12.1         Surrender on Termination:  Upon termination of this Lease for any cause, subject to Section 11.2B of this Lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord, without delay, in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted.  Upon such termination of this Lease at the end of the Term, at Landlord’s option, Landlord shall (a) acquire the Improvements at Tenant’s actual, non-depreciated cost, upon payment of which title to the Improvements on the Premises shall automatically vest in Landlord without the execution of any further instrument, or (b) require that Tenant remove the Improvements, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in which event Tenant, within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord that Landlord does not intend to acquire the Improvements, shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant intends to complete such demolition and removal.  If Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant intends to complete such demolition and removal, Tenant shall have a period, not to exceed ninety (90) days after the end of the Lease term, in which post-lease period no Rent or other sums shall be due from Tenant under this Lease, to complete such demolition and removal.  If Tenant demolishes the Improvements, all salvage shall belong to Tenant and without any obligation to repair or restore the Improvements or to reimburse Landlord for the cost or value of the Improvements so demolished; provided, however, that title to such Improvements existing on the Premises on the date which is ninety (90) days after the end of the Lease Term shall vest in Landlord and the same shall become the property of Landlord without notice or execution of further instruments and without cost, expense or obligation of any kind or nature to Landlord or Tenant.  If Tenant demolishes the Improvements, Tenant shall clear all demolition debris from the Premises, repair damage caused during the demolition activity and level grade the Premises.  If Tenant notifies Landlord prior to the end of the sixty (60) day notice period set forth in this Section 12.1 that Tenant does not intend to demolish the Improvements, title to such Improvements existing on the Premises at the end of the Lease Term shall vest in Landlord and the same shall become the property of Landlord without notice or execution of further instruments and without cost, expense or

25

obligation of any kind or nature to Landlord or Tenant.  In no event shall the provisions hereof impose any obligation upon Tenant to replace Improvements that are demolished or removed or to restore and/or reconstruct Improvements following any damage or condemnation unless Tenant is required to do so by Article 9 or Article 10.

12.2         Recognition of Tenant’s Subtenants:  If this Lease is terminated for any reason prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, Tenant shall assign to Landlord all of Tenant’s rights in and to any subleases affecting the Property and Landlord shall recognize all subtenants of Tenant who are not then in Default under the terms of their respective subleases as provided in Section 13.3.

12.3         Removal of Trade Fixtures:  Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant may remove or cause to be removed all Trade Fixtures installed in the Improvements and all personal property of Tenant.  If, during the removal of any Trade Fixtures from the Improvements, the Premises is damaged, Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises caused thereby.  Any Trade fixtures that are not removed from the Improvements within six (6) months after the date of any termination of this Lease shall thereafter shall belong to Landlord without the payment of any consideration.

12.4         Tenant’s Quitclaim:  Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or any sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a proper instrument in writing, releasing and quitclaiming to Landlord all right, title and interest of Tenant in and to the Premises and the Improvements and personal property of Tenant, if any, remaining on the Premises at the later of the end of the Lease Term or the expiration of the post-lease term demolition and removal period as may be applicable pursuant to Section 12.1 above.

ARTICLE 13

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

13.1         Assignment by Tenant:  Tenant shall have the following rights to assign or otherwise transfer Tenant’s Estate:

A.            Tenant shall have the absolute right to assign or otherwise transfer all or part of Tenant’s Estate so long as the assigning Tenant and its assignee both agree to become personally liable for the full and faithful performance of the Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and the assignee acquires all necessary licenses to continue the gaming operation then being conducted on the Premises.

B.            Tenant shall also have the right to assign or other-wise transfer all or part of Tenant’s Estate to (i) any person(s) or entity(s) with the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or (ii) a “Permitted Assignee” (as defined below) without Landlord’s consent.  If Tenant so assigns or transfers Tenant’s Estate pursuant to this Section 13.1B, then Tenant shall be released from all further liability under this Lease arising or accruing after the effective date of such assignment.

26

C.            No assignment or transfer by Tenant pursuant to this Section 13.1 shall be effective unless (i) Tenant shall have given Landlord reasonable notice of the proposed assignment or transfer and, if applicable, appropriate documentation as evidence that the proposed assignee or transferee qualifies as a Permitted Assignee, and (ii) the proposed assignee or transferee shall have agreed in writing to assume and perform all obligations of Tenant under this Lease arising after the date of transfer.

