in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall be presumed correct. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) Notes, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Notes and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i)Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.03 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the Base Rate. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may

have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the Borrowing set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 12.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 12.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 12.04(c).

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of accrued interest

thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) make such adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement.

Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender agrees that it shall not exercise any right of setoff or counterclaim referred to herein without first obtaining the consent of the Required Lenders.

2.14 Collateral. (a) The Loans, together with all other Obligations (other than (i) those Obligations in respect of Swap Contracts in excess of a notional amount of $150,000,000 at any one time and (ii) with respect to Mortgages encumbering Special Real Property Collateral only, those Obligations under Swap Contracts that are not expressly included in the obligations secured by such Mortgages) shall be secured by the Liens created by the Collateral Documents. (b) The Loans, together with all other Obligations (other than those in respect of Swap Contracts in excess of a notional amount of $150,000,000 at any one time), shall be entitled to the benefit of the Guaranty in respect of such Obligations.

2.15 Intentionally Omitted.

2.16 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, that Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be restricted as set forth in Section 12.01.

ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Withholding Gross-Up. Each payment of any amount payable by Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction by reason of, any Taxes, excluding (i) Taxes imposed on or measured in whole or in part by overall net income, gross income or gross receipts, (ii) franchise Taxes imposed on any Lender by (A) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which it is organized or maintains its principal office or

Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans or (B) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which it is “doing business”, (iii) any withholding Taxes or other Taxes based on gross income imposed by the United States of America that are not attributable to any change in any Law or the interpretation or administration of any Law by any Governmental Authority and (iv) any withholding Tax or other Taxes based on gross income imposed by the United States of America for any period with respect to which it has failed to provide Borrower with the appropriate form or forms required by Section 3.01(b), to the extent such forms are then available under applicable Laws (all such non-excluded Taxes being hereinafter referred to as “Included Taxes”). To the extent that Borrower or any other Loan Party is obligated by applicable Laws to make any deduction or withholding on account of Included Taxes from any amount payable to any Lender under this Agreement, they shall (i) make such deduction or withholding and pay the same to the relevant Governmental Authority and (ii) pay such additional amount to that Lender as is necessary to result in that Lender’s receiving a net after-Included Tax amount equal to the amount to which that Lender would have been entitled under this Agreement absent such deduction or withholding. If and when receipt of such payment results in an excess payment or credit to that Lender on account of such Included Taxes, that Lender shall promptly refund such excess to Borrower or the relevant Loan Party.

(b) Tax Withholding Exemption Certificates. Each Lender which is organized outside the United States of America shall deliver to Borrower a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN and any other certificate or statement required by applicable Laws to establish that payments due to such Lender under the Loan Documents are (a) not subject to withholding under the Code because such payments are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States of America or (b) totally exempt from United States tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty.

3.02 Illegality. If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of a Change in Law shall, in the opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful, impossible or impracticable for such Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or materially restrict the ability of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, dollars in the Designated Market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, then such Lender’s obligation to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended for the duration of such illegality, impossibility or impracticability and the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to the other Lenders and Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, automatically shall be converted to Base Rate Loans on either (1) the last day of the Interest Period(s) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans if such Lender may lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day(s) or (2) immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day(s), provided that in such event the conversion shall not be subject to payment of compensation under Section 3.05. In the event that any Lender is unable, for the reasons set forth above, to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, such

Lender shall fund such amount as a Base Rate Loan for the same period of time, and such amount shall be treated in all respects as a Base Rate Loan.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If, with respect to any proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan:

(a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the Designated Market generally that are beyond the reasonable control of the Lenders, deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to each of the Lenders in the Designated Market for the applicable Interest Period; or

(b) the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent (i) does not represent the effective pricing to such Lenders for deposits in dollars in the Designated Market in the relevant amount for the applicable Interest Period, or (ii) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans;

then the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be suspended. Any Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding at the commencement of any such suspension shall be converted at the end of the then current Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans, unless such suspension has then ended.

