AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to induce Lender to continue to extend the aforementioned credit facilities, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which hereby are acknowledged, Guarantor hereby represents, warrants, covenants, agrees and guaranties as follows:

 

1. Definitions. This Guaranty is one of the Subsidiary Guaranties referred to in the Credit Agreement and is one of the Loan Documents. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the meanings given those terms in the Credit Agreement when used herein and such definitions are incorporated herein as though set forth in full. In addition, as used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings respectively set forth after each:

 

Guarantied Obligations” means all Obligations of Borrower or any other Obligor at any time and from time to time owed to Lender under one or more of the Loan Documents (but not including Obligations owed to Lender under this Guaranty), whether due or to become due, matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, or contingent or noncontingent, including obligations of performance as well as obligations of payment, and including interest that accrues


after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Guarantor, any other Obligor or any other Person.

 

Guarantor” means Coast Hotels and Casinos Indiana, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company.

 

Guaranty” means this Guaranty, and any extensions, modifications, renewals, restatements, reaffirmations, supplements or amendments hereof.

 

Lender” means the Administrative Agent (acting as the Administrative Agent and/or on behalf of the Lenders), and the Lenders, and each of them, and any one or more of them. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, any right, remedy, privilege or power of Lender may be exercised by the Administrative Agent, or by the Required Lenders, or by any Lender acting with the consent of the Required Lenders.

 

2. Guaranty of Guarantied Obligations; Insolvency.

 

(a) Guarantor hereby irrevocably, unconditionally guaranties and promises to pay and perform on demand the Guarantied Obligations and each and every one of them, including all amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals or extensions of any of them, whether such amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals or extensions are evidenced by new or additional instruments, documents or agreements or change the rate of interest on any Guarantied Obligation or the security therefor, or otherwise.

 

(b) As used in this Section: (a) the term “Applicable Insolvency Laws” means the laws of the United States of America or of any State, province, nation or other governmental unit relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, fraudulent transfers or conveyances or other similar laws (including, without limitation, 11 U.S.C. §547, §548, §550 and other “avoidance” provisions of Title 11 of the United Stated Code) as applicable in any proceeding in which the validity and/or enforceability of this Guaranty or any Specified Lien is in issue; and (b) “Specified Lien” means any security interest, mortgage, lien or encumbrance securing this Guaranty, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty, if, in any proceeding, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that this Guaranty or any Specified Lien would, but for the operation of this Section, be subject to avoidance and/or recovery or be unenforceable by reason of Applicable Insolvency Laws, this Guaranty and each such Specified Lien shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Guaranty or such Specified Lien to be subject to avoidance, recovery or unenforceability. To the extent that any payment to, or realization by, Lender on the Guarantied Obligations exceeds the limitations of this Section and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by which such actual payment or realization exceeds such limitation, and this Guaranty as limited shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against Guarantor. This Section is intended solely to reserve the rights of Lender hereunder against Guarantor in such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Insolvency Laws and neither Guarantor, Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guarantied

 

-2-


Obligations nor any Person shall have any right, claim or defense under this Section that would not otherwise be available under Applicable Insolvency Laws in such proceeding.

 

3. Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty is irrevocable and continuing in nature and relates to any Guarantied Obligations now existing or hereafter arising. This Guaranty is a guaranty of prompt and punctual payment and performance and is not merely a guaranty of collection.

 

4. Relationship to Other Agreements. Nothing herein shall in any way modify or limit the effect of terms or conditions set forth in any other document, instrument or agreement executed by Guarantor or in connection with the Guarantied Obligations, but each and every term and condition hereof shall be in addition thereto. All provisions contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document that apply to Loan Documents generally are fully applicable to this Guaranty and are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

5. Subordination of Indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor to the Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor agrees that:

 

(a) Any indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor hereby is subordinated to the Guarantied Obligations.

 

(b) If Lender so requests, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any such indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor as trustee for Lender and shall be paid over to Lender in kind on account of the Guarantied Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the obligations of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

 

(c) Should Guarantor fail to collect or enforce any such indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor and pay the proceeds thereof to Lender in accordance with Section 5(b) hereof, Lender as Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact may do such acts and sign such documents in Guarantor’s name as Lender considers necessary or desirable to effect such collection, enforcement and/or payment.

 

6. Statutes of Limitations and Other Laws. Until the Guarantied Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, all the rights, privileges, powers and remedies granted to Lender hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Guarantied Obligations may have become barred by any statute of limitations. Guarantor expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation, and any and all Laws providing for exemption of property from execution or for evaluation and appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Laws.

