with a bank or trust company designated by it and reasonably acceptable to
Company (the "EXCHANGE AGENT"), for the benefit of the holders of shares of
Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, for
exchange in accordance with this Section 3.2, through the Exchange Agent,
certificates representing the shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock issuable
pursuant to Section 3.1 in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common
Stock (such shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock, together with any dividends or
distributions with respect thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the
"EXCHANGE FUND").

(b) EXCHANGE PROCEDURES. As soon as reasonably practicable after the
Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a
certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time
represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (the "CERTIFICATES"),
which shares were converted pursuant to Section 3.1 into the right to receive
shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall
specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title

to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the
Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as
Gaming Co. and Company may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for
effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates
representing shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock (plus cash in lieu of fractional
shares, if any, of Gaming Co. Common Stock as provided below). Upon surrender of
a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or
agents as may be appointed by Gaming Co. and reasonably acceptable to Company,
together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such
Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate
representing that number of whole shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock which such
holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article III,
and the Certificate so surrendered shall immediately be canceled. In the event
of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock prior to the Effective Time
which is not registered in the transfer records of Company, a certificate
representing the proper number of shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock may be
issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Company Common Stock
is presented to the Exchange Agent accompanied by all documents required to
evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock
transfer taxes have been paid. After the Effective Time, each outstanding
Certificate which theretofore represented shares of Company Common Stock shall
represent only the right to receive shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock (and cash
in lieu of fractional shares, if any) pursuant to the terms hereof and shall not
be deemed to evidence ownership of the number of shares of Gaming Co. Common
Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock were converted until the
Certificate therefor shall have been surrendered in accordance with this Section
3.2.

(c) DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO UNEXCHANGED SHARES. No dividends or
other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to
Gaming Co. Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be
paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares
of Gaming Co. Common Stock the holder thereof is entitled to receive in exchange
therefor and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any
such holder pursuant to subsection (e) below until the holder of record of such
Certificate surrenders such Certificate. Subject to the effect of Applicable
Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate there shall be paid to the
record holder of the certificates representing whole shares of Gaming Co. Common
Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such
surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of
Gaming Co. Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to subsection
(e) below and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date
after the Effective Time previously paid with respect to such whole shares of
Gaming Co. Common Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of
dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but
prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender payable with
respect to such whole shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock.

(d) NO FURTHER OWNERSHIP RIGHTS IN COMPANY COMMON STOCK. All shares of
Gaming Co. Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates
in accordance with the terms hereof (and any cash paid pursuant to subsection
(c) or (e) of this Section 3.2) shall be deemed to have been issued in full
satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock
theretofore represented by such Certificates, subject, however, to the Surviving
Corporation's obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions
with a record date prior to the Effective Time which may have been declared or
made by Company on such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement (to the extent permitted under Section 6.1) or prior to
the date hereof and which remain unpaid at the time of such surrender; and from
and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers
on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of
Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving
Corporation or Gaming Co. for any reason, such Certificates shall be canceled
and exchanged as provided in this Section 3.2.

(e) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No certificate or scrip representing fractional
shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for
exchange of Certificates, and such fractional share interests will not entitle
the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Gaming Co.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of
Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to
receive a fraction of a share of Gaming Co. Common Stock (after taking into

standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the
ownership or leasing of its properties makes such qualifications or licensing
necessary, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified

Incorporation and Company Bylaws and the comparable charter or organizational
documents of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as amended to the date of this
Agreement.

Material Adverse Effect with respect to Company or the Company Retained
Business; (2) impair, in any material respect, the ability of Company or Lakes
to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a
party; or (3) prevent or significantly delay the consummation of the

and will not, apply to the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder.
The restrictions contained in Section 302A.671 of the MBCA applicable to

(a) Each of Company and its Subsidiaries has in effect all Permits necessary
for it to own, lease or operate its properties and assets and to carry on its
business as now conducted, other than such Permits the absence of which would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect with
respect to Company or the Company Retained Business, and there has occurred no
default under any such Permit other than such defaults which, individually or in
the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Company
or the Company Retained Business. Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance

Effect with respect to Company or the Company Retained Business.

(ii) none of the Company SEC Documents contained at the time they were filed or
declared effective any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted at the

of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. At their
respective dates, the financial statements of Company included in the Company
SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable

Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Gaming Co. Business or (ii) prevent
or significantly delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. Except as disclosed in the Hilton SEC Documents filed and

Section 5.10. TAXES.

(a) Hilton and each of its Subsidiaries, and each affiliated group (within
the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code) of which Hilton or any of its
Subsidiaries is a member, has timely filed all federal income Tax Returns and
all other material Tax Returns required to be filed by it. All such Tax Returns
are complete and correct in all material respects. Hilton and each of its
Subsidiaries has paid (or Hilton has paid on its Subsidiaries' behalf) all Taxes
shown as due on such Tax Returns. The most recent consolidated financial
statements contained in the Hilton SEC Documents reflect an adequate reserve for
all Taxes payable by Hilton and its Subsidiaries for all taxable periods and
portions thereof through the date of such financial statements.

(b) None of Hilton or any of its Subsidiaries has taken or agreed to take
any action that would prevent (i) the Merger from constituting a reorganization
qualifying under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code or (ii) the
Hilton Distribution from constituting a tax-free transaction to Hilton and its
stockholders within the meaning of Section 355 of the Code.

Section 5.11. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS. Except as disclosed in the Hilton SEC
Documents filed and publicly available prior to the date hereof or as set forth
on the Hilton Disclosure Schedule or as would not have a Material Adverse Effect
with respect to Hilton, (i) all employee benefit plans or programs maintained
for the benefit of the current or former employees of Hilton or any Subsidiary
of Hilton in the Gaming Co. Business that are sponsored, maintained or
contributed to by Hilton or any Subsidiary of Hilton, or with respect to which
Hilton or any Subsidiary of Hilton has any liability, including any such plan
that is an "employee benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, are in
compliance in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law,
including ERISA and the Code, and (ii) neither Hilton nor any Subsidiary of
Hilton has any material liabilities or obligations with respect to any such
employee benefit plans or programs, whether accrued, contingent or otherwise,
except liabilities or obligations (x)

incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or (y)
which are fully funded or reserved for on the most recent financial statements
of Hilton included in the Hilton SEC Documents.

Section 5.12. BROKERS AND INTERMEDIARIES. No broker, investment banker,
financial advisor or other Person, other than ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Securities Corporation, the fees and expenses of which will be paid by Hilton or
Gaming Co., is entitled to any broker's, finder's, financial advisor's or other
similar fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Hilton or Gaming
Co.

Section 5.13. OPINION OF FINANCIAL ADVISOR. The financial advisor of
Hilton, Donaldson, Lufkin & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities Corporation, has delivered to
Hilton an opinion dated June 29, 1998 to the effect that the Hilton Distribution
and the consideration to be paid by Gaming Co. pursuant to this Agreement, after
giving effect to the Company Distribution, taken as a whole, are fair to the
stockholders of Hilton from a financial point of view.

Section 5.14. PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF GAMING CO.
BUSINESS. Attached hereto as Exhibit G is an unaudited pro forma consolidated
balance sheet of the Gaming Co. Business of Hilton and its Subsidiaries at
December 31, 1997 (including certain explanatory notes thereto, the "GAMING CO.
BUSINESS BALANCE SHEET") and an unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of
operations for the Gaming Co. Business of Hilton and its Subsidiaries for the
period ended December 31, 1997 (including certain explanatory notes thereto, the
"GAMING CO. BUSINESS INCOME STATEMENT" and together with the Gaming Co. Business
Balance Sheet, the "GAMING CO. BUSINESS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS"). The Gaming Co.
Business Financial Statements have been derived from Hilton's financial
statements, and prepared in accordance with the principles set forth in the
notes thereto. The Gaming Co. Business Financial Statements fairly present in
all material respects (on the basis indicated in the notes thereto) the
consolidated financial position of the Gaming Co. Business of Hilton and its
Subsidiaries at the date thereof, after giving pro forma effect to the Hilton
Distribution (assuming the Hilton Distribution occurred on December 31, 1997),
and the consolidated results of their operations for the one-year period then
ended, after giving pro forma effect to the Hilton Distribution (assuming the
Hilton Distribution occurred on January 1, 1997). At the Effective Time, except
as contemplated by this Agreement or the Hilton Distribution Agreement, neither
Hilton nor any of its Subsidiaries will own or have rights to use any of the
assets or properties whether tangible, intangible or mixed, which are necessary
for the conduct of the Gaming Co. Business as conducted on the date hereof or be
a party to any material agreement or arrangement with the Surviving Corporation
or any of its Subsidiaries, other than as described in the Transaction
Documents.

included in the Hilton SEC Documents filed and publicly available prior to the
date of this Agreement, from January 1, 1995 through the date of this Agreement,
and only with respect to the Gaming Co. Business, there have been no
transactions, agreements, arrangements or understandings between Hilton or its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Hilton's affiliates or other Persons, on the
other hand, that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation
S-K under the Securities Act.

