                             wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("SINA" and, together

               WHEREAS the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee heretofore executed and
delivered an Indenture dated as of March 10, 1997 (the "Indenture"), in respect of the
Issuers' 9.000% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007;

               WHEREAS Section 9.2 of the Indenture provides that the Issuers and the Trustee
may amend the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities then outstanding;

               WHEREAS the Issuers desire to amend the Indenture, as set forth in Article I
hereof;

               WHEREAS the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the

               WHEREAS this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by all necessary

               NOW, THEREFORE, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee agree as follows
for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities:


                                          ARTICLE I
                                          Amendments

               SECTION 1.01.  Amendment to Section 4.3 (Limitation on Restricted Payments).
Section 4.3 of the Indenture is amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

               "Section 4.3  Limitation on Restricted Payments.
                             ----------------------------------

                      The Issuers and the Guarantors, shall not, and shall not permit any of
               their Subsidiaries to, individually or collectively, directly or indirectly,
               make any Restricted Payment if, after giving effect to such Restricted Payment
               on a pro forma basis, (i) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred
               and be continuing, (ii) Sun International is not permitted to incur at least
               $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt Incurrence Ratio
               contained in Section 4.10 or (iii) the aggregate amount of all Restricted
               Payments made by Sun International and its Subsidiaries, including after
               giving effect to such proposed Restricted Payment, from and after the Issue
               Date, would exceed the sum of (a) 50% of the aggregate Consolidated Net Income
               of Sun International for the period (taken as one accounting period)
               commencing January 1, 1996 to and including the last day of the fiscal quarter
               ended immediately prior to the date of each such calculation (or, in the event
               Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, then minus 100% of such
               deficit) (not giving pro forma effect to the Merger for periods prior to its
               consummation), plus (b) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by Sun
               International from the sale of its Qualified Capital Stock (other than (i) to
               a Subsidiary of Sun International and (ii) to the extent applied in connection
               with a Qualified Exchange) after the Issue Date, plus (c) $50 million;
               provided, however, that for purposes of clause (iii)(a) hereof, in the case of
               an Investment made on or after December 31, 2000 that would constitute a
               Restricted Payment under clause (d) of the definition of "Restricted
               Payments," the Consolidated Net Income of Sun International shall be adjusted
               to exclude the $229.2 million write-down of the net assets related to the
               disposition of the Resorts International Hotel & Casino and certain related
               assets as described in Item 5 of Sun International's annual report on Form
               20-F, as filed with the Commission on July 2, 2001, provided, further, however
               that no such adjustment will be made for purposes of Restricted Payments that
               constitute a payment of any dividend or other distribution in respect of any
               Equity Interests or the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or
               retirement for value of Equity Interests of the Issuers.

                      The immediately preceding paragraph, however, will not prohibit (x) a
               Qualified Exchange, (y) the payment of any dividend on Capital Stock within 60
               days after the date of its declaration if such dividend could have been made
               on the date of such declaration in compliance with the foregoing provisions
               and (z) the redemption or repurchase of any Capital Stock or Indebtedness of
               the Issuers or their Subsidiaries (other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness
               held by SIIL, its shareholders or Permitted Holders), if the holder or
               beneficial owner of such Capital Stock or Indebtedness is required to be found
               suitable by any Gaming Authority to own or vote any security and is found
               unsuitable by any such Gaming Authority to so own or vote such security.  The
               full amount of any Restricted Payment made pursuant to the foregoing clauses
               (y) and (z) (but not pursuant to clause (x)) of the immediately preceding
               sentence, however, will be deducted in the calculation of the aggregate amount
               of Restricted Payments available to be made referred to in clause (iii) of the
               immediately preceding paragraph."

               SECTION 1.02.  Amendment to Section 4.10 (Limitation on Incurrence of
Additional Indebtedness and Disqualified Capital Stock).  Section 4.10 of the Indenture is
amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

               "Section 4.10 Limitation on Incurrence of Additional Indebtedness and
                             --------------------------------------------------------
               Disqualified Capital Stock.
               ---------------------------

                      Except as set forth below in this covenant, the Issuers and the
               Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their Subsidiaries to,
               individually or collectively, directly or indirectly, issue, assume, guaranty,
               incur, become directly or indirectly liable with respect to (including as a
               result of an Acquisition), or otherwise become responsible for, contingently
               or otherwise (individually and collectively, to "incur" or, as appropriate, an
               "incurrence"), any Indebtedness or any Disqualified Capital Stock (including
               Acquired Indebtedness), except Permitted Indebtedness.  Notwithstanding the
               foregoing, if (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at
               the time of, or would occur after giving effect on a pro forma basis to, such
               incurrence of Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock and (ii) on the date
               of such incurrence (the "Incurrence Date"), the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of
               Sun International for the Reference Period immediately preceding the
               Incurrence Date, after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such incurrence
               of such Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock and, to the extent set
               forth in the definition of Consolidated Coverage Ratio, the use of proceeds
               thereof, would be at least 2.5 to l (the "Debt Incurrence Ratio"), then the
               Issuers and the Guarantors, if any, may incur such Indebtedness or
               Disqualified Capital Stock.

                      Acquired Indebtedness shall be deemed to have been incurred at the time
               the person who incurred such Indebtedness becomes a Subsidiary of either of
               the Issuers (including upon designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary or
               other person as a Subsidiary) or is merged with or into or consolidated with
               either of the Issuers or a Subsidiary of either of the Issuers, as applicable."

               SECTION 1.03.  Trustee's Acceptance.  The Trustee hereby accepts this
Supplemental Indenture and agrees to perform the same under the terms and conditions set

venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that
any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum.  Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Trustee or any
securityholder to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal
proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Issuers or any Guarantor in any other
