Re:          Long-Term Stay-On Performance
Incentive Payment

 

Dear Bill:

 

This letter (the “Agreement”)
sets forth the revised terms and conditions pursuant to which Station Casinos,
Inc. (the “Company”) has decided to award you a Long-Term Stay-On
Performance Incentive Payment (the “LTSO Payment”).  This Agreement supercedes and replaces that
letter agreement dated April 1, 1999 (the “Former Agreement”) between
the Company and you regarding the LTSO Payment, and the Former Agreement shall
no longer be of any force or effect.

 

1.                                       Purpose.  The purpose of the LTSO Payment is to
advance the interests of the Company by providing you with a cash incentive to
remain with the Company through April 1, 2009.

 

2.                                       Amount.  Subject to the conditions contained herein,
the Company will provide you with a LTSO Payment in the amount of $1,000,000 as
follows:

 

(a)                                  On
April 1, 2003 (the “First Award Date”), you will be paid $250,000 of the
LTSO Payment, minus the deductions required by law, provided that you have
remained continuously employed by the Company from April 1, 1999 through March
31, 2003.  Except as otherwise provided
in your Employment Agreement (as defined below), in the event that your
employment or service with the Company is terminated for any reason, including,
but not limited to, your death, disability, resignation or retirement, at any
time before the First Award Date, you will forfeit any and all eligibility for
payments pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 On
April 1, 2005 (the “Second Award Date”), you will be paid an additional
$250,000 of the LTSO Payment, minus the deductions required by law, provided
that you have remained continuously employed by the Company from April 1, 1999
through March 31, 2005. Except as otherwise provided in your Employment
Agreement, in the event that your employment or service with the Company is
terminated for any reason, including, but not limited to, your death,
disability, resignation or retirement, at any time after the First

 

 

Long-Term Stay-On
Performance Plan

April 1, 2002

 

Award Date but
before the Second Award Date, you will forfeit any and all eligibility for
remaining payments pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  On
April 1, 2007 (the “Third Award Date”), you will be paid an additional
$250,000 of the LTSO Payment, minus the deductions required by law, provided
that you have remained continuously employed by the Company from April 1, 1999
through March 31, 2007.  Except as
otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement, in the event that your
employment with the company is terminated for any reason, including, but not
limited to, death, disability, resignation or retirement, at any time after the
Second Award Date but before the Third Award Date, you will forfeit any and all
eligibility for remaining payments pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(d)                                 On
April 1, 2009 (the “Fourth Award Date”), you will be paid the remaining
$250,000 of the LTSO Payment, minus the deductions required by law, provided
that you have remained continuously employed by the Company from April 1, 1999
through March 31, 2009.  Except as
otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement, in the event that your
employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, including, but not
limited to, your death, disability, resignation or retirement, at any time
after the Second Award Date but before the Third Award Date, you will forfeit
any and all eligibility for remaining payments pursuant to this Agreement

 

3.                                       Employment Agreement.  The LTSO Payment is conditioned
upon your signing an employment agreement with the Company, which shall be
dated as of April 1, 2002 (the “Employment Agreement”).  If at any time prior to the Fourth Award
Date, you breach any term of the Employment Agreement, you will forfeit any and
all rights to any and all remaining payments under this Agreement as of the
date of such breach.

 

4.                                       Right to Continued Employment or Service.  Nothing
in this Agreement shall confer on you any right to continue in the employ of or
service to the Company or, except as may otherwise be limited by a written
agreement between the Company and you, in any way affect the Company’s right to
terminate your employment or service without prior notice at any time for any
or no reason.

 

5.                                       Confidentiality.  As a condition of your receipt
of the LTSO Payment, you agree that you will not disclose the contents of this
Agreement, including the amount of the LTSO Payment, to anyone except your
immediate family, accountant or attorney without the prior written consent of
the Company.  If you breach this
obligation, you will forfeit any and all rights to any and all payments under
this Agreement.

 

6.                                       Governing Law.  The validity, construction,
interpretation and effect of this Agreement shall exclusively be governed by
and determined in accordance with

 

2

 

the law of the State of Nevada (without reference to the principles of
conflict of laws thereof), except to the extent preempted by federal law, which
shall govern to that extent.

 

7.                                       Assignability; Binding Nature.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs and
assigns; provided, however, that no rights or obligations of you under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by you, other than rights to
compensation and benefits hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or
operation of law and subject to the limitations of this Agreement.

person shall result in termination without further notice or opportunity to
cure.

