company (or, if applicable, the Successor Company) shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such

	     SECTION 5.02	 	MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL ASSETS OF SUBSIDIARY
GUARANTORS.

     Subject to certain limitations described in this Indenture governing release of a Subsidiary
Guarantee upon the sale, disposition or transfer of a Subsidiary Guarantor, no Subsidiary Guarantor
shall, and the Company shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate or merge with or
into or wind up into, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its assets and properties (determined on a consolidated basis), in one or more
related transactions, to any Person unless:

be, being herein called the “Successor Guarantor”);

     (ii) the Successor Guarantor, if other than such Subsidiary Guarantor, expressly
assumes all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture, such
Subsidiary Guarantor’s related Subsidiary Guarantee, if applicable, the Collateral
Documents and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to supplemental indentures
or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

-84-

 

     (iii) immediately after such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto,
no Default exists;

     (iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer
and such supplemental indentures and other documents or instruments, if any, comply

Successor Guarantor will take such action as may be reasonably necessary to cause
such assets and properties to be made subject to a first priority Lien under the
Collateral Documents in the manner and to the extent required in this Indenture; or

     (b) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.10 or in the case of a transaction
involving a Collateral Grantor, Section 4.11.

furtherance of any such action; or

     (h) the Subsidiary Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary shall for any reason cease
to be in full force and effect or be declared null and void, in each case for a period of 15

collectively account for 10% or more of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets or
10% or more of the Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ consolidated gross revenues
(other than any voluntary relinquishment of a Gaming License if such relinquishment is, in
the reasonable, good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, evidenced by a certified copy
of a Board Resolution delivered to the Trustee, both desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and not disadvantageous in any material
respect to the Holders).

     A Default under clause (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 6.01 is not an Event of Default until
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
notify the Company in writing by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, of the
Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clauses (c), (d) or
(e) of this Section 6.01, as applicable, after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify
the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.

     SECTION 6.02 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

     If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (f) or (g) of
Section 6.01) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not
less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all
the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the
Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount of the Notes
(or specified amount) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (and premium, if payable) shall
become immediately due and payable; provided that the Trustee shall have no obligation to
accelerate the Notes if in its best judgment acceleration is not in the best interest of the
Holders.

     At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes has been made
and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences if:

-87-

 

     (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

     (i) all overdue installments of interest on the Notes;

     (ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) the Notes which has become due
otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in the Notes;

     (iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue
installments of interest on the Notes at the rate or rates prescribed by the terms thereof;

     (iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;
and

     (b) all Events of Default with respect to the Notes, other than the nonpayment of the
principal of the Notes which has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have
been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13. No such rescission and waiver shall
affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     If an Event of Default described in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 occurs with respect to
the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest
on all the Notes shall be due and payable immediately without any further action or notice. In
addition to acceleration of maturity of the Notes, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exercise remedies with respect to the Collateral, such
as foreclosure, as are available under this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and at law.

     SECTION 6.03 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

     The Company covenants that, if:

     (a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on the Notes when
such interest or payment becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of
30 calendar days, or

     (b) default is made in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) the Notes
at the Maturity thereof, then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for
the benefit of the Holders, the amount then due and payable on the Notes for the principal
(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as
shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

     If the Company fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own
name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of
the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys
adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company
or any other obligor upon the Notes wherever situated.

-88-

 

     If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee
may, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by
such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and
enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper
remedy.

     The Trustee shall be under no duty to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to make or give
any presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, protest, notice of protest,
notice of dishonor, or other notice or demand, or to take any steps necessary to preserve any
rights against prior parties except as expressly provided in this Indenture.

     SECTION 6.04 TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

     In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceedings, or any
voluntary or involuntary case under the federal Bankruptcy Laws, as now or hereafter constituted,
relative to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or the property of the Company or of any
Subsidiary Guarantor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the
Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration of acceleration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any)
and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial
proceeding, and

     (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such proceeding is hereby
authorized by each such Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that
the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Holders, to pay to
the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 7.07.

     Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

     SECTION 6.05 TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF DEBT SECURITIES.

     All rights of action and claims under this Indenture, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees or
the other Transaction Documents may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name, as

-89-

 

trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision
for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

     SECTION 6.06 APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

     Subject to the terms of the Collateral Documents, any money collected by the Trustee in
respect of the Notes pursuant to this Article or the other Transaction Documents shall be applied
in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution
of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the
Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if
fully paid:

     FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07;

     SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on the Notes ratably, without preference or priority of any
kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal (and premium, if
any) and interest, respectively;

     THIRD: Without duplication, to the Holders for any other obligations owing to such
Holders under the Notes, this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents; and

     FOURTH: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.

     SECTION 6.07 LIMITATION ON SUITS.

     Other than as set forth in this Section 6.07, except to enforce the right to receive payment
of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect
to this Indenture, the Notes or the other Transaction Documents unless:

     (a) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is
continuing;

     (b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes have
requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

     (c) Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss,
liability or expense satisfactory to the Trustee;

     (d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 calendar days after the
receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and

     (e) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes have
not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period;
it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in
any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture, the
Subsidiary
Guarantees or the other Transaction Documents to affect, disturb or prejudice the
rights of any other such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, the Subsidiary

-90-

 

Guarantees or the other Transaction Documents, except in the manner herein provided and for
the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. For the protection and enforcement of
the provisions of this Section 6.07, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled
to such relief as can be given at law or in equity.

     The foregoing notwithstanding, in no event shall an individual Holder have the right to pursue
any remedy with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantee of Bellagio, LLC and The Mirage Casino-Hotel or
the Obligations or Guaranteed Obligations of any Collateral Grantor pledging Collateral consisting
of any Gaming Facility or Gaming Facilities, without the agreement of Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes.

     SECTION 6.08 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, except for restrictions imposed by
Gaming Laws or Gaming Authorities on payments by entities holding Gaming Licenses, the Holder of
any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Note on the respective Stated Maturity or
Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption or purchase, on the
Redemption Date or Purchase Date, respectively) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any
such payment and interest thereon, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder except that no Holder shall have the right to institute any such suit, if and to the extent
that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would under applicable
law result in the surrender, impairment, waiver, or loss of Liens upon any property subject to such
Lien in favor of the Beneficiaries of the Notes.

     SECTION 6.09 RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

     If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under any Transaction Document and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such
case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

     SECTION 6.10 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, no right or
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted
by law (including Gaming Laws), be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

-91-

 

     SECTION 6.11 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

     No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing
upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such
Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by the Transaction
Documents or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

     SECTION 6.12 CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

     The Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have the
right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to
the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with
respect to the Transaction Documents, provided that:

     (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law (including Gaming
Laws) or with any of the Transaction Documents;

     (b) subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Trust Officer
or Trust Officers of the Trustee, determine that such direction conflicts with law or the
Transaction Documents or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of
any other Holder of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability; and

     (c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not
inconsistent with such direction.

     SECTION 6.13 WAIVER OF EXISTING DEFAULTS.

     The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes, by notice to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any existing
Default and its consequences hereunder or under the Collateral Documents and rescind any
acceleration with respect to the Notes (provided such rescission would not conflict with any
judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction), except a continuing Default in the payment of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest on any Note held by a non-consenting Holder.

     Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Notes under this Indenture,
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent
thereon.

     In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) above, such Event of Default
and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of
acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any
action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 calendar days after such Event of Default arose:

     (a) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
discharged;

-92-

 

     (b) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the
case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or

     (c) the Default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

     SECTION 6.14 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by his acceptance thereof
shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit
other than the Trustee of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against
any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or
defenses made by such party litigant, but the provisions of this Section 6.14 shall not apply to
any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder or group of Holders
holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, or to any suit
instituted by any Holder of a Note for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest on such Note on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Stated
Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption or purchase, on or after the
Redemption Date or the Purchase Date, respectively).

     SECTION 6.15 WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

     The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter
in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of the Transaction Documents; and the
Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or
impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

     SECTION 6.16 DISQUALIFIED HOLDERS.

     To the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, Notes held by a Disqualified Holder shall,
so long as held by such Person, be disregarded for purposes of providing notices, directions,
waivers or other actions and determining the sufficiency of such notices, directions, waivers or
actions under this Article VI.

hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under

     (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall, with
respect to the Notes, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and the

prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
affairs.

this Section 7.01;

reasonably assured to it; and

Authority in connection with this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, including
that the Trustee submit an application for any license, finding of suitability or other

prepare) all documentation in connection with any such order, directive, application and
proceeding and to reimburse the Trustee for all costs and expenses incurred by it in

Agent under each of the Indenture and Collateral Documents, and each agent, custodian and other
Person employed to act hereunder.

     SECTION 7.04 NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS OR ISSUANCE OF NOTES.

     The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee’s certificates of

accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds thereof.

     SECTION 7.05 MAY HOLD NOTES.

     The Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Sections
7.08 and 7.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were
not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

     SECTION 7.06 MONEY HELD IN TRUST.

     Money in any currency held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust hereunder need not be

     The Company agrees:

     (a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed in
writing between the Company and the Trustee in Dollars for all services rendered by it
hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

-97-

 

     (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee in Dollars
upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by
the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or the other Transaction
Documents (including costs incurred in connection with applications to any Gaming Authority
and including the reasonable compensation and the reasonable expenses and disbursements of
its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be
attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct; and

     (c) to indemnify in Dollars the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising
out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or performance
of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any
claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) or liability in
connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The
indemnity described in this Section 7.07(c) shall survive the termination of this Indenture
and the resignation or removal of the Trustee (in any of its capacities herein) with respect
to such loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Trustee’s acts or
omissions prior to such termination of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the
Trustee.

     The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee
for reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional Indebtedness under
this Indenture and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and any rejection
or termination of this Indenture under any Bankruptcy Law. When the Trustee incurs expenses or
renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) occurs, the expenses
and the compensation for the services of the Trustee are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

     SECTION 7.08 DISQUALIFICATION; CONFLICTING INTERESTS.

     The Trustee shall comply with the relevant provisions of the TIA with respect to conflicts of
interest and disqualification. If such provisions require the Trustee to resign with respect to

with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

     SECTION 7.09 CORPORATE TRUSTEE REQUIRED; ELIGIBILITY.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of
Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital
and surplus of at least $100,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State or
District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.09, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent

     SECTION 7.10 RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

     Subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Laws of which the Trustee has received prior
written notice:

     (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Trustee under Section 7.11.

