parties is amended in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof, then any references herein to the agreement or terms and provisions of such agreement shall
be to such agreement or terms or provisions as so amended.

     2. Deferral and Subordination of Lakes Obligations.

          2.1 Deferral and Accrual of Lakes Obligations. Without limiting Section 2.3 below, Lakes
agrees that any payment of Lakes Obligations (a) not permitted to be paid pursuant to the FF&E
Facilities or (b) the payment of which will result in or cause an Event of Default under the FF&E
Facilities shall be deferred and shall accrue and may be paid only at such time as the payment of
such amounts so deferred would otherwise be permitted pursuant to the provisions of the FF&E
Facilities and would not result or cause an Event of Default under the FF&E Facilities, and Lakes
will not ask, demand, sue for, take or receive from the Authority, by set-off or in any other
manner, direct or indirect payment (whether in cash or property), any amounts so deferred or any
transfer of property in payment of or as additional security for any amounts so deferred. This
Section 2.1 shall not limit Lakes’ rights with respect to any payment of Lakes Obligations not
required to be so deferred, and Lakes may take any action with respect to any such payment so long
as such action is not prohibited by this Agreement and the FF&E Facilities.

          2.2 Subordination to FF&E Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of the Lakes
Transaction Documents to the contrary, all Lakes Obligations shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Section 2, to the Discharge of
all FF&E Secured Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the FF&E Agent agrees that, subject to
the provisions of Section 2.3, at any time prior to the Discharge of the FF&E Secured Obligations,
the Authority may make, and Lakes may receive and retain, payments with respect to the Lakes
Obligations, so long as such payments are permitted to be paid pursuant to, and will not result in
or cause an Event of Default under, the FF&E Facilities.

          2.3 Default on FF&E Secured Obligations. In the event that any Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing with respect to the FF&E Facilities, or if any payment of Lakes Obligations would
create an Event of Default under the FF&E Facilities, unless and until the prior Discharge of all
FF&E Secured Obligations, the right of Lakes to receive any payments or other distributions with
respect to Lakes Obligations shall be deferred until such Event of Default is no longer continuing
or the making of such payment will not result in an Event of Default, as the case may be.

          2.4 Deferral Not a Default. Lakes agrees that any deferral pursuant to this Section 2 of the
payment of any Lakes Obligations shall not constitute a default under any Lakes Transaction
Document so long as the FF&E Facilities have not been accelerated. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
this Agreement shall not limit, restrict or otherwise impair any right of Lakes to terminate the
Development and Management Agreement or any other Lakes Transaction Document in accordance with the
terms thereof other than as a result of any such non-payment under the Lakes Notes.

          2.5 Continuing Subordination. The subordination effected by this Section 2

5

 

is a continuing subordination and may not be modified or terminated by Lakes until the
prior Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations.

          2.6 Subordination of the Lakes Obligations upon Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Without
limiting the application of Section 6, in the event of any distribution, division or application,
partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part
of the assets of the Authority or the proceeds thereof to creditors of the Authority or upon any
Indebtedness or other Obligation of the Authority, by reason of the liquidation, dissolution or
other winding up, partial or complete, of the Authority, or any Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding, then and in any such event:

               2.6.1 The holders of FF&E Secured Obligations shall be entitled to receive payment in full in
cash of all such FF&E Secured Obligations before Lakes shall be entitled to receive any payment or
other distributions on, or with respect to, the Lakes Obligations;

               2.6.2 Any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or
other property, which but for these provisions would be payable or deliverable upon or with respect
to the Lakes Obligations shall instead, subject to the rights under the Bond Intercreditor
Agreement of the holders of the First Lien Secured Obligations or any trustee or agent for such
holders, be paid or delivered directly to the FF&E Agent for application on the FF&E Secured
Obligations, whether then due or not due, until such FF&E Secured Obligations shall have first been
Discharged;

