GROUND LEASE GROUND LEASE

This GROUND LEASE ("Lease"), is made and effective as of September 22, 2006 (the "Commencement Date"), by and between NP LAND, LLC, a Nevada limited-liability company ("Lessor"), and NEVADA PALACE, LLC, a Nevada limited­ liability company ("Lessee") (collectively, the "Parties," and each sometimes singularly, a "Party"), with reference to the following facts:

A.Lessor owns certain land in fee located in the City of Las Vegas, County of Clark, State of Nevada, commonly known as 5255 Boulder Highway and 5335 Boulder Highway, Assessor's Parcel Nos. 161-21-204-002, 161-21-302-001 and 161-21-302- 002, as more particularly described in Exhibit A (the "Land"), and the Improvements (as defined in Section 1.1) located thereon. The Land and the Improvements are currently used for a hotel, casino and recreational vehicle park and such other purposes as are normally and usually incident to such business.

B.A certain portion of the Land (the "D.R. Horton Leasehold") was leased to D.R. Horton, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("D.R. Horton"), under that certain lease agreement (the "D.R. Horton Lease") made between D.R. Horton and Lessor's predecessor-in-interest on April 30, 2005 (attached hereto as Exhibit B). The term of the D.R. Horton Lease ends on October 29, 2006 with no provision for extension.

C.Lessee desires to lease the Land (subject to the D.R. Horton Leasehold) and Improvements from Lessor and to use them for the Permitted Uses (as defined in Section 5.1) while constructing a new hotel and casino defined as the Project in Section 6.2(A), and in conjunction with such Project, Lessee desires to demolish and remove some or all of the Improvements located on the Land.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Lease, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agree as follows:

1.1    Lease of Premises. All improvements, structures, fixtures and appurtenances presently located on the Land or which may be located on the Land from time to time, including any and all new improvements that Lessee shall construct or cause to have constructed (the "Improvements"), together with the Land, shall constitute the "Premises," excepting that the D.R. Horton Leasehold shall be excluded from the Premises until such time as the D.R. Horton Lease expires or is terminated at which time the D. R. Horton Leasehold shall automatically become part of the Premises, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without any further action by the Parties. Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the Premises.

1.2    Title. Lessee acknowledges that Lessee has obtained a leasehold title insurance policy insuring the Leasehold Estate.

1.3    No Modification, Amendment or Extension of the D.R. Horton Lease. Lessor may not, modify, amend or extend the D.R. Horton Lease without Lessee's express written consent (which it may

withhold at its sole and absolute discretion).

2.1    Term. The Premises are leased for the term of thirty-five (35) years (the "Term"), commencing on the Commencement Date, and terminating at midnight on the thirty-fifth (35th) Anniversary (as defined in Section 3.1 (A)) occurs (the "Termination Date").

2.2    Holding Over. If Lessee holds over the Premises or any part thereof after expiration of the Term of this Lease, such holding over, at Lessor's option, shall constitute a month-to-month tenancy, at rent equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the last applicable rent in effect immediately prior to such holding over, which shall not be prorated for any partial month, and shall otherwise be governed by all of the other terms and conditions of this Lease. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, Lessee shall have no right to occupy the Premises or any portion thereof after the expiration or termination of this Lease or of Lessee's right to possession, without Lessor's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion. Acceptance of any holdover rent shall not constitute a waiver by Lessor of any re-entry or other rights of Lessor provided for under this Lease or by law nor shall it be deemed an extension or renewal of the Term of this Lease without a written election thereof by Lessor. If Lessee fails to surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Lessee shall be liable for and shall indemnify, defend and hold Lessor harmless from and against all claims against, or damages suffered by, Lessor resulting from or arising out of Lessee’s failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to be paid to any lessee or prospective lessee who was to have occupied the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys’ fees and costs and brokerage commissions.

3.1    Amount of Rent. Lessee agrees to pay Lessor rent for the use and occupancy of the Premises, as follows:

A.From the Commencement Date until the first (1st) anniversary of the first day of the first month following the Commencement Date ("Anniversary") the rent shall be One Hundred Sixty-Three Thousand Six Hundred Dollars ($163,600), payable monthly in advance on the first day of each month. If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of rent for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month.

B.Commencing on the first (1st) Anniversary and at every Anniversary thereafter (excepting the tenth (10th) Anniversary, the twentieth (20th) Anniversary and the thirtieth (30th) Anniversary) during the Term of this Lease (each, a "CPI Rent Adjustment Date"), the monthly rent shall be adjusted pursuant to a cost of living factor, calculated as follows: the cost of living factor shall be a fraction whose numerator is the index figure stated in the Consumer Price Index for All Consumers (1982-1984=100) specified for All Items relating to the West Region published by the Bureau of Statistics of the United States Department of Labor in effect on such date, and whose denominator is the index figure for such Consumer Price Index in effect on the Commencement Date of this Lease; provided, however, that the cost of living factor shall never be less than one (1). If such Consumer Price Index is discontinued, the cost of living factor shall be based on comparable statistics on changes in the purchasing power of the consumer dollar for the applicable periods, as published by a responsible financial periodical report of a recognized governmental or private authority. The rent so calculated shall be the monthly rent for each month during the one (1) year

period from each CPI Rent Adjustment Date until the next CPI Rent Adjustment Date, FRV Rent Adjustment Date (as defined in Section 3.1(C)) or Termination Date, payable monthly in advance, beginning on the first day of each and every month during each such one (1) year period.

