  7. OBLIGATION OF BORROWER UNCONDITIONAL.

Nothing contained herein or in the Loan Documents is intended to or shall impair, as between Borrower and the Holder only, the obligation of Borrower, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holder the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable, or to affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of Borrower other than the Secured Parties.

 

  8. AUTHORITY TO ACT FOR HOLDER.

Until the Senior Indebtedness has been Finally Paid, if an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to Borrower shall occur and be continuing, the Holder shall advise the Applicable Collateral Agent, representing the interests of all the Secured Parties with respect to matters under this Section 8, prior to the date that is forty-five (45) days before a final bar on exercising their right to file a proof of debt, proof of claim, or other similar right in such Insolvency Proceeding occurs whether the Holder intends to exercise its rights and file a proof of debt, proof of claim, or preserve such other rights as are available to the Holder prior to the expiration of such rights. In the event that the Holder advises the Applicable Collateral Agent of their intention to let any such rights lapse, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall thereupon immediately have the right to act as the attorney-in-fact for the Holder for the purposes specified in the remainder of this Section 8. If the Holder, regardless of whether it has notified the Applicable Collateral Agent of its intention to preserve its rights or not, is within thirty (30) days of a final bar on exercising its right to file a proof of debt, proof of claim, or exercise such other similar rights as are available to the Holder and has not made such a filing, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall have the right to act as the attorney-in-fact for the Holder for the purposes specified herein, and the Holder hereby irrevocably appoints the Applicable Collateral Agent as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Holder or in the name of the Applicable Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties, for the use and benefit of the Secured Parties, without further or additional notice to the Holder or any of its representatives, successors or assigns, to perform the following acts, at the Applicable Collateral Agent’s option, in such Insolvency Proceeding:

 

4


(a) To enforce or vote claims comprising the Subordinated Indebtedness, either in the name of the Applicable Collateral Agent or any Secured Party or in the name of the Holder, by proof of debt, proof of claim, suit or otherwise; and

(b) To collect any assets of Borrower distributed, divided or applied by way of dividend or payment, or any securities issued, on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness and to apply the same, or the proceeds of any realization upon the same that the Applicable Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in its discretion elects to effect, to the Senior Indebtedness until all of the Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, interest accruing on the Senior Indebtedness after the commencement of any bankruptcy case, irrespective of whether a claim for all or any portion of such amounts is allowable or allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding) has been paid in full.

In no event shall the Applicable Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be liable to the Holder for any failure to prove the Subordinated Indebtedness, to exercise any right with respect thereto or to collect any sums payable thereon.

 

  9. WAIVERS.

The Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law which might be asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance of this Note in any action brought therefor by the Holder. To the fullest extent permitted by law and except as to any notices specified in this Note or any notice which may not be waived in accordance with the UCC, the Borrower hereby further waives: presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment or nonpayment and any and all other notices and demands of any kind in connection with the Senior Indebtedness or the Subordinated Indebtedness; prior notice of and consent to any loans made, extensions granted or other action taken in reliance thereon; and all other demands and notices of every kind in connection with this Note, the Senior Indebtedness or the Subordinated Indebtedness. The Holder consents to any release, renewal, extension, compromise or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Indebtedness, to any substitution, exchange or release of collateral therefor, and to the addition or release of any Person primarily or secondarily liable thereon.

 

  10. INDULGENCES NOT WAIVERS.

Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of the Secured Parties to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or give rise to an estoppel, nor be construed as an agreement to modify the terms of this Note, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver by a party hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party making such waiver, and then only to the extent specifically stated in such writing.

 

  11. ENFORCEMENT.

At any time that the Holder fails to comply with any material provision of this Note that is applicable to the Holder, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled to seek remedies

 

5


against the Holder to compel performance of their obligations hereunder, including without limitation seeking an order for specific performance of their obligations. The Holder agrees that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for breach of its obligations hereunder and hereby agrees in advance to an order of specific performance enforcing any or all of such obligations. The Applicable Collateral Agent may exercise any other remedy available at law or equity to enforce this Note.

