----------------------
maintain the Collateral in good operating condition, working order and repair,
ordinary wear and tear excepted, and from time to time will make or cause to be

SECTION 7.3. Restriction on Licensing Intellectual Property. No
----------------------------------------------
Grantor shall license the Intellectual Property or any portion thereof, or amend
or permit the amendment of any of the Licenses, in either case in a manner that

permitted under the Indenture, in any manner adverse to the interests of the
Trustee in the Intellectual Property without the prior written consent of the
Trustee.
SECTION 7.4. Use of Intellectual Property Prior to Event of Default.
------------------------------------------------------
Subject to Section 7.3 but notwithstanding any other provision herein to the

each Grantor will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license,
sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the
Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of such Grantor.
In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing the Trustee shall, from time to time upon the request of the
Grantors, execute and deliver to the Grantors any instruments, certificates or
other documents, in the form so requested, which the Grantors shall have

----
have no duty as to the collection of any Collateral in its possession or control
or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Trustee, or any
income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining thereto. The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to
that which the Trustee, in its individual capacity, accords its own property, it
being understood that the Trustee shall not have responsibility for taking any
necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any
Collateral.
SECTION 10. Remedies Upon Event of Default.
------------------------------
SECTION 10.1. Notice to Obligors and Contract Parties. At any time
---------------------------------------
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Trustee may, and, if requested by the Trustee, the Grantors shall, notify
parties to the Contracts and account debtors in respect of any General
Intangibles or Accounts constituting Collateral that such Collateral has been
assigned to the Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Holders and that payments
in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Trustee.
SECTION 10.2. Proceeds to be Turned Over to Trustee. If an Event of
-------------------------------------
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all amounts and proceeds
(including instruments) received by any Grantor in respect of any Collateral
shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders,
segregated from other funds of such
19
Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to
the Trustee in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such
Grantor to the Trustee, if required or requested) and held by the Trustee in the
Collateral Account, which shall be maintained under the sole dominion and
control of the Trustee. All Proceeds while held by the Trustee in the
Collateral Account (or by any Grantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders)
shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and
shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 11.
----------
SECTION 10.3. Obtaining Possession of the Collateral. If an Event of
--------------------------------------
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, in addition to any other action
permitted by law (and not limited in any manner to the remedies contained in the
Securities and the Indenture) take one or more of the following actions:
(a) personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take
possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from any Grantor or any
other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without
notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Grantor's
premises where any of the Collateral is located and remove such Collateral
and use in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies,
aids and other facilities of any Grantor;
(b) sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Grantor to
sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any or all investments made in whole
or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of
the proceeds of any such sale, assignment or liquidation; and
(c) take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by
directing any Grantor in writing to deliver the same to the Trustee at any
place or places which the Trustee shall reasonably select, in which event
such Grantor shall at its own expense; (x) forthwith cause the same to be
moved to the place or places so designated by the Trustee and there
delivered to the Trustee; (y) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to
the Trustee at such place or places pending further action by the Trustee
and (z) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such
guards and maintenance services as shall be reasonably necessary to protect
the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. The Grantors'
obligation to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement.
Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Trustee
shall, to the extent permitted by law, be entitled to a decree requiring
specific performance by any Grantor of such obligation.
SECTION 10.4. Use and Preservation of the Collateral. Upon and during
--------------------------------------
the existence of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion,
use or manage the Collateral to preserve the Collateral or its value, or to pay
the Obligations which includes, without limitation, the right to take possession
of any Grantor's premises and property, to exclude any Grantor and any third
parties (whether or not claiming under such Grantor) from such premises and
property, to make repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and
20
improvements to or take any acts to preserving the Collateral, and to dispose of
all or any portion of the Collateral.
SECTION 10.5. Remedies Under UCC. In addition to the rights and
------------------
remedies provided in this Agreement or otherwise available to it, the Trustee
shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or under
the Uniform Commercial Code of any other relevant jurisdiction.
