and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as its initial representatives of the Board. Each
Member may, from time to time, change such Member's designated
representative(s) of the Board by giving written notice thereof to the
other Member, provided that either (i) any replacement representative is a
partner, trustee, member, managing member, shareholder, officer or director
of such Member or an Affiliate thereof, or (ii) such replacement
representative is approved by the other Member, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The Board shall have the authority to make all
decisions affecting the business and affairs of the Company as fully and
completely as if the Members were themselves making such decisions.
(b) The number of representatives of the Board may be increased or
decreased from time to time by the Board so long as an equal number of the
representatives of the Board are appointed by each of TrizecHahn and
Holdings II.

office of the Company in Nevada (or at such other place(s) as are
designated by the Board) at such times as shall be designated from time to
time by the Board.
(d) Special meetings of the Board may be called by or at the request
of any representative of the Board and shall be held at the principal

meeting of the Board may designate any reasonable time for holding of the
special meeting.
(e) Representatives of the Board may participate in any regularly
scheduled or special meetings of the Board telephonically or through other
similar communications equipment, as long as all of the representatives
participating in the meeting can hear one another. Participation in a
meeting pursuant to the preceding sentence shall constitute presence in
person at such meeting for all purposes of this Agreement.
(f) Except for any regularly scheduled or special meeting of the
representatives of the Board, it is the express intent of the Members that
there shall not be any required (or regularly scheduled) meetings of the
Members.
(g) Notice of any meeting of the Board shall be given no fewer than
ten (10) business days and no more than thirty (30) days prior to the date
of the meeting. The attendance of a representative of the Board at a
meeting of the Board shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting,
except where a representative of the Board attends a meeting for the
express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the
meeting is not properly called or convened. Neither the business to be
transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the
Board need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.
(h) Provided that notice of a meeting has been given or waived in the
manner set forth herein, a majority (in number) of the members of the Board
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of
the Board, provided that if less than a majority of such number of
representatives of the Board are present at such meeting, a majority of the
representatives of the Board present may adjourn the meeting at any time
without further notice.
(i) Provided that notice of a meeting has been given or waived in the
manner set forth herein, the act of a majority (in number) of the
representatives of the Board present shall be the act of the Board and
shall constitute a decision of the Board and such decision shall be binding
upon the Company and on each Member.

Board may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth
the actions so taken, shall be signed by a majority (in number) of the
representatives of the Board entitled to vote with respect to the subject
matter thereof provided that each Member shall be provided with at least
one (1) business day prior notice of such proposed action.
Provided that such notice is given or waived in writing, any such consent
signed by a majority (in number) of the representatives of the Board shall
have the same effect as an act of a majority (in number) of the
representatives of the Board at a properly called and constituted meeting
of the Board at which all of the representatives of the Board were present
and voting.
(k) Except as otherwise determined by the Board or as approved as
part of the Development Budget or Operating Budget, no representative of
the Board nor any officer of the Company shall be entitled to receive any
salary or remuneration from the Company for services as a representative of
the Board or an officer of the Company.
(l) The Board may, by resolution, designate one (1) or more
individuals as employees or agents of the Company in furtherance of its
business and purposes. No such employee or agent need be a Member of the
Company. Each employee or agent shall have the authority and shall perform
the duties as designated by the Board from time to time. Any employee or
agent so appointed by the Board may be removed by the Board for any reason
or no reason whatsoever, with or without cause.
(m) Except as provided in Section 2.02, or as authorized pursuant to
the Development Agreement or the Management Agreement, all contracts,
agreements and other documents or instruments affecting or relating to the
business and affairs of the Company may be executed on the Company's behalf
only by the Member(s), officer(s) or such other authorized person(s) as are
designated in writing by the Board and without execution by any other
Member.
(n) Except as provided in Section 2.02 or elsewhere in this
Agreement, none of the Members or officers of the Company, without the
prior consent of the Board, shall take any action on behalf of or in the
name of the Company, or enter into any commitment or obligation binding
upon the Company, except for (i) actions expressly authorized by this
Agreement, (ii) actions on or after the date of this Agreement by any
Member (or officer) within the scope of such Member's (or officer's)
authority granted hereunder except as set forth in Schedule 2.14(d) or
otherwise authorized pursuant to Section 3.01, and (iii) actions authorized
by the Board in the manner set forth herein. Each Member hereby
indemnifies, defends, protects and holds harmless the other Member and each
such other Member's Affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors,
partners, members, employees, agents, and representatives (including the
representative(s) to the Board appointed by such Member) from and against
any and all losses, liability, damages, costs and/or expenses (including
attorneys' fees) arising out of the breach of any of the foregoing
provisions by such indemnifying Member, any representative of the Board
selected by such Member or such Member's Affiliates, shareholders,
officers, directors, constituent partners, members, managers, employees,
agents, or representatives.
(o) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.03 to the
contrary, to the extent that any Member acquires or obtains more than fifty
percent (50%) of the Percentage Interests of the Company (I.E., as a result
of a permitted transfer of a portion of a Member's Interest or, subject to
the sole discretion approval of the Members, the
admission of an additional Member to the Company), then such controlling
Member shall have the right at all times to appoint a majority in number of
the representatives of the Board, and the number of representatives
selected by the minority Members of the Company shall be reduced
proportionately. For example, in the event that a Member acquires more
than fifty percent (50%) of the Percentage Interest of the Company (either
as a result of the permitted transfer of a portion of a Member's Interest
or, subject to the sole discretion approval of the Members, the admission
of an additional Member to the Company), then such controlling Member shall
have the right to appoint three (3) of the representatives to the Board,
and the non-controlling Member shall have the right to appoint one (1)
representative to the Board.
2.04 AUTHORITY OF THE BOARD
Without limiting the generality of Section 2.02, and except as
otherwise provided by this Agreement, the consent of the Board shall be required
for, and the Board shall have the sole and exclusive right, power and authority
to approve the following:
(a) Any financing, refinancing or securitization of all or any
portion of the Bazaar Improvements and the use of any proceeds therefrom,

instruments evidencing, securing or relating to any such financing,

(c) Any lease of space within the Bazaar Improvements in excess
of Twelve Thousand Five Hundred (12,500) square feet;
(d) The making of any expenditure by the Company that is not
specifically included or contemplated under the Development Budget or the
applicable Operating Budget, other than as permitted within any parameters
agreed to by the Members in any such Budget (e.g., application of line item
cost savings, contingency line item amounts, etc., except that TrizecHahn
shall not have the authority to increase the tenant improvement and theming
line items without Board approval); provided, however that TrizecHahn shall
have the authority to make any expenditure necessary to comply with
previously approved obligations of the Company;
(e) The Construction Contract for the development of the Bazaar
Improvements; and
(f) The delivery of a notice of default pursuant to the
Management Agreement or the Development Agreement.
In the event that the Board shall become deadlocked concerning any of the major

2.05 OPERATING BUDGET
THCM or its successors and assigns, as property manager of the Bazaar
Improvements, shall prepare and submit to the Board, for the Board's review and
approval, prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Bazaar
Improvements and thereafter at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of each
fiscal year of the Partnership, a budget ("OPERATING BUDGET") for the ensuing
fiscal year or portion thereof. Following the approval of an Operating Budget,
TrizecHahn acting alone shall have the power to authorize THCM to incur any
expenditures authorized to be incurred under such approved Operating Budget for
the period covered by such approved Operating Budget, without the consent of the
Board. If the Board does not approve any proposed Operating Budget for any
fiscal year of the Company, then the last approved Operating Budget (as
previously increased, if applicable, pursuant to the following provisions of
this sentence) shall be deemed to apply with respect to such fiscal year until a
revised Operating Budget is approved for such fiscal year; provided, however,
(i) appropriate adjustments to such last approved Operating Budget shall
automatically be made to reflect actual increases in real property taxes,
insurance premiums, utility charges, and similar items over which the Company
has no control, and (ii) each other item other than any non-recurring items
(e.g., capital expenditures, including tenant improvements in excess of the
applicable amount set forth in the last approved Operating Budget) in such last
approved Operating Budget shall be increased by ten percent (10%) annually until
such time as the Board is able to agree upon a revised Operating Budget. In
addition, TrizecHahn acting alone shall be authorized without the consent of the
Board to incur, or authorize THCM to incur, expenditures on behalf of the
Company in excess of the various line item amounts that TrizecHahn is authorized
to incur in the last approved Operating Budget provided the sum of such
expenditures and the expenses projected to be incurred in the future under such
Operating Budget in the aggregate do not exceed one hundred five percent (105%)
of the aggregate estimated expenditures set forth in, and with respect to the
period covered by, such approved Operating Budget. Following the Opening,
THCM's responsibilities shall be as follows:
(a) THCM shall establish an on-site property management team to
manage, market, operate, lease and maintain the Bazaar Improvements.
(b) The Company shall provide THCM on-site office space (with
respect only for the management and leasing of the Center) at the Center
for a management office without any fee or charge for such space not to
exceed six thousand (6,000) square feet.
(c) THCM shall perform, or cause to be performed, all duties of
the Company as lessor under the leases with tenants leasing space in the