3.04 Increased Costs. If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any Change in Law:

(a) shall subject any Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans to any tax, duty or other charge or cost with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, any Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loan or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, any Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans (except for changes in any tax on the overall net income, gross income or gross receipts of such Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans);

(b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirements against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans; or

(c) shall impose on any Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans or the Designated Market any other condition affecting any Eurodollar Rate Loan, any Note, its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or this Agreement, or shall otherwise affect any of the same;

and the result of any of the foregoing, as determined by such Lender, increases the cost to such Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan or in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, any Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, any Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans (assuming such Lender’s Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Loan in the Designated Market), then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction (determined as though such Lender’s Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Loan in the Designated Market). A statement of any Lender claiming compensation under this subsection, providing supporting calculation, and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual knowledge occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04, and agrees to designate a different Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans promptly if such designation will avoid the need for or reduce the amount of such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. If any Lender claims compensation under this Section, Borrower may at any time, upon at least four Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender and upon payment in full of the amounts provided for in this Section 3.04 through the date of such payment plus any compensation required by Section 3.05, pay in full the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender or request that such Eurodollar Rate Loans be converted to Base Rate Loans.

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan (other than as the result of a conversion required under Section 3.02), on a day other than the last day in the applicable Interest Period (whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), Borrower shall pay to the appropriate Lender a prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee, as the case may be, calculated as follows (and determined as though 100% of the Eurodollar Rate Loan had been funded in the Designated Market):

(a) principal amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loan, times the number of days between the date of prepayment or failure to borrow and the last day in the applicable Interest Period, divided by 360, times the applicable Interest Differential; plus

(b) all actual out-of-pocket expenses (other than those taken into account in the calculation of the Interest Differential) incurred by the Lender (excluding allocations of any expense internal to that Lender) and reasonably attributable to such payment,

prepayment or failure to borrow;

provided that no prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee shall be payable (and no credit or rebate shall be required) if the product of the foregoing formula is not a positive number. Each Lender’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee payable under this Section 3.05 shall be based upon the Administrative Agent’s determination of the applicable Interest Differential but shall otherwise be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

3.06 Increased Capital Requirements. If any Lender shall have determined that the introduction after the date hereof of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by that Lender (or its Lending Office for Eurodollar Rate Loans) or any corporation controlling that Lender, with any request, guidelines or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such central bank or other authority, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by that Lender or any corporation controlling that Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Lender, Borrower shall immediately pay to that Lender, from time to time as specified by that Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate that Lender for such increase.

3.07 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04 or 3.06, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender does not consent to a requested waiver or amendment that requires the approval of all of the Lenders or all affected Lenders and which is consented to by the Required Lenders, or if any Lender shall at any time be a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 12.13.

3.08 Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under Sections 3.02, 3.03, 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall survive for one year following the date on which all Loans hereunder are fully paid; provided, however, that such obligations shall not, from and after the date on which all Loans hereunder are fully paid, be deemed secured Obligations for any purpose under the Loan Documents.

ARTICLE V
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE TRIBE

In order to induce the Creditors to enter into this Agreement, the Tribe represents and warrants to the Creditors that, as of the Closing Date (but not as of any date subsequent thereto):

5.01 Existence and Qualification; Power; Compliance With Laws. The Tribe is federally recognized as an Indian Tribe pursuant to a determination of the Assistant Secretary - Indian Affairs, dated March 7, 1994, published in the Federal Register on March 15, 1994, as amended by a correction dated July 1, 1994, published in the Federal Register on July 20, 1994, and as an Indian Tribal government pursuant to Sections 7701(a)(40)(A) and 7871(a) of Title 26 of the Code. As of the Closing Date, the Tribe is a non-taxable entity for purposes of federal income taxation under the Code. The Tribe has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver each Loan Document to which it is a party and to perform its respective Obligations. The Tribe is in material compliance with the terms of the Compact, the Gaming Authority Ordinance, the Gaming Ordinance and with all Laws and other legal requirements applicable to its existence and business (including, without limitation, IGRA and all Gaming Laws). The Tribe has obtained all authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses and permits from, and have accomplished all filings, registrations and qualifications with, or obtained exemptions from any of the foregoing from, any Governmental Authority that are necessary for the transaction of its business, except, in each case, where the failure so to comply, to obtain such authority, consents, approvals, orders, licenses and permits, or to file, register, qualify or obtain exemptions does not constitute a Material Adverse Effect. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party are each “Contracts of the Tribal Gaming Authority” within the meaning of Section 1 of Article XIII (entitled “Tribal Gaming Authority Amendment”) of the Constitution.