SECTION 10.6. Additional Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the
-------------------
continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee, without demand of performance
or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind
(except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Grantors or
any other person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and
notices are, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give
option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the
Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one
or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's
board or office of the Trustee or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as
the Trustee may deem advisable and at such prices as it may elect, for cash or
on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The
Trustee or any Holder shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law, upon
any such public sale or sales or upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase for cash the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold (but any such
purchase may not, in whole or in part, be in the form of cancellation of
indebtedness without the consent of each Holder). Each Grantor further agrees,
at the Trustee's request, to assemble the Collateral of such Grantor and make it
available to the Trustee at places which the Trustee shall reasonably select,
whether at such Grantor's premises or elsewhere. The Trustee shall apply the net
proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Agreement, after deducting
all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred by the Trustee in
connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the
Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Trustee
and the Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees and disbursements, as provided in Section 11 hereof, and only after such
----------
application and after the payment by the Trustee of any other amount required by
any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the
UCC, need the Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantors. To the
extent permitted by law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it
may acquire against the Trustee (or any other trustee under the Deed of Trust)
or any Holder arising out of the exercise by any of them of any rights
hereunder. If any notice of proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral
shall be required by law, such notice shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
disposition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be obligated
to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.
The Trustee may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private
sale, or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the
time and place fixed for sale or, with respect to a private sale, after which
such sale may take place, and any such sale may, without further notice, be made
at the time and place to which it was adjourned or, with respect to a private
sale, after which such sale may take
21
place. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold free from
any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives,
to the full extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or
appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under
any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. To the extent
permitted by law, each Grantor also hereby waives any claims against the Trustee
arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have
been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale, even if the Trustee accepts the first offer received
and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. In case any sale
of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery,
the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Trustee until the sale price is
paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, and the Trustee shall not incur any
liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay
for the Collateral purchased. In case of any such failure, such Collateral may
be sold again upon like notice. The parties hereto agree that the notice
provisions, method, manner and terms of any sale, transfer or disposition of any
Collateral in compliance with the terms set forth herein or any other provision
of this Agreement are commercially reasonable.
SECTION 10.7. Certain Sales of Collateral. Each Grantor recognizes
---------------------------
that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or
orders of any Governmental Authority, the Trustee may be compelled, with
respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to
those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Grantor
acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to
the Trustee than those obtainable through a public sale without such
restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such
restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable
manner.
SECTION 10.8. Certain Remedies in Respect of Intellectual Property. If
----------------------------------------------------
an Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing, in addition to
the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it,
the Trustee may license or sublicense (whether general, special or otherwise,
and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis) all or any portion of the
Intellectual Property throughout the world for such term or terms, on such
conditions and in such manner as the Trustee shall determine. Upon request by
the Trustee, the Grantors shall execute and deliver to the Trustee any powers of
attorney, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, for the
implementation of any assignment, license, sublicense, grant of option, sale or
other disposition of any Intellectual Property. In the event of any sale,
assignment, or other disposition of any of the Intellectual Property, the
goodwill and general intangibles connected with and symbolized by the
Intellectual Property subject to such disposition shall be included, and the
Grantors shall supply to the Trustee or its designee, for inclusion in such
sale, assignment or other disposition, all Intellectual Property relating to
such Intellectual Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision
hereof, the provisions of this Security Agreement, including this Section 10.8
are subject to the License Agreement, dated as of July 29, 1997, between Casino
America, Inc. and the Company, and the use and enjoyment by the Trustee of the
license rights thereunder shall be subject to the limitations contained therein.

-------------------
rights and remedies hereunder, the Trustee shall have the right to institute a
proceeding seeking specific performance in connection with any of the agreements
or obligations hereunder.
SECTION 10.10. Receivership. Upon and during the continuance of a
------------
Default or an Event of Default, the Trustee may, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, have a court having jurisdiction appoint a receiver, which receiver
shall take charge and possession of and protect, preserve, replace and repair
the Collateral or any part thereof, and manage and operate the same, and receive
and collect all rents, income, receipts, royalties, revenues, issues and profits
therefrom. Except to the extent prohibited by law, each Grantor shall
irrevocably consent and shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably consented to
the appointment thereof, and upon such appointment, such Grantor shall
immediately deliver possession of such Collateral to the receiver. Except to the
extent prohibited by law, each Grantor also irrevocably consents to the entry of
an order authorizing such receiver to invest interest upon any funds held or
received by the receiver in connection with such receivership. The Trustee shall
be entitled to such appointment as a matter of right, if it shall so elect,
without the giving of notice to any party and without regard to the adequacy of
the security of the Collateral.
SECTION 11. Application of Proceeds. All cash proceeds received by the
-----------------------
Trustee upon any sale of, collection of, or other realization upon, all or any
part of the Collateral shall be applied as follows:
First: To the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
-----
incurred by the Trustee in connection with the sale of, collection of or
other realization upon Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements and court costs, if applicable;
Second: To the payment of the Obligations in such manner
------
consistent with applicable laws and the Indenture as the Trustee in its
discretion shall decide; and
Third: To the extent of the balance (if any) of such proceeds, to
-----
payment to the Grantors or other Person legally entitled thereto.