(d) THCM shall collect all rent and other monies due from
tenants and any sums otherwise due the Company with respect to the Center
in the ordinary course of business.
(e) THCM shall coordinate the leasing of space in the Center
(including the initial leasing of space in the Center, as well as all
subsequent re-leasing of space), and shall procure new leases and lease
renewals for the Company on terms and conditions which are in general
accordance with the approved leasing plan. When appropriate, THCM will
delegate the leasing of space in the Center, or a portion thereof, to
third-party independent leasing agents or brokers; provided, however, that
the total leasing commission shall not exceed the fees set forth pursuant
to Section 2.08. Any leasing commission payable to third-party independent
leasing agents or brokers previously in communication with Holdings II or
representing tenants (and not engaged by THCM on behalf of the Company)
shall not reduce the fees payable to THCM or its affiliates as set forth
pursuant to Section 2.08 under Leasing Fees. It is the understanding of
the parties that third party brokers previously in communication with
Holdings II shall be paid as third party brokers if and when appropriate in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
(f) Upon the Company's approval by the Board of the Leasing Plan
or updated Leasing Plan, THCM shall negotiate and execute on behalf of and
as the agent of the Company all new leases, lease renewals and any
assignments, amendments or terminations thereof that are consistent with
the Leasing Plan, provided, however, that leases for space in excess of
12,500 square feet shall be submitted to the Board for approval prior to
execution.
(g) THCM shall prepare all documentation for any lease
transaction at the agreed-upon lease documentation rate.
(h) THCM shall, at the Company's cost and expense and subject to
the approval of the Board, retain the services of a Marketing Director who
shall provide specialized marketing services for the Center.
(i) THCM shall, on behalf of and at the Company's cost and
expense, enforce all lease provisions to be performed by tenants of the
Center.
(j) THCM shall coordinate the security for the Center.
(k) THCM shall, at the Company's cost and expense, operate and
maintain the Center as a first-class regional shopping center and cause the
Company to comply with its Operating Covenant under the REA.

with the project, THCM shall be paid a development fee ("DEVELOPMENT FEE")
pursuant to the terms of a separate development agreement ("DEVELOPMENT

Work and Utilities Contribution" costs, and total Parking Facilities costs,
prior to the

(collectively, "HARD CONSTRUCTION COSTS") identified as such in the Development
Budget for the Bazaar Improvements. Development administration costs shall be
charged directly to the Company. Upon execution of the Development Agreement in
form approved by the Company and THCM, then the provisions of this Section 2.06

other authorized representative of the Company ("INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall be

gross negligence in performing or in failing to perform such Indemnified Party's
duties hereunder, and (ii) any such indemnity shall be recoverable only from the

2.10 DESIGNATION OF OFFICERS
The Board may, from time to time, designate officers of the Company
and delegate to such officers such authority and duties as the Board may deem
advisable and may assign titles (including, without limitation, chief executive
officer, president, vice-president, secretary and/or treasurer) to any such
officer. Unless the Board otherwise determines, if the title assigned to an
officer of the Company is one commonly used for officers of a business
corporation formed under the Delaware Corporation Law, then the assignment of
such title shall constitute the delegation to such officer of the authority and
duties that are customarily associated with such office pursuant to the Delaware
Corporation Law. Any number of titles may be held by the same officer. Any
officer to whom a delegation is made pursuant to the foregoing shall serve in
the capacity delegated unless and until such delegation is revoked by the Board
or such officer resigns. The Company shall not have any managers within the
meaning of the Delaware Act.
2.11 COMPENSATION
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as
provided in any applicable Development Budget or Operating Budget, no Member or

incur any obligation or make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, or be
entitled to receive any remuneration for services rendered to the Company or to
be reimbursed for general administrative and overhead expenses.
2.12 TREATMENT OF FEES AND REIMBURSEMENTS
For financial and income tax reporting purposes, any and all fees paid
by the Company to any Member and/or any Affiliate thereof shall be treated as
expenses of the Company and, if paid to any Member, as guaranteed payments
within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code. To the extent any accrued
portion of any such fee is not paid in full prior to the liquidation of the
Company, such unpaid portion of such fee shall constitute a debt of the Company
payable upon such liquidation.
2.13 APPROVAL RIGHTS OVER RELATED ALADDIN DEVELOPMENT
TrizecHahn shall have reasonable approval of the quality of
development and planning for the development of the Redeveloped Aladdin. This
approval right shall also be contained in the Reciprocal Easement Agreement. It
is the intention of Holdings II that such development shall be equal to or
better than the general quality of the Mirage, including but not limited to
interior finish, theming and attraction package, and standard hotel room, with a
higher percentage of suites and king parlors. Such standards are intended to
attract as a primary target the upper middle market segment, with an ambiance
equal to or better than Bally's and Mirage. Upon the opening, the Redeveloped
Aladdin is intended to be one of the top five hotels on the Las Vegas strip
taking into consideration for such purposes the hotels existing and/or announced
as of the date hereof in terms of market segment, average daily room rate, and
overall ambiance and market perception. Additionally, it is contemplated that
London Clubs International will market a five-star international premium class
Salle Privee facility, including a restaurant, 15,000 square foot casino and
high-end hotel suites. Attached hereto as EXHIBIT "E" is a preliminary
construction proforma and plans and drawings for the Redeveloped Aladdin. The
preliminary construction pro forma indicates a total project costs of
approximately Seven Hundred Million Dollars ($700,000,000), including a theming
budget of Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000), for the Redeveloped Aladdin
(excluding the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel). TrizecHahn acknowledges that nothing
contained herein is intended to be a guaranty of the economic performance of the
Redeveloped Aladdin or the Center, and none of the parties hereto shall have any
liability with respect to such economic performance. Such approval by
TrizecHahn shall include, but not be limited to, quality of traffic and
pedestrian circulation, ingress and egress, contractors, plans, drawings and
construction schedule. Aladdin Holdings, LLC and Aladdin Gaming will cause the
Redeveloped Aladdin, containing approximately 2,600 rooms and an approximately
100,000 to 125,000 square foot casino, to be developed on the Master Site
together with related facilities and infrastructure as depicted in EXHIBIT "A"
and shall have the right at a later date to construct the "Optional
Improvements" (as such term is defined in the current draft of the REA).

