ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of April 30, 2007 (this “Agreement”), is by and between Hedwigs Las Vegas Top Tier, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (“Purchaser”) and 155 East Tropicana, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, (“Seller”).

Seller owns and operates a hotel located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇. in Las Vegas Nevada (the “Hotel”), a casino located at the Hotel (the “Casino”) and various related retail operations, including restaurants, stores and other amenities (the “Other Operations”). The Hotel, the Casino and the Other Operations are collectively referred to herein as the “Business.” Seller desires to sell to Purchaser and Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller substantially all of Seller’s assets and to assume certain of Seller’s liabilities. Purchaser has deposited or will deposit in escrow the sum of $3,000,000 under the terms of the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the “Escrow Agreement”). In order to provide for the lawful continuation of the operations of the Casino, Purchaser shall lease back the Casino operation to Seller as provided in a Casino Operating Lease Agreement to be negotiated and agreed upon by and between Seller and Purchaser on or before 5:00 p.m., pst, May 7, 2007 (the “Lease Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

1.1 Purchase and Sale of Assets. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing Seller shall sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase, acquire and accept from Seller all of Seller’s assets of whatever kind nature or description, other than the Excluded Assets. The assets to be purchased by Purchaser from Seller are hereinafter referred to as the “Purchased Assets” and include, without limitation:

(a) the Real Property;

(b) the Assignable Licenses;

(d) the Seller Intellectual Property;

(e) the Contract Rights;

(f) the Equipment;

(g) the Lease Rights;

(h) the Insurance Rights; and

(i) Seller’s rights in telephone numbers, domain names and other, similar items used directly in the conduct of the Business.

Seller shall convey to Purchaser all of the Purchased Assets free and clear of all Liens applicable to or suffered to exist by Seller, other than Permitted Liens; provided, however, that the Gaming Assets shall not be conveyed at Closing, shall be retained by the Seller during the term of the Lease Agreement and shall be conveyed to Purchaser or its assignee concurrently with the termination of the Lease Term.

1.2 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not sell to Purchaser and Purchaser shall not purchase from Seller any of the following (the “Excluded Assets”), all defined in accordance with GAAP:

(a) Seller’s rights under Contracts that are not Assumed Contracts or Assumed Leases;

(b) any rights under Licenses that Seller may not lawfully transfer to Purchaser;

(d) the Cash;

(e) the Receivables;

(f) the Business Records (provided that Purchaser shall be entitled to receive copies thereof as reasonably necessary for its conduct of the Business);

(g) the General Intangibles, other than those specifically enumerated in Section 1.1;

(h) Prepaids;

(i) Deposits;

(j) Notes Deferred Financing Costs;

(k) Credit Line Deferred Financing Costs; and

(l) the assets listed in Schedule 1.2.

1.3 Assumed Liabilities. At the Closing, Purchaser shall assume (i) the principal amount, any penalties attributable to the Transactions, and any premium (but not any accrued interest or penalty not attributable to the Transactions) under the Notes (the “Indebtedness”); (ii) the Advance Deposits; and (iii) Seller’s obligations under the Assumed Contracts and the Assumed Leases; provided, however, that Purchaser shall assume the foregoing liabilities to the extent, but only to the extent that the nature and amount of such obligations are apparent on the face of the instruments defining the Indebtedness, the Assumed Contracts or the Assumed

Leases, as the case may be, or from information provided by Seller to Purchaser in writing and acknowledged in writing by Purchaser prior to the date hereof, and provided further that all warranty liabilities and all liabilities for breaches of or defaults relating to, or any past due payment or performance obligation under, any Indebtedness, Assumed Contract or Assumed Lease prior to the Closing are not assumed and shall be the sole responsibility of Seller (the “Non-Gaming Liabilities”).

The Gaming Liabilities shall not be assumed at Closing, but shall remain the obligation of the Seller during the term of the Lease Agreement and shall be assumed by Purchaser or its assignee concurrently with the termination of the Lease Term. The Non-Gaming Liabilities and the Gaming Liabilities are collectively referred to herein as the “Assumed Liabilities.”