13.2         Permitted Assignee Defined:  As used herein, the term “Permitted Assignee” shall mean (i) any Affiliate of Tenant, or (ii) any person or entity whose tangible net worth on the date of assignment (computed according to generally accepted accounting principles) is greater than the then equivalent (adjusted for changes in the purchasing power of the dollar during the Lease Term) of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) in 1993.

13.3         Subletting:  Tenant shall have the absolute and unrestricted right to sublease all or any part of the Property during the Lease Term to any person(s) or entity(s) for uses consistent with the uses permitted by this Lease, and Landlord shall recognize the rights of each such person or entity under its respective sublease so long as it is not in default under such sublease: provided, however, that no sublease to a subtenant to conduct Gaming Operations at the Property may be made without Landlord’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  No sublease shall release Tenant from primary liability for all obligations of Tenant under this Lease.  Upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall execute with each such subtenant a recognition and non-disturbance agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to Tenant in substance providing that in the event this Lease is terminated, Landlord will recognize the rights of such subtenant under its sublease so long as such subtenant is not in default, all so long as each of the following is satisfied:

A.            The term of the sublease does not exceed the Lease Term, as it may be extended;

B.            The sublease contains a provision reasonably satisfactory to Landlord requiring the subtenant to attorn to (and pay sublease rent to) Landlord if Tenant defaults under this Lease; and

C.            Tenant shall have submitted to landlord a true copy of the sublease.

ARTICLE 14

TRANSFER OF PREMISES BY LANDLORD

14.1         Transfer by Landlord:  Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section, to the right of first refusal of Tenant set forth in Section 14.2, and to Tenant’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Landlord may assign and transfer all of Landlord’s Estate at any time during the Lease Term, but only if such assignee shall have (A) currently in force all licenses, permits and approvals (including, without limitation, gaming licenses and liquor licenses) required for Tenant’s

27

uninterrupted use, operation, possession and occupancy of the Property in Tenant’s then-current manner and Tenant’s exercise of all its rights and privileges under this Lease, and (B) by written agreement, agreed to (i) recognize Tenant under this Lease, (ii) assume the obligations of Landlord imposed herein, and (iii) be bound by each and every term hereof, including, without limitation, the terms of Section 14.2 whereby Tenant has a continuing right of first refusal to purchase Landlord’s Estate.  In no event shall Landlord have the right to transfer or otherwise assign (a) less than all of Landlord’s Estate without Tenant’s prior written consent, which consent may be refused in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion, and any such transfer without Tenant’s consent shall be voidable by Tenant, or (b) any right, title or interest in Landlord’s Estate if such transfer or assignment would, directly or indirectly, impair, suspend, increase the cost of or otherwise interfere with Tenant’s possession, occupancy, use or operation of the Property to any extent; whether in its then-current manner or in any other manner permitted under this Lease (including, without limitation, any transfer or assignment to any person or entity that does not then hold all full, final, properly issued and valid licenses required of such person or entity to permit Tenant’s Gaming Operations from and at the Property).

14.2         Tenant’s Right of First Refusal:  If at any time during the Lease Term (as the same may be extended), Landlord shall desire to transfer Landlord’s Estate, then Landlord shall first offer to Tenant the opportunity to purchase Landlord’s Estate by giving Tenant written notice of the terms upon which it would be willing to sell Landlord’s Estate (“Landlord’s First Offer”).  Tenant shall have the exclusive right to purchase Landlord’s Estate upon the terms and conditions stated in Landlord’s First Offer, which Tenant may exercise only by giving written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of said right within thirty (30) days following the date of receipt by Tenant of Landlord’s First Offer.  If Tenant timely exercises its right, it shall purchase Landlord’s Estate on the terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s First Offer.  However, in the event Tenant does not so accept Landlord’s First Offer within said thirty (30) day period, then Landlord may sell Landlord’s Estate to any third party for the same purchase price contained in Landlord’s First Offer and otherwise on the same terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s First Offer so long as such sale and transfer is consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after delivery to Tenant of Landlord’s First Offer.  If, within said one hundred twenty day (120) period, Landlord receives a bona fide offer from a third party to purchase Landlord’s Estate for a price less than that contained in Landlord’s First Offer, or Landlord shall receive a bona fide offer from a third party to purchase Landlord’s Estate for the price contained in Landlord’s First Offer and not otherwise on the same terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s First Offer and Landlord desires to accept such offer, then Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant setting forth the terms of such offer and the fact that Landlord is willing to accept such offer (“Landlord’s Second Notice”).  Tenant shall have the right to purchase Landlord’s Estate at the price and upon the terms and conditions stated in Landlord’s Second Notice exercisable by giving written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of such right within fifteen (15) days following the day that Tenant receives Landlord’s Second Notice.  In the event that Tenant shall elect to so purchase Landlord’s Estate, then it shall do so upon the terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Second Notice.  If Tenant does not notify Landlord of its agreement to purchase Landlord’s Estate upon such terms within said fifteen (15) day period, then Landlord may sell Landlord’s Estate to any third party