Parent and GCR Guarantor collectively agree that, during any period under the
Expansion Loan Documents, including any Pledge/Guaranty Documents, the Members,
Parent or GCR Guarantor are required to “stand still” with respect to claims
against one another, each party agrees not to assert the statute of limitations
as a defense to an action brought by another party to the extent such statute
of limitations applies solely because of such “stand still” and the parties

any such party is required to “stand still.”

 

(D)          Other
Amendments to Operating Agreement.

The Manager shall, to the extent Company funds are available following
allocation pursuant to Section 3.4(k), set aside within 15
days following the end of each Fiscal Month after Opening an amount equal to
three percent (3%) of Gross Revenues for such Fiscal Month, which amounts shall
be deposited into the Reserve Fund to pay for Capital Improvements and
Replacements; however, to the extent that there is borrowing availability under
the Expansion Financing or Permanent Financing, as the case may be, in an
amount equal to or greater than the amount then required to be deposited in the
Reserve Fund, then the Manager may, to the maximum extent permitted under the
Expansion Financing or Permanent Financing, maintain borrowing availability
from such credit facility to be drawn in lieu of such “cash-funded” Reserve
Fund.  To the extent that the Manager so
maintains borrowing availability under the Expansion Financing or Permanent
Financing for the Reserve Fund, then neither Member shall have any obligation
to make additional Capital Contributions pursuant to Section 4.2(c).

 

4

 

(iii)          Section 3.4(k)(ii) is amended to

Documents or the Permanent Loan Documents, or (iii) that is reasonably likely
to materially expand the liability of, or materially diminish the rights of,
the Company or any Guarantor under the Construction Loan Documents, Expansion
Loan Documents or Permanent Financing Documents.”

 

(v)           The first sentence of Section
4.2 is amended by the insertion of the words “, Expansion
Financing” after the words “Construction Financing”.

 

(vi)          The first sentence of Section 4.2.(e) is amended to read as
follows:

 

The Members acknowledge that the Members, Parent, GCR
Guarantor and/or other affiliates of GCR (“GCR Affiliates”) may execute (i) a
Make-Well Agreement, Completion Guaranty, Pledge Agreement, Indemnity
Agreement, or similar surety or guaranty documents in connection with the Construction
Financing, (ii) a Make-Well Agreement, Completion Guaranty, Pledge Agreement,
Indemnity Agreement, or similar surety or guaranty documents in connection with
the Expansion Financing, or (iii) a Make-Well Agreement, Pledge Agreement or
similar surety or guaranty document in connection with the Permanent Financing
(individually a “Pledge/Guaranty Document” and
collectively the “Pledge/Guaranty Documents”; GCR, GCR
Guarantor and GCR Affiliates collectively hereinafter may be referred to as the
“GCR
Pledgors”; and, Station and Parent collectively hereinafter may
be referred to as the “Station Pledgors”).

 

(vii)         Section 4.2(e) is further amended to
provide that, other than in the first sentence, the words “, Expansion

Members, Parent,

 

5

 

GCR Guarantor or GCR Affiliates under other loan documents or by reason
of bankruptcy or similar event (a “Cure Pledge”).

 

(ix)           Section 4.3(f) is amended by deleting
the sentence added pursuant to the First Amendment and inserting in lieu
thereof: “Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Station may not resign
as Manager without GCR’s prior written consent (which may be given or withheld
in GCR’s sole discretion) if such resignation would cause a termination of the
commitment for or an acceleration of the Construction Financing, Expansion
Financing or Permanent Financing.”

 

(x)            Section 4.3(g) is amended by inserting
the phrase: “, Expansion Financing” after the words ““Construction
Financing” and the phrase “, Expansion Loan Documents” after the phrase
“Construction Loan Documents”.

 

(xi)           Section 4.5(a) is amended to insert the
words “, Expansion Loan Documents” after the words “Construction Loan
Documents”.

 

(xii)          Section 5.2(a)  is amended to insert the
words “, Expansion Financing” after the words “Construction Financing”.

 

4.             Distributions.  For the time commencing on the Effective
Date and terminating on the 7th anniversary of the Effective Date,
the following shall apply in lieu of Section 4.5(a) as originally stated in
the Original Operating Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment.  After the 7th anniversary of the
Effective Date, Section 4.5(a)
as originally stated in the Original Operating Agreement, as amended by the
First Amendment, but without regard to this Second Amendment, shall apply as if
this Section 4 of the Second Amendment had no force or effect.