1.4 Excluded Liabilities. Except for the Assumed Liabilities, Purchaser shall not assume, by virtue of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall have no liability for, any debts, liabilities or obligations of Seller of any kind, character or description whatsoever except as otherwise agreed to in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall not, other than as a result of assuming the Assumed Contracts and the Notes, assume any obligation for Intercompany Liabilities.

1.5 Purchase Price. The consideration of the sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets to Purchaser, shall consist of the Cash Purchase Price and the assumption by Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities. The Cash Purchase Price shall be (i) Ninety Five Million dollars ($95,000,000) plus (ii) the cash amount of the Accrued Royalty, plus (iii) any obligations under any notes executed by Seller under the Lease Agreement (including accrued interest and penalties) and shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.8.

1.6 Purchase Price Payable at Closing. At the Closing, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall, pay to Seller at the Closing in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by each Seller in writing at least two (2) Business Days before the Closing Date, an amount equal to the sum of (i) eighty five million dollars ($85,000,000), plus (ii) the cash amount of the Accrued Royalty, minus (ii) the amount of the distribution to Seller pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

1.7 Purchase Price Payable at the End of the Lease Term. At the end of the Lease Term, Purchaser shall pay to Seller, in a manner consistent with the instructions and methodology provided in Section 1.6, the additional sum of (i) Ten Million dollars ($10,000,000), plus (ii) the amount of any outstanding loans to Seller under the Lease Agreement (including accrued interest and penalties), reduced by (iii) the amount of any Settled Claims in favor of Purchaser; provided no reduction will be made for Claims related to Seller’s obligations under the Lease Agreement including any obligations under any notes issued by Seller pursuant to the Lease Agreement. Upon the payment of the remaining amounts owing under this Section 1.7, Seller shall convey good and marketable title to all Gaming Assets to Purchaser.

The amount paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Section 1.7 may be reduced by an amount of a Third Party Claim or such lesser amount as Purchaser and Seller reasonably agree (the “Third Party Holdback”) if and only if (a) the Third Party Claim is against both Purchaser and Seller; (b) the Third Party Claim arises from intentional misdeeds, including but not limited

to intentional torts, intentional crimes or fraud; (c) the Third Party Claim is not fully covered by an insurance policy of either Seller or Purchaser; (d) the Third Party Holdback is deposited, together with an amount paid by Purchaser equal to the Third Party Holdback, in an independent escrow account pending the resolution of the Third Party Claim; (e) Seller has the right to defend itself against the Third Party Claim; and (f) the escrow terms provide that any Third Party Holdback not otherwise distributed in satisfaction of a Third Party Claim shall following the final resolution of the Third Party Claim shall be promptly distributed to Seller. In addition, the amount paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Section 1.7 may be further reduced by the amount Purchaser reasonably anticipates expending on its defense of such Third Party Claim, provided that such amount is deposited, together with an amount equal thereto in an independent escrow account pending the resolution of the Third Party Claim (collectively the “Defense Holdback”) and further provided that the Defense Holdback shall upon the final resolution of the Third Party Claim be utilized to fund the indemnity obligations of the parties under Section 6.1(j).

The amount paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Section 1.7 may be reduced by an amount of a Direct Claim (the “Direct Holdback”) if and only if (a) the Direct Claim shall be settled by arbitration to be administered by JAMS in accordance with its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect; (b) judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof; (c) at the conclusion of arbitration, the arbitrator shall issue an award in writing setting forth the basis for the award; (d) the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and conclusive, and the Purchaser and Seller waive the right to trial de novo or appeal; (e) the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorney’s fees; (f) the Direct Holdback is deposited in an independent escrow account pending the resolution of the Direct Claim; (g) the escrow terms provide that any Direct Holdback amount remaining in escrow following the payment to Purchaser of any arbitration award under this Section 1.7 shall be promptly distributed to Seller.

