its relationship with existing potential customers and clients; and (iii)
fully comply with and perform in all material respects all duties and
obligations imposed on it by all federal and state laws and all rules,
regulations, and orders imposed by all federal or state governmental
authorities.
(b) Neither ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ nor Silver Strike will (i) make any change in its
Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws except and unless as contemplated pursuant
to Section 3 of this Plan; (ii) enter into or amend any contract, agreement,
or other instrument of the types described in the parties' schedules, except

properties, business, or operations of Silver Strike.
6.3 No Material Adverse Change. Prior to the Closing date, there shall have
not occurred any material adverse change in the final condition, business or