Section 5.16. OWNERSHIP OF MERGER SUB: NO PRIOR ACTIVITIES; ASSETS OF
MERGER SUB. Merger Sub was formed by Gaming Co. solely for the purposes of
engaging in the transactions contemplated hereby. All of the capital stock of
Merger Sub is directly owned by Gaming Co. Except for this Agreement and the
Hilton Distribution Agreement, there are no outstanding or authorized options,
warrants, calls, rights, commitments or any other agreements to which Merger Sub
is a party, or by which it is bound, requiring it to issue, transfer, sell,
purchase, redeem or acquire any shares of capital stock or any securities or
rights convertible into, exchangeable for, or evidencing the right to subscribe
for or acquire, any shares of capital stock of Merger Sub. Except for
obligations or liabilities incurred in connection with its incorporation or
organization and except for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the Hilton Distribution Agreement, Merger Sub has not incurred, directly or
indirectly through any Subsidiary or Affiliate, any

obligations or liabilities, and has not engaged in any business or activities or
entered into any arrangements with any Person.

Section 5.17. PROHIBITED PAYMENTS. Hilton has not entered into any
understanding, agreement or arrangement, written or oral, under or pursuant to
which bribes, kickbacks, illegal rebates, payoffs or other forms of illegal
payments have been or will be made, provided or suffered.

Merger and the Hilton Distribution not to be completed, and Hilton shall
promptly notify Company of, and furnish Company any information it may
reasonably request with respect to, any event or condition or the existence of
any fact that could reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to
Company's obligation to consummate the Merger and the Company Distribution not
to be completed.

Section 7.7. ANNOUNCEMENTS. Prior to the Closing, none of the parties
hereto shall issue any press release or make any public announcement with
respect to this Agreement and the Merger without the prior consent of the other
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by
Applicable Laws or applicable stock exchange regulations, in which event the
party required to make the release shall, if possible, allow the other party
reasonable time to comment on such release in advance of such issuance. The
parties hereto agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in a form heretofore agreed to by
the parties hereto.

Section 7.8. NO SOLICITATION.

(a) Company shall not, and shall not permit or cause any of its Subsidiaries
or any of the officers and directors of it or its Subsidiaries to, and shall
direct its and its Subsidiaries' employees, agents and representatives
(including any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any
of its Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, or
otherwise encourage any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer with
respect to a merger, reorganization, share exchange, tender offer, consolidation
or similar transaction involving, or any purchase of, 15% or more of the assets
or any equity securities of Company or any of its Subsidiaries (any such
proposal or offer being hereinafter referred to as an "ACQUISITION PROPOSAL").
Company shall not, and shall not permit or cause any of its Subsidiaries or any
of the officers and directors of it or its Subsidiaries to, and shall direct its
and its Subsidiaries' employees, agents and representatives (including any
investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of its
Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, engage in any negotiations
concerning, or provide any confidential information or data to, or have any
discussions with, any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal, whether made
before or after the date of this Agreement, or otherwise facilitate any effort
or

attempt to make or implement or consummate an Acquisition Proposal; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Company or its
Board of Directors from (i) complying with Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the
Exchange Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal or (ii) at any time after
180 days from the date hereof if the Merger shall not by such date have received
the Company Shareholder Approval: (x) providing information in response to a
request therefor by a Person who has made an unsolicited bona fide written
Acquisition Proposal if the Board of Directors receives from the Person so
requesting such information an executed confidentiality agreement on terms
substantially equivalent to those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement;
(y) engaging in any negotiations or discussions with any Person who has made an
unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal; or (z) recommending such an
Acquisition Proposal to the shareholders of Company, if, and only to the extent
that, (i) in each such case referred to in clause (x), (y) or (z) above, the
Board of Directors of Company determines in good faith after consultation with
outside legal counsel that such action is necessary in order for its directors
to comply with their respective fiduciary duties under applicable law and (ii)
in each case referred to in clause (y) or (z) above, the Board of Directors of
Company determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor)
that such Acquisition Proposal, if accepted, is reasonably likely to be
consummated, taking into account all legal, financial and regulatory aspects of
the proposal and the Person making the proposal, and would, if consummated,
result in a more favorable transaction than the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement, taking into account the long-term prospects and interests of Company
and its shareholders. Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated
any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted
heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. Company agrees that it will
take the necessary steps to promptly inform the individuals or entities referred
to in the first sentence hereof of the obligations undertaken in this Section
7.8 and in the Confidentiality Agreement. Company also shall promptly request
each Person that has heretofore executed a confidentiality agreement in
connection with its consideration of an Acquisition Proposal to return all
confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of
it or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) Company shall notify Hilton immediately if any Acquisition Proposal or
inquiries regarding a potential Acquisition Proposal are received by, any
information with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or a potential Acquisition
Proposal is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations with respect to
an Acquisition Proposal or a potential Acquisition Proposal are sought to be
initiated or continued with, it or any of its representatives indicating, in
connection with such notice, the name of the Person involved and the material
terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, and thereafter shall keep
Hilton informed, on a current basis, on the status and terms of any such
inquiries or Acquisition Proposals and the status of any such negotiations or
discussions. Nothing in this Section 7.8(b), however, shall be construed as
authorizing Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective employees, agents or
representatives to engage in any activities prohibited by Section 7.8(a) hereof.

Section 7.9. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) All indemnification obligations existing as of the date hereof
(including indemnification obligations relating to or arising out of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement) relating to acts or omissions
occurring at or prior to the Effective Time in favor of the current or former
directors or officers of Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the "INDEMNIFIED
PERSONS") in the articles of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable
organizational documents) or indemnity contracts of Company or its Subsidiaries
(i) will be assumed by each of the Surviving Corporation and Lakes, each of whom
shall be jointly and severally liable for such indemnification, without further
action, as of the Effective Time and (ii) shall continue in full force and
effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period not less than six
years from the Effective Time. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
nothing in the preceding sentence modifies or in any way limits Company's
ability or rights to seek indemnification from Lakes pursuant to Section 7.9(b)
with respect to any of the foregoing obligations. If the Surviving Corporation
is required to indemnify any Indemnified Person for any act or omission relating
to any of the Non-Mississippi Group

Liabilities (as defined in the Company Distribution Agreement), including those
relating to (A) Stratosphere, the Stratosphere Litigation and/or the
Stratosphere Contracts or (B) the Lakes Business, including the Lakes Contracts
and/or any member of the Lakes Group, then as a condition to such
indemnification, such Indemnified Person shall enter into a subrogation
agreement pursuant to which the Surviving Corporation shall be subrogated to,
and shall stand in the place of, such Indemnified Person as to any events or
circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Person may have any right or
claim relating to such Non-Mississippi Group Liabilities against any claimant or
plaintiff asserting such liabilities against the Indemnified Person, or against
any other party (other than an Indemnified Person) that may be liable.

(b) Lakes shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Surviving
Corporation and its Affiliates from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
damages and expenses (including the reasonable costs and expenses of
investigation and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses in connection with any
or all such investigations or any and all Actions or threatened Actions)
incurred or suffered by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates
relating to the Non-Mississippi Group Liabilities, including those relating to
(A) the Stratosphere, the Stratosphere Litigation and/or the Stratosphere
Contracts and (B) the Lakes Business, including the Lakes Contracts and/or any
member of the Lakes Group.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, Lakes and Company shall enter into the
Trust Agreement in the form of Exhibit M attached hereto (the "TRUST AGREEMENT")
and the Pledge and Security Agreement in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto
(the "PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT," and together with the Trust Agreement, the
"SECURITY AGREEMENTS"), in each case, with such changes thereto as the trustee
thereunder may reasonably request, pursuant to which Lakes shall deposit and
make available the amounts set forth in such Security Agreements for the time
periods specified therein to secure and satisfy any and all indemnification
claims made or asserted against it pursuant to any of the Transaction Documents.

(d) For so long as the Surviving Corporation is required to provide
indemnification to any of the Indemnified Persons, Lakes shall not, and shall
not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any
Restricted Payment. If Lakes is unable, within 15 days of request, to pay in
full any claim made for indemnification by the Surviving Corporation or any of
its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or the Company Distribution Agreement,
then for so long as any such claim or any other claim for indemnification made
by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates remains unpaid, Lakes
shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or
indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guaranty or otherwise become directly
or indirectly liable with respect to any indebtedness.