Non-cash proceeds of any disposition by the Trustee of Collateral
available to satisfy the Obligations shall be applied to the Obligations in such
order and in such manner consistent with applicable law and the Indenture as the
Trustee in its discretion shall decide.
SECTION 12. Expenses. The Grantors will immediately upon demand pay to
--------
the Trustee the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the fees
and expenses of the Trustee's counsel and the fees and expenses of any experts
and agents which the Trustee may incur in connection with (a) the collection of
the Obligations, (b) the enforcement and administration of this Agreement, (c)
the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Collateral, (d) the exercise or enforcement of any
of the rights of the Trustee or any Secured Party hereunder, (e) the
23
failure by the Grantors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof, (f)
the preparation and filing or recording of financing statements and other
documents (including all taxes in connection therewith) in public offices
necessary or desirable to create and maintain first priority perfected security
interests in the Collateral in favor of the Trustee, (g) the payment or
discharge of any taxes, insurance premiums required or permitted under any
Collateral Document or encumbrances with respect to the Collateral, (h)
defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or related to
the transactions to which this Agreement relates (other than actions by any
Grantor for breach of the Indenture or any Collateral Documents determined by a

otherwise protecting, maintaining or preserving the Collateral and the
perfection and priority of the security interests granted or purported to be
granted hereunder, or the enforcing, foreclosing, retaking, holding, storing,
processing, selling or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral and the Trustee's

All amounts payable by the Grantors under this Section shall be due upon demand
and shall be part of the Obligations. The Grantors' obligations under this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the
Grantors' other obligations hereunder.
SECTION 13. Amendments in Writing: No Waiver. Cumulative Remedies:
------------------------------------------------------
Reinstatement: Additional Grantors.
----------------------------------
SECTION 13.1. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of Article 9 of
----------
the Indenture, none of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived,
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, except by a written instrument
executed by the Grantors (except as otherwise provided in Section 13.4) and the
------------
Trustee; provided that any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on
--------
any Grantor may be waived by the Trustee in a written instrument executed solely
by the Trustee.
SECTION 13.2. No Waiver: Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent
------------------------------
permitted by law, (a) no failure on the part of the Trustee to exercise, no
course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Trustee in
exercising, any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof or constitute an acquiescence to any default or Event of Default;
nor (b) shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege
or remedy hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy. A waiver by the Trustee or any
Holder of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Trustee or such Holder would
otherwise have on any future occasion. To the maximum extent permitted by law,
the remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law.
SECTION 13.3. Reinstatement. In the event the Trustee shall have
-------------
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this
Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall
have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case, each Grantor, the Trustee
and each Holder shall be restored to their respective former positions and
rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and
24
powers of the Trustee and the Secured Parties shall continue as if no such
proceeding had been institued.
SECTION 13.4. Additional Grantors. If either Grantor shall acquire or
-------------------
create a Sudsidiary after the date of this Agreement, then such newly acquired
or created Sudsidiary shall (i) become a party to this Security Agreement by
executing and delivering to the Trustee an Amendment to Security Agreement
(Additional Grantor) and (ii) shall enter into such documents as shall be
necessary in the Trustee's opinion to create a perfected, first priority
security interest in the capital stock and all property of such Sudsidiary
(including, without limitation, any real property and all personal property of
such Sudsidiary) and the proceeds and products thereof. Upon the execution and
delivery to the Trustee by any Person of an Amendment to Security Agreement
(Additional Grantor) in substantially the form of Annex I hereto (each, an
"Amendment to Security Agreement (Additional Grantor)"), which Amendment to
Security Agreement (Additional Grantor) need not be executed by the Grantors,
and the acceptance thereof by the Trustee, such Person shall be and become a
Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement to the "Grantor" shall
include such Person and each reference in the Indenture, the Securities and any
other Collateral Document to the "Grantor" shall include such Person.
SECTION 14. Appointment as the Trustee. The actions of the Trustee
--------------------------
hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Indenture. The Trustee shall have
the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain
from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action
(including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), in
accordance with this Agreement and the Indenture. The Trustee may resign and a
successor Trustee may be appointed in the manner provided in the Indenture. Upon
the acceptance of any appointment as the Trustee by a successor Trustee, that
successor Trustee shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Trustee under this
Agreement, and the retiring Trustee shall thereupon be discharged from its
duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Trustee's
resignation, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was
the Trustee.