 

7. Waivers and Consents. Guarantor acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the guaranty of obligations of Persons other than Guarantor and, in full recognition of that fact, consents and agrees that Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate or otherwise change the time

 

-3-


for payment or the terms of the Guarantied Obligations or any part thereof, including any increase or decrease of the rate(s) of interest thereon; (b) supplement, modify, amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with respect to, the Guarantied Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents to which Guarantor is not a party or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (c) accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Loan Documents or the Guarantied Obligations or any part thereof; (d) accept partial payments on the Guarantied Obligations; (e) receive and hold additional security or guaranties for the Guarantied Obligations or any part thereof; (f) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender in its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (g) release any Person from any personal liability with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any part thereof; (h) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of applicable Laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Guarantied Obligations and any security or guaranty therefor in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security and bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (i) consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the Guarantied Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability of Guarantor or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof with respect to all or any part of the Guarantied Obligations.

 

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may enforce this Guaranty independently as to Guarantor and independently of any other remedy or security Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require Lender to marshal assets in favor of Guarantor, and agrees that Lender may proceed against Borrower, or upon or against any security or remedy, before proceeding to enforce this Guaranty, in such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender may file a separate action or actions against Borrower and/or Guarantor without respect to whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor agrees that Lender, Borrower and any Affiliates of Borrower or Borrower may deal with each other in connection with the Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing between any of them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the security of this Guaranty. Lender’s rights hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Guaranty shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Guarantied Obligations which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid. The rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of this Guaranty with respect to Guarantor at all times shall remain effective to guaranty the full amount of all the Guarantied Obligations even though the Guarantied Obligations, or any part thereof, or any security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against Borrower or any other guarantor or surety and whether or not Borrower shall have any personal liability with respect thereto. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor expressly waives any and all defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of (a) any disability or other defense of Borrower with respect to the

 

-4-


Guarantied Obligations, (b) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Guarantied Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, (c) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower (other than by reason of the full payment and performance of all Guarantied Obligations), (d) any failure of Lender to marshal assets in favor of Borrower or any other Person, (e) except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, any failure of Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral to Guarantor or any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of Collateral, (f) any failure of Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Guarantied Obligation, including without limitation, any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Guarantied Obligation, (g) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of Borrower or the Guarantied Obligations or any security or guaranty therefor by operation of law or otherwise, (h) any Law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation, (i) any failure of Lender to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person, (j) the election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (k) any extension of credit or the grant of any Lien under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (l) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (m) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, (n) the avoidance of any Lien in favor of Lender for any reason, (o) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the Guarantied Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding, (p) to the extent permitted, the benefits of any form of one-action rule, or (q) any action taken by Lender that is authorized by this Section or any other provision of any Loan Document. Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guarantied Obligations.

 

8. Condition of Borrower and Borrower’s Subsidiaries. Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from Borrower and Borrower’s Subsidiaries, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of Borrower and Borrower’s Subsidiaries and their Properties, and Guarantor now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of Borrower and Borrower’s Subsidiaries and their Properties. Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Lender (should any such duty exist) to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact or thing related to the businesses, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or Borrower’s Subsidiaries or their Properties, whether now known or hereafter known by Lender during the life of this Guaranty. With respect to any of the Guarantied

 

-5-


Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of Borrower or any Subsidiaries thereof or the officers or employees acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and all Guarantied Obligations made or created in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be secured hereby.

 

9. Liens on Real Property. In the event that all or any part of the Guarantied Obligations at any time are secured by any one or more deeds of trust or mortgages or other instruments creating or granting Liens on any interests in Real Property, Guarantor authorizes Lender, upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at its sole option, without notice or demand and without affecting any Guarantied Obligations of Guarantor, the enforceability of this Guaranty, or the validity or enforceability of any Liens of Lender on any Collateral, to foreclose any or all of such deeds of trust or mortgages or other instruments by judicial or nonjudicial sale. Guarantor expressly waives any defenses to the enforcement of this Guaranty or any rights of Lender created or granted hereby or to the recovery by Lender against Borrower or any other Person liable therefor of any deficiency after a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale because all or any part of the Guarantied Obligations is secured by Real Property. This means, among other things: (1) Lender may collect from any Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal Property collateral pledged by Borrower. (2) If the Lender forecloses on any Real Property collateral pledged by Borrower: (A) The amount of the Guarantied Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price. (B) The Lender may collect from any Guarantor even if the Lender, by foreclosing on the Real Property collateral, has destroyed any right any Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses any Guarantor may have because all or any part of the Guarantied Obligations is secured by Real Property. Guarantor expressly waives any defenses or benefits that may be derived from California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 580a, 580b, 580d or 726, or comparable provisions of the Laws of any other jurisdiction, including, without limitation, NRS Section 40.430 and judicial decisions relating thereto, and NRS Sections 40.451, 40.455, 40.457 and 40.459 and all other suretyship defenses it otherwise might or would have under California Law or other applicable Law. Guarantor expressly waives any right to receive notice of any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any Real Property or interest therein subject to any such deeds of trust or mortgages or other instruments and any Guarantor’s or any other Person’s failure to receive any such notice shall not impair or affect Guarantor’s Obligations or the enforceability of this Guaranty or any rights of Lender created or granted.