(e) For so long as the Surviving Corporation is required to provide
indemnification to any Indemnified Person, Gaming Co.'s ability to transfer any
material Mississippi Group Assets (as defined in the Company Distribution
Agreement) out of the Surviving Corporation shall be limited as follows. In
connection with the transfer of any material Mississippi Group Asset out of the
Surviving Corporation, Gaming Co. shall determine the net equity value of such
asset at the time of such transfer (i.e., the fair market value of such asset
less any indebtedness and known liabilities relating thereto). So long as the
net equity value of the asset being transferred, together with the aggregate net
equity values of all assets previously transferred, is equal to or less than the
total indebtedness of Company as of the Determination Date under the Indentures
and the Revolving Credit Facility (collectively, the "THRESHOLD DEBT"), the
subject asset can be transferred without restriction. If, however, the net
equity value of the asset being transferred, together with the aggregate net
equity values of all assets previously transferred, is more than the Threshold
Debt (such excess being referred to as the "REQUIRED CREDIT SUPPORT"), then
Gaming Co. shall either (i) contribute to the Surviving Corporation assets with
a net equity value at least equal to the Required Credit Support or (ii)
guaranty the indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Persons in an amount
at least equal to the Required Credit Support. Once Gaming Co. is required to
provide any Required Credit Support, it shall only be entitled to transfer
additional material Mississippi Group Assets out of the Surviving Corporation if
it concurrently with such transfer either (x) contributes to the Surviving
Corporation other assets with a net equity value at least equal to the net
equity value of the assets to be

transferred out of the Surviving Corporation or (ii) guarantees the
indemnification obligations of the Surviving Corporation to the Indemnified
Persons in an amount at least equal to the net equity value of the assets to be
transferred out of the Surviving Corporation.

(f) The provisions of this Section 7.9 are intended to be for the benefit
of, and shall be enforceable by, the Surviving Corporation and each Indemnified
Person (including such Person's heirs and representatives) and shall be binding
on all successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation, Gaming Co. and
Lakes.

Section 7.10. DISTRIBUTIONS. (a) Prior to the Closing, Hilton will, and
will cause each of its Subsidiaries that is a party thereto, to enter into the
Hilton Distribution Agreement and such ancillary agreements (the "HILTON
ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS") as are reasonably required to effect the Hilton
Distribution and to govern the relationships between Hilton and Gaming Co.
following the Hilton Distribution. The Hilton Distribution Agreement and the
Hilton Ancillary Agreements will conform in all material respects to the terms
of the subject forms attached hereto as Exhibit A, with such changes thereto as
Hilton and Gaming Co. deem reasonably necessary and appropriate, provided that
such changes are not materially adverse to the interests of either Gaming Co.,
Company or Lakes. Hilton shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all
action necessary to effect the Hilton Distribution prior to the Effective Time,
pursuant to the terms of the Hilton Distribution Agreement and the Hilton
Ancillary Agreements. Prior to the Effective Time and subject to the second
preceding sentence, Hilton will not agree to or permit any material modification
of the terms of the Hilton Distribution Agreement or the Hilton Ancillary
Agreements that relate to the Gaming Co. Business without the prior written
consent of Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(b) Prior to the Closing, Company will, and will cause each of its
Subsidiaries that is a party thereto, to enter into the Company Distribution
Agreement and such ancillary agreements (the "COMPANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS," and
together with the Hilton Ancillary Agreements, the "ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS") as
are reasonably required to effect the Company Distribution and to govern the
relationships between Company and Lakes following the Company Distribution. The
Company Distribution Agreement and the Company Ancillary Agreements will conform
in all material respects to the terms of the subject forms attached hereto as
Exhibit B, with such changes thereto as Company and Lakes deem reasonably
necessary and appropriate, provided that such changes are not materially adverse
to the interests of either Company, Hilton or Gaming Co. Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to take all action necessary to effect the Company
Distribution prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms of the Company
Distribution Agreement and the Company Ancillary Agreements. Prior to the
Effective Time and subject to the second preceding sentence, Company will not
agree to or permit any material modification of the terms of the Company
Distribution Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements without the prior
written consent of Hilton, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 7.11. PRIVATE LETTER RULING AND TAX OPINIONS. Each of Hilton and
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts and cooperate with the other party
and to obtain from the Service or tax counsel, as the case may be, the Private
Letter Rulings or tax opinions, as the case may be, contemplated by Section
8.1(d) and 8.1(e) of this Agreement. Each party hereto shall also use its
reasonable best efforts to cause (a) the Merger to qualify as a reorganization
under the provisions of Sections 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code, (b) the Hilton
Distribution to qualify as a tax-free transaction to Hilton and its stockholders
within the meaning of Section 355 of the Code and (c) the Company Distribution
to qualify as a tax-free transaction, solely with respect to Company's
shareholders, within the meaning of Section 355 of the Code. Company
acknowledges, however, that (i) the Private Letter Ruling requested by Hilton
will also seek rulings with respect to the tax-free nature of certain other
transactions in which Hilton intends to engage after the Hilton Distribution
(the "OTHER TRANSACTIONS") and (ii) Hilton will also be entitled to seek a
Private Letter Ruling that covers (and assumes the consummation of) such Other
Transactions in the Private Letter Ruling referred to above.

Section 7.12. NYSE LISTING. Gaming Co. shall use its reasonable efforts to
cause the shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be
approved for listing on the NYSE (or such other securities exchange or market
comprising the principal securities exchange on which the Gaming Co. Common
Stock is listed), subject to notice of official issuance, prior to the Effective
Time.

Section 7.13. AFFILIATE AGREEMENTS. Upon the execution of this Agreement,
Company will provide Hilton with a list of those Persons who are, in Company's
reasonable judgment, "affiliates" of Company within the meaning of Rule 145
(each such Person who is an "affiliate" of Company within the meaning of Rule
145 is referred to as an "AFFILIATE") promulgated under the Securities Act
("RULE 145"). Company shall provide Hilton such information and documents as
Hilton shall reasonably request for purposes of reviewing such list and shall
notify Hilton in writing regarding any change in the identity of its Affiliates
prior to the Closing Date. Company shall each use all reasonable efforts to
deliver or cause to be delivered to Hilton by July 31, 1998 (and in any case
prior to the Effective Time) from each of its Affiliate, an executed Affiliate
Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (an "AFFILIATE
AGREEMENT"). Gaming Co. may be entitled to place appropriate legends on the
certificates evidencing any Gaming Co. Common Stock to be received by such
Affiliates of Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and to issue
appropriate stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent for Gaming Co.
Common Stock, consistent with the terms of the Affiliate Agreements (PROVIDED
that such legends or stop transfer instructions shall be removed when such
shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock are generally transferable without any
restrictions imposed by Rule 145, upon the request of any shareholder that is
not then an Affiliate of Company).

Section 7.14. STOCK PLANS.

(a) At the Effective Time, each outstanding Company Stock Option under the
Company Stock Plans, whether vested or unvested, shall be deemed to constitute
an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under
such Company Stock Option the same number of shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock
as the holder of such Company Stock Option would have been entitled to receive
pursuant to the Merger had such holder exercised such option in full immediately
prior to the Effective Time (rounded to the nearest whole number), at a price
per share (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to (y) the aggregate
exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock purchasable pursuant to
such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (z)
the number of full shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock deemed purchasable pursuant
to such Company Stock Option in accordance with the foregoing, it being
acknowledged by Hilton that each such Company Stock Option will, to the extent
provided for in the applicable option or agreement, become fully vested at the
Effective Time as a result of the Merger.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, Gaming Co. shall deliver to the
participants in the Company Stock Plans appropriate notice setting forth such
participants' rights pursuant thereto and the grants pursuant to Company Stock
Plans shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the
adjustments required by this Section 7.14 after giving effect to the Merger).

(c) Gaming Co. shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for
issuance a sufficient number of shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock for delivery
under Company Stock Plans assumed in accordance with this Section 7.14. Promptly
after the Effective Time, Gaming Co. shall file a registration statement on Form
S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate forms), or another appropriate form
with respect to the shares of Gaming Co. Common Stock subject to such options
and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such
registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current
status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such
options remain outstanding.

(d) The Board of Directors of Company shall, prior to or as of the Effective
Time, take all necessary actions, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms
of the Company Stock Plans and the instruments evidencing the Company Stock
Options, to provide for the conversion of the Company Stock Options into

options to acquire Gaming Co. Common Stock in accordance with this Section 7.14;
and Company represents and warrants that no consent of the holders of the
Company Stock Options is required in connection with such conversion.