28

in strict accordance with the terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Second Notice.  If Landlord’s Estate has not been sold and transferred after one hundred twenty (120) days have passed since Tenant shall have received Landlord’s First Offer, then any election by Landlord to assign and sell Landlord’s Estate shall be deemed a new determination to do so and shall be subject to all of the procedures set forth in this Section.  Notwithstanding the election of Tenant not to exercise the right of first refusal contained in this Section, the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to any successor in interest of Landlord.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the provision of this Section 14.2 shall not apply to any transfer among the members of Landlord existing on the Execution Date or the transfer by such members to any family trust or Limited Liability Company permitted by the terms of Operating Agreement of the Landlord in effect on the Execution Date so long as the rights granted to Tenant in such Operating Agreement are adhered to.

ARTICLE 15

LEASEHOLD MORTGAGES

15.1         Right to Encumber Tenant’s Estate:  Tenant may at any time and from time to time during the Lease Term encumber Tenant’s Estate by one or more mortgages, deeds of trust or other proper instruments as security for the repayment of such loan(s) as Tenant may desire, without having Landlord consent to or join in the execution of such instrument.  Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that as of the Effective Date, there are no Leasehold Mortgages recorded against the Improvements or Tenant’s interest in the Prior Lease.  Any such encumbrance shall be referred to herein as a “Leasehold Mortgage”, and the holder of any Leasehold Mortgage shall be referred to as a “Leasehold Mortgagee”.  Immediately following settlement on such financing, Landlord shall give Tenant a copy of any mortgage or other security document recorded or filed against the Initial Acquisition Property and/or the Premises or any part thereof.  Any Leasehold Mortgage shall be subject to all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.  Any Leasehold Mortgage shall provide that the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all of the rights of Landlord under this Lease in the event the Leasehold Mortgagee cures a default by Tenant.  If Leasehold Mortgagee does not cure a default by Tenant under this Lease and as a result of such default, this Lease is terminated by Landlord, or in the event Tenant shall terminate this Lease in accordance with any specific right to do so under this Lease, Leasehold Mortgagee acknowledges and agrees that neither the Landlord nor the Premises shall be liable for nor shall title to the Premises be affected by the lien of the Leasehold Mortgagee from and after the effective date of any such termination.

B.            Any Leasehold Mortgage shall include the following provisions:

(i)            The Leasehold Mortgagee shall specifically acknowledge that insurance proceeds received in the event of any damage to the Premises shall be applied as provided in Section 9.4(C) of this Lease.

29

(ii)           The Leasehold Mortgagee shall provide to Landlord a copy of any notice of default delivered to Tenant under the applicable Leasehold Mortgage.

15.2         Notice:  Tenant shall give written notice of any Leasehold Mortgage to Landlord and shall forward to Landlord a copy of any instrument evidencing such Leasehold Mortgage along with copies of all other loan documents recorded against Tenant’s leasehold interest within thirty (30) days after the recording thereof.  Tenant shall include with such written notice the address of the Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee to which copies of notices should be mailed.  After having been notified of the existence of a Leasehold Mortgage, Landlord shall deliver to the Leasehold Mortgagee thereunder or its designee at such address a duplicate copy of all notices delivered by Landlord to Tenant under the terms of this Lease.  Such duplicate copies shall be delivered to the Leasehold Mortgagee concurrently with the delivery of the notices to Tenant.

