6. Remedies Upon Event of Default.
6.1 If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to Nevada Gaming Law, Trustee shall have the right, at its election, but not the obligation, to do any of the following, subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Laws: (i) notify the Pledged Subsidiaries to pay all dividends on the Stock to Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders; (ii) receive and collect all such dividends and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as Trustee may determine; (iii) register all of the Stock in the name of Trustee or its nominee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, and Trustee or its nominee may thereafter exercise (A) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to the Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the Pledge Subsidiaries or otherwise, and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Stock as if Trustee were the absolute owner thereof; (iv) demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable to or receivable by Pledgor on account of or in exchange for all or any part of the Collateral; (v) cause any action at law or suit in equity or other proceeding to be instituted and prosecuted to (A) collect or enforce any Obligations or rights hereunder or included in the Collateral, including specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained herein, (B) foreclose or enforce the security interest in all or any part of the Collateral granted herein, or (C) enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in it by this Agreement or by law; (vi) sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral or cause all or any part of the Collateral to be sold or otherwise disposed of in one or more sales or transactions, at such prices and in such manner as Trustee may deem appropriate, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery, at any broker's board or at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to sell or of time or place of sale (except such notice which under applicable law cannot be waived), it being agreed that Trustee may be a purchaser on behalf of the Noteholders or on its own behalf at any such sale and that Trustee or any other Person who may be a bona fide purchaser for value and without notice of any claims of any or all of the Collateral so sold shall thereafter hold the same absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption, of Pledgor or the Pledged Subsidiaries, any such demand, notice or right and equity being hereby expressly waived and released; (vii) incur expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, consultants' fees, and other costs appropriate to the exercise of any right or power under this Agreement; (viii) perform any obligation of Pledgor hereunder; (ix) secure the appointment of a receiver for Pledgor without notice to the Pledgor or the Pledged Subsidiaries; or (x) exercise any other or additional rights or remedies granted to a secured party under the UCC. If, pursuant to applicable law, prior written notice of any such action is required to be given to Pledgor or the Pledged Subsidiaries, Pledgor and the Pledged Subsidiaries hereby acknowledge and agree that the minimum time required by
4
such applicable law, or if no minimum is specified, of five business days, shall be deemed a reasonable notice period.
6.2 All costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, consultants' fees and other related costs) incurred by Trustee in connection with exercising any remedy provided for herein or at law, or performing any of Pledgor's agreements contained herein or in respect of any part of the Collateral, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law computed from the date on which such costs or expenses are incurred to the date of payment thereof, shall constitute part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement and shall be paid by the Pledgor to Trustee on demand.
6.3 If Trustee shall decide to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Collateral for the benefit of the Noteholders, and if in the opinion of counsel for the Trustee it is necessary to have such Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or otherwise registered or qualified under any federal or state securities laws or regulations (collectively, the "Securities Laws"), Pledgor and the Pledged Subsidiaries will execute and deliver, all at Pledgor's expense, all such instruments and documents which, in the opinion of Trustee, are necessary to register or qualify such Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Laws. Pledgor and the Pledged Subsidiaries will execute and will use best efforts to cause any registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of not less than six months from the date of the first public offering of such Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, and to make all amendments thereto and/or to any related prospectus or similar document which, in the reasonable opinion of Trustee, are necessary, all in conformity with the Securities Laws applicable thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pledgor agrees to comply with the provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any jurisdiction(s) which Trustee shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act of 1933.
6.4 So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Pledgor reserves the right to exercise all of its rights as the holder of the Stock (except as limited by the terms of the Indenture) and to receive all income and other distributions arising therefrom (except as limited by the Indenture).
7. Remedies Cumulative; Delay Not Waiver.
7.1 No right, power or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, and every such right, power and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. Resort to any or all security now or hereafter held by Trustee, may be taken concurrently or successively and in one or several consolidated or independent judicial actions or lawfully taken nonjudicial proceedings, or both.
7.2 No delay or omission of Trustee to exercise any right or power accruing upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every power and remedy given by this Agreement may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by Trustee.
7.3 All notice and cure periods provided herein, in the Indenture or in any other Loan Document shall run concurrently with any notice or cure period, provided by law.
5

8.4 Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, the Trustee agrees that prior to exercising any remedies set forth in Section 6 hereof or elsewhere with respect to the Collateral it shall obtain any and all consents and approvals required under such statute or regulations.
9. Attorney-in-Fact. Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Trustee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor, Trustee or otherwise, from time to time in Trustee's discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument to enforce all rights of Pledgor with respect to the Collateral, including, without limitation, the right to ask, require, demand, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys and claims for money due and to become due under or arising out of the Collateral; to elect remedies thereunder, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith; to vote, demand, receive and enforce Pledgor's rights with respect to the Collateral; to give appropriate receipts, releases and satisfactions for and on behalf of and in the name of Pledgor or, at the option of Trustee, in the name of Trustee, with the same force and effect as Pledgor could do if this Agreement had not been made; and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings in connection therewith which Trustee may reasonably deem to be necessary or advisable; provided, however, Trustee shall not exercise such rights unless upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.
10. Perfection.
10.1 Pledgor shall (i) deliver the Collateral or any part thereof to Trustee, as Trustee may request, accompanied by such duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment as Trustee may request, and (ii) execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments, endorsements or notices, as may be reasonably necessary or
6
desirable or as Trustee may request, in order to perfect and preserve the assignments and security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby.
10.2 Pledgor hereby authorizes Trustee to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of Pledgor where permitted by law.
10.3 Pledgor shall, promptly upon request, provide to Trustee all information and evidence it may reasonably request concerning the Collateral to enable Trustee to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.
11. Termination of Security Interest. This Agreement and the security interest and all other rights granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Pledgor upon either (i) the indefeasible payment and performance in full of the Obligations or (ii) the agreement to such termination by the parties to the Indenture in accordance with the provisions of thereof. Upon any such termination, Trustee will return all certificates evidencing ownership interests in the Pledged Subsidiaries to Pledgor and will, at Pledgor's expense, execute and deliver to Pledgor such documents (including, without limitation, UCC-3 termination statements) as Pledgor may reasonably request to evidence such termination.
12. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of Trustee and the security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:
12.1 Any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantee or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
12.2 Any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of the Obligations (including any increase in the amount thereof), or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantee;
12.3 Any exchange, surrender, release or non-perfection of any Collateral;
12.4 Any bankruptcy or insolvency of Pledgor or any other Person; or
12.5 Any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Pledgor or a third party pledgor.
13. Limitation on Duty of Trustee with Respect to the Collateral. The powers conferred on Trustee hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for monies actually received by it hereunder, Trustee shall have no duty with respect to any Collateral. Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment that is substantially equivalent to that which Trustee accords its own property, it being expressly agreed, to the maximum extent permitted by law, that Trustee shall have no responsibility for (a) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Collateral, but Trustee may do so and all expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be part of the Obligations or (b) taking any action to protect against any diminution in value of the Collateral. Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to file financing statements and in acting hereunder the Trustee shall be accorded all benefits, privileges, protections, immunities and indemnities given to it under the Indenture.
14. Amendments; Waivers; Consents. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or consent to any departure by Pledgor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Pledgor and Trustee.
15. Notices. All notices required or permitted under the terms and provisions hereof shall be in writing and any such notice shall be effective if given in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.02
7