1.8 Purchase Price Adjustment. On the day prior to the Closing Date, representatives of Purchaser and Seller shall take a physical inventory of the Inventory as of the Cutoff Time and shall determine the amount of Advance Deposits. If the Inventory, as so determined, exceeds the amount of the Advance Deposits, Purchaser shall promptly pay the difference to Seller. If the Inventory, as so determined, is less than the amount of the Advance Deposits, Seller shall promptly pay the difference to Purchaser. In the event of any disagreement as to the amount of any payment required under this Section 1.8, each party shall state its position as to the amount of the required payment and the identity of the payor and payee and the matter shall be referred to an independent arbitrator selected by the parties (or if the parties cannot agree on an independent arbitrator, by a Las Vegas Court to which either party may apply for that purpose) and the decision of such arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties. The cost of any such arbitrator shall be borne by the party whose stated position was most different from the arbitrator’s ruling.

1.9 Allocation of Purchase Price; Tax Filings. Within sixty (60) days of the date of this Agreement, Seller shall provide to Purchaser its proposed schedule of allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). In the event that Purchaser does not agree with Seller’s proposed Purchase Price Allocation, or any portion thereof, Purchaser and Seller shall endeavor in good faith to resolve such disagreement within

thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve such disagreement within such time period, then any disputed matter(s) will be finally and conclusively resolved by an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing with no existing relationship with either party that is mutually selected by Purchaser and Seller (the “Auditor”) as promptly as practicable, and such resolution(s) will be reflected on the schedule of the Purchase Price Allocation. The fees and expenses of the Auditor shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser and Seller agree to act in accordance with the Purchase Price Allocation in any relevant Tax Returns or filings, including Form 8594 and any forms or reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations or any similar provisions of local, state and foreign law, and shall not take any position on any Tax Return inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by a final determination of a Tax Authority.

1.10 Closing. Promptly upon execution of this Agreement, the Lease Agreement, the Assignment Agreement and the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, Purchaser shall deposit with the escrow agent such amount as shall be required to cause its aggregate cash deposit in escrow to be $3,000,000. Seller shall as promptly as possible notify Purchaser, and Purchaser shall as promptly as possible notify Seller, when the conditions set forth in ARTICLE V to such party’s obligations to complete the Transactions have been satisfied or waived. Subject to Section 7.1(a)(iv), the closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, or at such other time, date and place as Seller and Purchaser may agree in writing. If the Closing occurs, it shall be deemed to have occurred at the Cutoff Time. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

1.11 Closing Obligations.

(a) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered from escrow or otherwise, to Purchaser:

(i) The Transfer Documents relating to the Purchased Assets to be transferred at Closing;

(ii) the officer’s certificates described in Section 5.2(c); and

(iii) certifications establishing exemption from withholding required pursuant to federal, state or local real estate withholding upon the transfer of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise out of or in connection with the Transactions.

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered from escrow or otherwise, to Seller:

(i) the payment called for in Section 1.6, reduced by any applicable Tax or other withholding, which shall be treated as paid to Seller for the purpose of this Agreement; and

(ii) the Officer’s Certificate described in Section 5.3(c).

1.12 Deferral of Transfer of Certain Assets. The Gaming Assets shall not be transferred at the Closing and, instead, shall be transferred to Purchaser or its assignee at the end of the Lease Term, subject to the payment of the amounts provided in Section 1.7.

1.13 Adjustment and Prorations. The matters and items set forth below shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser or, where applicable, credited in total to a particular party:

(a) Taxes. All real and personal property taxes, special assessments and tax rebates, if any, whether payable in installments or not, and whether due and payable or not, shall be prorated as of the Cutoff Time. If such taxes for the tax year in which the Closing occurs have not been finally determined on the Closing Date, then such taxes shall be prorated on an estimated basis using the most current information available. When such taxes have been finally determined, the parties shall recalculate such prorations and any amount payable by Seller or Purchaser shall be paid to the other party within fifteen (15) days after such taxes are finally determined.

(b) Room Rentals. One-half (50%) of the room rentals attributable to the night prior to the Closing Date shall be the property of Seller and the remaining one-half (50%) shall be the property of Purchaser. Room rentals attributable to any night prior to the night prior to the Closing Date shall be the property of Seller.

(c) Other Receipts. All receipts of the Business (other than receipts from gaming activities managed under the Lease Agreement) shall be the property of Seller if received prior to the Cutoff Time and the property of Purchaser if received after the Cutoff Time. Receipts from gaming activities managed under the Lease Agreement shall be the property of Seller as provided in the Lease Agreement.