5.02 Authority; Compliance With Other Agreements and Instruments and Government Regulations. The execution, delivery and performance by the Tribe of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary Tribal Council, Management Board and other action, and do not:

(a) require any consent or approval not heretofore obtained of any enrolled tribal member, Tribal Council member, Management Board member, security holder or creditor;

(b) violate or conflict with any provision of the Constitution, charter, bylaws or other governing documents of the Tribe or of Borrower;

(c) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than pursuant to the Collateral Documents) upon or with respect to any Authority Property

now owned or leased or hereafter acquired;

(d) violate any Law or Requirement of Law, including any Gaming Law, applicable to the Tribe in any material respect;

(e) constitute a “transfer of an interest” or an “obligation incurred” that is avoidable by a trustee under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, as amended, or constitute a “fraudulent conveyance,” “fraudulent obligation” or “fraudulent transfer” within the meanings of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyances Act or Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, as enacted in any applicable jurisdiction;

(f) result in a material breach of or default under, or would, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, constitute a material breach of or default under, or cause or permit the acceleration of any obligation owed under, any mortgage, indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other Contractual Obligation to which the Tribe is a party or by which the Tribe or any of its Property is bound or affected; or

(g) require any consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, or any notice to, registration or qualification with any Governmental Authority, not heretofore obtained or obtained concurrently with the Closing Date;

and the Tribe is not in violation of, or default under, any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation, or any indenture, loan or credit agreement described in Section 5.02(f) in any respect that constitutes a Material Adverse Effect.

5.03 No Governmental Approvals Required. No authorization, consent, approval, order, license or permit from, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize or permit under applicable Laws the execution, delivery and performance by the Tribe of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, other than such as have been obtained on or prior to the Closing Date.

5.04 The Nature of Borrower. All activities of the Tribe constituting or relating to the ownership and operation of gaming facilities (including all class II and class III gaming activities within the meaning of IGRA) at Mohegan Sun and all activities of the Tribe constituting or relating to the ownership of hotel, restaurant, entertainment and resort facilities included within Mohegan Sun are conducted and owned by Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the authority granted to Borrower in the Gaming Authority Ordinance, other than the basketball operations carried on by, and the related assets owned by, the WNBA Subsidiary.

5.05 No Management Contract. Neither this Agreement nor the other Loan Documents, taken individually or as a whole, constitute “management contracts” or “management agreements” within the meaning of Section 12 of IGRA and related regulations, or deprive the Tribe and Borrower of the sole proprietary interest and responsibility of the conduct of gaming activity at Mohegan Sun.

5.06 Intentionally Omitted.

5.07 Real Property. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 5.07 sets forth a summary description of all real property owned by the Tribe which is Authority Property, including all of the land underlying Mohegan Sun, and of all real property leasehold estates held by Borrower from the Tribe, which summary is accurate and complete in all material respects. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.07, the leases creating such real property leasehold estates are in full force and effect and create a valid leasehold estate on the terms of such lease, and the Tribe is not in default or breach of any material provision thereof. The copies of such real property leases heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent are true copies and there are no amendments thereto as of the Closing Date copies of which have not been furnished to the Administrative Agent.