(e) The Board of Directors of Company shall, prior to or as of the Effective
Time, take appropriate action to approve the deemed cancellation of the Company
Stock Options for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The Board of
Directors of Gaming Co. shall, prior to or as of the Effective Time, take
appropriate action to approve the deemed grant of options to purchase Gaming Co.
Common Stock under the Company Stock Options (as converted pursuant to this
Section 7.14) for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

Section 7.15. INDIAN GAMING AND DEBT AGREEMENTS AND LAKES
AGREEMENTS. Subject to Lake's obligations to indemnify the Surviving
Corporation with respect to such obligations pursuant to Section 7.9 hereof and
Article V of the Company Distribution Agreement, the Surviving Corporation shall
comply with all of Company's obligations under any Indian Gaming and Debt
Agreements or Lakes Agreements to which it is a party or subject to and for
which it has not been released.

preparation, execution and filing of all returns, questionnaires, applications
or other documents regarding any real property transfer or gains, sales, use,
transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp taxes, any transfer, recording,
registration and other fees or any similar taxes which become payable in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that are
required or permitted to be filed on or before the Effective Time. Company shall
pay, without deduction or withholding from any amount payable to the holders of
Company Common Stock, any such taxes or fees imposed by any Governmental
Authority (and any penalties and interest with respect to such taxes and fees)
which become payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement on behalf of its shareholders.

Section 7.17. STOCKHOLDER OR SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION. Each of Hilton and

defense of any stockholder or shareholder litigation against Hilton or Company,
as applicable, and its directors relating to the transactions contemplated
hereby.

effect employee benefit plans and arrangements which provide benefits which have
a value which is substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the benefits
provided by the Employee Benefit Plans (not taking into account the value of any
benefits under any such plans which are equity based) for a period of one year
after the Effective Time.

(b) Gaming Co. shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor all
employment, severance and termination agreements (including change in control
provisions) of the employees of Company and its Subsidiaries in effect on the
date hereof; PROVIDED that (x) all such agreements are set forth or summarized
on the Company Disclosure Schedule, (y) such agreements will not be amended,
modified or extended after the date hereof without the written consent of Hilton
and (z) to the extent such agreement would unjustly or inequitably enrich such
employee, the foregoing commitment shall not apply to any Persons who become
employees of any member of the Lakes Group and shall instead become a commitment
of Lakes who shall honor any such agreement.

(c) For purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting,
including accrual or entitlement to benefits where length of service is relevant
under any employee benefit plan or arrangement of Gaming Co. or the Surviving
Corporation, employees of Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time
shall receive service credit for service with Company and any of its
Subsidiaries to the same extent such service was granted under the Employee
Benefit Plans.

Section 7.19. INDENTURES AND COMPANY NOTES. Gaming Co. shall cause the
Surviving Corporation to comply with any "Change of Control Offer" (as defined

indirectly engage in Restricted Activities in the following markets: (i) greater
Houston, Texas; (ii) greater Alexandria, Louisiana; (iii) greater Baton Rouge,

herein shall prevent the Surviving Corporation from directly mailing any

individuals or entitles that are included in the Surviving Corporation's patron
database; and PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that nothing herein shall prevent
Gaming Co. from marketing or advertising its casinos (or employing its related
databases) other than Mississippi Casinos in such markets.

is entered into, or the transactions constituting any such Acquisition
Proposal are consummated, within 18 months of such termination; PROVIDED,

If it is ever held that any covenant hereunder is too broad to permit

the maximum extent permitted by law, and each party hereby consents and agrees
that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly in any proceeding brought
to enforce such covenant.

hereof and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, each party hereto waives
any objection to the imposition of such relief.

appropriately modified to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the Hilton Distribution Agreement.

Section 10.12. APPROVALS, CONSENT AND WAIVERS. Any approval, consent or
waiver required or authorized by any provision of this Agreement to be given or
made by any of the parties hereto shall only be valid to the extent such

to Gaming Co. and/or the appropriate Gaming Subsidiaries designated by Gaming
Co. of all of Hilton's and its Subsidiaries' right, title and interest in any
Gaming Group Assets held, on or prior to the Distribution Date, by Hilton or any
Retained Business Subsidiary.

Section 2.02. TRANSFERS OF ASSETS FROM GAMING SUBSIDIARIES TO HILTON
OR RETAINED BUSINESS SUBSIDIARIES.

Prior to the Distribution Date, Gaming Co. shall take or cause to be
taken all actions necessary to cause the transfer, assignment, delivery and
conveyance to Hilton and/or the applicable Retained Business Subsidiaries
designated by Hilton of all of Gaming Co.'s and the Gaming Subsidiaries' right,
title and interest in any Retained Business Group Assets held, on or prior to
the Distribution Date, by Gaming Co. or any of the Gaming Subsidiaries.

Section 2.03. TRANSFERS NOT EFFECTED PRIOR TO THE DISTRIBUTION.

To the extent that any transfers contemplated by this Article II shall
not have been fully effected as of the Distribution Date, the parties shall
cooperate to effect such transfers as promptly as shall be practicable following
the Distribution Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the transfer
of any assets or the assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or
operation of law cannot be transferred or assumed including, without limitation,
pursuant to Gaming Laws; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Hilton and Gaming Co. and their
respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall cooperate in seeking to obtain any
necessary consents or approvals for the transfer of all assets and Liabilities
contemplated to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement including, without
limitation, pursuant to Gaming Laws. In the event that any such transfer of
assets or Liabilities has not been consummated effective as of the Distribution
Date, the party retaining such asset or Liability shall thereafter hold such
asset in trust for the use and benefit of the party entitled thereto (at the
expense of the party entitled thereto) and retain such Liability for the account
of the party by whom such Liability is to be assumed pursuant hereto, and take
such other actions as may be reasonably required in order to place the parties,
insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as would have existed had
such asset been transferred or such Liability been assumed as contemplated
hereby. As and when any such asset or Liability becomes transferable, such
transfer and assumption shall be effected forthwith. The parties agree that,
except as set forth in this Section 2.03, as of the Distribution Date, each
party hereto shall be deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial
ownership over all of the assets, together with all rights, powers and
privileges incidental thereto, and shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance

obligations and

responsibilities incidental thereto, which such party is entitled to acquire
or required to assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

In the case that at any time after the Distribution Date, Gaming Co.
reasonably determines that any of the Retained Business Group Assets (other than
the assets set forth in Schedule 6) are essential for the conduct of the Gaming
Business, or Hilton reasonably determines that any of the Gaming Group Assets
(other than the assets set forth in Schedule 3) are essential for the conduct of
the Retained Business, and the nature of such assets makes it impracticable for
Gaming Co. or Hilton, as the case may be, to obtain substitute assets or to make
alternative arrangements on commercially reasonable terms to conduct their
respective businesses, and reasonable provisions for the use thereof are not
already included in the Related Agreements, then Gaming Co. (with respect to the

Agreement Debt (the "RETAINED CREDIT AGREEMENT DEBT AMOUNT") equal to the amount
set forth in Schedule 9 PLUS the amount of option cash-outs attributable to
Retained Business Group employees, if any (which Debt shall constitute a part of
the Retained Debt). Gaming Co. will be responsible for refinancing the remainder
of the Credit Agreement Debt (which Debt shall constitute a part of the Assumed
Debt).

(e) In the event that the parties cannot fully and finally determine
the Retained Credit Agreement Debt Amount as of the Distribution Date, the
allocation of Debt as of such date shall be provisional (based on the best data
available as of such date) and the parties shall make an appropriate "true up"
adjustment as promptly as practicable after all facts necessary for a final
determination of the Retained Credit Agreement Debt Amount can be ascertained.

(f) Debt allocated to Gaming Co. in the Gaming Co. Intercompany Debt
Allocation Agreement will be assumed by Gaming Co. and/or the appropriate Gaming
Subsidiaries. The parties acknowledge that this agreement will approximately
equalize the Debt between Hilton and Gaming Co. as of December 31, 1998, giving
pro forma effect to the Distribution and the Merger assuming they had occurred
on December 31, 1998, and will allocate any Debt increases or decreases
subsequent to such date in accordance with Section 2.08(g); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if the Merger does not occur after the Distribution, the parties hereto
shall reallocate the Debt between Hilton and Gaming Co. to approximately
equalize it as of December 31, 1998, giving pro forma effect solely to the
Distribution assuming it had occurred on December 31, 1998, and allocating any
Debt increases or decreases subsequent to such date in accordance with Section
2.08(g).

