SECTION 1.05. Effectiveness of Amendment and Restatement of Original Credit Agreement. (a) This amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement contemplated hereby shall become effective on the Effective Date, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the parties to the Original Credit Agreement and their respective successors and assigns. Until this Agreement becomes effective, the Original Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected hereby. After the Effective Date, all Obligations of Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Original Credit Agreement shall become Obligations of Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, continuously secured by the Liens granted under the Security Documents, and the provisions of the Original Credit Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise expressly stated hereunder, the term of this Agreement is for all purposes deemed to have commenced on the Effective Date. Unless omitted or modified in connection with this Agreement, all schedules and exhibits, as amended prior to the Effective Date, shall not be amended or omitted and shall remain as annexed to the Original Credit Agreement.

(b) Each Term B Facility Lender (as defined under the Original Credit Agreement) (an "Existing Term B Lender") that executes and delivers a signature page to this amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement will be deemed to have agreed to have committed pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement to convert its Term B Facility Loans (as defined under the Original Credit Agreement), after giving effect to the optional prepayment of Term B Facility Loans contemplated by Section 7.01(f) (such Term B Facility Loans, after giving effect to all such optional prepayments thereof, the "Existing Term B Loans") into Term D Facility Loans on the Effective Date in a like principal amount. By electing to so convert, each Existing Term B Lender agrees to all other provisions of this amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement and that the conversion of its Term B Facility Loan into a Term D Facility Loan is merely a mechanic to effectuate a reduction in the Applicable Margin applicable to its Loans.

(c) All accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Term B Loans to be converted as contemplated by Section 1.05(b) as of the Effective Date shall accrue on the Term D Facility Loans following the Effective Date and be paid when interest is first due on the Term D Facility Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the conversion of Existing Term B Loans into Term D Facility Loans shall not be deemed to be a prepayment or conversion of Loans for purposes of Article V.

ARTICLE II

CREDITS

SECTION 2.01. Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. Each Revolving Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make revolving loans (the "Revolving Loans") to Borrower in Dollars during

the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not exceeding the amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender as in effect from time to time minus the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Swingline Loans held by such Lender; provided, however, that in no event shall the sum of the aggregate principal amount of (without duplication) all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, plus the aggregate amount of all L/C Liabilities at any time exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments as in effect at such time. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during such period Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the amount of the Revolving Commitments by means of ABR Loans and LIBOR Loans.

(b) Term D Facility Loans; Conversion of Existing Term B Loans. Each Term D Facility Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make a term loan ("Term D Facility Loans") to Borrower in Dollars on the Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Term D Facility Commitment of such Lender. In connection with making of Term D Facility Loans pursuant to this Section 2.01(b), any Existing Term B Lender who has agreed to become a Term D Facility Lender shall make all of such Lender's Term D Facility Loans to be made as contemplated by Section 1.05(b) on the Effective Date by converting all of the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term B Loans held by such Lender into Term D Facility Loans in a principal amount equal to the amount of Existing Term B Loans so converted (each such Existing Term B Loans to the extent it is to be converted, a "Converted Term Loan"). On the Effective Date, the Converted Term Loans shall be converted for all purposes of this Agreement into Term D Facility Loans, and Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the aggregate amounts of Converted Term Loans converted into Term D Facility Loans.

(d) [Reserved]

(e) Incremental Loans. Borrower and the Lenders (and any other Eligible Person in the event the Lenders do not wish to provide the full amount of the Incremental Loans) may, up to two times during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the Incremental Loan Maturity Date, agree that all or any of such Lenders (and such other Eligible Persons) who wish to become an Incremental Loan Lender shall become Incremental Loan Lenders or increase the principal amount of their Incremental Loans by executing and delivering to Administrative Agent an Incremental Loan Activation Notice specifying (i) the respective Incremental Loan Amount of such Incremental Lenders; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Loan Amounts in any Incremental Loan Activation Notice shall not exceed $125.0 million, (ii) the applicable Incremental Loan Effective Date, (iii) the applicable Incremental Loan Maturity Date, (iv) the amortization schedule for the applicable Incremental Loans, (v) whether such Incremental Loan Lenders may elect to decline prepayments as specified in Section 2.10(b)(i) and (vi) the Applicable Margin for the Incremental Loans to be made pursuant to such Incremental Loan Activation Notice, and which shall be otherwise duly completed. Each Incremental Loan Lender that is a signatory to an Incremental Loan Activation Notice severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make an Incremental Loan to Borrower on the Incremental Loan Effective Date specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice in a principal amount not to exceed the amount of the Incremental Loan Amount of such Incremental Loan Lender specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may convert Incremental Loans of one Type into Incremental Loans of another Type (as provided in Section 2.09) or continue Incremental Loans of one Type as Incremental Loans of the same Type (as provided in Section 2.09). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement expressed or implied to the contrary, nothing in this Section 2.01(e) shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Loan Activation Notice or require consent from Lenders to the making of Incremental Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

the aggregate amount of Incremental Loans shall not exceed $225.0 million. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower and Lead Arrangers may execute such amendments and/or amendments and restatements of any Credit Documents as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the foregoing.

(f) Limit on LIBOR Loans. No more than fifteen separate Interest Periods in respect of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any one time.

(g) Swingline Loans.

(i) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $20.0 million or (y) the sum of the total Revolving Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(ii) Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of Borrower with the Swingline Lender by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Borrower shall not request a Swingline Loan if at the time of and immediately after giving effect to such request a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $250,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 above such amount.

(iii) Prepayment. Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or telecopy notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written, or telecopy notice) to the Swingline Lender and to Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time on the date of repayment at the Swingline Lender's address for notices specified in the Swingline Lender's Administrative Questionnaire. All principal payments of Swingline Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid to the date of payment.

(iv) Participations. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender's applicable percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender's R/C Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or

reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (provided that such payment shall not cause such Lender's Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 4.01 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 4.01 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from Borrower (or other party on behalf of Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

SECTION 2.02. Borrowings. Borrower shall give Administrative Agent notice of each borrowing hereunder as provided in Section 4.05 in the form of a Notice of Borrowing. Not later than 12:00 noon New York City time on the date specified for each borrowing hereunder, each Lender shall make available the amount of the Loan or Loans to be made by it on such date to Administrative Agent, at an account specified by Administrative Agent maintained at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds, for the account of Borrower, except to the extent such Lender elects to convert Existing Term B Loans into Term D Facility Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b). Each borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made by each Revolving Lender pro rata based on its R/C Percentage. The amounts so received by Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be made available to Borrower by depositing the same, in immediately available funds, in an account of Borrower maintained with Administrative Agent at the Principal Office designated by Borrower.

SECTION 2.03. Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Revolving Commitment may be utilized, upon the request of Borrower, in addition to the Revolving Loans provided for by Section 2.01(a), for standby and commercial documentary letters of credit (herein collectively called "Letters of Credit") issued by L/C Lender for the account of any Credit Party (provided that Borrower shall be a co-applicant (and jointly and severally liable) with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Subsidiary); provided, however, that in no event shall (i) the aggregate amount of all L/C Liabilities, plus the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, exceed at any time the Revolving Commitments as in effect at such time, (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding made by any Revolving Lender, plus such Lender's R/C Percentage of the aggregate amount of all L/C Liabilities exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment as in effect at such time, (iii) the outstanding aggregate amount of all L/C Liabilities exceed $20.0 million, (iv) the face amount of any Letter of Credit be less than $100,000, (v) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the earlier of (x) the fifth Business Day preceding the R/C Maturity Date and (y) the date twelve months following the date of such issuance for standby Letters of Credit or 180 days after the date of such issuance for commercial documentary Letters of Credit, unless the Majority Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing (but never beyond the fifth Business Day prior to the R/C Maturity Date); provided further, however, that any standby Letter of Credit may be automatically extendible for periods of up to one year (but never beyond the fifth Business Day preceding the R/C

Maturity Date), (vi) L/C Lender issue any Letter of Credit after it has received notice from Borrower or the Majority Revolving Lenders stating that a Default exists until such time as L/C Lender shall have received written notice of (x) rescission of such notice from the Majority Revolving Lenders, (y) waiver or cure of such Default in accordance with this Agreement or (z) Administrative Agent's good faith determination that such Default has ceased to exist, or (vii) any letter of credit be issued in a currency other than Dollars nor at a tenor other than sight. The following additional provisions shall apply to Letters of Credit:

(a) Borrower shall give Administrative Agent and L/C Lender at least three Business Days' irrevocable prior notice (effective upon receipt by L/C Lender) pursuant to a Letter of Credit application reasonably satisfactory to L/C Lender specifying the date (which shall be no later than thirty days preceding the R/C Maturity Date) each Letter of Credit is to be issued and describing in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit (including the beneficiary thereof) (including whether such Letter of Credit is to be a commercial Letter of Credit or a standby Letter of Credit). Upon receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall advise L/C Lender of the contents thereof. Each Lender hereby authorizes L/C Lender to issue, and perform its obligations under, Letters of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be issued in accordance with the customary procedures of L/C Lender, which may include an application for Letters of Credit but which application shall not contain any operating or financial covenants or any provisions inconsistent with this Agreement. L/C Lender may refuse to issue any Letter of Credit the contents of which are not reasonably satisfactory to it. If there is any conflict between the procedures or any Letter of Credit application required by L/C Lender and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.

(b) On each day during the period commencing with the issuance by L/C Lender of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been terminated, the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes hereof in an amount equal to such Lender's R/C Percentage of the then undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit plus the amount of any unreimbursed drawings thereunder. Each Revolving Lender (other than L/C Lender) severally agrees that, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, it shall automatically acquire a participation in L/C Lender's obligation to fund drawings and rights under such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender's R/C Percentage of such obligations and rights, and each Revolving Lender (other than L/C Lender) thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to L/C Lender to pay and discharge when due, its R/C Percentage of L/C Lender's obligation to fund drawings under such Letter of Credit. L/C Lender shall be deemed to hold a L/C Liability in an amount equal to its retained interest in the related Letter of Credit after giving effect to such acquisition by the Revolving Lenders other than L/C Lender of their participation interests.

(c) In the event that L/C Lender has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit, L/C Lender shall promptly notify Borrower (through Administrative Agent) of the amount paid by L/C Lender and the date on which payment is to be made to such beneficiary. Borrower hereby unconditionally agrees to pay and reimburse L/C Lender for the amount of payment under such Letter of Credit, together with interest thereon at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Revolving Loans from the date payment was made to such beneficiary to the date on which payment is due, such payment to be made not later than the first Business Day after the date on which Borrower receives such notice from L/C Lender (or the second Business Day thereafter if such notice is received on a date that is not a Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. New York City time on a Business Day). Any such payment due from Borrower and not paid on the required date shall thereafter bear interest at rates specified in Section 3.02(b) until paid.