ARTICLE III
MEMBERS' CONTRIBUTIONS TO COMPANY
3.01 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS FOR PRE-DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Commencing as of the date hereof, approved Predevelopment Costs for
the Center including, but not limited to, architectural, engineering and design
services (but excluding predevelopment-stage fees to either Holdings II or
TrizecHahn) will be funded by Holdings II and TrizecHahn in accordance with
their Percentage Interests in an amount not to exceed the amount set forth in
the Pre-Development Budget attached hereto as EXHIBIT "F". Commencing as of the
date hereof, Predevelopment Costs for the Parking Facilities will be funded by
Holdings and Holdings II and the Company based on a parking space prorata
allocation; the Company's allocation to be funded by Holdings II and TrizecHahn
in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. Predevelopment costs
incurred by Aladdin Holdings, LLC or by its affiliates which have accrued prior
to (but not after) March 17, 1997, and which are reasonably allocable to the
Center and the Parking Facilities as reasonably determined by TrizecHahn shall
be credited to the amount Holdings II is required to contribute pursuant to the
Pre-Development Budget following TrizecHahn's receipt and approval of paid
invoices from Aladdin Holdings, LLC; provided, however, in no event shall such
amount exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000). Accordingly, commencing
as of the date hereof, TrizecHahn shall fund one hundred percent (100%) of
Predevelopment Costs until such time as its funding of such costs shall be equal
to that of Holdings II, and thereafter all such costs shall be funded equally by
TrizecHahn and Holdings II, in accordance with the provisions hereof. If the
Redeveloped Aladdin improvements plan is abandoned by Aladdin Holdings, LLC,
then Holdings II shall promptly reimburse TrizecHahn for its share of the Bazaar
Improvements Predevelopment Costs pursuant to Section 3.06 below. The parties
acknowledge that Predevelopment Costs may also constitute costs included within
the Bazaar Company's Site Work and Utilities Contribution or costs allocable to
the Parking Facilities (as such terms are defined below). As used herein, the
term "PREDEVELOPMENT COSTS" means the types, categories and amounts of
pre-development costs and/or expenses approved in the Development Plan attached
hereto including, without limitation, architectural fees, engineering fees, and
other similar fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the pre-development of the Bazaar Improvements. A preliminary estimate of
the approximate amounts for the items comprising the Pre-Development Costs is
set forth in the Development Plan. Any and all contributions required to be
made by any Member to the capital of the Company for Pre-Development Costs
pursuant to this Section 3.01 or pursuant to Section 3.02, (i) shall be made
within ten (10) business days following the effective date of written notice
delivered to the Members by TrizecHahn requesting such amounts (which notice
shall include, without limitation, reasonably supporting documentation for such
Pre-Development Costs), and (ii) shall be credited to the Capital Account and
Unrecovered Contribution Account of such Member as and when any such
contribution is made.
3.02 ADDITIONAL CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS
Once all Conditions Precedent (as defined in the Glossary) required to
begin construction are satisfied and the Company has obtained financing approved
by the Members, (i) TrizecHahn shall contribute, as and when required by the
Bazaar Company, the TrizecHahn Investment, less a credit for predevelopment
expenditures incurred by TrizecHahn and approved by the Company, and (ii) the
Company and Holdings shall execute the Lease in form approved by the Board, and
Holdings II's Capital Account and Unrecovered Contribution Account shall be
credited with the amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) reflecting the
arrangement by Holdings II for the Company to obtain the Lease of the Property
with below market rate ground rent. The contribution of the TrizecHahn
Investment shall be guaranteed by TrizecHahn Centers Inc., in the form attached
hereto as EXHIBIT "G." In structuring the economics of this transaction,
TrizecHahn has assumed that the Company will be able to obtain mortgage
indebtedness, at market rates and on market terms based upon market terms and
conditions typically obtained by TrizecHahn, for the balance of the construction
costs. If the mortgage indebtedness together with the original capital
contributions is not sufficient to pay all construction costs, the Company will
first attempt to obtain additional indebtedness if available at reasonable
market rates and market terms as mutually determined by TrizecHahn and Holdings
II before requiring additional capital contributions. To the extent additional
capital ("ADDITIONAL CAPITAL") is required, Holdings II and TrizecHahn shall
each contribute such capital in the ratio of their Percentage Interests pursuant
to Section 3.04. Holdings II and TrizecHahn may elect to bring in a third-party
investor as an additional Member of the Company, subject to the sole discretion
approval of the other Member, to contribute their Additional Capital. If such
third-party investor is admitted as a member, the non-contributing party or
parties shall bear a dilution of its or their Percentage Interest.
Additionally, the two seats each on the Board may be divided between the
non-contributing party and its third-party investor, or if an additional seat is
added for the third-party investor, an additional seat will be added for the
contributing party.
3.03 CONSTRUCTION FINANCING
TrizecHahn and Holdings II will each use reasonable/diligent efforts
to obtain the construction financing for the Bazaar Improvements. It is the
intent of both parties to obtain construction/mini-perm financing from
third-party, institutional sources in an amount equal to at least 70% of the
costs of the development of the Bazaar Improvements. TrizecHahn Centers Inc.
("TrizecHahn Centers"), Aladdin Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("ALADDIN HOLDINGS") and the Trust Under Article Sixth U/W/O ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇ ("▇▇▇▇▇▇
TRUST") shall jointly and severally assume recourse liability and enter into a
completion guarantee in favor of the lender for the construction loan (but
neither party shall be obligated to assume recourse liability with respect to
any permanent or "take-out" financing). During any period of time in which any
such guarantee by TrizecHahn Centers, Aladdin Holdings and/or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust
in favor of the Company's lender is in effect, TrizecHahn Centers shall
guarantee the obligations of TrizecHahn to contribute capital to the Company,
and Aladdin Holdings and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust shall jointly and severally guarantee
the obligations of Holdings II to contribute capital to the Company, each in the
respective form of guaranty attached hereto as EXHIBITS "G" and EXHIBIT "H,"
respectively ("MEMBER CAPITAL OBLIGATION GUARANTEE"). Once nonrecourse
financing is obtained by the Company and the Company's lender fully and
unconditionally releases all guarantors, then in such event, the Member Capital
Obligation Guarantee shall automatically be of no further force and effect.
TrizecHahn and Holdings II anticipate that a commitment for the
construction financing for the Bazaar Improvements will be entered into
substantially concurrently with the financing obtained by Aladdin Holdings, LLC
and its affiliates with respect to the Redeveloped Aladdin. Both parties agree
to exercise reasonable/diligent efforts to coordinate the two financing efforts,
including but not limited to facilitating inter-creditor agreements and the
delivery of attornment and nondisturbance agreements. Any and all amounts
required to be paid by any Member pursuant to any recourse liability to a lender
to the Company shall be deemed to be contributed by such Member to the capital
of the Company and credited to such Member's Capital Account and Unrecovered
Contribution Account as and when any such payment is made.
3.04 CASH FLOW DEFICIT CONTRIBUTION
If TrizecHahn determines that additional funds are necessary for the
Company to meet its current or projected financial requirements, including,
without limitation, any financial requirements attributable to any Construction
Overruns and/or any operating shortfalls, then TrizecHahn may elect any one (1)
or more of the following: (i) to cause any such amounts to be obtained from one
(1) or more third-party lenders on such terms and conditions as are determined
in the reasonable discretion of the Board, (ii) to deliver written notice of
such actual or projected cash deficit to the Members, which notice shall include
a contribution date ("CONTRIBUTION DATE") (which shall not be less than ten (10)
business days following the Effective Date of such notice) upon which the
Members shall be obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash,
the entire amount of such cash deficit in proportion to their Percentage
Interests. Any and all contributions made to the capital of the Company by any
Member pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be credited to the Capital Account
and the Unrecovered Contribution Account of such Member as and when any such
contribution is made.
3.05 REMEDY FOR FAILURE TO CONTRIBUTE CAPITAL
If a Member (the "NON-CONTRIBUTING MEMBER") fails to contribute all or
any portion of any additional capital such Member is required to contribute
pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.02 and/or 3.04 (the "DELINQUENT CONTRIBUTION"),
then the other Member (the "CONTRIBUTING MEMBER") in addition to any and all
other rights and/or remedies the Contributing Member may have at law and/or in
equity, shall have the right to select one (1) or more of the following options
in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below in this Section
3.05:
(a) The Contributing Member may advance to the Company, in cash,
within thirty (30) days following the Contribution Date, an amount equal to
the Delinquent Contribution, and such advance shall be treated as a
recourse loan ("MEMBER LOAN") by the Contributing Member to the
Non-Contributing Member, bearing interest at a rate equal to the lesser of
(i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum, compounded monthly, or (ii) the
maximum, nonusurious rate then permitted by law for such loans. Each
Member Loan shall be payable upon the first to occur of the written demand
by the Contributing Member or the liquidation of the Company.
As of the Effective Date of any advance of a Member Loan, the
Non-Contributing Member shall be deemed to have contributed an amount equal
to the principal amount of such Member Loan to the capital of the Company,
and the Capital Account and the Unrecovered Contribution Account of the
Non-Contributing Member shall be credited with a like amount.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles II, V and IX, until any and all
Member Loans are repaid in full the Non-Contributing Member shall draw no
further distributions from the Company, and all cash or property otherwise
distributable with respect to the Non-Contributing Member's Interest shall
be distributed to the Contributing Member in repayment of the outstanding
balance of the Member Loan, with such funds being applied first to reduce
any and all interest accrued on such Member Loan and then to reduce the
principal amount thereof. Any amounts so applied shall be treated, for all
purposes under this Agreement, as having actually been distributed to the
Non-Contributing Member and applied by the Non-Contributing Member to repay
the outstanding Member Loan.
In order to secure the repayment of any and all Member Loans made
on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member, the Non-Contributing Member
hereby grants a security interest in favor of the Contributing Member in
and to all distributions to which the Non-Contributing Member may be
entitled to receive under this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably appoints
the Contributing Member, and any of the Contributing Member's respective
agents, officers, or employees, as the Non-Contributing Member's
attorney(s)-in-fact, with full power to prepare, execute, acknowledge, and
deliver, as applicable, all documents, instruments, and/or agreements
memorializing and/or securing such Member Loan(s) including, without
limitation, such Uniform Commercial Code financing and continuation
statements, pledge and/or security agreements, mortgages and other security
instruments as may be reasonably appropriate to perfect and continue the
security interest in favor of the Contributing Member.
If, upon any demand for the repayment of a Member Loan, any
principal thereof and/or accrued interest thereon remains outstanding ten
(10) Business Days following such demand, the Contributing Member may elect
any one (1) of the following options: (i) to continue to have such Member