C.On the tenth (10th) Anniversary, the twentieth (20th) Anniversary and the thirtieth (30th) Anniversary (each, a "FRV Rent Adjustment Date"), the monthly rent shall be adjusted to the "Fair Rental Value" for the Premises, calculated pursuant to Paragraph 3.2 hereof. The Fair Rental Value so calculated shall be the monthly rent for each month during the one (1) year period after each FRV Rent Adjustment Date until the next CPI Rent Adjustment Date or Termination Date, payable monthly in advance, beginning on the first day of each and every month during each such one (1) year period.

3.2    Determination of Fair Rental Value.

A.The term "Fair Rental Value" shall mean an amount equal to the product of: (i) the then prevailing rate of return being realized by landowners for comparable property located in Clark County, Nevada; provided, however, that in no event shall such rate of return be less than eight percent (8%) per year; times (ii) the market value of the Land. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the rent for any rental period be less than the rent in effect immediately preceding the commencement of such rental period. The market value for the Land shall be based upon the assumption that the Land is free and clear of this Lease and any Improvements, but is subject to similar restrictions on use, as herein set forth, and giving due consideration to amenities furnished, and any other factors which would ordinarily be considered in establishing the prevailing market value, all as applicable to the use permitted in this Lease in other comparable commercial developments and resort casino ground leases in Clark County, Nevada.

B.Not later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to each FRV Rent Adjustment Date, Lessor and Lessee shall meet in an effort to negotiate, in good faith, the Fair Rental Value of the Premises as of the FRV Rent Adjustment Date. If Lessor and Lessee have not agreed upon the Fair Rental Value of the Premises at least ninety (90) days prior to the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date, the Fair Rental Value shall be determined by appraisal, by one or more appraisers (herein called "Appraiser(s)"), as provided below in this Paragraph 3.2. Such Appraiser(s) shall have at least fifteen (15) years' experience in the appraisal of commercial real property in Clark County, Nevada, and shall be members of professional organizations such as MAI or the equivalent.

C.If Lessor and Lessee are not able to agree upon the Fair Rental Value of the Premises within the prescribed time period, then Lessor and Lessee shall attempt to agree in good faith upon a single Appraiser not later than seventy-five (75) days prior to the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date. If Lessor and Lessee are unable to agree upon a single Appraiser within such time period, then Lessor and Lessee shall each appoint one Appraiser not later than sixty-five (65) days prior to the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date. Within ten (10) days thereafter, the two (2) appointed Appraisers shall appoint a third Appraiser. If either Lessor or Lessee fails to appoint its Appraiser within the prescribed time period, the single Appraiser appointed shall determine the Fair Rental Value of the Premises as of the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date. Each Party shall bear the cost of its own Appraiser and the Parties shall share equally the cost of the single or third Appraiser, if applicable.

D.If a single Appraiser is chosen, then such Appraiser shall determine the Fair Rental Value of the Premises. Otherwise, the Fair Rental Value of the Premises shall be the arithmetic average of the two (2) of the three (3) appraisals which are closest in amount, and the third appraisal shall be disregarded; provided, however, if the highest appraisal exceeds the middle appraisal by the same amount that the middle appraisal exceeds the lowest appraisal, then the middle appraisal shall be the Fair Rental

Value of the Premises. Lessor and Lessee shall instruct the Appraiser(s) to complete the determination of the Fair Rental Value not later than thirty (30) days prior to the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date.

E.If the determination of adjusted rent is made after the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date, Lessee shall continue to pay rent at the rate applicable to the preceding period until the adjusted rate is determined. Promptly after the determination, Lessee shall pay any difference for the period affected by the adjustment, with interest which has accrued from the applicable FRV Rent Adjustment Date at the rate of ten percent (10%) per year.

3.3    Net Lease. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease to the contrary, this Lease is what is commonly known as a "net lease," it being understood that Lessor shall receive the rent set forth in this Lease free and clear of any and all taxes, liens, charges, expenses, offsets, defenses, reductions, deductions, claims, counterclaims, or adjustments of any nature whatsoever in connection with the ownership and operation of the Premises. It is the intention of the Parties that this Lease shall not be terminable for any reason by the Lessee and that the Lessee shall in no event be entitled to any abatement of, or reduction in, Rent payable hereunder, except as herein expressly provided. To the extent (a) any present or future law (whether common law or statutory) may be contrary to this Section 3.3 and (b) may be waived by the agreement of the Parties, the Parties agree to waive the portion of such law to the extent that it would modify the terms of this Section 3.3.