15.3         Leasehold Mortgagee’s Rights and Obligations Prior to Foreclosure:  Any Leasehold Mortgagee may, but shall not be required to unless and until the Leasehold Mortgage is foreclosed, pay any of the rent due under this Lease, procure and maintain any insurance, pay any Impositions, make any repairs or improvements, and do any other act required of Tenant by the terms of this Lease in order to cure a default of Tenant, prevent a forfeiture of the Lease, or otherwise protect its security interest in Tenant’s Estate.  In this regard, the Leasehold Mortgagee, pursuant to the terms of its Leasehold Mortgage and for purposes of protecting its security interest in Tenant’s Estate, may enter into possession of the Property, collect rents due from subtenants of Tenant, and otherwise perform such acts as the Leasehold Mortgagee may deem necessary to so protect its security.  Any such payment or act by the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be as effective hereunder as if done by Tenant, and may be done by the Leasehold Mortgagee without assuming the obligations of Tenant under this Lease and without causing a default under this Lease, and Landlord shall accept such payment or act by or at the instance of any Leasehold Mortgagee as if the same had been made by Tenant.  Subject to compliance by a Leasehold Mortgagee with the provisions of Section 15.4, no default shall be deemed to exist under this Lease if proceedings shall in good faith have been commenced by the Leasehold Mortgagee to rectify Tenant’s default and such proceedings are prosecuted by the Leasehold Mortgagee to completion with diligence and continuity.

15.4         Termination.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord may terminate this Lease because of a default hereunder only after Landlord has delivered to each Leasehold Mortgagee a written notice specifying such default and:

(a)           Such default is a failure by Tenant to pay any funds to Landlord or its nominee, successor or assigns, and no Leasehold Mortgagee cures such default within sixty (60) days after the expiration of Tenant’s cure period; or

(b)           In the event of any other default hereunder susceptible to being cured by a Leasehold Mortgagee, no Leasehold Mortgagee commences within sixty (60) days after the expiration of Tenant’s cure period the work of curing such default and

30

carrying same to completion with all reasonable dispatch.  If such default cannot be cured by a Leasehold Mortgagee without such Leasehold Mortgagee obtaining possession of the Property or title to Tenant’s Estate, a Leasehold Mortgagee commencing and thereafter pursuing to completion proceedings to obtain possession and/or to foreclose the lien held by such Leasehold Mortgagee or diligently proceeding to obtain title to Tenant’s Estate by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing requirement that such Leasehold Mortgagee commences within thirty (30) days after obtaining such possession or such title the work of curing such default and carries the same to completion with all reasonable dispatch; or

(c)           In the event of a default of this Lease that is not susceptible to being cured by a Leasehold Mortgagee, such default shall be deemed to be cured if within one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of Tenant’s cure period, a Leasehold Mortgagee shall have commenced foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof and such Leasehold Mortgagee shall thereafter diligently prosecute such proceedings to completion; or

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 15.4, if a Leasehold Mortgagee has not cured any default within the time periods prescribed above, Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease shall be suspended so long as the following are true:

(i)            the Leasehold Mortgagee is proceeding diligently pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 15.4; and

(ii)           Landlord is receiving rental payments hereunder either as a result of such Leasehold Mortgagee continuing the minimum Gaming Operations as provided in Section 5.4 above or, if such Leasehold Mortgagee is not legally able under Mississippi Gaming Commission regulations to continue such minimum Gaming Operations at the Premises, such Leasehold Mortgagee pays to Landlord monthly Rent in an amount equal to the average monthly Rent paid under this Lease for the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the Event of Default by Tenant.

(e)           Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require any Leasehold Mortgagee to continue with such foreclosure or any other proceedings, or once having obtained possession of the Property to continue in possession thereof, but the failure of a Leasehold Mortgagee to pay make rental payments as provided in this Lease shall give Landlord the right to exercise its remedy rights under this Lease.

15.5         Leasehold Mortgagee’s Rights and Obligations following a Foreclosure:  Should a Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee acquire Tenant’s Estate as a result of a foreclosure, a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or a sale under a Leasehold Mortgage pursuant to a power of sale contained therein, such Leasehold Mortgagee or designee shall acquire Tenant’s Estate subject to all of the provisions of this Lease (specifically including options to purchase, rights of first refusal and the provisions of this Article 15); provided, however that such Leasehold Mortgagee or designee shall have no liability under this Lease except during such time as it owns Tenant’s Estate and only

31

with respect to any loss, damage, injury or liability resulting from its own (i) negligence, (ii) willful misconduct, or (iii) act or omission constituting a breach under this Lease.