SECTION 15. The Trustee Appointed Attorney-in-Fact; the Trustee May
-------------------------------------------------------
Perform.
-------
SECTION 15.1. The Trustee Appointed as Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor
-----------------------------------------
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Trustee and any officer or agent
thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-
fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such
Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of
carrying out the terms of this Agreement to take any and all appropriate action
and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Trustee and any
officer or agent of the Trustee the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor,
without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:
25
(a) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take
possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or
other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Contract or with
respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or
proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the
Trustee for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any
Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;
(b) in the case of any Copyright, Patent or Trademark, execute and
deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Trustee
may request to evidence the Trustee's security interest in such Copyright,
Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor
relating thereto or represented thereby;
(c) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened
against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the
terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the
costs thereof;
(d) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Sections
--------
10.3, 10.4 or 10.5 or any other sale of Collateral pursuant to this Agreement,
---- ---- ----
any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer
with respect to the Collateral; and
(e) (i) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the
Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder
directly to the Trustee or as the Trustee shall direct; (ii) ask or demand for,
collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and
other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of
any Collateral; (iii) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills,
bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors,
assignments, verfications, notices and other documents in connection with any of
the Collateral; (iv) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at
law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the
Collateral or any thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any
Collateral; (v) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such
Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (vi) settle, compromise or adjust any
such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, to give such
discharges or releases as the Trustee may deem appropriate; (vii) generally,
sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal
with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Trustee were
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Trustee's option and
the Grantors' expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things
which the Trustee deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the
Collateral and the Trustee's and the Holders' security interests therein and to
effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the
applicable Grantor might do.
26
The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with
an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is
terminated and the security interests created hereby are released. Each Grantor
hereby ratifies all that such attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue and in accordance with the terms hereof. Anything in this Section to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee agrees that it will not exercise any
rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section unless an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
SECTION 15.2. The Trustee May Perform. If any Grantor shall fail to
-----------------------
do any act or thing that it has covenanted to do hereunder or under the
Indenture or if any representation or warranty on the part of such Grantor
contained herein or under the Indenture shall be breached, the Trustee or any
Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to), after providing such Grantor
with at least five Business Days' notice, do the same or cause it to be done or
remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose. Any and all
amounts so expended by the Trustee or such Secured Party shall be paid by such
Grantor promptly upon demand therefor, with interest at the Default Rate during
the period from and including the date on which such funds were so expended to
the date of repayment. The Grantors' obligations under this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the Grantors'
other obligations under this Agreement.
SECTION 15.3. Duty of the Trustee. The Trustee's sole duty with
-------------------
respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral
in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC, Section 9 hereof or
---------
otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Trustee deals with
similar property for itsown account. Neither the Trustee, any Holder nor any of
their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for
failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any
delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose
of any Collateral upon the request of the Grantors or any other person or to
take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part
thereof. The powers conferred on the Trustee and the Holders hereunder are
solely to protect the Trustee's and the Holders' interests in the Collateral and
shall not impose any duty upon the Trustee or any Holder to exercise any such
powers. The Trustee and the Holders shall be accountable only for amounts that
they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither
they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
responsible to the Grantors for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for
their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except for the safe custody of
any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received
by it hereunder, the Trustee shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to
ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges,
maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not
the Trustee has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the
taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining to any reasonable care in the custody and preservation
of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment
substantially equal to that which the Trustee accords its own property. Except
as provided in this Section, the Trustee shall not have any duty or liability to
protect or preserve any Collateral or to preserve rights pertaining thereto.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring or
obligating the Trustee or the Holders, and neither the Trustee
27
nor the Holders shall be required or obligated, to (a) present or file any claim
or notice or take any action, with respect to any Collateral or in connection
therewith or (b) notify the Grantors of any decline in the value of any
Collateral.
SECTION 15.4 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to Section
---------------------------------
9-402(2)(e) of the UCC, the Grantors authorize the Trustee (subject to the last
sentence of Section 5.2) to file financing statements and continuation
-----------
statements with respect to the Collateral without the signature of the Grantors
in such form and in such filing offices as the Trustee reasonably determines
appropriate to perfect, and maintain perfected, the security interests of the
Trustee under this Agreement. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of
this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any
jurisdiction.