3.4    Past Due Rents. If Lessee shall fail to pay any rents or other charges characterized herein as additional rent, such unpaid amounts shall bear interest from the due date thereof to the date of payment at the Default Rate, as hereinafter defined, and such interest shall be collectible as additional rent.

A.As used in this Lease, the term, "Default Rate," shall mean an annual rate of interest equal to the lesser of: (i) two percent (2%) above the reference interest rate then in effect, and as adjusted from time to time, at Bank of America, NA; or (ii) the highest rate allowable by law.

B.Any payment by Lessee or acceptance by Lessor of a lesser amount than shall be due from Lessee to Lessor shall be treated as a payment on account. The acceptance by Lessor from Lessee of payment for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon, or upon any letter accompanying such a check, that such lesser amount is payment "in full," or language to like effect, shall not constitute an accord and satisfaction, shall be given no effect, and Lessor may accept such check without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Lessor may have against Lessee.

3.5    Other Financial Obligations of Lessee. In addition to the rent set forth herein, Lessee shall pay to the persons or entities respectively entitled thereto all impositions, insurance premiums, operating charges, maintenance charges, construction costs, claims, taxes, liens and any other charges, costs and expenses which arise or may be contemplated under any provisions of this Lease (including compliance with the Applicable Requirements as defined in Section 6.4(A)). All of such charges, costs and expenses shall constitute additional rent, and upon the failure of Lessee to pay any such additional rent, Lessor shall have the same rights and remedies as otherwise provided in this Lease for the failure of Lessee to pay rent.

4.1    Lessee to Pay Taxes. In addition to the payment of rent, Lessee shall pay through the Term of this Lease, beginning as of the Commencement Date, directly to the appropriate taxing or other applicable authority at least ten (10) days before the same become delinquent, all real property taxes and assessments of every kind attributable to the Premises or any part thereof or Improvement thereon, or for

which Lessor or Lessee in respect thereof, are now or may during the Term be assessed or become liable, whether assessed to or payable by Lessor or Lessee. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, within thirty (30) days after the date of payment satisfactory evidence that the tax has been paid.

4.2    Installment Payment. If, by any law, any such tax is payable or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid in installments, Lessee may pay the tax, together with any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of the tax, in installments as they become due.

4.3    Proration for Time. All such taxes and assessments for the first and, if the Lessee is not in default under this Lease, the last year of this Lease, shall be prorated between the Lessor and Lessee on the basis of the applicable tax fiscal year.

4.4    Contest-Surety Bond. Lessee shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any such imposition by appropriate legal proceedings, but this right shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving or modifying or extending Lessee's covenant to pay any such imposition at the time and in the manner as in this Section provided. Lessor shall, upon request, join in any such proceedings if Lessee determines that it shall be necessary or convenient for Lessor to do so in order for Lessee to prosecute properly such proceedings, but Lessor shall not be subject to any costs or expenses in connection with any such proceeding brought by Lessee. Lessee hereby covenants to indemnify and save Lessor harmless from any such costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. Lessee, upon commencing such contest, shall deliver to Lessor a good and sufficient surety bond guaranteeing payment of any taxes, penalties, interest and other costs thereof, found due as a result of such contest.

4.5    Separate Assessment of Lessee's Personal Property. During the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall attempt to cause all taxes, assessments, and other charges levied upon or imposed upon any personal property situated in, on or about the Premises to be levied or assessed separately from the Premises and not as a lien thereon.

4.6    Indemnification of Lessor. Lessee shall protect and hold harmless Lessor and the Premises and all Improvements in, on or about the same from all liability for any and all such taxes, assessments and charges, together with any interest, penalties or other sums thereby imposed, and from any sale or other proceeding to enforce payment thereof.

5.1    Permitted Uses. During the Term, Lessee shall have the right to use and occupy the Premises, for all lawful purposes, except as may be otherwise provided in this Lease (the "Permitted Uses"). Lessor shall obtain and maintain, at Lessor's sole cost, all licenses, approvals, and permits required for operation of the Premises, including without limitation any licenses, permits or approvals of any Gaming Authorities (as defined in Section 18.1).

5.2    Limits on Use;·Licenses. During the Term of the Lease, the Premises and all Improvements constructed and maintained thereon shall be used by Lessee for the Permitted Use and for no other use or purpose.

5.3    Indemnity for Violation of Law. Lessee covenants and agrees to indemnify and save Lessor harmless from any penalties, damages or charges imposed for any violation of any and all Laws (as defined in Section 5.3(A)) including Environmental Laws (as defined Section 5.3(B)), whether occasioned by neglect, omission or intentional act of Lessee or any person upon the Premises by license or invitation of

Lessee or holding or occupying the same or any part thereof under or by right of Lessee; provided, however, this indemnity contained in this Section 5.3 shall not apply if such penalties, damages or charges are imposed for any violation of any Law including an Environmental Law, occasioned by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Lessor, its officers, members, agents, representatives, contractors, or employees.