15.6         Non-Liability of Leasehold Mortgagee:  Except as may be required by a Leasehold Mortgagee pursuant to Section 15.4 above in order to maintain the Lease in full force and effect, a Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be obligated to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease unless and until the Leasehold Mortgagee acquires Tenant’s Estate by foreclosure or other similar proceedings.

15.7         No Restriction on Assignment:  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, this Lease may be transferred or assigned without Landlord’s consent as a result of a foreclosure, a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or a sale under the Leasehold Mortgage pursuant to a power of sale contained therein.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.1, if a Leasehold Mortgagee or any other person acquires Tenant’s Estate as a result of a sale under the Leasehold Mortgage pursuant to a power of sale contained therein, a judgment of foreclosure, or by deed or other instrument in lieu of foreclosure, such Leasehold Mortgagee or other person shall have the privilege of assigning or transferring Tenant’s Estate to any other person(s) or entity(s) without the prior consent of Landlord, provided, however, that there shall be delivered to Landlord in due form for recording (i) a duplicate original of the instrument of assignment, and (ii) an instrument of assumption by the transferee of all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, and the Leasehold Mortgagee or other person who so acquired Tenant’s Estate through foreclosure proceedings shall be relieved of any further liability under the Lease from and after the effective date of such transfer.

15.8         New Lease:  Upon termination of this Lease by Landlord on Tenant’s default hereunder, or upon a Leasehold Mortgagee’s acquisition of Tenant’s Estate by way of foreclosure or otherwise, at any Leasehold Mortgagee’s request given within sixty (60) days of such termination or acquisition Landlord shall enter into a new lease of the Premises with such Leasehold Mortgagee, effective as of the date of such termination or acquisition (but with the same relative priority as this Lease with regard to encumbrances on the Premises) for the remainder of the Lease Term and at the same Rent and upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease (including the option to purchase and right of first refusal set forth herein); provided, however, that the tenant under such lease shall have the right to assign its interest in such lease on the terms set forth in Section 15.7 hereof.  The Leasehold Mortgagee shall pay all costs, fees, expenses and legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the execution of such new lease.  Following the termination of this Lease by Landlord on Tenant’s default and until each Leasehold Mortgagee has failed within sixty (60) days to demand a new lease, Landlord shall not alter or in any way demolish any Improvements on the Property, nor modify or terminate any subleases. At the time of the execution and delivery of any new lease pursuant to this Section 15.8, Landlord shall execute and deliver to the party executing such new lease as the tenant, a quit claim grant deed to the improvements, if any, on the Property that are the property of Landlord and a quit claim bill of sale to the furnishings, fixtures, furniture, equipment, and personal property thereon, if any, that are the property of Landlord, both of which documents shall be effective as of the effective date of such new lease.  Concurrent with the delivery of such quit claim grant deed and the quit claim bill

32

of sale, Landlord shall deliver to the new tenant under such new lease an assignment of Landlord’s rights under all subleases and sub-subleases affecting any portion of the Property and memorandum of such new lease in recordable form.  In the event that a nominee or designee of any Leasehold Mortgagee shall be the tenant under such new lease, such designee or nominee shall, at its election, have the right to continue its lien against such new lease and the improvements located on the Property as well as all fixtures and personal property located thereon to secure payment of its then existing outstanding indebtedness.

15.9         Covenant of Cooperation:  Landlord covenants and agrees to execute any documents reasonably required by any lender making a Leasehold Mortgage to effectuate the foregoing so long as Landlord assumes no liability whatsoever thereunder and this Lease shall remain prior to any such Leasehold Mortgage.

15.10       No Amendment:  So long as any Leasehold Mortgage is in effect and Landlord has been given notice of its existence, then this Lease will not be voluntarily canceled, surrendered, terminated, amended, modified or in any manner altered, or any provision hereof waived or deferred by Tenant, without the prior written consent of all Leasehold Mortgagees (except as otherwise provided or permitted under their respective Leasehold Mortgages).  Landlord and Tenant covenant and agree to cooperate in including in this Lease by suitable amendment, from time to time, any provision which may reasonably be requested by any proposed Leasehold Mortgagee for the purpose of implementing the mortgagee protection provisions contained in this Lease and allowing such Leasehold Mortgagee reasonable means to protect or preserve the lien of the Leasehold Mortgage on the occurrence of a default by Tenant hereunder.  Landlord and Tenant each agree to execute and deliver (and to acknowledge, if necessary, for recording purposes) any document necessary to effect any such amendment; provided, however, that any such amendment shall in no event affect the term or rent under this Lease or otherwise adversely affect any rights of Landlord or Tenant hereunder in any material respect.