(d) Utilities. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall notify all utility companies servicing the Property of the anticipated change in ownership of the Purchased Assets and request that all ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ after the Closing be made to Purchaser. Utility meters will be read, to the extent that the utility company will do so, during the daylight hours on the Closing Date, with charges to that time paid by Seller and charges thereafter paid by Purchaser. Prepaid utility charges shall be adjusted on the closing statement and paid for at Closing. Charges for utilities which are unmetered, or the meters for which have not been read on the Closing Date, will be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date based upon utility ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ received after Closing. Seller or Purchaser, as appropriate, shall, upon receipt, submit a copy of the utility ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for any such charges to the other party and such party shall pay its pro-rata share of such charges to the party requesting payment within seven (7) days from the date of any such request. This obligation shall survive Closing.

Purchaser shall be responsible for paying, before the Closing, all deposits required by utility companies in order to continue service at the Property for periods after the Closing Date and shall take any other action and make any other payments required to assure uninterrupted

availability of utilities at the Property for all periods after Closing. Following Closing, all utility deposits made by Seller may be refunded directly to Seller by the utility company holding same.

(e) Insurance. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Lease Agreement, all of Seller’s insurance policies, including, without limitation, fire and any additional hazard insurance, may be cancelled by Seller as of the Closing Date, and any refunded premiums shall be retained by Seller. Purchaser will be responsible for acquiring and placing its own insurance in force from and after the Closing Date. Up to and including the date and time of Closing, Seller and its insurer(s) shall be liable for any claims for personal injury. After Closing, Purchaser and its insurer(s) shall be responsible for any such claims arising on and after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.13(e), Seller shall take and/or refrain from taking such action as may be required to maintain the Insurance Rights for the benefit of Purchaser.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Seller has all requisite limited liability company power and authority and all necessary Permits to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except where any failure to have such power and authority or Permits would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has made available to Purchaser prior to the Closing complete and correct copies of the articles of organization and operating agreement of Seller as in effect as of the date hereof. Seller does not own (wholly or partially) any subsidiary entities other than 155 East Tropicana Finance Corp.

2.2 Authorizations, Consents and Approvals; No Violations.

(a) The execution of this Agreement and all related agreements to be executed by Seller and the consummation of the Transactions has been duly and validly approved by all required action of Seller and its members and no such approval has been revoked or rescinded.

(b) Except (i) for the filing of notification and report forms with the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) and the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period thereunder, and (ii) any required approval of the Transactions by the Nevada Gaming Commission and the ▇▇▇▇▇ County Gaming and Liquor Licensing Board, and no material applications, notices to, consultations with, Consents of or filings with, any Government Authority, self-regulatory authority or third party are necessary in

connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions.

(c) Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions, does or will (i) conflict with in any material respect, or result in any breach of, any provisions of the articles of organization or operating agreement of Seller; (ii) conflict with, result in or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Material Contract to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound, except where such conflicts, results or defaults would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) conflict with, result in or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Permit of Seller; or (iv) subject to giving the notices and obtaining the approvals referred to in Section (a) above, conflict with or violate any Order or Law applicable to Seller, or applicable to any of its properties or assets.

2.3 Compliance with Laws, Generally. Seller is in compliance with all applicable Laws, Orders and Permits except for failures so to comply that would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof Seller has not, in the last two (2) years, received any written communication from any Governmental Authority alleging that Seller is not in compliance with any applicable Law, Order or Permit that has not been resolved.

2.4 Compliance with Gaming Laws.

(a) Section 2.4 of the Disclosure Schedule contains a correct and complete list of all Gaming Approvals and other material licenses, certifications and permits for the gaming operations conducted at the Casino (and the holder or operator thereof).

