AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.             The Accounts

Bank represents and warrants to Secured Party that:  Bank maintains the deposit account numbers set forth next to the respective deposit accounts listed on Schedule A (the “Accounts”) and, if it is a certificate of deposit or other time deposit, any renewal thereof shall be referred to as an “Account”) for Depositor at the Banking Office; and Bank does not know of any claim to or interest in the Accounts, except for claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement. Bank is a “bank,” and this Agreement constitutes an “authenticated record” within the meaning of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.  From and after the Operative Date, the Depositor shall deposit all Pledged Revenues (net of cage cash) in the Accounts.

2.             Control of Accounts by Secured Party; Depositor’s Rights in Accounts

a.  Bank will not agree with any third party that Bank will comply with instructions concerning the account originated by any party other than Depositor and Secured Party without the prior mutual written consent of Depositor and Secured Party.  So long as the Collateral Trustee is the Control Party, the Depositor hereby irrevocably instructs and authorizes the Bank within two Business Days after the Bank’s receipt of a written direction from the Collateral Trustee in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Activation Notice”) to transfer all amounts credited to the Accounts at the commencement of each Business Day thereafter to a bank and account as shall be designated by the Collateral Trustee and referred to herein as the “Waterfall Account”, by ACH transfer or by wire or electronic transfer, not later than the close of each such Business Day, all without any further consent from the Depositor or direction from the Collateral Trustee.  Any such Activation Notice shall remain in effect until the Bank has received a written direction from the Collateral Trustee in the form of (i) Exhibit B attached hereto (a “Notice of Revocation of Activation Notice”) notifying the Bank that the Collateral Trustee revokes the subject Activation Notice or (ii) Exhibit C attached hereto (a “Termination Notice”) notifying the Bank that all Parity Lien Debt has been indefeasibly paid in cash in full.  At any time following the receipt by the Bank of a Termination Notice, the Depositor hereby irrevocably instructs and authorizes the Bank within two Business Days after the Bank’s receipt of written direction from the Trustee in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Notice of Exclusive Control”) to transfer all amounts credited to the Accounts at the commencement of each Business Day thereafter to a bank and account as shall be designated by the Trustee, by ACH transfer or by wire or electronic transfer, not later than the close of each such Business Day, all without further consent from the Depositor or direction from the Collateral Trustee.

So long as an Activation Notice or Notice of Exclusive Control is not in effect, Bank shall comply with instructions originated by Depositor or its representatives concerning the Accounts.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Bank shall not comply with any instruction from (a) the Trustee until receipt from the Collateral Trustee of a Termination Notice or Notice of Revocation of Activation Notice, (b) the Depositor at any time during which an Activation Notice or Notice of Exclusive Control is in effect, or (c) the Tribe under any circumstances.

b.  Secured Party agrees that before it attempts to give Bank any Orders concerning the Accounts, Secured Party shall deliver to the Banking Office such documentation as Bank may from time to time reasonably request to evidence the authority of those partners, officers, employees or agents whom Secured Party may designate to give Orders.

c.  The Accounts shall be maintained at all times until the termination of this Agreement.

3.             Priority of Secured Party’s Security Interest; Rights Reserved by Bank

a.  Bank agrees that all of its present and future rights against the Accounts are subordinate to Secured Party’s security interest therein; provided, however, that Secured Party agrees that nothing herein subordinates or waives, and that Bank expressly reserves, all of its present and future rights (whether described as rights of setoff, banker’s lien, chargeback or otherwise, and whether available to Bank under the law or under any other agreement between Bank and Depositor concerning the Accounts,

2

(“Account Agreement”) or otherwise) with respect to: (i) items deposited to the Accounts and returned unpaid, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to the timeliness of such returns or the occurrence or timeliness of any drawee’s notice of non-payment of such items; (ii) ACH entries initiated from the Accounts for which Bank is obligated; (iii) ACH entries credited to the Accounts and later reversed, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to the timeliness of such entries’ reversal; (iv) claims of breach of transfer or presentment warranties under the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in the applicable state, made against Bank in connection with items deposited to the Accounts; (v) chargebacks to the Accounts of credit card transactions; (vi) erroneous entries to the Accounts; (vii) any item charged to the Accounts based on Bank’s obligation to indemnify a third party for a banking service to which the Accounts are tied; and (viii) Bank’s usual and customary charges for services rendered in connection with the Accounts and other banking services (“Account Fees”).  Subsections (i) through (viii) of this paragraph are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Returned Items.”

b.  Except as otherwise required by law, Bank will not agree with any third party that Bank will comply with Orders originated by such third party.