 

  12. AMENDMENT OF THE SPONSOR SUBORDINATED NOTES.

The Holder agrees that it will not, without the consent of the Applicable Collateral Agent, amend this Note, so as to modify the financial terms hereof (including without limitation the amount of principal and rate of interest), shorten or extend the maturity hereof, add or change any covenants in a manner materially more restrictive to Borrower, or effect any other modification to this Note, which would be adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties.

 

  13. INCONSISTENT OR CONFLICTING PROVISIONS.

In the event a provision of any of the Transaction Documents is inconsistent or conflicts with the provisions of this Note, the provisions of this Note shall govern and prevail.

 

  14. NOTICES.

All notices in connection with this Note shall be given in the same manner provided for in the Credit Agreement.

 

  15. BENEFIT.

The Holder represents and warrants that the Senior Indebtedness will benefit the Holder in that the Holder is interested in the financial success of Borrower and CityCenter and will benefit from the financial success of Borrower and CityCenter. The Holder acknowledges that the Secured Parties would not extend financial accommodations to Borrower but for the execution of this Note.

 

  16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

This Note constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, inducements or conditions, whether express or implied, oral or written. Neither this Note nor any portion or provision hereof may be changed, waived or amended orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by Borrower, the Applicable Collateral Agent and the Holder.

 

  17. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION.

The Holder shall execute and deliver to the Applicable Collateral Agent such further agreements and instruments and shall take such further action as the Applicable Collateral Agent may at any time or times reasonably request in order to carry out the provisions and intent of this Note.

 

6


  18. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

The subordination provisions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, their successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon the Holder and its successors and assigns.

 

  19. COVENANT NOT TO CHALLENGE.

This Note has been negotiated by the parties with the expectation and in reliance upon the assumption that the instruments and documents evidencing the Senior Indebtedness are valid and enforceable. In determining whether to enter into this Note, the Holder has assumed such validity and enforceability, and has agreed to the provisions contained herein, without relying upon any reservation of a right to challenge or call into question such validity or enforceability. As between the Secured Parties and the Holder, the Holder hereby covenants and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that it shall not initiate in any proceeding a challenge to the validity or enforceability of the documents and instruments evidencing the Senior Indebtedness or of any Lien held by the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in the Property of the Loan Parties, nor shall the Holder instigate other parties to raise any such challenges, nor shall the Holder participate in or otherwise join any such challenges which are raised by other parties.

 

  20. SUBROGATION.

After the Senior Indebtedness has been Finally Paid (and shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code), with respect to any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that the Holder pays over to the Secured Parties pursuant to this Note, the Holder shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payments or distributions so paid, to the rights of the Secured Parties to receive payments or distributions of assets of Borrower that secure such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Subordinated Indebtedness are paid in full. For the purpose of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the Secured Parties by or on behalf of Borrower or by or on behalf of the Holder by virtue of the provisions hereof which otherwise would have been made to the Holder shall, as among Borrower, a creditor of Borrower (other than the Subordinated Lenders and the Secured Parties) and the Holder, be deemed to be payment by Borrower to or on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness. In the event that the Holder turns over to any Secured Party any payment or contributions received by them in accordance with this Note, the Holder shall, for purposes of determining whether any default under this Note has occurred, be deemed never to have received such payment or distribution. In the event that Borrower fails to make any payment on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness by reason of any provision contained herein, such failure shall, notwithstanding such provision contained herein, constitute a default with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness if and to the extent such failure would otherwise constitute a default in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Indebtedness.

 

  21. COLLATERAL AGENT.

The Holder acknowledges that the Applicable Collateral Agent has been appointed as the exclusive agent of the Controlling Secured Party (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) to exercise or enforce their rights, remedies, privileges and powers under this Note

 

7


and to otherwise act on their behalf in all matters related hereto. The Holder shall respect and treat any and all actions so taken by the Applicable Collateral Agent as if taken by the Controlling Secured Party. Only the Applicable Collateral Agent may take any action, on behalf of the Secured Parties, to enforce the provisions of this Note against the Holder.

 

  22. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS

The Holder may be treated as the owner of this Note for all purposes.

 

  23. AMENDMENT, WAIVER

This Note may not be amended or modified without the written consent of the Board, the Holder and the Applicable Collateral Agent.