A.For purposes of this Lease, "Laws" shall mean all laws, statutes, rules, regulations, ordinances, judgments, and other pronouncements, including Environmental Laws (as defined below), whether statutory or common law, having the effect of law of the United States or any state, county, city or other political subdivision or of any governmental authority asserting jurisdiction over the Land, Improvements or either Party.

5.4    Contest of Validity of Law; Surety-Bond. Lessee shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, without cost or expense to Lessor, the validity of any Law, if the terms of such Law may be legally held in abeyance without subjecting Lessor to any liability whatsoever because of Lessee's failure to comply immediately therewith, in which event, such compliance may be postponed until the final determination of any such proceeding. Lessee hereby covenants to indemnify and save Lessor harmless from any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs arising from Lessee's contestation of such Law, and upon commencing such contest, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a good and sufficient surety bond guaranteeing payment of any fines, penalties, interest, costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys' fees which may be reasonably expected to become a liability, either directly or indirectly for Lessor as a result of such contest.

6.1    Demolition of Improvements. Lessee may, at its sole cost and expense, demolish any Improvements (including those Improvements which are located upon the Land as of the Commencement Date) upon receipt of all required permits and approvals for such demolition. Lessee shall hold Lessor harmless for any and all liabilities, claims or actions that result from the demolition of any Improvements (including those which arise from the requirements of any Laws as they relate to any remediation, abatement, transportation, or off-site storage of any Hazardous Substance (as defined in Section 15.7) located in, on or about the Land or Improvements, even if such Hazardous Substances are discovered after the Commencement Date and are determined to have been present on the Premises prior to the Commencement Date).

No construction of the Project may be commenced by Lessee until Lessor has approved Lessee's plans and specifications, the contractor (who will

have the requisite construction experience) and the construction contract. If, in addition to the Project, Lessee desires to construct a Major Work of Construction, then no construction may be commenced by Lessee on such Major Work of Construction until Lessor has approved Lessee's plans and specifications, the contractor (who will have the requisite construction experience) and the construction contract. Lessor's approval rights under this Section 6.1(A) shall not be unreasonably, withheld, conditioned or delayed.

under this Lease. Lessor shall be subrogated to Lessee's position and Lessor shall be entitled to exercise the remedies provided in Article 13 for any default described in this Section 7.2.

Lessor hereby consents to all acts of such Lender in connection with any such performance, including, without limitation, entry upon the Premises and commencement and prosecution of foreclosure or other proceedings in order to obtain possession of the Premises from Lessee.

B.Lessee may delegate irrevocably to the Lender under any Leasehold Deed of Trust the authority to exercise any or all of Lessee's rights hereunder, but no such delegation shall be binding upon Lessor unless and until either Lessee or the Lender shall give to Lessor a true and correct copy of a written instrument effecting such delegation. Such delegation of authority may be effected by the terms of the Leasehold Deed of Trust itself, in which case the delivery to Lessor of a true and correct copy of the Leasehold Deed of Trust, together with a written notice specifying the provisions therein which delegate such authority to such Lender, shall be sufficient to give Lessor notice of such delegation.

C.In case of a default by Lessee in the performance or observance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on Lessee's part to be performed under this Lease: (i) each Lender under a Leasehold Deed of Trust shall have an additional twenty (20) business days beyond the applicable cure period set forth in Section 13.1 hereof, within which to cure or to commence the curing of such defaults, as therein provided, during which additional period this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; and (ii) if such default is: (1) other than under a term, covenant, condition or agreement the breach of which can be cured solely by the payment of rent or other sum of money; (2) of such a nature that the same cannot practicably

be cured by the Lender without taking possession of the Premises from Lessee or (3) of such a nature that the same is not susceptible of being cured by the Lender, then Lessor shall not terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof, or otherwise by reason of such default, if and so long as:

(i)In the case of a default which cannot practicably be cured by the Lender without taking possession of the Premises from Lessee: (1) the Lender shall deliver to Lessor within fifteen (15) days of the date on which it received written notice of Lessee's default from Lessor, a written notice wherein the Lender unconditionally guarantees to Lessor that it will proceed diligently to attempt to cure such default and that, if this Lease thereafter is terminated prior to the curing of such default because the Lender ceases its diligent efforts to cure the same, the Lender shall pay to Lessor the cost of curing such default and (2) the Lender shall proceed diligently to obtain possession of the Premises from Lessee (including possession by a receiver), and, upon obtaining such possession, shall proceed diligently to cure such default; and

(ii)In the case of a default which is not susceptible of being cured by the Lender, the Lender shall institute foreclosure proceedings and diligently prosecute the same to completion (unless in the meantime the Lender shall acquire the Leasehold Estate, either in its own name or through a nominee, by assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise).