5.08 Intentionally Omitted.

5.09 Binding Obligations. The Loan Documents to which the Tribe is a party have been executed and delivered by the Tribe, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Tribe, enforceable against the Tribe in accordance with their terms. The provisions of Section 12.15 are specifically enforceable against the Tribe, Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

5.10 No Default. No event has occurred and is continuing that is a Default or an Event of Default.

5.11 Disclosure. No written statement made by or on behalf of the Tribe to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement, or in connection with any Loan, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary in order to make the statement made not misleading in light of all the circumstances existing at the date the statement was made (including all other information disclosed by the Tribe, Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries theretofore). There is no fact known to the Tribe (other than matters of a general economic nature or matters generally applicable to businesses of the types engaged in by Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) which would constitute a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

5.12 Gaming Laws. The Tribe is in material compliance with all applicable Gaming Laws.

5.15 Recourse Obligations. Under current Law, no obligation of the Tribe of any type or nature may be recourse to Borrower unless and to the extent that Borrower has become an express obligor with respect thereto, and the Tribe has no authority, independent of Borrower, to incur any obligation on behalf of Borrower, to bind any Authority Property, or to grant Liens upon any Authority Property.

5.16 No Pending Referendum. No Tribal law permits any tribal member to challenge by referendum or initiative any action of the Tribal Council authorizing and approving the execution and delivery of any Loan Document or the application of the proceeds of the Loans (“Referendum Action”). No Referendum Action is, to the Tribe’s knowledge, threatened or pending which would reduce the obligations of the Tribe or Borrower under the Loan Documents or impair the enforceability of the Loan Documents or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders thereunder or cause a Material Adverse Effect.

5.17 Allocation Plan. Subject to the making of the Priority Distributions, all revenues of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries are available to make payments required under the Loan Documents and such required payments under the Loan Documents are required to be paid as and when due prior to any applicable allocation of such revenues under the Allocation Plan or other applicable law.

ARTICLE XI
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

11.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders (on its own behalf or on behalf of any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Secured Swap Contact) hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting as administrative agent for the Lenders only and the Administrative Agent is not acting as administrative agent for any Affiliate of any Lender party to a Secured Swap Contract; such Affiliates that are receiving the benefit of the Collateral are receiving such benefit as an accommodation from the Administrative Agent in its capacity as collateral agent for such Affiliates and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to such Affiliates.

11.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Tribe, Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

11.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

112

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Tribe, Borrower or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 12.01 and 10.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by Borrower or a Lender.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

11.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In

113

determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Tribe or Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

11.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

11.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may (or, upon the request of the Required Lenders at any time when the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall) at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 12.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions

114

taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

11.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

11.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents or the Co-Documentation Agents shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

11.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 12.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 12.04.

115

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

11.10 SNDA’s. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders, without notice to or consent from the Lenders, to execute and deliver SNDA’s in favor of any tenant of Borrower at Mohegan Sun, Pocono Downs or any other property.

11.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion (but subject to the automatic releases of Liens and the Guaranty provided for in Section 12.26),

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) that is sold, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of or to be sold, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition not prohibited hereunder or under any other Loan Document including, without limitation, the Permitted Pocono Transaction, or (iii) subject to Section 12.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 9.01(d); and

(c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of Borrower as a result of a transaction not prohibited hereunder.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 11.11.

11.12 Intercreditor Agreements. Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that it has received and reviewed each of the General Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof. Each Lender (and each Person that becomes a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 12.06) hereby (i) acknowledges that Wells Fargo is acting under the General Intercreditor Agreement and First Lien Intercreditor Agreement in multiple capacities as the administrative agent and collateral agent and (ii) waives any conflict of interest, now contemplated or arising hereafter, in connection therewith and agrees not to assert against Wells Fargo any claims, causes of action, damages or liabilities of

116

whatever kind or nature relating thereto. Each Lender (and each Person that becomes a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 12.06) hereby authorizes and directs Wells Fargo to enter into the General Intercreditor Agreement and First Lien Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender and agrees that Wells Fargo, in its various capacities thereunder, may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of either such Intercreditor Agreement.