(b) Seller and, to its Knowledge, each of its officers, members, managers, key employees and Persons performing management functions similar to the foregoing (collectively, “Seller’s Key Persons”) hold all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, certificates, approvals and consents, including, without limitation, all certificates of occupancy, all environmental, liquor, Gaming Approvals, health and safety licenses of all Governmental Authorities which are material to the conduct of the Business and the ownership, use, occupation and/or operation of the Gaming Assets and Casino (collectively, “Operating Permits”), each such Operating Permit is and will be in full force and effect on the Closing Date, Seller and each of Seller’s Key Persons are in compliance in all material respects with all such Operating Permits, and no event (including, without limitation, any material violation of any law, rule or regulation) has occurred which would be reasonably likely to lead to the revocation or termination of any such Operating Permit or the imposition of any restriction thereon.

(c) Seller and, to its Knowledge, each of Seller’s Key persons, have no reason to believe that Seller will not be able to maintain in effect all Gaming Approvals and other Operating Permits necessary for the lawful conduct of its business or operations as now conducted or as planned to be conducted at the Casino, including, but not limited to, the Lease Agreement for the continued operation of the Casino by Seller.

2.5 Financial Statements. The financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) included in Seller’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the “Report”) fairly present the financial condition and results of operations of Seller at the dates and for the periods indicated.

2.6 No Undisclosed Liabilities. As of the date hereof, except as reflected, reserved or disclosed in the Financial Statements, and except for liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in the Financial Statements (the “Balance Sheet Date”), Seller does not have any material liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) that would be required by GAAP to be recognized on a balance sheet of Seller dated as of the date hereof.

2.7 Absence of Certain Changes or Events. As of the date hereof, since the Balance Sheet Date, except as disclosed in the Reports or as a consequence of, or as contemplated by, this Agreement, Seller’s business has been conducted in the ordinary course of business and Seller has not experienced any events, developments or changes which, individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as contemplated by this Agreement or disclosed in the Reports, since the Balance Sheet Date, Seller has not:

(a) amended in any material respect, terminated, cancelled, compromised in any material respect or settled any material claim relating to Seller, other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice;

(c) made, revoked or changed any material Tax election or material method of Tax accounting or settled or compromised any material liability relating to Taxes of Seller;

(d) either (i) granted any increase, or announced any increase, in the wages, salaries, compensation, bonuses, incentives, pension or other benefits payable to any employee of Seller, including any increase or change pursuant to any Seller Plan, or (ii) established or increased or promised to increase any benefits under any Seller Plan; in any such case (x) except as increased, announced, changed, promised, granted or established, as the case may be, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (y) except as required by Law or (z) except ordinary course increases of Seller’s business pursuant to any collective bargaining agreement or other similar employee agreement;

4.15 Additional Deposits if Closing is Deferred.

If as of October 31, 2007, (i) the Closing has not occurred due to the fact that consummating the Closing would cause an event of default under the Indenture, and (ii) such default would not exist if this Agreement were restructured as provided in the Memberhip Interest Purchase Agreement, this Agreement shall

become null and void and of no further force or effect and the parties shall thereafter abide by all of the terms and conditions contained in the Memberhip Interest Purchase Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

OBLIGATIONS AFTER CLOSING

6.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants; Indemnification.

(a) Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, except that the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.9, 2.10 and 2.11, which shall survive the Closing until 60 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. All covenants and agreements which by their terms contemplate or involve actions to be taken or obligations in effect after the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.1, from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall indemnify Purchaser from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by Purchaser which may be imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or assessed against Purchaser, directly or indirectly, to the extent relating to or arising out of:

(i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Article II or in the Officer’s Certificate delivered by Seller at Closing pursuant to Section 5.2(c); or

(ii) any failure by Seller to perform or comply with its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement.

(c) Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.1, from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify Seller from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by Seller, directly or indirectly, to the extent relating to or arising out of:

(i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Purchaser contained in Article III or in the Officer’s Certificate delivered at Closing pursuant to Section 5.3(c); or

(ii) any failure by Purchaser to perform or comply with its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement.

(d) Timing of Delivery of Notice of Claim. No party shall be liable for any Losses pursuant to Section 6.1(b) unless the party seeking such indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) has (x) delivered the notice of Claim in respect of such Loss required by Section 6.1(h) below (y) such notice of Claim is received by from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) on or prior to expiration of the applicable survival period.

(e) Insurance Offset. Each Loss shall be reduced by (A) the amount of any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party, (B) any indemnification, contribution or other similar payment paid to the Indemnified Party by any third party with respect to such Loss and (C) any Tax refunds or credits of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates attributable to such Loss.