15.11       No Merger:  So long as there is a Leasehold Mortgage in effect, Tenant’s Estate will not merge with Landlord’s Estate by reason of the fact that (i) Tenant’s Estate is acquired by Landlord, or (ii) Landlord’s Estate is acquired by Tenant.

15.12       Certain Obligations of Leasehold Mortgagee in Possession.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, after any party who is a Leasehold Mortgagee has obtained or holds title to this Lease or possession of the Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, then no requirement or covenant contained in this Lease requiring Tenant for any purpose to post a bond or provide any other security shall be applicable or enforceable against any such party.

15.13       Designees and Nominees:  All references in this Lease to a mortgagee or beneficiary under a deed or trust or a Leasehold Mortgagee shall be construed to also refer to any such mortgagee’s, beneficiary’s or Leasehold Mortgagee’s designee or nominee.

33

15.14       Tenant’s Rejection of Lease in Bankruptcy:  If Tenant shall reject this Lease pursuant to Section 365 (a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 365(a), then Landlord shall serve on each Leasehold Mortgagee written notice of such rejection, together with a statement of all sums at the time due under this Lease (without giving effect to any acceleration), and of all other defaults under this Lease then known to Landlord (the “Rejection Notice”).  Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve on Landlord within twenty (20) days after service of the Rejection Notice a notice (the “Assumption Notice”) that the Leasehold Mortgagee elects to (a) assume this Lease and (b) cure all defaults outstanding thereunder (x) in accordance with Section 15.4(a) of this Lease as to defaults in the payment of money, and (y) in accordance with Sections 15.4(b), (c) or (d) of this Lease as to other defaults; provided, that Leasehold Mortgagee’s failure to give an Assumption Notice within said twenty (20) day period shall be deemed to be Leasehold Mortgagee’s election not to assume this Lease; provided further, that in the event that the cure periods set forth in Section 15.4 would give to Leasehold Mortgagee less than thirty (30) days from the receipt by Leasehold Mortgagee of such Rejection Notice to make or commence such cure, then Leasehold Mortgagee shall have thirty (30) days from receipt by Leasehold Mortgagee from Landlord of such Rejection Notice to cure defaults described in Section 15.4(a) and to commence the cure of non-monetary defaults described in Sections 15.4(b), (c) and (d) and complete such cures in accordance with such Section (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Cure Periods”).  If Leasehold Mortgagee serves the Assumption Notice, then, as between the Landlord and Leasehold Mortgagee (1) the rejection of the Lease by Tenant shall not constitute a termination of this Lease, (2) the Leasehold Mortgagee assumes the obligations of Tenant under this Lease without any instrument of assignment or transfer from the Tenant and (3) Leasehold Mortgagee shall consummate the assumption of the Lease by curing all defaults (susceptible of being cured by Leasehold Mortgagee) under the Lease by outstanding as of the date of rejection or arising or accruing from such date to the date of assumption in accordance with the bankruptcy cure Periods.  Tenant acknowledges that in the event Leasehold Mortgagee serves the Assumption Notice, then the Leasehold Mortgagee’s rights under this Lease following an assumption of the Lease by Leasehold Mortgagee shall be free and clear of all rights, claims and encumbrances of or in respect of Tenant.

The above notwithstanding, in the event that Landlord fails to give Leasehold Mortgagee the Rejection Notice, Landlord shall have no liability to Leasehold Mortgagee or Tenant under this Lease or otherwise for such failure to give the Rejection Notice or any consequences resulting therefrom, and such failure shall not constitute or be deemed to be a breach hereof or a default hereunder.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease, if Tenant shall have rejected this Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 365(a), then as between Landlord and Leasehold Mortgagee this Lease shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of the following:  (i) Landlord shall have given the Rejection Notice provided for above and Leasehold Mortgagee shall have failed to give timely the Assumption Notice or, having given the Assumption Notice, shall have failed to cure within the Bankruptcy Cure Periods any defaults required to be cured hereunder, or (ii) Leasehold Mortgagee shall have served on Landlord a notice of Leasehold

34

Mortgagee’s election not to assume this Lease.  If Leasehold Mortgagee does not assume this Lease or, after assuming the same fails to fulfill the terms hereof, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease as provided herein and in the event of such termination, all rights of Leasehold Mortgagee in the Premises and the Improvements shall cease and be of no further force and effect.