 

  24. NO SECURITY OR GUARANTY

This Note is unsecured and the repayment of this Note is not guarantied by any third party.

 

  25. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

(a) In the event that either (i) the Board approves or authorizes the dissolution or liquidation of the Borrower, or (ii) the Borrower makes a payment in respect of the Other Note (as defined below) to its holder and fails to make a payment in an identical amount in respect of this Note to the Holder, the Holder may declare the unpaid principal of, and accrued interest, on this Note to be immediately due and payable by notice in writing to the Borrower; provided, however, that the Holder may not exercise any remedies to enforce payment of this Note except to the extent permitted under the terms of this Note. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Holder of any such action by the Board approving or authorizing the dissolution or liquidation of the Borrower or making any payment in respect of the Other Note to its holder.

(b) Anything to the contrary in the foregoing notwithstanding, until all of the Senior Indebtedness has been Finally Paid and irrespective of whether an Event of Default has occurred under any of the Loan Documents, the Holder shall not exercise any Lender Remedies or other remedies it may have as a result of a default under the Sponsor Subordinated Notes, except that the Holder may file a proof of claim and otherwise participate in any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower so long as any such participation is not in contravention of the priorities set forth in this Note or adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties in the Senior Indebtedness.

 

  26. GOVERNING LAW

THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA (WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW).

 

  27. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC.

 

8


(A) EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA SITTING IN CLARK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE DISTRICT OF NEVADA, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEVADA STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

(B) EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 11 (a). EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(C) EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE HOLDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

  28. SUBORDINATION

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Holder, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, hereby subordinates its right to payment of all of the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Final Payment of all of the Senior Indebtedness. Each Secured Party shall be deemed to have acquired its Senior Indebtedness in reliance upon the agreements and priorities set forth herein. If Borrower issues any instrument or document evidencing the Subordinated Indebtedness, including without limitation this Note, each such instrument and document shall

 

9


bear a conspicuous legend that it is subordinated to the Senior Indebtedness. Borrower’s books and records shall be marked to evidence the subordination of all of the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of hereof.

(b) Upon any distribution of assets of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of such Person (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):

(i) the Secured Parties shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (or to have such payment duly provided for in a manner satisfactory to the Secured Parties), including the principal thereof, and all premium and interest due thereon, and other amounts payable comprising the Senior Indebtedness, before the Holder is entitled to receive any payment on account of this Note; and

(ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, with respect to this Note to which the Holder would be entitled except for these provisions, shall be paid by the debtor-in-possession, trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution directly to the Secured Parties, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to the Secured Parties in respect of the Senior Indebtedness.

(c) No right of any present or future Secured Party to enforce subordination as provided herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or by any act or failure to act by any Secured Party. The Holder shall not be released, nor shall the Holder’s obligations hereunder be in any way diminished, by any of the following: (i) the exercise or the failure to exercise by the Secured Parties of any rights or remedies conferred on them under any of the Transaction Documents or existing at law or otherwise, or against any of the Loan Parties’ property; (ii) the commencement of an action at law or the recovery of a judgment at law against the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the performance of the Senior Indebtedness and the enforcement thereof through levy or execution or otherwise; (iii) the taking or institution of any other action or proceeding against the Borrower or any other Loan Party; or (iv) any delay in taking, pursuing, or exercising any action, right, power or remedy with respect to the Senior Indebtedness by any of the Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and anything else contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Secured Parties, from time to time, without prior notice to or the consent of the Holder, may take all or any of the following actions without in any manner affecting or impairing the obligation or liability of the Holder hereunder: (1) obtain a Lien in any property to secure any of the Senior Indebtedness; (2) obtain the primary and secondary liability of any party or parties with respect to any of the Senior Indebtedness; (3) renew, extend, or otherwise change the time for payment of any of the Senior Indebtedness or any installment thereof for any period or otherwise amend or modify the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (4) release or compromise any liability of any nature of any person with respect to the Senior Indebtedness; (5) exchange, enforce, waive, release, and apply any of the Loan Parties’ property and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Secured Parties may in their discretion determine; (6)

 

10


consent to any action or non-action of any Loan Party which may violate the covenants and agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents; or (7) exercise any of their rights conferred by the Loan Documents or by law.