Loan (or portion thereof) be payable upon demand pursuant to the terms and
provisions of this Section 3.05(a); (ii) to contribute all or any portion
of such outstanding principal of and accrued, unpaid interest on such
Member Loan (or portion thereof) to the capital of the Company and dilute
the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member in accordance with
the provisions of Section 3.05(b); or (iii) to institute legal (or other)
proceedings against the Non-
Contributing Member to collect such loan which may include, without
limitation, foreclosing upon the security interest granted above. The
Contributing Member may elect any of the options set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence by giving written notice of such election to
the Non-Contributing Member at any time after the expiration of the ten
(10) Business Day period set forth above.
(b) The Contributing Member may contribute to the capital of the
Company, in cash, within thirty (30) days following the Contribution Date
and by delivering written notice ("DILUTION NOTICE") thereof to the
Non-Contributing Member, an amount equal to the Delinquent Contribution,
and the Contributing Member's Capital Account and the Unrecovered
Contribution Account each shall be credited with the amount so contributed.
In addition, if a Member Loan is not fully repaid within the ten (10)
Business Day period set forth above, then the Contributing Member may at
any time thereafter deliver a Dilution Notice to the Non-Contributing
Member and thereby contribute to the capital of the Company, in accordance
with the provisions of Section 3.05(a) above, all or any portion of the
outstanding principal of and/or accrued, unpaid interest on such Member
Loan (or portion thereof). In the event of any such contribution, (i) the
amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed shall
be deemed repaid and satisfied, (ii) the Capital Account and the
Unrecovered Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member shall be
decreased, by the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so
contributed, (iii) the Capital Account and the Additional Unrecovered
Contribution Account, of the Contributing Member shall be increased by the
amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed; and
(iv) distributions of Cash Flow shall thereafter be made in accordance with
Sections 5.03 and 5.04.
In the event of the contribution of the Delinquent Contribution
and/or the outstanding balance of a Member Loan by the Contributing Member
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.05(b), the
Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member shall be decreased, as
of the Effective Date of the Dilution Notice, by an amount (expressed in
percentage points) equal to the a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is
the Delinquent Contribution (or the outstanding principal of, and accrued,
unpaid interest on, a Member Loan, as the case may be), and (ii) the
denominator of which is the sum of the Members' Unrecovered Contribution
Accounts and Additional Unrecovered Contribution Accounts; provided,
however, for purposes of this Section 3.05(b) only, Holdings II initial
Unrecovered Contribution Account shall be increased by Twenty Million
Dollars ($20,000,000). The Percentage Interest of the Contributing Partner
shall be correspondingly increased by a like amount of percentage points.
In addition, the Non-Contributing Member shall not be entitled to appoint
any representatives to the Board, and the Contributing Member alone shall
appoint all representatives of the Board.
(c) If the Contributing Member advances any amount to the
Company pursuant to this Section 3.05 but fails to specify which of the
foregoing options such Contributing Member has elected within ten (10) days
after the Effective Date that such Contributing Member makes such advance,
then such Contributing Member shall be deemed to have elected the option
set forth in Section 3.05(a) above with respect to such
advance. Any and all adjustments to the Non-Contributing Member's
Percentage Interest shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of
one percentage point (.01%) and the Contributing Member shall not succeed
to all or any portion of the Capital Account, Unrecovered Contribution
Account and/or accrued, unpaid Preferred Return of the Non-Contributing
Member as the result of any such adjustment. Notwithstanding any other
term of this Agreement, the Non-Contributing Member shall have no right to
participate in the management or control of the Company and/or any other
decisions relating to the Company from and after the date that such Member
Loan remains outstanding (unless subsequently repaid in full) or such
Member's Percentage Interest is reduced pursuant to Section 3.05(b).
3.06 FAILURE TO SATISFY CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
TrizecHahn and Holdings II acknowledge that at the date of the
execution hereof there remains a substantial question as to whether or not
Aladdin Gaming can, or is prepared to, construct the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel, on a
schedule that will permit the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel to open prior to or
simultaneously with the Bazaar Improvements. The parties have proposed
alternative plans in connection with the development of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel
which the parties are in the process of reviewing as of the date hereof.
Holdings II or its Affiliates has entered into a non-binding letter of intent
with Planet Hollywood International to enter into a joint development for the
▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel, which contemplates a music-themed hotel/casino. However,
the letter of intent is subject to mutual due diligence and documentation. It
is further acknowledged that the delay or failure to develop the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇
Hotel will have an adverse impact on the leasing of the Center. Furthermore,
the parties acknowledge that Aladdin Holdings, LLC and its Affiliates may seek
construction financing with respect to the Redeveloped Aladdin prior to the time
that sufficient progress has been made in the Center's leasing effort to satisfy
TrizecHahn in its sole discretion. It is understood that TrizecHahn is seeking
commitment from tenants evidenced by letters of intent for a minimum of
twenty-five percent (25%) of the leaseable area of the Center and leases for at
least two of the primary "strip-front end-cap" spaces of the Center, which are
in each case approved by TrizecHahn. Accordingly, TrizecHahn and Holdings II
agree to enter into good faith negotiations to resolve the matter. In the event
that the parties have not entered into an amendment to this Agreement with
respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel and the pre-leasing requirement which is
satisfactory to each party, in each party's sole discretion, on or before the
earlier of (i) thirty (30) days after the delivery of a Satisfaction Notice as
described below, or (ii) thirty (30) days after either Member delivers notice
that it reasonably believes that the Conditions Precedent have been satisfied,
or (iii) September 30, 1997, then either Member may at any time deliver a notice
to the other Member ("▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ TERMINATION NOTICE"), in which event the
Company shall promptly reimburse TrizecHahn for all of its Predevelopment Costs
(whereupon the Company shall own the work product for which such Predevelopment
Costs have been paid), and this Agreement shall automatically become null and
void and the parties and their Affiliates shall have no further rights, duties
or obligations to each other whatsoever (other than the reimbursement provisions
provided in this Section 3.06). The parties expressly acknowledge and agree
that either party shall have no obligation or liability to approve the proposal
made by the other, and that the sole and exclusive remedy for the failure to
approve such proposal shall be to terminate this Agreement.
Holdings II shall deliver to TrizecHahn a notice ("SATISFACTION
NOTICE") at such time as Aladdin Gaming and Holdings II are prepared to proceed
with the Project and that, but for the resolution of the issues relating to the
▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotel and the pre-leasing requirement, the Conditions Precedent
set forth in Section 12.10 are satisfied. The Satisfaction Notice shall include
reasonable supporting evidence that the Conditions Precedent are satisfied. The
Satisfaction Notice shall indicate that (a) Holdings II believes that the
development of the Bazaar Improvements, as contemplated in the Plans and
Specifications, is economically feasible and desirable; (b) Holdings II has
approved the level of pre-leasing existing as of that date; (c) Holdings II has
approved the Site Work Agreement, the Development Agreement, the Lease, the
Reciprocal Easement Agreement and the Parking Use Agreement, and an agreement
has been entered into to construct and operate a central utility plant or to
cause to be constructed and operated a cogeneration facility for the Master
Development; (d) all necessary permits and governmental approvals to begin
construction of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino have been received; (e) subject to
completion of certain leasing requirements and other customary conditions, there
is an irrevocable commitment (which has been fully negotiated, approved by the
lender and ready for signature) to fund at least seventy percent (70%) of the
costs of construction of the Bazaar Improvements upon competitive market rate
terms and conditions which is satisfactory to Holdings II; (f) the construction
contract and architect/engineer contract with respect to the Aladdin Hotel and
Casino is satisfactory to Holdings II; and (g) subject to payment of any
applicable financing fees and other customary conditions, there are irrevocable
commitments to fund (and Holdings II and its underwriters are prepared to
immediately print and distribute to investors offering documents) all equity and
debt financing necessary to construct the Aladdin Hotel and Casino, the Other
Parking and the costs of the Parking Facilities allocable to the Aladdin Hotel
and Casino, and to operate the same through the Opening which is satisfactory to
Holdings II. In such event, TrizecHahn shall notify Holdings II within five (5)
business days thereafter that it approves or disapproves of the satisfaction of
the conditions as provided in the Satisfaction Notice. If TrizecHahn does not
approve or if TrizecHahn shall not respond within said five (5) business days,
time being of the essence, then the Company shall promptly reimburse TrizecHahn
for all of its Predevelopment Costs, and this Agreement shall automatically
become null and void and the parties and their Affiliates shall have no further
rights, duties or obligations to each other whatsoever (other than the
reimbursement provisions provided in this Section 3.06).
In the event that the Conditions Precedent are not satisfied or
construction has not commenced by the third anniversary of the date of this
Agreement, then the Company shall promptly reimburse TrizecHahn for all of its
Predevelopment Costs, unless TrizecHahn elects to extend the deadline for
satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent to the fourth anniversary of the date
of this Agreement. If the project is abandoned by Holdings and the Aladdin
Hotel is to be sold, then the Company shall promptly reimburse TrizecHahn for
all of its Predevelopment Costs, and during the period of one (1) year after
such abandonment, TrizecHahn shall have an exclusive thirty (30) day right of
first negotiation to acquire the fee underlying the Center and/or the entire
Aladdin Hotel, at TrizecHahn's election; provided, however, that such right of
first negotiation shall be subordinate to any similar rights held by equity
investors of Holdings. After the end of said thirty (30) day period,
TrizecHahn's right of first negotiation shall expire. If TrizecHahn abandons
the Project prior to the expiration of the third (3rd) anniversary date of this
Agreement, then the Company shall have no further reimbursement obligation.
Aladdin Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
("Holdings"), and the owner of the fee estate underlying the Lease, hereby
guarantees the reimbursement obligation set forth in this Section 3.06 pursuant
to the terms of the guarantee attached hereto as EXHIBIT "I".
3.07 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS IN GENERAL
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (a) no part
of the contributions of any Member to the capital of the Company may be
withdrawn by such Member, (b) no Member shall be entitled to receive interest on
such Member's contributions to the capital of the Company, (c) no Member shall
have the right to demand or receive property other than cash in return for such
Member's contribution to the Company, and (d) no Member shall be required or be
entitled to contribute additional capital to the Company other than as permitted
or required by this Article III.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no allocation

