1.2           Secured Obligations.

1.2.1        Trustor makes the grant, bargain, conveyance, sale, transfer and assignment set forth in Section 1.1 and grants the security interest set forth in Article 3 for the purpose of securing the following obligations (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”) in any order of priority that Beneficiary may choose:

(a)           Except as specified in Section 1.2.2 below, the payment and performance of each obligation of Trustor pursuant to that certain Guaranty (as amended as of the date hereof, the “Guaranty”), dated June 10, 2004, entered into by Trustor in favor of Beneficiary pursuant to that Instrument of Joinder to Guaranty dated as of October 8, 2004.  The Guaranty has been entered into by Trustor to, among other things, guaranty the payment and performance of all obligations of Borrower to Beneficiary under the Credit Agreement and all related Loan Documents, pursuant to which the Lenders have extended or have agreed to extend to the Borrower certain secured revolving and term credit facilities, presently in the aggregate principal amount of $275,000,000 (the “Commitment”), including, but not limited to the payment of all amounts owing under the Swing Line, the payment of all amounts owing with respect to the Letters of Credit, including without limitation unreimbursed drawings and obligations to furnish cash collateral as provided in the Credit Agreement, and the payment of all amounts owing under any and all Secured Swap Contracts entered into by the Borrower with any Lender or Affiliate thereof;

(b)           The payment and performance of all future advances and other obligations that Trustor or any other Person or entity may owe to Beneficiary and/or any Lender (whether as principal, surety or guarantor), when a writing evidences Trustor’s and Beneficiary’s agreement that such advances or obligations be secured by this Deed of Trust;

(c)           The payment and performance of all obligations of Trustor under this Deed of Trust;

6

(d)           The payment and performance of all modifications, amendments, extensions and renewals, however evidenced, of any of the Secured Obligations described in clause (a), (b) or (c) above.

1.2.2        Notwithstanding any provision of this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document, the obligations and liability of Trustor, any Borrower or any other Person arising under Sections 5.09 and/or 10.04 of the Credit Agreement (and/or under any separate agreement relating to Hazardous Materials which states that it is not secured by real property) are not and shall not be Secured Obligations under this Deed of Trust.

1.2.3        All Persons who may have or acquire an interest in all or any part of the Property will be considered to have notice of, and will be bound by, the terms of the Secured Obligations and each other agreement or instrument made or entered into in connection with each of the Secured Obligations.  Such terms include any provisions in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents which permit borrowing, repayment and reborrowing, or which provide that the interest rate on one or more of the Secured Obligations may vary from time to time.

1.2.4        In addition to the indebtedness evidenced by the Guaranty and all other Secured Obligations, this Deed of Trust, to the fullest extent permitted by the Laws of the State of Missouri, shall secure also and constitute a Lien on the Property for all future advances made by the Beneficiary to Borrower and future obligations incurred by Borrower to Beneficiary in connection with the Property to the same extent as if such future advances were made or such future obligations incurred on the date of the execution of this Deed of Trust.  The total amount of the indebtedness that may be secured by this Deed of Trust shall not exceed a maximum principal amount equal to $275,000,000.00 plus future advances and/or future obligations made or incurred for the reasonable protection of the security or to enable completion of a contemplated improvement, all as contemplated by Subsection 3 of §443.055, Missouri Revised Statutes, and this instrument is to be governed by said §443.055.

2.             Assignment of Rents and Leases.

2.1           Assignment.  Trustor hereby irrevocably, absolutely, presently and unconditionally assigns, transfers and sets over to Beneficiary all of the right, title and interest which Trustor now has or may later acquire in and to the Rents and the Leases, and confers upon Beneficiary the right to collect such Rents and enforce the provisions of the Leases with or without taking possession of the Property.  This is an absolute assignment, not an assignment for security only.

2.2           Grant of License.  Beneficiary hereby confers upon Trustor a license (“License”) to collect and retain the Rents as they become due and payable, so long as no Event of Default, as defined in Section 6.2, shall exist and be continuing.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary shall have the right, which it may choose to exercise in its absolute discretion, to terminate this License without notice to or demand upon Trustor, and without regard to the adequacy of Beneficiary’s security under this Deed of Trust.

7

2.3           Collection and Application of Rents.  Subject to the License granted to Trustor under Section 2.2, Beneficiary has the right, power and authority to collect any and all Rents and exercise Trustor’s right, title and interest under the Leases.  Trustor hereby appoints Beneficiary its attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, if and at the times when Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may so choose:

(a)           Demand, receive and enforce payment of any and all Rents and any other right, title and interest of Trustor under the Leases; or

(b)           Give receipts, releases and satisfactions for any and all Rents and any other obligations and duties under the Leases; or

(c)           Sue either in the name of Trustor or in the name of Beneficiary for any and all Rents and to enforce any other obligations and duties under the Leases.

Beneficiary’s right to the Rents and the Leases does not depend on whether or not Beneficiary takes possession of the Property as permitted under Section 6.3.3.  In Beneficiary’s absolute discretion, Beneficiary may choose to collect Rents and exercise the right, title and interest of Trustor under the Leases either with or without taking possession of the Property.  Beneficiary shall apply all Rents collected by it in the manner provided under Section 6.6.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and Beneficiary is in possession of all or part of the Property and is collecting and applying Rents and exercising any right, title and interest of Trustor under the Leases as permitted under this Deed of Trust, then Beneficiary, Trustee and any receiver shall nevertheless be entitled to exercise and invoke every right and remedy afforded any of them under this Deed of Trust and at law and in equity, including the right to exercise the power of sale granted under Section 1.1 and Section 6.3.7.

2.4           Beneficiary Not Responsible.  Under no circumstances shall Beneficiary have any duty to produce Rents from the Property or maintain the Leases.  Regardless of whether or not Beneficiary, in Person or by agent, takes actual possession of the Land and Improvements, Beneficiary is not and shall not be deemed to be:

(a)           a “mortgagee in possession” for any purpose; or

(b)           responsible for performing any of the obligations under any Lease; or

(c)           responsible for any waste committed by lessees or any other parties, any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property; or

(d)           liable in any manner for the Property or the use, occupancy, enjoyment or operation of all or any part of it.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.4 shall not be construed as a waiver of any liability of Beneficiary to Trustor that would otherwise exist as a result of Beneficiary’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8

2.5           Leasing.  Without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, Trustor shall not accept any deposit or prepayment of Rents for any period exceeding one (1) month, and Trustor shall not lease the Property or any part of it except strictly in accordance with the Loan Documents.  Trustor shall not apply any Rents in any manner prohibited by the Loan Documents.

3.             Grant of Security Interest.

3.1           Security Agreement.  The parties intend for this Deed of Trust to create a lien on and security interest in the Property, and an absolute assignment of the Rents and the Leases, all in favor of Beneficiary.  The parties acknowledge that some of the Property and some of the Rents and Leases may be determined under applicable law to be personal property or fixtures.  To the extent such Property, Rents or Leases constitute personal property, Trustor, as debtor, hereby grants to Beneficiary, as secured party, a security interest in all such Property, Rents and Leases, to secure payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and Trustor, as debtor, also has granted a security interest in such Property, Rents and Leases pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Security Agreement dated October 8, 2004, executed by the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, as debtor, in favor of Beneficiary, as secured party, as modified from time to time.  This Deed of Trust constitutes a security agreement under the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time, covering all such Property, Rents and Leases.  To the extent any revenues generated in connection with the operation of the Property from time to time are not real property encumbered by the lien created by Section 1.1, above, and are not absolutely assigned by the assignment set forth in Section 2.1, above, it is the intention of the parties that such revenues shall constitute “proceeds, products, offspring, rents or profits” (as defined in and for the purposes of Section 552(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as such section may be modified or supplemented) of the Land and Improvements, and/or “fees, charges, accounts, or other payments for the use or occupancy of rooms and other public facilities in hotels, motels or other lodging properties,” as applicable (as such terms are defined in and for the purpose of Section 552(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as such Section may be modified or supplemented).

