                             a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
                             the Company ("SINA" and, together with the Company, the

               WHEREAS the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee heretofore executed
and delivered an Indenture dated as of December 10, 1997 (the "Indenture"), in
respect of the Issuers' 8.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007;

               WHEREAS Section 9.2 of the Indenture provides that the Issuers and the

Securities outstanding have consented to the amendments effected by this Supplemental
Indenture; and

               WHEREAS this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by all

               NOW, THEREFORE, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee agree as

                                       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, if any, 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 (to the extent applicable) 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 acquisition of Griffin Gaming &
               Entertainment, Inc. 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 Sun International
               Investments Limited, 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, if
any, 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 forth in the Indenture.


                                      ARTICLE II

TIA that is required under the TIA to be part of and govern any provision of this
Supplemental Indenture, the provision of the TIA shall control.  If any provision of
this Supplemental Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the TIA that may be
so modified or excluded, the provision of the TIA shall be deemed to apply to the
Indenture as so modified or to be excluded by this Supplemental Indenture, as the
case may be.

               SECTION 2.03.  Severability.  In case any provision in this

affected or impaired thereby.

Person, other than the parties hereto and thereto and their successors hereunder and
thereunder and the Holders of the Securities, any benefit of any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or the
Securities.

               SECTION 2.07.  Successors.  All agreements of the Issuers and the

               SECTION 2.08.  Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals.  The Trustee shall

sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the correctness of
the recitals of fact contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the
Issuers.

               SECTION 2.09.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee.  In

benefit of every provision of the Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the
liability or affording protection to the Trustee, whether or not elsewhere herein so
provided.

               SECTION 2.10.  Governing Law.  This Supplemental Indenture shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, as applied to contracts made and performed within the State of New York,
without regard to principles of conflicts of law.  The Issuers and each Guarantor
hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of any New York State court sitting in

waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, trial
by jury and any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the
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 jurisdiction.

               SECTION 2.11. Duplicate Originals.  All parties may sign any number of