B.            If any court or governmental agency orders Landlord to investigate or remediate any Hazardous Materials located in, on, under or about the Premises, Landlord shall comply with such order at its sole cost without contribution from Tenant, except to the extent that the presence of such Hazardous Materials was caused by Tenant or persons under Tenant’s control.

C.            Landlord shall indemnify, defend with counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant, and hold harmless Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, stockholders, partners, officers, directors, successors, subtenants, personal representatives and assigns (collectively the “Tenant Indemnitees”) from and against all Claims (as defined in Section 16.3) arising from or relating to compliance with the order of any court or governmental agency regarding Hazardous Materials present at any time on or about the Premises; except to the extent that the foregoing actually results from (i) the release, disposal, discharge or emission of Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises, during the Lease Term by Tenant or Tenant’s employees or agents or (ii) the act or omission of any other party (other than Landlord or persons under Landlord’s control) who places, transports, discharges or releases Hazardous Materials to the surface of the Premises after Tenant has the exclusive right to occupy the Premises.  Landlord’s foregoing indemnification shall include liability for any and all costs incurred by Tenant in connection with any such court or governmental agency, including, without limitation, attorneys’ and consultants’ fees, but shall not include any liability for any lost profits or other consequential damages incurred by Tenant.

D.            At such time as Tenant, at its cost and expense, undertakes the demolition of those structures presently located on the Premises, Landlord shall, in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, remove and dispose of any and all asbestos located in the structures being demolished.  Landlord shall coordinate such removal activities with Tenant’s demolition and construction activities.  Prior to Tenant’s awarding a demolition contract with respect to existing structures on the Premises, Tenant, its consultants and Landlord shall identify the location of all asbestos in such structures.  As part of its demolition contract award process, Tenant shall require contract applicants to state the amount of their bid for demolition, assuming there was no asbestos

36

in the structures to be demolished.  Tenant shall then identify all parts of such structures which will be removed and disposed of by Landlord in accordance with its obligations concerning asbestos removal described above.  Tenant shall then require applicants to state the amount of their bid for demolition, excluding the obligation to demolish and remove such identified portions of the structures.  If the applicant to which Tenant awards the demolition contract reduces its bid as a result of Landlord’s removal and disposal of such identified portions of the structures, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to such cost savings.  Such payment shall constitute payment in full for Landlord’s asbestos removal and disposal activities hereunder.

E.             Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 16.4, in the event that any claims (as defined in Section 16.3) arise during the Lease Term with respect to Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises that have actually resulted directly from the release, disposal, discharge or emission of Hazardous Materials in the Back Bay of Biloxi by parties other than Landlord or Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall each bear fifty percent (50%) of all costs to remediate, remove or otherwise deal with such Hazardous Materials in accordance with Environmental Laws, and Landlord and Tenant shall both join in any resulting litigation and shall each bear fifty percent (50%) of all costs (including attorneys’ and consultant’s fees) of such litigation.

F.             Landlord shall perform all of its investigative, remediation and other obligations under this Section 16.4 in a manner which will minimize interference with and disruption of the operations of Tenant.

16.5         Definition of Environmental Laws:  As used herein “Environmental Laws” shall mean all local, state or federal laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, judgments, injunctions, stipulations, decrees, orders, permits, approvals, treaties or protocols now or hereafter enacted, issued or promulgated by any governmental authority which relate to any Hazardous Material or to the use, handling, transportation, production, disposal, discharge, release, emission, sale or storage of , or the exposure of any person to, a Hazardous Material.

16.6         Definition of Hazardous Material:  The term “Hazardous Material” shall mean any material or substance that is now or hereafter prohibited or regulated by any law or that is now or hereafter designated by any governmental authority to be radioactive, toxic, hazardous or otherwise a danger to health, reproduction or the environment, including, without limitation, (i) oil and petroleum products, (ii) explosives, (iii) radioactive substances and materials, (iv) hazardous, ultra-hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, (v) asbestos, (vi) urea formaldehyde, (vii) polychlorinated biphenyls and transformers or other equipment which contain fluid containing polychlorinated biphenyls, (viii) radon gas, and (ix) chemicals, materials or substances now or hereafter defined or included in the definition of “hazardous substances”, “hazardous waste”, “hazardous materials”, or “toxic substances”, or words of similar import, under any law, including, not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 as now or hereafter amended (“CERCLA”), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, as now or hereafter amended, the Resource Conservation Recovery Act, as now or hereafter amended, the Federal

17.5         No Merger:  The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger and shall, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and/or all subleases of subtenants.