3.2           Financing Statements.  Trustor consents to the filing by Beneficiary  of one or more financing statements and such other documents as Beneficiary may from time to time require to perfect or continue the perfection of Beneficiary’s security interest in any Property, Rents or Leases.  As provided in Section 5.11, Trustor shall pay all fees and costs that Beneficiary may incur in filing such documents in public offices and in obtaining such record searches as Beneficiary may reasonably require.  If Trustor fails to execute any financing statements or other documents for the perfection or continuation of any security interest, Trustor hereby appoints Beneficiary as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact (which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to execute any such documents on its behalf.  If any financing statement or other document is filed in the records normally pertaining to personal property, that filing shall never be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing this Deed of Trust or the rights or obligations of the parties under it.

4.             Fixture Filing.  This Deed of Trust constitutes a financing statement filed as a fixture filing under the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time, covering any Property which now is or later may become fixtures attached to the Land or

9

Improvements.  In connection therewith, the addresses of Trustor, as debtor, and Beneficiary, as secured party, are as set forth in Section 8.11, below.  The foregoing address of Beneficiary, as secured party, is also the address from which information concerning the security interest may be obtained by any interested party.  The property subject to this fixture filing is described in Section 1.1, above.  Portions of the property subject to this fixture filing as identified in this Section are or are to become fixtures related to the real estate described in Exhibit A attached hereto.

5.             Rights and Duties of the Parties.

5.1           Representations and Warranties.  Trustor represents and warrants that, except as previously disclosed to Beneficiary in a writing making reference to this Section 5.1:

(a)           Trustor lawfully possesses and holds fee simple title to all of the Land and Improvements thereon and has or will have good title to all Property (other than personal property utilized by Trustor under such equipment leases and similar financing arrangements as were disclosed to Beneficiary in writing prior to the execution of this Deed of Trust or as are hereafter entered into by Trustor in accordance with the Credit Agreement);

(b)           Trustor has the full and unlimited power, right and authority to encumber the Property and assign the Rents and the Leases;

(c)           This Deed of Trust creates a first and prior lien on and security interest in the Property;

(d)           The Property includes all property and rights which may be reasonably necessary to promote the present beneficial use and enjoyment of the Land and Improvements;

(e)           Trustor owns any Property which is personal property free and clear of any security agreements, reservations of title or conditional sales contracts, and there is no financing statement affecting such personal property on file in any public office (other than personal property utilized by Trustor under such equipment leases and similar financing arrangements as were disclosed to Beneficiary in writing prior to the execution of this Deed of Trust or as are hereafter entered into by Trustor in accordance with the Credit Agreement);

(f)            Trustor’s place of business, or its chief executive office if it has more than one place of business, is located at the address specified below; and

(g)           The Property is located in an area having or identified as having special flood hazards or any similar designation under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended or recodified from time to time, or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended or recodified from time to time.

5.2           Taxes and Assessments.  Trustor shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes, levies, charges and assessments, including assessments on appurtenant water stock, imposed by

10

any public or quasi-public authority or utility company which are (or if not paid, may become) a lien on or security interest in all or part of the Property or any interest in it, or which may cause any decrease in the value of the Property or any part of it.  If any such taxes, levies, charges or assessments become delinquent, Beneficiary may require Trustor to present evidence that they have been paid in full, on ten (10) days’ written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor.  This Section 5.2 is subject to the right granted in Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement to contest in good faith certain taxes, assessments, charges and levies.

5.3           Performance of Secured Obligations.  Trustor shall promptly pay and perform each Secured Obligation in accordance with its terms.

5.4           Liens, Charges and Encumbrances.  Trustor shall immediately discharge any lien on or security interest in the Property to which Beneficiary has not consented in writing.  Subject to any applicable rights to contest set forth in the Credit Agreement, Trustor shall pay, prior to delinquency, each obligation secured by or reducible to a lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance which now does or later may encumber or appear to encumber all or part of the Property or any interest in it, whether the lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance is or would be senior or subordinate to this Deed of Trust.

5.5           Damages and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds.

5.5.1        Trustor hereby absolutely and irrevocably assigns to Beneficiary, and authorizes the payor to pay to Beneficiary, the following claims, causes of action, awards, payments and rights to payment:

(a)           All awards of damages and all other compensation payable directly or indirectly because of a condemnation, proposed condemnation or taking for public or private use which affects all or part of the Property or any interest in it; and

(b)           All other awards, claims and causes of action, arising out of any warranty affecting all or any part of the Property, or for damage or injury to or decrease in value of all or part of the Property or any interest in it; and

(c)           All proceeds of any insurance policies payable because of loss sustained to all or part of the Property; and

(d)           All interest which may accrue on any of the foregoing.

5.5.2        Trustor shall immediately notify Beneficiary in writing if:

(a)           Any damage occurs or any injury or loss is sustained in the amount of $250,000 or more to all or part of the Property, or any action or proceeding relating to any such damage, injury or loss is commenced; or

(b)           Any offer is made, or any action or proceeding is commenced, which relates to any actual or proposed condemnation or taking of all or part of the Property.

11

5.5.3        If Beneficiary chooses to do so, Beneficiary may in its own name appear in or prosecute any action or proceeding to enforce any cause of action based on warranty, or for damage, injury or loss to all or part of the Property and, while any Event of Default remains uncured, Beneficiary may make any compromise or settlement of the action or proceeding.  Beneficiary, if it so chooses, may participate in any action or proceeding relating to condemnation or taking of all or part of the Property, and may join Trustor in adjusting any loss covered by insurance.  Trustor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary its true and lawful attorney-in-fact for all such purposes.  The power of attorney granted hereunder is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.  Trustor shall not settle, adjust or compromise any such action or proceeding without the prior written approval of Beneficiary, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

5.5.4        All proceeds of these assigned claims, other property and rights which Trustor may receive or be entitled to (collectively, “Proceeds”) shall be paid to Beneficiary.  In each instance, Beneficiary shall apply such Proceeds first toward reimbursement of all of Beneficiary’s costs and expenses of recovering the Proceeds, including attorneys’ fees.  If, in any instance, each and all of the following conditions (the “Restoration Conditions”) are satisfied in Beneficiary’s reasonable judgment, Beneficiary shall permit Trustor to use the balance of such Proceeds (“Net Claims Proceeds”) to pay costs of repairing or reconstructing the Property in the manner described below:

(a)           The plans and specifications, cost breakdown, construction contract, construction schedule, contractor and payment and performance bond for the work of repair or reconstruction must all be reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary; and

(b)           Beneficiary must receive evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that, after repair or reconstruction, the Property will be at least as valuable as it was immediately before the damage or condemnation occurred; and

(c)           The Net Claims Proceeds must be sufficient in Beneficiary’s reasonable determination to pay for the total cost of repair or reconstruction, including all associated development costs and interest projected to be payable on the Secured Obligations until the repair or reconstruction is complete; or Trustor must provide its own funds in an amount equal to the difference between the Net Claims Proceeds and a reasonable estimate, made by Trustor and found acceptable by Beneficiary, of the total cost of repair or reconstruction; and

(d)           No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

If Beneficiary finds that such conditions have been met, Beneficiary shall hold the Net Claims Proceeds and any funds which Trustor is required to provide in an interest-bearing passbook savings account and shall disburse them to Trustor on a monthly basis in accordance with Beneficiary’s customary construction lending procedures.  However, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary may apply the Net Claims Proceeds to pay or prepay (without premium) some or all of the Secured Obligations in such order and proportions as Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may choose (subject to the provisions for priority of application of payments set forth in the Credit Agreement).  Any and all Proceeds (including,

12

without limitation, any Net Claims Proceeds) held by Beneficiary from time to time shall be collateral for the Secured Obligations, and Trustor hereby grants to Beneficiary a security interest in and lien on such Proceeds and all rights and remedies available under applicable laws with respect to such Proceeds, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies under the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code.  Trustor shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary and the Lenders any and all documents reasonably requested by Beneficiary in order to confirm, create and perfect such security interest in and lien on such Proceeds.  In the event that any Proceeds are applied to pay any Secured Obligations, then Beneficiary shall have no obligation to disburse or release such applied Proceeds to Trustor under this Section 5.5.  If no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any funds remaining upon completion of the repair or reconstruction shall be returned to Trustor.