(f) No Duplication. Any liability for indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or more than one right to indemnification.

(g) Exclusive Remedy. From and after Closing, except for a party’s right to equitable relief for the breach of any covenant contained herein or a claim for fraud, indemnification under Sections 6.1(b)(i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties to this Agreement, as applicable, for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and Seller, on the one hand and Purchaser, on the other, as applicable, shall have no other liability to the other party resulting from any such breach.

(h) Notice of Claim. If the Indemnified Party shall become aware of any claim, proceeding or other matter (a “Claim”), which may give rise to a Loss that will be taken into account for purposes of calculating whether the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation arises pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c) above, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify whether the Claim arises as a result of a Claim by an unaffiliated third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the Claim does not so arise (a “Direct Claim”), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available) the factual basis for the Claim and the amount of the Claim, if known. If the Indemnified Party does not

promptly give notice of any Claim as specified above, such failure shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in connection with such Claim, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party’s rights are prejudiced by such failure.

(i) Direct Claims. With respect to any Direct Claim, following receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have ninety (90) days to make such investigation of the Claim as it considers necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Claim, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If both parties agree at or prior to the expiration of such 90-day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the validity and amount of such Claim, they shall agree to apply it to the applicable deductible, or if the applicable deductible has been satisfied, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay to the Indemnified Party the full agreed upon amount of the Claim, failing which the dispute shall be referred to binding arbitration in such manner as the parties may agree or shall be determined by a Las Vegas Court.

(j) Third Party Claims.

(i) With respect to any Third Party Claims the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its expense and at its election, to assume control of the negotiation, settlement and defense of the Claim through counsel of its choice. The election of the Indemnifying Party to assume such control shall be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim, failing which the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have elected not to assume such control. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume such control, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be informed and consulted with respect to the negotiation, settlement or defenses of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf, but the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party Consents to the retention of such counsel or unless the named parties to any action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and a representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them (such as the availability of different defenses). If the Indemnifying Party, having elected to assume such control, thereafter fails to defend the Third Party Claim within a reasonable period of time, subject to Section 6.1(j)(ii), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such control and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim. If any Third Party Claim is of a nature such that the Indemnified Party is required by applicable Law to make a payment to any third party with respect to the Third Party Claim before the completion of settlement negotiations or related legal proceedings, the Indemnified Party may make such payment and the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1, after demand by the Indemnified Party, reimburse the Indemnified Party for such payment. If the amount of any liability of the Indemnified Party under the Third Party Claim in respect of which such payment was made, as finally determined, is less than the amount which was paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall, promptly after receipt of the difference from the third party, pay the amount of such difference to the Indemnifying Party.

(ii) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the negotiation, settlement or defense of any Third Party Claim:

(1) the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the written Consent of the Indemnified Party, which Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement provides solely for monetary damages or other monetary payments;

(2) the Indemnified Party shall not, if it continues to seek indemnity from the Indemnifying Party with respect to the matter, settle any Third Party Claim without the written Consent of the Indemnifying Party, which Consent may be withheld in the Indemnifying Party’s sole discretion.

(iii) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate fully with each other with respect to Third Party Claims and, regardless of which party has control thereof as provided for herein, shall keep each other reasonably advised with respect thereto.

(iv) The Indemnified Party shall not take any action the purpose of which is to prejudice the defense of any claim subject to indemnification hereunder or to induce a third party to assert a claim subject to indemnification hereunder.

6.2 Offset of Certain Claims. If at the end of the Lease Term, any Claim shall be a Settled Claim, the amount thereof shall be deducted from the payment otherwise due from Purchaser to Seller as provided in Section 1.7. If, at the end of the Lease Term, any Claim shall be a Pending Claim, the amount thereof, shall be withheld from the payment otherwise due from Purchaser to Seller as provided in Section 1.7. Upon such Claim becoming a Settled Claim, the amount thereof shall be deducted from the payment otherwise due from Purchaser to Seller as provided in Section 1.7 and the balance, if any, of the amount so withheld shall be paid to Seller.