(in excess of such Member's allocable share of minimum gain and after taking
into account any adjustments set forth in Treasury Regulation Section
1.704(b)-1(b)(2)(ii)(D)) and any such Net Losses instead shall be allocated one
hundred percent (100%) to the other Member. If any such allocation of Net
Losses would cause or increase a deficit balance standing in both Members'
respective Capital Accounts (in excess of such Members' respective allocable
shares of minimum gain and after taking into account any adjustments set forth
in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704(b)-1(b)(2)(ii)(D)), then such Net Losses
shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests. In addition, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated

forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(D). Notwithstanding any

deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the

proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; (ii) any and all "partner
nonrecourse deductions" (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Sections
1.704-2(i)(2)) attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" (as such term is
defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.70-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the
Member that bears the "economic risk of loss" (as determined under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.752-2) for such "partner nonrecourse debt" in accordance
with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(l); (iii) each Member shall be
specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the
partnership minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury
Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(g); and (iv) each Member with a share
of the minimum gain attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" (as defined
above in this Section 4.09) shall be specially allocated items of Company income
and gain in accordance with the partner minimum chargeback requirements of
Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(i)(5). For purposes of
determining the Members' respective shares of Company nonrecourse liabilities
pursuant to Section 752 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated
thereunder, (i) a Member's interest in Company profits shall be deemed to
include the allocable share of minimum gain (as determined under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)), Code Section 704(c) gain and any Net Profits
allocable to such Member pursuant to this Article IV, and (ii) such Company
profits shall be deemed allocable to the Members in the following order of
priority: (a) first, to the Members to the extent of, and in proportion to,
their respective allocable shares of minimum gain, (b) second, to the Members to
the extent of, and in proportion to, their respective shares of Code Section

their respective negative Capital Account
balances, if any; and (d) thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their
respective Percentage Interests.
4.10 CURATIVE ALLOCATIONS
The effect of the limitation on the amount of Net Losses and the
qualified income offset provision set forth in the first two (2) sentences of
Section 4.09 above shall be taken into account in calculating subsequent
allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses pursuant to this Article IV, so that
the net amount of any items so allocated and the Net Profits, Net Losses and all
other items allocated to each Member pursuant to this Article IV shall, to the
extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to
each such Member pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV if such special
allocations had not occurred.
4.11 DIFFERING TAX BASIS; TAX ALLOCATION
The Members shall cause depreciation and/or cost recovery deductions
and gain or loss with respect to each item of property treated as contributed to
the capital of the Company to be allocated between the Members for federal
income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the
Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and for state income
tax purposes in accordance with comparable provisions of applicable state law,
so as to take into account the variation, if any, between the adjusted tax basis
of such property and its book value (as determined for purposes of the
maintenance of Capital Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g)). In the event that any property of the
Company is revalued pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f),
subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such
property shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of
such property for federal income tax purposes and its book value in the same
manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder.

As used herein the term "PROHIBITED TRANSFEREE" means any of the
following: (i) any owner, operator or manager of any "resort hotel" (as defined
in ▇▇▇▇▇ County Code Section 8.04.010) located in ▇▇▇▇▇ County, Nevada, (ii) any
shopping center owner, manager and/or developer if TrizecHahn will continue to
be a Member of the Company following the transfer, (iii) any "non-profit" or

qualifies as a tax-exempt entity under applicable federal and state tax law,
(iv) any federal, state or local governmental agency, instrumentality or other
similar entity, (v) any person or entity primarily engaged in the business of
owning or operating a casino or other similar type of gambling facility, (vi)
any person or entity that has been convicted of a felony, (vii) any person or
entity regularly engaged in or affiliated with the production or distribution of