     (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Notes by giving written
notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall
not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 calendar days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes.

     (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Notes and a successor
Trustee appointed by Act of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If an instrument of
acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30
calendar days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Notes.

     (d) If at any time:

     (i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 7.08 with respect to the
Notes after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a
bona fide Holder for at least six months; or

     (ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.09 with respect to
the Notes and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or
by any such Holder; or

     (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be
appointed
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (A) the Company, by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with
respect to the Notes, or (B) subject to Section 6.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of such a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee for the Notes.

     (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a
vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Notes, the
Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Notes and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 7.11. If,

-99-

 

within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such
vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall be appointed by Act of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the
Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon
its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes
and, to that extent, supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no
successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall have been so appointed by the Company or
the Holders of the Notes and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of such a Note for at least six months may, subject
to Section 6.07, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Notes.

     (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee
with respect to the Notes and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Notes in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 12.02 to the Holders. Each notice
shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and the address of
its Corporate Trust Office.

     SECTION 7.11 ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

     Subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Laws:

     (a) In the case of an appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Notes, each such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
the Company and to the retiring 79 Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such
successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee, but, on request of the
Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights,
powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to
such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder,
subject nevertheless to its lien and claim, if any, provided for in Section 7.07.

     (b) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor
Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section
7.11, as the case may be.

     (c) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

     SECTION 7.12 MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

     Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the
corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided
that such corporation

-100-

 

shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In
case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any
successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor
Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. In case any Notes shall not have been authenticated
by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Notes, in
either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and effect which this
Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee.

     SECTION 7.13 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

     If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or other obligor under
the Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of TIA § 311(a) regarding the collection
of claims against the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor (or any such other obligor), excluding
any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall
be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

     SECTION 7.14 APPOINTMENT OF AUTHENTICATING AGENT.

     As long as any Notes remain Outstanding, upon a Company Request, there shall be an
authenticating agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) appointed, for such period as the Company shall
elect, by the Trustee to act as its agent on its behalf and subject to its direction in connection
with the authentication and delivery of the Notes. Notes authenticated by such Authenticating
Agent shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by such Trustee. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or to the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of
the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of
such Trustee by such Authenticating Agent, except that only the Trustee may authenticate Notes upon
original issuance and pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof. Such Authenticating Agent shall at all
times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America
or of any state, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal
or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for
purposes of this Section 7.14, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report
of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.14, such Authenticating Agent shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 7.14.

     Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted, or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or
substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent,
shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent with respect to the Notes for which it served as
Authenticating Agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or such Authenticating Agent. Any Authenticating Agent may at any time, and if it
shall cease to be

-101-

 

eligible shall, resign by giving written notice of resignation to the applicable
Trustee and to the Company.

     Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time
any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.14 with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall, upon Company Request, appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, and the Company shall provide notice of such appointment to all
Holders of Notes in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 12.02. Any successor
Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all
rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent herein. The Company agrees to pay to the Authenticating
Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The Authenticating Agent for the
Notes shall have no responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such at the direction
of the Trustee, except arising out of its negligence or willful misconduct.

     If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section 7.14, the Notes may have endorsed thereon,
in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of
authentication in the following form:

     This is one of the Notes designated therein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000.

     SECTION 8.04 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

     (a) The Company may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set
forth in an Officer’s Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.04(b) or 8.04(c) be

conditions set forth in Section 8.05, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with
respect to the Notes, the Collateral Documents and any Subsidiary Guarantee on the date the

Legal Defeasance means that the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to have paid

Guarantee, which Notes and Guarantee shall thereafter be deemed to be Outstanding only for the
purposes of Section 8.04 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (i) and (ii)

of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any
thereof) in connection with such Sections, but shall continue to be deemed Outstanding for all the
other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect of any
term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section, whether directly or indirectly, by
reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any
such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply

the Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise of its Covenant
Defeasance option, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.05, clauses

result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred;

Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to such Indebtedness, and the
granting of Liens in connection therewith);

     (f) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions
following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of Section 547 of
Title 11 of the United States Code;

required by law.

     The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or
assessed against the Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.05 or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is
for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Notes.

     SECTION 8.07 REPAYMENT TO COMPANY.

     (e) After a supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a

     (g) To the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, Notes held by a Disqualified Holder

     SECTION 9.02 EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

     In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter
into any such supplemental indenture which adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise in a material way.

     SECTION 9.03 EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

     Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be
modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture
for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes affected thereby theretofore or thereafter
authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

     SECTION 9.04 REFERENCE IN NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

     Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant
to this Article and affected thereby may, and shall, if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in

Company shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and
the Board of Directors, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the
Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

     SECTION 9.05 REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS AND WAIVERS.

     A consent to a supplemental indenture or waiver by a Holder shall bind such Holder and every
subsequent Holder of the applicable Note or portion thereof that evidences the same Indebtedness as
the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s
Note or portion thereof if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the

-111-

 

requisite number of consents are received by the Company or the Trustee. After a supplemental
indenture or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. A supplemental indenture or
waiver becomes effective once the requisite number of consents are received by the Company or the
Trustee and any other conditions to effectiveness of such consent specified in the amendment or
waiver are satisfied.

     The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of
determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or
required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then
notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record
date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such
consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such
Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

     SECTION 10.01 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE.

     (a) In consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, hereby
unconditionally guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustee, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes owned by such Holder or the Obligations of the Company
under this Indenture, the Notes or the other Transaction Documents, that: (i) the principal of and
interest on such Notes will be paid in full when due, whether at the Stated Maturity or the
Interest Payment Date, by acceleration, call for redemption, upon a purchase offer or otherwise,
and interest on the overdue principal and interest, if any, of such Notes, if lawful, and all other
obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee under this Indenture, such Notes and the
other Transaction Documents will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture, such Notes and the other Transaction Documents; and (ii) in case of any
extension of time of payment or renewal of
any securities or any of such other Obligations, they will be paid in full when due or
performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, call for redemption, upon a purchase offer or otherwise (collectively, the
“Guaranteed Obligations”). This Subsidiary Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of
collection. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Subsidiary Guarantee of Bellagio, LLC and The
Mirage Casino-Hotel or any Collateral Grantor that pledges Collateral consisting of real property
includes an obligation to ensure that no Event of Default will occur.

     Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall be unconditionally and jointly and severally obligated to pay the same.

     (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that (i) its obligations with regard to this Subsidiary
Guarantee shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Notes, this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, any amendments to this Indenture, such
Notes or the other Transaction Documents, the absence of any action to enforce the same or to
exercise remedies against the Collateral, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any
action to enforce the same or to exercise remedies against the Collateral or any other
circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
guarantor and (ii) this Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance
of the Obligations contained in the Notes, this

-112-

 

Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.
Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing
of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to
require a proceeding first against the Company or right to require the prior disposition of the
assets of the Company to meet its obligations, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby waives, to the
extent permitted under Nev. Rev. Stat. 40.495, any rights arising out of Nev. Rev. Stat. 40.430.

     (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to either the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any Custodian, Trustee, or similar official acting in
relation to either the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by either the Company
or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to
the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect with respect to the
applicable Notes. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that it will not be entitled to any
right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby
except as set forth in Section 10.05 hereof.

     (d) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that (i) the maturity of the Obligations
guaranteed hereby shall be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02 hereof for the purposes of this
Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration as to the Company of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any
declaration of acceleration of those obligations as provided in Section 6.02, those obligations
(whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee.

     SECTION 10.02 EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE.

     To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor by a
duly authorized officer.

     Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section
10.01 shall remain in full force and effect and apply to all the Notes.

     If an Officer whose facsimile signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time
the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary
Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

     The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall
constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the
Subsidiary Guarantors.

     SECTION 10.03 LIMITATION OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR’S LIABILITY.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor and by its acceptance hereof each Holder hereby confirms that it is
the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor
pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for
purposes of any federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each such Subsidiary
Guarantor under its Subsidiary

-113-

 

Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after
giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after
giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary
Guarantor in respect of the Obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary
Guarantee or pursuant to Section 10.04, result in the Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor
under such Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer
under federal or state law.

     SECTION 10.04 CONTRIBUTION.

     In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Subsidiary Guarantors, the
Subsidiary Guarantors agree, inter se, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any
Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Notes (a “Funding Guarantor”) under its Subsidiary
Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Subsidiary
Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the net worth of each Subsidiary Guarantor (including the
Funding Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Guarantor in
discharging the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes or any other Subsidiary Guarantor’s
obligations with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantee.

     SECTION 10.05 RIGHTS UNDER THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE.

     (a) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors waives notice of the issuance, sale and purchase of any
Notes and notice from the Trustee or the Holders from time to time of any of such Notes of their
acceptance and reliance on this Subsidiary Guarantee.

     (b) Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Subsidiary Guarantors by reason of
this Subsidiary Guarantee, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not be subrogated to any rights of the
Trustee or any Holder against the Company until all Notes shall have been paid or deemed to have
been paid within the meaning of this Indenture. Any payment made by the Subsidiary Guarantors by
reason of this Subsidiary Guarantee shall be in all respects subordinated to the full and complete
payment or discharge under this Indenture of all Obligations guaranteed hereby, and no payment by
the Subsidiary Guarantors by reason of this Subsidiary Guarantee shall give rise to any claim of
the Subsidiary Guarantors against the Trustee or any Holder. Unless and until the applicable Notes
shall have been paid or deemed to have been paid within the meaning of this Indenture, none of the
Subsidiary Guarantors will assign or otherwise transfer any such claim against the Company to any
other Person.

     (c) No set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any obligation or any defense of any
kind or nature (other than performance by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their Obligations hereunder)
which any Subsidiary Guarantor may have or assert against the Trustee or any Holder of any Note
shall be available hereunder to such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Trustee.

     (d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay all costs, expenses and fees, including all
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, which may be incurred by the Trustee in enforcing or
attempting to enforce this Guarantee or protecting the rights of the Trustee or the Holders, if
any, in accordance with this Indenture.