D.No Lender under a Leasehold Deed of Trust shall be required, pursuant to Section 7.4(C), to continue to proceed to obtain possession of the Premises from Lessee, to continue in possession of the Premises as mortgagee or to continue to prosecute foreclosure proceedings following the cure of such default. Nothing herein shall preclude Lessor from exercising any of its rights or remedies with respect to any other default by Lessee during the period of Lessor's forbearance under this Article 7, but in such event the Lender shall have all of the rights and protections provided in this Article 7 with respect to such other default. If the Lender, or its nominee, or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale, shall cure all continuing defaults of Lessee hereunder and non-continuing defaults susceptible of being cured, then the defaults of any prior holder of the Leasehold Estate which are not continuing and are not susceptible of being cured by such Lender or by said purchaser shall no longer be deemed to be defaults hereunder.

E.Except as provided in Section 7.4(C)(i), no Lender under a Leasehold Deed of Trust shall be personally liable or obligated to perform the obligations of Lessee under the Lease unless and until such Lender becomes the owner of the Leasehold Estate by foreclosure, assignment or transfer in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Thereafter, such Lender and its successors and assigns shall each remain personally liable for the obligations of Lessee only so long as they are the owner of the Leasehold Estate. Any such Lender which becomes the owner of the Leasehold Estate shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of Lessee under this Lease, and shall have the right to assign or sublet in the same manner as Lessee as well as those rights granted a Lender pursuant to Section 7.3.

7.5    New Lease. Upon written notice from any Lender or any successor or assign of a Lender following the termination of this Lease as a result of Lessee's default, Lessor shall enter into a new lease with such Lender or successor or assign of a Lender covering the Premises for the remainder of the Term of this Lease, at the same rent and subject to the same covenants, agreements, conditions, provisions, restrictions and limitations contained in this Lease; provided that such Lender, or successor or assign of a Lender: (a) shall give written notice of its intent to enter into such a new lease within sixty (60) days after it has become the owner of the Leasehold Estate, whether by foreclosure, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise and (b) cures all then existing uncured defaults of Lessee under this Lease which can practicably be cured by such Lender, or successor or assign of a Lender. Such new lease, and this covenant, shall have the same priority with respect to any rights, liens and interests intervening between the date of this Lease

and the effective date of such new lease as this Lease. Each sublessee of the Premises whose sublease was in force and effect immediately prior to the termination of this Lease and did not by its own terms expire prior to the effective date of the new lease, shall attorn to the Lessee under the new lease. Each sublessee who hereafter enters into a sublease of all or any portion of the Premises shall be deemed to have agreed to the provisions of this Section 7.5. In the event that more than one Lender holding a Leasehold Deed of Trust on the same portion of the Premises attempts to exercise the right to obtain a new lease pursuant to this Section 7.5 for such portion of the Premises, then priority for determination of which Lender is entitled to enter into a new lease, free and clear of the rights of all other mortgages, shall be given to the Lender holding the Leasehold Deed of Trust with the highest priority lien upon such portion of the Premises. Lessee shall not be relieved of any liability to Lessor under this Lease by reason of Lessor's entering into a new lease pursuant to this Article 7.

7.6    Protection of Lender.

A.Except in the exercise of any of Lender's remedies under this Article 7, this Lease shall not be cancelled, surrendered, modified or amended without the written consent of a Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

B.If Lessor shall give any notice, demand, election or other communication to Lessee, Lessor shall at the same time give a copy of each such notice to each Lender at the address previously designated by such Lender by written notice to Lessor. Such copies of notices shall be sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by Federal Express or similar overnight delivery service, and shall be deemed given in the same manner as notices to Lessor and Lessee pursuant to Section 17.12. No notice given by Lessor to Lessee shall be binding upon or affect Lessee or any such Lender unless a copy of such notice shall be given to such Lender pursuant to this Section 7.6(B). In the case of an assignment of a Leasehold Deed of Trust or a change in the address of the Lender thereunder, the Lender or its assignee, by written notice to Lessor, may change the address to which copies of notices are to be sent. Lessor shall not be bound to recognize any assignment of a Leasehold Deed of Trust unless and until Lessor shall receive a copy of the recorded assignment and the name and address of the assignee. After Lessor has been given such notice, such assignee shall be deemed to be the Lender for all purposes under this Article 7.

C.Lessor hereby agrees to execute such modifications and amendments to this Lease as may be reasonably required by any Lender or prospective Lender under a Leasehold Deed of Trust and/or Leasehold Encumbrance, provided that such modifications or amendments do not materially diminish the rights of Lessor.

7.7    Asset Based Lending. Lessee shall have the right at any time to encumber all or any part of its interest in its inventory or trade fixtures in any Improvement placed on the Land with a lien to secure financing, and Lessor agrees to execute a waiver and such other agreements as such asset-based lender may reasonably request in connection with such financing. Lessee agrees that any such waiver by Lessor shall include a provision reasonably acceptable to Lessor to the effect that: (a) such lender shall have the right to remove such financed items only during the Term of the Lease and for a period of sixty (60) days after Lessor has given written notice to such lender that the Lease has terminated, for any reason; (b) if such lender undertakes such removal, such lender shall be obligated to repair, at such lender's expense, any damage to the Improvements caused by the removal of any of such financed items; and (c) if such lender fails to remove such financed items during the Term of this Lease or within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from Lessor of the termination of this Lease, such financed items shall be deemed to have been abandoned by such lender to Lessor.