(d) Promptly upon its receipt of a notice referred to in clause (c) of this Section 2.03, Borrower shall advise L/C Lender and Administrative Agent whether or not Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse L/C Lender for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does so intend, submit a notice of such borrowing to Administrative Agent as provided in Section 4.05. In the event that Borrower fails to either submit a notice of borrowing to Administrative Agent or to reimburse L/C Lender for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the next Business Day after the date of such notice, Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Lender prompt notice of the amount of the demand for payment, specifying such Lender's R/C Percentage of the amount of the related demand for payment and requesting payment of such amount.

(e) Each Revolving Lender (other than L/C Lender) shall pay to Administrative Agent for account of L/C Lender at the Principal Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender's R/C Percentage of any payment under a Letter of Credit upon not less than one Business Day's actual notice by Administrative Agent as described in clause (d) above to such Revolving Lender requesting such payment and specifying such amount. Subject to the proviso to the last paragraph of this Section 2.03, each such Revolving Lender's obligation to make such payments to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Lender under this clause (e), and L/C Lender's right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including (i) the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make its payment under this clause (e), (ii) the financial condition of Borrower or the existence of any Default or (iii) the termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to L/C Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(f) Upon the making of each payment by a Revolving Lender to L/C Lender pursuant to clause (e) above in respect of any Letter of Credit, such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of Administrative Agent, L/C Lender or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to L/C Lender by Borrower hereunder and under the L/C Documents relating to such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender's R/C Percentage in any interest or other amounts (other than cost reimbursements) payable by Borrower hereunder and under such L/C Documents in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation. If L/C Lender receives directly from or for the account of Borrower, any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation or any such interest or other amounts (including by way of setoff or application of proceeds of any collateral security) L/C Lender shall promptly pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender which has satisfied its obligations under clause (e) above, such Revolving Lender's R/C Percentage of such payment, each such payment by L/C Lender to be made in Dollars. In the event any payment received by L/C Lender and so paid to the Revolving Lenders hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by L/C Lender, each Revolving Lender shall, upon the request of L/C Lender (through Administrative Agent), repay to L/C Lender (through Administrative Agent) the amount of such payment paid to such Lender, with interest at the rate specified in clause (i) of this Section 2.03.

(g) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Lender in respect of each Letter of Credit, a letter of credit commission in an amount (not less than $500) equal to (x) the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Loans in effect from time to time, multiplied by (y) the daily average undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit which expires in accordance with its terms, to and including such expiration date and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit which is drawn in full or is otherwise terminated other than on the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit, to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full or is terminated, such fee to be non-refundable and to

be paid in arrears quarterly, on each Quarterly Date, and on the earlier of the R/C Maturity Date, the date of the termination of the Revolving Commitment, the date of such termination, expiration or the Business Day subsequent to notice of a drawing in full. L/C Lender authorizes Administrative Agent to pay to each Revolving Lender, but only to the extent actually received from Borrower, an amount equal to such Lender's R/C Percentage of all letter of credit commissions referred to in the first sentence of this clause (g). In addition, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for account of L/C Lender only in respect of each Letter of Credit a letter of credit issuance fee in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum multiplied by the original face amount from the issue date through the expiry date of such Letter of Credit (but in no event less than $500 per Letter of Credit) payable quarterly in arrears, such amount to be non-refundable and payable on each Quarterly Date after issuance of such Letter of Credit, plus all charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by L/C Lender from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and drawings and other transactions relating thereto.

(h) Upon the issuance of a standby Letter of Credit, L/C Lender shall deliver (through Administrative Agent) to each Revolving Lender a notice describing such standby Letter of Credit, and promptly following the end of each 2nd and 4th Quarter, L/C Lender shall deliver (through Administrative Agent) to each Revolving Lender and Borrower a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at the end of such 2nd and 4th Quarter. Upon the request of any Revolving Lender from time to time, L/C Lender shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding.

(i) To the extent that any Revolving Lender fails to pay an amount required to be paid pursuant to clause (e) or (f) of this Section 2.03 on the due date therefor, such Lender shall pay interest to L/C Lender (through Administrative Agent) on such amount from and including such due date to but excluding the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate (as in effect from time to time).

(j) The issuance by L/C Lender of any modification or supplement to any Letter of Credit hereunder that would extend the expiry date or increase the face amount thereof shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Section 2.03 to the issuance of new Letters of Credit, and no such modification or supplement shall be issued hereunder unless either (x) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such modified or supplemented form or (y) the Majority Revolving Lenders (or all of the Revolving Lenders to the extent required by Section 13.04) shall have consented thereto.

(k) Notwithstanding the foregoing, L/C Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if at the time of such issuance, any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain L/C Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit or any Requirement of Law applicable to L/C Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which L/C Lender is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Closing Date. At any time that L/C Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue Letters of Credit pursuant to this paragraph (k), L/C Lender may be replaced by Borrower with another Lender reasonably acceptable to Lead Arrangers upon notice to L/C Lender and Administrative Agent and acceptance of such appointment by such successor L/C Lender. Upon any such replacement, Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of L/C Lender and the replacement L/C Lender shall agree to be bound by the applicable provisions of

this Agreement. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced L/C Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(g). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor L/C Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of L/C Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "L/C Lender" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous L/C Lender, or to such successor and all previous L/C Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an L/C Lender hereunder, the replaced L/C Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. The obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and any L/C Document to reimburse L/C Lender for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and to repay any drawing under a Letter of Credit converted into Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other L/C Document under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any L/C Document; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), L/C Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C Documents or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit; or any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; or (iv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor; provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any Revolving Lender shall be obligated to reimburse L/C Lender for any wrongful payment finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been made by L/C Lender as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of L/C Lender. To the extent that any provision of any L/C Document is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.03, the provisions of this Section 2.03 shall control.

Reference is made to the L/C Lender's letter of credit number SM418794P dated October 23, 2001, issued for the account of Borrower and Charles Town Gaming LLC and for the benefit of County Commission of Jefferson County and having a current face amount of $645,547 ("Existing Letter of Credit"). Borrower, Administrative Agent and Revolving Lenders hereby agree that as of Closing Date such Existing Letter of Credit shall be Letter of Credit as if originally issued under this Agreement, and that the fees and other provisions set forth in this Section 2.03 shall be applicable to such Existing Letter of Credit as of the Closing Date. Any letter of credit annual fees or commissions previously paid to L/C Lender by Borrower on account of the Existing Letter of Credit for the period after the Closing Date shall be credited to the issuance fee payable only to L/C Lender described in clause (g) above.

(ii) The aggregate amount of Term D Facility Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero immediately following the Effective Date.

(d) Any Commitment once terminated or reduced may not be reinstated.

SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee on the daily average amount of such Lender's Unutilized R/C Commitments, for the period from and including the Closing Date to but not including the earlier of the date such Revolving Commitment is terminated or expires and the R/C Maturity Date (for purposes of computing commitment fees with respect to Revolving Commitments, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and L/C Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose)) at a rate equal to the Applicable Fee Percentage. Any accrued commitment fee under this Section 2.05(a) shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the earlier of the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated or expire and the R/C Maturity Date.

(b) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for its own account the annual administrative fee pursuant to the Administrative Agent's Fee Letter.

SECTION 2.06. Lending Offices. The Loans of each Type made by each Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender's Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type.

SECTION 2.07. Several Obligations of Lenders. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on such date, but neither any Lender nor Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender, and no Lender shall have any obligation to Administrative Agent or any other Lender for the failure by such Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such Lender. No Revolving Lender will be responsible for failure of any other Lender to fund its participation in Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.08. Notes; Register. (a) At the request of any Lender, its Loans of a particular Class shall be evidenced by a promissory note, dated the Closing Date or the Effective Date, as applicable, payable to such Lender (or its nominee) and otherwise duly completed, substantially in the form of Exhibits A-1, A-2 and A-4 for such Lender's Revolving Loans, Term D Facility Loans, and Incremental Loans, respectively.

(b) The date, amount, Type, interest rate and duration of the Interest Period (if applicable) of each Loan of each Class made by each Lender to Borrower and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender (or its nominee) on its books and, prior

to any transfer of any Note evidencing the Loans of such Class held by it, endorsed by such Lender (or its nominee) on the schedule attached to such Note or any continuation thereof; provided, however, that the failure of such Lender (or its nominee) to make any such recordation or endorsement or any error in such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of Borrower to make a payment when due of any amount owing hereunder or under such Note.

(c) Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as its agent, solely for purposes of this Section 2.08, to maintain a register (the "Register") on which it will record the name and address of each Lender, the Commitment from time to time of each of the Lenders, the principal amount of the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation or any error in such recordation shall not affect Borrower's obligations in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence of the information noted therein (absent manifest error), and the parties hereto shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of the Credit Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register.

SECTION 2.09. Optional Prepayments and Conversions or Continuations of Loans. (a) Subject to Section 4.04, Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans, or to Convert Loans of one Type into Loans of another Type or to Continue Loans of one Type as Loans of the same Type, at any time or from time to time. Borrower shall give Administrative Agent notice of each such prepayment, Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 4.05 (and, upon the date specified in any such notice of prepayment, the amount to be prepaid shall become due and payable hereunder). Each notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit D. If LIBOR Loans are prepaid or Converted other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, Borrower shall at such time pay all expenses and costs required by Section 5.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting the rights and remedies of the Lenders under Article XI, in the event that any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent may (and at the request of the Majority Lenders shall) suspend the right of Borrower to Convert any Loan into a LIBOR Loan, or to Continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan, in which event all Loans shall be Converted (on the last day(s) of the respective Interest Periods therefor) or Continued, as the case may be, as ABR Loans. Swingline Loans may not be converted or continued.

(b) Application. (i) Any partial optional prepayment of Term D Facility Loans shall be allocated pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount held by each Term D Facility Lender.

