2. Deferral and Subordination of Lakes Obligations.

2.1 Deferral and Accrual of Lakes Obligations. Each of the Lakes Parties agrees that any Lakes Obligations (i) not permitted to be paid pursuant to the FF&E Facility Agreement or (ii) the payment of which will result in or cause an Event of Default under the FF&E Facility Agreement shall be deferred and shall accrue and may be paid only at such time as such amounts would otherwise be permitted to be paid pursuant to the provisions of the FF&E Facility Agreement (and the payment of which shall not result or cause an Event of Default under the FF&E Facility Agreement), and none of the Lakes Parties of any portion of Lakes Obligations will ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive from the Borrower, by set-off or in any other manner, direct or indirect payment (whether in cash or property), any such amounts or any transfer or property in payment of or as security therefor (provided that any Lakes Party may ask or demand payments permitted to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.1, and provided further that each Lakes Party may make any demand, give any notice or take any other action permitted by and in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement, the Development Agreement or any other Lakes Transaction Document so long as such action is not prohibited by this Agreement and the FF&E Facility Agreement). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing in the Agreement shall limit, restrict or otherwise impair any right of any Lakes Party to terminate the Management Agreement, the Development Agreement or any other Lakes Transaction Document in accordance with the terms thereof.

2.2 [Intentionally Omitted].

2.3 Subordination to FF&E Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of the Management Agreement, Development Agreement, Lakes Notes or any other agreement and instrument, all Lakes Obligations shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Section 2, to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations. For avoidance of doubt, the FF&E Agent agrees that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, at any time prior to the Discharge of the FF&E Secured Obligations, the Borrower may make, and each Lakes Party may receive and retain, payments with respect to the Lakes Obligations, so long as such payments are permitted to be paid pursuant to, and will not result in or cause an Event of Default under, the FF&E Financing Agreements.

2.4 Default on FF&E Secured Obligations. In the event that any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to the FF&E Financing Agreements, or if any payment of Lakes Obligations would create an Event of Default under the FF&E Financing Agreements, unless and until the prior Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, the right of Great Lakes to receive any payments or other distributions with respect to Lakes Obligations as the case may be shall be deferred during the continuance of such Event of Default.

2.5 Deferral Not a Default. Great Lakes agrees that any deferral pursuant to this Section 2 of any Lakes Notes shall not constitute a default under the Management Agreement, Development Agreement, Lakes Notes, or any agreement and instruments referred to

-6-

therein so long as the FF&E Facility has not been accelerated. For avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not limit, restrict or otherwise impair any right of any Lakes Party to terminate or exercise any other right or remedy under the Management Agreement, the Development Agreement or any other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Development Agreement) in accordance with the terms thereof, other than as a result of non-payment under the Lakes Notes.

2.6 Continuing Subordination. The subordination effected by this Section 2 is a continuing subordination and may not be modified or terminated by any Lakes Party until the prior Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations.

2.7 Subordination of the Lakes Obligations upon Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Without limiting the application of Section 6, in the event of any distribution, division or application, partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the assets of the Borrower or the proceeds thereof to creditors of the Borrower or upon any Indebtedness of the Borrower, by reason of the liquidation, dissolution or other winding up, partial or complete, of the Borrower, or any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, then and in any such event:

2.7.1.1 The holders of FF&E Secured Obligations shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all such FF&E Secured Obligation before the Lakes Parties shall be entitled to receive any payment or other distributions on, or with respect to, the Lakes Obligations;

2.7.1.2 Any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, which but for these provisions would be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations shall instead be paid or delivered directly to the FF&E Agent for application on the FF&E Secured Obligations, whether then due or not due, until such FF&E Secured Obligations shall have first been Discharged;

