broker and Purchaser's independent insurance broker shall jointly select a third

the lowest, shall be binding and conclusive on Seller and Purchaser.

required to be disclosed therein in accordance with Section 2.22(a)(vii)), with
Seller, Parent or any such officer, director or Affiliate.

        4.08 Release. Parent and Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts
to have the Company released from any liability under any guarantees by or from
the Company of the obligations of Parent, Seller or any of their Affiliates
(other than the Company) (collectively, the "Existing Guarantees") and to have
the Existing Guarantees terminated prior to the Closing Date. Section 4.08 of
the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of the Existing Guarantees.

        4.09 Fulfillment of Conditions. Seller will take all commercially
reasonable steps necessary or desirable and proceed diligently and in good faith
to satisfy each condition to the obligations of Purchaser contained in this
Agreement and will not, and will not permit the Company to, take or fail to take
any action that could reasonably be expected to result in the nonfulfillment of
any such condition.

        4.10 Non-competition. (a) For a period of five years from the Closing
Date, Parent and Seller shall not, and shall each cause their Subsidiaries,
successor and assigns, not to, directly or indirectly conduct in Nevada a
business which is the same as the Business as conducted on the Closing Date,
including without limitation as a shareholder, consultant, partner, owner,
lender (other than in the ordinary course of business), principal, member,
officer, employee or otherwise, of any entity that is conducting such business
in the State of Nevada.

               (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, however: (a) nothing contained
in this Agreement shall prohibit Seller or Parent from purchasing and holding an
investment in Purchaser, nor purchasing and holding as an investment not more
than 5% of any class of the issued and outstanding and publicly traded (on a
recognized national or regional securities exchange or in the over-the-counter
market) security of any corporation, partnership or other business entity that
conducts a business in competition with Purchaser or the Business and (b) the
continued placement by Bally in the ordinary course of business as conducted on
the date hereof of gaming devices or games by Bally under participation
agreements or daily fee arrangements, or in wide area progressive networks under
authority of the Nevada slot route operator's license held by Bally shall not be
considered to be competitive with Purchaser so long as Bally performs the
customary activities of: (i) a distributor or manufacturer of gaming devices or
(ii) operator of a wide area

                                       23
<PAGE>   25

progressive network. No Person will be deemed to be conducting a business in
competition with Purchaser or the Business if such business constitutes less
than 10% of such Person's revenues.

               (c) Seller and Parent are agreeing to these provisions in
consideration for the Purchase Price set forth in Section 1.02 hereof.

               (d) Seller and Parent each agrees that any claim for breach of
this Section 4.10 against either of them may be brought by Purchaser or any
Affiliate of Purchaser in lieu of Purchaser.

               (e) Seller and Parent each acknowledges and agrees that the
covenants contained in this Section 4.10 are fair and reasonable and of a
special unique character which gives them peculiar value and exist in order to
protect Purchaser's investment in the Business purchased under this Agreement
and that Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement without such
covenants being made. However, if any such covenants shall be determined by any
court to be invalid by reason of their duration or geographical scope, or both,
as the case may be, shall be considered to be reduced to the longest duration or
greatest geographic scope, or both, which will cure such invalidity. Seller and
Parent each further acknowledge that monetary damages alone will not be an
adequate remedy for any breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section
4.10, and accordingly, they each expressly agree that, in addition to all other
remedies which Purchaser or its Affiliates have, they shall be entitled to
injunctive relief, both preliminary and permanent, in any court of competent
jurisdiction.

before the Closing Date, at the request of Purchaser, Seller shall (and shall
cause Seller's representatives to) take such actions as Purchaser may reasonably
request in the preparation of, or delivery of, documents necessary for the
purpose of assisting Purchaser in obtaining Purchaser's financing; provided,
however, that Seller assumes no obligation for, or liability with respect to,
any documentation submitted by Purchaser or its Affiliates to the Securities
Exchange Commission, or to third parties with respect to Purchaser's financing.

        4.13 Seller's Bank Accounts. The existing bank accounts of the Company

September 1, 2000 and ending on the Determination Date. Seller shall count down

Company collections received on and after the Cut-off Time. Adjusted Working
Capital shall not be less than zero on the Closing Date. The calculation of Cash
on Hand and of Adjusted Working Capital and post closing payments, if any,
required to be paid by Seller with respect to Cash on Hand and Adjusted Working
Capital shall be made as provided in Section 8.04.

        4.15 Insurance and Insurance Benefits. (a) On or after the Closing Date,
Parent and/or Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any and all proceeds received
under those insurance policies maintained by Seller and/or Parent relating to

                                       25
<PAGE>   27

instruments are necessary to enable Purchaser to receive the insurance proceeds
arising from such losses. If subsequent to the Closing, any insurance plan
associated with or providing benefits under the Benefit Plans described in
Section 2.15(a) of the Disclosure Schedule maintained by or on behalf of the
Company by Parent or Seller prior to the Closing Date is audited and, as a
result thereof, there is an assessment or additional premium assessment, then
Seller shall pay any such assessment or additional premium. Seller shall receive
any premium refunds as a result of any audits described in the immediately
preceding sentence. On the Closing Date, Seller and Parent shall assume all
obligations of indemnity to any Person who shall have served as a director or
officer of the Company prior to the Closing Date in respect to actions taken in
such capacity on or prior to the Closing Date.

        (b) If, prior to the Closing Date: (i) any of the Assets and Properties
of the Company are damaged by fire or other casualty, (ii) such damage or other
casualty is material, (iii) Seller would reasonably repair such damage or
replace such Assets and Properties in the ordinary course of business, and (iv)
such repair or replacement has not been completed as of the Closing Date, then
the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive the insurance proceeds, if any,
arising out of such damage or other casualty, including the benefits of business
interruption coverage, as provided above. If, in the circumstances described in
the proceeding sentence, the insurance proceeds, if any, arising from such
damage or other casualty are not sufficient to repair such damage or replace the
Assets or Properties, Purchaser shall receive at Closing a credit against the
Purchase Price equal to: (i) the estimated cost of repairing such damage or
replacing such Assets and Properties in excess of the insurance proceeds paid to
Purchaser, as such amount shall be determined by a qualified independent third
party selected by Purchaser and Seller (ii) less the amount of any deductible
provided for in the insurance policy(s) under which such proceeds are paid.
Subsequent to the Closing Date, Seller and/or Parent shall not settle any claim
for damage or loss to any of the Assets and Properties of the Company with any
insurer without the prior written consent of Purchaser to the extent Purchaser
is entitled to receive the insurance proceeds as provided above, which written

