4. Public Action Sale of Canyons Quartershare Interests; March, 2003 Waiver

on Schedule C attached hereto ("Canyons Auction Sale"), provided that, except
for a limited number of sales of Canyons Quartershare Interests on an absolute
basis as set forth on said Schedule C, all other sales of Canyons Quartershare
Interests and/or Canyons Residential Units at the Canyons Auction Sale shall be
on a "with reserve" basis and will be sold at a price or prices sufficient to
achieve the "Release Price" in respect thereof set forth below. The Canyons
Quartershare Interests and/or Canyons Residential Units to be so auctioned at
the Canyons Auction Sale on an absolute basis are referred to herein as "Canyons
Absolute Auctioned Quartershare Interests/Units" and the Canyons Quartershare
Interests or Canyons Residential Units to be so auctioned at the Canyons Auction

proceeds received in respect thereof (inclusive of any buyer's premium paid in
respect thereof) less (a) the auctioneer's commission in respect of such sale,
(b) any auctioneer expenses to be reimbursed from such gross proceeds by GSRP to
the auctioneer that have been allocated to such sale (the amounts of such
expenses and the methodology of their allocation being reasonably acceptable to

the Administrative Agent) and (c) the March, 2003 Waiver Fee. With respect to
any sales of Canyons With Reserve Auctioned Quartershare Interests/Units, the
Release Price therefor shall be the greater of (i) 70% of the Net Auction Sales
Proceeds in respect thereof and (ii) a "minimum release price" as set forth on
Schedule D attached hereto, which "minimum release price" when aggregated with
all other Release Prices received in respect of all other sales of Canyons
Quartershare Interests and Canyons Residential Units at the Canyons Auction Sale
shall not be less than $7,000,000; it being the intention of GSRP, the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent that GSRP will pay to the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lenders an aggregate amount of Release Prices from sales of
Canyons Quartershare Interests and Canyons Residential Units at the Canyons
Auction Sale of not less than $7,000,000. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Net
Auction Sales Proceeds shall be treated as Projects' Cash Proceeds under the
Existing LSA.
GSRP agrees to pay the March, 2003 Waiver Fee to the Administrative Agent
on behalf of the Lenders out of the gross proceeds of the Canyons Quartershare
Interests sold at the Canyons Auction Sale after deducting from such gross
proceeds the auctioneer's commission in respect thereof and any auctioneer
expenses to be reimbursed to the auctioneer from such gross proceeds by GSRP
(the amounts of such expenses being reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent) contemporaneously with its receipt of such proceeds, provided that, if
the Canyons Auction Sale shall not be held, the March, 2003 Waiver Fee shall be
paid by GSRP to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on February
28, 2004 out of then available Excess Projects' Cash Proceeds and if such Excess
Projects' Cash Proceeds are insufficient to pay such Fee, then the remainder
thereof shall be paid from the next available amount or amounts of such Excess
Projects' Cash Proceeds. "March, 2003 Waiver Fee" means the aggregate fees of
$175,000 payable to the Lenders pursuant to that certain waiver letter dated as
of March 31, 2003 in respect of GSRP's failure to comply with the requirements
of Section 2.5(c)(iii) of the Existing LSA.