current owner or lessee (unless such owner or lessee is an Affiliate of a
Member) of the real property located at the northeast corner of Las Vegas
Boulevard and Harmon Avenue, in the City of Las Vegas, County of ▇▇▇▇▇, State of
Nevada, or (x) to any person or entity if the consummation of such transfer
would result in a breach of or violation in any transfer restrictions contained
in any loan documentation (and/or guaranty) relative to any indebtedness
encumbering all or any portion of the Bazaar Improvements, and such transfer
restrictions are not waived by the non-transferring Member and the applicable
lender.
Any Permitted Transferee shall receive and hold such Interest or
portion thereof subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the obligations
hereunder of the transferor and there shall be no further transfer of such
Interest or portion thereof except to a person or entity to whom such Permitted
Transferee could have transferred Interest, ownership interest or portion
thereof in accordance with this Section 6.02 had such Permitted Transferee
originally been a Member or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.
6.03 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER/RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
(a) If any Member (the "TRANSFERRING MEMBER") desires to
transfer all or any portion of such Member's Interest (the "OFFERED
INTEREST") to any person or entity other than a Prohibited Transferee at
any time on or after the date of the Opening, then the Transferring Member
shall give written notice (the "FIRST OFFERING NOTICE") thereof to the
other Member (the "NON-TRANSFERRING MEMBER"). The First Offering Notice
shall specify the Offered Interest to be transferred, the purchase price
and the other terms upon which the Transferring Member intends to so
transfer. For a period of thirty (30) days following the effective date of
the First Offering Notice, the Non-Transferring Member shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Offered Interest for the purchase price (and on the other
terms) specified in
the First Offering Notice by delivering written notice of such election to
the Transferring Member.
(b) If the Non-Transferring Member fails to timely and validly
elect to purchase the Offered Interest in accordance with the terms of the
First Offering Notice (or rejects the opportunity to purchase), time being
of the essence, then, notwithstanding the failure of the Transferring
Member to obtain the consent required for the transfer of the Offered
Interest pursuant to Section 6.01, the Transferring Member may offer the
Offered Interest for sale on the open market for a period of one (1) year
following the effective date of the First Offering Notice. If, during such
one (1) year period, an offer is received from an independent third party
that is not directly or indirectly affiliated with either Member and is not
a Prohibited Transferee ("THIRD PARTY") and if the net effective purchase
price offered by such Third Party is equal to or greater than the price
previously offered to the Transferring Member and the Third Party is a
Pre-Approved Transferee, then the Transferring Member shall be permitted to
transfer the Offered Interest to such Pre-Approved Transferee without any
further consent or rights of first offer and/or refusal in favor of the
Non-Transferring Member. If the net effective purchase price offered by
such Third Party is less than the purchase price previously offered to the
Non-Transferring Member or if the purchase price is equal to or greater
than the purchase price previously offered to the Non-Transferring Member
and the Third Party is not a Pre-Approved Transferee, then the Transferring
Member shall deliver written notice (the "SECOND OFFERING NOTICE") thereof
to the Non-Transferring Member. The Second Offering Notice shall specify
the identity of the Third Party, the purchase price made in the offer by
such Third Party and the other terms of purchase. For a period of thirty
(30) days following the effective date of the Second Offering Notice, the
Non-Transferring Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Offered Interest for
the purchase price (and on the other terms) specified in the Second
Offering Notice by delivering written notice of such election to the
Transferring Member.
(c) If the Non-Transferring Member fails to timely and validly
elect to purchase the Offered Interest in accordance with the terms of the
Second Offering Notice (or rejects the opportunity to purchase), then the
Transferring Member may transfer the Offered Interest to the Third Party
identified in the Second Offering Notice at the same price and on the same
terms as are specified in the Second Offering Notice for a period of one
(1) year following the date of the Second Offering Notice without any
further consent or rights of first offer and/or refusal in favor of the
Non-Transferring Member.
(d) If the Non-Transferring Member timely and validly elects to
purchase the Offered Interest in accordance with the provisions of Section
6.03(a) or 6.03(b) above, then the closing for such purchase shall be held
at the principal office of the Company in Nevada within sixty (60) days
following the effective date of the First Offering Notice or the Second
Offering Notice, as the case may be.
(e) If the Non-Transferring Member timely and validly elects to
acquire the Offered Interest in accordance with the foregoing provisions of
this Section 6.03, but fails to consummate such purchase, then the Offered
Interest shall
thereafter be freely transferable by the Non-Transferring Member to any
Third Party without any further consent or rights of first offer and/or
refusal in favor of the Non-Transferring Member.
(f) The Members acknowledge and agree that either Member may
assign such Member's rights of first offer and/or rights of first refusal
set forth above in this Section 6.02 to any Affiliate of such Member (which
shall include, without limitation, Aladdin Gaming, in the case of Holdings
II) without the consent of the other Member so as to enable any such
Affiliate to acquire the Offered Interest.
(g) This Section 6.03 shall not apply to a transfer described in
Article VII or Article VIII below.
The term "PRE-APPROVED TRANSFEREE" means any publicly-traded real
estate investment trust, any financial institution or pension fund, any mutual
fund or other institutional investor, any investment bank, and any
publicly-traded real estate ownership or operating company with experience in
the ownership of shopping centers, in each case with assets in excess of One
Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000), and any corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, trust or private fund in which any of the foregoing
is an investor or advisor, provided that such entity also has assets in excess
of One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000.00) or is guaranteed by any one of
the foregoing entities having assets in excess of One Hundred Million Dollars
($100,000,000.00).
6.04 REGULATORY AND LENDER PROHIBITIONS
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Member may
transfer all or any portion of such Member's Interest if (i) such transfer would
result in a breach of or violation of the Nevada gaming laws or in the
regulatory requirements of the Nevada gaming authorities, or (ii) such transfer
would result in a breach of or violation in any loan documentation (and/or
guaranty) relative to any indebtedness governing all or any portion of the
Bazaar Improvements (and such restrictions are not waived by the applicable
lender).
6.05 ADMISSION OF SUBSTITUTED MEMBERS
If any Member transfers such Member's Interest to a transferee in
accordance with Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and/or Article VII, then such
transferee shall only be entitled to be admitted into the Company as a
substituted member if (a) this Agreement is amended to reflect such admission in
accordance with the provisions of the Nevada Act, (b) the non-transferring
Member reasonably approves the form and content of the instrument of transfer;
(c) the transferor and transferee named therein execute and acknowledge such
other instruments as the non-transferring Member may deem reasonably necessary
to effectuate such admission; (d) the transferee in writing accepts and adopts
all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as the same may have been
amended; and (e) the transferor pays, as the non-transferring Member may
reasonably determine, all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such
admission, including, without limitation, legal fees and costs. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, any transferee of an Interest who does not become a
substituted member shall have no right to require any information or account of
the Company's transactions, to inspect the Company books, or to vote on any of
the matters as to which a Member would be entitled to vote under this Agreement.
Any such transferee shall only be entitled to share in such Net Profits and Net
Losses, to receive such distributions, and to receive such allocations of
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or similar items to which the transferor
was entitled, to the extent assigned. A Member that transfers its Interest
shall not cease to be a member of the Company until the admission of the
transferee as a substituted member of the Company and, except as provided in the
preceding sentence, shall continue to be entitled to exercise, and shall
continue to be subject to, all of the rights, duties and obligations of such
Member under this Agreement.
6.06 ELECTION; ALLOCATIONS BETWEEN TRANSFEROR AND TRANSFEREE
In the event of the transfer of the Interest of any Member or the
distribution of any property of the Company to a Member, the Company may file,
in the reasonable discretion of the Board, an election in accordance with
applicable Treasury Regulations, to cause the basis of the Company property to
be adjusted for federal income tax purposes as provided by Sections 734 and 743
of the Code. Upon the transfer of all or any part of the Interest of a Member
as hereinabove provided, Net Profits and Net Losses shall be allocated between
the transferor and transferee on the basis of the computation method which in
the reasonable discretion of TrizecHahn, is in the best interests of the
Company, provided such method is in conformity with the methods prescribed by
Section 706 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.706-1(c)(2)(ii).
6.07 PARTITION
No Member shall have the right to partition any assets of the Company
or any interest therein, nor shall a Member make application or proceeding for a
partition thereto and, upon any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.07 by
any Member, the other Member (in addition to all rights and remedies afforded by
law or equity) shall be entitled to a decree or order restraining or enjoining
such application, action or proceeding.
6.08 WAIVER OF WITHDRAWAL AND PURCHASE RIGHTS
Except in connection with any transfer permitted pursuant to Sections
6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and/or Article VII, no Member may voluntarily withdraw, resign
or retire from the Company without the prior written consent of the other
Member, which consent may be withheld in such other Member's sole discretion.
Each Member hereby waives any and all rights such Member may have to withdraw
and/or resign from the Company pursuant to Section 18-603 of the Delaware Act
and hereby waives any and all rights such Member may have to receive the fair
value of such Member's Interest in the Company upon such withdrawal, resignation
and/or retirement pursuant to Section 18-604 of the Delaware Act.