Vegas, Nevada. Company shall prepare and present to Purchaser for its approval
(subject to any limitations on such approval right under Law) a budget for the
costs of such computer, related hardware and software. Purchaser shall have
fifteen (15) days from the receipt of such budget in which to approve the
selection of the computer, related hardware, software, and costs associated
therewith (subject to any limitations on such approval right under Law). If such
budget is approved by Purchaser then Seller shall purchase, install and make

                               MERGER, TAX MATTERS

        8.01 Merger. On the Closing Date the Company shall merge with United
Coin, LLC, with United Coin, LLC surviving the merger. The parties acknowledge
that the Purchaser's purchase of the Membership Interest in United Coin, LLC,

manner set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, consistent with the requirements of
Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The fair
market value of Class III assets, as such term is defined under Treasury
Regulations promulgated under Section 338 of the Code, including, but not
limited to, tangible personal property, real property, and premium leases, shall

accountants of both parties, whose fees and expenses shall be paid equally by
both Seller and Purchaser as provided in Section 8.04 hereof. Parent, Seller and
Purchaser (a) shall be bound by such allocation for purposes of determining any
Taxes, (b) shall prepare and file all Tax Returns to be filed with any taxing
authority in a manner consistent with such allocation, and (c) shall take no
position inconsistent with such allocation in any Tax Return, any proceeding
before any Governmental or Regulatory Authority or otherwise.

        8.02 Additional Costs and Taxes; Governmental and Regulatory Licensing
Fees. Purchaser shall pay all Governmental and Regulatory Authority licensing
and investigative fees imposed by the Governmental and Regulatory Authorities in
connection with their consideration and approval of the Merger. Purchaser shall
reimburse Parent for all additional reasonable fees, costs expenses and Taxes in
excess of the fees, costs, expenses and Taxes that would have been incurred had
the transaction been structured as a stock purchase under an Internal Revenue
Code Section 338(h)(10) election upon presentation of invoices, receipts and
statements evidencing same. The Parties agree that to the extent the Merger or
any action to complete the Merger shall result in any breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Parent or Seller or
nonfulfillment of any condition for Closing in this Agreement, such breach or
nonfulfillment shall be disregarded for deemed purposes of this Agreement or
such representation, warranty, covenant or condition shall be waived to the
extent necessary to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in order to
close the transaction as contemplated by Section 1.03.

        8.03 Taxes. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Parent,
Seller and their Affiliates harmless for any Transfer Taxes arising out of or in
connection with the transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement net of any
Tax Benefit Actually Realized by Parent and/or Seller in connection with the
payment of such Taxes. Seller and Parent shall take such actions as are
necessary to terminate on the Closing Date the income tax periods of the Company
which commence within twelve months prior to the Closing Date. Seller and Parent

                                       32

will include the Company in Parent's group of consolidated federal income tax
returns for all pre-Closing periods or partial periods ending on the Closing
Date. Purchaser shall pay, indemnify, defend and hold Parent and Seller harmless
for any Taxes imposed on the Company with respect to any period commencing after
the Closing Date, net of any Tax Benefit Actually Realized by Parent or Seller
in connection with the payment of any such Taxes.

        8.04 Purchase Price Allocations and Closing Calculations. The
accountants selected by Purchaser ("Purchaser's Accountants") may on reasonable
notice enter the premises of the Business at all reasonable times approved by
the President and/or Chief Operating Officer of Parent, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, for the purpose of making such examinations and audits
of the Business and of the Books and Records of the Business as Purchaser's
Accountants may deem necessary in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere
with the Company's operations.

               (a) Tentative Allocation of the Purchase Price. Purchaser shall
inform Seller in writing of the expected date upon which Purchaser's
applications for Nevada gaming licenses are expected to appear on the agenda of
the Nevada Gaming Control Board (the "Agenda Date"), which written notice shall
be sent not later than one hundred thirty-five (135) days prior to the Agenda
Date. Based on such preliminary audits and examinations as Purchaser's
Accountants shall have conducted prior thereto, Purchaser's Accountants shall
deliver to Seller and to Purchaser not later than fifteen (15) days after the
Tentative Allocation Date a preliminary schedule setting forth: (i) the
projected Purchase Price, (ii) the projected amount of Cash On Hand, (iii) the
proposed allocation of the Purchase Price under Section 1060 of the Code, (iv)
the projected net amount of Excluded Liabilities to be paid, discharged or
assumed by Seller on the Closing Date, and (v) the projected additional
reasonable fees, costs expenses and Taxes in excess of the fees, costs, expenses
and Taxes that would have been incurred had the transaction been structured as a
stock purchase under an Internal Revenue Code Section 338(h)(10) election that
Purchaser is obligated to pay under Section 8.03 above ("Tentative Allocation
Schedule"). Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of its receipt of
the Tentative Allocation Schedule in which to accept or reject the Tentative
Allocation Schedule. If, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Tentative
Allocation Schedule, Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller disapproves of such
Tentative Allocation Schedule and specifies in reasonable detail the reason for
Seller's disapproval, then Purchaser's Accountants and Seller's Accountants
shall jointly attempt to resolve the dispute. If such dispute is not resolved
within ten (10) days after Seller's notice, then Purchaser's Accountants and
Seller's Accountants shall jointly submit such dispute to another firm of
independent certified public accountants of recognized standing in the casino
gaming industry for the resolution of such dispute within ten (10) days
thereafter. The determination of such firm of independent certified public
accountants shall be conclusive and binding on Purchaser and Seller. The parties
shall equally share all costs, fees and expenses directly incurred in connection
with the determination of such firm of independent certified public accountants.

