9. Administrative Agent’s Right to Perform Contracts. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent (or its designee) may proceed to perform any and all of the obligations of Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and exercise any and all rights of Grantor therein contained as fully as Grantor itself could.
10. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Grantor and in the name of Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:
(a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the Accounts or any other Collateral of Grantor;
(b) to receive and open all mail addressed to Grantor and to notify postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to Grantor to that of Administrative Agent;
(c) to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, Negotiable Collateral or Chattel Paper;

(g) Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Group shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if Administrative Agent shall commence any such suit, Grantor shall, at the request of Administrative Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents required by Administrative Agent in aid of such enforcement.
To the extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Section 10. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.
| -18- | Borrower Security Agreement |
11. Administrative Agent May Perform. If Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Administrative Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor.
12. Administrative Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect Administrative Agent’s interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Lender Group and shall not impose any duty upon Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Administrative Agent accords its own property.
13. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have been assigned to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, or that Administrative Agent has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Loan Documents.
14. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Administrative Agent. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, Administrative Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if Administrative Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, Administrative Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Administrative Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.
15. Voting Rights.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Administrative Agent may, at its option, and with 5 Business Days prior notice to Grantor, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, and all other ownership or consensual rights in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by Grantor, but under no circumstances is Administrative Agent obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Administrative Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Interests, Grantor hereby appoints Administrative Agent, Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner Administrative Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.
| -19- | Borrower Security Agreement |
(b) For so long as Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would materially adversely affect the rights of Administrative Agent and the other members of the Lender Group or the value of the Pledged Interests.
16. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(a) Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Administrative Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Administrative Agent and make it available to Administrative Agent at one or more locations where Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
(b) Administrative Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether owned by Grantor or with respect to which Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements, as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent.
(c) Any cash held by Administrative Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, Grantor shall remain liable for any such deficiency.
| -20- | Borrower Security Agreement |
(d) Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing Administrative Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. Administrative Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of Grantor, and Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by Administrative Agent.
17. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of Administrative Agent as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Administrative Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Administrative Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.
18. Additional Provisions Relating to Gaming Laws and Gaming Licenses. Grantor agrees that, upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at Administrative Agent’s request, it will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, promptly cooperate with the Administrative Agent with respect to the filing of its applications for approval and shall take all other and further actions required by Administrative Agent to assist Administrative Agent in obtaining such licenses and other approvals or consents of the Nevada Gaming Authorities, the Mississippi Gaming Authorities, and any other Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction as are necessary for the Administrative Agent, to operate the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries or to acquire an interest in any Person holding any such Gaming License pursuant to the Gaming Laws. In the event Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries fails or refuses to cooperate with the Administrative Agent in filing such applications, Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as attorney in fact of Grantor for the purpose of preparing, signing, filing and prosecuting to final action of the applicable Gaming Authorities any such applications. To enforce the provisions of this Section 18, Administrative Agent is also empowered to request the appointment of a receiver or similar independent person to preserve and operate the business of the Grantor and its Subsidiaries from any court, or if applicable under the Gaming Laws, of a Gaming Authority, of competent jurisdiction. Such receiver or similar person shall be instructed to seek from the applicable Nevada Gaming Authority or Mississippi Gaming Authority and any other Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction authorization pursuant to the Gaming Laws to continue operation of the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries under all necessary Gaming Licenses for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser of the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries. Grantor hereby agrees to consent to, and to cause each of its Subsidiaries to consent to such an authorization pursuant to the Gaming Laws to continue the operation of the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries upon the request of the receiver so appointed and, if Grantor or any such Subsidiary shall refuse to so consent, its consent may be required by the court. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, assist in obtaining approval of the applicable Nevada Gaming Authority or Mississippi Gaming Authority and any other Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction, if required, for any action or transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Loan Documents, including, preparation, execution, and filing with the applicable Nevada Gaming Authority or Mississippi Gaming Authority and any other Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction of any application or applications for authorization pursuant to the Gaming Laws for the receiver to continue the operation of the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries under any Gaming License or transfer of control necessary or appropriate under the applicable Gaming Laws for approval of the transfer or assignment of any portion of the Collateral. In the event Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries fails or refuses to cooperate with the Administrative Agent in filing such applications, Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent as attorney in fact of Grantor for the purpose of preparing, signing, filing and prosecuting to final action of the applicable Gaming Authorities any such applications.

Grantor acknowledges that the authorization pursuant to the Gaming Laws for the receiver to continue the operation of the businesses of Grantor and its Subsidiaries under the Gaming Licenses or for a transfer of control is integral to Administrative Agent’s realization of the value of the Collateral, that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by Grantor to comply with the provisions of this Section 18 and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 18 may be specifically enforced.
19. Marshaling. Administrative Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
20. Indemnity and Expenses.
(a) Grantor agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and the other members of the Lender Group from and against all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys fees) growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including, enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Loan Document to which Grantor is a party, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement and the repayment of the Secured Obligations.
(b) Grantor shall, upon demand, pay to Administrative Agent (or Administrative Agent, may charge to the Loan Account) all the Lender Group costs and expenses which Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Administrative Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure by Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
21. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and Grantor.
| -22- | Borrower Security Agreement |
22. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Administrative Agent at its address specified in the Credit Agreement, and to Grantor at its address specified in the Credit Agreement or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party.
23. Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and any Obligations under the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement) have been paid in full in cash in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments have expired or have been terminated, (b) be binding upon Grantor and its successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Administrative Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any of the Lenders may, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such the Lender herein or otherwise. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and any Obligations under the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the expiration or termination of the Commitments, the Security Interest granted hereby and this Agreement shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantor or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Administrative Agent will authorize (i) the filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interests, (ii) the filing of releases of its security interests or liens on the Grantor’s Patents, Copyrights, and Trademarks, and (iii) the filing of other documents reasonably requested by the Grantor which are necessary to remove any cloud on the title on Grantor’s Copyrights, Patents, or Trademarks which cloud was caused by the filing of any documents by Administrative Agent under this Agreement. In addition, upon any sale or other disposition by Grantor of any item of Collateral in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Security Interest granted hereby in such item and this Agreement (insofar as it applies to such item) shall terminate and all rights to such item shall revert to Grantor or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Administrative Agent will authorize (i) the filing of appropriate financing statement amendments to evidence the termination of such Security Interests in such item, (ii) the filing of releases of its security interests or liens in such item with the United States Copyright Office or United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, and (iii) the filing of other documents reasonably requested by the Grantor which are necessary to remove any cloud on the title on such item, which cloud was caused by the filing of any documents by Administrative Agent under this Agreement. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by Grantor to Administrative Agent nor any additional Loans made by any Lender to Borrower, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantor by Administrative Agent, nor any other act of the Lender Group, or any of them, shall release Grantor from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Administrative Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Administrative Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which Administrative Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.
24. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN RESPECT OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT), THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO OR THERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

25. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS AND VENUE. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL LEGAL PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICES, AND DOCUMENTS IN ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY THE MAILING (BY REGISTERED MAIL OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID) OR DELIVERING OF A COPY OF SUCH PROCESS TO GRANTOR, AT GRANTOR’S ADDRESS FOR NOTICES AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.01 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. GRANTOR AGREES THAT A FINAL NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST GRANTOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. GRANTOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT GRANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC.

GRANTOR CERTIFIES THAT NO OFFICER, REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS. GRANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND THE LENDERS.
| -24- | Borrower Security Agreement |
27. Compliance with Gaming Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent expressly acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement is subject to the mandatory provisions of the Gaming Laws. Specifically, Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) The pledge by Grantor of the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries, and any restrictions on the transfer of and agreements not to encumber the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, are not effective without the prior approval of the NGC upon the recommendation of the NGCB or the prior approval of the Mississippi Gaming Authorities, as applicable. The certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries may not be delivered to Administrative Agent until such approval has been obtained. The approval of the pledge of the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries may require amendment of this Agreement to include additional references to regulatory requirements under the Gaming Laws. In addition, no amendment of this Agreement shall be effective until applicable approvals, if any, of the Nevada Gaming Authorities and the Mississippi Gaming Authorities have been obtained.
(b) In the event that Administrative Agent exercises one or more of the remedies set forth in this Agreement with respect to any Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries, including without limitation, foreclosure or transfer of any interest in the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries (except back to Grantor), the exercise of voting and consensual rights, and any other resort to or enforcement of the security interest in the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries, such action shall require the separate and prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities or the Mississippi Gaming Authorities, as applicable, and the licensing of Administrative Agent, unless such licensing requirement is waived by the Nevada Gaming Authorities or the Mississippi Gaming Authorities, as applicable.
(c) Administrative Agent and any custodial agent of Administrative Agent in the State of Nevada or State of Mississippi shall be required to comply with the conditions, if any, imposed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities or Mississippi Gaming Authorities, as applicable, in connection with its approval of the pledge granted hereunder by Grantor of the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the requirement that Administrative Agent or its agent maintain the certificates evidencing the Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries at a location in Nevada or Mississippi identified to the NGCB, and that Administrative Agent or its agent permit agents or employees of the NGCB or applicable the Mississippi Gaming Authorities to inspect such certificates immediately upon request during normal business hours.
(d) Neither Administrative Agent nor any agent of Administrative Agent shall surrender possession of any Investment Related Property in or of Gaming Subsidiaries to any Person other than Grantor without the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities or the Mississippi Gaming Authorities, as applicable, or as otherwise permitted by the Gaming Laws.
(e) The approval by the Nevada Gaming Authorities and Mississippi Gaming Authorities of this Agreement, or any amendment hereto, is not, and shall not be construed as, the approval, either express or implied, of Administrative Agent to take any actions provided for in this Agreement for which approval by the Nevada Gaming Authorities and Mississippi Gaming Authorities is required, without first obtaining such prior and separate approval, to the extent required by the Gaming Laws.
| -25- | Borrower Security Agreement |
(f) Administrative Agent will timely apply for and receive all required approvals of the applicable Nevada Gaming Authority or Mississippi Gaming Authority for the sale or other disposition of gaming equipment regulated by the Gaming Laws (including any such sale or disposition of gaming equipment consisting of slot machines, gaming tables, cards, dice, gaming chips, player tracking systems, and all other “gaming devices” (as such term or words of like import referring thereto are defined in the Gaming Laws), and “associated equipment” (as such term or words of like import referring thereto are defined in the Gaming Laws)).
28. Administrative Agent. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Administrative Agent” shall be a reference to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group.
29. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.
(b) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
(c) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof.
(d) The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular and plural, and the grammatical construction of sentences shall conform thereto.
(e) Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, the definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation,” whether or not so expressly stated in each such instance and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise, (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (e) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to
| -26- | Borrower Security Agreement |
any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. References in this Agreement to “determination” by Administrative Agent include estimates honestly made by Administrative Agent (in the case of quantitative determinations) and beliefs honestly held by Administrative Agent (in the case of qualitative determinations). Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the satisfaction or repayment in full of the Secured Obligations shall mean the repayment in full in cash (or cash collateralization in accordance with the terms hereof) of all Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification Secured Obligations, unasserted, contingent Obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement and Obligations under the Securities). Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record and any Record so transmitted shall constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and completeness of the information contained therein.