5.5.5        Trustor hereby specifically, unconditionally and irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner granted under applicable law, which provide for allocation of condemnation proceeds between a property owner and a lienholder, and any other law or successor statute of similar import.  Trustor hereby specifically, unconditionally and irrevocably waives all right to recover against Beneficiary or any Lender (or any officer, employee, agent or representative of Beneficiary or any Lender) for any loss incurred by Trustor from any cause insured against or required by any Loan Document to be insured against; provided, however, that this waiver of subrogation shall not be effective with respect to any insurance policy if the coverage thereunder would be materially reduced or impaired as a result.

5.5.6        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.5, so long as no Event of Default remains uncured, the proceeds of any casualty or condemnation for which the gross value of the applicable damage and/or taking is less than $250,000 shall be paid to Trustor rather than to Beneficiary (and shall be delivered to Trustor if received by Beneficiary), and Trustor shall not be required to obtain Beneficiary’s consent to settle, adjust or compromise any action or proceeding relating to any such casualty or condemnation (nor shall Beneficiary be entitled to participate in such action or proceeding).

5.6           Maintenance and Preservation of Property.

5.6.1        Except as permitted in the Credit Agreement, Trustor shall not remove or demolish the Property or any part of it, or alter, restore or add to the Property, or initiate or allow any change in any zoning or other land use classification which affects the Property or any part of it, except as permitted or required by the Credit Agreement or with Beneficiary’s express prior written consent in each instance; provided that, without Beneficiary’s consent, Trustor shall be entitled to remove personal property in the ordinary course of Trustor’s business so long as any such personal property is replaced with property of comparable value.

5.6.2        If all or part of the Property becomes damaged or destroyed, Trustor shall promptly and completely repair and/or restore the Property in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with sound building practices, regardless of whether or not Beneficiary agrees to disburse insurance proceeds or other sums to pay costs of the work of repair or reconstruction under Section 5.5.

13

5.6.3        Trustor shall not commit or allow any act upon or use of the Property which would violate:  (i) any applicable law or order of any Governmental Agency, whether now existing or later to be enacted and whether foreseen or unforeseen (except to the extent that noncompliance would not cause a Material Adverse Effect or a License Revocation); or (ii) any public or private covenant, condition, restriction or equitable servitude affecting the Property.  Trustor shall not bring or keep any article on the Property or cause or allow any condition to exist on it, that could invalidate or would be prohibited by any insurance coverage required to be maintained by Trustor on the Property or any part of it under this Deed of Trust.

5.6.4        Trustor shall not commit or allow waste of the Property.

5.6.5        Trustor shall perform all other acts which from the character or use of the Property may be reasonably necessary to maintain and preserve its value. Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, Trustor shall protect and preserve all easements, rights-of-way and other appurtenances to the Land and/or Improvements.  Trustor shall not cause or allow any such easement, right-of-way and other appurtenance to be cancelled, rejected or otherwise terminated, or modified (except for such terminations that occur pursuant to the terms of such easement, right of way and other appurtenance).

5.7           Insurance.

5.7.1        Trustor shall maintain the following insurance with respect to the Property:

(a)           Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times during any period of construction with respect to the portion of the Property affected by such construction a policy or policies of builder’s “all risk” insurance in nonreporting form in an amount not less than the full insurable completed value of such portion of the Property on a replacement cost basis.  The policy or policies shall insure against loss or damage by hazards customarily included within such “all risk” policies and any other risks or hazards which Beneficiary may reasonably specify (and shall include boiler and machinery insurance from and after the date on which any such equipment is installed on the Property), and each shall contain a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) in favor of Beneficiary; provided that Beneficiary shall not be entitled to require Trustor to insure the Property against earthquake risks during any period in which earthquake insurance is not available with respect to the Property at commercially reasonable rates.

(b)           Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times for all portions of the Property not covered by a policy or policies described in Section 5.7.1(a), above, a policy or policies of fire and hazards “all risk” insurance providing extended coverage, in an amount not less than the full insurable value of such portions of the Property on a replacement cost basis.  The policy or policies shall insure against loss or damage by hazards customarily included within “all risk” and “extended coverage” policies and any other risks or hazards which Beneficiary may reasonably specify (and shall include boiler and machinery insurance), and each shall contain a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) in favor of Beneficiary.

14

(c)           Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times for all portions of the Property any policy or policies of business interruption insurance that Beneficiary reasonably requires (including insurance against income loss during a period of at least six (6) months), and each such policy shall contain a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) in favor of Beneficiary.

(d)           Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times a policy or policies of comprehensive liability insurance naming Beneficiary and the Lenders as additional insureds, on an “occurrence” basis, against claims for “personal injury” liability, including bodily injury, death or property damage liability, with a limit of not less than Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) for the first sixty (60) days following the Term Effective Date and not less than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) thereafter.  Such insurance shall be primary and noncontributory with any other insurance carried by Beneficiary and/or any Lender(s).

(e)           Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times such policies of worker’s compensation insurance as may be required by applicable laws (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Beneficiary), covering all employees of Trustor.

(f)            Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times any and all additional insurance that Beneficiary (as instructed by the Requisite Lenders) may from time to time require, so long as such insurance is available in the commercial market at reasonable rates.

(g)           If the Property is required to be insured pursuant to the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, because it is located in an area which has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as a Flood Hazard Area, then Trustor shall provide, maintain and keep in force at all times a flood insurance policy covering the Property in limits that would exceed the damage caused by what is expected to be the most severe flood (or any greater limits to the extent required by applicable law from time to time), containing a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) in favor of Beneficiary.

(h)           The following notice is provided pursuant to Section 427.120, RS.Mo.  As used herein, the terms “you” and “your” shall refer to Trustor, and the terms “we and “us” shall refer to Beneficiary.  UNLESS YOU PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF THE INSURANCE COVERAGE REQUIRED BY YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US, WE MAY PURCHASE INSURANCE AT YOUR EXPENSE TO PROTECT OUR INTERESTS IN YOUR COLLATERAL.  THIS INSURANCE MAY, BUT NEED NOT, PROTECT YOUR INTERESTS.  THE COVERAGE THAT WE PURCHASE MAY NOT PAY ANY CLAIM THAT YOU MAKE OR ANY CLAIM THAT IS MADE AGAINST YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL.  YOU MAY LATER CANCEL ANY INSURANCE PURCHASED BY US, BUT ONLY AFTER PROVIDING EVIDENCE THAT YOU HAVE OBTAINED INSURANCE AS REQUIRED BY OUR AGREEMENT.  IF WE

15

PURCHASE INSURANCE FOR THE COLLATERAL, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COSTS OF THAT INSURANCE, INCLUDING THE INSURANCE PREMIUM, INTEREST AND ANY OTHER CHARGES WE MAY IMPOSE IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLACEMENT OF THE INSURANCE, UNTIL THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CANCELLATION OR EXPIRATION OF THE INSURANCE.  THE COSTS OF THE INSURANCE MAYBE ADDED TO YOUR TOTAL OUTSTANDING BALANCE OR OBLIGATION.  THE COSTS OF THE INSURANCE MAY BE MORE THAN THE COST OF THE INSURANCE YOU MAY BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON YOUR OWN.