2.7.1.3 Each of the Lakes Parties hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the FF&E Agent, and appoints the FF&E Agent as attorney-in-fact, to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor, and to file and vote claims (in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise) and take such other actions, in the FF&E Agent’s own name or otherwise, as the FF&E Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of these provisions. The Lakes Parties shall duly and promptly take such action as may be reasonably requested by the FF&E Agent to assist in the collection of the Lakes Obligations for the account of any holder of the FF&E Secured Obligations, and to file appropriate proofs of claim with respect to the Lakes Obligations and to vote the same, and to execute and deliver to the FF&E Agent on demand such powers of attorney, proofs of claim, assignments of claim or other instruments as may be reasonably requested by the FF&E Agent to enable the FF&E Agent or any other holder of FF&E Secured Obligations to enforce any and all claims upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations and to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations. In addition, no Lakes Party shall take any action

-7-

(whether oral, written or otherwise) in contravention of any action of the FF&E Agent duly taken and permitted hereunder. Such appointment as attorney-in-fact pursuant to this Section 2.7.1.3 is irrevocable and coupled with an interest until payment in full in cash and complete performance of all the FF&E Secured Obligations. The FF&E Agent may appoint a substitute attorney-in-fact. Each of the Lakes Parties ratifies all actions reasonably taken by the attorney-in-fact but, nevertheless, if the FF&E Agent requests, each of them will specifically ratify any action taken by the attorney-in-fact by executing and delivering to the attorney-in-fact or to any entity designated by the attorney-in-fact all documents necessary to effect such ratification;

2.7.1.4 Following any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings or Event of Default under the FF&E Facility Agreement, each of the Lakes Parties will forthwith deliver any direct or indirect payment thereafter made to it upon or with respect to the Lakes Obligations prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations to the FF&E Agent in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment by the Lakes Parties where necessary) for application on the FF&E Secured Obligations, whether then due or not due. Until so delivered, the payment or distribution shall be held in trust by the Lakes Parties as property of the holders of the FF&E Secured Obligations. In the event of the failure by the Lakes Parties to make any such endorsement or assignment, the FF&E Agent, or any of its officers or employees, are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same.

2.8 [Intentionally Omitted].

2.9 Judgment Liens. In the event any Lakes Party becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of any assets of the Borrower as a result of its enforcement of its rights as a creditor with respect to the Lakes Obligations such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the FF&E Secured Obligations).

2.10 When Proceeds Must be Paid Over. Any payment received by the Lakes Parties (including, without limitation, payments and prepayments made for application against the Lakes Obligations) prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations when such payment is not expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or the other FF&E Financing Agreements shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of FF&E Secured Obligations and shall be turned over to the FF&E Agent promptly upon the request of the FF&E Agent.

2.11 Subrogation. With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any Lakes Party pays over to the FF&E Agent or any of the FF&E Secured Parties under the terms of this Agreement, Great Lakes shall be subrogated to the rights of the FF&E Agent or such FF&E Secured Parties; provided, however, that, the Lakes Parties hereby agree not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations has occurred. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Lakes Parties that are paid over to the FF&E Agent or any FF&E Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the Lakes Obligations.

-8-

3. FF&E Collateral, Priority of Liens.

The Lakes Parties hereby confirm and agree that the FF&E Secured Obligations shall be secured by a first priority lien on and security interest in the FF&E Collateral notwithstanding (a) the availability of any other collateral, (b) the execution, delivery, recording, filing or perfection of any of the FF&E Security Documents, or the order of such execution, delivery, recording, filing or perfection or the priorities which would otherwise result therefrom, (c) the fact that any Lien or security interest created by the FF&E Security Documents, or any claim with respect thereto, is or may be subordinated, avoided or disallowed in whole or in part under any Bankruptcy Law, or (d) any other matter whatsoever. All provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to, all matters relating to the creation, validity, perfection, priority, subordination and release of the Liens and security interests intended to be created by any FF&E Security Document and all provisions regarding the allocation and priority of payments with respect to any FF&E Financing Agreement shall survive any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and be fully enforceable by and against each FF&E Secured Party during any such proceeding. In the event of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, each Lakes Party further confirms and agrees that the Obligations due and outstanding under and with respect to each FF&E Financing Agreement shall include all principal, additional advances permitted thereunder, interest, default interest, London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) breakage and swap breakage, post petition interest and all other amounts due thereunder, for periods before and for periods after the commencement of any such proceedings, even if the claim for such amounts is disallowed pursuant to applicable law, and all proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the FF&E Collateral shall be paid to the FF&E Secured Parties in the order and priority provided for in this Section 3 notwithstanding the disallowance of any such claim or the invalidity or subordination of any Lien on or security interest in the FF&E Collateral under applicable law.