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) any
increases (decreases) in Debt incurred (repaid) after December 31, 1998 arising
out of operations of the

Retained Business (regardless of whether the Distribution has occurred) shall
be attributed to Hilton and (ii) any increases (decreases) in Debt incurred
(repaid) after December 31, 1998 arising out of operations of the Gaming
Business (regardless of whether the Distribution has occurred) shall be
attributed to Gaming Co.; and, to the extent such increases (decreases) are
not already given effect in the definition of Net Cash and the allocations
thereof pursuant to Section 2.07(d), such increases (decreases) shall
increase or decrease (as applicable) the Debt allocated to Hilton or
GamingCo. (as applicable).

from and against any and all losses, Liabilities, damages and expenses
(including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, in connection with any such investigations,
Actions or threatened Actions) (collectively, "INDEMNIFIABLE LOSSES" and,
individually, an "INDEMNIFIABLE LOSS") incurred or suffered by any of the

suffered by any of the Hilton Indemnitees and arising out of or due to the
failure or alleged failure of Gaming Co., any Gaming Subsidiaries, or any of
their respective Affiliates to pay, perform or otherwise discharge in due
course any of the Gaming Group Liabilities.

Section 5.03. INSURANCE PROCEEDS.

The amount which any party (an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") is or may be
required to pay to or on behalf of any other Person (an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON")
pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 shall be reduced (including, without
limitation, retroactively) by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually
recovered by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person in reduction of the related
Indemnifiable Loss. If an Indemnified Person shall have received the payment
required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of an
Indemnifiable Loss and shall subsequently actually receive Insurance Proceeds,
or other amounts in respect of such Indemnifiable Loss as specified above, then
such Indemnified Person shall pay to such

Indemnifying Party a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or
other amounts actually received.

Section 5.04. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) Except as may be set forth in a Related Agreement, if an
Indemnified Person shall receive written notice of the assertion by a Person
(including, without limitation, any Governmental Authority) who is not a
party to this Agreement or to any of the Related Agreements of any claim or
of the commencement by any such Person of any Action with respect to which an
Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to
this Agreement (a "THIRD-PARTY CLAIM"), such Indemnified Person shall give
the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof promptly after becoming aware
of such Third-Party Claim; PROVIDED, that the failure of any Indemnified
Person to give notice as required by this Section 5.04 shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article V, except to the
extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure
to give notice. Such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in
reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated if necessary) of
the Indemnifiable Loss that has been claimed against or may be sustained by
such Indemnified Person.

(b) Within 15 days of the receipt of notice from an Indemnified
Person in accordance with Section 5.04(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such
Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the
Indemnified Person of its election whether to assume responsibility for such
Third-Party Claim (provided that if the Indemnifying Party does not so notify
the Indemnified Person of its election within 15 days after receipt of such
notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to
have elected not to assume responsibility for such Third-Party Claim). An
election not to assume responsibility for such Third-Party Claim may only be
made in the event of a good faith dispute that a Third-Party Claim is not
covered as an Indemnifiable Loss under the grounds specified in Section 5.01
or 5.02, as the case may be. Subject to Section 5.04(e) hereof, an
Indemnifying Party may elect to defend or to seek to settle or compromise, at
such Indemnifying Party's own expense and by counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the Indemnified Person, any Third-Party Claim, PROVIDED that (i) the
Indemnifying Party must confirm in writing that it agrees that the
Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification hereunder in respect of
such Third-Party Claim and (ii) no compromise or settlement shall be made
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume
responsibility for the Third-Party Claim, pursuant to Section 5.04(b) above,
(i) the Indemnified Person shall cooperate in the defense or settlement or
compromise of such Third-Party Claim, including making available to the
Indemnifying Party any personnel and any books, records or other documents
within the Indemnified Person's control or which it otherwise has the ability
to make available that are necessary or appropriate for the defense of the
Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified
Person reasonably informed regarding the strategy, status and progress of the
defense of the Third-Party Claim, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall
consider, in good faith, the opinions and suggestions of the Indemnified
Person with

respect the Third-Party Claim. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an
Indemnified Person of its election to assume responsibility for a Third-Party
Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person
under this Article V for any legal or other costs or expenses (except costs
or expenses approved in advance by the Indemnifying Party) subsequently
incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof;
PROVIDED, that if the defendants in any such claim include both the
Indemnifying Party and one or more Indemnified Persons and in such
Indemnified Persons' reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such
Indemnified Persons and such Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such
claim, such Indemnified Persons shall have the right to employ separate
counsel and in that event the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such
separate counsel (but not more than one separate counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party) shall be paid by such Indemnifying
Party.

(d) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility
for a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person may defend or (subject to the
following sentence) seek to compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Person may not settle or
compromise any claim without prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party,
which shall have the option within ten days following the receipt of such
notice (i) to disapprove the settlement and to then assume all past and
future responsibility for the claim, including immediately reimbursing the
Indemnified Person for prior expenditures in connection with the claim, (ii)
to disapprove the settlement and continue to refrain from participation in
the defense of the claim, in which event the Indemnified Person may, in its
sole discretion, proceed with the settlement and the Indemnifying Party shall
have no further right to contest the amount or reasonableness of the
settlement, (iii) to approve and pay the amount of the settlement, reserving
the Indemnifying Party's right to contest the Indemnified Person's right to
indemnity, or (iv) to approve and pay the settlement. In the event the
Indemnifying Party makes no response to such written notice, the Indemnifying
Party shall be deemed to have elected option (ii). When the Indemnifying
Party chooses, or is deemed to have chosen, option (ii) or (iii), the issue
of whether the Indemnified Person has a right to indemnity under this Article
V shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.14
hereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not prevail at such arbitration, the
Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Person for all
Indemnifiable Losses, plus interest on such amounts at the lower of (i) 10 %
or (ii) the highest legal interest rate, accruing from the date of payment by
the Indemnified Person.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person
reasonably and in good faith determines that (i) the Indemnifying Party is
not financially capable to defend a Third-Party Claim and to provide full
indemnification with respect to any settlement thereof or (ii) the
Indemnifying Party or such Indemnifying Party's attorney is not adequately
representing the Indemnified Person's interests with respect to such
Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying
Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such
Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible for,
and be bound by the resolution of, such Third-Party Claim.

(f) Any claim on account of an Indemnifiable Loss which does not
result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by
the Indemnified Person to

the applicable Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a
period of 15 days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond
thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 15-day
period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept
responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond
within such 15-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such
Indemnified Person shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available
to such party under applicable law or under this Agreement.

(g) In addition to any adjustments required pursuant to Section
5.03, if the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss shall, at any time subsequent
to the payment required by this Agreement, be reduced by recovery, settlement
or otherwise, the amount of such reduction, less any expenses incurred in
connection therewith, shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Person to
the Indemnifying Party.

(h) In the event of payment by an Indemnifying Party to any
Indemnified Person in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such
Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of
such Indemnified Person as to any events or circumstances in respect of which
such Indemnified Person may have any right or claim relating to such
Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such
Third-Party Claim or against any other party that may be liable. Such
Indemnified Person shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a
reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in
prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

Section 5.05. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

The remedies provided in this Article V shall be cumulative and
shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnified Person of any other rights or
the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

Section 5.06. SURVIVAL OF INDEMNITIES.

The obligations of each of Gaming Co. and Hilton under this Article
V shall survive the sale or other transfer by it of any assets or businesses
or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, with respect to any Indemnifiable
Loss of the other related to such assets, businesses or Liabilities.

Information has been (i) in the public domain through no fault of such party or
(ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such party), and each party
shall not release or disclose such Information to any other person, except its
auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, rating agencies, bankers and other
consultants and advisors, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or

requirements of law, or unless such Information is reasonably required to be
disclosed in connection with (x) any litigation with any third-parties or

contractual agreement to which members of the Retained Business

Group or the Gaming Group are currently parties, or (z) in exercise of either
party's rights hereunder.

Section 7.07. PRIVILEGED MATTERS.

Gaming Co. and Hilton recognize that certain legal and other
professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the
Distribution Date have been and will be rendered for the benefit of both the
Retained Business Group and the Gaming Group and that both the Retained Business
Group and the Gaming Group should be deemed to be the client for the purposes of
asserting all Privileges. To allocate the interests of each party in the
Privileged Information, the parties agree as follows:

(a) Hilton shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion
or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which
relates solely to the Retained Business Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Hilton or Gaming Co.
Hilton shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver
of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information that relates solely
to the subject matter of any claims constituting Retained Business Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Hilton or a Retained Business
Subsidiary, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or
under the control of Hilton or Gaming Co.

(b) Gaming Co. shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the
assertion or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information
which relates solely to the Gaming Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Hilton or Gaming Co.
Gaming Co. shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or
waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which relates
solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Gaming Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Gaming Co. or a Gaming Subsidiary,
whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or under the
control of Hilton or Gaming Co.

(c) Gaming Co. and Hilton agree that they shall have a shared
Privilege, with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in
this Section 7.07, with respect to all Privileges not allocated pursuant to the
terms of Sections 7.07(a) and (b). All Privileges relating to any claims,
proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve both Gaming
Co. and Hilton, or in respect of which both Gaming Co. and Hilton retain any
responsibility or liability under this Agreement, shall be subject to a shared
Privilege.