5.7.2        All such policies of insurance shall be issued by companies approved by Beneficiary having a minimum A.M. Best’s rating of A-:IX.  The limits, coverage, forms, deductibles, inception and expiration dates and cancellation provisions of all such policies shall be reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary.  Each property insurance policy maintained in connection with any of the Property shall contain a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) in favor of Beneficiary, and shall provide that all proceeds be payable to Beneficiary to the extent of its interest.  Each liability insurance policy maintained in connection with any of the Property shall name Beneficiary and the Lenders as additional insureds.  An approval by Beneficiary is not, and shall not be deemed to be, a representation of the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance.  Each policy of insurance required hereunder shall provide that it may not be modified or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Beneficiary (or ten (10) days’ prior written notice in the event of a premium nonpayment), and shall permit a waiver of subrogation by Trustor in favor of Beneficiary and the Lenders.

5.7.3        Trustor shall supply Beneficiary with certificates of each policy required hereunder and any other policy of insurance maintained in connection with any of the Property, together with an original (which may be a duplicate original) or underlyer of each such policy and all endorsements thereto.  When any insurance policy required hereunder expires, Trustor shall furnish Beneficiary with proof acceptable to Beneficiary that the policy has been reinstated or a new policy issued, continuing in force the insurance covered by the policy which expired.  If Trustor fails to pay any such premium, Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the obligation, to obtain current coverage and advance funds to pay the premiums for it.  Trustor shall repay Beneficiary immediately on demand for any advance for such premiums, which shall be considered to be an additional loan to Trustor bearing interest at the Default Rate, and secured by this Deed of Trust and any other collateral held by Beneficiary in connection with the Secured Obligations.

5.8           Trustee’s Acceptance of Trust.  Trustee accepts this trust when this Deed of Trust is recorded.

5.9           Releases, Extensions, Modifications and Additional Security.

5.9.1        From time to time, Beneficiary and/or any Lender may perform any of the following acts without incurring any liability or giving notice to any Person, and without affecting the personal liability of any Person for the payment of the Secured Obligations (except as provided below), and without affecting the security hereof for the full amount of the

16

Secured Obligations on all Property remaining subject hereto, and without the necessity that any sum representing the value of any portion of the Property affected by Beneficiary’s and/or such Lender’s action(s) be credited on the Secured Obligations:

(a)           Release any Person liable for payment of any Secured Obligation;

(b)           Extend the time for payment, or otherwise alter the terms of payment, of any Secured Obligation;

(c)           Accept additional real or personal property of any kind as security for any Secured Obligation, whether evidenced by deeds of trust, mortgages, security agreements or any other instruments of security; or

(d)           Alter, substitute or release any property securing the Secured Obligations.

5.9.2        From time to time when requested to do so by Beneficiary in writing, Trustee may perform any of the following acts without incurring any liability or giving notice to any Person:

(a)           Consent to the making of any plat or map of the Property or any part of it;

(b)           Join in granting any easement or creating any restriction affecting the Property;

(c)           Join in any subordination or other agreement affecting this Deed of Trust or the lien or security interest of it; or

(d)           Reconvey the Property or any part of it without any warranty.

5.10         Reconveyance.  Upon (a) the expiration or termination of the Commitment, (b) the full and final payment in cash of the Loans and all interest and fees with respect thereto, (c) the payment of all other amounts then demanded by Beneficiary or any Lender or indemnitee and then owed under the Credit Agreement, and (d) the payment of all other amounts then due under the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents and the full payment and performance of all other Secured Obligations (other than indemnity obligations, if any, that are not then due), Beneficiary shall request Trustee in writing to reconvey the Property, and shall surrender this Deed of Trust.  When Trustee receives Beneficiary’s written request for reconveyance and all fees and other sums owing to Trustee by Trustor under Section 5.11, Trustee shall reconvey the Property, or so much of it as is then held under this Deed of Trust, without warranty, to the Person or Persons legally entitled to it.  Such Person or Persons shall pay any costs of recordation.  In the reconveyance, the grantee may be described as “the person or persons legally entitled thereto,” and the recitals of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of their truthfulness.  Neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall have any duty to determine the rights of Persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance.

17

5.11         Compensation, Exculpation, Indemnification.

5.11.1      Trustor agrees to pay reasonable fees as may be charged by Beneficiary and Trustee, subject to the maximum amounts legally permitted, for any services that Beneficiary or Trustee may render in connection with this Deed of Trust, including Beneficiary’s providing a statement of the Secured Obligations or Trustee’s rendering of services in connection with a reconveyance.  Trustor shall also pay or reimburse all of Beneficiary’s and Trustee’s costs and expenses which may be incurred in rendering any such services.  Trustor further agrees to pay or reimburse Beneficiary for all costs, expenses and other advances which may be incurred or made by Beneficiary or Trustee in any efforts to enforce any terms of this Deed of Trust, including any rights or remedies afforded to Beneficiary or Trustee or both of them under Section 6.3, whether any lawsuit is filed or not, or in defending any action or proceeding arising under or relating to this Deed of Trust, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal costs, costs of any Foreclosure Sale (as defined in Section 6.3.8) and any cost of evidence of title.  If Beneficiary chooses to dispose of the Property through more than one Foreclosure Sale, Trustor shall pay all costs, expenses or other advances that may be incurred or made by Trustee or Beneficiary in each of such Foreclosure Sales.

5.11.2      Beneficiary shall not be directly or indirectly liable to Trustor or any other Person as a consequence of any of the following:

(a)           Beneficiary’s exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary in this Deed of Trust;

(b)           Beneficiary’s failure or refusal to perform or discharge any obligation or liability of Trustor under any agreement related to the Property or under this Deed of Trust; or

(c)           Any loss sustained by Trustor or any third party resulting from Beneficiary’s failure to lease or operate the Property, or from any other act or omission of Beneficiary in managing the Property, after an Event of Default, unless the loss is caused by the willful misconduct and bad faith of Beneficiary.

Trustor hereby expressly waives and releases all liability of the types described above, and agrees that no such liability shall be asserted against or imposed upon Beneficiary.

5.11.3      Trustor agrees to indemnify Trustee, Beneficiary and the Lenders (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against and hold them harmless from all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable legal expenses, cost of evidence of title, cost of evidence of value, and other costs and expenses which any of them may suffer or incur (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any such Indemnitee):

(a)           In performing any act required or permitted by this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents or by law;

(b)           Because of any failure of Trustor to perform any of Trustor’s obligations; or

18

(c)           Because of any alleged obligation of or undertaking by Beneficiary to perform or discharge any of the representations, warranties, conditions, covenants or other obligations in any document relating to the Property other than the Loan Documents.

Each obligation or liability of Trustor to any Indemnitee under this Section 5.11.3 shall survive the release and cancellation of any or all of the Secured Obligations and the full or partial release and/or reconveyance of this Deed of Trust.

5.11.4      Trustor shall pay all obligations to pay money arising under this Section 5.11 within five (5) business days demand by Beneficiary (or the applicable Indemnitee).  Each such obligation shall bear interest from the date the obligation arises at the Default Rate set forth in the Credit Agreement, and any such obligation to a Lender shall be added to, and considered to be part of, the principal of the Note in favor of such Lender (and, in the event that such Lender holds more than one Note, the allocation of such obligation among such Notes shall be made by such Lender in its absolute discretion).