39

Arbitration Association or its successor insofar as said rules of procedure do not conflict with the laws of the State of Mississippi then in force.  Once notice to arbitrate has been given, Landlord and Tenant shall jointly, within fifteen (15) days of such notice, select one arbitrator, or if they cannot agree on one arbitrator then each shall select an arbitrator within twenty (20) days of delivery of said notice, and the two arbitrators selected shall designate the third arbitrator within twenty-five (25) days of delivery of said notice.  The three arbitrators shall convene as soon as practicable and offer Landlord and Tenant the opportunity to present their cases.  If any party to the arbitration, after being duly notified, fails to appear, participate or produce evidence at an arbitration hearing, the arbitrator(s) may make an award based solely on the evidence actually presented.  The arbitrators shall, by majority vote, make such award and decision as is appropriate and in accord with the terms of this Lease, and such award shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant and enforceable in a court of law.  The cost of arbitration shall be borne by Landlord and Tenant as determined by the arbitrators.  In the event either party fails to appoint an arbitrator or the two arbitrators fail to select a third arbitrator within the time required by this Section, then upon application of either party, the arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association or if there be no American Arbitration Association or it shall refuse to perform this function, then at the request of either Landlord or Tenant such arbitrator shall be appointed by the then senior judge of the Chancery Court of the State of Mississippi for the Second Judicial District of the County of Harrison.

17.8         No Partnership:  It is agreed that nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, unincorporated association, or other similar relationship between Landlord and Tenant, or cause Landlord to be responsible in any way for the debts or obligations of Tenant.  Neither the method of computing rent nor any other provision contained in this Lease nor any acts of the parties hereto shall be deemed to create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship of landlord and tenant.

17.9         Captions:  The captions used in this Lease are for the purpose of convenience only and shall not be construed to limit or extend the meaning of any part of this Lease.

17.10       Duplicate Originals; Counterparts:  Any executed copy of this Lease shall be deemed an original for all purposes.  This Lease may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Lease.

every other provision of this Lease shall remain and subsist in full force and effect, and this Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not been contained herein.

17.13       Interpretation:  The language in all parts of this Lease shall in all cases be construed as a whole according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either Landlord or Tenant.  This Lease is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by the parties and their respective counsel.  Accordingly, this Lease shall be deemed to be the product of both parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against either party.  In the event that Landlord or Tenant is comprised of more than one person or entity, all covenants, obligations and liabilities of Landlord and Tenant shall be the joint and several covenants, obligations and liabilities of all such persons and entities comprising Landlord and Tenant, respectively.  When the context of this Lease requires, a reference to one gender includes the other genders, a partnership, a corporation and a joint venture, and the singular includes the plural.  The validity, construction, effect, performance and enforcement of this Lease shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Mississippi.

17.14       Successors Bound:  The covenants and agreements contained in this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, and permitted assigns, all subject to the limitations contained in Articles 13 and 14.

17.15       No Waiver:  The waiver by Landlord or tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.

17.16       Covenant of Fair Dealing:  Each party hereto agrees to act reasonably and in good faith with respect to the performance and fulfillment of the terms of each and every covenant and condition contained in this Lease.

17.17       Delays:  Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes, lockouts, inclement weather, labor disputes, acts of God, inability to obtain labor, materials or fuels or reasonable substitute therefor, governmental restrictions, regulations, controls, action or inaction, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, and other causes beyond  the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform shall excuse the performance, for a period equal to the period of any said prevention, delay or stoppage, of any obligation hereunder.

17.18       Integration:  This Lease and all exhibits hereto constitute the entire agreement between the parties, and there are no agreements or representations between the parties except as expressed herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, in the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Lease and the terms and conditions of that certain Agreement to Lease Property in Biloxi, Mississippi, dated April 9, 1993, between Boomtown, Inc. and Landlord, this Lease shall

41

control.  Except as otherwise provided herein, no subsequent change or addition to this Lease shall be binding unless in writing and signed by the parties hereto.