     SECTION 10.06 PRIMARY OBLIGATIONS.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it is directly liable to each Holder hereunder, that the
Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Obligations of the
Company

-114-

 

or any other guarantor, and that a separate action may be brought against each Subsidiary
Guarantor, whether such action is brought against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or
whether the Company or any other guarantor is joined in such action. Each Subsidiary Guarantor
agrees that its liability hereunder shall be immediate and shall not be contingent upon the
exercise or enforcement by the Trustee or the Holders of whatever remedies they may have against
the Company or any other guarantor, or the enforcement of any Lien or realization upon any
Collateral. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that any release which may be given by the Trustee or
the Holders of the Notes to the Company or any other guarantor shall not release such Subsidiary
Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor consents and agrees that the Trustee shall be under no
obligation to marshal any property or assets of the Company or any other guarantor in favor of such
Subsidiary Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations.

     SECTION 10.07 WAIVERS.

     (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives any right to receive, or any claim or defense
based on failure to receive: (i) notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) notice
of any adverse change in the financial condition of the Company or of any other fact that might
increase such Subsidiary Guarantor’s risk hereunder; (iii) notice of a Default; and (iv) all other
notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Subsidiary Guarantor
under this Indenture to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party) and demands to which such
Subsidiary Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.

     (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise to require the
Trustee or the Holders to institute suit against the Company (or against any other Person) or to
exhaust any rights and remedies which the Trustee or the Holders have or may have against the
Company (or against any other Person) or against the Collateral. In this regard, each Subsidiary
Guarantor agrees that it is bound to the payment of each and all of the Guaranteed Obligations,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, as fully as if such Guaranteed Obligations were directly
owing to the guaranteed party by such Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further
waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense
that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of the Company or by
reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Company in respect
thereof.

     (c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives: (i) any claim or defense directly or indirectly
arising from or caused by any election of remedies by the Trustee or the Holders, whether or not
such election of remedies directly or indirectly results in impairment or loss of rights or claims
of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Company or other Persons; and (ii) any defenses based on
suretyship law or impairment of Collateral.

     SECTION 10.08 RELEASES.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by such Subsidiary
Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor
hereunder, the Trustee may, by action or inaction, compromise or settle, extend the period of
duration or the time for the payment, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to, or
otherwise not enforce, or may, by action or inaction, release all or any one or more parties to,
any one or more of the terms and provisions of this Indenture or may grant other indulgences to the
Company in respect thereof, or may, by action or inaction, release or substitute any other
guarantor, if any, of the Guaranteed Obligations, or

-115-

 

may enforce, exchange, release, or waive, by
action or inaction, any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guarantee of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof.

     SECTION 10.09 NO ELECTION.

     The Trustee shall have the right to seek recourse against each Subsidiary Guarantor to the
fullest extent provided for herein and no election by the Trustee to proceed in one form of action
or proceeding, or against any party, or on any Obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Trustee’s
right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding, or against other parties unless the
Trustee has expressly waived such right in writing.

     SECTION 10.10 FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE COMPANY.

     Each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Trustee and Holders that it is
currently informed of the financial condition of the Company and the other Subsidiary Guarantors
and, of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk
of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further represents and
warrants to the Trustee and Holders that it has read and understands the terms and conditions of
this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby covenants
that it will continue to keep itself informed of the Company’s and the other Subsidiary Guarantor’s
financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors, if any, and of all other
circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

-119-

 

     SECTION 11.06 PURCHASER PROTECTED.

     No purchaser or grantee of any property or rights purporting to be released herefrom shall be
bound to ascertain the authority of the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the

	 	SECTION 11.07
	 	AUTHORIZATION OF ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN BY THE TRUSTEE AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT UNDER THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS.

     Subject to compliance with any applicable Gaming Laws and to the provisions of the Collateral

enforce any of the terms of the Collateral Documents and (ii) collect and receive any and all

     (ii) all proceeds of all Liens at any time granted by the Company or any its
Subsidiaries in the Collateral to secure the Notes shall be allocated and distributed

enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, each present and future holder of Pari Passu Secured
Indebtedness and any trustee, collateral agent or other representative in respect thereof.

that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this
Indenture or the Collateral Documents relating to the proposed action have been complied
with, provided, however, that with respect to matters of law, an Officer’s Certificate may
be based upon an Opinion of Counsel, unless the signers know, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that such Opinion of Counsel is erroneous; and

     (2) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee or the
Collateral Agent (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 12.04) stating
that, in

-122-

 

the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with,
provided, further, that with respect to matters of fact an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an
Officer’s Certificate or certificates of public officials, unless the signer knows, or in
the exercise of reasonable care should know, that any such document is erroneous.

     SECTION 12.04 STATEMENTS REQUIRED IN CERTIFICATE OR OPINION.

     Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided
for in this Indenture or the Collateral Documents shall include:

     (1) a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such
covenant or condition;

     (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation
upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

or condition has been complied with.

     SECTION 12.05 RULES BY TRUSTEE, PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR.

     The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Holders. The Registrar
and the Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions.

     SECTION 12.06 BUSINESS DAYS.

     Unless otherwise specified pursuant to this Indenture or in the Notes, in any case where any
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Purchase Date or Stated Maturity of the Notes shall not be
a Business Day at any Place of Payment for such Notes, then (notwithstanding any other provision
of this Indenture or of such Notes) payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest need not
be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day
at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date or at the Stated Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable
for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Payment Date or Stated
Maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day if such payment is made or duly provided for on
such Business Day.

     SECTION 12.07 GOVERNING LAW.

     THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES
OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE
REQUIRED THEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF
THE STATE OF

-123-

 

NEVADA IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE
NOTES OR THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

     SECTION 12.08 NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.

     No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor or any of their parent companies shall have any liability for any Obligations of the
Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, this Indenture or
the Collateral Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such Obligations
or their creation. Each Holder by accepting the Notes waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may
not be effective to waive liabilities of directors, officers or persons controlling the Company
under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such waiver is against
public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

     SECTION 12.09 SUCCESSORS.

     All agreements of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor in this Indenture, the Collateral
Documents, the Notes (including the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsements thereon) and the other
Transaction Documents shall bind their successors. All agreements of the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent in this Indenture shall bind their successors.

     SECTION 12.10 MULTIPLE ORIGINALS.

     The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an
original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to
prove this Indenture.

     SECTION 12.11 TABLE OF CONTENTS; HEADINGS.

     The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this
Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a
part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

     SECTION 12.12 SEVERABILITY.

     In case any one or more of the provisions in this Indenture, in the Notes or in the Subsidiary
Guarantees shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the
validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that
all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

     SECTION 12.13 NO ADVERSE INTERPRETATION OF OTHER AGREEMENTS.

     This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to
interpret this Indenture.

-124-

 

     SECTION 12.14 NO PARENT LIABILITY.

     In the event (a) there is any Default or other default or alleged default by the Company, any
Subsidiary Guarantor or any Affiliate of any thereof under this Indenture, the Notes, any
Subsidiary Guarantee, any Collateral Document, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other
document, instrument or agreement arising out of or relating to any of the foregoing (collectively,
the “Transaction Documents”) or (b) the Trustee, the Collateral Agent any Holder or any Affiliate
of any of the foregoing has or may have any claim arising from or relating to the terms of any
Transaction Document, neither the Trustee, such Holder or such Affiliate shall commence any lawsuit
or otherwise seek to impose any liability whatsoever in respect thereof against Tracinda or its
shareholder (hereinafter for purposes of this Section 12.14 only, collectively referred to as
“Tracinda”). Tracinda shall not have any liability whatsoever with respect to any Transaction
Document or any matters relating to or arising from any Transaction Document. None of the Trustee,
the Collateral Agent, any Holder or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall assert or permit
any Person claiming through any of them to assert a claim or impose any liability against Tracinda
as to any matter or thing arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or any alleged
breach or default of any Transaction Document by the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any
Affiliate thereof. Tracinda is not a party to any Transaction Document and is not liable for any
alleged breach or default of any Transaction Document by the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or
any Affiliate of any thereof. The terms of this Section 12.14 shall control, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary appearing in any Transaction Document.

     SECTION 12.15 ADDITIONAL WAIVER.

     The Company hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted under Nev. Rev. Stat. 40.495,
any rights arising out of Nev. Rev. Stat. 40.430.

1. INTEREST

     MGM MIRAGE, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal
amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above and shall pay Additional Interest, if any,
payable pursuant to the relevant Registration Rights Agreement.

     The Company shall pay interest (including Additional Interest, if any) semi-annually in
arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year commencing on November 15, 2009. Interest on the
Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has
been paid, from May 19, 2009 with respect to this Note. Interest shall be computed on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT

     The Company shall pay interest (except defaulted interest but including Additional Interest,
if any) on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the May
1 or November 1 immediately preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are cancelled after
the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to the
Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts. However, all payments in respect of this Note (including principal, premium, if any,
interest and Additional Interest, if any) must be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to the accounts specified by the Holder hereof.

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR

     Initially, U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Trustee”) shall act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the
Holders. The Company or any domestically organized Subsidiary may act as Paying Agent or
Registrar.

4. INDENTURE AND SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

     The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 19, 2009 (the “Indenture”),
among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of these Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and, if the Notes are registered under the Securities Act, those made
part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined
herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. These Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and, if applicable, the TIA, for a statement of
those terms.

     These Notes are secured senior obligations of the Company and is one of the Notes referred to
in the Indenture. These Notes include the Initial Notes and any Exchange Notes issued in exchange
for such Initial Notes pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and the Indenture. The
Initial Notes and such Exchange Notes are treated as a single class of Notes under the Indenture.

A-6

 

     The Subsidiary Guarantors have, jointly and severally, unconditionally guaranteed the
Guaranteed Obligations on a senior basis pursuant to Article X of the Indenture, with the
Subsidiary Guarantees of Bellagio, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and of The Mirage Casino-Hotel, a
Nevada corporation, secured by the Collateral.

5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION; MANDATORY DISPOSITION PURSUANT TO GAMING LAWS

     The Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes, in accordance with the provisions of
Article III of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes
redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Interest, if any, to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of
Holders on the relevant Record Date prior to the Redemption Date to receive interest due on the
relevant Interest Payment Date.