               (b) Preliminary Closing Statement. Based on such preliminary
audits and inventories as Purchaser's Accountants shall have conducted prior to
the Closing Date, Purchaser

                                       33
<PAGE>   35

shall prepare and deliver to Seller not later than the Agenda Date a preliminary
closing statement setting forth: (i) the Purchase Price, (ii) the allocation of
the Purchase Price under Section 1060 of the Code, (iii) the net amount of
Excluded Liabilities to be paid, discharged or assumed by Seller on the Closing
Date, (iv) required Cash on Hand, (v) projected Adjusted Working Capital, and
(vi) the projected additional reasonable fees, costs expenses and Taxes in
excess of the fees, costs, expenses and Taxes that would have been incurred had
the transaction been structured as a stock purchase under an Internal Revenue
Code Section 338(h)(10) election that Purchaser is obligated to pay under
Section 8.03 above (a "Preliminary Closing Statement"). If, within ten (10) days
after receipt of either the Preliminary Closing Statement or the Final Closing
Statement, Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller disapproves of such Closing
Statement and specifies in reasonable detail the reason for Seller's
disapproval, then Purchaser's Accountants and Seller's Accountants shall jointly
attempt to resolve the dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within ten (10)
days after Seller's notice, then Purchaser's Accountants and Seller's
Accountants shall jointly submit such dispute to another firm of independent
certified public accountants of recognized standing in the casino gaming
industry for the resolution of such dispute within ten (10) days thereafter, and
the determination of such firm of independent certified public accountants shall
be conclusive and binding on Purchaser, Seller and Parent. If a dispute arises
between the parties under this Section 8.04(b) that is not resolved prior to the
Closing Date, then the Closing Date shall be extended to the date that is five
(5) days after the resolution of the dispute or the date of the determination of
the firm of independent certified public accountants, as the case may be. Based
upon the Preliminary Closing Statement and such dispute resolution, at the
Cut-off Time on the Closing Date, Seller shall remove from the Company all cash
in excess of required Cash on Hand. If Adjusted Working Capital is less than
zero on the Closing Date, Seller shall pay to United Coin, LLC, on the Closing
Date the amount by which Adjusted Working Capital is less than zero. Based upon
the Preliminary Closing Statement and such dispute resolution, on the Closing
Date, Seller shall pay such Excluded Liabilities as are described on Section
1.04(a) of the Disclosure Schedule as updated as of the Closing Date in the
amounts determined under the Preliminary Closing Statement.

               (c) Final Closing Statement. Within one hundred twenty (120) days
after the Closing Date, Purchaser's Accountants shall deliver a final closing
statement (a "Final Closing Statement") to Purchaser, to Seller and to Escrow
Holder setting forth the final determination of all items to be included in the
closing statements, including, but not limited to the Purchase Price and any
adjustment required for Adjusted Working Capital. If, within fifteen (15) days
after receipt of the Final Closing Statement, Seller notifies Purchaser that
Seller disapproves of such Closing Statement and specifies in reasonable detail
the reason for Seller's disapproval, then Purchaser's Accountants and Seller's
Accountants shall jointly attempt to resolve the dispute. If such dispute is not
resolved within ten (10) days after Seller's notice, then Purchaser's
Accountants and Seller's Accountants shall jointly submit such dispute to
another firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized standing
in the casino gaming industry, and the determination of such firm of independent
certified public accountants shall be conclusive and binding on Purchaser,
Seller and Parent. The parties shall equally share all costs, fees and expenses
directly incurred in connection with the determination of such firm of
independent certified public accountants. Amounts determined to be owed by
Seller to Purchaser or by Purchaser to Seller which are not

                                       34
<PAGE>   36

disputed shall be settled in cash between Purchaser and Seller within ten (10)
days after receipt of the Final Closing Statement. Amounts determined to be owed
by Seller to Purchaser or by Purchaser to Seller which are disputed shall be
settled in cash between Purchaser and Seller within ten (10) days after
resolution of the dispute or the date of the determination of the firm of
independent certified public accountants, as the case may be.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                     EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS MATTERS

        9.01 Continuation of Benefits. During the period from the Closing Date
until of the end of the 12-month period following the Closing Date, Purchaser
shall maintain or cause to be maintained, wages, compensation levels, employee
pension and welfare plans for the benefit of then employees of the Company that
are comparable, in the aggregate, to those wages, compensation levels and other
benefits provided under the employee pension and welfare plans that are in
effect on the date hereof. Thereafter, there shall be no limitation whatsoever
upon changes to or elimination of any or all of the foregoing.

        9.02 Severance Policy and Other Agreements.

               (a) With respect to any current officer or employee who is
covered by a severance policy or plan separate from the standard severance
policy for the Company's employees, (and who continue as an officer or employee
of Purchaser after the Closing Date) the Purchaser shall maintain or cause to be
maintained such separate policy or plan as in effect as of the date hereof, and
as to all other officers and employees, Purchaser shall maintain or cause to be
maintained the Company's standard severance policy as in effect as of the date
hereof for a period of at least 12 months from the Closing Date.

               (b) Except in respect to the severance obligations described in
Section 9.02(a) of the Disclosure Schedule which obligations shall be that of
the Seller, Purchaser shall honor or cause to be honored all monetary
obligations under severance agreements and employment agreements with the
Company's directors, officers and employees incurred after the Closing Date
arising from termination of employment of such directors, officers or employees
after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall have no obligation for any such
obligations arising prior to the Closing Date.

        9.03 Bonus. Purchaser will maintain, or cause to be maintained, the
Company's bonus Plans, as in effect on the date hereof, through the end of the
fiscal year in which the Closing occurs, with bonuses to be paid to the employee
participating thereunder at the greater of (a) the target level, if applicable,
(b) the prior year's bonus, or (c) such bonus as the employee would have earned
if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement had not occurred, in all
events on a basis consistent with past practice.

        9.04 Waiver of Preexisting Conditions; Credit for Deductibles; Service
Credit. Purchaser

                                       35
<PAGE>   37

shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Company to: (a)
waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting
periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to
the employees of the Company under any welfare plan that such employees may be
eligible to participate in after the Closing Date, (b) provide each employee of
the Company with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the
Effective Time in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket
requirements under any welfare plans that such employees are eligible to
participate in after the Closing Date, and (c) provide each employee of the
Company with credit for all service with the Company and its Affiliates under
each employee benefit plan, program, or arrangement of Purchaser or its
Affiliates in which such employees are eligible to participate; provided,
however, that in no event shall the employees be entitled to any credit to the
extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the
same period of service.

        9.05 Welfare Plans. Seller shall retain responsibility for and continue
to pay all medical, life insurance, disability and other welfare plan expenses
and benefits for each employee and former employee of the Company with respect
to claims incurred by such employees or former employees or their covered
dependents prior to the Closing Date. Expenses and benefits with respect to
claims incurred by employees of United Coin, LLC or their covered dependents on
or after the Closing Date shall be the responsibility of Purchaser. For purposes
of this paragraph, a claim is deemed incurred when the services that are the
subject of the claim are performed, in the case of life insurance, when the
death occurs, and, in the case of short-term or long-term disability benefits,
when the disability occurs.

        9.06 COBRA. On the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall assume, or shall
cause United Coin, LLC to assume, any and all obligations of Seller, Parent and
their affiliates (including, but not limited to, any health or medical plans
sponsored by Seller, Parent or their affiliates) to provide continuation
coverage to employees of United Coin, LLC pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended.