4. Rights and Limitation of Actions With Respect to FF&E Collateral.

4.1 Rights and Limitations Applicable to Lakes Parties.

4.1.1 At any time prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, the Lakes Parties shall not, and shall not authorize or direct any other Person acting for them or to, exercise any right or remedy with respect to any FF&E Collateral (including any right of set-off) or take any action to enforce, collect or realize upon any FF&E Collateral, including, without limitation, any right, remedy or action to:

	(a)		take possession of or control over any FF&E Collateral;

	(b)		exercise any collection rights in respect of any FF&E Collateral;

-9-

	(f)		deliver any notice, claim or demand relating to the FF&E Collateral to any Person (including any securities intermediary, depositary bank or landlord) in the possession or control of any FF&E Collateral or acting as bailee, custodian or agent for any of the FF&E Secured Obligations in respect of any FF&E Collateral;

	(g)		otherwise enforce any remedy available upon default for the enforcement of any Lien upon any FF&E Collateral;

	(h)		deliver any notice or commence any proceeding for any of the foregoing purposes;

	(i)		seek relief in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding permitting it to do any of the foregoing; or

	(j)		retain any proceeds of accounts and other obligations receivable paid to it directly by any account debtor.

4.1.2 Nothing in this Agreement or any other FF&E Financing Agreement shall affect the relative rights of the Lakes Parties, collectively, vis a vis creditors of the Borrower other than the FF&E Secured Parties;

4.2 Rights and Limitations Applicable to the FF&E Secured Parties.

4.2.1 At all times until Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, the FF&E Agent at the direction of the FF&E Lenders shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce the terms of the FF&E Security Documents with respect to all FF&E Collateral and to exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to its discretion and exercise of its business judgment, including, without limitation, the exclusive right to take the actions enumerated in clauses (a) through (j) of Section 4.1.1. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the FF&E Facility, the FF&E Agent shall have the right to (i) enter the Project’s real property for the purpose of inspecting, maintaining or protecting the FF&E Collateral and (ii) remove the FF&E Collateral (including all records and other documentation relating thereto) and take such additional steps as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to prepare such FF&E Collateral for a foreclosure sale or other exercise of remedies with respect to such FF&E Collateral under the FF&E Facility Agreement.

In connection therewith, provided that each of the FF&E Secured Parties acts in a commercially reasonable manner and otherwise in accordance with applicable law, each Lakes Party waives any and all rights to affect the method or challenge the appropriateness of any action by the FF&E Secured Parties and hereby consents to each of the FF&E Secured Parties exercising or not exercising such rights and remedies.

4.3 Notification of Events of Default. Each party hereto hereby agrees, for the benefit of each other party, to use its best efforts to provide written notice to each other party within 10 Business Days after obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence or assertion of an

-10-

Event of Default under their respective Facilities. No party shall have any liability to the other for failing to provide any such notice.

4.4 Certain Waivers by Lakes Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Lakes Parties waive and agree not to assert or enforce, at any time prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations:

	(a)		any right of subrogation to the rights or interests of the FF&E Secured Parties or any claim or defense based upon impairment of any such right of subrogation;

	(b)		any right of marshalling accorded to a junior lienholder, as against a priority lienholder, under equitable principles; and

	(c)		any statutory right of appraisal or valuation accorded to a junior lienholder in a proceeding to foreclose a senior Lien;

in each case, that otherwise may be enforceable in respect of any Lien securing any of the Lakes Obligations as against the FF&E Secured Parties.