7.8    Assumability of any Leasehold Encumbrance. Any Leasehold Encumbrance shall provide the Lessor with the right (but not the obligation) by payment of any assumption fee and compliance with such Lender's applicable underwriting criteria, to assume any Leasehold Encumbrance in the event of any default by Lessee which results in the termination of this Lease. Lessee shall cause a Lender to execute all documentation to facilitate this right. Lessor's exercise of this right shall not constitute a waiver of any other right Lessor may have against Lessee, any surety or guarantor or anyone else.

7.9    Event of Conflict. In the event a court, arbitrator or other arbitral body asserting jurisdiction over this Lease determines that a conflict exists between any term of this Article 7 and any term of Article 13, the term contained in this Article 7 shall be controlling.

8.1    Duty to Maintain and Repair Premises.

A.No Responsibility of Lessor. Lessor shall not be required or obligated to make any changes, alterations, additions, improvements or repairs in, on or about the Premises, or any part thereof, during the Term of this Lease.

B.Lessee's Duty to Maintain Premises. At all times during the Term, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall keep and maintain the Premises and all Improvements thereon and all facilities appurtenant thereto in good repair and in a safe condition, and the whole of the Premises, including the Land, all Improvements, including, without limitation, the Project and landscaping in a clean, sanitary, orderly and attractive condition. Lessee shall make any and all additions to or alterations or repairs in and about the Premises and the Improvements which may be required, and shall otherwise observe and comply with all Laws and Applicable Requirements in effect from time to time; and Lessee shall indemnify and save harmless Lessor against all actions, claims and damages by reason of Lessee's failure to comply with and perform the provisions of this Section 8.1(B).

8.2    Duty to Repair or Restore Following Damage or Destruction.

A.Repair or Restoration Following Damage or Destruction. If during the Term hereof any Improvement on the Land, including, without limitation, the Project, or any part thereof, shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, neither Lessor nor Lessee shall have any obligation to repair or restore such Improvements; but if Lessee elects to repair or restore such Improvements, any such repair or restoration shall be made at Lessee's sole cost and expense. If Lessee does not elect to repair or to restore the damaged or destroyed portion of any Improvements, Lessee shall nevertheless be obligated to keep the remaining portion of the Premises in the manner prescribed in Section 8.1.

B.Ownership of Insurance Proceeds. All insurance proceeds collected by Lessee for such damage or destruction shall be the sole property of Lessee or, if so specified in any Leasehold Deed of Trust or any Leasehold Encumbrance, its Lender or Lenders.

9.1    Prohibition Against Mechanic's Liens - Indemnification of Lessor. Lessee shall not suffer or permit to be enforced against the Premises, or any part thereof, any mechanic's, materialman's, contractor's or subcontractor's liens arising from or any claim for damages growing out of the work of any construction, repair, restoration, replacement or Improvement, or any other claim or demand howsoever the

same may arise, but Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid all of such liens, claims or demands before any action is brought to enforce the same against the Land; and Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold Lessor and the Land free and harmless from all liability for any and all such liens, claims and demands, together with reasonable attorneys' fees and all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

9.2    Contest by Lessee - Surety Bond. If Lessee shall in good faith contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its expense, defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and satisfy any adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof against Lessor or the Premises, upon the condition that if Lessor shall so require, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to such contested lien, claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same, and holding the Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim, or if Lessor shall so request, Lessee shall procure and record a bond freeing the Premises from the effect of such lien or claim or action thereon, as provided in Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 108.2413 et seq.

9.3    Lessor's Right to Remove Lien. If Lessee fails to discharge such lien or furnish a bond against the foreclosure thereof, as provided by the laws of the State of Nevada, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same or take such other action as Lessor deems necessary to prevent a judgment of foreclosure upon said lien from being executed against the property, and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Lessor, shall be repaid by Lessee upon demand, and, if unpaid, may be treated as additional rent.

9.4    Notices of Non-Responsibility. Nothing in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Lessor, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialman for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any specific improvement, alteration or repair of or to the Premises, any Improvements, or any part thereof. Lessor shall have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises such notices of non-responsibility as Lessor may deem necessary for the protection of Lessor and the fee title of the Premises from mechanic's and materialman's liens. Lessor hereby notifies Lessee that Lessee is required to record a surety bond before undertaking a Major Work of Construction upon the Premises as provided in Nevada Revised Statutes Section 108.234(4).

10.1    Definition of Total and Partial Taking. The term "Total Taking" as used in this Article 10 means the taking of the entire Premises (or of so much of the Land as to prevent or substantially impair the conduct of Lessee's business thereon) through the power or threat of eminent domain by any public or private authority lawfully possessed of that power. The term "Partial Taking" means the taking (other than a Total Taking) of a portion of the Premises, through the power or threat of eminent domain by any public or private authority lawfully possessed of that power.Total Taking - Termination.