No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

121

To the extent that Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, but without affecting Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect thereto, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

12.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the

122

obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

12.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Tribe, Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case of any assignments of Term Loans, the principal outstanding balance of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified

123

in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within seven (7) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided, further, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single assignee (or to an assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans assigned;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and, after giving effect to such assignment, the assignee, together with its Affiliates, would not hold more than 20.0% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Term Loans, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within seven (7) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(B) in respect of the Term Loans, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) subject to Section 12.06(b)(vii), to Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person

124

who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii) Affiliated Lender.

(A) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Person who, after giving effect to such assignment, would be an Affiliated Lender (without the consent of any Person but subject to acknowledgment by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower); provided that (x) except as previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, each Affiliated Lender represents and warrants as of the date of any assignment to such Affiliated Lender pursuant to this Section 12.06(b)(vii), that the Affiliated Lender does not have any material non-public information (“MNPI”) with respect to any Loan Party or its securities that both (1) has not been disclosed to the assigning Lender (other than because such assigning Lender does not wish to receive MNPI with respect to any Loan Party) prior to such date and (2) could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material, to a Lender’s decision to assign Term Loans to such Affiliated Lender, and (y) after giving effect to such assignment, such Affiliated Lender, together with its Affiliates, would not hold more than 20.0% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Term Loans.

(B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (x) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, or (y) receive any information or material prepared by Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives.

(C) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, all affected Lenders or all Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, an Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders; and in furtherance of the foregoing, (x) the Affiliated Lender agrees to execute

125

and deliver to the Administrative Agent any instrument reasonably re-quested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the voting of its interest as a Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.06(b)(vii); provided that if the Affiliated Lender fails to promptly execute such instrument such failure shall in no way prejudice any of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this paragraph and (y) the Administrative Agent is hereby appointed (such appointment being coupled with an interest) by the Affiliated Lender as the Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Affiliated Lender and in the name of the Affiliated Lender, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 12.06(b)(vii).

(D) Each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that, if any Loan Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Laws ("Bankruptcy Proceedings"), (i) such Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Affiliated Lender's claim with respect to its Loans (a "Claim") (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) and (ii) with respect to any matter requiring the vote of Lenders during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including, without limitation, voting on any plan of reorganization), the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender (and any Claim with respect thereto) shall be applied in accordance with Section 12.06(b)(vii)(C) above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Affiliated Lender agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this clause (D) of Section 12.06(b)(vii) constitute a "subordination agreement" as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Loan Party has filed for protection under any Debtor Relief Law applicable to such Loan Party.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 12.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does

126

not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and principal amounts of the Loans pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 12.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless Borrower is notified of the

127

participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(b) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

12.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any

128

Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws.

12.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

12.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

129

12.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement (and any of the other Loan Documents) may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by electronic mail or telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

12.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered by the Tribe or any Loan Party pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

12.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04 or 3.06, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender does not consent to a requested waiver or amendment that requires the approval of all of the Lenders or all affected Lenders and which is consented to by the Required Lenders, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

130

(a) Borrower or the replacement Lender shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or 3.06 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

12.14 Governing Law. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided therein, each Loan Document shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of Connecticut, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the Laws of Connecticut, provided however, that if and only to the extent that any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed exempt from the provisions of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Connecticut, C.G.S. § 42a-9 101, et seq., by virtue of Borrower being a governmental entity, then such security interest shall be governed by the corresponding provisions of Article 9 of the Tribe’s Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by the UCC Ordinance. Borrower and each other party hereto each hereby consents to the application of Connecticut civil law to the construction, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to the application of Connecticut civil law to the procedural aspects of any suit, action or proceeding relating thereto, including but not limited to legal process, execution of judgments and other legal remedies, except for any procedural matters governed by or relating to the conduct of arbitration under Section 12.15. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party are each “Contracts of The Tribal Gaming Authority” within the meaning of Section 1 of Article XIII (entitled “Tribal Gaming Authority Amendment”) of the Constitution.