               2.6.3 Subject to the condition subsequent that the First Lien Secured Obligations shall have
been Discharged, (a) Lakes hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the FF&E Agent, and appoints
the FF&E Agent as attorney-in-fact, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such payment or
distribution in respect of the Lakes Obligations and give acquittance therefor, and to file and
vote claims in respect of the Lakes Obligations (in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise) and take
such other actions, in the FF&E Agent’s own name or otherwise, as the FF&E Agent may deem necessary
or advisable for the enforcement of these provisions, and (b) Lakes shall duly and promptly take
such action as may be reasonably requested by the FF&E Agent to assist in the collection of the
Lakes Obligations for the account of any holder of the FF&E Secured Obligations, and to file
appropriate proofs of claim with respect to the Lakes Obligations and to vote the same, and to
execute and deliver to the FF&E Agent on demand such powers of attorney, proofs of claim,
assignments of claim or other instruments as may be reasonably requested by the FF&E Agent to
enable the FF&E Agent or any other holder of FF&E Secured Obligations to enforce any and all claims
upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations and to collect and receive any and all payments or
distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time upon or with respect to the Lakes
Obligations. In addition, Lakes shall not take any action (whether oral, written or otherwise) in
contravention of any action of the FF&E Agent duly taken and permitted hereunder. Such appointment as attorney-in-fact pursuant to this Section 2.6.3
is irrevocable and coupled with an interest until payment in full in cash and complete performance
of all the FF&E Secured Obligations. The FF&E Agent may appoint a substitute attorney-in-fact.
Lakes ratifies all actions reasonably taken by the attorney-in-fact following the Discharge of the
First Lien Secured Obligations but, nevertheless, if the FF&E Agent requests, Lakes will
specifically ratify any such action taken by

6

 

the attorney-in-fact by executing and delivering to
the attorney-in-fact or to any entity designated by the attorney-in-fact all documents necessary to
effect such ratification; and

               2.6.4 Following any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings or Event of Default under the FF&E
Facilities, Lakes will, subject to the rights under the Bond Intercreditor Agreement of the holders
of the First Lien Secured Obligations or any trustee or agent for such holders, forthwith deliver
any direct or indirect payment thereafter made to it upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations
prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations to the FF&E Agent in precisely the form
received (except for the endorsement or assignment by Lakes where necessary) for application on the
FF&E Secured Obligations, whether then due or not due. Until so delivered, the payment or
distribution shall, subject to the rights under the Bond Intercreditor Agreement of the holders of
the First Lien Secured Obligations or any trustee or agent for such holders, be held in trust by
Lakes as property of the holders of the FF&E Secured Obligations. In the event of the failure by
Lakes to make any such endorsement or assignment, following the Discharge of the First Lien Secured
Obligations, the FF&E Agent, or any of its officers or employees, are hereby irrevocably authorized
to make the same.

          2.7 Judgment Liens. In the event Lakes becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of any
assets of the Authority as a result of its enforcement of its rights as a creditor with respect to
the Lakes Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all
purposes (including in relation to the FF&E Secured Obligations).

          2.8 When Proceeds Must be Paid Over. Any payment received by Lakes (including, without
limitation, payments and prepayments made for application against the Lakes Obligations) prior to
the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations when such payment is not expressly permitted by the
terms of this Agreement or the FF&E Facilities shall, subject to the rights under the Bond
Intercreditor Agreement of the holders of the First Lien Secured Obligations or any trustee or
agent for such holders, be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of FF&E Secured Obligations
and shall, following the Discharge of the First Lien Secured Obligations, be turned over to the
FF&E Agent promptly upon the request of the FF&E Agent.

          2.9 Subrogation. With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property
or other assets that Lakes pays over to the FF&E Agent or any of the FF&E Secured Parties under the
terms of this Agreement, Lakes shall be subrogated to the rights of the FF&E Agent or such FF&E
Secured Parties; provided, however, that, Lakes hereby agrees not to assert or enforce any such
rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of
all FF&E Secured Obligations has occurred. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any
payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by Lakes that are paid over to
the FF&E Agent or any FF&E Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the
Lakes Obligations.

     3. FF&E Collateral.

          3.1 Separate Collateral. The FF&E Collateral secures only the FF&E Secured Obligations and
not any of the Lakes Obligations, and, as provided in Section 7.7, Lakes shall not have any Liens
thereon or any security interest therein.