 

(a)           Distributions
Prior to Liquidation.  Subject to
any limitations in the Expansion Financing or Permanent Financing,
Distributable Cash shall be disbursed or distributed to the Members 25 days
after the end of each calendar quarter in an amount equal to Distributable Cash
less Additional Reserves (which Additional Reserve may include unencumbered
funds from the Expansion Financing or Permanent Financing, as the case may be,
to the maximum extent permitted under such financing) and in the following
order:

 

(i)            First, to the
Members pro rata in accordance with the accrued but undistributed Twenty-Five
Percent Payment Amount on Default Amounts until each Member who is entitled to
the Twenty-Five Percent Payment Amount shall have received (giving effect to
all distributions pursuant to this Section 4.5(a)(i) in the current and all
prior Fiscal Years) an amount equal to the Twenty-Five Percent Payment Amount.

 

(ii)           Second, to the
Members, pro rata in accordance with each Member’s share of unreturned Default
Contributions until each Member shall have received (giving effect to all
distributions pursuant to this Section 4.5(a)(ii) in the current and previous
Fiscal

 

6

 

Years) an amount equal to such Member’s Default Contributions.

 

(iii)          Third, to the
Members pro rata in accordance with each Member’s share of unreturned Capital
Contributions (other than Default Contributions) until each Member shall have
received (giving effect to all distributions pursuant to this Section
4.5(a)(iii) in the current and previous Fiscal Years) an amount equal to such
Member’s Capital Contributions (other than Default Contributions).

 

(iv)          Fourth, to the
Members, pro rata in accordance with each Member’s percentage of Membership
Interests.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, taking into account distributions made
with respect to the Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(iii) and (iv),
the Company shall distribute to each Member on an annual basis not later than
120 days following the end of each Fiscal Year an amount equal to 40% of the
Profits allocated to such Member for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section
4.4(a).  Distributions to
Members pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be an advance of and credited
against distributions to Members under this Agreement in the order that such
distributions would be made pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(iii) and (iv) and Section
6.2(c).

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the
extent that any Member is owed a distribution pursuant to Section 4.5, but a
Default Loan or any Default Loan Interest obligation remains outstanding, all
payments due to such Member shall be paid to the Member who is deemed to have
made the Default Loan until an amount equal to the Default Loan plus the
Default Loan Interest has been paid to the such Member.  Further, notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any distribution required to be
made hereunder (X) to a non-defaulting Member with respect to any Default Loan,
Default Loan Interest, Twenty-Five Percent Payment Amount, Default Contribution
or Default Distribution, or (Y) to the Company with respect to a Retained
Distribution, is, instead, paid to any lender or other Person pursuant to any
Construction Loan Documents, Expansion Loan Documents or Permanent Loan
Documents, then the amount of such Default Loan, Default Loan Interest,
Twenty-Five Percent Payment Amount or Default Contribution shall not be deemed
paid or reduced by such distribution and such obligation shall continue as if
such distribution were not made.

 

5.             Guaranties.  GCR Guarantor and Parent agree to execute
the respective Second Amendment to Guaranty attached hereto as Exhibits
A and B, as the case may be. 
As used in the Operating Agreement, the term “Guaranty” shall
include the original Guaranty, as amended by the First Amendment to Guaranty
and the Second Amendment to Guaranty.

 

7

 

6.             Representations. GCR,
Station, GCR Guarantor and Parent each severally represents and warrants that:

generally, and except that the availability of equitable remedies is subject to
judicial discretion).

consent, approval, order, license, authorization or validation of, or filing,
recording or registration with, or exemption of or by any person or entity is
required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this

nor compliance by such party with the terms and provisions hereof will:  (i) contravene any applicable provision
of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction or

interest or other lien upon any of the property or assets of such party
pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other
instrument to which such party is a party or by which such party or any of its
property or assets is bound or may be subject.

 

7.             Miscellaneous.

 

(A)          Except
as modified by this Second Amendment, the Operating Agreement is ratified in
all respects.  In the event of a

of this Second Amendment shall control.

Second Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall

Station, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Station”).  Guarantor, Station and the Company desire to consent to the
amendment of the Guaranty as set forth in this Second Amendment to Guaranty,
dated December 19, 2003 (this “Second Amendment”).