        9.07 401(k) Plan Assets. Employees of the Company shall cease to accrue
benefits and service credits under the Alliance Gaming Corporation Profit
Sharing 401(k) Plan (the "Seller 401(k) Plan") as of the Closing Date. Effective
as of the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause United Coin, LLC to
establish a new savings plan (the "Purchaser 401(k) Plan") and associated trust.
The assets of the Seller 401(k) Plan attributable to employees of the Company
prior to the Closing Date shall be retained or distributed under the terms of
the Seller 401(k) Plan as provided under the Seller 401(k) Plan. Purchaser shall
accept rollovers from the Seller 401(K) Plan for the Company employees employed
by United Coin, LLC on the Closing Date. Purchaser shall provide to Seller
evidence reasonably satisfactory to Seller that the Purchaser 401(k) Plan and
the associated trust have been established and that the Purchaser 401(k) Plan
qualifies under the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code. Seller shall
provide to Purchaser evidence reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser that the
Seller 401(k) Plan remains qualified under the requirements of Section 401(a) of
the Code. Purchaser shall assume no Liabilities of Seller, Parent and their
affiliates with respect to employees under the Seller 401(k) Plan. Seller shall
remain responsible for all acts, omissions and transactions under or in
connection with the Seller 401(k) Plan.

                                       36
<PAGE>   38

        9.08 Management Services. For a period of twelve (12) months following
the Closing Date, Parent shall provide to Purchaser, at no cost to Purchaser, on
reasonable advance notice, the services of Robert Miodunski, on a limited,
non-exclusive and reasonable basis (taking into consideration Robert Miodunski's
time commitments, duties and responsibilities as Chief Operating Officer of
Parent), to advise and consult with Purchaser's managers, officers, and
employees regarding Company's technical and marketing activities, operations and
business strategies. Periodically prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall make
Robert Miodunski available to Purchaser, upon reasonable prior notice (taking
into consideration Robert Miodunski's time commitments, duties and
responsibilities as Chief Operating Officer of Parent), for the purposes of: (a)
reviewing the technical and marketing activities, operations and business
strategies of the Company and (b) meeting with Purchaser's proposed senior
lenders, subordinated senior lenders, and equity owners for the purposes of
providing relevant information regarding the Company. Neither Robert Miodunski,
Parent or Seller or any of their Affiliates shall be liable in any manner for
any advice or consultation given by Robert Miodunski to, and at the request of
Purchaser or any manager, officer of employee of Purchaser regarding the Company
or the Company's activities. Purchaser shall indemnify Robert Miodunski and the
Seller Indemnitees, as the case may be, in respect of, and hold each of them
harmless from any and all Losses or liabilities arising out of, resulting from
or relating to any such advice or consultation. Purchaser hereby acknowledges
that Robert Miodunski may be involved in other activities that may conflict with
Purchaser's activities with respect to the Company, and neither Robert
Miodunski, Parent, Seller or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to any
limitations on their activities as a result of the services provided by Robert
Miodunski hereunder and agrees that: (x) Purchaser's requests for advice and
consultation may not unreasonably interfere with Robert Miodunski's duties in
any manner, (y) Purchaser, its officers, managers or employees may request the
advice of, or consult Robert Miodunski within the period established hereby,
only so long as Robert Miodunski remains actively employed by Parent (or if such
employment is terminated, under terms that Robert Miodunski might agree with
Purchaser), and (z) will reimburse Parent, Seller and their Affiliates for any
out-of-pocket expenses incurred related to the advice and consultation provided
by Robert Miodunski, at the request of Purchaser, pursuant to this Section 9.08.

        9.09 Employees. Upon prior reasonable notice, and in the presence of
designated Representatives of Seller, Seller shall permit Purchaser's
Representatives to meet with the employees of the Company, either singularly or
in groups, as the parties may agree, to discuss Purchaser's plans for the
Company and Purchaser's proposed employment policies and other
employment-related issues, unless such meetings are prohibited by Law. Seller
has delivered to Purchaser information relating to the following named key
employees of Company, including, without limitation, their compensation and
benefits: Roy Garrett, Craig Soper, Dave Sloan, Rob Woodson, Bob Craig, Susan
Stone, Bill Trimble and Mark Mullins. Purchaser shall have the right to discuss
the payment of retention bonuses, and only retention bonuses, with the above
named employees prior to the Closing Date upon reasonable notice to Seller, and
in the presence of designated Representatives of Seller, unless such discussions
are prohibited by Law.

        9.10 WARN Act. Seller shall provide Purchaser with an accurate and
complete list of all

                                       37
<PAGE>   39

employees whose employment was terminated during the one (1) year immediately
preceding the Closing Date, together with the dates of such employees'
employment, the location of employment and the reason that employment was
terminated (e.g., reduction-in-force, misconduct, voluntary termination,
retirement, death, etc.).

        9.10.1 As soon as practicable before the Closing Date, Company shall
physically give written notice to each of Company's employees of the cessation
of their employment with Company as of the Closing Date, in form and content
satisfactory to Purchaser. After the date on which Company so notifies all of
Company's employees of their said employment cessation with Company, and before
the Closing Date, Purchaser shall determine which of Company's employees
Purchaser desires to offer employment. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser shall
offer employment commencing on the day after the Closing Date to at least that
number of Company's employees that is equal to the arithmetic remainder of the
total number of Company's employees as of the Closing Date, minus fifty (50).
Seller and Purchaser accordingly contemplate that an insufficient number of
employees will experience an "employment loss" as defined in the U.S. Worker
Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act ("WARN"), as amended, 29 U.S.C.
Section 2101, et seq., on account of Purchaser's purchase of the Membership
Interest to trigger any 60-day notice requirement under the WARN Act on or
before the Closing Date. Purchaser shall have no liability, cost or obligation
whatsoever to Seller, Parent or Company or to any of Company employees with
respect to those of Company's employees to whom Purchaser does not make such an
offer of employment, or with respect to those of Company's employees to whom
Purchaser offers employment but who do not timely accept such offer, or with
respect to those of Company's employees to whom Purchaser does make such an
offer of employment (other than to comply with the terms of such offer of
employment). Purchaser has not assumed, is not assuming and at no later time
ever shall assume, and Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and
United Coin, LLC for, any liability, cost or obligation whatsoever of Seller,
Parent or Company under the WARN Act.