5.12         Defense and Notice of Claims and Actions.  At Trustor’s sole expense, Trustor shall protect, preserve and defend the Property and title to and right of possession of the Property, and the security of this Deed of Trust and the rights and powers of Beneficiary and Trustee created under it, against all adverse claims.  Trustor shall give Beneficiary and Trustee prompt notice in writing if any claim is asserted which does or could affect any of such matters, or if any action or proceeding is commenced which alleges or relates to any such claim.

5.13         Substitution of Trustee.  From time to time, Beneficiary may substitute a successor to any Trustee named in or acting under this Deed of Trust in any manner now or later to be provided at law, or by a written instrument executed and acknowledged by Beneficiary and recorded in the office(s) of the recorder(s) of the County.  Any such instrument shall be conclusive proof of the proper substitution of the successor Trustee, who shall automatically upon recordation of the instrument succeed to all estate, title, rights, powers and duties of the predecessor Trustee, without conveyance from it.

5.14         Subrogation.  Subject to Gaming Laws, Beneficiary shall be subrogated to the liens and security interests of all encumbrances, whether released of record or not, which are discharged in whole or in part by Beneficiary in accordance with this Deed of Trust or with the proceeds of any loan secured by this Deed of Trust.

5.15         Site Visits, Observation and Testing.  Beneficiary and its agents and representatives shall have the right at any reasonable time to enter and visit the Property for the purpose of performing appraisals.  In addition, each Person indemnified by the Borrower under Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) and their agents and representatives shall have the right at any reasonable time to enter and visit the Property for the purposes of observing the Property, taking and removing soil or groundwater samples, and conducting tests on any part of the Property; provided that, so long as no Event of Default remains uncured, the Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to conduct any tests that would significantly interfere with the operation of the Property.  The Indemnified Parties have no duty, however, to visit or observe the Property or to conduct tests, and no site visit, observation or

19

testing by any Indemnified Party shall impose any liability on any Indemnified Party.  In no event shall any site visit, observation or testing by any Indemnified Party be a representation that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in, on, or under the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Hazardous Materials Law, or any other applicable Law.  Neither Trustor nor any other party is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation or testing by any Indemnified Party.  The Indemnified Parties owe no duty of care to protect Trustor or any other party against, or to inform Trustor or any other party of, any Hazardous Material or any other adverse condition affecting the Property.  Any Indemnified Party shall give Trustor reasonable notice before entering the Property.  The Indemnified Party shall make reasonable efforts to avoid interfering with Trustor’s use of the Property in exercising any rights provided in this Section.

5.16         Notice of Change.  Trustor shall give Beneficiary prior written notice of (a) any change in the location of Trustor’s place of business or its chief executive office if it has more than one place of business, (b) any change in the location of any of the Property, including the Books and Records, and (c) any change to Trustor’s name or business structure.  Unless otherwise approved by Beneficiary in writing, all Property that consists of personal property (other than the Books and Records) will be located on the Land and all Books and Records for the portion of the Property owned by Trustor will be located at such Trustor’s place of business or chief executive office if such Trustor has more than one place of business.

5.17         Title Insurance.  At any time and from time to time at the reasonable request of Beneficiary, Trustor, at its sole cost and expense, shall deliver to Beneficiary such additional title insurance indorsements and reinsurance issued by title insurance companies, in form and substance and reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, with respect to this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation, CLTA 122 endorsements insuring that each advance is secured by this Deed of Trust (without any exception not set forth in the policy of title insurance insuring this Deed of Trust other than (i) liens for taxes and assessments not yet due and payable and (ii) other encumbrances, approved by the Beneficiary, insured to be subordinate to this Deed of Trust), and CLTA 101.4 endorsements insuring the priority of the Deed of Trust over any mechanic’s lien; provided that Trustor shall not be obligated under this Section 5.17 to increase the stated amount of the policy of title insurance insuring this Deed of Trust.

6.             Accelerating Transfers, Defaults and Remedies.

6.1           Accelerating Transfers.

6.1.1        “Accelerating Transfer” means any sale, contract to sell, conveyance, encumbrance, lease, alienation or further encumbrance of all or any material portion of the Property (or any interest in it) which is not expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement, or any other transfer of all or any material portion of the Property (or any interest in it), whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, unless Beneficiary has given its prior written consent to such “Accelerating Transfer,” which consent may be given or not given in the absolute discretion of Beneficiary.  If Trustor is a corporation or limited liability company, “Accelerating Transfer” also means any transfer of any share or shares in Trustor.  If Trustor is a partnership or limited liability company, “Accelerating Transfer” also means withdrawal or removal of any general partner or manager, as the case may be, dissolution of the

20

partnership or limited liability company under Nevada law, or any transfer of any partnership interest or any ownership interest in the limited liability company.

6.1.2        Trustor acknowledges that Beneficiary and the Lenders are making one or more advances under the Credit Agreement in reliance on the expertise, skill and experience of Trustor; thus, the Secured Obligations include material elements similar in nature to a personal service contract.  In consideration of Beneficiary’s reliance, Trustor agrees that Trustor shall not make any Accelerating Transfer, unless the transfer is preceded by Beneficiary’s written consent to the particular transaction and transferee.  Beneficiary may withhold such consent in its absolute discretion.  If any Accelerating Transfer occurs, Beneficiary may, in its absolute discretion (provided that it has received any consents or approvals of any other Lenders required under the Credit Agreement), declare all of the Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and Beneficiary and Trustee may invoke any rights and remedies provided by Section 6.3 of this Deed of Trust.

6.2           Events of Default.  Trustor will be in default under this Deed of Trust upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events (“Events of Default”):

(a)           Trustor fails to perform any obligation to pay money which arises under this Deed of Trust within two (2) Business Days after written demand therefor; or

(b)           Trustor fails to perform any other obligation arising under this Deed of Trust within ten (10) Business Days after the giving of written notice by Beneficiary of such failure; or

(c)           Trustor shall give to Beneficiary any notice under the provisions of Section 443.055 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri concerning future advances; or

(d)           Any Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document) occurs; or any other default occurs under any of the Secured Obligations.

6.3           Remedies.  At any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default (following the expiration of any applicable cure period) and provided that Beneficiary has received any consents or approvals of any other Lenders required under the Credit Agreement, Beneficiary and Trustee will be entitled to invoke any or all of the following rights and remedies (subject to any restrictions on those rights and remedies imposed by applicable Gaming Laws), all of which will be cumulative, and the exercise of any one or more of which shall not constitute an election of remedies:

6.3.1        Acceleration.  Beneficiary may declare any or all of the Secured Obligations to be due and payable immediately.

6.3.2        Receiver.  Beneficiary may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain appointment of, a receiver for the Property; and Beneficiary may request, in connection with any foreclosure proceeding hereunder, that the Missouri Gaming Commission petition a District Court of the State of Missouri for the appointment of a supervisor to conduct the normal gaming activities on the Property following such foreclosure proceeding.

21

6.3.3        Entry.  Beneficiary, in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver, may enter, take possession of, manage and operate all or any part of the Property, and may also do any and all other things in connection with those actions that Beneficiary may in its absolute discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Deed of Trust.  Such other things may include, without limitation:  taking and possessing all of Trustor’s or the then owner’s Books and Records; entering into, enforcing, modifying, or cancelling Leases on such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may consider proper; obtaining and evicting tenants; collecting and receiving any payment of money owing to Trustor; completing construction; and/or contracting for and making repairs and alterations.  If Beneficiary so requests, Trustor shall assemble all of the Property that has been removed from the Land and make all of it available to Beneficiary at the site of the Land.  Trustor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Beneficiary as Trustor’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) to perform such acts and execute such documents as Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Trustor’s name on any instruments.  Regardless of any provision of this Deed of Trust or the Credit Agreement, Beneficiary shall not be considered to have accepted any property other than cash or immediately available funds in satisfaction of any obligation of Trustor to Beneficiary unless Beneficiary has given express written notice of Beneficiary’s election of that remedy.