12.15 Arbitration Reference.

(a) Mandatory Arbitration. At the option of the Administrative Agent (exercised in accordance with consent of the Required Lenders), Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or, to the extent it is a party to any such controversy or claim, the

131

Tribe, any controversy or claim between or among the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreements or instruments relating hereto or delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrators shall give effect to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrators. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(b) Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this section shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to foreclose against or sell any real or personal property collateral or security or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of any party to resort to arbitration or reference. At the Required Lenders’ option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.

(c) Limitation. This Section shall not be construed to require arbitration by the Creditors of any disputes which now exist or hereafter arise amongst themselves which do not involve the Tribe, Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries and are not related to this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

(d) Specific Enforcement Representation. Each party to this Agreement severally represents and warrants to the other parties that this Section 12.15 is specifically enforceable against such party by the other parties.

12.16 PURPORTED ORAL AMENDMENTS. THE TRIBE, BORROWER AND THE CREDITORS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY ONLY BE AMENDED OR MODIFIED, OR THE PROVISIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF WAIVED OR SUPPLEMENTED, BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING THAT COMPLIES WITH SECTION 12.01. EACH OF THE TRIBE AND BORROWER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT RELY ON ANY COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR ORAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS BY ANY REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY CREDITOR THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH SECTION 12.01 TO EFFECT AN AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, WAIVER OR SUPPLEMENT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

132

12.17 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

12.18 WAIVER OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

(a) BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY OF BORROWER AND EACH OF ITS RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES (AND ANY DEFENSE BASED THEREON) FROM ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OF NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION, EXECUTION, EXERCISE OF CONTEMPT POWERS, OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY FORUM, WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, PROVIDED THAT (1) THE WAIVER CONTAINED IN THIS CLAUSE (A) IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO ACTIONS AGAINST BORROWER AND ITS RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES AND (2) ANY RECOVERY UPON ANY JUDGMENT RESULTING THEREFROM SHALL BE LIMITED TO RECOVERY AGAINST THE AUTHORITY PROPERTY, INCLUDING THE REVENUES OF BORROWER AND ITS RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

(b) THE TRIBE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ITS OWN SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY (APPLICABLE TO ITSELF AS AN INDIAN TRIBAL NATION) (AND ANY DEFENSE BASED THEREON) FROM ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OF NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION, EXECUTION, EXERCISE OF CONTEMPT POWERS, OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE TRIBE SET FORTH IN ARTICLE V, THE COVENANTS OF THE TRIBE SET FORTH IN ARTICLE VII, AND EACH PROVISION OF SECTION 10.01 WHICH RELATES TO AN EVENT OF DEFAULT CAUSED BY THE TRIBE’S BREACH OF ANY SUCH REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT, IT BEING EXPRESSLY

133

UNDERSTOOD THAT (1) THE WAIVERS AND CONSENTS CONTAINED IN THIS CLAUSE (B) ARE NOT LIMITED TO ACTIONS AGAINST BORROWER AND ITS RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES, (2) ANY ACTION DESCRIBED IN THIS CLAUSE (B) MAY BE BROUGHT AGAINST THE TRIBE, AND (3) ANY RECOVERY UPON ANY JUDGMENT RESULTING FROM ANY SUCH ACTION MAY BE HAD AGAINST THE ASSETS AND REVENUES OF THE TRIBE IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH SECTION 12.19.

(c) EACH OF THE TRIBE AND BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT AND THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES SITTING IN THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT.

(d) THE WAIVERS AND CONSENTS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION SHALL INURE TO THE BENEFIT OF THE CREDITORS AND EACH OTHER PERSON WHO IS ENTITLED TO THE BENEFITS OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE INDEMNITEES REFERRED TO IN SECTION 12.04). SUBJECT TO SECTIONS 12.19 AND 12.27 THE CREDITORS AND SUCH OTHER PERSONS SHALL HAVE AND BE ENTITLED TO ALL AVAILABLE LEGAL AND EQUITABLE REMEDIES, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, MONEY DAMAGES AND INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF. THE WAIVERS OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY AND CONSENTS TO JURISDICTION CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION ARE IRREVOCABLE.