                                   ARTICLE X

                       SURVIVAL; NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS

covenants and agreements contained in Sections 1.04, 4.08, 4.10, 4.15, 5.07,
5.08, 14.03 and 14.05, (b) until the expiration of all applicable statutes of

as they relate to ERISA or the Code) Sections 2.13 and Article IX, or (c) until
eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date in the case of each other
representation, warranty, covenant and agreement (other than the agreements
contained in Sections 4.03 and 5.03 which shall survive for the period specified
therein), except that any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that
would otherwise terminate in accordance with clause (b) or (c) above

                                       38
<PAGE>   40

will continue to survive if a Claim Notice or Indemnity Notice (as applicable)
shall have been timely given in good faith based on facts reasonably expected to
establish a valid claim under Article XI on or prior to such termination date,
until the related claim for indemnification has been satisfied or otherwise
resolved as provided in Article XI; and except that the representations and
warranties made by Seller and Parent under Section 2.26 with respect to real
property owned by the Company shall not survive the Closing.

        10.02 No Other Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, it is the explicit intent of each party hereto that
Seller and Parent are making no representation or warranty whatsoever, express
or implied, except those representations and warranties contained in this
Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.03. In
particular, Seller and Parent make no representation or warranty to Purchaser
with respect to any financial projection or forecast relating to the Business or
Condition of the Company. With respect to any projection or forecast delivered
by or on behalf of Seller and Parent to Purchaser, Purchaser acknowledges that
(i) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such projections and
forecasts, (ii) it is familiar with such uncertainties, (iii) it is taking full
responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all
such projections and forecasts furnished to it and (iv) it shall have no claim
against Seller and Parent with respect thereto.

                                   ARTICLE XI

sustained by any of them or to which any of them becomes subject, resulting
from, arising out of or relating to any breach of representation or warranty or
nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of
Purchaser contained in this Agreement.

<PAGE>   41

                      (i) (A) unless, until and then only to the extent that the
        Purchaser Indemnitees have suffered, incurred, sustained or become
        subject to Losses referred to in such paragraph in excess of $400,000,

        Indemnitees once they have received payments in respect of claims made
        under such paragraph of $5,000,000 in the aggregate; or

                      (ii) If the Purchaser Indemnitee has not given the Seller
        and Parent a Claim Notice or Indemnity Notice, as applicable, with
        respect to such claim, setting forth in reasonable detail the specific
        facts and circumstances pertaining thereto, (A) as soon as practical
        following the time at which the Purchaser Indemnitee discovered or
        reasonably should have discovered such claim (except to the extent
        Seller and Parent are not prejudiced by any delay in the delivery of
        such notice) and (B) in any event prior to the applicable Cut-off Date;
        or
                      (iii) to the extent that: (A) a Purchaser Indemnitee had a
        reasonable opportunity, but failed in good faith to mitigate the Loss,
        including but not limited to the failure to use commercially reasonable
        efforts to recover under a policy of insurance or under a contractual
        right of set-off or indemnity; or (B) the Loss arises from or was caused
        by actions taken or failed to be taken by a Purchaser Indemnitee or any

respect to a Loss arising under paragraph (b) of Section 11.01:

                      (i) (A) unless, until and then only to the extent that the
        Seller Indemnitees have suffered, incurred, sustained or become subject
        to Losses referred to in such paragraph in excess of $400,000 in the
        aggregate, in which event the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to
        claim indemnity for Losses over and above such amount; and (B) no
        amounts of indemnity shall be payable to the Seller Indemnitees once
        they have received payments in respect of claims made under such
        paragraph of $5,000,000 in the aggregate; or

                      (iii) if the Seller Indemnitee has not given the Purchaser
        a Claim Notice or Indemnity Notice, as applicable, with respect to such
        claim, setting forth in reasonable detail the specific facts and
        circumstances pertaining thereto, (A) as soon as practical following the
        time at which the Seller Indemnitee discovered or reasonably should have

        reasonable opportunity, but failed, in good faith to mitigate the Loss,
        including but not limited to the failure to use commercially reasonable
        efforts to recover under a policy of insurance or under a contractual
        right of set-off or indemnity; or (B the Loss arises from or was caused
        by actions taken or failed to be taken by Seller, Parent or any of its
        Affiliates after the Closing;

                                       40
<PAGE>   42

provided that the limitations contained in clauses (d)(i)(A) and (B) shall not
apply to Losses arising from breach of the representations contained in Sections
3.07, 5.07, 5.08 and 14.05.

        11.02 Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification by any
Indemnified Party under Section 11.01 will be asserted and resolved as follows:

               (a) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which an
Indemnified Party might seek indemnity under Section 11.01 is asserted against
or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than
Seller or any Affiliate of Seller or of Purchaser (a "Third Party Claim"), the
Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice with reasonable promptness to the
Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will notify the Indemnified Party as
soon as practicable within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party
disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 11.01 and whether
the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the
Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.

                      (i) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified
        Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to
        defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim
        pursuant to this Section 11.02(a), then the Indemnifying Party will have
        the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying
        Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which
        proceedings will be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the
        Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the
        discretion of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will have
        full control of such defense and proceedings, including any settlement
        thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party,
        the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the
        Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its
        counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party
        elects to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party
        Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person
        asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any
        Person (other than the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates).
        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may retain or take
        over the control of the defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim
        the defense of which the Indemnifying Party has elected to control if
        the Indemnified Party irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under
        Section 11.01 with respect to such Third Party Claim.

                      (ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the
        Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party
        desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 11.02(a),
        then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole
        cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all
        appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be vigorously and
        diligently prosecuted by the Indemnified Party to a final conclusion or
        will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the
        consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be
        unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of
        such defense and proceedings, including (except as provided in the
        immediately preceding sentence) any settlement thereof; provided,
        however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying
        Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party,
        cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any
        Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting, or, if
        appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making
        any

                                       41
<PAGE>   43

        counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any
        cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnifying Party or
        any of its Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
        clause (ii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified
        Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its
        liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third
        Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying
        Party in the manner provided in clause (iii) below, the Indemnifying
        Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the
        Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this clause (ii) or of the
        Indemnifying Party's participation therein at the Indemnified Party's
        request, and the Indemnified Party will reimburse the Indemnifying Party
        in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the
        Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying
        Party may retain separate counsel to represent it in, but not control,
        any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant
        to this clause (ii), and the Indemnifying Party will bear its own costs
        and expenses with respect to such participation.

                      (iii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified
        Party that it does not dispute its liability to the Indemnified Party
        with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section 11.01 or fails to
        notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the
        Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with
        respect to such Third Party Claim, the Loss arising from such Third
        Party Claim will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying
        Party under Section 11.01 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the
        amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand following the
        final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying Party has timely
        disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying
        Party and the Indemnified Party will proceed in good faith to negotiate
        a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations
        within the Resolution Period, such dispute shall be resolved by
        arbitration in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 11.02.