6.3.4        Cure; Protection of Security.  Either Beneficiary or Trustee may cure any breach or default of Trustor and, if it chooses to do so in connection with any such cure, Beneficiary or Trustee may (subject to applicable Gaming Laws) also enter the Property and/or do any and all other things which either may in its absolute discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Deed of Trust.  Such other things may include, without limitation:  appearing in and/or defending any action or proceeding which purports to affect the security of, or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee under, this Deed of Trust; paying, purchasing, contesting or compromising any encumbrance, charge, lien, security interest or claim of lien or security interest which (in Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s sole judgment) is or may be senior in priority to this Deed of Trust, such judgment of Beneficiary or Trustee to be conclusive as among the parties to this Deed of Trust; obtaining insurance and/or paying any premiums or charges for insurance required to be carried under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents; otherwise caring for and protecting any and all of the Property; and/or employing counsel, accountants, contractors and other appropriate Persons to assist Beneficiary or Trustee.  Beneficiary and Trustee may take any of the actions permitted under this Section 6.3.4 either with or without giving notice to any Person.

6.3.5        Uniform Commercial Code Remedies.  Subject to applicable Gaming Laws, Beneficiary may exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time.

6.3.6        Judicial Action.  Beneficiary may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to obtain specific enforcement of any of the covenants or other terms of this Deed of Trust.

6.3.7        Power of Sale.  Under the power of sale hereby granted, Beneficiary shall have the discretionary right to cause some or all of the Property, including any Property which constitutes personal property, to be sold or otherwise disposed of in any

22

combination and in any manner permitted by applicable law.  At Trustee’s option, Trustee may set the place of any such sale at any reasonable place, as permitted by Section 443.327 and any other applicable law of the Revised Statutes of Missouri, first giving notice of such sale in the manner prescribed by statute.  Trustee may in Trustee’s discretion set the time of any such sale at any commercially reasonable time, as permitted by Section 443.327 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri.

(a)           Sales of Personal Property.

(i)            For purposes of this power of sale, Beneficiary may elect to treat as personal property any Property which is intangible or which can be severed from the Land or Improvements without causing structural damage.  If it chooses to do so, Beneficiary may dispose of any personal property separately from the sale of real property, in any manner permitted by Article 9 of the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time, including any public or private sale, or in any manner permitted by any other applicable law.  Any proceeds of any such disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any Secured Obligation.

(ii)           In connection with any sale or other disposition of such Property, Trustor agrees that the following procedures constitute a commercially reasonable sale:  Beneficiary shall mail written notice of the sale to Trustor not later than ten (10) days prior to such sale.  Once per week during the three weeks immediately preceding such sale, Beneficiary will publish notice of the sale in a local daily newspaper of general circulation.  Upon receipt of any written request, Beneficiary will make the Property available to any bona fide prospective purchaser for inspection during reasonable business hours.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Beneficiary shall be under no obligation to consummate a sale if, in its judgment, none of the offers received by it equals the fair value of the Property offered for sale.  The foregoing procedures do not constitute the only procedures that may be commercially reasonable.

(b)           Trustee’s Sales of Real Property or Mixed Collateral.

(i)            Beneficiary may choose to dispose of some or all of the Property which consists solely of real property in any manner then permitted by applicable law.  In its discretion, Beneficiary may also or alternatively choose to dispose of some or all of the Property, in any combination consisting of both real and personal property, together in one sale to be held in accordance with the law and procedures applicable to real property, as permitted by Article 9 of the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time.  Trustor agrees that such a sale of personal property together with real property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of the personal property.  For purposes of this power of sale, either a sale of real property alone, or a sale of both real and personal property together in accordance with Article 9 of the Missouri Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time, will sometimes be referred to as a “Trustee’s Sale.”

23

(ii)           Before any Trustee’s Sale, Beneficiary or Trustee shall give such notice of default and election to sell as may then be required by law.  When all time periods then legally mandated have expired, and after such notice of sale as may then be legally required has been given, Trustee shall sell the property being sold at a public auction to be held at the time and place specified in the notice of sale, provided, however, that no sale or other disposition of slot machines or other gaming devices shall occur without first receiving the approval of the applicable Gaming Board.  Neither Trustee nor Beneficiary shall have any obligation to make demand on Trustor before any Trustee’s Sale.  From time to time in accordance with then applicable law, Trustee may, and in any event at Beneficiary’s request shall, postpone any Trustee’s Sale by public announcement at the time and place noticed for that sale.

(iii)          At any Trustee’s Sale, Trustee shall sell the property being sold at a public auction to the highest bidder at public auction for cash in lawful money of the United States.  Trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser(s) a deed or deeds conveying the property being sold without any covenant or warranty whatsoever, express or implied.  The recitals in any such deed of any matters or facts, including any facts bearing upon the regularity or validity of any Trustee’s Sale, shall be conclusive proof of their truthfulness.  Any such deed shall be conclusive against all Persons as to the facts recited in it.

6.3.8        Single or Multiple Foreclosure Sales.  If the Property consists of more than one lot, parcel or item of property, Beneficiary may:

(a)           Designate the order in which the lots, parcels and/or items shall be sold or disposed of or offered for sale or disposition; and

(b)           Elect to dispose of the lots, parcels and/or items through a single consolidated sale or disposition to be held or made under the power of sale granted in Sections 1.1 and 6.3.7, or in connection with judicial proceedings, or by virtue of a judgment and decree of foreclosure and sale; or through two or more such sales or dispositions; or in any other manner Beneficiary may deem to be in its best interests (any such sale or disposition being referred to herein as a “Foreclosure Sale”).

If Beneficiary chooses to have more than one Foreclosure Sale, Beneficiary at its option may cause the Foreclosure Sales to be held simultaneously or successively, on the same day, or on such different days and at such different times and in such order as Beneficiary may deem to be in its best interests.  No Foreclosure Sale shall terminate or affect the liens or security interests of this Deed of Trust on any part of the Property which has not been sold until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitment has been fully and finally terminated.

6.3.9        Other Permitted Remedies.  Beneficiary and the Lenders may refuse to make any advance to any Borrower or issue any Letter of Credit for the account of any Borrower.  Beneficiary and the Lenders may exercise any and all other rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents and applicable law, including, without limitation, the right to file applications to change, and to exercise all other rights and remedies available under

24

applicable law with respect to, all water permits and rights relating to the Property; provided however that, notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained in this Deed of Trust, the remedies provided by this Deed of Trust shall not include the right to take any action that violates applicable Gaming Laws.

6.4           Credit Bids.  At any Foreclosure Sale, any Person, including Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof to the extent permitted by then applicable law.  Instead of paying cash for such property, Beneficiary may settle for the purchase price by crediting against the sales price of the Property or any part thereof any or all of the outstanding Secured Obligations (including without limitation the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the expenses of sale, costs of any action and any other sums for which Trustor is obligated to pay or reimburse Beneficiary, the Lenders or Trustee under Section 5.11) in such order and proportions as Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may choose.

6.5           Application of Foreclosure Sale Proceeds.  Beneficiary and Trustee shall apply the proceeds of any Foreclosure Sale in the manner required by applicable law; provided that all proceeds that are to be applied against the Secured Obligations shall, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be applied against the Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may choose (subject to any applicable provisions for priority of application of proceeds set forth in either Credit Agreement).

6.6           Application of Rents and Other Sums.  Beneficiary shall apply any and all Rents collected by it, and any and all sums other than proceeds of a Foreclosure Sale which Beneficiary may receive or collect under Section 6.3, in the following manner:

(a)           First, to pay the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the costs and expenses of operation and collection that may be incurred by Trustee, Beneficiary or any receiver;

(b)           Second, to pay all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Beneficiary in its absolute discretion may choose (subject to any applicable provisions for priority of application of payments set forth in the Credit Agreement); and

(c)           Third, to remit the remainder, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled to it.  Beneficiary shall have no liability for any funds which it does not actually receive.