and the other terms of purchase. For a period of thirty (30) days

the entire Interest of the Selling Member (which right may be assigned to
an Affiliate) on the terms and conditions set forth in the First Sale

to the amount that would be distributed to the Selling Member pursuant to
Section 9.02(b) if the Bazaar Improvements had been sold to the Third Party
for cash at the price set forth in the First Sale Notice, net of the Sales
Costs, and the Company was liquidated. As used herein, the term "SALES
COSTS" means any and all third-party costs and/or expenses reasonably
expected to be incurred in connection with the sale of the Bazaar
Improvements, including, without limitation, brokerage and/or sales
commissions, escrow fees, title, documentary and other transfer taxes and
the like. If the Non-Selling Member fails to timely and validly elect to
purchase the Interest of the Selling Member or rejects the opportunity to

obligation, to elect to purchase from the Non-Selling Member a one percent
(1%) residual ownership interest in the Net Profits, Net Losses and Cash
Flow of the Company (the "CONTROL INTEREST") for a purchase price equal to

multiplied by (ii) the purchase price offered by the Third Party for the

elects to purchase the Control Interest, then the closing of the purchase
and sale shall be held at the principal office of the Company in Nevada
concurrently with the close of the Selling Member's Interest in the Company
to the Third Party identified in the First Sale Notice. If the Non-Selling
Member fails to timely and validly elect to purchase the Interest of the
Selling Member, then for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days
following the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the First
Sale Notice, the Selling Member shall thereafter have the right, but not
the obligation, to sell such Member's entire Interest in the Company
(including, without limitation, the Control Interest) to the Third Party
identified in the First Sale Notice for a purchase price equal to the
Selling Member's Purchase Price, plus the Control Premium without any
further consent or rights of first offer and/or refusal in favor of the
Non-Selling Member. From and after the date of the acquisition of the
Control Premium, (i) the Third Party identified in the First Sale Notice
shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to appoint one (1) additional voting representative to the
Board and (ii) the Non-Selling Member shall have no right to appoint any
representatives to the Board, and the voting rights of the Non-Selling
Member under the Agreement shall be limited solely to those expressly
mandated by the Delaware Act.

by delivering written notice thereof to the other Member.
(b) If any offer is received by the Company and/or the Selling
Member for the Bazaar Improvements and the Selling Member desires to sell
on such terms but the Non-Selling member does not, then the Selling Member
shall deliver written notice thereof (the "PROJECT SALE NOTICE") to the
Non-Selling Member. The Project Sale Notice shall specify the identity of
the Third Party, the purchase price made in the offer by such Third Party
and the other terms of purchase. For a period of thirty (30) days
following the effective date of the Project Sale Notice, the Non-Selling
Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase
the entire Interest of the Selling Member on the terms and conditions set
forth in the Project Sale Notice for a purchase price equal to the amount
that would be distributed to the Selling Member pursuant to Section 9.02(b)
if the Bazaar Improvements had been sold to the Third Party for cash at the
price set forth in the Project Sale Notice, net of the Sales Costs, and the
Company was liquidated. If the Non-Selling Member fails to timely and
validly elect to purchase the Selling Member's Interest (or rejects the
opportunity to purchase), then the Selling Member shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to cause the Company to sell the Bazaar Improvements to
the Third Party specified in the Project Sale Notice at the same price and
on the same terms specified in the Project Sale Notice without any further
consent or rights of first offer and/or refusal in favor of the Non-Selling
Member.
7.03 GENERAL SALES PROCEDURES
(a) If the Non-Selling Member timely and validly elects to

sale of the Bazaar Improvements and/or the Selling Member's Interest to any
Third Party without any further consent or rights of first offer and/or
refusal in favor of the Non-Selling Member.
(c) The Members acknowledge and agree that the Non-Selling
Member may assign such Member's rights of first refusal set forth above in
this
Article VII to any Affiliate of such Member without the consent of the
other Member so as to enable any such Affiliate to acquire the Interest of
the Selling Member.

(a) DETERMINATION OF APPRAISED VALUE. For purposes of this
Article VIII, the appraised value ("APPRAISED VALUE") of the assets of the
Company shall be determined by real estate appraiser(s) all of whom shall
be independent qualified M.A.I. appraisers. The Non-Defaulting Member
shall select one (1) appraiser. The Defaulting
Member shall either agree to the appraiser selected by the Non-Defaulting
Member or select a second appraiser within fifteen (15) days of the
Effective Date of the Default Notice and give written notice to the
Non-Defaulting Member of the person so selected. In the event of the
failure of the Defaulting Member to appoint such an appraiser within the
times specified and after expiration of five (5) days following the
Effective Date of written demand that an appraiser be appointed, the
appraiser duly appointed by the Non-Defaulting Member shall proceed to make
the appraisal as herein set forth and the determination thereof shall be
conclusive on all the Members.
If two (2) appraisers are selected, then such selected appraisers
shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) appraiser. If the two (2) selected
appraisers fail to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser within ten (10) days
following the Effective Date of written notice from the Defaulting Member
notifying the Non-Defaulting Member of the selection of the second (2nd)
appraiser, then any Member may petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser in the same manner as provided for the
appointment of an arbitrator pursuant to Section 11.14.
The appraiser or three appraisers, as the case may be, shall
promptly fix a time for the completion of the appraisal which shall not be
later than thirty (30) days from the date of appointment of the last
appraiser.
The appraiser(s) shall determine the Appraised Value by
determining the fair market value of the assets of the Company, such fair
market value being the fairest price estimated in terms of money which the
Company could obtain if such assets were sold in the open market, allowing
a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases with knowledge of the
uses which such assets in their then condition are adapted and for which
such assets are capable of being used as of the Effective Date of the
Default Notice.
Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as
to the appraised value of the assets of the Company, (A) if only one (1)
appraiser is selected, then such appraisal shall constitute the Appraised
Value of the assets of the Company, or (B) if three (3) appraisers are
selected, then the two (2) such appraisals which are nearest in amount
shall be retained, and the third appraisal shall be discarded. The average
of the two (2) retained appraisals shall constitute the Appraised Value of
the assets of the Company, unless one (1) appraisal is the mean of the
other two (2) appraisals in which case such appraisal shall constitute the
Appraised Value.
(b) PAYMENT OF COSTS. The Defaulting Member shall pay for the
services of the accountant and the services of all appraisers appointed
pursuant to this Section 8.03 (the "APPRAISAL COSTS"), or at the
Non-Defaulting Member's election, the Non-Defaulting Member may pay such
costs and reduce the Purchase Price by such amount.
8.04 NON-DEFAULTING MEMBER'S OPTION
For a period of thirty (30) days following the Effective Date of the
Price Determination Notice, the Non-Defaulting Member shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to
elect to purchase the entire Defaulting Member's Interest for the Purchase Price
thereof (as adjusted pursuant to Section 8.08), and on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Article VIII by giving written notice thereof to the
Defaulting Member within such thirty (30)-day period.
8.05 CLOSING OF PURCHASE AND SALE
The closing of a purchase pursuant to this Article VIII shall be held
at the principal office of the Company in Nevada on or before the ninetieth
(90th) day after the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period set forth in
Section 8.04, or such longer period if reasonably necessary in order to obtain
any required bankruptcy court approval. The Defaulting Member shall transfer to
the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) the entire Interest of
the Defaulting Member free and clear of all liens, security interests, and
competing claims and shall deliver to the Non-Defaulting Member (or such
Member's nominee(s)) such instruments of transfer and such evidence of due
authorization, execution, and delivery, and of the absence of any such liens,
security interests, or competing claims as such Non-Defaulting Member (or such
Member's nominee(s)) shall reasonably request.
8.06 PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE
The Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 8.08) shall be
paid by the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) at the closing,
in cash or one (1) or more certified or bank cashier's checks drawn and made
payable to the order of the Defaulting Member for an amount equal to twenty
percent (20%) (or more at the election of the Non-Defaulting Member) of the
Purchase Price and a nonrecourse promissory note in an amount equal to the
balance of such Purchase Price executed by the Non-Defaulting Member (or such
Member's nominee(s)).
Any promissory note shall bear simple (non-compounded) interest at the
then current prime rate as most recently reported by the Western Edition of the
Wall Street Journal (or, if less, the maximum non-usurious rate then permitted
by law for such loans), and shall be repayable only from such funds as may
thereafter be received by the Non-Defaulting Member on account of the
Non-Defaulting Member's purchase of the Interest of the Defaulting Member
hereunder, which funds would otherwise have been received by the Defaulting
Member from the Company but for such purchase. Except for the Non-Defaulting
Member's proportionate share of such funds, the Defaulting Member shall have no
recourse whatsoever against any other property or assets of the Non-Defaulting
Member for the repayment of such promissory note. Until such time as all
principal and accrued interest under such promissory note has been paid in full,
payments thereunder shall be made quarterly, commencing with the first calendar
quarter from the date of closing. Each such quarterly payment shall be equal to
the Non-Defaulting Member's proportionate share of the aggregate amount of such
funds received and collected by the Non-Defaulting Member (if any) that would
have otherwise been received by the Defaulting Member but for such purchase
during the calendar quarter period immediately preceding the date of such
payment. All payments under such promissory note shall first be credited
against accrued interest and thereafter against principal. Notwithstanding
anything contained hereinabove to the contrary, if any such promissory note has
not been paid in full (together with all accrued interest thereon) on or before
the expiration of five (5) years from the date of closing, such promissory
note shall be deemed canceled in full, and the Defaulting Member shall be
entitled to no further payments of principal or interest thereunder.
8.07 RELEASE
On or before the closing of a purchase held pursuant to this Article
VIII, the Non-Defaulting Member shall use such Member's reasonable efforts
(without the obligation to incur additional costs or liabilities) to obtain
written releases of the Defaulting Member (and/or such Member's Affiliates) from
all liabilities of the Company and from all guarantees of such liabilities of
the Company previously executed by the Defaulting Member (and/or its
Affiliates).
8.08 REPAYMENT OF MEMBER LOANS
The Purchase Price to be paid by the Non-Defaulting Member for the
Interest of the Defaulting Member shall be offset at the closing of such
purchase by the then outstanding principal balance of any and all Member Loan(s)
(together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Non-Defaulting
Member to the Defaulting Member. Such Member Loan(s) (together with all
accrued, unpaid interest thereon) shall be deemed paid to the extent of such
offset, with such deemed payment to be applied first to the accrued interest
thereon and thereafter to the payment of the outstanding principal amount
thereof. If the Purchase Price for the Defaulting Member's Interest is
insufficient to fully offset the then unpaid principal balance of any and all
Default Loans (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the
Non-Defaulting Member to the Defaulting Member, then the portion of any such
Member Loan(s) (and accrued, unpaid interest thereon) that remains outstanding
following such offset shall be due and payable in full at the closing of the
purchase of the Defaulting Member's Interest pursuant to this Article VIII. Any
Member Loans offset against the Purchase Price to be paid by the Non-Defaulting
Member shall be applied first to reduce the portion of the Purchase Price, if
any, to be paid with cash or by certified or bank cashier's check and thereafter
to reduce the portion of the Purchase Price, if any, to be paid by the delivery
of a promissory note.
8.09 VOTING RIGHTS FOLLOWING BUY/SELL EVENT
From and after the occurrence of a Buy/Sell Event, (i) the Defaulting
Member shall not be entitled to participate in the management of the Company or
appoint a representative to the Board, or otherwise vote upon, any matter
affecting the business and affairs of, the Company or any matter that such
Member is entitled to vote upon under this Agreement, and (ii) the rights of the
Defaulting Member shall be limited solely to those of an assignee as set forth
in Section 6.05.