10.2    Partial Taking - Partial Termination. If during the Term of this Lease there shall be a Partial Taking, this Lease shall terminate as to the portion of the Premises taken upon the date upon which actual possession of the portion of the Premises is taken pursuant to eminent domain proceedings, but the Lease shall continue in force and effect as to the remainder of the Premises. The rent payable by Lessee for the balance of the Term shall not be abated, but the Lessee will receive an allocation of the award as set forth in Section 10.4(B)(ii).

10.3    Allocation of Award. All compensation and damages awarded for the taking of the Premises or any portion thereof shall be allocated as follows:

carry with it the same consequences as failure to pay any installment of rent.

D.Adjustment of Coverage. In the event that either Party shall at any time deem the limits of the personal injury or property damage public liability insurance then carried to be either excessive or insufficient, the Parties shall endeavor to agree on the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance then to be carried and such insurance shall thereafter be carried with the limits thus agreed on until further change pursuant to the provisions of this section; but if the Parties shall be unable to agree thereon, the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance then to be carried shall be determined by an impartial third person selected by the Parties or should they be unable to agree on a selection, by an impartial third person chosen by the insurance carrier carrying the greatest percentage of liability insurance on the Premises, or its successors on application by either Party made after thirty (30) days written notice to the other Party of the time and place of such application, and the decision of such impartial third person as to the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance then to be carried shall be binding on the Parties, and such insurance shall be carried with the limits as thus determined until such limits shall again be changed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.1. The expenses of such determination shall be borne equally by the Parties.

11.2    Blanket Insurance Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, Lessee's obligations to carry the insurance provided for herein may be brought within the coverage of a so called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Lessee; provided, however, that the coverage afforded Lessor shall not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Agreement by reason of the use of such blanket policy of insurance, and provided further.

Any such policy shall require a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation.

If the Term commences on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of rent for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month.

This Second Amendment to Lease Agreement is dated this 20^th day of December, 2016 (“Amendment Date”), by NP Land, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Lessor”) and Nevada Palace, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Lessee”), and amends that certain Ground Lease Agreement dated September 22, 2006, as amended by that certain amendment dated June 21, 2007(as so amended, the “Lease”).

WHEREAS, the Lessor and Lessee wish to amend, add, and clarify certain provisions of the Lease, which include the calculation of rent, Lessee’s right to purchase the Premises, and Lessee’s rights with respect to redevelopment of the Premises, as set forth in greater detail in this Amendment;

NOW, THEREFORE, based on the consideration and promises herein contained, Lessor and Lessee agree to modify the Lease as follows:

From and after the date of this Amendment the following Sections of the Lease shall be modified as set forth below; capitalized terms used but not defined herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the Lease.

Section 2.1 of the Lease shall be amended and replaced with the following:

2.1    Term. The Premises are leased for the term of thirty-five (35) years (the “Initial Term”) commencing on the Commencement Date, and terminating at midnight on the date the thirty-fifth (35th) anniversary of the Commencement Date occurs (the “Termination Date”); provided, however that Lessee shall be granted five (5) five-year renewal options (total of 25 years) exercisable at Lessee’s sole option (each such option, a “Renewal Option,” and each such additional term, a “Renewal Term”), commencing at the end of the Initial Term and any subsequent Renewal Term (as applicable); provided, further, that Lessee shall provide written notice of exercise to Lessor at least 6 months prior to the end of the Initial Term or the expiring Renewal Term (as applicable). The Initial Term plus any Renewal Term that is exercised shall constitute the “Term” of the Lease.

Section 3.1 and 3.2 of the Lease shall be amended and replaced with the following:

3.1    Amount of Rent. Lessee agrees to pay Lessor rent for the use and occupancy of the Premises in the amount of $235,000 per month (“Rent”) commencing January 1, 2017 (the “Initial Rent Reset Date”). Rent shall be payable monthly in advance on the first day of each month. If the Lease terminates (due to expiration of the Term) on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of Rent for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month. On January 1, 2018, and on the one year anniversary every year thereafter, Rent shall be increased by 1.5%, which shall be the monthly rent amount for the following twelve (12) month period; provided, that an inflation adjustment calculation shall be performed every five years and Rent shall be adjusted to reflect inflation if the aggregate rate of inflation for such five year period exceeds the 1.5% annual adjustment as applied to that five year period, as described in greater detail in the following provision.

3.2    Rent Inflation Adjustment Calculation. On January 1, 2022, the five year anniversary of the Initial Rent Reset Date, Rent shall be adjusted based on the aggregate rate of inflation (for the United States

taken as a whole) that has occurred during the prior five year period since the Initial Rent Reset Date, calculated using the U.S. inflation data published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The monthly Rent amount in effect on the Initial Rent Reset Date shall be multiplied by the aggregate inflation rate for the five-year period (from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2022) to determine the inflation adjusted monthly rent amount. Such amount shall become the new monthly Rent amount, unless such amount is less than the current monthly Rent amount that would be in effect utilizing the 1.5% annual adjustment, described in this Section above (the “Inflation Adjustment Calculation”).