     “Applicable Premium” means with respect to any Note on any Redemption Date, as determined by
the Company, the excess of:

     (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on the Note (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the Redemption Date),
discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis using a discount rate equal to the
Treasury Rate as of such Redemption Date plus 50 basis points; over

     (b) the principal amount of the Note.

     The rights of each Holder or beneficial owner of these Notes are subject to the Gaming Laws
and requirements of the Gaming Authorities. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture,
if any Gaming Authority requires that a Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes of a Holder must be
licensed, qualified or found suitable under any Gaming Law, such Holder or such beneficial owner
shall apply for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability, as the case may be, within
the required time period. If such person fails to apply or become licensed or qualified or is not
found suitable (in each case, a “failure of compliance”), the Company shall have the right, at its
option, (i) to require such Holder or owner to dispose of such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s Notes
within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Company’s election or such earlier date as may be
requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority, or (ii) to redeem such Notes, which Redemption
Date may be less than 30 days following the notice of redemption if so requested or prescribed by
the Gaming Authority, at a redemption price equal to (a) the lesser of (1) the Holder’s cost, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the
finding of unsuitability or failure to comply and (2) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the date of the
finding of unsuitability or failure to comply or (b) such other amount as may be required by
applicable Gaming Laws or by order of any Gaming Authority. The Company shall notify the Trustee
in writing of any such failure of compliance or redemption as soon as practicable. The Company
shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses any such Holder or beneficial owner may incur in
connection with its application for a license, qualification or finding of suitability.
Immediately upon the imposition of a requirement to dispose of the Notes by a Gaming Authority,
such Holder or beneficial owner shall, to the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, have no
further right (i) to exercise, directly or indirectly, through any trustee, nominee or any other
person or entity, any right conferred by the Notes, or (ii) to receive any remuneration in any form
with respect to the Notes from the Company or the Trustee, except the redemption price.

6. NOTICES OF REDEMPTION

     Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company, or at the Company’s written request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, not less than 20 Business Days and not
more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to the Holders of the Notes to be redeemed upon the
terms provided in the Indenture; provided that a notice of redemption may be mailed more than 60
days prior to a Redemption Date if such notice is issued in connection with the satisfaction and
discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Indenture or Covenant Defeasance or
Legal Defeasance pursuant to Section 8.04 of the Indenture. If the Company is purchasing or
redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased or redeemed
(a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the
requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed or (b) on
a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or, to the extent that selection on a pro rata basis is
not practicable, by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of the
Depositary. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on such Notes or portions
of them called for redemption.

7. PURCHASE UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL

     If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently mailed a
redemption notice with respect to all the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture, the
Company will make an offer to purchase all of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

8. NON-COLLATERAL ASSET SALES

     In the event of a Non-Collateral Asset Sale, the Company may be required to make an offer to

amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, in

the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

10. EVENTS OF LOSS

     In the event of an Event of Loss, the Company may be required to make an offer to purchase all
or a portion of the Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of such
Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in the Indenture.

A-8

 

any transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate transfer documents and to pay any taxes required by law or permitted by
the Indenture. The Registrar shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to
exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days before the
day of any selection of Notes for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of
selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in
whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to
register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Regular Record Date and the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date.

12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS

     The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

13. UNCLAIMED MONEY

     If money for the payment of principal or interest in respect of these Notes remains unclaimed
for two years, the Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request, or if then
held by the Company or a domestic Subsidiary, shall be discharged from such trust (unless an
abandoned property law designates another Person for payment thereof). After any such payment,
Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability
of the Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Company or such permitted
Subsidiary as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

14. DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE

     Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may
terminate some or all of its obligations under the Indenture with respect to these Notes if, among
other things, the Company deposits with the Trustee cash in Dollars, Government Securities, or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest due on the Notes at the Stated Maturity or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of
such principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes.

15. AMENDMENT, WAIVER

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under
the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions, with
certain exceptions as therein provided, permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all such Notes, to waive compliance by the
Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past Defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. The Indenture also permits certain other amendments, modifications or waivers
thereof only with the consent of all affected Holders, while certain other amendments or
modifications may be made without the consent of any Holders.

     A consent to a supplemental indenture or waiver by a Holder shall bind such Holder and every
subsequent Holder of the applicable Note or portion thereof that evidences the same Indebtedness as
the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.
After

A-9

 

a supplemental indenture or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. The
Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be
taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately
preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated
proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent
previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders
after such record date.

16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

     Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default (other than certain
bankruptcy Events of Default) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal
amount of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount
of the Notes (or specified amount) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (and premium, if
payable) shall become immediately due and payable.

     Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the other Transaction Documents except as
provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the other
Transaction Documents unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain
limitations, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to
the Transaction Documents. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing
Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it
determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

17. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY

     Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Registrar or any other
agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of
Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

18. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND STOCKHOLDERS

     No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor or any of their parent companies shall have any liability for any Obligations of the
Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or
the Collateral Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such Obligations
or their creation. Each Holder by accepting the Notes waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be
effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the
Commission that such waiver is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

A-10

 

19. GOVERNING LAW

     THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEVADA BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF
ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

20. AUTHENTICATION

     This Note and the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed hereon shall not be valid until an authorized
signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Note.

21. ABBREVIATIONS

     Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM
(=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of
survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors
Act).

22. CUSIP NUMBERS

     Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the
Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as
contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers placed thereon.

a copy of the Indenture which has in it the text of this Note in larger type. Requests may be made

     The Company shall pay interest (including Additional Interest, if any) semi-annually in
arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year commencing on November 15, 2009. Interest on the
Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has
been paid, from May 19, 2009 with respect to this Note. Interest shall be computed on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT

     The Company shall pay interest (except defaulted interest but including Additional Interest,
if any) on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the May
1 or November 1 immediately preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are cancelled after
the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to the
Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts. However, all payments in respect of this Note (including principal, premium, if any,
interest and Additional Interest, if any) must be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to the accounts specified by the Holder hereof.

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR

     Initially, U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Trustee”) shall act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the
Holders. The Company or any domestically organized Subsidiary may act as Paying Agent or
Registrar.

4. INDENTURE AND SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

     The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 19, 2009 (the “Indenture”),
among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of these Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and, if the Notes are registered under the Securities Act, those made
part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined
herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. These Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and, if applicable, the TIA, for a statement of
those terms.

     These Notes are secured senior obligations of the Company and is one of the Notes referred to
in the Indenture. These Notes include the Initial Notes and any Exchange Notes issued in exchange
for such Initial Notes pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and the Indenture. The
Initial Notes and such Exchange Notes are treated as a single class of Notes under the Indenture.

A-6

 

     The Subsidiary Guarantors have, jointly and severally, unconditionally guaranteed the
Guaranteed Obligations on a senior basis pursuant to Article X of the Indenture, with the
Subsidiary Guarantees of Bellagio, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and of The Mirage Casino-Hotel, a
Nevada corporation, secured by the Collateral.

5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION; MANDATORY DISPOSITION PURSUANT TO GAMING LAWS

     Prior to May 15, 2013, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes, in accordance with
the provisions of this Article III, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of
Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record
date prior to the Redemption Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

     After May 15, 2013, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes, on not less than 30
nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof
at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount, the
“Redemption Price”), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning of the years indicated below:

	 	 	 
	 	 	Redemption
	Year	 	Price
	2013
	 	105.563%
	2014
	 	102.781%
	2015 and thereafter
	 	100%

     The amount payable to the holder of a Note shall be equal to the applicable redemption price
of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to
the rights of Holders on the relevant record date prior to the Redemption Date to receive interest
due on the relevant interest payment date).

     “Applicable Premium” means with respect to any Note on any Redemption Date, as determined by
the Company, the excess of:

     (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on the Note (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the Redemption Date),
discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis using a discount rate equal to the
Treasury Rate as of such Redemption Date plus 50 basis points; over

     (b) the principal amount of the Note.

     The rights of each Holder or beneficial owner of these Notes are subject to the Gaming Laws
and requirements of the Gaming Authorities. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture,
if any Gaming Authority requires that a Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes of a Holder must be
licensed, qualified or found suitable under any Gaming Law, such Holder or such beneficial owner
shall apply for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability, as the case may be, within
the required time period. If such person fails to apply or become licensed or qualified or is not
found suitable (in each case, a “failure of compliance”), the Company shall have the right, at its
option, (i) to require such Holder or owner to dispose of such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s Notes
within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Company’s election or such earlier date as may be
requested or prescribed by

A-7

 

such Gaming Authority, or (ii) to redeem such Notes, which Redemption
Date may be less than 30 days following the notice of redemption if so requested or prescribed by
the Gaming Authority, at a redemption price equal to (a) the lesser of (1) the Holder’s cost, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the finding of unsuitability or
failure to comply and (2) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the date of the finding of unsuitability or
failure to comply or (b) such other amount as may be required by applicable Gaming Laws or by order
of any Gaming Authority. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such failure of
compliance or redemption as soon as practicable. The Company shall not be responsible for any
costs or expenses any such Holder or beneficial owner may incur in connection with its application
for a license, qualification or finding of suitability. Immediately upon the imposition of a
requirement to dispose of the Notes by a Gaming Authority, such Holder or beneficial owner shall,
to the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws, have no further right (i) to exercise, directly
or indirectly, through any trustee, nominee or any other person or entity, any right conferred by
the Notes, or (ii) to receive any remuneration in any form with respect to the Notes from the
Company or the Trustee, except the redemption price.

6. NOTICES OF REDEMPTION

     Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company, or at the Company’s written request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, not less than 20 Business Days and not
more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to the Holders of the Notes to be redeemed upon the
terms provided in the Indenture; provided that a notice of redemption may be mailed more than 60
days prior to a Redemption Date if such notice is issued in connection with the satisfaction and
discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Indenture or Covenant Defeasance or
Legal Defeasance pursuant to Section 8.04 of the Indenture. If the Company is purchasing or
redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased or redeemed
(a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the
requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed or (b) on
a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or, to the extent that selection on a pro rata basis is
not practicable, by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of the
Depositary. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on such Notes or portions
of them called for redemption.