          3.2 Confirmation of Liens. Lakes hereby confirms and agrees that the FF&E Secured Obligations
shall be secured by a first priority lien on, and security interest in, the FF&E Collateral,
notwithstanding (a) the availability of any other collateral, (b) the execution, delivery,
recording, filing or perfection of any of the FF&E Security Documents, or the order of such
execution, delivery, recording, filing or perfection or the priorities which would otherwise result
therefrom, (c) the fact that any Lien or security interest created by the FF&E Security Documents,
or any claim with respect thereto, is or may be subordinated, avoided or disallowed in whole or in
part under any Bankruptcy Law, or (d) any other matter whatsoever. All provisions of this
Agreement, including but not limited to, all matters relating to the creation, validity,
perfection, priority, subordination and release of the Liens and security interests intended to be
created by any FF&E Security Document and all provisions regarding the allocation and priority of
payments with respect to any FF&E Financing Agreement shall survive any Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding and be fully enforceable by and against each FF&E Secured Party during any such
proceeding. In the event of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, Lakes further confirms and
agrees that the FF&E Secured Obligations due and outstanding under and with respect to the FF&E
Financing Agreements shall include all principal, additional advances permitted thereunder,
interest, default interest, London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) breakage and swap breakage, post
petition interest and all other amounts due thereunder, for periods before and for periods after
the commencement of any such proceedings, even if the claim for such amounts is disallowed pursuant
to applicable law, and all proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the FF&E Collateral shall
be paid to the FF&E Secured Parties in the order and priority provided for in this Section 3
notwithstanding the disallowance of any such claim or the invalidity or subordination of any Lien
on or security interest in the FF&E Collateral under applicable law.

     4. Rights and Limitation of Actions With Respect to FF&E Collateral.

          4.1 Rights and Limitations Applicable to Lakes.

respect of any FF&E Collateral;
	 
	 	(g)	 	otherwise enforce any remedy available upon default for the

rights vis a vis creditors of the Authority other than the FF&E Secured Parties.

          4.2 Rights and Limitations Applicable to the FF&E Secured Parties.

               4.2.1 At all times until Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, the FF&E Agent at the
direction of the Required Financing Parties shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and
enforce the terms of the FF&E Security Documents with respect to all FF&E Collateral and to
exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to its discretion and exercise
of its business judgment, including, without limitation, the exclusive right to take the actions
enumerated in clauses (a) through (i) of Section 4.1.1. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the FF&E Facilities, the
FF&E Agent shall have the right to (i) enter the Project’s real property for the purpose of
inspecting, maintaining or protecting the FF&E Collateral and (ii) remove the FF&E Collateral
(including all records and other documentation relating thereto) and take such additional steps as
are reasonably necessary or appropriate to prepare such FF&E Collateral for a foreclosure sale or
other exercise of remedies with respect to such FF&E Collateral under the FF&E Financing
Agreements.

          In connection therewith, provided that each of the FF&E Secured Parties acts in a commercially
reasonable manner and otherwise in accordance with applicable law, Lakes waives any and all rights
to affect the method or challenge the appropriateness of any action by the FF&E Secured Parties and
hereby consents to each of the FF&E Secured Parties exercising or not exercising such rights and
remedies.

          4.3 Notification of Events of Default. Each party hereto hereby agrees, for the benefit of the
other party, to use its best efforts to provide written notice to the other party within ten (10)
Business Days after obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence or assertion of an Event of
Default under their respective Facilities. No party shall have any liability to the other for
failing to provide any such notice.

          4.4 Certain Waivers by Lakes. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Lakes waives and agrees
not to assert or enforce, at any time prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations:

	 	(a)	 	any right of subrogation to the rights or interests of the FF&E Secured Parties
or any claim or defense based upon impairment of any such right of subrogation;
	 
	 	(b)	 	any right of marshalling accorded to a junior lienholder, as against a priority
lienholder, under equitable principles; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	any statutory right of appraisal or valuation accorded to a junior lienholder
in a proceeding to foreclose a senior Lien;

in each case, that otherwise may be enforceable in respect of any Lien securing any of the Lakes
Obligations as against the FF&E Secured Parties.

     5. Rights and Limitations with Respect to Amendments, Waivers and Other Actions

          5.1 Rights and Limitations Applicable to FF&E Secured Parties.

               5.1.1 The FF&E Secured Parties may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of

	 	(e)	 	take or fail to take any first priority Lien or any other collateral security

               5.2.2 To the maximum extent permitted by law, Lakes waives any claim it may have against any
FF&E Secured Party with respect to or arising out of any action or

11

 

failure to act or any error of
judgment or negligence (but not gross negligence, willful misconduct or any breach of this
Agreement) on the part of any FF&E Secured Party or their respective directors, officers, employees
or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies in respect of the FF&E Secured
Obligations or under any FF&E Security Document or any transaction relating to the FF&E Collateral.
Neither any FF&E Secured Party nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents
will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the FF&E Collateral or for any
delay in doing so, except to the extent arising out of breach of this Agreement, or will be under
any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any FF&E Collateral upon the request of the
Authority or upon the request of Lakes or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever
with regard to the FF&E Collateral or any part thereof.