(ii) [Reserved]

(iii) In addition to the foregoing, and provided that the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00, Borrower shall have the right to elect to offer to prepay the Loans pro rata to the Term D Facility Loans then outstanding and apply any amounts not accepted for such prepayment to repurchase Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness and/or Borrower Outstanding Bonds in accordance with Section 10.10(v). If Borrower makes such an election, it shall provide notice thereof to Administrative Agent, who shall promptly, and in any event within one Business Day of receipt, provide such notice to the holders of the Term D Facility Loans. Any such notice shall specify the aggregate amount offered to prepay the Term D Facility Loans. Each holder of a Term D Facility Loan may elect, in its sole discretion, to accept such prepayment offer with respect to an amount equal to or less than an amount equal to the aggregate amount so offered to prepay Term D Facility Loans times a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of Term D Facility Loans owed to such holder and the denominator of which is the principal amount of Term D Facility Loans outstanding.

Any acceptance of such offer must be evidenced by written notice delivered to Administrative Agent within five Business Days of receipt of the offer for prepayment, specifying an amount of such prepayment offer accepted by such holder, if any. Failure to give such notice will constitute an election not to accept such offer. Any portion of such prepayment offer so accepted will be used to prepay the Term D Facility Loans held by the applicable holders within ten Business Days of the date of receipt of the offer to prepay. Any portion of such prepayment offer not so accepted may be used by Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries as provided in Section 10.10(v) to the extent permitted thereby.

SECTION 2.10. Mandatory Prepayment and Commitment Reductions. (a) Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or reduce Commitments) as follows (each such prepayment (and/or Commitment reduction) to be effected in each case in the manner, order and to the extent specified in subsection (b) below of this Section 2.10):

(i) Casualty Events. Within three Business Days after Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary receives any Net Available Proceeds from any Casualty Event (or notice of collection by Administrative Agent of the same), in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Available Proceeds; provided, however, that

(w) if no Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise therefrom, the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that Borrower has delivered an Officer's Certificate to Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that an amount equal to such proceeds shall be used to fund the acquisition of Property used or usable in the business of any Credit Party or repair, replace or restore the Property in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Security Document in respect of which such Casualty Event has occurred, in each case within 365 days following the date of the receipt of such Net Available Proceeds,

(x) to the extent such Casualty Event affects any of the Collateral or Property acquired to effect any repair, replacement or restoration of such Collateral, such proceeds shall be made subject to the Lien of the Security Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.09,

(y) an amount equal to all such Net Available Proceeds (A) in excess of $1.0 million but less than or equal to $5.0 million in the aggregate for all such Casualty Events during any fiscal year, shall be deposited and maintained in a Controlled Account and may thereafter only be utilized to effect any repair, replacement or restoration permitted pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(i) or to repay Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) and (B) in excess of $5.0 million in the aggregate for all such Casualty Events during any fiscal year, shall be held in the Collateral Account or used to repay Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments), and shall be released therefrom only in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement or be used to repay Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments), and

(z) if all or any portion of such Net Available Proceeds not required to be applied to the prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(i) is not so used within 365 days after the date of the receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as specified in Section 2.10(b); provided that if any portion has not been so used within 365 days after such date and any Credit Party is diligently pursuing the repair, replacement or restoration of Property or the acquisition of Property, then such application of such remaining portion shall not be required for so long as such repair, replacement or restoration is being diligently pursued.

(ii) Equity Issuance. Within three Business Days after receipt of Net Available Proceeds from any Equity Issuance on or after the Closing Date, in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of the Net Available Proceeds of such Equity Issuance if and to the extent the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 4.0 to 1.0 (calculated as of the most recent Test Date, after giving pro forma effect to such Equity Issuance and the use of proceeds therefrom (including prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.10)); provided, however, that any such Net Available Proceeds from any Equity Issuance which are used to consummate Permitted Acquisitions pursuant to Section 10.05(j) shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(a)(ii).

(iii) Debt Issuance. Within three Business Days after any Debt Issuance on or after the Closing Date, in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds of such Debt Issuance (it being understood that applications pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall not be duplicative of Section 2.10(a)(iv) below).

(iv) Asset Sales. Within three Business Day after receipt by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Available Proceeds from any Asset Sale, in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds from such Asset Sale (it being understood that applications pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(iv) shall not be duplicative of Section 2.10(a)(iii) above); provided, however, that

(w) the Net Available Proceeds from any Asset Sale permitted by Section 10.05 shall not be required to be applied as provided above on such date if (1) no Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise therefrom, and (2) Borrower delivers an Officer's Certificate to Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that an amount equal to such Net Available Proceeds shall be reinvested, directly or indirectly, in capital assets (which may be pursuant to an acquisition of Equity Interests of a person that directly or indirectly owns such capital assets) otherwise permitted under this Agreement of (A) if such Asset Sale was effected by any Credit Party, any Credit Party, and (B) if such Asset Sale was effected by any other Company, any Company, in each case within 365 days following the date of such Asset Sale (which certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended),

(x) to the extent such Net Available Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of Collateral, the Net Available Proceeds shall be used within such 365 day period to acquire Property made subject to the Lien of the Security Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.09,

(y) pending application of all such Net Available Proceeds (including Net Available Proceeds from Asset Sales of Collateral) in accordance with the Officer's Certificate referred to in clause (w) above or in accordance with clause (z) below, all such Net Available Proceeds (A) in excess of $1.0 million but less than or equal to $5.0 million in the aggregate for all such Asset Sales during any fiscal year shall be deposited and maintained in a Controlled Account and may thereafter only be utilized to reinvest in capital assets as contemplated by the Officer's Certificate referred to in clause (w) above (and, in the case of any Net Available Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Collateral, in compliance with clause (x) above) or to repay Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) and (B) in excess of $5.0 million in the aggregate for all such Asset Sales during any fiscal year, shall be held in the Collateral Account and may thereafter only be utilized to reinvest in capital assets as contemplated by the Officer's Certificate referred to in clause (w) above (and, in the case of any Net Available Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Collateral, in compliance with clause (x) above) or to repay Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments)

provided, however, that available borrowings under the Revolving Facility shall at no time be less than the amount of Net Available Proceeds utilized to Repay Revolving Loans under this clause (y), and

(z) if all or any portion of such Net Available Proceeds is not reinvested in capital assets in accordance with the Officer's Certificate referred to in clause (w) above (and, in the case of any Net Available Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Collateral, in compliance with clause (y) above) within such 365-day period, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as specified in Section 2.10(b) (it being understood that the foregoing shall in no way affect the obligation of any Company to obtain the consent of the Majority Lenders if required pursuant to this Agreement to effect any Asset Sale).

(v) Excess Cash Flow. On a date not later than 100 days after each December 31 (each such December 31, an "Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date"), beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, (i) if the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date is greater than or equal to 4.5 to 1.0, an amount equal to 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period ending on such Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date, (ii) if the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date is less than 4.5 to 1.0 but equal to or greater than 3.5 to 1.0, an amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period ending on such Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date or (iii) if the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date is less than 3.5 to 1.0, an amount equal to 0% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period ending on such Excess Cash Flow Measurement Date.

(vi) Other Required Prepayments. If the terms of any agreement, instrument or indenture pursuant to which any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) pari passu with or junior in right of payment to the Loans is outstanding (or pursuant to which such Indebtedness is guaranteed) require prepayment of such Indebtedness out of the Net Available Proceeds of any Asset Sale unless such Net Available Proceeds are used to prepay other Indebtedness, then, to the extent not otherwise required by this Section 2.10(a), if Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not have reinvested the Net Available Proceeds thereof as permitted by Section 2.10(a)(iv) within the time frame permitted thereby (but prior to the date required to be applied to such Indebtedness), the Loans shall be repaid in an amount not less than the minimum amount that would be required to be prepaid not later than the latest time as and upon such terms so that such other Indebtedness will not be required to be prepaid pursuant to the terms of the agreement, indenture or instrument or guarantee governing such other Indebtedness.

(b) Application. The amount of any required prepayments described in Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to prepay Loans and/or reduce Commitments as follows:

(i) First, the amount of the required prepayment shall be applied to the reduction of Amortization Payments on the Term Loans required by Section 3.01(b) pro rata among the Term Facilities based upon the remaining unpaid aggregate principal amounts thereof and, in each case, pro rata to the remaining Amortization Payments;

(ii) Second, after such time as no Term Loans remain outstanding, with an amount equal to the remaining amount of any such required prepayment that would have been applied to the Term Loans, Borrower shall, first, repay all outstanding Swingline Loans, second, prepay outstanding Revolving Loans and, third, provide cover for L/C Liabilities as specified in Section 2.10(d), in an aggregate amount equal to such remaining portion (provided that such prepayments shall not reduce the Revolving Commitments); and

(iii) Third, after application of prepayments in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) above, Borrower shall be permitted to retain any such remaining excess.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of any prepayment of Loans required under this Section 2.10 shall be in excess of the amount of the ABR Loans at the time outstanding, only the portion of the amount of such prepayment as is equal to the amount of such outstanding ABR Loans shall be immediately prepaid and, at the election of Borrower, the balance of such required prepayment shall be either (i) deposited in the Collateral Account and applied to the prepayment of LIBOR Loans on the last day of the then next-expiring Interest Period for LIBOR Loans (with all interest accruing thereon for the account of Borrower) or (ii) prepaid immediately, together with any amounts owing to the Lenders under Section 5.05. Notwithstanding any such deposit in the Collateral Account, interest shall continue to accrue on such Loans until prepayment.

(c) Revolving Credit Extension Reductions. Until the R/C Maturity Date, Borrower shall from time to time immediately prepay the Revolving Loans (and/or provide cover for L/C Liabilities as specified in Section 2.10(d)) in such amounts as shall be necessary so that at all times the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loans, plus the aggregate outstanding L/C Liabilities shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments as in effect at such time, such amount to be applied, first, to Revolving Loans outstanding and second, as cover for L/C Liabilities outstanding as specified in Section 2.10(d).

(d) Cover for L/C Liabilities. In the event that Borrower shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.10 to provide cover for L/C Liabilities, Borrower shall effect the same by paying to Administrative Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to the required amount, which funds shall be retained by Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account (as provided in the Security Agreement as collateral security in the first instance for the L/C Liabilities) until such time as all Letters of Credit shall have been terminated and all of the L/C Liabilities paid in full.

SECTION 2.11. Replacement of Lenders. (a) Borrower shall have the right, if no Default then exists, to replace any Lender (the "Replaced Lender") with one or more other Eligible Persons reasonably acceptable to Lead Arrangers (collectively, the "Replacement Lender") if (x) such Lender is charging Borrower increased costs pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.06 or such Lender becomes incapable of making LIBOR Loans as provided in Section 5.03 when other Lenders are generally able to do so and/or (y) as provided in Section 13.04(ii), such Lender refuses to consent to certain proposed amendments, waivers or modifications with respect to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more assignment agreements (and with all fees payable pursuant to Section 13.06 to be paid by the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and in each case L/C Interests by, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to (x) the Replaced Lender, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender, (B) all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Replaced Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time, and (C) all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, fees owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Section 2.05, and (y) L/C Lender an amount equal to such Replaced Lender's R/C Percentage of any Reimbursement Obligations (which at such time remains a Reimbursement Obligation) to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender, and (ii) all obligations of Borrower owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid, but including any amounts which would be paid to a Lender pursuant to Section 5.05 if Borrower were prepaying a LIBOR Loan) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective assignment agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of Notes executed by Borrower, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the

Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder and be released of all its obligations as a Lender, except with respect to indemnification provisions applicable to the Replaced Lender under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender.

(b) If Borrower receives a notice from any applicable Gaming Authority that a Lender is not qualified to make Loans to Borrower or to hold the securities of a casino licensee under applicable Gaming Laws (and such Lender is notified by Borrower and Lead Arrangers in writing of such disqualification), Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender with a Replacement Lender or prepay the Loans held by such Lender, even if a Default exists. Any such prepayment shall be deemed an optional prepayment, as set forth in Section 2.09 and shall not be required to be made on a pro rata basis with respect to Loans of the same Tranche as the Loans held by such Lender. Notice to such Lender shall be given at least ten (10) days before the required date of transfer or prepayment (unless a shorter period is required under applicable law), as the case may be, and shall be accompanied by evidence demonstrating that such transfer or redemption is required pursuant to Gaming Laws. Upon receipt of a notice in accordance with the foregoing, the Replaced Lender shall cooperate with Borrower in effectuating the required transfer or prepayment within the time period set forth in such notice, not to be less than the minimum notice period set forth in the foregoing sentence (unless a shorter period is required under applicable law). Further, if the transfer or prepayment is triggered by notice from the Gaming Authority that the Lender is disqualified, commencing on the date the Gaming Authority serves the disqualification notice upon Borrower: (i) such Lender shall no longer receive any interest on the Loans; (ii) such Lender shall no longer exercise, directly or through any trustee or nominee, any right conferred by the Loans; and (iii) such Lender shall not receive any remuneration in any form from Borrower for services or otherwise in respect of the Loans.

The Incremental Loans, if any, of each Incremental Lender shall mature in installments as specified in the Incremental Loan Activation Notice pursuant to which such Incremental Loans were made; provided that, in the event that any Incremental Loan is a Term Loan, prior to the date that is six months prior to the Term D Final Maturity Date then in effect, the amounts of such installments for any twelve consecutive months shall not exceed 1% of the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Loans on the date such Loans were first made.

SECTION 3.02. Interest. (a) Borrower hereby promises to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made or maintained by such Lender to Borrower for the period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full at the following rates per annum:

(i) during such periods as such Loan (including each Swingline Loan) is an ABR Loan, the Alternate Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin,

"Net Yield" for purposes of Incremental Loans, if such Incremental Loans are term loans, shall mean the sum of (a) the Applicable Margin applicable to such Incremental Loans at the Incremental Loan Effective Date plus (b) any original issue discount offered to Incremental Loan Lenders amortized equally over the period from the Incremental Loan Effective Date to the Incremental Loan Maturity Date; provided, that such original issue discount shall not be amortized over a period of greater than three years.

first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such amounts are payable and interest on ABR Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such amounts are payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each day that the Alternate Base Rate is calculated by reference to the Federal Funds Rate, interest on ABR Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

SECTION 4.04. Minimum Amounts. Except for mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.10 and Conversions or prepayments made pursuant to Section 5.04, each Borrowing, Conversion and partial prepayment of principal of Loans shall be in an amount at least equal to $1.0 million with respect to ABR Loans and $1.0 million with respect to LIBOR Loans and in multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (borrowings, Conversions or prepayments of or into Loans of different Types or, in the case of LIBOR Loans, having different Interest Periods at the same time hereunder to be deemed separate borrowings, Conversions and prepayments for purposes of the foregoing, one for each Type or Interest Period). Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the aggregate principal amount of LIBOR Loans having the same Interest Period shall be in an amount at least equal to $250,000 and in multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof and, if any LIBOR Loans or portions thereof would otherwise be in a lesser principal amount for any period, such Loans or portions, as the case may be, shall be ABR Loans during such period.

SECTION 4.05. Certain Notices. Notices by Borrower to Administrative Agent (or, in the case of repayment of Swingline Loans, to Swingline Lender) of terminations or reductions of the Commitments, of Borrowings, Conversions, Continuations and optional prepayments of Loans and of Classes of Loans, of Types of Loans and of the duration of Interest Periods shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Swingline Loans, Swingline Lender) by telephone not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time (promptly followed by written notice via telecopier) on at least the number of Business Days prior to the date of the relevant termination, reduction, Borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment or the first day of such Interest Period specified in the table below.

NOTICE PERIODS

Notice		Number of Business Days Prior
Termination or reduction of Commitments		2
Borrowing or optional prepayment of, or Conversions into, ABR Loans		1
Borrowing or optional prepayment of, Conversions into, Continuations as, or duration of Interest Periods for, LIBOR Loans		3
Borrowing or Repayment of Swingline Loans		same day

Each such notice of termination or reduction shall specify the amount and the Class of the Commitments to be terminated or reduced. Each such notice of Borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment shall specify the Class of Loans to be borrowed, Converted, Continued or prepaid and the amount (subject to Section 4.04) and Type of each Loan to be borrowed, Converted, Continued or prepaid and the date of borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). Each such notice of the duration of an Interest Period shall specify the Loans to which such Interest Period is to relate. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice. In the event that Borrower fails to select the Type of Loan, or the duration of any Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan, within the time period and otherwise as provided in this Section 4.05, such Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Loan) will be automatically Converted into an

ABR Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan or (if outstanding as an ABR Loan) will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, an ABR Loan.

SECTION 4.06. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower (the "Payor") prior to the date on which the Payor is to make payment to Administrative Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Lender hereunder or a payment to Administrative Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (such payment being herein called the "Required Payment"), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the "Advance Date") such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such day and, if such recipient(s) shall fail promptly to make such payment, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from the Payor, together with interest as aforesaid; provided, however, that if neither the recipient(s) nor the Payor shall return the Required Payment to Administrative Agent within three Business Days of the date such demand was made, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Payor and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment as follows (without double recovery):

(i) if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by Borrower to the Lenders, Borrower and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the rate set forth in Section 3.02(b) (without duplication of the obligation of Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay interest on the Required Payment at the rate set forth in Section 3.02(b)), it being understood that the return by the recipient(s) of the Required Payment to Administrative Agent shall not limit such obligation of Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay interest at the rate set forth in Section 3.02(b) in respect of the Required Payment; and

(ii) if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to Borrower, the Payor, or Borrower, shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment pursuant to Section 3.02, it being understood that the return by Borrower of the Required Payment to Administrative Agent shall not limit any claim Borrower may have against the Payor in respect of such Required Payment.

SECTION 4.07. Right of Setoff, Sharing of Payments; Etc. (a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Credit Party agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (to the fullest extent permitted by law), to set off and apply any deposit (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), or other indebtedness, held by it for the credit or account of such Credit Party at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender's Loans, Reimbursement Obligations or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such deposit or other indebtedness is then due to such Credit Party), in which case it shall promptly notify such Credit Party and Administrative Agent thereof; provided, however, that such Lender's failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive (other than pursuant to Article V or the Administrative Agent's Fee Letter) any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker's lien, by counterclaim or

cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents (including any guarantee), or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations or fees, the sum of which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such amounts then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such amounts then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower consents to the foregoing arrangements.

(c) Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may exercise all rights of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Credit Party. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 4.07 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 4.07 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

ARTICLE V

YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

SECTION 5.01. Additional Costs. (a) If the adoption of, or any change in, in each case after the Closing Date, any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or the NAIC made subsequent to the Closing Date (other than such adoptions or changes as may relate to the certain Lenders' indirect ownership of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries):

(i) shall subject any Lender or L/C Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note, any Letter of Credit or any Lender's participation therein, any L/C Document or any Loan made by it or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof by any Governmental Authority (except for taxes covered by or expressly excluded from coverage by, and expressly subject to, Section 5.06, Excluded Taxes, changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income or net profits of such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office, or any affiliate thereof or franchise taxes or similar taxes imposed with respect to or in lieu of its net income or net profits by any Governmental Authority);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement (including any Reserve Requirement) against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or L/C Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender or L/C Lender any other condition (excluding taxes);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or L/C Lender, by an amount which such Lender or L/C Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, then, in any such case, Borrower shall, within 10 days of written demand therefor, pay such Lender or L/C Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Lender on a net after-tax basis (taking into account any additional tax costs or tax benefits) for such increased cost. If any Lender or L/C Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Borrower, through Administrative Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts setting forth the calculation of such additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.01 submitted by such Lender or L/C Lender, through Administrative Agent, to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error. Without limiting the survival of any other covenant hereunder, this Section 5.01 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other Obligations payable hereunder.

(b) In the event that any Lender or L/C Lender shall have determined that the adoption after the Closing Date of any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy (or any change after the Closing Date therein or in the interpretation or application thereof) or compliance by any Lender or L/C Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or L/C Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or the NAIC, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, including, without limitation, the issuance after the Closing Date of any final rule, regulation or guideline, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or L/C Lender's or such corporation's capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or L/C Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or L/C Lender's or such corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or L/C Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender or L/C Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the affected Lender or L/C Lender and the basis for such request), Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender or L/C Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Lender on a net after-tax basis for such reduction.

(c) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or the L/C Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Lender pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Lender, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the change in law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or the L/C Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the change in law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 5.02. Inability To Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: (a) Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Base Rate for such Interest Period, or (b) Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Majority Lenders that Dollar deposits are not available in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period available to the Majority Lenders in their relevant market, Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any LIBOR Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans,

(y) any Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day of such Interest Period to LIBOR Loans shall be Converted to or Continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding LIBOR Loans shall be Converted, on the first day of such Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by Administrative Agent, no further LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued as such, nor shall Borrower have the right to Convert Loans to, LIBOR Loans.

SECTION 5.03. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any change after the Closing Date in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender or L/C Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans or issue Letters of Credit hereunder (and, in the sole opinion of such Lender or L/C Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender or L/C Lender), then such Lender or L/C Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof (with a copy to Administrative Agent) and such Lender's or L/C Lender's obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans or issue Letters of Credit shall be suspended until such time as such Lender or L/C Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans or issue Letters of Credit (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable).

SECTION 5.04. Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert ABR Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.03, such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into ABR Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such LIBOR Loans (or on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to Borrower with a copy to Administrative Agent as is required by law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.03 which gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender's LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans; and

(ii) all Loans which would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as ABR Loans and all ABR Loans of such Lender which would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as ABR Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to Borrower with a copy to Administrative Agent that the circumstances specified in Section 5.03 which gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender's LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 5.04 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans are outstanding, such Lender's ABR Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 5.05. Compensation. (a) Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (1) default by Borrower in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan, (2) default by Borrower in making a borrowing of, Conversion into or Continuation of LIBOR Loans after Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (3) default by Borrower or in making any prepayment after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (4) the Conversion or the making of a payment or a prepayment of LIBOR Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, including in each case, any such loss (but excluding any lost profit or loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

(b) For the purpose of calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 5.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBO Rate in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this subsection. Any Lender requesting compensation pursuant to this Section 5.05 will furnish to Administrative Agent and Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of such request and such certificate, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive. Without limiting the survival of any other covenant hereunder, this covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 5.06. Net Payments. (a) Except as provided in Section 5.06(b), all payments made by any Credit Party hereunder or under any Note or any Guarantee will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Except as provided in Section 5.06(b), all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future Taxes now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding any Excluded Tax) (all such Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) being referred to collectively as "Covered Taxes"). If any Covered Taxes are so levied or imposed, each Credit Party agrees on a joint and several basis to pay the full amount of such Covered Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement, the Guarantees or under any Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Covered Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note; provided that no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Lender under this Section 5.06 to the extent such additional amount relates to a portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any Note or Guarantee with respect to which such Lender does not act for its own account unless the beneficial owner would otherwise be entitled to such additional amount. Each Credit Party will furnish to Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Covered Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law documentation reasonably satisfactory to such Lender evidencing such payment by such Credit Party. The Credit Parties agree to jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Covered Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a "Non-U.S. Lender") agrees to deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.06 (unless the assigned or transferee Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and was in compliance with this Section 5.06(b) as of the date of such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note or any Guarantee (or, with respect to any assignee Lender, at least as extensive as the assigning Lender), or (ii) if the Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F (any such certificate, a "Foreign Lender Certificate") and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or successor form) certifying to such Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note (or, with respect to any assignee Lender, at least as extensive as the assigning Lender). Each Non-U.S.

Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any Note or Guarantee, shall deliver to Administrative Agent and to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof), on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), or on such later date when such Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent, (i) two original copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender under this Section 5.06(b), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account and is not subject to United States withholding tax, and (ii) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any information, if any, such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code or the regulations issued thereunder, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums paid or payable to such Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN, or Form W-8 and a Foreign Lender Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note or any Guarantee, or it shall immediately notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such Form or Certificate, in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any such form or certificate pursuant to this Section 5.06(b) for so long as such payments may be made free from United States withholding tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be required to deliver any such form or certificate if a change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to the date on which such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such form or certificate inapplicable or would prevent the Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or certificate with respect to it and such Lender so advises Borrower. No Credit Party shall be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender, or to pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender, in respect of any Covered Taxes to the extent that the obligation to pay such Covered Taxes would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.06(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.06, Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 5.06(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Covered Taxes.

(c) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery, filing, recordation or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

(d) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.06 agrees to use (at the Credit Parties' expense) reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such change would avoid the need for, or in the opinion of such Lender materially

reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(e) If (i) Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a cash refund in respect of an overpayment of Taxes from a Governmental Authority or a tax credit with respect to, and actually resulting from, an amount of Taxes actually paid to or on behalf of Administrative Agent or such Lender by Borrower (a "Tax Benefit") and (ii) Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its reasonable opinion that such Tax Benefit has been correctly paid or credited by such Governmental Authority or otherwise gives rise to a claim of credit that is actually claimed, and will not be required to be repaid to such Governmental Authority or otherwise disallowed, then Administrative Agent or such Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Borrower of such Tax Benefit and to forward the proceeds of such Tax Benefit (or relevant portion thereof) to Borrower as reduced by any expense or liability incurred by Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with obtaining such Tax Benefit.

ARTICLE VI

GUARANTEES

SECTION 6.01. The Guarantees. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee as primary obligors and not as sureties to each Creditor and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, Borrower, and all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Creditors by any Credit Party under any Credit Document or Swap Contract entered into with a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender and relating to the Loans, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof but in the case of Swap Contracts not if such Lender or Affiliate provides notice to Borrower that it does not want such Swap Contract to be secured (such obligations being herein collectively called the "Guaranteed Obligations"). The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if Borrower or other Subsidiary Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

SECTION 6.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 6.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Subsidiary Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Credit Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, L/C Lender or any Lender or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(v) the release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor.

The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Creditor thereof exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Subsidiary Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Creditor thereof upon this guarantee or acceptance of this guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this guarantee, and all dealings between Borrower and the Creditors shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this guarantee. This guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Creditors, and the obligations and liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Creditors or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Subsidiary Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

SECTION 6.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article VI shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower or other Credit Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify each Creditor on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Creditor in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or bad faith of such Creditor.

SECTION 6.04. Subrogation; Subordination. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 6.01,

whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor now or hereafter owing to any Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower by reason of any payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee in this Article VI is hereby subordinated to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of Borrower to such Subsidiary Guarantor until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, any Subsidiary Guarantor shall prior to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for Creditors and be paid over to Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of the guaranty contained herein.

SECTION 6.05. Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article XI (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article XI) for purposes of Section 6.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 6.01.

SECTION 6.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article VI, as set forth in Section 6.01, constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

SECTION 6.07. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article VI is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

SECTION 6.08. General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 6.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 6.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Creditor or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

SECTION 8.02. Financial Condition; Etc. (a) Borrower has delivered to the Lenders (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the related statements of earnings, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the fiscal year ended on date, together with reports thereon by BDO Seidman LLP, certified public accountants, and (ii) unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the related statements of earnings, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each fiscal quarter ended after December 31, 2002. All of said financial statements, including in each case the related schedules and notes, are true, complete and correct in all material respects and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and present fairly in all material respects the financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates of said balance sheets and the results of their operations for the respective periods covered thereby, subject (in the case of interim statements) to normal period-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes.

(a) None of the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Credit Document or Transaction Document to which it is a party nor the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated (including the Original Transactions or the New Transactions) do or will (i) conflict with or result in a breach of, or require any consent (which has not been obtained and is in full force and effect) under, any Organic Document of any Credit Party or any applicable Requirement of Law (including, without limitation, any Gaming Law) or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority binding on any Credit Party, or tortuously interfere with, result in a breach of, or require termination of, any term or provision of any Contractual Obligation of any Credit Party or (ii) constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any such Contractual Obligation, or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (except for the Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any Property of any Credit Party pursuant to the terms of any such Contractual Obligation, except with respect to each of the foregoing which would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 8.05. Action. Each Company has all necessary corporate power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each Credit Document and Transaction Document to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions herein and therein contemplated; the execution, delivery and performance by each Company of each Credit Document and Transaction Document to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein

SECTION 8.06. Approvals. No authorizations, approvals or consents of, and no filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority or any securities exchange are necessary for the execution, delivery or performance by any Company of the Credit Documents and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or for the legality, validity or enforceability hereof or thereof or for the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated, except for: (i) filings and recordings in respect of the Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents, (ii) the filing of the MGC Loan Report with the Mississippi Gaming Commission within 30 days after the Closing Date, (iii) the filings referred to in Section 8.15, (iv) waiver by the Gaming Authorities of any qualification requirement on the part of the Lenders who do not otherwise qualify or are not banks or licensed lending institutions, (v) prior approval of the Original Transactions and the New Transactions by the Gaming Authorities (in each case to the extent required), and (vi) consents, authorizations and filings that have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect or the failure of which to obtain would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 8.07. ERISA and Foreign Employee Benefit Matters. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would result in a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, no member of the ERISA Group maintains or contributes to any Pension Plan. Each ERISA Entity is in compliance with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan (other than to the extent such failure to comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect). Except as disclosed on Schedule 8.07 to the Original Credit Agreement, using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with Part 1 of Subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of any ERISA Entity to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan that precedes the Closing Date, would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Foreign Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such Plan (other than to the extent such failure to comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect). The aggregate of the liabilities to provide all of the accrued benefits under any funded Foreign Plan (based on reasonable assumptions used by such Plan) does not as of the most recent valuation report (or as of the end of the most recent plan year if there is no recent valuation report) exceed the current fair market value of the assets held in the trust or other funding vehicle for such Foreign Plan by an amount that would have a Material Adverse Effect. Other than to the extent such failure to comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to any unfunded Foreign Plan, reasonable reserves have been established in accordance with prudent business practice or where required by ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Plan is maintained. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened against Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any ERISA Entity with respect to any Foreign Plan that would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 8.08. Taxes. Except as set forth on Schedule 8.08 to the Original Credit Agreement or as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) all tax returns, statements, reports and forms or other documents (including estimated Tax or information returns and including any required, related or supporting information) (collectively, the "Tax Returns") required to be filed with any taxing authority by, or with respect to, Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries have been timely filed in accordance with all applicable laws; (ii) Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has timely paid or made provision for payment of all Taxes shown as due and payable on Tax Returns that have been so filed or that are otherwise due and payable (other than Taxes which are being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are reflected on other financial statements subsequently delivered hereunder; provided, however, that any contest of any Taxes relating to Collateral shall also satisfy the Contested Collateral Lien Conditions) and each Tax Return is complete in all material respects; and (iii) Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has made adequate provision in accordance with GAAP for all Taxes payable by Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary for which no Tax Return has yet been filed. Neither Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has received written notice of any proposed or pending tax assessment, audit or deficiency against Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary that would in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.

No extension of a statute of limitations relating to material Taxes is in effect with respect to Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and there are no material Tax sharing agreements or similar arrangements (including Tax indemnity arrangements) with respect to or involving Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries other than between or among Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries.

All deficiencies which have been asserted against Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of any Tax examination for each taxable year in respect of which an examination has been conducted have been fully paid or finally settled or are being contested in good faith, and no issue has been raised in any such examination which, by application of similar principles, reasonably can be expected to result in assertion of a material deficiency for any other year not so examined which has not been reserved for in the consolidated financial statements heretofore delivered to Administrative Agent to the extent, if any, required by GAAP.

SECTION 8.09. Investment Company Act; Public Utility Holding Company Act; Other Restrictions. Neither Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is an "investment company," or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," within the meaning of the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a "holding company," or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," within the meaning of the United States Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. Neither Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under any law or regulation which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness, other than Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Gaming Reserve System and the Gaming Law.

SECTION 8.10. Environmental Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 8.10 to the Original Credit Agreement or as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and each of their businesses, operations and Real Property is and in the last five years has been in material compliance with, and each has no liability under Environmental Law; (ii) each of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has obtained all Permits material to, and required for, the conduct of their businesses and operations, and the ownership, operation and use of their assets, all as currently conducted, under Environmental Law, all such Permits are valid and in good standing and, under the currently effective business plans of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, no material expenditures or operational adjustments could reasonably be expected to be required during the next five years in order to renew or modify such Permits; (iii) there has been no Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Material on, at, under or

from any real property or facility presently or formerly owned, leased, operated or, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, used for waste disposal by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their respective predecessors in interest that could reasonably be expected to result in liability to Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under Environmental Law; (iv) there is no Environmental Action pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened, against Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or, relating to real property currently or formerly owned, leased, operated or, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, used for waste disposal, by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or relating to the operations of Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries; (v) none of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is obligated to perform any action or otherwise incur any expense under Environmental Law pursuant to any legally binding order, decree, judgment or agreement by which it is bound or has assumed by contract or agreement, and none of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is conducting or financing any Response Action pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect to any location; and (vi) no circumstances exist that could reasonably be expected to (a) form the basis of an Environmental Action against Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their Real Property, facilities or assets or (b) cause any such Real Property, facilities or assets to be subject to any restriction on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any Environmental Law; (vii) no real property or facility presently or formerly owned, operated or leased by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, no real property or facility presently or formerly used for waste disposal by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or owned, leased, operated or used for waste disposal by any of their respective predecessors in interests is (a) listed or proposed for listing on the National Priorities List promulgated pursuant to CERCLA or (b) included on any similar list maintained by any Governmental Authority including, without limitation, any such list relating to petroleum; (viii) no real property or facility presently or formerly owned, or presently leased or operated by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, no real property or facility formerly leased or operated by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is listed on the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System promulgated pursuant to CERCLA as potentially requiring future Response Action; (ix) no Lien has been recorded or, to the knowledge of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened under any Environmental Law with respect to any Real Property or other assets of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; and (x) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not affect the validity or require the transfer of any Permit held by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under Environmental Law, and will not require any notification, registration, filing, reporting, disclosure, investigation, remediation or cleanup pursuant to any Governmental Real Property Disclosure Requirements with respect to each of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest.

SECTION 8.11. Environmental Investigations. As of the Closing Date, all material environmental audits or assessments in the possession, or custody of or prepared for or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date relating (i) to the current or prior business or operations of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest or (ii) to any Property or real property now or previously owned, operated, leased or used for waste disposal by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest, have been made available to the Creditors.

SECTION 8.12. Use of Proceeds. (a) Borrower will use the proceeds of (i) Revolving Loans for general corporate purposes and (ii) Incremental Loans to fund the buildout of slot machine or video lottery operations and/or related racing operations (including the costs to acquire related licenses) at Borrower's facilities in the State of Pennsylvania upon receipt by Borrower of the requisite gaming licenses from the State of Pennsylvania to operate such slot machine operations.

(b) No Company is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying Margin Stock and no part of the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder will be used directly or indirectly and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for such purpose or to refund Indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose.

SECTION 8.13. Subsidiaries. (a) The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 8.13(a) to the Original Credit Agreement constitute all the Subsidiaries of Borrower as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the Hollywood Acquisition. Schedule 8.13(a) to the Original Credit Agreement sets forth as of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the Hollywood Acquisition the name and jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of each Subsidiary and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage and number of each class of Equity Interests owned by Borrower and its Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, each of Onward Development, LLC, Tennessee Downs, Inc. and HWCC-Argentina, Inc. are Immaterial Subsidiaries.

(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 8.13(b) to the Original Credit Agreement, as of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors' qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Equity Interests of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, none of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has issued, or authorized the issuance of, any Disqualified Capital Stock.

SECTION 8.14. Ownership of Property; Liens.

Except as may be disclosed to the Lenders and/or Collateral Agent prior to the date of the applicable Borrowing) substantially all of the assets and Property owned by, leased to or used by Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in its respective businesses are in good operating condition and repair in all material respects, ordinary wear and tear excepted, are free and clear of any known material defects except such defects as do not substantially interfere with the continued use thereof in the conduct of normal operations, and are reasonably able to serve the function for which they are currently being used, except in each case where the failure of such asset to meet such requirements would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither any Credit Document, nor any transaction contemplated under any such document, will affect any right, title or interest of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in or to any of such assets in a manner that would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or, with respect to any Real Property leased by any Credit Party as tenant, the fee owner of such Real Property) holds all material licenses, certificates of occupancy or operation and similar certificates and clearances of municipal and other authorities necessary to own, lease and operate its properties in the manner and for the purposes currently operated by such party, except as would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

There is no fact known to Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that would have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Credit Documents, in the Confidential Information Memorandum or in any other documents, certificates and written statements furnished to Lead Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents.

As of the Closing Date, no claim is pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened to the effect that Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries infringes or conflicts with the asserted rights of any other person under any material Intellectual Property and, as of the Closing Date, to the best knowledge of Borrower, there is no reasonable basis for any such claim (whether or not pending or threatened) except for such claims that would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, no claim is pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened to the effect that any such material Intellectual Property owned or licensed by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or which Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries otherwise has the right to use is invalid or unenforceable except for such claims that would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.

As of the Closing Date, each Credit Party owns or has the right to use all Intellectual Property listed in Schedules 11(a), 11(b) and 11(c) to the Perfection Certificate and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not alter or impair any such rights.

ARTICLE XII

AGENTS

SECTION 12.01. General Provisions. Each of the Lenders, Agents, Swingline Lender and L/C Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the Security Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent agrees to give promptly to each Lender a copy of

each notice or other document received by it pursuant to any Credit Document (other than any that are required to be delivered to the Lenders by any Credit Party). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Majority Lenders may replace Administrative Agent at any time in the event of willful misconduct or gross negligence by Administrative Agent in the administration of the duties and obligations expressly authorized herein as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

The Lender or other financial institution serving as any 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 such Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Company or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not such Agent hereunder.

No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by Section 13.04), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Company that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by Section 13.04) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to Administrative Agent and such Agent by Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VII or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent or (vi) making a determination that any condition precedent set forth in Article VII that is to be to such Agent's satisfaction is satisfied.

Each 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for 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. Each Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by Section 13.04) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action (it being understood that this provision shall not release Administrative Agent from performing any action with respect to Borrower expressly required to be

100

performed by it pursuant to the terms hereof) under this Agreement. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any Credit Document in accordance with a request of the Majority Lenders provided, however, that any Agent shall be required to act or refrain from acting at the request of all of the Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent and reasonably acceptable to Borrower. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors ("Agent Related Parties"). The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Agent Related Parties of each 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 of such Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, L/C Lender (with respect to Administrative Agent only) and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor which, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and L/C Lender, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank which, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XII shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Agent Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as such Agent.

Subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Laws, Lead Arrangers may replace Collateral Agent at any time for any reason with another institution with the consent of Borrower (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default). The appointment of any successor Collateral Agent shall be effective upon the acceptance of such appointment.

The Lenders identified in this Agreement as the Sole Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Sole Syndication Agent or the Documentation Agents shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the Sole Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender in this Article XII.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender 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 any Agent or any other Lender 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 related agreement or

101

any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. No Agent shall be deemed a trustee or other fiduciary on behalf of any party.

SECTION 12.02. Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 13.03, but without limiting the obligations of any Credit Party under Section 13.03), ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the respective Commitments of and/or Loans and Reimbursement Obligations held by the Lenders (or, if all of the Commitments shall have been terminated or expired, ratably in accordance with the aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations held by the Lenders), for any and all liabilities (including pursuant to any Environmental Law), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, deficiencies, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of any Credit Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Agent under or in respect of any of the Credit Documents or other such documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (including the costs and expenses that the Credit Parties are obligated to pay under Section 13.03, and including also any payments under any indemnity granted pursuant to Section 12.04 of the Security Agreement, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The agreements set forth in this Section 12.02 shall survive the payment of all Loans and other obligations hereunder and shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other indemnification agreements contained in any other Credit Document.

SECTION 12.03. Consents Under Other Credit Documents. Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Documents including, without limiting Section 13.04 hereof Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Majority Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the other Credit Documents.

SECTION 12.04. Collateral Sub-Agents. Each Lender by its execution and delivery of this Agreement agrees, as contemplated by Article VIII of the Security Agreement, that, in the event it shall hold any Cash Equivalents referred to therein, upon the written request of Administrative Agent following the occurrence of an Event of Default and the execution and delivery by Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Credit Party of a mutually acceptable control agreement with respect to such Cash Equivalent (it being understood that no Lender is obligated to enter into any such control agreement), such Cash Equivalents shall be held in the name and under the control of such Lender, and such Lender shall hold such Cash Equivalents as a collateral sub-agent for Administrative Agent thereunder. Each Credit Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing. In such event, such Lender acting in the capacity of a sub-agent shall be afforded all protections set forth in this Article XII as if acting as Administrative Agent with respect to such holdings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, except as set forth in Section 4.07 hereof, no Lender (other than Administrative Agent acting in such capacity) which is acting as a Financial Intermediary (as defined in the Security Agreement) with respect to any Securities Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) shall have any duty or obligation (whether express or implied) to the other Lenders in respect of such Securities Collateral or the disposition thereof unless such Lender, Administrative Agent and the applicable Credit Party have entered into a Financial Account Consent Agreement (as defined in the Security Agreement) or other control or similar agreement with respect to such Securities Collateral (it being understood that no Lender shall have any obligation to enter into any such agreement).

102

SECTION 12.05. Post Effective Date Authority. Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent are authorized (and Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall cooperate therewith) to take any and all actions to effectuate the intent and purposes of this amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement to occur on the Effective Date (including, without limitation, to provide for all matters contemplated by Sections 7.01(i) and 9.13).

ARTICLE XIII

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 13.01. Waiver. No failure on the part of any Creditor to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 13.02. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications provided for herein and under the Security Documents (including any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including by facsimile) delivered to the intended recipient at the "Address for Notices" specified below its name on the signature pages hereof (or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as so specified for Borrower) or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by facsimile or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid. Any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall be deemed to have been received when actually received.

SECTION 13.03. Expenses, Indemnification, Etc. (a) The Credit Parties, jointly and severally, agree to pay or reimburse:

(i) Agents and the Swingline Lender for all of their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP(and one local counsel in each jurisdiction reasonably deemed necessary by Agents)) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the extension and syndication of credit hereunder, (2) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any modification, supplement, amendment or waiver of any of the terms of any Credit Document (whether or not consummated or effective) requested by the Credit Parties, (3) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the enforcement of any Credit Document, and (4) the syndication of the Loans and Commitments;

(ii) each Creditor for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Creditor (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel for Lenders and Agents) in connection with (1) any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from any Default, including all manner of participation in or other involvement with (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings and (z) workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated), (2) the enforcement of this Section 13.03 and (3) any documentary taxes; and

(iii) Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Credit Document or any other document referred to therein.

103

Without limiting the rights of any Lender under this Section 13.03(a), each Lender, upon request of Borrower from time to time, will advise Borrower of an estimate of any amount anticipated to be recovered under this Section 13.03(a).

(b) The Credit Parties, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify each Creditor and their respective Affiliates, directors, trustees, officers, employees and agents (each, an "Indemnitee") from, and hold each of them harmless against, and that no Indemnitee will have any liability for, any and all Losses incurred by any of them (including any and all Losses incurred by any Agent, Swingline Lender or L/C Lender to any Lender, whether or not any Creditor is a party thereto) directly or indirectly arising out of or by reason of or relating to the negotiation, execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of any Credit Document, any of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the Transactions), any breach by any Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in any Credit Document in connection with any of the Transactions, the use or proposed use of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit, the issuance of or performance under any Letter of Credit or the use of any collateral security for the Loans (including the exercise by any Creditor of the rights and remedies or any power of attorney with respect thereto and any action or inaction in respect thereof), including all amounts payable by any Lender pursuant to Section 12.02, but excluding any such Losses to the extent finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify each Creditor and each other Indemnitee from, and hold each Creditor and each other Indemnitee harmless against, any Losses described in the preceding sentence arising under any Environmental Law as a result of (i) the past, present or future operations of any Company (or any predecessor in interest to any Company), (ii) the past, present or future condition of any site or facility owned, operated, leased or used at any time by any Company (or any such predecessor in interest) to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company's (or such predecessor in interest's) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, or (iii) any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any such site or facility to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company's (or such predecessor in interest's) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, including any such Release or threatened Release that shall occur during any period when any Creditor shall be in possession of any such site or facility following the exercise by such Creditor of any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under any of the Security Documents; provided, however, that the indemnity hereunder shall be subject to the exclusions from indemnification set forth in the preceding sentence.

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 13.03 or any other provision of any Credit Document providing for indemnification is unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy or otherwise, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, shall contribute the maximum portion that each of them is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by any of the persons indemnified hereunder.

The Credit Parties also agree that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) for any Losses to any Credit Party or any Credit Party's security holders or creditors resulting from, arising out of, in any way related to or by reason of any matter referred to in any indemnification or expense reimbursement provisions set forth in any Credit

104

Document, except to the extent that any Loss is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

The Credit Parties agree that, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and the Majority Lenders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, no Credit Party will settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which indemnification is reasonably likely to be sought under the indemnification provisions of this Section 13.03 (whether or not any Indemnitee is an actual or potential party to such Proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional written release of each Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such Proceeding and does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee and does not involve any payment of money or other value by any Indemnitee or any injunctive relief or factual findings or stipulations binding on any Indemnitee.

SECTION 13.04. Amendments, Etc. (i) No provision of any Credit Document may be amended, modified or supplemented except by an instrument in writing signed by the Credit Parties party thereto and the Majority Lenders, or by the Credit Parties party thereto and Administrative Agent acting with the written consent of the Majority Lenders, and no provision of any Credit Document may be waived except by an instrument in writing signed by the Credit Parties party thereto and the Majority Lenders, or by the Credit Parties party thereto and Administrative Agent acting with the written consent of the Majority Lenders; provided, however, that:

105

or substantially all the Collateral (except as permitted by the Credit Documents) or agree to additional obligations (other than the Obligations and any other extensions of credit under this Agreement (or any other agreement) consented to by the Majority Lenders) being secured by the Collateral, (IX) amend Section 13.03 or any other indemnification and expense reimbursement provision set forth in any Credit Document in any manner adverse to any Creditor or (X) provide for Interest Periods with a longer period than the then longest available Interest Period;

(b) no such amendment or waiver shall increase the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that amendments or waivers of conditions precedent, covenants or Defaults shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender);

(c) any modification or supplement of or waiver with respect to Article XII which affects any Agent in its capacity as such shall require the consent of such Agent;

(d) no consent of any Lender need be obtained, and Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien securing the Obligations on Property which is the subject of any disposition permitted by the Credit Documents and to release any Guarantee of a Subsidiary upon the sale of a majority of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary in accordance with the Credit Documents;

(e) subject to clause (a)(I) of the proviso to this Section 13.04(i), the consent of all of the Lenders of the affected Term Facility (but no other Lender or Agent) shall be required with respect to any extension of any scheduled Amortization Payment or any reduction in the amount of any scheduled Amortization Payment (except in accordance with Section 2.09 or Section 2.10);

(f) subject to Section 13.04(iv), no modification, supplement or waiver shall alter the provisions of the first paragraph of Section 2.10(b) in a manner that would reduce the proportion of any prepayment under Section 2.10(a) to be allocated to any Tranche or the order of application among the Tranches or the order of application to Loans within a Tranche or change the right of any Tranche to decline or to accept prepayments pursuant to Section 2.09(b) or 2.10(b), in each case without the consent of the Requisite Tranche Lenders of the Tranche proposed to be allocated a lesser prepayment or to have its order of priority changed or have the order of application within such Tranche changed as a result thereof (it being understood that the increase of any Tranche or the addition of a new tranche of credit that is afforded substantially the same rights under Section 2.10(b) as the Tranches of the same type are then treated under Section 2.10(b) shall only require the consent of the Majority Lenders); provided that no such consent is required in connection with the Incremental Loan Facility;

(g) no reduction of the percentage specified in the definition of "Majority Revolving Lenders" shall be made without the consent of each Revolving Lender (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender or Agent is needed);

(h) no reduction of the percentage specified in any subclause of the definition of "Requisite Tranche Lenders" shall be made without the consent of each Lender of the Tranche contemplated by such subclause (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender or Agent is needed);

(i) no amendment or waiver shall affect the rights or duties of L/C Lender in its capacity as such or alter the obligation of any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(e) or 2.03(f) without the consent of L/C Lender;

(j) no amendment or waiver shall affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such or alter the obligations of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.01(g) without the consent of the Swingline Lender;

106

(k) no consent of any Lender need be obtained to effect any amendment of any Credit Document necessary to comply with Section 9.09 or Section 9.12;

(l) no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver may be made to any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Revolving Facility set forth in subsection 7.02 without the written consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders, it being understood that amendments to or waivers of any representation or warranty or any covenant contained in any Credit Document, or of any Default, shall be deemed to be effective for purposes of determining whether the conditions precedent set forth in subsection 7.02 to the making of any extension of credit under the Revolving Loans have been satisfied regardless of whether the Majority Revolving Lenders shall have consented to such amendment or waiver;

(m) so long as any Term A Facility Loans, Revolving Loans, Incremental Loans (to the extent they are revolving loans), Swingline Loans or L/C Liabilities are outstanding or any Revolving Commitments are in effect, the date then in effect for any scheduled Amortization Payment or the scheduled final maturity of any Term B Facility, Loans, Term C Facility Loans or Incremental Loans (if such Incremental Loan is a Term Loan) having the terms thereof may not be made earlier than the date then in effect and the then applicable amount of any such Amortization Payment (other than the last Amortization Payment thereon) may not be increased without the consent of the Lenders holding a majority of the sum of the Revolving Loans, L/C Liabilities, Swingline Exposure, Unutilized R/C Commitments then in effect and Term A Facility Loans (such Lenders holding such credit exposure, the "Majority Pro Rata Lenders") then outstanding;

(n) no material change shall be made to the definition of "Eligible Person" or to Section 2.11(b) if such change violates any Gaming Law or if any applicable Gaming Authority prohibits such change; and

(o) no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver may be made to any covenants set forth in Section 10.08(a), (b) and (c) (excluding any component definitions relating thereof) without the written consent of (i) the Revolving Majority Lenders (including such Incremental Loans that are Revolving Loans) and (ii) with respect to those Lenders having Term A Facility Loans and Term A Facility Commitments, Term B Facility Loans and Term B Facility Commitments, Term C Facility Loans and Term C Facility Commitments, and any Incremental Loans or Incremental Loan Facility Commitments that are term loans, Lenders having at least a majority of the aggregate sum of the Term A Facility Loans and Term A Facility Commitments, Term B Facility Loans and Term B Facility Commitments, Term C Facility Loans and Term C Facility Commitments then outstanding, and the Incremental Loans that are term loans and Incremental Loan Facility Commitments that are term loans then outstanding.

(ii) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 13.04(i)(a), the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then Borrower shall have the right to replace one or more of such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11 so long as at the time of such replacement each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) with the consent of the Majority Lenders, other additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Majority Lenders, Majority Revolving Lenders and Requisite Tranche Lenders without notice to or consent of any other Lender or Agent on substantially the same basis as the Commitments (and related extensions of credit) are included on the Closing Date, and (B) it is agreed and understood that, subject to clauses (f), (m) and (n) of Section 13.04(i), any prepayment required by

107

Section 2.10 (and any corresponding reduction of the Revolving Commitments) may be modified, supplemented or waived by the Majority Lenders.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon any additional extensions of credit under this Agreement being approved by the written consent of the Majority Lenders, Lead Arrangers, Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties are hereby authorized to effect amendments (without notice to or the consent of any other Lender or Agent) to (i) Sections 1.01 and 1.03 for the purpose of including such appropriate defined terms as may be necessary and apply to such additional extensions of credit being incorporated into this Agreement to identify it as a separate Class of Loans (and within the definition of "Commitments," "Loans," etc.) hereunder (if necessary), and to include it in the various defined terms relating to required percentages of outstanding extensions of credit hereunder for purposes of amendments and waivers to the Credit Documents (e.g., "Majority Lenders," "Requisite Tranche Lenders") so long as treated on substantially the same terms as other Classes of Loans are then treated; (ii) Section 2.08 to effect conforming changes to reflect such new Class; (iii) Section 2.09 to treat any such new Class that is a term extension of credit on substantially the same terms as the Term Facilities are then treated (including, for any new Class held by lenders similar to the Lenders of the Term B Loan Facility and Incremental Loan Facilities having the terms thereof, the provisions of Section 2.09(b)) (it being understood that the order of application of optional prepayments to amortization payments for such new Class shall be as agreed between the Credit Parties and the lenders extending such new credit in their sole discretion) and to treat any such new Class that is a revolving facility on substantially the same terms as the Revolving Facility is then treated; (iv) Section 2.10(b) to treat any such new Class that is a term extension of credit on substantially the same terms as the Term Facilities are then treated (including, for any new Class held by lenders similar to the Lenders of the Term B Loan Facility and Incremental Loan Facilities having the terms thereof, the provisions of the last sentence of Section 2.10(b)(i)) (it being understood that the order of application of mandatory prepayments to amortization payments for such new Class shall be as agreed between the Credit Parties and the lenders extending such new credit in their sole discretion) and to treat any such new Class that is a revolving facility on substantially the same terms as the Revolving Facility is then treated; and (v) Section 3.01(b) to provide for the amortization for such new Class of Loans as provided for by the lenders thereof and the Credit Parties in their sole discretion so long as the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any new term extension of credit is not less than that of the then existing Term B Facility Loans and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any revolving extension of credit is not less than that of the Revolving Commitments then in effect.

SECTION 13.05. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 13.06. Assignments and Participations. (a) No Credit Party may assign its respective rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes or any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders.

(b) Each Lender may assign (which may be non-pro rata among Loans and Commitments) to any Eligible Person any of its Loans, its Notes, its L/C Interests and its Commitments, provided that (i) no such assignment to any such Eligible Person (other than any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any Approved Fund) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1.0 million other than in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender's interests under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by Borrower and Administrative Agent, (ii) in the case of any assignment of Revolving Commitments (other than to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender) the consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be required, (iii) no consent shall be required for any assignment by Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, (iv) in the case of any assignment of Term Loans the consent of Administrative Agent shall be required, (v) no consent of Borrower shall be required for an assignment by the Swingline Lender of the Swingline Loans, (vi) each assignment, other than to a Lender or any Lender's Affiliate or an Approved Fund of any Lender and other than any assignment effected by Lead

108

Arrangers or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the syndication of the Commitments and/or Loans or otherwise, shall not reduce the assignor's Loans and Commitments to less than $1.0 million (unless reduced to $0 or otherwise agreed to by Administrative Agent and, in the case of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, Borrower) and (vii) in no event may any such assignment be made to any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates without consent of all Lenders unless the Assignee agrees in writing that its Loans or Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for any matter under Section 13.04 or any other vote or consent of the Lenders under the Credit Documents; and provided, further that any consent of Borrower otherwise required under this clause (b) shall not be required if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Any assignment of a Loan shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of a Loan shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan (if a Note was issued in respect thereof), accompanied by a Notice of Assignment, and upon consent thereto by Borrower and Administrative Agent to the extent required above (none of which consents to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), one or more new Notes (if requested by the new Lender) in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee (or its nominee) and the old Notes shall be returned by Administrative Agent to Borrower marked "canceled". Upon execution and delivery by the assignee to Borrower and Lead Arrangers of a Notice of Assignment, and upon consent thereto by Borrower, Lead Arrangers and L/C Lender to the extent required above (none of which consents to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and in the case of a Loan, upon appropriate entries being made in the Register the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided in such assignment with the consent of Administrative Agent), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the Commitment(s), Loans (or portions thereof) and L/C Interests assigned to it (in addition to the Commitment(s), L/C Interests and Loans, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the Commitment(s) (or portion(s) thereof) so assigned. Upon any such assignment, certain rights and obligations of the assigning Lender shall survive as set forth in Section 13.07. Each assignment shall be made pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit N.

(c) Within 45 days after the effective date of any assignment of Loans, Notes, L/C Interests or Commitments that required the consent of Borrower, Borrower shall give notice of such assignment to the West Virginia Lottery Commission and the West Virginia Racing Commission.

(d) A Lender (other than Swingline Lender) may sell or agree to sell without notice to or consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent to one or more other persons a participation in all or any part of any Loans and L/C Interests held by it, or in its Commitments, in which event each purchaser of a participation (a "Participant") shall be entitled to the rights and benefits of the provisions of Article V (provided, however, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Article V than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the participation effected by such transferor Lender had no participation occurred) with respect to its participation in such Loans, L/C Interests and Commitments as if such Participant were a "Lender" for purposes of said Section, but, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.07(c), shall not have any other rights or benefits under any Credit Document (the Participant's rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant). All amounts payable by Borrower to any Lender under Article V in respect of Loans, L/C Interests and its Commitments shall be no greater than the amount that would have applied if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any participation in such Loans, L/C Interests and Commitments, and as if such Lender were funding each of such Loan, L/C Interests and Commitments in the same way that it is funding the portion of such Loan, L/C Interests and Commitments in which no participations have been sold. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document,

109

except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any modification or amendment set forth in subclauses (I), (II), (III) or (VIII) of clause (a) of the proviso to Section 13.04(i) to the extent such Lender's consent is required therefor.

(e) In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.06, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any United States Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank and, in the case of a Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, any such Lender may assign or pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities, or to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders, in each case, without notice to or consent of Borrower, Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers or L/C Lender. Any transfer as a result of the foreclosure on such pledge shall be subject to Section 13.06(b). No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(f) A Lender may furnish any information concerning any Company in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants) subject, however, to and so long as the recipient agrees to be bound by the provisions of Section 13.11. In addition, each Agent may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates in such Agent's possession to any Affiliate of such Agent, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 13.11. To the extent the Loans are not fully syndicated prior to the Closing Date, the Credit Parties shall assist Lead Arrangers in the granting participations in, or selling assignments of all or a portion of, the commitments or the loans under the Credit Facilities pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Lead Arrangers.

SECTION 13.07. Survival. The obligations of the Credit Parties under Sections 5.01, 5.05, 5.06 and 13.03, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 6.03, and the obligations of the Lenders under Sections 5.06 and 12.02, shall survive the repayment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and the termination of the Commitments and, in the case of any Lender that may assign any interest in its Commitments, Loans or L/C Interest hereunder, shall (to the extent relating to such time as it was a Lender) survive the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease to be a "Lender" hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any extension of credit, herein or pursuant hereto shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the making of any extension of credit hereunder, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty.

SECTION 13.08. Captions. The table of contents and captions and Section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 13.09. Counterparts; Interpretation; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the Original Fee Letter, the New Fee Letter and the Administrative Agent's Fee Letter constitute the entire contract among the parties thereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof, other than the Original Fee Letter and the provisions of Section 2 of the Commitment Letter, which are not superseded and survive solely as to the parties thereto. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

110

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 13.10. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Etc. (a) Pursuant to Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Laws of the State of New York, each Credit Document shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York (except in the case of the other Credit Documents, to the extent otherwise expressly stated therein). Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (I) submits for itself and its Property in any Proceeding relating to any Credit Document to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts thereof; (II) consents that any such Proceeding may be brought in any such court; (III) agrees that service of process in any such Proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to Borrower at its address set forth on the signature page hereto or at such other address of which Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and (IV) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction.

(b) EACH CREDIT PARTY, EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

SECTION 13.11. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to keep information obtained by it pursuant to the Credit Documents confidential in accordance with such Lender's customary practices and agrees that it will only use such information in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and not disclose any of such information other than (a) to such Lender's employees, representatives, directors, attorneys, auditors, agents, professional advisors, trustees or affiliates who are advised of the confidential nature thereof or to any direct or indirect creditor or contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such creditor, contractual counterparty's professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provision of this Section 13.11, such Lender being liable for any breach of confidentiality by any person described in this clause (a) and with respect to disclosures to Affiliates to the extent disclosed by such Lender to such Affiliate), (b) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a person not an Affiliate of such Lender not known to such Lender to be violating a confidentiality obligation by such disclosure, (c) to the extent disclosure is required by any Law, subpoena or judicial order or process (provided that notice of such requirement or order shall be promptly furnished to Borrower unless such notice is legally prohibited) or requested or required by bank, securities, insurance or investment company regulations or auditors or any administrative body or commission (including the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC) to whose jurisdiction such Lender is subject, (d) to any rating agency to the extent required in connection with any rating to be assigned to such Lender, provided that notice thereof is promptly furnished to Borrower, (e) to assignees or participants or prospective assignees or participants who agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.11, (f) to the extent required in connection with any litigation between any Credit Party and any Creditor with respect to the Loans or any Credit Document or (g) with Borrower's prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto (and each employee, representative, or other agent of the parties hereto) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to the tax structure of the transaction, provided, however, that no party (and no employee,

111

representative, or other agent thereof) shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to understanding the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction (including the identity of any party and any information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party), or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could result in a violation of any federal or state securities law.

SECTION 13.12. Independence of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall be independent of each other and no exception to any representation, warranty or covenant shall be deemed to be an exception to any other representation, warranty or covenant contained herein unless expressly provided, nor shall any such exception be deemed to permit any action or omission that would be in contravention of applicable law.

SECTION 13.13. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 13.14. Gaming Laws. (a)This Agreement and the other Credit Documents are subject to the Gaming Laws and the laws involving the sale, distribution and possession of alcoholic beverages (the "Liquor Laws"). Without limiting the foregoing, each of Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agents, Lenders and Participants acknowledges that (i) it is the subject of being called forward by the Gaming Authority or Governmental Authority enforcing the Liquor Laws (the "Liquor Authorities"), in their discretion, for licensing or a finding of suitability or to file or provide other information, and (ii) all rights, remedies and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including with respect to the entry into and ownership and operation of the Gaming Facilities, and the possession or control of gaming equipment, alcoholic beverages or a gaming or liquor license, may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provisions of the Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and only to the extent that required approvals (including prior approvals) are obtained from the requisite Governmental Authorities.

(b) Each of Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent and Documentation Agents and Lenders agrees to cooperate with the Gaming Authority (or to be subject to Section 2.11) in connection with the provisions of such documents or other information as may be requested by such Gaming Authority or Liquor Authorities relating to Borrower and its Subsidiaries or to the Credit Documents.