retirement, reorganization or other event of non-compliance with this Agreement,

substantial hardship to the Company and the remaining Member(s) and shall

11.13 ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES
Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement,
or the claimed breach or interpretation thereof, including, but not limited to,
any impasse reached by the Board pursuant to Section 2.04, shall be resolved by
binding arbitration, subject to the following additional provisions:
(a) The Member seeking arbitration ("DEMANDING MEMBER") shall
deliver a written notice of demand to resolve dispute (the "DEMAND") to the
other Member ("NON-DEMANDING MEMBER"). The demand shall include a brief
statement of the Demanding Member's claim or controversy, the amount
thereof, and the name of the proposed arbitrator to decide the dispute
("ARBITRATOR"). Within ten (10) days after receipt of the demand, the
Non-Demanding Member against whom a demand is made shall deliver a written
response to the Demanding Member. Such response shall include a short and
plain statement of the Non-Demanding Member's defenses to the claim and
shall also state whether such Member agrees to the arbitrator chosen by the
Demanding Member. If the Non-Demanding Member fails to agree to the
arbitrator chosen by the Demanding Member, then such Non-Demanding Member
shall state in its response the name of the proposed arbitrator chosen by
such Non-Demanding Member as the proposed arbitrator. If the Non-Demanding
Member fails to deliver its written response to the
Demanding Member within ten (10) days after receipt of the demand, or if
the Non-Demanding Member fails to select in its written response a proposed
arbitrator, then the arbitrator selected by the Demanding Member shall
serve as the arbitrator. An arbitrator shall not be employed by any Member
or its Affiliate, directly, indirectly or as an agent, except in connection
with the arbitration proceeding. Any person appointed as an arbitrator
shall be knowledgeable and experienced in the matters sought to be
arbitrated. As examples, if the arbitrable dispute deals with construction
issues, the arbitrator so appointed shall be experienced and knowledgeable
as to construction practice of shopping centers.
(b) The locale of the arbitration shall be in Las Vegas, Nevada.
(c) If the Non-Demanding Member selects a proposed arbitrator
different than the arbitrator selected by the Demanding Member, and such
selection is indicated by the Non-Demanding Member in its written response
to the Demanding Member made within ten (10) days after receipt of the
demand, then the parties shall, for ten (10) days after the Demanding
Member's receipt of the Non-Demanding Member's written response to the
demand, attempt to agree upon an arbitrator. If the parties cannot agree
upon an arbitrator within said ten (10) day period, then a single neutral
arbitrator shall be appointed by the then Presiding Judge of the Eighth
Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, acting in his individual
and nonofficial capacity on the application of the Demanding Member.
(d) The arbitrator's powers shall be limited as follows: the
arbitrator shall follow the substantive laws of the State of Nevada (or, to
the extent the dispute requires the interpretation or operation of this
Agreement under the Delaware Act, the substantive laws of the State of
Delaware), and the Rules of Evidence of Nevada, and his/her decision shall
be subject to review thereon as would the decision of the Presiding Judge
of the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada sitting
without a jury.
(e) The costs of the resolution (including all reporter costs)
shall be split between the Members prorata in accordance with their
Percentage Interests, provided, however, that such costs, along with all
other costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, shall be subject to
award, in full or in part, by the arbitrator, in his/her discretion, to the
prevailing party. Unless the arbitrator so awards attorneys' fees, each
Member shall be responsible for its own attorneys' fees.
(f) To the extent possible, the arbitration hearings shall be
conducted on consecutive days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays,
until the completion of the hearings.
(g) In connection with any arbitration proceedings commenced
hereunder, either Member shall have the right to join any third parties in
such proceedings in order to resolve any other disputes, the facts of which
are related to the matters submitted for arbitration hereunder.
(h) The arbitrator shall render her/his decision(s) concerning
the substantive issue(s) in dispute in writing. The written decision shall
be sent to the parties no later than thirty (30) days following the last
hearing date.
(i) All hearings shall be concluded within ninety (90) days from
the day the arbitrator is selected or appointed, unless the arbitrator
determines that this deadline is impractical.
(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the dispute
concerns a deadlock by the Board to deliver a notice of default under the
Management Agreement or Development Agreement pursuant to Section 2.04(f)
above, then all hearings shall be concluded and the arbitrator shall render
his/her decision within thirty (30) days of the date of the Demand, unless
the arbitrator determines that this deadline is impractical.
(k) If any of the provisions relating to arbitration are not
adhered to or complied with either party may petition the Presiding Judge
of the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, for
appropriate relief.
(l) The award of the arbitrator may be entered as a judgment in
a court of competent jurisdiction. All arbitration conducted under this
Section 11.13 shall be in accordance with the rules of the American
Arbitration Association to the extent such rules do not conflict with the
procedures herein set forth. To the extent permitted by law, compliance
with this Section 11.13 is a condition precedent to the commencement by any
Member of a judicial proceeding arising out of any dispute relating
directly or indirectly to this Agreement.