(d) No party may waive any Privilege which could be asserted under
any applicable law, and in which the other party has a shared Privilege, without
the consent of the other party, except to the extent reasonably required in
connection with any litigation with third-parties or as provided in subsection
(e) below. Consent shall be in writing, or shall be deemed to be granted unless
written objection is made within twenty (20) days after written notice upon the
other party requesting such consent.

(e) In the event of any litigation or dispute between a member of
the Retained Business Group and a member of the Gaming Group, either party
may waive a Privilege in which the other party has a shared Privilege,
without obtaining the consent of the other party, provided that such waiver
of a shared Privilege shall be effective only as to the use of Information
with respect to the litigation or dispute between the Retained Business Group
and the Gaming Group, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared
Privilege with respect to third-parties.

(f) If a dispute arises between the parties regarding whether a
Privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of either
party, each party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall
endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other party, and
shall not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the
other party. Each party specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent
to waiver for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(g) Upon receipt by any party of any subpoena, discovery or other
request which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Information
subject to a shared Privilege or as to which the other party has the sole
right hereunder to assert a Privilege, or if any party obtains knowledge that
any of its current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have
received any subpoena, discovery or other requests which arguably calls for
the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, such party shall
promptly notify the other party of the existence of the request and shall
provide the other party a reasonable opportunity to review the Information
and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 7.07 or otherwise to
prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(h) The transfer of the Gaming Group Books and Records and the
Retained Business Group Books and Records and other Information between
Hilton and its Subsidiaries and Gaming Co. and its Subsidiaries is made in
reliance on the agreement of Gaming Co. and Hilton, as set forth in Sections
7.06 and 7.07, to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and
to assert and maintain all applicable Privileges. The access to Information
being granted pursuant to Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, the agreement to
provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof and the
transfer of Privileged Information between Hilton and its Subsidiaries and
Gaming Co. and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement shall not be
deemed a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this
Agreement or otherwise.

(a) GENERAL. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article III, but
subject to any contrary provisions of any Related Agreement, from and after the
Distribution Date:

(i) Hilton shall be responsible for the Insurance
Administration of the Shared Policies; PROVIDED, that the
administration of the Shared Policies by Hilton is in no way intended

whether at the request of the party entitled to payment or upon demand
by Hilton or a Retained Business Subsidiary, Hilton or a Retained

relating to the same occurrence, Gaming Co. and Hilton agree to jointly defend
and to waive any conflict of interest necessary to the conduct of that joint

Section 2.01. TRANSFER OF ASSETS TO LAKES. Prior to the Distribution
Date, Company shall take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to cause the
transfer, assignment, delivery and conveyance to Lakes and/or the appropriate
Non-Mississippi Subsidiaries designated by Lakes of all of Company's and its
Subsidiaries' right, title and interest in any Non-Mississippi Group

Assets held, on or prior to the Distribution Date, by Company or any
Mississippi Subsidiary including:

(a) a contribution to Lakes of all of the outstanding capital stock
of the Non-Mississippi Subsidiaries indicated on Schedule 2;

(b) subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, transfer of $33
million dollars of cash by Company or any Mississippi Subsidiary to Lakes in
order to provide necessary and needed levels of working capital and appropriate
reserve for business investment purposes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that;

(i) such amount will be DECREASED by any amount paid by the
Company prior to the Distribution Date in connection with Stratosphere up
to a maximum of $8 million, and

(ii) such amount shall be INCREASED by the Assigned Lakes
Assets Proceeds.

(c) transfer of the Assigned Lakes Assets, as indicated on Schedule

Schedule 7;

Section 2.02. TRANSFERS OF ASSETS FROM NON-MISSISSIPPI SUBSIDIARIES TO
COMPANY OR MISSISSIPPI SUBSIDIARIES. Prior to the Distribution Date, Lakes
shall take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to cause the transfer,
assignment, delivery and conveyance to Company and/or the applicable Mississippi
Subsidiaries designated by Company of all of Lakes's and the Non-Mississippi
Subsidiaries' right, title and interest in any Mississippi Group Assets held, on
or prior to the Distribution Date, by Lakes or any of the Non-Mississippi
Subsidiaries, if any.

Section 2.03. TRANSFERS NOT EFFECTED PRIOR TO THE DISTRIBUTION. To the
extent that any transfers contemplated by this Article II shall not have been
fully effected as of the Distribution Date, the parties shall cooperate to
effect such transfers as promptly as shall be practicable following the
Distribution Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the transfer of
any assets or the assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or
operation of law cannot be transferred or assumed including, without limitation,
pursuant to Gaming Laws; provided, however, that Company and Lakes and their
respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall cooperate in seeking to obtain any
necessary consents or approvals for the transfer of all assets and Liabilities
contemplated to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement including, without
limitation, pursuant to Gaming Laws.

In the event that any such transfer of assets or Liabilities has not been
consummated effective as of the Distribution Date, the party retaining such
asset or Liability shall thereafter hold such asset in trust for the use and
benefit of the party entitled thereto (at the expense of the party entitled
thereto) and retain such Liability for the account of the party by whom such
Liability is to be assumed pursuant hereto, and take such other actions as may
be reasonably required in order to place the parties, insofar as reasonably
possible, in the same position as would have existed had such asset been
transferred or such Liability been assumed as contemplated hereby. As and when
any such asset or Liability becomes transferable, such transfer and assumption
shall be effected forthwith. The parties agree that, except as set forth in
this Section 2.03, as of the Distribution Date, each party hereto shall be
deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the
assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incidental thereto, and
shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities
incidental thereto, which such party is entitled to acquire or required to
assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.04. COOPERATION RE: ASSETS. In the case that at any time after
the Distribution Date, Lakes reasonably determines that any of the Mississippi
Group Assets (other than the assets set forth in Schedule 3) are essential for
the conduct of the Non-Mississippi Business, or Company reasonably determines
that any of the Non-Mississippi Group Assets (other than the assets set forth in
Schedule 5) are essential for the conduct of the Mississippi Business, and the
nature of such assets makes it impracticable for Lakes or Company, as the case
may be, to obtain substitute assets or to make alternative arrangements on
commercially reasonable terms to conduct their respective businesses, and
reasonable provisions for the use thereof are not already included in the
Related Agreements, then Lakes (with respect to the Non-Mississippi Group
Assets) and Company (with respect to the Mississippi Group Assets) shall
cooperate to make such assets available to the other party on commercially
reasonable terms, as may be reasonably required for such party to maintain
normal business operations. However, (a) the usage of such assets by the other
party shall not materially interfere with the use of such assets by the party
holding such assets; and (b) such assets shall be required to be made available
only until such time as the other party can reasonably obtain substitute assets
or make alternative arrangements on commercially reasonable terms to permit it
to maintain normal business operations.

Section 2.05. NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES; CONSENTS. Each of the
parties hereto understands and agrees that no party hereto is, in this
Agreement, in any Related Agreement, or otherwise, representing or warranting in
any way (a) as to the value or freedom from encumbrance of, or any other matter
concerning, any assets of such party; or (b) as to the legal sufficiency to
convey title to any asset transferred pursuant to this Agreement or any Related
Agreement. IT IS ALSO AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF ANY OF THE ASSETS
EITHER TRANSFERRED TO OR RETAINED BY THE PARTIES, AS THE CASE MAY BE,AND ALL
SUCH ASSETS SHALL BE "AS IS, WHERE IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS"; provided, however,
that the absence of warranties shall have no effect upon the allocation of
Liabilities under this Agreement.

Each party hereto understands and agrees that no party hereto is, in this
Agreement, in any Related Agreement or otherwise, representing or warranting in
any way that the obtaining of any consents or approvals, the execution and
delivery of any amendatory agreements and the making of any filings or
applications contemplated by this Agreement, any Related Agreement or otherwise
will satisfy the provisions of any or all applicable laws or judgments or other
instruments or agreements relating to such assets, including without limitation,
the Gaming Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall use their
good faith efforts to obtain all consents and approvals, including, without
limitation, pursuant to the Gaming Laws, to enter into all reasonable amendatory
agreements and to make all filings and applications which may be reasonably
required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and the Related Agreements, and shall take all such further reasonable actions
as shall be necessary to preserve for each of the Non-Mississippi Group and the
Mississippi Group, to the greatest extent feasible, the economic and operational
benefits of the allocation of assets and liabilities provided for in this
Agreement. In case at any time after the Distribution Date any further action
is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the
proper officers and directors of each party to this Agreement shall take all
such necessary or desirable action.