 

1.             Guarantied Obligations.  The first full paragraph of the Guaranty is
deleted and the following inserted in lieu thereof:

 

The undersigned GCR
Gaming Guarantor, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Guarantor”),
and an affiliate of GCR Gaming, LLC (“GCR”), a Nevada limited liability
company, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the payment and
performance (A) by GCR pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Operating
Agreement, dated March 10, 2000 (the “Agreement”), as amended by the First
Amendment to Operating Agreement, dated September  17, 2001, and the
Second Amendment to Operating Agreement, dated December 19, 2003 (as amended,
the “Agreement”)
of Green Valley Ranch Gaming, LLC (the “Company”), to the same
extent that GCR is bound thereby, (B) by GCR and Guarantor of their obligations
under the Pledge/Guaranty Documents, (C) by GCR to pay any Default Loan and any
Default Loan Interest arising from a failure by GCR to make a Required Guaranty
Payment, (D) by GCR of the Twenty-Five Percent Payment (to the extent that the
same is owing under the Agreement) for the period commencing on the date on
which GCR’s payment obligation begins and ending on the earlier to occur of (a)
one year from such date, and (b) the date on which such payment obligation
which GCR fails to make in breach of Section 4.2 of the Agreement has
been satisfied, and (E) of all costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and
costs of in-house counsel) incurred in enforcing this Guaranty resulting from a
default by GCR or Guarantor under any of the Pledge/Guaranty Agreements or this
Agreement.  (Any term with its initial
letter capitalized and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning
ascribed to it in the Agreement.)  This
Guaranty is for the

 

A-1

 

benefit of (i) the
Company with respect to subparagraphs (A), (B), (D) and (E) above, and (ii)
Station with respect to subparagraphs (A), (B), (C), (D) and (E)  above. 
The amounts guaranteed by this Guaranty shall be limited as follows: (i)
so long as any monetary obligations under the Construction Financing or
Expansion Financing (if any) remain outstanding or liens securing the same are
in effect, $21,400,000.00, and (ii) from and after the payment in full of the
Construction Financing and Expansion Financing (and the release of all liens
securing the same and termination of all agreements related thereto), the
obligations guaranteed hereby shall be limited to those set forth in Sections
4.2(b) and 4.2(c) of the Agreement and subparagraph (E) above
and shall be limited to $15,000,000.00 in aggregate; provided, however, that
the amounts guarantied hereby shall not be reduced as set forth in this
sentence until all Default Loans, Default Loan Interest and Twenty-Five Percent
Payment owing to Station are paid in full.

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing paragraph, the undersigned irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees, without dollar limitation, the payment and performance of GCR’s
obligations, including indemnity obligations, set forth in Section 4.2(f)  of
the Agreement.

 

2.             Representations.  Guarantor represents and warrants that:

 

(a)          It has full limited liability company
power and authority to enter into and perform this Second Amendment;

 

(b)          The execution, delivery and
performance of this Second Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary

equityholders;

 

(c)          This Second Amendment has been duly
executed and delivered by a duly authorized manager of such party and
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such party enforceable
in accordance with its respective terms (except as enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting
creditor’s rights generally, and except that the availability of equitable
remedies is subject to judicial discretion);

 

(d)          No consent, approval, order, license,
authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or
exemption of or by any person or entity is required in connection with the
execution, delivery and performance of this Second Amendment by such party; and

 

(e)          Neither the execution, delivery or
performance by such party of this Second Amendment, nor compliance by such
party with the terms and provisions hereof will:  (i) contravene any
applicable provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order,
writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, or
(ii) conflict with or be

provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or
imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any security interest or
other lien upon any of the property or assets of such party pursuant to the
terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which
such party is a party or by which such party or any of its property or assets
is bound or may be subject.

 

3.             Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          Except as modified by this Second
Amendment, the Guaranty is ratified in all respects.  In the event of a conflict between the Guaranty, as amended by
the First Amendment, and this Second Amendment, the terms of this Second
Amendment shall control.  This Second
Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original.  This Second
Amendment and the Guaranty, as amended by the First Amendment, may not be
amended or modified, except in a writing executed by Station, Guarantor and the
Company.

 

(b)          Notwithstanding anything in the
Guaranty or this Second Amendment to the contrary, Station and the Company
acknowledge that the assets of Guarantor may be pledged pursuant to documents
evidencing or securing the Construction Financing, Expansion Financing or
Permanent Financing.

WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Second Amendment as of the date and
year first written above.