Example:     Jan. 1, 2017 Rent: $235,000

Jan. 1, 2022 Rent using 1.5% annual adjustment = $253,161.75

    

2022 monthly Rent presuming 8% aggregate inflation from Jan. 1, 2017 to Jan. 1, 2022 = $253,800

New Rent as of Jan. 1, 2022 would reset at $253,800.

Such Inflation Adjustment Calculation shall be performed every five years during the remainder of the Initial Term (e.g., on the fifth, tenth, fifteenth, and twentieth anniversaries of the Initial Rent Reset Date) and at the start of each Renewal Term if exercised; provided, that the Inflation Adjustment Calculation shall utilize the inflation data for the five year period from the date of the immediately preceding Inflation Adjustment Calculation to the date of the current Inflation Adjustment Calculation. Lessor shall complete the Inflation Adjustment Calculation and provide a copy of its calculation supporting its determination of the new Rent amount at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such new Rent amount.

The following shall be added as Section 3.6 of the Lease:

3.6    Purchase Option. Lessee shall be granted an option to purchase the Land at the capitalized value of the then current lease payments (the “Capitalized Value”) exercisable at expiration of the Initial Term, and thereafter at the expiration of any Renewal Term; provided, that Lessee shall provide notice of exercise at least six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term. The Capitalized Value shall be calculated by multiplying the monthly Rent (at the time of exercise) by twelve (12) to arrive at an annual rent amount. The annual rent amount will then be divided by ten percent (10%). For example, assuming a $3 million annual rent amount, the land would be valued at $30 million ($3,000,000/.1 = $30,000,000).

Section 12.2 of the Lease shall be amended and replaced with the following:

12.2    Lessee has Right to Sublet. Provided that (a) Lessee continues to be responsible for fulfilling all of its covenants and conditions under this Lease and (b) Lessee is not then in default under this Lease, Lessee shall have the right to enter into subleases for any portion of the Premises without Lessor’s review or consent.

Section 15.1 of the Lease shall be amended and replaced with the following:

15.1    Lessor’s Right of Entry and Inspection.

        

[Intentionally deleted].

In addition to the amendment and replacement of specific Lease Sections set forth above, the Lessor and Lessee desire to clarify and amend Lessee’s rights to redevelop the Premises. As such, notwithstanding any other provision in the Lease to the Contrary, the Lessor and Lessee agree that from and after the date of this Amendment that:

Lessee shall have plenary development rights with respect to the Premises during the Term of the Lease, including the right to demolish some or all of the existing Premises, salvage the existing Improvements, engage in a Major Work of Construction, including a complete redevelopment of the Premises, and sublease some or all of the Land to a third party for redevelopment of the Premises (“Redevelopment Rights”), and Lessor shall not have any notice, consent, or approval rights whatsoever with respect to Lessee’s exercise of its Redevelopment Rights; provided, however, that Lessor shall have the right to review the financial resources of any Sublessee (as defined below) on the terms and conditions set forth below. Lessee shall have all right, title and interest in any items salvaged from the Premises. All construction shall be at Lessee's sole cost and expense and in accordance with all Laws including all applicable zoning and building code requirements.

If Lessee exercises its Redevelopment Rights to demolish the Premises, salvage the existing Improvements, to engage in a Major Work of Construction, or to redevelop the Premises then Lessee shall in its sole discretion determine the types of insurance policies and coverage amounts of such policies applicable to the Premises, including Builder’s Risk and Course of Construction Insurance, based upon the then current development status of the Premises and its business operations. If such insurance policies differ from, or the coverage amounts are less than, the insurance policies and coverage amounts set forth in Exhibit C, then Lessee shall fully indemnify Lessor with respect to any monetary liabilities incurred by Lessor that would have been insured under the insurance requirements set forth in Exhibit C but were not so insured as of the date of loss due Lessee’s exercise of its discretion to change such insurance policy types or coverage amounts.

Lessee shall be permitted to sublet some or all of the existing Premises, or sublease some or all of the Land, to a third party for purposes of redevelopment of the Premises (a “Sublessee”), subject only to Lessor’s confirmation that such Sublessee shall have sufficient financial resources to make future Rent payments, taking into account Sublessee’s anticipated business operations, including business operations after a redevelopment of the Premises if applicable; provided, that the Lessor shall make such determination (using established industry standards for appraising financial risk) within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice from Lessee of the proposed sublease.

If the Lessee subleases the Land for a rental amount greater than the Rent owed to Lessor under the lease, Lessee and Lessor shall split such excess amount with Lessor and Lessee each receiving fifty percent thereof.

In the event of a conflict or ambiguity between the terms and conditions of this Amendment and the Lease, the terms of this Amendment shall control. Except as modified hereby, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect as written.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have hereunto caused this Amendment to be duly executed as of the date first above written.