Section 2.06. CONVEYANCING AND ASSUMPTION INSTRUMENTS. In connection with
the Preliminary Transfers described in Article II and Article III hereof, and

as the parties shall reasonably agree. The transfer of capital stock and other

applicable law, by notation on public registries.

the foregoing (the "LAKES INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all losses,
Liabilities, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees in connection with any
such investigations, Actions, or threatened Actions) (collectively,
"INDEMNIFIABLE LOSSES" and, individually, an "INDEMNIFIABLE LOSS") incurred or
suffered by any of the Lakes Indemnitees and arising out of or due to the
failure or alleged failure of Company, any Mississippi Subsidiary, or any of
their respective Affiliates to (a) pay, perform or otherwise discharge in due
course any of the Mississippi Group Liabilities, or (b) comply with the
provisions of Section 6.04 hereof.

and hold harmless Company and each of the Mississippi Subsidiaries, and each of
their respective past or

present directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates and each of the

Section 5.03. INSURANCE PROCEEDS. The amount which any party (an
"INDEMNIFYING PARTY") is or may be required to pay to any other Person (an
"INDEMNIFIED PERSON") pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 shall be reduced
(including, without limitation, retroactively) by any Insurance Proceeds or
other amounts actually recovered by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person in
reduction of the related Indemnifiable Loss. If an Indemnified Person shall
have received the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party
in respect of an Indemnifiable Loss and shall subsequently actually receive
Insurance Proceeds, or other amounts in respect of such Indemnifiable Loss as
specified above, then such Indemnified Person shall pay to such Indemnifying
Party a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts
actually received.

Section 5.04. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) If an Indemnified Person shall receive written notice of the
assertion by a Person (including, without limitation, any Governmental
Authority) who is not a party to this Agreement or to any of the Related
Agreements of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action
with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (a "THIRD-PARTY CLAIM"), such
Indemnified Person shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof
promptly after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim; PROVIDED, that the
failure of any Indemnified Person to give notice as required by this Section
5.04 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this
Article V, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Such notice shall describe the
Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated
if necessary) of the Indemnifiable Loss that has been claimed against or may be
sustained by such Indemnified Person.

5.02, as the case may be. Subject to Section 5.04(e) hereof, an Indemnifying
Party may elect to defend or to seek to settle or compromise, at such
Indemnifying Party's own expense and by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Person, any Third-Party Claim, PROVIDED that (i) the Indemnifying
Party must confirm in writing that it agrees that the Indemnified Person is
entitled to indemnification hereunder in respect of such Third-Party Claim; and
(ii) no compromise or settlement shall be made without the prior written consent
of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be reasonably withheld.

(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume
responsibility for the Third-Party Claim, pursuant to Section 5.04(b) above,
(i) the Indemnified Person shall cooperate in the defense or settlement or
compromise of such Third-Party Claim, including making available to the
Indemnifying Party any personnel and any books, records or other documents
within the Indemnified Person's control or which it otherwise has the ability
to make available that are necessary or appropriate for the defense of the
Third-Party Claim; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified
Person reasonably informed regarding the strategy, status and progress of the
defense of the Third-Party claim; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall
consider, in good faith, the opinions and suggestions of the Indemnified
Person with respect to the Third-Party Claim.

After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Person
of its election to assume responsibility for a Third-Party Claim, such
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person under this
Article V for any legal or other costs or expenses (except costs or expenses
approved in advance by the Indemnifying Party) subsequently incurred by such
Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, that if the
defendants in any such claim include both the Indemnifying Party and one or more
Indemnified Persons and in such Indemnified Persons' reasonable judgment a
conflict of interest between such Indemnified Persons and such Indemnifying
Party exists in respect of such claim, such Indemnified Persons shall have the
right to employ separate counsel and in that event the reasonable fees and
expenses of such separate counsel (but not more than one separate counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party) shall be paid by such
Indemnifying Party.

(d) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for
a Third-Party Claim the Indemnified Person may defend or (subject to the
following sentence) seek to compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Person may not settle or
compromise any claim without prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party,
which shall have the option within ten days following the receipt of such notice
(i) to disapprove the settlement, and to then assume all past and future
responsibility for the claim, including immediately reimbursing the Indemnified
Person for prior expenditures in connection with the claim; (ii) to disapprove
the settlement and continue to refrain from participation in the defense of the
claim, in which event the Indemnified Person may, in its sole discretion,
proceed with the settlement and the Indemnifying Party shall have no further
right to contest the amount or reasonableness of the settlement; (iii) to
approve and pay the amount of the settlement, reserving the Indemnifying Party's
right to contest the Indemnified Person's right to indemnity;

or (iv) to approve and pay the settlement. In the event the Indemnifying
Party makes no response to such written notice, the Indemnifying Party shall
be deemed to have elected option (ii). When the Indemnifying Party chooses
or is deemed to have chosen option (ii) or (iii), the issue of whether the
Indemnified Person has a right to indemnity under this Article V shall be
resolved by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.14 hereof.
If the Indemnifying Party does not prevail at such arbitration, the
Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Person for all
Indemnifiable Losses, plus interest on such amounts at the lower of (i) 10%
or (ii) the highest legal interest rate, accruing from the date of payment by
the Indemnified Person.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person
reasonably and in good faith determines that (i) the Indemnifying Party is not
financially capable to defend a Third-Party Claim and to provide full
indemnification with respect to any settlement thereof or (ii) the Indemnifying
Party or such Indemnifying Party's attorney is not adequately representing the
Indemnified Person's interests with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the
Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the
exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim and the
Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible for, and be bound by the resolution
of, such Third-Party Claim.

(f) Any claim on account of an Indemnifiable Loss which does not
result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the
Indemnified Person to the applicable Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying
Party shall have a period of 15 days after the receipt of such notice within
which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within
such 15-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to
accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not
respond within such 15-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part,
such Indemnified Person shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be
available to such party under applicable law or under this Agreement.

(g) In addition to any adjustments required pursuant to Section 5.03,
if the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss shall, at any time subsequent to the
payment required by this Agreement, be reduced by recovery, settlement or
otherwise, the amount of such reduction, less any expenses incurred in
connection therewith, shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Person to the
Indemnifying Party.

(h) In the event of payment by an Indemnifying Party to any
Indemnified Person in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying
Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnified
Person as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified
Person may have any right or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against
any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other
party that may be liable. Such Indemnified Person shall cooperate with such
Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such
Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

(i) For so long as Surviving Corporation (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) is required to provide indemnification to any of the Indemnified
Persons (as defined in the Merger Agreement), Lakes shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted
Payment. If Lakes is unable, within 15 days of request, to repay in full any
claim made for indemnification by Company or any of its Affiliates pursuant to
this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, then for so long as any such claim or
any other claim for indemnification made by Company or any of its Affiliates
remains unpaid, Lakes shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guaranty or otherwise
become directly or indirectly liable with respect to any indebtedness.

(j) Prior to the Distribution Date, Company and Lakes shall enter
into a Collateral Trust Agreement and a Pledge and Security Agreement. Company
is hereby entitled to all the rights and benefits under those agreements in
order to secure Lakes' indemnification obligations under this Agreement, the
Related Agreements and the Merger Agreement.

Section 5.05. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The remedies provided in this Article
V shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnified Person
of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any
Indemnifying Party.

Section 5.06. SURVIVAL OF INDEMNITIES. The obligations of each of Lakes
and Company under this Article V shall survive the sale or other transfer by it
of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, with
respect to any Indemnifiable Loss of the other related to such assets,
businesses or Liabilities.

the client for the purposes of asserting all Privileges. To allocate the
interests of each party in the Privileged Information, the parties agree as
follows:

(a) Company shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the
assertion or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information
which relates solely to the Mississippi Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Company or Lakes.
Company shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or
waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information that relates
solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Mississippi Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Company or a Mississippi
Subsidiary, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or
under the control of Company or Lakes.

(b) Lakes shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion
or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which
relates solely to the Non-Mississippi Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Company or Lakes.
Lakes shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver
of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which relates solely
to the subject matter of any claims constituting Non-Mississippi Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Lakes or a Non-Mississippi
Subsidiary, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or
under the control of Company or Lakes.

(c) Lakes and Company agree that they shall have a shared Privilege,
with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in this Section
7.07, with respect to all Privileges not allocated pursuant to the terms of
Sections 7.07(a) and (b). All Privileges relating to any claims, proceedings,
litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve both Lakes and Company, or
in respect of which both Lakes and Company retain any responsibility or
liability under this Agreement, shall be subject to a shared Privilege.

be granted unless written objection is made within twenty (20) days after
written notice upon the other party requesting such consent.

(e) In the event of any litigation or dispute between a member of the
Mississippi Group and a member of the Non-Mississippi Group, either party may
waive a Privilege in which the other party has a shared Privilege, without
obtaining the consent of the other party, provided that such waiver of a shared
Privilege shall be effective only as to the use of Information with respect to
the litigation or dispute between the Mississippi Group and the Non-Mississippi
Group, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared Privilege with respect to
third-parties.