               5.2.3 Each party (subject to the terms and conditions of its respective Facility) shall be
responsible for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Authority and its
Affiliates and all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any FF&E Secured
Obligations. Except as set forth in Section 4.3, no FF&E Secured Party shall have any duty to
advise Lakes of information regarding such condition or circumstances or as to any other matter. If
either party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any
such information to the other party, it shall be under no obligation to provide any similar
information on any subsequent occasion, to provide any additional information, or undertake any
investigation, or to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial
finance practice, it wishes to maintain confidential.

Agreement to the contrary, Lakes shall be entitled, at any time and at its sole discretion, to
initiate or join as a petitioning creditor in an involuntary Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding
against the Authority; provided, however, that, until the prior Discharge of all FF&E Secured
Obligations, Lakes shall not, without the prior written consent of the FF&E Agent, acting at the
direction of the FF&E Financing Parties, initiate or join as a petitioning creditor in an
involuntary Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Authority.

          6.2 Certain Agreements and Consents by Lakes.

               6.2.1 At no time prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations shall Lakes:

	 	(a)	 	request judicial relief in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or in any
other court, that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit the exercise or
enforcement of any right or remedy otherwise available to the holders of FF&E
Secured Obligations that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien on
the FF&E Collateral securing the FF&E Secured Obligations;
	 
	 	(b)	 	oppose or otherwise contest any motion for relief from the automatic stay or
from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement of Liens on the FF&E
Collateral securing the FF&E Secured Obligations made by any

12

 

	 	 	 	holder of FF&E Secured Obligations in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;

	 	(c)	 	oppose or otherwise contest any exercise by any holder of FF&E Secured
Obligations of the right to credit bid FF&E Secured Obligations at any sale in
foreclosure of any Lien on the FF&E Collateral securing the FF&E
Secured Obligations; or
	 
	 	(d)	 	oppose or otherwise contest any other request for judicial relief made in any
court by any holder of FF&E Secured Obligations relating to the enforcement of any
Lien on the FF&E Collateral securing the FF&E Secured Obligations.

               6.2.2 If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding prior to the Discharge of all FF&E
Secured Obligations, the FF&E Secured Parties:

	 	(a)	 	consent to any order for use of cash collateral for payment of (i)
expenses reasonably necessary or appropriate for the conduct of the Project
or for the preservation of the FF&E Collateral, or (ii) administrative
expenses arising in connection with the Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding;
	 
	 	(b)	 	consent to any order granting any priming Lien, replacement Lien, cash
payment or other relief on account of FF&E Secured Obligations as adequate
protection (or its equivalent) for the interests of the FF&E Secured Parties
in property subject to the Liens on the FF&E Collateral securing the FF&E
Secured Obligations in connection with any order for use of cash collateral;
or
	 
	 	(c)	 	consent to any order relating to any sale of the FF&E Collateral and
providing, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that all
such Liens shall attach to the proceeds of the sale, then, Lakes will not oppose or otherwise contest the entry of such order.

               6.2.3 Lakes will not assert or enforce, at any time prior to the Discharge of the FF&E Secured
Obligations, any claim under §506(c) of the United States Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Liens
on the FF&E Collateral securing the FF&E Secured Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or
disposing of any FF&E Collateral.

               6.2.4 If, for purposes of valuation of the secured claims of the FF&E Secured Parties in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the FF&E Secured Parties determine, and the FF&E Agent or any
other FF&E Secured Party notifies Lakes, that the FF&E Collateral should be valued as of any
particular time in the period from the date of commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding to the date of confirmation of any plan of reorganization or other dispositive
restructuring plan therein, then Lakes shall not oppose or otherwise contest that the date as of
which such secured claims should be valued is the date

13

 

chosen by the FF&E Secured Parties. Lakes shall not have the right to assert the lack of adequate protection of their Liens or the collateral
securing the Lakes Obligations as a basis for opposing a motion or other relief sought in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and approved by the FF&E Secured Parties.

     7. Representations and Warranties. Lakes represents, warrants and covenants to the FF&E Agent
on behalf of the FF&E Secured Parties as follows:

          7.1 Organization. It is duly organized and is validly existing under the laws of the
jurisdiction under which it was organized with full power to execute, deliver, and perform this
Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

          7.2 Authorization. All actions necessary to authorize its execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement have been duly taken, and all such actions continue in full force and effect as
of the date hereof.