                      (iv) Any sums due Purchaser as the Indemnified Party for
        Losses arising from such Third Party Claim, to the extent not otherwise
        paid by the Indemnifying Party, may be set-off as provided in Section
        11.04.

               (b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under
Section 11.01 against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party
Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable
promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the
Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such Indemnity
Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period
whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such Indemnity
Notice, the Loss arising from the claim specified in such Indemnity Notice will
be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 11.01
and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified
Party on demand following the final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying
Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will proceed in good faith to
negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations
within the Resolution Period, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in
accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 11.02. Any sums due Purchaser as
the Indemnified Party for Losses, to the extent not otherwise paid by the
Indemnifying Party, may

                                       42
<PAGE>   44

be set-off as provided in Section 11.04.

               (c) In the event of any claim for indemnity under Section
11.01(a), Purchaser agrees to give Seller and its Representatives reasonable
access to the Books and Records and employees of the Company in connection with
the matters for which indemnification is sought to the extent Seller reasonably
deems necessary in connection with its rights and obligations under this Article
XI.
               (d) Any dispute not resolved within the Resolution Period shall
be submitted to arbitration to be finally and conclusively determined. Not later
than five (5) days after the expiration of the Resolution Period, the parties
shall select one neutral arbitrator (the "Arbitrator"). If the parties are
unable to mutually agree upon the Arbitrator within the five (5) day period
described above, the dispute shall be determined by a Board of Arbitration
consisting of three (3) members (hereinafter sometimes called the "Board of
Arbitration") selected as hereinafter provided.

        Each of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall select
one (1) member and the third member shall be selected by mutual agreement of the
other members, or if the other members fail to reach agreement on a third member
within twenty (20) days after their selection, such third member shall
thereafter be selected by the American Arbitration Association upon application
made to it for a third member possessing expertise or experience appropriate to
the dispute jointly by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party.

        The Arbitrator or Board of Arbitration, as the case may be, shall reach
and render a decision in writing (concurred in by a majority of the members of
the Board of Arbitration in the event such Board of Arbitration is constituted)
with respect to the amount, if any, which the Indemnifying Party is required to
pay to the Indemnified Party in respect of a Claim Notice or Indemnity Notice.
In connection with rendering its decisions, the Arbitrator or the Board of
Arbitration, as the case may be, shall adopt and follow such rules and
procedures as the Arbitrator, or a majority of the members of the Board of
Arbitration, as the case may be, deems necessary or appropriate. To the extent
practical, decisions of the Arbitrator or Board of Arbitration, as the case may
be, shall be rendered no more than thirty (30) days following commencement of
proceedings with respect thereto. The Arbitrator or the Board of Arbitration, as
the case may be, shall cause its written decision to be delivered to the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. Any decision made by the
Arbitrator, or Board of Arbitration, as the case may be (either prior to or
after the expiration of such thirty (30) calendar day period) shall be final,
binding and conclusive on the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and
entitled to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law and entered in
any court of competent jurisdiction. All reasonable expenses including legal
fees in connection with the arbitration of a dispute shall be paid by the non
prevailing party to the dispute in accordance with the decision of the
Arbitrator or Board of Arbitration, as the case may be.

        11.03  Method of Calculating Losses.

               (a) The amount of any payment to an Indemnified Party shall be
reduced by the amount of any Tax Benefit Actually Realized by the Indemnified
Party from payment of the liability upon which the claim for indemnity is based.

               (b) "Tax Benefit" shall mean the sum of the amount by which the
actual Tax liability (after giving effect to any alternative minimum or similar
Tax) of an Indemnified Party (or in the case of Purchaser or United Coin, LLC,
the Tax liability of their members) to the appropriate taxing authority is
reduced by the payment of the liability upon which the claim for indemnity (or

                                       43
<PAGE>   45

other claim) is based (including, without limitation, by or as a result of a
deduction, increase in basis, entitlement to refund, credit or otherwise,
whether available in the current taxable year, as an adjustment to the taxable
income in any other taxable year or as a carryforward or carryback, as
applicable) plus any interest (on an after-Tax basis) from such government or
jurisdiction relating to such Tax liability. For purposes of this Agreement, a
Tax Benefit shall be deemed to have been "Actually Realized" at the time any
refund of Taxes is actually received or applied against other Taxes due, or at
the time of the filing of a Tax Return (including any Tax Return relating to
estimated Taxes) on which a loss, deduction or credit or increase in basis is
applied to reduce the amount of Taxes which would otherwise be payable. Where a
Tax Benefit may be realized that may result in the reduction of a payment to the
Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party will as promptly as practicable take or
cause its Affiliates to take such reasonable or appropriate steps (including,
without limitation, the filing of an amended Tax Return or claim for refund) to
obtain at the earliest possible time any such reasonably available Tax Benefit.

               (c) For purposes of any Tax Benefit Actually Realized determined
under subsection (b) above:

                          (i) No later than 45 days after the filing of a Tax
Return for any taxable period that includes a date upon which any amount was
paid or accrued by the Indemnified Party in respect of the liability upon which
the claim for indemnity is based, the Indemnified Party shall provide the
Indemnifying Party a detailed statement ("Tax Benefit Statement") specifying the
amount, if any, of any Tax Benefit that was Actually Realized by the Indemnified
Party for such Tax period. To the extent that any deductions or other Tax items
(including basis) that could give rise to a Tax reduction or savings do not
result in the actual realization of such a Tax reduction or savings in the year
described in the previous sentence, this subsection 11.03(c)(i) shall apply to
each subsequent taxable period of the Indemnified Party, as the case may be,
until either such Tax savings are Actually Realized (resulting in a Tax Benefit)
or the losses or other carryforwards to which such deductions or other Tax items
(including basis) gave rise expire unused, if applicable. For each relevant
taxable period, the Indemnifying Party shall be provided with full access to the
non-proprietary work papers and other materials and information of the
Indemnified Party's accountants in connection with the review of the Tax Benefit
Statement. If the Indemnifying Party disagrees in any respect with the
Indemnified Party's computation of the amount of the Tax Benefit Actually
Realized, the Indemnifying Party may, on or prior to 45 days after the receipt
of the Tax Benefit Statement, deliver a notice to the Indemnified Party setting
forth in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnifying Party's disagreement
therewith ("Tax Benefit Dispute Notice"). If no Tax Benefit Dispute Notice is
received by the Indemnified Party on or prior to the 45th day after the
Indemnifying Party's receipt of the Tax Benefit Statement from the Indemnified
Party, the Tax Benefit Statement shall be deemed accepted.