7. PURCHASE UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL

     If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently mailed a
redemption notice with respect to all the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture, the
Company will make an offer to purchase all of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

8. NON-COLLATERAL ASSET SALES

     In the event of a Non-Collateral Asset Sale, the Company may be required to make an offer to

things, to furnish appropriate transfer documents and to pay any taxes required by law or permitted
by the Indenture. The Registrar shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or
to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days before
the day of any selection of Notes for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of
selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in
whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to
register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Regular Record Date and the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date.

12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS

     The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

13. UNCLAIMED MONEY

     If money for the payment of principal or interest in respect of these Notes remains unclaimed
for two years, the Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request, or if then
held by the Company or a domestic Subsidiary, shall be discharged from such trust (unless an
abandoned property law designates another Person for payment thereof). After any such payment,
Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability
of the Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Company or such permitted
Subsidiary as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

14. DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE

     Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may
terminate some or all of its obligations under the Indenture with respect to these Notes if, among
other things, the Company deposits with the Trustee cash in Dollars, Government Securities, or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest due on the Notes

A-9

 

at the Stated Maturity or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of
such principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes.

15. AMENDMENT, WAIVER

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under
the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions, with
certain exceptions as therein provided, permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all such Notes, to waive compliance by the
Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past Defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. The Indenture also permits certain other amendments, modifications or waivers
thereof only with the consent of all affected Holders, while certain other amendments or
modifications may be made without the consent of any Holders.

     A consent to a supplemental indenture or waiver by a Holder shall bind such Holder and every
subsequent Holder of the applicable Note or portion thereof that evidences the same Indebtedness as
the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.
After a supplemental indenture or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. The
Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or
permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding
the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their
duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to
revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons
continue to be Holders after such record date.

16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

     Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default (other than certain
bankruptcy Events of Default) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal
amount of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount
of the Notes (or specified amount) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (and premium, if
payable) shall become immediately due and payable.

     Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the other Transaction Documents except as
provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the other
Transaction Documents unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain
limitations, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to
the Transaction Documents. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing
Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it
determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

A-10

 

17. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY

     Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Registrar or any other
agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of
Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

18. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND STOCKHOLDERS

     No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor or any of their parent companies shall have any liability for any Obligations of the
Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or
the Collateral Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such Obligations
or their creation. Each Holder by accepting the Notes waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be
effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the
Commission that such waiver is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

19. GOVERNING LAW

     THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEVADA BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT
THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

20. AUTHENTICATION

     This Note and the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed hereon shall not be valid until an authorized
signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Note.

21. ABBREVIATIONS

     Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM
(=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of
survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors
Act).

22. CUSIP NUMBERS

     Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the
Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as
contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers placed thereon.

EXECUTION VERSION

SECURITY AGREEMENT

     This SECURITY AGREEMENT dated as of May 19, 2009, is made by BELLAGIO, LLC, a Nevada limited
liability company (“Bellagio”) and THE MIRAGE CASINO-HOTEL, a Nevada corporation (“TMCH”) and each
of them, jointly and severally, as Grantors (each a “Grantor” and collectively, “Grantors”) and
U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee and collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties (as defined below) under the Indenture (as defined below) (in such capacity, together with
its successors in such capacity, “Collateral Agent”), with reference to the following facts:

RECITALS

     A. MGM MIRAGE, a Delaware corporation (“Issuer”) concurrently entered into that certain
Indenture dated as of May 19, 2009 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the “Indenture”), among Issuer, the guarantors party thereto (including Grantors) and the
Trustee, pursuant to which Issuer issued those certain 10.375 % senior secured notes due 2014 and
those certain 11.125 % senior secured notes due 2017 (collectively, the “Notes”).

     B. The holders of the Notes (collectively, the “Noteholders”) are willing to purchase the
Notes for the purposes of, among other things, providing Issuer and its subsidiaries funds to repay
existing indebtedness and provide working capital.

     C. Each Grantor is a subsidiary of Issuer, and will derive substantial benefit from the
purchase of the Notes by the Noteholders.

     D. As a condition precedent to purchasing the Notes, the Noteholders require that each Grantor
enter into this Agreement and grant the security interests to Collateral Agent as herein provided
as security for Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture.

     E. Pursuant to the 13% Secured Notes Indenture, the holders of the 13% Secured Notes issued
under the 13% Secured Notes Indenture (the “13% Secured Notes Secured Parties”) purchased the 13%
Secured Notes of the Issuer upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.

     F. The 13% Secured Notes Indenture restricts the ability of each Grantor to grant a security
interest in the Collateral to secure the Notes Obligations, unless such Grantor grants an equal and
ratable security interest in the Collateral to secure the Obligations under the 13% Secured Notes
and 13% Secured Notes Indenture (the “13% Secured Notes Obligations”).

Agent pursuant to this Agreement and other Permitted Liens, Grantors own each item of the
Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens except for Permitted Liens.

   (b) Perfected Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (i)
constitute valid security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured
Obligations, perfected to the extent perfection may be achieved by filing UCC1 financing
statements or by other action required to be taken by the terms of this Agreement and
enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantors,
except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by
equitable principles related to the granting of specific performance and other equitable
remedies as a matter of judicial discretion; and (ii) are prior to all other Liens on the
Collateral.

   (c) Securities Accounts. Schedule 4(c) sets forth a complete list of all
securities accounts maintained by each Grantor on the date hereof, except for securities
accounts which have an account balance in the aggregate not exceeding $1,000,000, and

been released in accordance with Section:

-7-

 

   (a) Delivery of Collateral Perfected by Possession. With respect to any Collateral
consisting of securities, instruments or the like, as to which Collateral Agent’s security
interest need be perfected by, or the priority thereof need be assured by, possession of
such Collateral, each Grantor will promptly deliver possession of any such Collateral with a
fair value or face value equal to or exceeding $1,000,000 individually or $5,000,000 in the
aggregate in pledge to Collateral Agent or as directed by the Collateral
Agent, and each Grantor will take all actions necessary to vest such possession in
Collateral Agent or any agent of the Collateral Agent as directed by the Collateral Agent;

   (b) Securities Accounts. If any Grantor maintains any securities accounts in which
balances exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for any period of thirty consecutive days, such
Grantor will deliver a duly executed control agreement with respect to such Collateral in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent;

   (c) Motor Vehicles. If any Grantor at any time has motor vehicles or other Collateral
subject to certificates of title having an aggregate value exceeding $1,000,000, such
Grantor will cause certificates of title evidencing such excess amount of Collateral to
reflect the Lien in favor of Collateral Agent and notify Collateral Agent of such
circumstance;

   (d) Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor shall notify Collateral Agent of any material
commercial tort claim asserted by it in any judicial or arbitration proceeding within thirty
days of the assertion thereof and unless consented otherwise by Collateral Agent, such
Grantor shall enter into such supplemental documentation as Collateral Agent may reasonably
request to perfect a Lien in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, in such commercial tort claim;

   (e) Taxes. Each Grantor will pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes, charges, Liens and
assessments against the Collateral, except such as are expressly permitted by the Indenture
or are timely contested in good faith, and upon its failure to pay or so contest such taxes,
charges, Liens and assessments, Collateral Agent at its option, following written notice to
such Grantor of its intention to do so, may pay any of them, and Collateral Agent shall be
the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the amount necessary to discharge the
same;

   (f) Compliance with Law. The Collateral will not be knowingly used for any unlawful
purpose or in violation of any Law, nor used in any way that will void or impair any
insurance required to be carried in connection therewith;

   (g) Preservation. Each Grantor will, to the extent consistent with good business
practice, keep the Collateral in reasonably good repair, working order and condition, and
from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and
improvements thereto and, as appropriate and applicable, will otherwise deal with the
Collateral in all such ways as are considered good practice by owners of like property, and
will take all commercially reasonable steps to preserve and protect the Collateral;

-8-

 

   (h) Insurance. Until the release of the Liens or the Collateral as provided in this
Agreement, each Grantor will maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral with carriers
against such risks, in such amounts and with such deductibles as each Grantor determines to
be reasonably prudent (as determined by the board of directors in good faith) and consistent
with the past practices of such Grantor, and name Collateral Agent as an additional insured
or, with respect to casualty insurance, loss payee , as the case may be,
with losses in excess of $1,000,000 payable jointly to such Grantor and Collateral
Agent (unless a Default has occurred and is then continuing, in which case all losses are
payable solely to Collateral Agent), with no recourse against Trustee or Collateral Agent
for the payment of premiums, deductibles, commissions or club calls, and will furnish copies
of such insurance policies or certificates to Collateral Agent promptly upon request
therefor;

   (i) Notification of Damage. Each Grantor will promptly notify Collateral Agent in
writing in the event of any substantial or material damage to the Collateral from any source
whatsoever, and, except for the disposition of collections and other proceeds of the
Collateral permitted by Section 6 hereof, such Grantor will not remove or permit to
be removed any material part of the Collateral from its place of business without the prior
written consent of Collateral Agent, except for such items of the Collateral as are removed
in the ordinary course of business or in connection with any transaction or disposition
otherwise permitted by the Indenture; and

   (j) Changes of Name or Address. In the event any Grantor changes its name, its address
or its jurisdiction of organization as are set forth herein or in the Indenture, such
Grantor will notify Collateral Agent of such name and/or address change promptly, but in any
event within 5 business days and such Grantor shall take all action necessary to maintain
the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Secured Parties in the Collateral.