Auction Sale or prior to or thereafter unless the Administrative Agent shall

7. Miscellaneous; Events of Defaults. The covenants and undertakings of
GSRP set forth in this Seventh Amendment Agreement shall be incorporated into
and made a part of the Existing LSA. All of the other Security Documents are
hereby automatically amended and modified to give effect to this Seventh
Amendment Agreement. Each of the holders of Steamboat Construction Project
Advance Notes shall attach a copy of this Seventh Amendment Agreement to each of
said Notes.
8. SOI. This Section 8 of the Sixth Amendment Agreement is amended and
replaced by the following:
The Lenders agree that GSRP, in accordance with the SOI, shall pay to
the Subordinated Lender, in cash, interest accruing from time to time on
the outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Loan Tranche at a
fixed rate per annum of 10% (it being acknowledged that interest accrues
under the SOI at a per annum rate of 20% and that the remaining unpaid
portion of said rate of interest would not be paid until all Canyons
Obligations, all Steamboat Obligations and all other Obligations (other
than the Percentage Sales Fee and the Subordinated Loan Tranche
Obligations) shall have been fully and finally paid). Such "cash interest"
shall be payable, and shall be paid, by GSRP irrespective of whether a
Default or Event of Default shall exist and shall rank pari passu with the
obligation of GSRP to pay interest to the Lenders in respect of the
Steamboat Obligations. The Lenders acknowledge that the Subordinated Lender
shall be entitled to receive such "cash interest payment" at the same time
as the Lenders for the Steamboat Project receive interest payments from the
Obligation-Servicing Projects' Cash Proceeds as provided for herein or
otherwise from other Projects' Cash Proceeds payable to such Lenders for
the Steamboat Project and the Canyons Project, and, if such
Obligation-Servicing Projects' Cash Proceeds or other Projects' Cash
Proceeds paid or payable to the Lenders for the Steamboat Project and
Canyons Project are insufficient to pay in full all of such "cash interest"
and the other interest payable to the Lenders for the Steamboat Project,
then such Obligation-Servicing Projects' Cash Proceeds or other Projects'
Cash Proceeds shall be shared ratably among the Lenders for the Steamboat
Project and the Subordinated Lender based on the amount of accrued and
unpaid interest owing to them. Unless and until all Obligations (other than
the Subordinated Loan Tranche Obligations and the Percentage Sales Fee)
shall have been paid in full, no other payments shall be made by GSRP to
the Subordinated Lender under the SOI. The Lenders acknowledge that the
Subordinated Lender's security interest and Lien under, and as defined in,
6
the SOI will continue to exist in and to the Excess Projects' Cash Proceeds
held as Collateral hereunder (subject to being used and released as
provided in Section 6 hereof), in and to the Obligation-Servicing Projects'
Cash Proceeds (together with payments under Section 2.5(c)(ii), Section 3.5
and Section 3.6 of the Existing LSA, as amended hereby)(subject to being
used and released as provided for in Section 5 hereof) and in and to all
other Projects' Cash Proceeds, provided that such security interest and
Lien in and to such Collateral is and shall be and remain junior and
subordinate in priority to the security interests and Liens therein under
the Existing LSA, as amended hereby, and other Security Documents.
The Lenders acknowledge that GSRP and the Subordinated Lender are agreeing to
extend the period during which Subordinated Loan Tranche Advances may be
obtained by GSRP under the SOI until the earlier of the date of the Canyons
Auction Sale or March 31, 2004 and are agreeing that up to an aggregate of
$635,251 of additional Subordinated Loan Tranche Advances will be available
under the SOI for working capital purposes subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth therein with respect thereto and subject to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Subordinated Loan Tranche Advances
outstanding at any one time never exceeding $10,600,000. The Lenders acknowledge
that the Subordinated Lender may elect not to make Subordinated Loan Tranche
Advances to GSRP under the SOI if there is no resolution of the Fleet/ASCRP Loan
Defaults/Acceleration under the Fleet/ASCRP Loan Documents that is reasonably
satisfactory to the Subordinated Lender. The Lenders acknowledge the benefits
GSRP is deriving from the SOI and the Subordinated Loan Tranche Advances
thereunder and consent to the same. The Lenders agree and consent to the
amending of the SOI as provided for in that certain "Third Amendment Agreement"
of even date herewith, copies of which have been delivered to each of the
Lenders by GSRP.
9. Representations and Warranties. GSRP hereby represents and warrants as
of the date hereof as follows, which representations and warranties are hereby
incorporated into and made part of the Amended LSA:
9.1 Except as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 1 attached hereto, each