(f) If a dispute arises between the parties regarding whether a
Privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of either party,
each party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to
minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other party, and shall not
unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other party.
Each party specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent to waiver for
any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(g) Upon receipt by any party of any subpoena, discovery or other
request which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Information
subject to a shared Privilege or as to which the other party has the sole right
hereunder to assert a Privilege, or if any party obtains knowledge that any of
its current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any
subpoena, discovery or other requests which arguably calls for the production or
disclosure of such Privileged Information, such party shall promptly notify the
other party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other party a
reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may
have under this Section 7.07 or otherwise to prevent the production or
disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(h) The transfer of the Non-Mississippi Group Books and Records and
the Mississippi Group Books and Records and other Information between Company
and its Subsidiaries and Lakes and its Subsidiaries is made in reliance on the
agreement of Lakes and Company, as set forth in Sections 7.06 and 7.07, to
maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and
maintain all applicable Privileges. The access to Information being granted
pursuant to Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, the agreement to provide witnesses
and individuals pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof and the transfer of Privileged
Information between Company and its Subsidiaries and Lakes and its Subsidiaries
pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that
has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants,
undertakings and obligations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the

Trustee hereunder, except that:

(1) Such cash shall be invested and reinvested by the

directed in writing by the Indemnitee's Agent and if the
Indemnitee's Agent states in such writing that an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) after the

Claim with respect to any underlying state of facts. If Representative gives
notice to the Indemnitee's Agent and the Trustee disputing any Claim (a
"COUNTER NOTICE") within 15 days following its receipt of the Notice, such
Claim shall be resolved as provided in Section 5(b). Lakes must have a
reasonable basis in giving any such Counter Notice and shall set forth in
reasonable detail the basis of its objection to the Claim in the Counter
Notice. If no

Counter Notice is received by the Trustee within such 15-day period, then (i)
the dollar amount of the Claim, as set forth in the Notice, shall be deemed
established for purposes of this Agreement and the agreement(s) under which
the Claim arose and (ii) at the end of such 15-day period, the Trustee shall
pay to Company the dollar amount claimed in the Notice from the Trust Estate;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, to the extent that the Trust Estate does not contain
sufficient funds to pay the Claim (after the liquidation of the assets
comprising the Trust Estate), such Claim shall be paid by Trustee to the
extent of such funds and the remaining portion of the Claim shall be paid by
Trustee, with no further notice to or consent required by the Representative,
as soon as further deposits are made by Lakes into the Trust Estate.

(b) If a Counter Notice is received with respect to a Claim,
the parties (other than the Trustee) shall promptly meet and confer and
attempt in good faith to resolve the objection. If they succeed, the parties
(other than the Trustee) shall promptly and jointly notify the Trustee in
writing and the Trustee shall act in accordance with such joint written
notice. If the parties shall not succeed within 5 business days of Company's
receipt of the Counter Notice, they shall, within an additional 10 business
days, commence and thereafter promptly complete an arbitration proceeding in
accordance with the provisions of Section 21 hereof. Thereafter, unless the
parties shall otherwise jointly instruct the Trustee in writing, the Trustee
shall make payment with respect to the Claim, if any, in accordance with the
arbitrator's award when received.

(c) The Trustee (i) shall not be obligated to give any notice
under any of the foregoing provisions in this Section 5 and (ii) shall not be
entitled to object to any Notice given under any such provisions.

6. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

(a) This Agreement shall terminate on the date after (i)
Company determines that all known material Indemnification Obligations with

and the Tax Liabilities have been completely settled (and with respect to any
settlement subject to court approval, such settlement shall have become final
and non-appealable) and satisfied, (ii) Company determines that no additional
material Indemnification Obligations are reasonably likely to arise out of,
or be asserted with respect to, the Polo Plaza Project Liabilities or the
Stratosphere Liabilities and (iii) Company and Lakes determine that no
material Indemnification Obligations are likely to arise out of, or be
asserted with respect to, any material Tax Liabilities (such date of
termination, the "TERMINATION DATE"). As promptly as practical after the

payment of (A) any and all taxes owing with respect to the Trust Estate, if

Estate to Lakes.

action which would violate any applicable law, regulation, judgment, order or
decree or expose it to liability for which it has not received indemnification
from Company pursuant to Section 11 hereof.

(including counsel chosen by the Trustee), statement, instrument, report or
other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and

any information therein contained) which is believed by the Trustee to be
genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person(s). The Trustee

warranty whatsoever, and shall have no liability whatsoever, to Company or its

of the Trust Estate or as to any other matter whatsoever, except only that the

right, power and authority, and all required licenses and consents, to execute,
deliver and perform its duties under this Agreement and the Pledge and Security
Agreement, and (ii) this Agreement and the Pledge and Security Agreement have

herein or therein) are binding upon and legally enforceable against it, subject

of equitable principles, whether considered in a court of law or equity.

discharge or otherwise effect the Trust Estate or any property comprising part
of the Trust Estate or any beneficial interest therein or the rights, powers and
liens created by or arising under this Agreement and the Pledge and Security
Agreement. Such resignation shall take effect when a successor Trustee has been
appointed by Company and has accepted the trusts herein provided. If a
successor Trustee does not take office

within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns, the retiring Trustee may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

(g) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of
its appointment to Lakes, the retiring Trustee and to Company. Thereupon, the
resignation of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this
Agreement and all of the rights, powers and liens granted to the Trustee under
the Pledge and Security Agreement. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer
all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee provided all sums
owing to the retiring Trustee have been paid.

Agreement, unless first indemnified and held harmless to its satisfaction in
accordance with the foregoing, except that the Trustee shall not be indemnified
against any loss, liability or expense arising out of its bad faith, gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Such indemnity shall survive the termination
or discharge of this Agreement or resignation of the Trustee.

INTEREST AND DISTRIBUTIONS

ARTICLE VI.
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.1. REMEDIES. Upon and at any time after the occurrence of
any Event of Default, and from time to time on each occasion when an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Secured Party may exercise and enforce
each and all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party upon
default under the UCC or other applicable law.

(a) Secured Party may cause any or all instruments or investment
securities, if any, constituting part of the Trust Estate to be transferred into
Secured Party's name and exercise and enforce any or all of the rights,
interests, privileges and remedies of a holder against the issuer thereof, as
freely and fully as if Secured Party were the absolute owner but as a secured
party and as part of the Trust Estate.

(b) Secured Party may sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the
Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels and from time to time in
any quantity or portion and on any number of occasions, at a public sale or in a
private sale or transaction, on any exchange or market or at Secured Party's
offices or at any other location, for cash, on credit or for future delivery,
and may enter into all contracts necessary or appropriate in connection
therewith, without any notice whatsoever unless required by law.

(c) Debtor agrees that at least 10 calendar days' written notice to
Debtor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any
private sale is to be made shall be commercially reasonable. The giving of
notice of any such sale or other disposition shall not obligate Secured Party to
proceed with the sale or disposition, and any such sale or disposition may be
postponed or adjourned from time to time, without further notice.

Section 6.2. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Secured Party may exercise and
enforce each right and remedy available to it upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default either before or concurrently with or after, and independently of, any
exercise or enforcement of any other right or remedy of Secured Party or any

such rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and no one of them shall exclude
or preclude any other.

or other disposition of Collateral by Secured Party remaining after all the
Secured Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full and discharged shall be paid
over to Debtor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus
or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, except that if any
contingent, unliquidated or unmatured Secured Obligation then remains
outstanding, such surplus proceeds may be retained by Secured Party and held as
Collateral until such time as all outstanding Secured Obligations have been
determined, liquidated and indefeasibly paid in full and discharged. Debtor
shall be and remain liable for any deficiency.

Section 6.4. NO RECOURSE TO TRUSTEE. As to Trustee only (without in
any way affecting Secured Party's rights as to Debtor), upon and Event of
Default, Secured Party shall look solely to the Collateral, and not to Trustee's
other assets or property, for relief and Secured Party shall have no recourse to
any of Trustee's other assets or property.

ARTICLE VII.

promise, representation or warranty whatsoever, and shall have no liability

all holders of Secured Obligations if it is authorized in the Trust Agreement.

officer, employee, attorney or agent of Secured Party shall be obligated to care
for the Collateral hereunder or to collect, enforce, vote, or protect the

or enforce any rights which Debtor or any other Person may have against any
third party, except only that Secured Party shall exercise reasonable care in
physically safekeeping any item of Collateral that was delivered into Secured
Party's possession. Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised such
reasonable care if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to
that which Secured Party accords to its own property or if it selects, with
reasonable care, a custodian or agent to hold such Collateral for Secured
Party's account.