 

10. Waiver of Rights of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein or in any other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party, unless and until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full, Guarantor hereby expressly waives with respect to Borrower and its successors and assigns (including any surety) and any other Person which is directly or indirectly a creditor of Borrower or any surety for Borrower, any and all rights at Law or in equity to subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to setoff or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, or to a holder or transferee against a maker, and which Guarantor may have or hereafter acquire against Borrower or any other such Person in connection with or as a result of Guarantor’s execution, delivery and/or performance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party. Guarantor agrees that it shall not have or assert any

 

-6-


such rights against Borrower or its successors and assigns or any other Person (including any surety) which is directly or indirectly a creditor of Borrower or any surety for Borrower, either directly or as an attempted setoff to any action commenced against Guarantor by Borrower (as borrower or in any other capacity), Lender or any other such Person unless and until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full. Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Borrower and Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect Guarantor’s liability hereunder, under any other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party, or the enforceability hereof or thereof.

 

11. Understandings With Respect to Waivers and Consents. Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein are made with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which Guarantor otherwise may have against Borrower, Lender or others, or against any Collateral, and that, under the circumstances, the waivers and consents herein given are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or Law. Guarantor acknowledges that it has either consulted with legal counsel regarding the effect of this Guaranty and the waivers and consents set forth herein, or has made an informed decision not to do so. If this Guaranty or any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be unenforceable under or in violation of applicable Law, this Guaranty and such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by Law.

 

12. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants that (i) it is duly organized and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has full capacity and right to make and perform this Guaranty, and all necessary authority has been obtained; (ii) this Guaranty constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms except as enforcement may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, Gaming Laws or equitable principles relating to the granting of specific performance and other equitable remedies as a matter of judicial discretion; (iii) the making and performance of this Guaranty does not and will not violate the provisions of any applicable law, regulation or order, and does not and will not result in the breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent under, any material agreement, instrument, or document to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property may be bound or affected; (iv) all material consents, approvals, licenses and authorizations of, and filings and registrations with, any governmental authority required under applicable law and regulations for the making and performance of this Guaranty have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect; (v) by virtue of its relationship with Borrower, the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty is for the direct benefit of Guarantor and it has received adequate consideration for this Guaranty; and (vi) the financial information, that has been delivered to Lender by or on behalf of Guarantor, is complete and correct in all respects and accurately presents the financial condition and the operational results of Guarantor and since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to Lender, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or operational results of Guarantor.

 

13. Costs and Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay to Lender all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in the enforcement or attempted enforcement of this Guaranty, whether or not an action is filed in connection therewith, and in connection with any waiver or amendment of any term or provision hereof. All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’

 

-7-


fees and disbursements (including the reasonably allocated cost of legal counsel employed by Lender), incurred or paid by Lender in exercising any right, privilege, power or remedy conferred by this Guaranty, or in the enforcement or attempted enforcement thereof, shall be subject hereto and shall become a part of the Guarantied Obligations and shall be paid to Lender by Guarantor, immediately upon demand, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate or, if applicable, the Default Rate provided for under the Credit Agreement.

 

14. Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein or in any Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party, the aggregate liability of Guarantor hereunder for payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations shall not exceed an amount which, in the aggregate, is $1.00 less than that amount which if so paid or performed would constitute or result in a “fraudulent transfer”, “fraudulent conveyance”, or terms of similar import, under applicable state or federal Law, including without limitation, Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The liability of Guarantor hereunder is independent of any other guaranties at any time in effect with respect to all or any part of the Guarantied Obligations, and Guarantor’s liability hereunder may be enforced regardless of the existence of any such guaranties. Any termination by or release of any guarantor in whole or in part shall not affect the continuing liability of Guarantor hereunder, and no notice of any such termination or release shall be required. The execution hereof by Guarantor is not founded upon an expectation or understanding that there will be any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations.

 

15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. GUARANTOR AND LENDER EXPRESSLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. GUARANTOR AND LENDER AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS GUARANTY, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS GUARANTY, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

16. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS

 

-8-


OR CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SITTING IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO.