          7.3 Binding Agreement. It has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and this Agreement
constitutes the legal, valid, and binding agreement of Lakes enforceable in accordance with its
terms and subject to (a) Bankruptcy Laws, and (b) principles of equity, which may apply regardless
of whether a proceeding is brought in law or in equity.

          7.4 No Consent Required. To the best of its knowledge, no consent of any other party and no
consent, license, approval, or authorization of, or exemption by, or registration or declaration or
filing with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency is required in connection with its
execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement or consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

          7.5 No Conflict. None of the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will (a) violate or conflict with
any provision of the organizational or governing documents of Lakes; (b) to the best of its
knowledge, violate, conflict with, or result in the breach or termination of, or otherwise give any
other contracting party the right to terminate, or constitute (or with notice or lapse of time, or
both, would constitute) a
default under the terms of any contract, mortgage, lease, bond, indenture, agreement, or other
instrument to which Lakes is a party or to which any of its properties are subject; (c) to the best
of its knowledge, result in the creation of any Lien, charge, encumbrance, mortgage, lease, claim,
security interest, or other right or interest upon its properties or assets pursuant to the terms
of any such contract, mortgage, lease, bond, indenture, agreement, franchise, or other instrument;
(d) violate any judgment, order, injunction, decree, or award of any court, arbitrator,
administrative agency, or governmental or regulatory body of which it has knowledge against, or
binding upon Lakes or upon any of its securities, properties, assets, or business; or (e) to the
best of its knowledge, constitute a violation by Lakes of any statute, law, or regulation that is
applicable to Lakes.

          7.6 Default. There exist no conditions that would constitute a default (or an event which with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) by Lakes under this Agreement.

14

 

          7.7 No Lien. Lakes (i) acknowledges that it does not have any Lien that presently attaches
in, to or on the FF&E Collateral, and (ii) accordingly agrees that there are no presently effective
filings or recordings including UCC financing statements that perfect any Lien in its favor on the
FF&E Collateral. Lakes further agrees that no security interest granted by the Authority to Lakes
shall attach to the FF&E Collateral unless and until (x) the FF&E Facilities (and any renewal,
refunding, replacement, or refinancing thereof) shall be Discharged, or (y) with respect to any
item of FF&E Collateral, such item otherwise shall be released and no longer constitute FF&E
Collateral. Lakes further agrees that any filings and recordings in favor of Lakes reflecting any
security interest in or on the FF&E Collateral presently have no force or effect with respect to
the FF&E Collateral and will have no force or effect unless, until and to the extent that Lakes’
security interest so attaches.

to permitted payments of the Lakes Obligations) and the parties hereto hereby agree to execute and
deliver an amendment to this Agreement with such new lender, or an agent or trustee on its behalf,
to make such Person a party hereunder.

               8.13.2 Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.13.2, no amendment, modification or

Transaction Document assigned to a third party shall include the following language:

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest
granted to Lakes pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or
remedy by Lakes hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and
Subordination Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2008 (as amended, restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor and
Subordination Agreement”), between Bank of Utah, as FF&E Agent, and Lakes
KAR-Shingle Springs, LLC. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the
Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the
Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement shall govern and control (all defined
terms having the meanings ascribed thereto in the Intercreditor and Subordination
Agreement).”

          8.15 Reinstatement. If the payment of any amount applied to the FF&E Secured Obligations is
later avoided, or rescinded (including by settlement of any claim for avoidance or rescission) or
otherwise set aside, then:

	 	(a)	 	to the fullest extent lawful, all claims for the payment of such amount as FF&E
Secured Obligations and, to the extent securing such claims, all such Liens on the
FF&E Collateral under the FF&E Security Documents will be reinstated and entitled
to the benefits hereof, and

	 	(b)	 	if a Discharge of FF&E Secured Obligations became effective prior to such
reinstatement, all obligations of Lakes that were terminated as a result of such
Discharge of FF&E Secured Obligations shall be concurrently reinstated to the
extent such claims and Liens under the FF&E Security Documents are reinstated,
beginning on such date but prospectively only (and not retroactively), as though no
FF&E Secured Obligations or Liens under the FF&E Security Documents had been
outstanding at any time prior to such date and will remain effective until the
claims for such amount are paid in full in cash.

          8.16 Attorneys’ Fees. Unless paid by the Authority, the prevailing party in any dispute or
controversy hereunder shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees.