7.             Leasehold Mortgage Provisions.  The provisions of this Article 7 shall apply in the event that, and so long as, any portion of the Property consists of Trustor’s interests as tenant under any lease or leases (collectively, including the Operating Lease, the “Ground Leases”).  Unless otherwise expressly provided, the lien of this Deed of Trust shall encumber all of Trustor’s rights and interests under and in connection with any Ground Lease, including without limitation renewal and extension rights, options to expand, and purchase options (all of which rights shall be collectively referred to herein as a “Ground Leasehold”).  Trustor hereby agrees, with respect to each Ground Lease, as follows:

25

7.1           Trustor shall timely perform its obligations in connection with each Ground Lease.  Without limiting the generality of Section 6.3.4, above, Trustor specifically acknowledges Beneficiary’s right, while any default by Trustor under any Ground Lease remains uncured, to perform the defaulted obligations and take all other actions which Beneficiary deems necessary to protect its interests with respect thereto, and Trustor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary its true and lawful attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) in its name or otherwise to execute all documents, and perform all other acts, which Beneficiary reasonably deems necessary to preserve its or Trustor’s rights with respect to any Ground Lease.

7.2           Trustor shall not, without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, modify, or cause or permit the termination of, any Ground Lease, or waive or in any way release the landlord under any Ground Lease of or from any obligation or condition.

7.3           Trustor shall notify Beneficiary promptly in writing of (i) the occurrence of any default by the landlord under any Ground Lease and (ii) the receipt by Trustor of any notice claiming the occurrence of any default by Trustor under any Ground Lease or the occurrence of any event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a default by Trustor under any Ground Lease (and Trustor shall also promptly deliver a copy of any such notice to Beneficiary).

7.4           Unless Beneficiary otherwise consents in writing, so long as any Secured Obligation remains outstanding, neither the fee title to, nor any other estate or interest in, the real property subject to any Ground Lease shall merge with any Ground Leasehold, notwithstanding the union of such estates in the landlord or the tenant or in a third party.  Any acquisition of the landlord’s interest in any Ground Lease by Trustor or any affiliate of Trustor shall be accomplished in such a manner as to avoid a merger of the interests of landlord and tenant unless Beneficiary consents to such merger in writing.

7.5           If Trustor acquires fee title to any portion of the real property subject to any Ground Lease, this Deed of Trust shall automatically be a lien on such fee title.

7.6           Trustor shall not subordinate any Ground Lease or Ground Leasehold to any deed of trust or other encumbrance of, or lien on, any interest in the real property subject to such Ground Leasehold without the prior written consent of Beneficiary.  Any such subordination without such consent shall, at Beneficiary’s option, be void.

7.7           All subleases entered into by Trustor with respect to all or any portion of the Property (and all existing subleases modified by Trustor) shall provide that such subleases are subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust and any modifications of this Deed of Trust and the obligations secured hereby and that, if Beneficiary forecloses under this Deed of Trust or enters into a new lease with any landlord under any Ground Lease pursuant to the provisions for a new lease, if any, contained in the applicable Ground Lease or in any other document or agreement, the subtenant shall attorn to Beneficiary or its assignee and the sublease shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms notwithstanding the termination of the applicable Ground Lease.

26

7.8           Trustor shall exercise any option or right to renew or extend the term of any Ground Lease at least six months prior to the date of termination of any such option or right, shall give immediate written notice thereof to Beneficiary, and shall execute, deliver and record any documents requested by Beneficiary to evidence the lien of this Deed of Trust on such extended or renewed lease term.  If Trustor fails to exercise any such option or right as required herein, Beneficiary may exercise the option or right as Trustor’s agent and attorney-in-fact pursuant to this Deed of Trust, or in Beneficiary’s own name or in the name of and on behalf of a nominee of Beneficiary, as Beneficiary chooses in its absolute discretion.

7.9           As security for the Secured Obligations, Trustor hereby assigns to Beneficiary a security interest in all prepaid rents and security deposits and all other security which the landlords under the Ground Leases hold for the performance of Trustor’s obligations thereunder.

7.10         Promptly upon demand by Beneficiary, Trustor shall use reasonable efforts to obtain from the landlord under any Ground Lease and furnish to Beneficiary an estoppel certificate of such landlord stating the date through which rent has been paid, whether or not there are any defaults, and the specific nature of any claimed defaults.

7.11         Trustor shall notify Beneficiary promptly in writing of any request by either party to any Ground Lease for arbitration, appraisal or other proceedings relating to any Ground Lease and of the institution of any such proceeding, and shall promptly deliver to Beneficiary a copy of all determinations in any such proceeding.  Beneficiary shall have the right, following written notice to Trustor, to participate in any such proceeding in association with Trustor or on its own behalf as an interested party.  Trustor shall notify Beneficiary promptly in writing of the institution of any legal proceeding involving obligations under any Ground Lease, and Beneficiary may intervene in any such legal proceeding and be made a party.  Trustor shall promptly provide Beneficiary with a copy of any decision rendered in connection with any such proceeding.

7.12         To the extent permitted by law, the price payable by Trustor or any other party in the exercise of the right of redemption, if any, from any sale under, or decree of foreclosure of, this Deed of Trust shall include all rents and other amounts paid and other sums advanced by Beneficiary on behalf of Trustor as the tenant under the Ground Leases.

7.13         In addition to all other Events of Default described in this Deed of Trust, the occurrence of any of the following shall be an Event of Default hereunder:

(a)           A breach or default by Trustor under any Ground Lease, subject to any applicable cure period; or

(b)           The occurrence of any event or circumstance which gives the landlord under any Ground Lease a right to terminate such Ground Lease.

7.14         As used in this Deed of Trust, the “Bankruptcy Code” shall mean 11 U.S.C. § 101 et seq., as modified and/or recodified from time to time.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein with respect to any Ground Lease:

27

(a)           The lien of this Deed of Trust attaches to all of Trustor’s rights under Subsection 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation any and all elections to be made thereunder, any and all rights under any Ground Lease which Trustor is entitled to retain pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(A)(ii) in the event of a rejection under the Bankruptcy Code of such Ground Lease by the landlord thereunder (or any trustee thereof), and any and all rights of offset under or as described in 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(B).

(b)           Trustor acknowledges and agrees that, as the beneficiary under this Deed of Trust and by operation of 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(D), Beneficiary has, and until this Deed of Trust has been fully reconveyed continuously shall have, whether before or after any default under any of the Secured Obligations or the taking of any action to enforce any of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust or any foreclosure sale hereunder, the complete, unfettered and exclusive right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to elect (the “365(h) Election”) whether (i) any Ground Lease that has been rejected under the Bankruptcy Code by the landlord thereunder (or any trustee therefor) shall be treated as terminated under 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(A)(i), or (ii) the rights under such Ground Lease that are in or appurtenant to the real property, as described in 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(A)(ii), should be retained pursuant to that subsection.  To the extent that, notwithstanding the preceding sentence and 11 U.S.C. § 365(h)(1)(D), Trustor now or at any time in the future has any right to make, or to participate in or otherwise in any manner affect the making of, the 365(h) Election with respect to any Ground Lease, Trustor hereby absolutely assigns and conveys to Beneficiary any and all such rights, and all of Trustor’s right, title, and interest therein, which may be used and exercised by Beneficiary completely, exclusively, and without any restriction whatsoever, in Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion, whether before or after any default upon any of the Secured Obligations, the taking of any action to enforce any of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust, or any foreclosure sale hereunder.  Trustor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact to exercise Trustor’s right, if any, to make, or participate in or otherwise in any matter affect the making of, the 365(h) Election with respect to any Ground Lease.  Trustor shall not in any manner impede or interfere with any action taken by Beneficiary and, at the request of Beneficiary, Trustor shall take or join in the taking of any action to make, or participate in or otherwise in any manner affect the making of, the 365(h) Election with respect to any Ground Lease, in such manner as Beneficiary determines in its sole and absolute discretion.  Unless and until instructed to do so by Beneficiary (as determined by Beneficiary in its sole and absolute discretion), Trustor shall not take any action to make, or participate in or otherwise in any manner affect the making of, the 365(h) Election with respect to any Ground Lease, including in particular, but without limitation, any election to treat any Ground Lease as terminated.  Beneficiary shall have no obligation whatsoever to Trustor or any other person or entity in connection with the making of the 365(h) Election with respect to any Ground Lease or any instruction by Beneficiary to Trustor given, withheld or delayed in respect thereof, nor shall Beneficiary have any liability to Trustor or any other person or entity arising from any of the same.