     6. Collateral Agent’s Rights Regarding Collateral. Subject to the limitations set
forth below Collateral Agent may, subject to Gaming Laws, to the extent it may be necessary or
desirable to protect the security hereunder, but Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to, enter
upon any premises on which Collateral is situated during regular office business hours and upon
reasonable notice and examine the same. Collateral Agent may perform such Collateral inspections
no more than twice in each calendar year, unless the applicable Grantor provides consent for
additional inspections after written request from Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without notice or
demand and at the expense of Grantors, Collateral Agent may, subject to Gaming Laws, to the extent
it may be necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but Collateral Agent shall not
be obligated to, enter upon any premises on which Collateral is situated at any time without notice
and examine the same. Upon any Event of Default, Collateral Agent may, subject to Gaming Laws, to
the extent it may be necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but Collateral Agent
shall not be obligated to, perform any obligation of Grantors under this Agreement or any
obligation of any other Person under the Note Documents, the 13% Secured Notes or 13% Secured Notes
Indenture. Each Grantor shall maintain books and records pertaining to the Collateral in such
detail, form and scope as is consistent with such Grantor’s past practices. Each Grantor shall at
any time at Collateral Agent’s request mark the Collateral

-9-

 

and/or such Grantor’s ledger cards,
books of account and other records relating to the Collateral with appropriate notations reasonably
satisfactory to Collateral Agent disclosing that they are subject to Collateral Agent’s security
interests. Prior to an Event of Default, subject to the limitation set forth below, at any time
during regular office business hours and upon reasonable notice to the applicable Grantor,
Collateral Agent shall have reasonable access to and the right to audit any and all of each
Grantor’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral, and to confirm and verify the value of
the Collateral and to do whatever else Collateral Agent reasonably may
deem necessary or desirable to protect its interests. Collateral Agent may perform such audit
of the each Grantor’s books and records twice in each calendar year, unless such Grantor provides
consent to additional audits after written request from Collateral Agent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at all times on
reasonable notice to Grantors, Collateral Agent shall have full access to and the right to audit
any and all of each Grantor’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral, and to confirm and
verify the value of the Collateral and to do whatever else Collateral Agent reasonably may deem
necessary or desirable to protect its interests; provided, however, that any such action which
involves communicating with customers of any Grantor shall be carried out by Collateral Agent
through such Grantor’s independent auditors unless Collateral Agent shall then have the right
directly to notify obligors on the Collateral as provided in Section 10. Collateral Agent
shall be under no duty or obligation whatsoever to take any action to preserve any rights of or
against any prior or other parties in connection with the Collateral, to exercise any voting rights
or managerial rights with respect to any Collateral, whether or not an Event of Default shall have
occurred, or to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of non-performance,
protests, notices of protests, notices of dishonor or notices of any other nature whatsoever in
connection with the Collateral or the Secured Obligations. Collateral Agent shall be under no duty
or obligation whatsoever to take any action to protect or preserve the Collateral or any rights of
any Grantor therein, or to make collections or enforce payment thereon, or to participate in any
foreclosure or other proceeding in connection therewith.

     7. Collections on the Collateral. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, and until Collateral Agent suspends such rights, each Grantor will be entitled
to receive the benefit of all cash dividends, interest and other payments made upon or with respect
to the Collateral by such Grantor. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, at the election of Collateral Agent or the Noteholders holding a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Indenture to suspend
such rights, (i) all rights of each Grantor to receive all cash dividends, interest and other
payments made upon or with respect to the Collateral will cease, and such cash dividends, interest
and other payments will be paid to Collateral Agent; (ii) all rights of the Grantors to exercise
such voting or other consensual rights shall cease, and all such rights shall become vested in
Collateral Agent which, to the extent permitted by law, will have the sole right to exercise such
rights; and (iii) Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. Any remittance received by any Grantor from any Person shall be
presumed to relate to the Collateral and to be subject to Collateral Agent’s security interests.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent shall have
the right at all times to receive, receipt for, endorse, assign, deposit and deliver, in the name
of Collateral Agent or in the name of any Grantor, any and all checks, notes, drafts and other
instruments for the payment of money constituting proceeds of or otherwise relating to

-10-

 

the Collateral; and such Grantor hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to affix, by facsimile signature or
otherwise, the general or special endorsement of it, in such manner as Collateral Agent shall deem
advisable, to any such instrument in the event the same has been delivered to or obtained by
Collateral Agent without appropriate endorsement, and Collateral Agent and any collecting bank are
hereby authorized to consider such endorsement to be a sufficient, valid and effective endorsement
by such Grantor, to the same extent as though it were manually executed by the duly authorized
officer of such Grantor, regardless of by whom or under what circumstances or by what authority
such facsimile signature or other endorsement actually is affixed, without
duty of inquiry or responsibility as to such matters, and such Grantor hereby expressly waives
demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest or dishonor and all other notices of every kind
and nature with respect to any such instrument.

     8. Possession of Collateral by Collateral Agent. All the Collateral now, heretofore
or hereafter delivered to Collateral Agent shall be held by Collateral Agent in its possession,
custody and control. Nothing herein shall obligate Collateral Agent to invest any Collateral or
obtain any particular return thereon. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, whenever any of the Collateral is in Collateral Agent’s possession, custody or control,
Collateral Agent may use, operate and consume the Collateral, whether for the purpose of preserving
and/or protecting the Collateral, or for the purpose of performing any of Grantors’ obligations
with respect thereto, or otherwise. Collateral Agent may at any time deliver or redeliver the
Collateral or any part thereof to Grantors, and the receipt of any of the same by Grantors shall be
complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and Collateral Agent thereafter
shall be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor. So long as Collateral Agent
exercises reasonable care with respect to any Collateral in its possession, custody or control,
Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any loss of or damage to such Collateral, and in no
event shall Collateral Agent have liability for any diminution in value of Collateral occasioned by
economic or market conditions or events. Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care within the meaning of the preceding sentence if the Collateral in the possession,
custody or control of Collateral Agent is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which
Collateral Agent accords its own property, it being understood that Collateral Agent shall not have
any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions,
exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not
Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary
steps to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral.

     Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements
or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise
perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral
in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it
accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the
value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency
or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith. Collateral Agent shall
not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the
validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether
impaired by operation of law or by reason of any of any action or omission to act on its part
hereunder, except

-11-

 

to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct on the part of Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the
Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of
Grantors to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges,
assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty to act outside of the United States in respect of any
Collateral located in the jurisdiction other than the United States.

     Collateral Agent may act and rely and shall be protected in acting and relying in good faith
on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any counsel, accountant, appraiser or
other expert or adviser, whether retained or employed by the any Grantor or by the Collateral, in
relation to any matter arising in the administration of the Note Documents.

     The rights, privileges, protections immunities and indemnities contained in the Indenture
shall apply to Collateral Agent’s acceptance and administration of the Indenture and the other Note
Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party and shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference therein.

     9. Events of Default. There shall be an Event of Default hereunder upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Indenture.

     10. Rights Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, Collateral Agent shall have, in any jurisdiction where enforcement hereof is
sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies that Collateral Agent may have under
applicable Law or in equity or under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all rights set
forth in Section 6 hereof), the 13% Secured Notes, the 13% Secured Notes Indenture or under
any other Note Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
Code as enacted in any jurisdiction, and, in addition, the following rights and remedies, all of
which may be exercised with or without notice to Grantors (except to the extent notice is otherwise
required to be given pursuant to the fourth paragraph this Section 10) and without
affecting the Obligations of Grantors hereunder or under any other Note Document, the 13% Secured
Notes or the 13% Secured Notes Indenture or the enforceability of the Liens and security interests
created hereby:

   (a) to foreclose the Liens and security interests created hereunder or under any other
agreement relating to any Collateral by any available judicial procedure or without judicial
process;

   (b) to enter any premises where any Collateral may be located for the purpose of
securing, protecting, inventorying, appraising, inspecting, repairing, preserving, storing,
preparing, processing, taking possession of or removing the same;

   (c) to sell, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral or any part thereof,
either at public or private sale or at any broker’s board, in lot or in bulk, for cash, on
credit or otherwise, with or without representations or warranties and upon such terms as
shall be acceptable to Collateral Agent;

-12-

 

   (d) to notify obligors on the Collateral that the Collateral has been assigned to
Collateral Agent and that all payments thereon are to be made directly and exclusively to
Collateral Agent;

   (e) to collect by legal proceedings or otherwise all dividends, distributions,
interest, principal or other sums now or hereafter payable upon or on account of the
Collateral;

   (f) to cause the Collateral to be registered in the name of Collateral Agent, as legal
owner;

   (g) to enter into any extension, reorganization, deposit, merger or consolidation
agreement, or any other agreement relating to or affecting the Collateral, and in connection
therewith Collateral Agent may deposit or surrender control of the Collateral and/or accept
other Property in exchange for the Collateral;

   (h) to settle, compromise or release, on terms acceptable to Collateral Agent, in whole
or in part, any amounts owing on the Collateral and/or any disputes with respect thereto;

   (i) to extend the time of payment, make allowances and adjustments and issue credits in
connection with the Collateral in the name of Collateral Agent or in the name of Grantors;

   (j) to enforce payment and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any or
all of the Collateral and take or bring, in the name of Collateral Agent or in the name of
Grantors, any and all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by Collateral Agent
necessary or desirable to effect collection of or to realize upon the Collateral, including
any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure thereof or thereon in accordance with applicable
Law, and each Grantor specifically consents to any nonjudicial foreclosure of any or all of
the Collateral or any other action taken by Collateral Agent which may release any obligor
from personal liability on any of the Collateral, and each Grantor waives to the extent
permitted by Law, any right not expressly provided for in this Agreement to receive notice
of any public or private judicial or nonjudicial sale or foreclosure of any security or any
of the Collateral; and any money or other property received by Collateral Agent in exchange
for or on account of the Collateral, whether representing collections or proceeds of
Collateral, and whether resulting from voluntary payments or foreclosure proceedings or
other legal action taken by Collateral Agent or any Grantor may be applied by Collateral
Agent without notice to such Grantor to the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as
Collateral Agent in its sole discretion shall determine;

   (k) to insure, process and preserve the Collateral;

   (l) to exercise all rights, remedies, powers or privileges provided under any of the
Note Documents;

-13-

 

   (m) to remove, from any premises where the same may be located, the Collateral and any
and all documents, instruments, files and records, and any receptacles and cabinets
containing the same, relating to the Collateral, and Collateral Agent may, at the cost and
expense of Grantors, use such of its supplies, equipment, facilities and space at its places
of business as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to properly administer, process,
store, control, prepare for sale or disposition and/or sell or dispose of the portion of the
Collateral owned by any Grantor or to properly administer and control the handling of
collections and realizations thereon, and Collateral Agent shall be deemed to
have a rent-free tenancy of any premises of any Grantor for such purposes and for such
periods of time as reasonably required by Collateral Agent;

   (n) to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Grantor and notify postal
authorities to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as Collateral Agent
may designate; provided that Collateral Agent agrees that it will promptly deliver over to
such Grantor such mail as does not relate to the Collateral; and

   (o) to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies of an owner of the
Collateral; all at Collateral Agent’s sole option and as Collateral Agent in its sole
discretion may deem advisable. Any Grantor will, at Collateral Agent’s written request,
assemble the Collateral (or any part thereof, as requested) and make it available to
Collateral Agent at places which Collateral Agent may designate, whether at the premises of
such Grantor or elsewhere (provided, however, that such Grantor shall not be required to
deliver Collateral consisting of gaming devices to a location in a jurisdiction where
possession of such items is unlawful), and will make available to Collateral Agent, free of
cost, all premises, equipment and facilities of such Grantor for the purpose of Collateral
Agent’s taking possession of the Collateral or storing same or removing or putting the
Collateral in salable form or selling or disposing of same.

     Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent also
shall have the right, without notice or demand, either in person, by agent or by a receiver to be
appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Secured
Obligations, to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof and to collect and receive
the rents, issues, profits, income and proceeds thereof. Taking possession of the Collateral shall
not cure or waive any Event of Default or notice thereof or invalidate any act done pursuant to
such notice. The rights, remedies and powers of any receiver appointed by a court shall be as
ordered by said court.

     Any public or private sale or other disposition of the Collateral may be held at any office of
Collateral Agent, or at a Grantor’s place of business, or at any other place permitted by
applicable Law, and without the necessity of the Collateral being within the view of prospective
purchasers. With respect to any Collateral located within or subject to the jurisdiction of the
Gaming Authority, Collateral Agent may also request, in connection therewith, the Gaming Authority
to petition such local judicial or administrative tribunal or other authority as may be deemed
appropriate by Collateral Agent for the appointment of a supervisor or similar official to conduct
the normal gaming activities on the premises following the appointment of a receiver or similar
remedy. Collateral Agent may direct the order and manner of sale of the Collateral, or

-14-

 

portions thereof, as it in its sole and absolute discretion may determine, and each Grantor expressly waives
any right to direct the order and manner of sale of any Collateral. Collateral Agent or any Person
on Collateral Agent’s behalf may bid and purchase at any such sale or other disposition. The net
cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, lease or other disposition of the
Collateral shall be applied, first, to the expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements)
of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale or lease, selling, leasing,
collecting, liquidating and the like; and thereafter pro rata to the satisfaction of the Secured
Obligations (i) as among the Noteholders, pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Indenture and (ii) as
among the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties, as set forth in the 13% Secured Notes Indenture. In making the determination and allocations required by this Section 10, the
Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the 13% Secured Notes Secured
Parties or the trustee for the 13% Secured Notes as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest
and other amounts outstanding with respect to the 13% Secured Notes Obligations and the Collateral
Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such
information. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 10
shall be final, and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the
13% Secured Notes Secured Parties or trustee for the 13% Secured Notes of any amounts distributed
to the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties. Grantors and any other Person then obligated therefor
shall pay to Collateral Agent on written demand any deficiency with regard thereto which may remain
after such sale, disposition, collection or liquidation of the Collateral.

     Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market, Collateral Agent will send or otherwise make available to
Grantors, reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time on or
after which any private sale thereof is to be made. The requirement of sending reasonable notice
conclusively shall be met if such notice is mailed, first class mail, postage prepaid, to each
Grantor at its addresses designated below, at least ten days before the date of the sale, each
Grantor expressly waives any right to receive notice of any public or private sale of any
Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations extent as expressly provided for in this
paragraph.

     With respect to any Collateral consisting of securities, partnership interests, joint venture
interests, Investments or the like, and whether or not any of such Collateral has been effectively
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or other applicable Laws, Collateral Agent may, in its
sole and absolute discretion, sell all or any part of such Collateral at private sale in such
manner and under such circumstances as Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order
that the sale may be lawfully conducted. Without limiting the foregoing, Collateral Agent may (i)
approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers, and (ii) restrict the
prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
such Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
resale thereof. In the event that any such Collateral is sold at private sale, each Grantor agrees
that if such Collateral is sold for a price which Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be
reasonable under the circumstances then existing, then

     (a) the sale shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable in all respects,

-15-

 

   (b) Grantors shall not be entitled to a credit against the Secured Obligations in an
amount in excess of the purchase price, and

   (c) Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability or responsibility to Grantors in
connection therewith, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price
might have been realized at a public sale. Each Grantor recognizes that a ready market may
not exist for such Collateral if it is not regularly traded on a recognized securities
exchange, and that a sale by Collateral Agent of any such Collateral for an amount
substantially less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of the issuer’s assets
minus liabilities may be commercially reasonable in view of the difficulties that may be
encountered in attempting to sell a large amount of such Collateral or Collateral that is
privately traded.

     Upon consummation of any sale of Collateral hereunder, Collateral Agent shall have the right
to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold.
Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold absolutely free from any
claim or right upon the part of any Grantor or any other Person, and each Grantor hereby waives (to
the extent permitted by applicable Laws) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which it now
has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of Law or statute now existing or
hereafter enacted. If the sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for
future delivery, Collateral Agent shall not be required to apply any portion of the sale price to
the Secured Obligations until such amount actually is received by Collateral Agent, and any
Collateral so sold may be retained by Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid in full by the
purchaser or purchasers thereof.

     Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall
fail to pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of any such failure, the Collateral may be
sold again.

     11. Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably nominates and appoints
Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact for the following purposes:

   (a) following Collateral Agent’s request thereof and any Grantor’s failure to perform
within the time frame permitted by this Agreement or any other Collateral Document, to do
all acts and things which Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to perfect and
continue perfected the security interests created by this Agreement or any other Collateral
Document and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to
preserve, process, develop, maintain and protect the Collateral or Mortgaged Property;

   (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to do any
and every act which any Grantor is obligated to do under this Agreement or any other
Collateral Document, at the expense of such Grantor and without any obligation to do so;

   (c) following Collateral Agent’s request thereof and any Grantor’s failure to perform
within the time frame permitted by this Agreement, to prepare, sign, file and/or

-16-

 

record, for such Grantor, in the name of such Grantor, any financing statement, application for
registration, or like paper, and to take any other action deemed by Collateral Agent
necessary or desirable in order to perfect or maintain perfected the security interests
granted hereby or any other Collateral Document; and

   (d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to execute
any and all papers and instruments and do all other things necessary or desirable to
preserve and protect the Collateral or Mortgaged Property and to protect Collateral Agent’s
security interests therein or liens thereon; provided, however, that Collateral Agent shall
be under no obligation whatsoever to take any of the foregoing actions, and,
absent bad faith or actual malice, Collateral Agent shall have no liability or
responsibility for any act taken or omission with respect thereto.

     12. Costs and Expenses. Each Grantor agrees to pay to Collateral Agent all costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Collateral
Agent in the enforcement or attempted enforcement of this Agreement or any other Collateral
Document, whether or not an action is filed in connection therewith, and in connection with any
waiver or amendment of any term or provision hereof. All advances, charges, costs and expenses,
including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Collateral Agent in exercising any
right, privilege, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or any other Collateral Document
(including, without limitation, the right to perform any Secured Obligation of any Grantor under
the Note Documents, 13% Secured Notes or 13% Secured Notes Indenture), or in the enforcement or
attempted enforcement thereof, shall be secured hereby and shall become a part of the Secured
Obligations and shall be paid to Collateral Agent by Grantors, promptly following written demand.

     13. Statute of Limitations and Other Laws. Until the Notes Obligations, other than
contingent indemnification obligations, shall have been paid and performed in full, the power of
sale and all other rights, privileges, powers and remedies granted to Collateral Agent hereunder
shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time
irrespective of the fact that any of the Secured Obligations may have become barred by any statute
of limitations. Each Grantor expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation,
and any and all Laws providing for exemption of property from execution or for valuation and
appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

     14. Other Agreements. Nothing herein shall in any way modify or limit the effect of
terms or conditions set forth in any other security or other agreement executed by any Grantor or
in connection with the Secured Obligations, but each and every term and condition hereof shall be
in addition thereto. All provisions contained in the Indenture or any other Note Document that
apply to Note Documents generally are fully applicable to this Agreement and are incorporated
herein by this reference.

     15. Understandings With Respect to Waivers and Consents. Each Grantor warrants and
agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein are made after consultation with
legal counsel and with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the
understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or
otherwise adversely affect rights which any Grantor otherwise may have against Collateral Agent

-17-

 

or
others, or against Collateral. If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be
contrary to any applicable Law or public policy, such waivers and consents shall be effective to
the maximum extent permitted by Law.

     16. Termination. Upon payment of all Notes Obligations in full or upon satisfaction
of the terms and conditions of Section 11.04(a) of the Indenture, this Agreement shall terminate,
and Collateral Agent shall forthwith take all necessary action (at the request of and the expense
of Grantors) to release and reconvey the Collateral to Grantors, and shall deliver the Collateral
in its possession to Grantors including, without limitation, the executing and delivering releases
and satisfactions wherever required in form reasonably satisfactory to Grantors and
Collateral Agent, and the 13% Secured Notes Obligations shall no longer be secured hereby.
This Agreement shall terminate with respect to the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties in the event
the 13% Secured Notes Obligations are no longer required to be secured hereby as a result of the
release of the Lien on the Collateral under the 13% Secured Notes Indenture.

     17. Release of Collateral. The Liens on the Collateral under this Agreement shall be
released upon the terms and conditions of Sections 11.04 and 11.05 of the Indenture. Any release
of Collateral shall comply with Section 11.08 of the Indenture.

     18. Certain Regulatory Requirements. At any time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall take all lawful action that the Collateral
Agent may reasonably request in the exercise of its rights and remedies, which include the right to
require any Grantor to transfer or assign any Gaming Collateral held by it to any party or parties
to facilitate an arms’ length public or private sale for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. In
furtherance of this right, each Grantor shall (i) cooperate fully with the Collateral Agent in
obtaining all approvals and consents from the Gaming Authority and each other Governmental
Authority and from any third parties that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to
accomplish any transfer or assignment of the Gaming Collateral, and (ii) prepare, execute and file
with the Gaming Authority and any other Governmental Authority any application, request for
consent, certificate or instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to
accomplish any such transfer or assignment. If any Grantor fails to execute such applications,
requests for consent, certificates or instruments, the clerk of any court that has jurisdiction
over the Note Documents may, upon an ex parte request by the Collateral Agent, execute and file the
same on behalf of such Grantor for purposes of placing such request before the Gaming Authority,
except to the extent as would not be permissible under applicable Law.