warrants were true and correct as of the date of such schedules) is true
and correct as of the date hereof.
9.2 Except with respect to the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the
Existing LSA), all Liens granted to the Administrative Agent under the
Existing LSA and the other Security Documents are duly granted, valid,
perfected and prior in right to all other Liens that now or hereafter may
be granted to or held by any other Person.
9.3 The execution and delivery of this Seventh Amendment Agreement,
the Modification Documents (as such term is hereinafter defined) and the
other documents and instruments contemplated herein, and compliance by GSRP
with all of the provisions of this Seventh Amendment Agreement, the
Existing LSA, as amended hereby, and each of the other documents set forth
above are:
(i) within the corporate powers of GSRP; and
(ii) valid and legal acts and will not conflict with, or result
in any breach in any of the provisions of, or constitute a default
under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any Property of GSRP
7
under the provisions of, any agreement, charter instrument, bylaw or
other instrument to which GSRP is a party or by which its Property may
be bound.
9.4 Neither the nature of GSRP, nor of any of its businesses or
Properties, nor any relationship between GSRP and any other Person, nor any
circumstance in connection with the execution or delivery of this Seventh
Amendment Agreement and the other documents contemplated in connection
herewith, nor the operation of any Project and the sale, or offering for
sale, of any Quartershare Interest of any of the Projects by GSRP, is such
as to require a consent, approval or authorization of, or filing,
registration or qualification with, any governmental authority on the part
of GSRP, as a condition of the execution, delivery or performance of this
Seventh Amendment Agreement and the other documents contemplated in
connection herewith.
9.5 GSRP will not be, on or after the date hereof, a party to any
contract or agreement which restricts its right or ability to incur
indebtedness under, or prohibits the execution of, or compliance with, this
Seventh Amendment Agreement by GSRP. GSRP has not agreed or consented to
cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or
otherwise) any of its Property constituting the Collateral, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien other than Permitted
Exceptions and all Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in respect of
such Collateral remain in full force and effect.
9.6 GSRP is not entering into this Seventh Amendment Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, and does not intend to incur any
obligations hereunder or otherwise make any transfers in connection
herewith, with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present
or future creditors. After giving effect to the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Seventh Amendment Agreement, the Third
Amendment Agreement and the full availability of the advances contemplated
thereunder, (a) the assets of GSRP at a fair valuation thereof on a going
concern basis will not be less than its debts, (b) GSRP is not currently
engaged in or about to engage in a business or transaction for which its
remaining assets are unreasonably small in relation to such business or
transaction, and (c) GSRP will be able to pay its respective debts as they
become due. "Debt" for purposes of this Section 9.6 means any liability on
a claim, and "claim" means (i) any right to payment, whether or not such
right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent,
matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or
unsecured, or (ii) any right to an equitable remedy for breach of
performance if such breach gives rise to a right to payment, whether or not
such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, liquidated,
unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed,
legal, equitable, secured or unsecured.
9.7 After giving effect to this Seventh Amendment Agreement, no
Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, nor does any
event or condition exist that would constitute a Default or an Event of
Default. No material adverse change has occurred in or in respect of the
Collateral or any one or more of the Projects that has not been disclosed
to the Administrative Agent and Lenders in writing. The Obligations
continue to be Senior Debt under, and as defined in, the ASC Indenture and
no default or event of default exists under such Indenture and, no defaults
or events of default exist under any other agreement for indebtedness for
borrowed money, any financing lease or any guaranty of any of the foregoing
to which GSRP is a party. GSRP has not issued and is not otherwise
obligated in respect of any obligation of the Parent, American Skiing
Company, or any subsidiary of American Skiing Company for borrowed-money
indebtedness, any financing lease, any guaranty or any other obligation,
8
other than its guaranty of the Indenture, which by its own terms is junior
and subordinated to the Obligations.

the Steamboat Residential Units in the penthouse at the Steamboat Project