(c)           As security for the Secured Obligations, Trustor hereby irrevocably assigns to Beneficiary all of Trustor’s rights to damages arising from any

28

rejection by any landlord (or any trustee thereof) of any Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code.  Beneficiary and Trustor shall proceed jointly or in the name of Trustor in respect of any claim or proceeding relating to the rejection of any Ground Lease, including without limitation the right to file and prosecute any proofs of claim, complaints, motions and other documents in any case in respect of such landlord under the Bankruptcy Code.  This assignment shall continue in effect until all of the Secured Obligations have been satisfied in full.  Any amounts received by Beneficiary or Trustor as damages arising from the rejection of any Ground Lease as aforesaid shall be applied first to all costs reasonably incurred by Beneficiary (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with this subsection (c) and then in accordance with other applicable provisions of this Deed of Trust.

(d)           If, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, Trustor seeks to offset against the rent reserved in any Ground Lease the amount of any damages caused by the nonperformance of the landlord’s obligations after the rejection by the landlord (or any trustee thereof) of such Ground Lease, Trustor shall, prior to effecting such offset, notify Beneficiary in writing of its intent to do so, setting forth the amounts proposed to be offset and, in the event that Beneficiary objects, Trustor shall not effect any offset of the amounts to which Beneficiary objects.  If Beneficiary fails to object within 10 days following receipt of such notice, Trustor may offset the amounts set forth in Trustor’s notice.

(e)           If any legal proceeding is commenced with respect to any Ground Lease in connection with any case under the Bankruptcy Code, Beneficiary and Trustor shall cooperatively conduct any such proceeding with counsel reasonably agreed upon between Trustor and Beneficiary.  Trustor shall, upon demand, pay to Beneficiary all costs (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by Beneficiary in connection with any such proceeding.

(f)            Trustor shall immediately notify Beneficiary orally upon learning of any filing by or against any landlord of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code.  Trustor shall thereafter promptly give written notice of such filing to Beneficiary, setting forth any information available to Trustor with respect to the date of such filing, the court in which such petition was filed, and the relief sought therein.  Trustor shall promptly deliver to Beneficiary all notices, pleadings and other documents received by Trustor in connection with any such proceeding.

7.15         No maintenance, repair or other obligation of Trustor hereunder which relates to the “Property” shall apply to any Ground Leasehold with respect to which the applicable Ground Lease imposes such obligation on the landlord so long as (a) Trustor does not own the landlord’s interest; (b) such landlord is performing such obligation in accordance with the terms of such Ground Lease; and (c) the Ground Lease has not been rejected by the landlord (or any trustee thereof) under the Bankruptcy Code.

7.16         The generality of the provisions of this Deed of Trust shall not be limited by any provision of this Article 7 that sets forth particular obligations of Trustor as the tenant under the Ground Leases.

29

7.17         Trustor hereby represents and warrants to Beneficiary as follows:

(a)           The Operating Lease is in full force and effect;

(b)           Trustor owns the entire tenant’s interest under the Operating Lease and has the right under the Operating Lease to execute this Deed of Trust; and

(c)           No default under the Operating Lease remains uncured, nor has any event occurred which, with the passage of time or service of notice or both, would constitute such a default.

8.             Miscellaneous Provisions.

8.1           Additional Provisions.  The Loan Documents fully state all of the terms and conditions of the parties’ agreement regarding the matters mentioned in or incidental to this Deed of Trust.  The Loan Documents also grant further rights to Beneficiary and contain further agreements and affirmative and negative covenants by Trustor which apply to this Deed of Trust and to the Property.

8.2           No Waiver or Cure.

8.2.1        Each waiver by Beneficiary or Trustee must be in writing, and no waiver shall be construed as a continuing waiver.  No waiver shall be implied from any delay or failure by Beneficiary or Trustee to take action on account of any default of Trustor.  Consent by Beneficiary or Trustee to any act or omission by Trustor shall not be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission or to waive the requirement for Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s consent to be obtained in any future or other instance.

8.3.1        Trustee shall have no obligation to perform any act which it is empowered to perform under this Deed of Trust unless it is requested to do so in writing and is reasonably indemnified against loss, cost, liability and expense.

8.3.2        If either Beneficiary or any Lender or Trustee performs any act which it is empowered or authorized to perform under this Deed of Trust, including any act permitted by Section 5.9 or Section 6.3.4, that act alone shall not release or change the personal liability of any Person for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations then outstanding, or the lien or security interest of this Deed of Trust on all or the remainder of the Property for full payment and performance of all outstanding Secured Obligations.  The liability of the original Trustor shall not be released or changed if Beneficiary or any Lender grants any successor in interest to any Borrower or Trustor any extension of time for payment, or modification of the terms of payment, of any Secured Obligation.  Neither Beneficiary nor any Lender shall be required to comply with any demand by any original Trustor or Borrower that Beneficiary or such Lender refuse to grant such an extension or modification to, or commence proceedings against, any such successor in interest

8.3.3        Beneficiary may take any of the actions permitted under Sections 6.3.2 and/or 6.3.3 regardless of the adequacy of the security for the Secured Obligations, or whether any or all of the Secured Obligations have been declared to be immediately due and payable, or whether notice of default and election to sell has been given under this Deed of Trust.

8.3.4        From time to time, Beneficiary or Trustee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for aid and direction in executing the trust and enforcing the rights and remedies created under this Deed of Trust.  Beneficiary or Trustee may from time to time obtain orders or decrees directing, confirming or approving acts in executing this trust and enforcing these rights and remedies.

8.5           Applicable Law.  This Deed of Trust shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri.

31

8.6           Successors in Interest.  The terms, covenants and conditions of this Deed of Trust shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties.  However, this Section 8.6 does not waive the provisions of Section 6.1.

8.7           Interpretation.

8.7.1        Whenever the context requires, all words used in the singular will be construed to have been used in the plural, and vice versa, and each gender will include any other gender.  The captions of the sections of this Deed of Trust are for convenience only and do not define or limit any terms or provisions.  The word “include(s)” means “include(s), without limitation,” and the word “including” means “including, but not limited to.”

8.9           Waiver of Marshalling.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor waives all rights, legal and equitable, it may now or hereafter have to require marshalling of assets or to require foreclosure sales of assets in a particular order.  Each successor and assign of Trustor, including any holder of a lien or security interest subordinate to this Deed of Trust, by acceptance of its interest or lien or security interest, agrees that it shall be bound by the above waiver, as if it had given the waiver itself.

8.10         Severability.  Any provision in this Deed of Trust that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid as to any party or in any jurisdiction shall, as to that party or jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions or the operation, enforceability or validity of that provision as to any other party or in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Deed of Trust are declared to be severable.