SECTION 15.5. Authority of the Trustee. The Grantors acknowledge that
------------------------
the rights and responsibilities of the Grantors under this Agreement with
respect to any action taken by the Trustee or the exercise or non-exercise by
the Trustee of any option, voting right, request, judgement or other right or
remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall,
as between the Trustee and the Holders, be governed by the Indenture and by such
other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them,
but, as between the Trustee and the Grantors, the Trustee shall be conclusively
presumed to be acting as agent for the Holders with full and valid authority so
to act or refrain from acting, and the Grantors shall be under no obligation, or
entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. The Trustee may
exercise its rights under this Agreement through an agent or other designee.
SECTION 16. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
-------
communication shall be given in the manner set forth in Section 13.02 of the
Indenture and shall be given or delivered at the following respective addresses
and facsimile and telephone numbers and to the attention of the following
individuals or departments: (i) if to any Grantor, at its address specified
pursuant to the Indenture , (ii) if to the Trustee, at its address specified
pursuant to the Indenture or, (iii) as to any such party, at such other address
or, facismile or telephone number or to the attention of such other individual
or department as the party to which such information pertains may hereafter
specify for the purpose in a notice to the other specifically captioned "Notice
of Change of Address".
SECTION 17. Continuing Security Interest: Assignment. This
----------------------------------------
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and
shall (a) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and (b)
inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Trustee hereunder, to the
benefit of the Trustee (and, to the extent provided herein, any other trustee
under the Deed of Trust) and the other Secured Parties and each of their
respective successors, transferees and assigns; and no other Persons (including,
without limitation, any other creditors of any Grantor) shall have any interest
herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing clause (b), any Secured Party may assign or
otherwise transfer any security or guarantee held by it secured by this
Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become
vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party,
herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Indenture.
28
SECTION 18. Release of Collateral. Reference is hereby made to
---------------------
Article 10 of the Indenture for provisions which discuss the release of the
Collateral from the Liens created by this Agreement.
SECTION 19. Termination. When all Obligations have been indefeasibly
-----------
paid in full, this Agreement shall terminate (except as to those provisions
which it is provided herein shall survive such termination) and the Trustee
shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against
receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any
remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or to the order
of the Grantors and to be released and canceled all licenses and rights referred
to in Section 7.4 hereof; provided, however, that any licenses or sublicenses
----------- -------- -------
granted by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.8 shall continue to be in full
------------
force and effect in accordance with their terms. The Trustee shall also execute
and deliver to the Grantors upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code
termination statements such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested
by the Grantors to effect the termination and release of the security interests
in the Collateral.
SECTION 20. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
-------------
SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW) WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THEREOF,
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE SECURITY
INTERESTS HEREUNDER ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.
SECTION 21. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this
--------------------------
Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
SECTION 22. Interaction with Indenture.
--------------------------
(a) Incorporation by Reference. All terms, covenants, conditions,
--------------------------
provisions and requirements of the Indenture are incorporated by reference
in this Security Agreement.
(b) Conflicts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Security
---------
Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be
subject and subordinate to the terms of the Indenture. To the extent that
the Indenture provides the Trustors with a particular cure or notice
period, or establishes any limitations or conditions on the Trustee's
actions with regard to a particular set of facts, the Trustors shall be
entitled to the same cure periods and notice periods, and the Trustee shall
be subject to the same limitations and conditions, under this Security
Agreement, as under the Indenture, in place of the cure periods, notice
periods, limitations and
29
conditions provided for under this Security Agreement; provided, however,
-------- -------
that such cure periods, notice periods, limitations and conditions shall
not be cumulative as between the Indenture and this Security Agreement. In
the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this
Security Agreement and those of the Indenture, including, without
limitation, any conflicts or inconsistencies in any definitions herein or
therein, the provisions or definitions of the Indenture shall govern.
SECTION 23. Other Security. To the extent that the Obligations are
--------------
now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral or by the
guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Trustee shall
have the right in its sole discretion to pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify
or take any other action with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or
affecting any of the Trustee's or any Holder's rights and remedies hereunder.