     To enforce the provisions of Section 10, the Collateral Agent is authorized to request
the consent or approval of the Gaming Authority or any other Governmental Authority to a voluntary
or an involuntary transfer of control of any Grantor or the voluntary or involuntary assignment of
any Gaming Collateral held by such Grantor. In connection with the exercise of its remedies under
this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may obtain the appointment of a trustee or receiver to assume
control of any Grantor, subject to any required prior approval of the Gaming Authority or any other
Governmental Authority. Such trustee or receiver shall have all rights and powers provided to it
by law or by court order or provided to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement.

-18-

 

          19. Acknowledgement by Grantors. Each Grantor acknowledges that the approval of the
Gaming Authority and each other appropriate Governmental Authority to the assignment of the Gaming
Collateral is integral to the Collateral Agent’s realization of the value of the Collateral, that
there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by any Grantor to comply with the provisions of
Section 18 and that such failure could not be adequately compensable in damages.
Therefore, each Grantor agrees that the provisions of Section 18 may be specifically
enforced, without any requirement to post bond (such rights being fully waived by each Grantor) and
without regard to the adequacy of any remedies available at law (the defense of the adequacy of
remedies at law being fully waived by each Grantor).

          20. Waivers and Consents. Each Grantor acknowledges that the Liens created or granted
herein will or may secure obligations of Persons other than Grantors and, in full recognition of
that fact, each Grantor consents and agrees that Collateral Agent may, at any time and from time to
time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or security hereof:

     (a) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate, or otherwise change the time
for payment or the terms of the Notes Obligations or any part thereof, including any
increase or decrease of the rate(s) of interest thereon;

     (b) supplement, modify, amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval
or consent with respect to, the Notes Obligations or any part thereof or any of the Notes
Documents or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default,
remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder;

     (c) accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for or
relative to any of the Note Documents or the Notes Obligations or any part thereof;

     (d) accept partial payments on the Notes Obligations;

     (e) receive and hold additional security or guaranties for the Notes Obligations or any
part thereof;

     (f) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, subordinate, exchange, substitute,
transfer and enforce any security or guaranties, and apply any security and direct the order
or manner of sale thereof as Collateral Agent in its sole and absolute discretion may
determine;

     (g) release any Person or any guarantor from any personal liability with respect to the
Notes Obligations or any part thereof;

     (h) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Collateral Agent or by operation of
applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Notes Obligations and any security or
guaranty therefor in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security and bid and
purchase at any sale; and

-19-

 

     (i) consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the
corporate or other existence of Issuer or any other Person, and correspondingly restructure
the Notes Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not
affect the liability of any Grantor or the continuing existence of any Lien hereunder, under
any other Note Document to which such Grantor is a party or the enforceability hereof or
thereof with respect to all or any part of the Notes Obligations;

provided, however, that the requisite written consent of the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties
pursuant to the 13% Secured Notes Indenture shall be required with respect to any release, waiver,
amendment or other modification of this Agreement that would materially and adversely affect the
rights of the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties to equally and ratably share in the security
provided for herein or any other Collateral Document with respect to the Collateral or the
Mortgaged Property. Except as set forth in this Section 20, the 13% Secured Notes Secured
Parties shall not have any rights to approve any release, waiver, amendment, modification, charge,
discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement or any other Collateral Document.

          Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Collateral Agent
may enforce this Agreement or any other Collateral Document independently of any other remedy or
security Collateral Agent at any time may have or hold in connection with the Secured Obligations,
and it shall not be necessary for Collateral Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Grantor or any
other Person or to proceed upon or against and/or exhaust any other security or remedy before
proceeding to enforce this Agreement or any other Collateral Document. Each Grantor expressly
waives any right to require Collateral Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Grantor, or any
other Person or to proceed against any other Person or any collateral provided by any other Person,
and agrees that Collateral Agent may proceed against any Person and/or collateral in such order as
it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Collateral Agent may file a separate
action or actions against any Grantor, whether or not action is brought or prosecuted with respect
to any other security or against Issuer or any other Person, or whether or not any other Person is
joined in any such action or actions. Each Grantor agrees that Collateral Agent and Issuer and any
Person may deal with each other in connection with the Secured Obligations or otherwise, or alter
any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing between any of them, in any manner
whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the validity of, or the pledge or security
interest granted or created by, this Agreement. Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder or any other
Collateral Document shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Agreement or
any other Collateral Document shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on
account of the Secured Obligations which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by
Collateral Agent upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any other Person or otherwise
(and whether by litigation, settlement, demand or otherwise), all as though such amount had not
been paid. Each Grantor agrees that the Liens created or granted herein and any other Collateral
Document and the enforceability of this Agreement and any other Collateral Document at all times
shall remain effective to secure the full amount of all the Secured Obligations including, without
limitation, the amount of all loans and interest thereon at the rates provided for in the
Indenture, the Notes, the 13% Secured Notes Indenture and the 13% Secured Notes, even though the
Secured Obligations, including any part thereof or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be
or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against Issuer or any other Person
and whether or not Issuer or any

-20-

 

other Person shall have any personal liability with respect thereto. Each Grantor expressly
waives any and all defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of

     (a) any disability or other defense of Issuer or any other Person with respect to the
Secured Obligations,

     (b) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Secured
Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure or subordination
of priority of any security for the Secured Obligations,

     (c) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of Issuer (other than by
reason of the full payment and performance of all Secured Obligations),

     (d) any failure of Collateral Agent to marshal assets in favor of Grantors or any other
Person,

     (e) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of Collateral Agent to
give notice of sale or other disposition of collateral to Grantors or any other Person or
any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of
collateral,

     (f) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Collateral Document,
any failure of Collateral Agent to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale
or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Secured Obligation,
including, without limitation, any failure of Collateral Agent to conduct a commercially
reasonable sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Secured
Obligation,

     (g) any act or omission of Collateral Agent or others that directly or indirectly
results in or aids the discharge or release of Issuer or any other Person or the Secured
Obligations or any other security or guaranty therefor by operation of Law or otherwise,

     (h) any Law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be
larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which
reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation,

     (i) any failure of Collateral Agent to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or
other proceeding with respect to any Person,

     (j) the election by Collateral Agent, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of
the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy
Code,

     (k) any extension of credit or the grant of any Lien under Section 364 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code,

-21-

 

     (l) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code,

     (m) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection
in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person,

     (n) the avoidance of any Lien in favor of Collateral Agent for any reason,

     (o) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt,
liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including any
discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the Secured Obligations (or
any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding,

     (p) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the benefits of any form of one-action
rule under any applicable Law, or

     (q) any action taken by Collateral Agent that is authorized by this Section 20
or any other provision of any Notes Document.

          Until all of the Notes Obligations have been paid and performed in full, Grantors shall have
no right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity, and each Grantor expressly
waives any right to enforce any remedy that Collateral Agent now has or hereafter may have against
any other Person and waives the benefit of, or any right to participate in, any other security now
or hereafter held by Collateral Agent. Each Grantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of
an election of remedies by Collateral Agent, even though that election of remedies, such as a
nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Secured Obligations has destroyed
Grantors’ rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal. Each Grantor expressly
waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance,
notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all
other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Secured Obligations,
and all notices of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document or of the
existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Secured Obligations.

          The obligations of the Collateral Agent to the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties hereunder and
under the other Collateral Documents shall be limited solely to (i) holding the Collateral and the
Mortgaged Property for the benefit of the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties for so long as (A) any
Notes Obligations remain outstanding and (B) any 13% Secured Notes Obligations are secured by such
Collateral and the Mortgaged Property and (ii) distributing any proceeds received by the Collateral
Agent from the sale, collection or realization of the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property to the
13% Secured Notes Secured Parties in respect of the 13% Secured Notes Obligations in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. The 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties shall not be entitled to
exercise (or direct the Collateral Agent to exercise) any rights or remedies hereunder with respect
to the 13% Secured Notes Obligations, including without limitation the right to enforce the
security interest in the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property, request any action, institute
proceedings, give any instructions, make any election, give any notice to account debtors, make
collections, sell or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral and the Mortgaged
Property or execute any amendment, supplement, or acknowledgment

-22-

 

 hereof or of any other Collateral Document. This Agreement shall not create any
liability of the Collateral Agent or the Noteholders to any of the 13% Secured Notes Secured
Parties by reason of actions taken with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of the
security interest on the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property, actions with respect to the
occurrence of an Event of Default, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release, or
depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property or
action with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Secured Obligations
from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party or the valuation, use or protection of the
Collateral and the Mortgaged Property. By acceptance of the benefits under this Agreement and the
other Collateral Documents, the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties will be deemed to have
acknowledged and agreed that the provisions of the preceding sentence are intended to induce the
Noteholders to permit such persons to be Secured Parties under this Agreement and certain of the
other Collateral Documents and are being relied upon by the Noteholders as consideration therefor.
The Collateral Agent shall not be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance by the
Issuer or any other obligor of the 13% Secured Notes Obligations.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall or shall be
construed to (i) result in the security interest in the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property
securing the 13% Secured Notes Obligations less than equally and ratably with the Notes Obligations
pursuant to the 13% Secured Notes Indenture to the extent required or (ii) modify or affect the
rights of the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties to receive the pro rata share specified in
Section 10 of any proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral and the Mortgaged
Property.

          The parties hereto agree that the 13% Secured Notes Obligations and the Notes Obligations are,
and will be, equally and ratably secured with each other by the Liens on the Collateral and the
Mortgaged Property, and that it is their intention to give full effect to the equal and ratable
provisions of the 13% Secured Notes Indenture, as in effect on the date hereof. To the extent that
the rights and benefits herein or in any other Collateral Document conferred on the 13% Secured
Notes Secured Parties shall be held to exceed the rights and benefits required so to be conferred
by such provisions, such rights and benefits shall be limited so as to provide such 13% Secured
Notes Secured Parties only those rights and benefits that are required by such provisions. Any and
all rights not herein expressly given to the 13% Secured Notes Secured Parties are expressly
reserved to the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders.

          21. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR AND COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE
ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, ANY NOTE DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS

FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE
AFORESAID COURTS. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS

CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE DOCUMENTS THAT SERVICE OF
PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE
