EXHIBIT 10.1
MASTER SECURITY AGREEMENT
1. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; DESCRIPTION OF COLLATERAL
The Debtor named below grants to Secured Party a security interest in the
property described in the Schedules of Indebtedness and Collateral now or
hereafter executed by or pursuant to the authority of the Debtor and accepted by
Secured Party in writing (individually, a "Schedule" and collectively, the
"Schedules"), along with a present and future attachments and accessories
thereto and replacements and proceeds thereof, including amounts payable under
any insurance policy, all hereinafter referred to collectively as "Collateral."
Each Schedule shall be serially numbered. Unless and only to the extent
otherwise expressly provided in a Schedule, no Schedule shall replace any
previous Schedule but shall be supplementary to all previous Schedules.
2. WHAT OBLIGATIONS THE COLLATERAL SECURES.
Each item of Collateral shall secure not only the specific amount which
Debtor promises to pay in each Schedule, but also all other present and future
indebtedness or obligations of Debtor to Secured Party of every kind and nature
arising under this Security Agreement (collectively, the "Obligations").
3. PROMISE TO PAY; TERMS AND PLACE OF PAYMENT.
Debtor promises to pay Secured Party the amounts set forth on each Schedule
at the rate and upon such terms as provided therein.
4. USE OF COLLATERAL.
Debtor warrants and agrees that the Collateral is to be used primarily for
business or commercial purposes (other than agricultural).
Debtor and Secured Party agree that regardless of the manner of affixation,
the Collateral shall remain personal property and not become part of the real
estate. Debtor agrees to keep the Collateral at the location set forth in the
applicable Schedule, and will notify Secured Party promptly in writing of any
change in the location of the Collateral within such State, but will not remove
the collateral from such State without the prior written consent of Secured
Party.
5. LATE CHARGES AND OTHER FEES.
Any payment not made when due shall, at the option of Secured Party, bear
late charges thereon calculated at the rate of 1 1/2% per month, but in no event
greater than the highest rate permitted by relevant law. Debtor shall be
responsible for and pay to Secured Party a returned check fee, not to exceed the
maximum permitted by law, which fee will be equal to the sum of (i) the actual
bank charges incurred by Secured Party plus (ii) all other actual costs and
expenses incurred by Secured Party. Returned check fees are payable upon demand

(m) that Debtor will not transfer its principal place of business or chief

by Secured Party, in form satisfactory to Secured Party to perfect or
continue the perfection of Secured Party's lien and security interest
hereunder,
(n) to cause to be prepared and furnished to Secured Party the following
(all to be kept and prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a
consistent basis, unless Debtor's certified public accountants concur
in any change therein and such change is disclosed to Secured Party
and is consistent with GAAP): (i) as soon as possible, but not later
than ninety (90) days after the close of each fiscal year of Debtor,
unqualified audited financial statements of Debtor as of the end of
4
such year, certified by a firm of independent certified public
accountants of recognized national standing or otherwise acceptable to

five (45) days after the end of each of Debtor's fiscal quarter
hereafter, unaudited interim financial statements of Debtor as of the
end of such quarter and of the portion of Debtor's fiscal year then

prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly presenting the financial
position and results of operations of Debtor for such quarter and
period. Concurrently with the delivery of the financial statements
described in clause (i) of this Paragraph, Debtor shall furnish to
Secured Party a copy of the accountants' letter to Debtor's
management, if any, that is prepared in connection with such financial
statements. Concurrently with the delivery of the financial
statements described in this Paragraph, Debtor shall cause to be
prepared and furnished to Secured Party a certificate from the chief
financial officer of Debtor certifying to Secured Party that to the
best of his knowledge, Debtor has kept, observed, performed and
fulfilled each and every covenant, obligation and agreement binding
upon Debtor in this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and that no Event of Default has occurred, or, if such Event of
Default has occurred, specifying the nature hereof;
(o) that all the covenants and agreements made by Debtor, Coast Resorts,
Inc. and Coast West, Inc. in the $175,000,000 13% First Mortgage Notes
Indenture dated as of January 30, 1996 (the "Indenture") by and among
Debtor, Coast West, Inc., Coast Resorts, Inc., and American Bank
National Association as trustee, are incorporated herein and made part
hereof as such covenants and agreements were in effect on July 1, 1996
(without giving effect to any waiver or amendment of such covenants
and agreements after July 1, 1996 except as provided in the last
paragraph of this Section 7);
(p) within ten (10) business days of the date of this Security Agreement,
to execute and deliver to the Nevada Gaming Commission a report in
compliance with Regulation 8.130 of that Commission reporting the loan
made under this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
to give simultaneously a copy of the filed report to Secured Party;
(q) it will not declare or pay any dividend (other than a dividend payable
in stock of the Debtor) or authorize or make any other distribution on
any stock of the Debtor, whether now or hereafter outstanding which
would exceed (i) 50% of the Debtor's after tax net profit for the
preceding fiscal year or (ii) $3,000,000.00 annually, whichever is
less; and
(r) it will not consent or agree to the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance,
or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation
with Coast Resorts, Inc.) of all or substantially all of the Debtor's
assets.
Debtor's obligation to comply with the covenants and agreements in the
Indenture as such covenants and agreements were in effect on July 1, 1996,
applies only to amendments which (i) impair Secured Party's rights in the
Collateral or (ii) materially impair Debtor's ability to pay the Obligations.
With respect to amendments not covered by clauses (i) and (ii), Secured Party
agrees that Debtor shall comply with the applicable covenant or agreement as
amended. With respect to amendments which (y) do impair Secured Party's rights
in the Collateral or (z) do materially impair Debtor's ability to pay the
Obligations, such amendments shall be accorded no effect for purposes hereof and
Debtor shall comply with the applicable covenant or agreement as if it had not
been amended.
The parties hereto agree that any and all amendments and other
modifications of whatever kind to Section 4.09 of the Indenture subsequent to
July 1, 1996 shall be deemed to (i) impair Secured Party's rights in the
collateral and (ii) materially impair Debtor's ability to pay the Obligations,
and shall be accorded no effect for the purposes hereof and Debtor shall comply
with Section 4.09 as if it had not been amended or modified.
5
8. INSURANCE AND RISK OF LOSS.
All risk of loss, damage to or destruction of the Collateral shall at all
times be on Debtor. Debtor will procure forthwith and maintain at Debtor's
expense insurance against all risks of loss or physical damage to the Collateral
for the full insurable value thereof for the life of this Security Agreement
plus breach of warranty insurance and such other insurance thereon in amounts
and against such risks as Secured Party may specify, and shall promptly deliver
each policy to Secured Party with a standard long-form mortgagee endorsement
attached thereto showing loss payable to Secured Party; and providing Secured
Party with not less than 30 days written notice of cancellation; each such
policy shall be in form, terms and amount and with insurance carriers
satisfactory to Secured Party; Secured Party's acceptance of policies in lesser
amounts or risks shall not be a waiver of Debtor's foregoing obligations. As to
Secured Party's interest in such policy, no act or omission of Debtor or any of
its officers, agents, employees or representatives shall affect the obligations
of the insurer to pay the full amount of any loss. The insurance maintained by
Debtor should be primary without any right of contribution from insurance which
may be maintained by Secured Party. Debtor shall be liable for all deductible
portions of all required insurance.
Debtor hereby assigns to Secured Party any moneys which may become payable
under any such policy of insurance and irrevocably constitutes and appoints
Secured Party as Debtor's attorney in fact (a) to hold each original insurance
policy, (b) to make, settle and adjust claims under each policy of insurance,
(c) to make claims for any moneys which may become payable under such and other
insurance on the Collateral including returned or unearned premiums, and (d) to
endorse Debtor's on any check, draft or other instrument received in payment of
claims or returned or unearned premiums under each policy and to apply the funds
to the payment of the Obligations owing to Secured Party; provided, however,
Secured Party is under no obligation to do any of the foregoing.
Should Debtor fail to furnish such insurance policy to Secured Party, or to
maintain such policy in full force, or to pay any premium in whole or in part
relating thereto, then Secured Party, without waiving or releasing any default
or obligation by Debtor, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and
maintain insurance and pay the premium therefor on behalf of Debtor and charge
the premium to Debtor's Obligations under this Security Agreement. The full
amount of any such premium paid by Secured Party shall be payable by Debtor upon
demand, and failure to pay same shall constitute an event of default under this
Security Agreement.
9. EVENTS OF DEFAULT; ACCELERATION.
A very important element of this Security Agreement is that Debtor make all
its payments promptly as agreed upon. It is essential that the Collateral
remain in good condition and adequate security for the Obligations. Each of the
following is an Event of Default under this Security Agreement which will allow
Secured Party to take such action under this Paragraph and under Paragraph 10 as
it deems necessary:
(a) Debtor shall fail to pay any installment of principal or interest
owing with respect to a Schedule within fifteen (15) days after the
due date thereof;
(b) Debtor shaft fail to pay any of the Obligations not evidenced by a
Schedule on the due date thereof (whether due at stated maturity, on
demand, upon acceleration or otherwise) and such failure shall not be
cured within fifteen (I 5) days after the date on which Secured Party
gives to Debtor written notice of Debtor's failure to make such
payment on or before the due date thereof;
(c) Debtor breaches any warranty or provision hereof, or of any other Loan
Document, any note or of any other instrument or agreement delivered
by Debtor to Secured Party in connection with this or any other
transaction;
(d) Coast Resorts, Inc. shall fail to comply with the terms of the non-
spinoff letter dated October 24, 1996.
6
(e) it is determined that Debtor has given Secured Party materially
misleading information regarding its financial condition;
(f) there shall occur any loss, theft, damage or destruction of Collateral
not fully covered by insurance (as required by this Security Agreement
and subject to such deductibles as Secured Party shall have agreed to
in writing), or the making of any levy, seizure, or attachment thereof
or thereon;
(g) Debtor shall (i) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, (ii) make an assignment for the benefit
of its creditors, or (iii) commence a proceeding for the appointment
of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of itself or of the
whole or any substantial part of its property, or (iv) a compliant or
petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement or any
similar relief under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any other
applicable law or statute of the United States of America or any state
is filed by or against the Debtor and, if filed against the Debtor,
continues unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 days, or (v) a
court of competent jurisdiction, trustee or conservator shall
otherwise assume custody or control of the Debtor or of the whole or
any substantial part of its assets;
(h) Debtor fails to maintain any and all licenses, permits, approvals or
authorizations of any kind necessary under Nevada statutes or required
by the Nevada Gaming Commission to engage in the business of operating
a Casino. For the purposes hereof "Casino" shall mean a gaming
establishment and other property or assets ancillary thereto or used
in connection therewith, including restaurants, hotels, theaters, non-
gaming retail businesses, and golf courses and other recreation and
entertainment facilities;
(i) [intentionally left blank]
(j) there shall occur any default or event of default on the part of
Debtor under any agreement, document or instrument to which Debtor is
a party or by which Debtor or any of its property is bound, creating
or relating to any indebtedness;
(k) there shall occur any material adverse change in the financial
condition or business prospects of Debtor;
(l) Debtor, Coast Resorts, Inc., or Coast West, Inc. shall breach any of
the covenants set forth in the Indenture in effect on July 1, 1996
(without giving effect to any waiver or amendment of any such covenant
on or after July 1, 1996 except as provided in the last paragraph of
Section 7 and without regarding whether the payment or maturity of the
indebtedness incurred under the Indenture is accelerated in
consequence of such breach);
(m) there shall occur any default or event of default on the part of Coast
Resorts, Inc. under any agreement, document or instrument (other than
the Indenture and related documents) to which it is a party or by
which it or any of its property is bound, provided Coast Resorts, Inc.
obligations owing upon such default under or related to such
agreement, document or instrument exceeds $5,000,000 or its foreign
currency equivalent; and
(n) there shall occur any Event of Default on the part of Coast Resorts,
Inc., under the Stock Pledge and Security Agreement (the "Pledge
Agreement") dated as of January 30, 1996, (as Event of Default is
defined in such Pledge Agreement) in favor of American Bank National
Association as trustee ("Trustee"), and as a result thereof, such
Trustee exercises any rights or remedies with regard to Shareholder's
Stock (as such term is defined in the Pledge Agreement).
7
If an Event of Default shall occur, the Obligations described in each
Schedule and all other Obligations then owing by Debtor to Secured Party under
this or any other present or future agreement shall, if Secured Party shall so
elect, become immediately due and payable. After acceleration:
(a) the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations described in any
Schedule in which interest has been precomputed shall bear interest at
the rate of 18% per annum (or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by
law) until paid in full; and
(b) the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations described in any
Schedule in which interest has not been precomputed shall bear
interest at the same rate as before acceleration until paid in full.
In no event shall the Debtor upon demand by Secured Party for payment of
the Obligations, by acceleration of the maturity thereof or otherwise, be
obligated to pay any interest in excess of the amount permitted by law. Any
acceleration of the Obligations, if elected by Secured Party, shall be subject
to all applicable laws, including laws relating to rebates and refunds of
unearned charges.
Secured Party agrees that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
it shall not exercise its remedies pursuant to Section 10 with respect to Events
of Default under clauses (c) through (1), with the exception of clauses (g) and
clause (c) as applied to Section 7(a), unless (i) Secured Party first notifies
Debtor that such Event of Default has occurred and (ii) permits Debtor fifteen
(15) days to cure such Event of Default. With respect to clause (g), Secured
Party is not required to give notice prior to declaring an Event of Default, and
the cure periods applicable thereto are set forth therein. With respect to
clause (g) and clause (c) as applied to Section 7(a), an Event of Default shall
not be deemed to have occurred until Debtor shall have failed to cure the
default under the Indenture within a reasonable period. If such default is not
curable within a reasonable time period, Debtor shall provide Secured Party with
such additional documents, security or assurances as Secured Party shall
reasonably request.
10. SECURED PARTY'S REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT; CONSENT TO ENTER PREMISES.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (and the failure of Debtor to
remedy such Event of Default during the time period, if any, provided Debtor to
remedy such Event of Default) and at any time thereafter, Secured Party shall
have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
Code and any other applicable laws, including the right to any deficiency
remaining after disposition of the Collateral for which Debtor hereby agrees to
remain fully liable. Debtor agrees that Secured Party, by itself or its agent,
may without notice to any person and without judicial process of any kind, enter
into any premises or upon any land owned, leased or otherwise under the real or
apparent control of Debtor or any agent of Debtor where the Collateral may be or
where Secured Party believes the Collateral may be, and disassemble, render
unusable and/or repossess all or any item of the Collateral, disconnecting and
separating all Collateral from any other property and using all force necessary.
Debtor expressly waives all further rights to possession of the Collateral after
default and all claims for injuries suffered through or loss caused by such
entering and/or repossession. Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble the
Collateral and return it to Secured Party at a place to be designated by Secured
Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
Secured Party may sell or lease the Collateral at a time and location of
its choosing provided that the Secured Party acts in good faith and in a
commercially reasonable manner. Secured Party will give Debtor reasonable
notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or of the time
after which any private sale or any other intended disposition of the Collateral
is to be made. Unless otherwise provided by law, the requirement of reasonable
notice shall be met if such notice is mailed, postage prepaid, to the address of
Debtor shown herein at least ten days before the time of the sale or
disposition. Expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the
like shall include reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal expenses. Debtor
understands that Secured Party's rights are cumulative and not alternative.
Secured Party is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without
charge, Debtor's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, tradenames, trademarks and advertising matter, or any
8
property of similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for
sale and selling any Collateral and Debtor's rights under all licenses and all
franchise agreements shall inure to Secured Party's benefit. The proceeds
realized from the sale of any Collateral may be applied, after allowing two (2)
business days for collection, first to the reasonable costs, expenses and
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Secured Party for collection and for
acquisition, completion, protection, removal, storage, sale and delivery of the
Collateral; secondly, to interest due upon any of the Obligations; and thirdly,
to the principal of the Obligations. If any deficiency shall arise, Debtor and
Guarantor shall remain liable to Secured Party therefor.
11. WAIVER OF DEFAULTS; AGREEMENT INCLUSIVE.
Secured Party may in its sole discretion waive an Event of Default, or
cure, at Debtor's expense, an Event of Default. Any such waiver in a particular
instance or of a particular Event of Default shall not be a waiver of any other
Event of Defaults or the same kind of default at another time. No modification
or change in this Security Agreement or any related note, instrument or
agreement shall bind Secured Party unless in writing signed by Secured Party.
No oral agreement shall be binding.
12. FINANCING STATEMENTS; CERTAIN EXPENSES.
If permitted by law, Debtor authorizes Secured Party to file a financing
statement with respect to the Collateral signed only by Secured Party, and to
file a carbon, photocopy or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or of
a financing statement. At the request of Secured Party, Debtor will execute any
financing statements, agreements or documents, in form satisfactory to Secured
Party which Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to establish and
maintain a perfected security interest in the Collateral.
13. WAIVER OF DEFENSES ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
If Secured Party assigns a Schedule under this Security Agreement to a
third party ('Assignee'), then after such assignment:
(a) Debtor will make all payments due under such Schedule directly to such
Assignee at such place as Assignee may from time to time designate in
writing;
(b) Debtor agrees that it will settle all claims, defenses, setoffs and
counterclaims it may have against Secured Party directly with Secured
Party and will not set up any such claim, defense, setoff or
counterclaim against Assignee, Secured Party hereby agreeing to remain
responsible therefor;
(c) Secured Party shall not be Assignee's agent for any purpose and shall
have no authority to change or modify such Schedule or any related
document or instrument; and
(d) Assignee shall have all of the rights and remedies of Secured Party
hereunder with respect to such assigned Schedule but none of Secured
Party's obligations.
14. MISCELLANEOUS.
Debtor waives all exemptions. Secured Party may correct patent errors
herein and fill in such blanks as serial numbers, date of first payment and the
like. Any provisions hereof contra! to, prohibited by or invalid under
applicable laws or regulations shall be inapplicable and deemed omitted
herefrom, but shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof.
Debtor and Secured Party each hereby waive any right to a trial by jury in
any action or proceeding with respect to, in connection with, or arising out of
this Security Agreement, or any note or document delivered pursuant to this
Security Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable law,
the Debtor shall have no right to prepay the indebtedness described in any
Schedule. Debtor acknowledges receipt of a true copy and waives acceptance
hereof.
9
If Debtor is a corporation, this Security Agreement is executed pursuant to
authority of its Board of Directors. Except where the context otherwise
requires, 'Debtor' and 'Secured Party' include the heirs, executors or
administrators, successors or assigns of those parties; nothing herein shall
authorize Debtor to assign this Security Agreement or its rights in and to the
Collateral. If more than one Debtor executes this Security Agreement, their
obligations under this Security Agreement shall be joint and several.
If at any time this transaction would be usurious under applicable law,
then regardless of any provision contained in this Security Agreement or in any
other agreement made in connection with this transaction, it is agreed that:
(a) The total of all consideration which constitutes interest under
applicable law that is contracted for, charged or received upon this
Security Agreement or any such other agreement shall under no