                          (ii) Within 15 days after the Indemnified Party's
receipt of a Tax Benefit Dispute Notice, unless the matters in the Tax Benefit
Dispute Notice have otherwise been resolved by mutual agreement of the parties,
the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall jointly select a
nationally-recognized independent certified public accountant (the "Tax Benefit
Accountant"); provided, however, if the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
Party are unable to agree upon the Tax Benefit Accountant within such 15-day
period, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall each select
a nationally-recognized independent certified public

                                       44
<PAGE>   46

accountant which shall then jointly choose the Tax Benefit Accountant within 15
days thereafter. The Tax Benefit Accountant shall conduct such review of the
work papers and such other materials and information, and the Tax Benefit
Dispute Notice, and any supporting documentation as the Tax Benefit Accountant
in its sole discretion deems necessary, and the Tax Benefit Accountant shall
conduct such hearings or hear such presentations by the parties or obtain such
other information as the Tax Benefit Accountant in its sole discretion deems
necessary.

                          (iii) The Tax Benefit Accountant shall, as promptly as
practicable and in no event later than 45 days following the date of its
retention, deliver to the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party a report
(the "Tax Benefit Report") in which the Tax Benefit Accountant shall, after
reviewing the disputed items set forth in the Tax Benefit Dispute Notice,
determine what adjustments, if any, should be made to the amount of the Tax
Benefit Actually Realized. The Tax Benefit Report shall set forth, in reasonable
detail, the Tax Benefit Accountant's determination with respect to the disputed
items or amounts specified in the Tax Benefit Dispute Notice, and the revisions,
if any, to be made to the amount of the Tax Benefit Actually Realized, together
with supporting calculations. All fees and expenses relating to this work of the
Tax Benefit Accountant shall be borne equally by the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party. The Tax Benefit Report shall be final and binding upon the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, shall be deemed a final
arbitration award that is binding on each of the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party, and no party shall seek further recourse to courts, other
arbitral tribunals or otherwise. The amount, if any, of the Tax Benefit Actually
Realized set forth in the Tax Benefit Report shall reduce the payment of the
liability upon which the claim for indemnity is based and the net amount of such
payment shall be paid to the Indemnified Party.

        11.04 Right of Set-Off. Purchaser and/or United Coin, LLC, on behalf of
the Purchaser Indemnitees, shall have the right to set-off against sums: (a) due
Seller under the terms of the Senior Preferred Equity, (b) due Bally under the
Supply Agreement, or (c) due Bally under the lease of gaming equipment by United
Coin, LLC, from Bally, amounts due Purchaser for Losses incurred for which
Parent and/or Seller are obligated to indemnify Purchaser under this Article XI.
In the event Purchaser and/or United Coin, LLC, claims that the right of set-off
on behalf of a Purchaser Indemnitee, and Seller has disputed its liability with
respect thereto, Purchaser or Company may deliver such funds which become
payable to Seller, Parent or Bally or their assigns to Escrow Holder, to be held
by Escrow Holder pending such determination pursuant to the terms and provisions
of the escrow instructions attached hereto as Exhibit K (the "Set-Off Escrow
Instructions"). Purchaser shall pay the costs of the Escrow Holder. Delivery of
such funds to Escrow Holder shall be deemed to constitute payment or delivery to
the Seller, Parent, or Bally, as the case may be, or their assigns of the funds.
The right of set-off provided for in this Section 11.04 shall only be asserted
in an amount equal to the amount asserted in the Claim Notice or Indemnity
Notice.

        Purchaser shall have the right to direct the Escrow Holder to deliver
funds deposited with such Escrow Holder as provided above at any time after
Seller or Parent fails to dispute a Indemnity Notice or a Claim Notice in the
manner set forth in Section 11.02 (a) (iii) or 11.02(b). Delivery of funds held
by the Escrow Holder as provided above shall be made to the party entitled
thereto: (i) if Seller or Parent have disputed a Claim Notice or Indemnity
Notice, at any time after resolution of such dispute during the Resolution
Period, or during the period such dispute is in arbitration, in the

                                       45
<PAGE>   47

amount determined by agreement of the parties, or (ii) if the parties have
arbitrated such Claim Notice or Indemnity Notice, to the party(s) and in the
amount(s) awarded by the Arbitrator, or Board of Arbitration, as the case may
be, on the seventh (7th) day after delivery of the decision of the Arbitrator or
the Board of Arbitration, as the case may be.

        11.05 Exclusivity. After the Closing, to the extent permitted by Law,
the indemnities set forth in this Article XI shall be the exclusive remedies of
Purchaser and Seller and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents
and Affiliates for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment
or failure to be performed of any covenant or agreement contained in this
Agreement, and the parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this
Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature
whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which the parties hereto hereby waive.

                                   ARTICLE XII
                      DEPOSIT, TERMINATION, TERMINATION FEE

        12.01 Deposits by Purchaser. (a) Upon execution of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall deposit with Escrow Holder One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in
cash (the "Deposit") (all references in this Agreement to cash shall be deemed
to mean payment by certified or bank cashier's check or wire transfer of
immediately available funds), which amount is paid for the purpose of securing
the performance of Purchaser in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the Deposit Escrow Agreement, the form of which is attached hereto
as Exhibit "H." Upon Seller's payment of the Purchaser approved costs described
in Section 4.16, Purchaser shall deposit with Escrow Holder the amount of such
Purchaser approved costs (the "System Deposit"). The System Deposit shall be
held by Escrow Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the Deposit Escrow Agreement. In the absence of an uncured
material breach of the Agreement by Purchaser, the Deposit, and the System
Deposit, if made, shall be returned to Purchaser if this Agreement is rightfully
terminated as provided in Sections 12.03(a), (b), (d)(i)-(iii) or (e). In the
absence of an uncured material breach by Purchaser, the Deposit and the System
Deposit, if made, shall be returned to Purchaser at any time during the Initial
Term or the Extension Term, if during either the Initial Term or the Extension
Term Purchaser elects to rightfully terminate this Agreement as provided in
Section 12.03(c) and: (a) there is an uncured material breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Seller
set forth in this Agreement, or (b) there is a Material Adverse Change in the
Business or Condition of the Company, or (c) after using its reasonable best
efforts, Purchaser is unable to obtain necessary gaming regulatory approvals
required under Section 6.05, or (d) after using its reasonable best efforts,
Purchaser is unable to obtain the financing described in Section 5.05, under
terms reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. In the absence of an uncured material
breach by Purchaser, the Deposit and the System Deposit, if made, shall be
returned to Purchaser at any time during the Commitment Term, if Purchaser
elects to rightfully terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 12.03(c)
and: (a) there is an uncured material breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Seller set forth in this
Agreement, or (b) there is a Material Adverse Change in the Business or
Condition of the Company, or (c) Purchaser, after using its reasonable best
efforts, is unable to obtain necessary gaming regulatory approvals described in
Section 6.05. If Seller shall elect to rightfully terminate this Agreement under
Section 12.03(d)(iv), the Deposit and the System Deposit, if made, shall be and
become the property of Seller.