4.             Returned Item Amounts and Account Fees

Depositor and Control Party understand and agree that Bank will pay Returned Items by debiting the related Account.  Depositor agrees to pay the amount of any Returned Items immediately upon demand to the extent there are not sufficient funds in the Accounts to cover such amounts on the day of such debits.  Control Party shall pay to Bank, within twenty days after Bank’s demand on Control Party, the aggregate amount of Returned Items that have not been paid in full by Depositor within ten days after Bank’s demand on Depositor, but only in an amount not to exceed the amount of any funds received by Control Party from the Accounts pursuant to Orders originated by Control Party; provided, however, that if Bank is stayed from making such demand upon Depositor as a result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, then Bank shall be deemed to have made such demand upon Depositor at the commencement of such proceeding.  Bank agrees that any demand upon Control Party for payment of such amount shall be made within 30 days after termination of this Agreement.

5.             Statements; Notices of Adverse Claims

Bank will send copies of all statements for the Accounts to Depositor and, upon request, to Secured Party.  Depositor and Secured Party have 30 days after receipt of a statement for the Accounts to notify Bank of any error in such statement.  Bank’s liability for any such error is limited in accordance with Section 6 hereof.  Bank may disclose to Secured Party such other information concerning the Accounts as Secured Party may from time to time request; provided, however, that Bank shall have no duty or obligation to comply with any such request or to disclose to Secured Party any information which Bank does not ordinarily make available to its depositors.  Bank will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify Secured Party and Depositor if any other person claims that it has a property interest in the Accounts.

6.             Bank’s Responsibility

a. Bank undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and in any Account Agreement.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that Bank shall not be liable for, and Depositor and Secured Party hereby waive any claim, loss, liability or damages incurred against Bank related to this Agreement or with respect to any action taken by Bank or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees in accordance with this Agreement or arising , including, without limitation, any action so taken at the request of the Secured Party, except for the Bank’s or such person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  In no event shall the Bank be liable for losses or delays resulting from causes beyond the Bank’s reasonable control or for indirect, special or consequential damages whether any claim for such damages is based on tort or contract or whether Bank knew or should have known of the likelihood of such damages in any circumstances.

3

b.  Except for permitting a withdrawal in violation of Section 2, Bank will not be liable to Control Party for complying with Orders from Depositor that are received by Bank before Bank receives and has a reasonable opportunity to act on a contrary Order from Control Party.  In that regard, Secured Party recognizes that Depositor is not required by the Bank to maintain a positive balance in the Accounts; that Bank is under no duty to monitor the balance in the Accounts; and that any Account may close if the balance is $0.

c.  Bank will not be liable to Depositor for complying with Orders originated by Control Party, even if Depositor notifies Bank that Control Party is not legally entitled to issue Orders, unless Bank takes the action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process.

d.  This Agreement does not create any obligation of Bank except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement.  In particular, Bank need not investigate whether the Control Party is entitled under Control Party’s agreements with Depositor to give Orders.  Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes are given by the appropriate party.

e.  Bank will follow its usual procedures in the event the Depositor, Secured Party, the Accounts or any check should be or become the subject of any writ, levy, order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process (“Legal Process”), provided, however, no deposits from the Accounts may be turned over to Depositor or a third party without first having advised Secured Party of the Legal Process,  if permitted by law.  Bank will honor a Legal Process unless the Depositor and/or Secured Party obtain a release from the Legal Process or a court order binding on all parties prior to the due date of the Legal Process.  The Bank shall not be liable to either Depositor or Secured Party for honoring a Legal Process in good faith.

f.  Nothing in this Agreement shall impose on Bank a duty to restrict Depositor’s deposits such that Depositor is permitted to make deposits solely to the Accounts nor shall Bank have a duty to prevent Depositor from opening other deposit accounts at Bank and depositing checks or other items payable to Depositor into such accounts.  It is agreed between Depositor, Secured Party and Bank that the duties undertaken by and between Depositor and Secured Party under the lending arrangements between them, do not in any way impose a duty on Bank beyond the express duties agreed to by Bank in this Agreement.  Secured Party shall look solely to Depositor for any damages or losses to Secured Party caused by Depositor’s breach of any duties owed to Secured Party in this regard.