SECTION 24. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any
-------------------------
amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
SECTION 25. Headings. The Section and subsection headings used in
--------
this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the
construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
SECTION 26. Obligations Absolute. All obligations of the Grantors
--------------------
hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:
(a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Grantor;
(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture, the
Completion Capital Commitment, the Securities, any other Collateral
Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or
waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indenture, the
Completion Capital Commitment, the Securities, and other Collateral
Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (except to
the extent specified in such change, amendment or waiver);
(d) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other
collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any
departure from any guarantees, for all or any of the Obligations;
30
(e) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy,
power or privilege under or in respect of this Agreement, the Indenture,
the Completion Capital Commitment, the Securities, any other Collateral
Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, except as
specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of
the Indenture;
(f) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to
all or any of the Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition
of any collateral for all or any of the Obligations or any other
obligations of any Grantor under the Indenture, the Securities or any other
Collateral Document or any other assets of any Grantor or any of its
Subsidiaries;
(g) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of any Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries;
(h) any failure of the Trustee or any Secured Party to disclose to
any Grantor any information relating to the business, condition (financial
or otherwise), operations, properties or prospects of any other Grantor now
or in the future known to the Trustee or any other Secured Party (the
Grantors hereby waiving any duty on the part of the Trustee and any other
Secured Party to disclose such information); or
(i) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any
statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any
representation by the Trustee or any other Secured Party that might
otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor
or any guarantor or surety.
SECTION 27. Waiver of Marshaling. Each Grantor for itself and for all
--------------------
Persons hereafter claiming through or under it or who may at any time hereafter
become holders of liens junior to the liens granted under this Agreement, hereby
expressly waives and releases all rights to direct the order in which any of the
Collateral shall be sold in the event of any sale or sales pursuant hereto and
to have any of the Collateral and/or any other property now or hereafter
constituting security for any of the obligations secured hereunder marshaled
upon the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or any other agreement
granting security for the obligations secured hereunder.
SECTION 28. Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall
-------------------------
be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not
permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an
exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall
not avoid the occurrence of a default if such action is taken or condition
exists.
SECTION 29. Savings Clause. It is the intention of the parties to
--------------
conform strictly to the usury laws, whether state or federal, that are
applicable to the transaction of which this Agreement is a part. All agreements
between the Grantors and the Trustee, whether now existing or hereafter arising
and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no
contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be
31
paid by the Grantors for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be
loaned or advanced under the Indenture, the Securities, the Completion Capital
Commitment, this Agreement, any other Collateral Document, or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto, or for the payment or performance of
any covenant or obligation contained herein or therein, exceed the maximum
amount permissible under applicable federal or state usury laws. If under any
circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any such provision, at the time
performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of
validity prescribed by law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced
to the limit of such validity. If under any circumstances the Grantors shall
have paid an amount deemed interest by applicable law, which would exceed the
highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest under
applicable usury laws shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount
owing in respect of the Obligations and not to the payment of interest, or if
such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal and any other
amounts due hereunder, the excess shall be refunded to the Grantors. All sums
paid or agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal
under any extension of credit or advancement of funds by the Trustee or any
Holder, shall, to the extent permitted by law, and to the extent necessary to
preclude exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated and spread from the date of this Agreement until payment in
full of the Obligations so that the actual rate of interest on account of such
principal amounts is uniform throughout the term hereof.
SECTION 30. Certain Waivers by the Grantors. Each Grantor waives (a)
-------------------------------
any claim that, as to any part of the Collateral, a public sale, should the
Trustee elect so to proceed, is, in and of itself, not a commercially reasonable
method of sale for such Collateral, (b) except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable laws, notice or
judicial hearing in connection with the Trustee's disposition of any of the
Collateral including any and all prior notice and hearing for any pre-judgment
remedy or remedies and any such right that such Grantor would otherwise have
under the Constitution or any statute of the United States or of any state, and
all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other
requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Trustee's rights hereunder,
(c) all rights of redemption, appraisal or valuation, and (d) all rights and
defenses arising out of an election of remedies by any Secured Party, even
though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect
to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed such Grantor's rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against the principal.
SECTION 31. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE TRUSTEE AND THE GRANTORS HEREBY
--------------------
WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY
ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP
ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER.
SECTION 32. Gaming Laws. The grant of security interest and the terms
-----------
and provisions of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, all rights and
remedies of the Trustee and powers of attorney and appointment, are expressly
subject to all laws, statutes,
32
regulations and orders affecting limited gaming or the sale of liquor
(collectively, the "Gaming Laws"), in the State of Colorado, which may include,
but not be limited to, the necessity for the Trustee to obtain the prior
approval of the regulatory agencies enforcing the Gaming Laws before taking any
action hereunder and to be licensed by such regulatory agencies before
exercising certain rights and remedies hereunder.
SECTION 33. Entire Agreement. This written agreement represents the
----------------
final agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent
oral agreements of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There
are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof.
33
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Grantors and the Trustee have caused this
Security Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above
written.