4.5 Agent for Perfection. Each of the Lakes Parties agrees to hold any FF&E Collateral in its respective possession, custody, or control (or in the possession, custody, or control of agents or bailees for either, as applicable) as agent for the FF&E Secured Parties solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted to each in such FF&E Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4.5. None of the parties hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to the other parties to assure that the FF&E Collateral is genuine or owned by the Borrower, or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person. The duties or responsibilities of each Lakes Party under this Section 4.5 are and shall be limited solely to holding or maintaining control of the FF&E Collateral as agent for the other for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by the FF&E Secured Parties. Persons acting pursuant to this Section 4.5 are not and shall not be deemed to be fiduciaries of any kind for any other Person.

-13-

6.1 Right to File Involuntary Bankruptcy. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Lakes Party shall be entitled, at any time and at its sole discretion, to initiate or join as a petitioning creditor in an involuntary Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Borrower; provided, however, that, until the prior Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, none of the Lakes Parties shall, without the prior written consent of the FF&E Agent, acting at the direction of the FF&E Lenders, initiate or join as a petitioning creditor in an involuntary Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Borrower.

6.2 Certain Agreements and Consents by Lakes Parties.

6.2.1 At no time prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations shall any Lakes Party:

	(a)		request judicial relief in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or in any other court, that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy otherwise available to the holders of FF&E Secured Obligations that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien securing the FF&E Secured Obligations or subordinate the Lien securing the FF&E Secured Obligations to the Liens securing the Lakes Obligations or grant the Liens securing the Lakes Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the FF&E Secured Obligations;

	(b)		oppose or otherwise contest any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement of Liens securing the FF&E Secured Obligations made by any holder of FF&E Secured Obligations in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;

	(c)		oppose or otherwise contest any exercise by any holder of FF&E Secured Obligations of the right to credit bid FF&E Secured Obligations at any sale in foreclosure of Lien securing the FF&E Secured Obligations; or

	(d)		oppose or otherwise contest any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any holder of FF&E Secured Obligations relating to the enforcement of any Lien securing the FF&E Secured Obligations.

6.2.2 If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding prior to the Discharge of all FF&E Secured Obligations, the FF&E Secured Parties:

	(a)		consent to any order for use of cash collateral for payment of (i) expenses reasonably necessary or appropriate for the conduct of the Project or for the preservation of the FF&E Collateral, or (ii) administrative expenses arising in connection with the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;

	(b)		consent to any order granting any priming Lien, replacement Lien, cash payment or other relief on account of FF&E Secured Obligations as adequate protection (or its equivalent) for the interests of the FF&E Secured Parties in property subject to the Liens securing the FF&E

-14-

Secured Obligations in connection with any order for use of cash collateral; or

(c)

consent to any order relating to any sale of the FF&E Collateral and providing, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that all such Liens shall attach to the proceeds of the sale (except that the FF&E Secured Parties need not admit, consent to or support any valuation of the FF&E Collateral alleged in support of the allowance of any secured claim based upon the Liens securing the Lakes Obligations),

then, the Lakes Parties will not oppose or otherwise contest the entry of such order.

6.2.3 The Lakes Parties will not assert or enforce, at any time prior to the Discharge of the FF&E Secured Obligations, any claim under §506(c) of the United States Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Liens securing the FF&E Secured Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any FF&E Collateral.

6.2.4 If, for purposes of valuation of the secured claims of the FF&E Secured Parties in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the FF&E Secured Parties determine, and the FF&E Agent or any other FF&E Secured Party notifies any Lakes Party, that the FF&E Collateral should be valued as of any particular time in the period from the date of commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to the date of confirmation of any plan of reorganization or other dispositive restructuring plan therein, then the Lakes Parties shall not oppose or otherwise contest that the date as of which such secured claims should be valued is the date chosen by the FF&E Secured Parties. The Lakes Parties shall not have the right to assert the lack of adequate protection of their Liens or the collateral securing the Lakes Obligations as a basis for opposing a motion or other relief sought in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and approved by the FF&E Secured Parties.