7.             Indemnity

a.  Depositor will indemnify Bank, its officers, directors, employees, and agents against claims, liabilities, and expenses arising out of this Agreement (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the reasonable estimate of the allocated costs and expenses of in-house legal counsel and staff), except to the extent the claims, liabilities, or expenses are caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

b.  Control Party will indemnify Bank, its officers, directors, employees, and agents against claims, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the reasonable estimate of the allocated costs and expenses of in-house legal counsel and staff), arising in any manner out of Bank’s acting on Control Party’s Orders concerning the Accounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and for the avoidance of doubt, the obligation of the Control Party to indemnify or reimburse the Bank under the terms of this Agreement, shall be (i) an obligation of the Control Party, in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee under the Indenture and, in the case of the Collateral Trustee, solely in its capacity as Collateral Trustee under the Collateral Trust Agreement;(ii) in the case of the Trustee, limited solely to funds available under the Indenture at any point in time and, in the case of the Collateral Trustee, limited solely to funds available under the New Indenture at any point in time; (iii) limited solely to the scope of the Control Party’s request

4

of the Bank; and (iv) not applicable in the event of negligent or intentional misconduct of the Bank. The obligation of the Trustee to indemnify, or to reimburse or pay any amounts, under the terms of this Agreement shall not be an obligation of U.S. Bank National Association in its individual or corporate capacity. The obligation of the Collateral Trustee to indemnify, or to reimburse or pay any amounts, under the terms of this Agreement shall not be an obligation of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas in its individual or corporate capacity. No such indemnification, reimbursement or other payment by the Control Party shall prejudice its indemnification or other rights against the Authority or the Tribe (as defined in the Indenture) as obligated issuers under the provisions of the Indenture and the New Indenture, as applicable.

8.             Termination; Survival

a.  Secured Party may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Banking Office and Depositor.  Bank may terminate this Agreement on 30 day’s notice to Secured Party and Depositor; provided however that this Agreement may be terminated immediately by notice from Bank to Secured Party and Depositor, should Secured Party fail to make any payment when due from Secured Party to Bank hereunder.

b.  The Control Party may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Bank after repayment in full in cash of the Indenture Debt and all Parity Lien Debt.

c.  Sections 4, “Returned Items Amounts and Account Fees;” 6, “Bank’s Responsibility;” and 7, “Indemnity,” will survive termination of this Agreement.

9.         Wire Transfers

If Control Party delivers to Bank Orders to do so, Bank will wire, on each business day, collected balances in the Accounts:

or to such other financial institution or account as Control Party may hereafter instruct Bank in a writing that includes all of the identifying information set forth above.

Control Party and Depositor acknowledge notice that under the State of New York’s Commercial Code if a beneficiary of a wire transfer is designated by both name and account number the payment may be made according to the account number even if the name and account number are inconsistent and identify different parties.

Reliance on Identifying Numbers.  If Control Party indicates a name and an identifying number for the bank of the person or entity to receive funds transfers out of the Account, Control Party and Depositor understand and agree that Bank may rely on the number Control Party indicates even if that number identifies a bank different from the bank Control Party named.  If Control Party indicates a name and an account number for the person or entity to receive funds transfers out of the Account, Control Party and Depositor understand and agree that Bank may rely on the account number Control Party indicates even if that account number is not the account number for the person or entity who is to receive the transfers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and solely as between Depositor and Control Party, any such identification by Control Party shall not impact the application of such funds as required by the terms of the security agreement and other loan documents evidencing the Depositor’s debt to Control Party.

5

Reporting Errors in Transfers.  If Depositor learns of any error in a funds transfer or any unauthorized funds transfer, then Depositor must notify Bank as soon as possible by telephone and provide written confirmation to Bank of such telephone notice within two Business Days at the address given for Bank on the signature page of this Agreement.  In no case may such notice to Bank by Depositor be made more than fifteen (15) calendar days after Depositor learns of the erroneous or unauthorized transfer.  If a funds transfer is made in error and Bank suffers a loss because Depositor breached its agreement to notify Bank of such error within the time limits specified in this Section, then Depositor shall reimburse Bank for the loss promptly upon demand by Bank.

10.           Governing Law, Entire Agreement, Amendments, Severability, Other Agreements, Successors and Assigns, Notices, Counterparts