                                       46
<PAGE>   48

        12.02 Term. The initial term of the Agreement shall be (9) months from
the execution of this Agreement (the "Initial Term"). If there is not an uncured
material breach by Purchaser of this Agreement, the Initial Term shall be
extended for three (3) additional one (1) month periods if Purchaser delivers
confirmation in writing to Parent prior to the beginning of each such month,
from gaming counsel to Purchaser, confirming that: (a) Purchaser is continuing
to seek all necessary gaming regulatory approvals required of Purchaser under
Section 6.05 and (b) such counsel has not become aware of any reason why such
approvals will not be obtained within fifteen (15) months after execution of the
Agreement (the "Extension Term"). If there is not an uncured material breach by
Purchaser of this Agreement, Purchaser shall be granted three (3) additional one
(1) month extensions after the aforementioned Extension Term (i.e. a maximum
term of 15 months) if Purchaser delivers to Parent confirmation of: (a) a
commitment to Purchaser for the financing described in Section 5.05(a); and (b)
with respect to each such extension, confirmation in writing prior to the
beginning of each such month, from gaming counsel to Purchaser, confirming that:
(i) Purchaser is continuing to seek all necessary gaming regulatory approvals
required of Purchaser under Section 6.05 and (ii) such counsel has not become
aware of any reason why such approvals will not be obtained within fifteen (15)
months after execution of the Agreement (the "Commitment Term"). If at the end
of the Commitment Term, the gaming license applications required of Purchaser
are on the agenda for the meeting of the Nevada Gaming Control Board to be held
immediately following the expiration of the Commitment Term, then the term of
the Agreement shall be extended, at no cost or expense to Purchaser, to the date
that is ten (10) Business Days after the last of the local gaming regulatory
approvals required to be obtained by Purchaser is obtained by Purchaser in order
to permit Purchaser to close the Acquisition; provided, further that: (a)
Purchaser may not unilaterally reschedule its appearance before any gaming
regulatory agency, but any such appearance may be rescheduled at the request of
third parties due to matters beyond Purchaser's control, and (b) Purchaser shall
diligently pursue in good faith all necessary gaming regulatory approvals
required to be obtained by Purchaser to close the Acquisition. In no event shall
the term of this Agreement extend beyond the date that is ninety (90) days from
the date Purchaser's Nevada gaming licenses are approved by the Nevada Gaming
Commission. In the event of a dispute between the parties relating to the
Preliminary Closing Schedule, the Closing Date shall be extended as provided in
Section 8.04(b).

        12.03 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the
transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned:

               (a) at any time before the Closing, by mutual written agreement
of Seller and Purchaser;

               (b) at any time before the Closing, by Seller or Purchaser, in
the event that any Order or Law becomes effective restraining, enjoining or
otherwise prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, upon notification of the
non-terminating party by the terminating party;

               (c) by Purchaser, upon notification to Seller by Purchaser, if
the Closing shall not have occurred on or before such date and such failure to
consummate is not caused by an uncured breach of this Agreement by Purchaser at
any time during: (i) the Initial Term or the Extension Term, if: (A) Purchaser
after using its reasonable best efforts reasonably determines that it will not

                                       47
<PAGE>   49

be able to obtain the financing described in Section 5.05, under terms
reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, or (B) Purchaser after using its reasonable
best efforts reasonably determines that it will not obtain the necessary gaming
regulatory approvals required of Purchaser under Section 6.05, or (C) there is
an uncured material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement on the part of Parent or Seller as set forth in this Agreement or (D)
there is a Material Adverse Change in the Business or Condition of the Company;
or (ii) during the Commitment Term, if: (X) Purchaser after using its reasonable
best efforts reasonably determines that it will not be able to obtain the
necessary gaming regulatory approvals required of Purchaser under Section 6.05,
or (Y) there is an uncured material breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Seller as set forth in this
Agreement or (Z) there is a Material Adverse Change in the Business or Condition
of the Company.

               (d) by Parent or Seller, if: (i) the Board of Directors of Parent
so determines and Parent shall have paid the Purchaser the Termination Fee
described in Section 12.04; or (ii) at any time after 60 days after the date
hereof Purchaser shall not have furnished the letters referred to in Section
5.05(a) and (b); (iii) the letters referred to in Section 5.05(a) and (b) shall
fail to be in full force and effect, (iv) there exists an uncured material
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Purchaser, or
(v) not later than ten (10) days following the delivery to Purchaser of
Unaudited Financial Statements for the Company fiscal year ending as of June 30,
2001, or as of the Determination Date, if earlier, if Adjusted EBITDA as of June
30, 2001, or the Determination Date, if earlier, is less than $26 million.

               (e) By Purchaser if: (i) Catfish Bend Casinos, L.C. fails to
obtain the approval of the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission by September 16,
2000 to make an investment in Purchaser, by giving Seller notice thereof not
later than September 18, 2000, or (ii) not later than ten (10) days following
the receipt by Purchaser of Unaudited Financial Statements for the Company
fiscal year ending as of June 30, 2001, or on the Determination Date, if
earlier, if Adjusted EBITDA as of June 30, 2001 or the Determination Date, if
earlier, is: (x) less than $26 million or (y) greater than $29 million;
provided, however, that if within five (5) days of the receipt by Seller of
Purchaser's notice of Purchaser's election to terminate this agreement under
this clause (y) Seller notifies Purchaser, in writing, that it elects to
complete the transaction and to compute the Purchase Price as if Adjusted EBITDA
as of June 30, 2001, or on the Determination Date, if earlier, was $29 million,
then Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under this

shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term or
condition of this Agreement on any future occasion. All remedies, either under
this Agreement or by Law or otherwise afforded, will be cumulative and not

        14.07 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified

interests and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate provided that any such
Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and
provisions contained herein; provided such assignment does not materially
