In the event that the Disbursement Agent revises the Advance Request and Notice of Advance Request so as to increase the amounts to be advanced under the Bank Credit Facility or the FF&E Facility, the amounts of such increase shall constitute the same type of Loans as requested in such Advance Request (unless otherwise prohibited under the Bank Credit Agreement or the FF&E Facility Agreement, as applicable). In the event that the Disbursement Agent revises the Advance Request and Notice of Advance Request so as

to decrease the amounts to be advanced under the Bank Credit Facility or the FF&E Facility, the amounts of such decrease shall (unless otherwise requested by the Company and permitted under the Bank Credit Agreement or the FF&E Facility Agreement, as applicable) first reduce the amount of Base Rate Loans requested under such Facility and then reduce the amount of Eurodollar Loans requested under such Facility.

Upon such written notice from the Disbursement Agent, and subject to the provisions of SectionΒ 3.5, (i)Β neither the Bank Lenders nor the FF&E Lenders shall have any obligation to advance their respective Facilities' portion of the requested Advance, if any, (ii)Β the Disbursement Agent shall not withdraw any funds from the Second Mortgage Notes Proceeds Account for the purpose of transferring such funds to the Collection Account and/or the Disbursement Account or for the purpose of paying any Debt Service on the Bank Credit Facility or the FF&E Facility (provided that the Disbursement Agent shall withdraw funds from the Second Mortgage Notes Proceeds Account for the purpose of paying scheduled Debt Service on the Second Mortgage Notes), (iii)Β subject to SectionΒ 3.2 the Disbursement Agent shall not withdraw any funds from the Company's Funds Account to satisfy such requested Advance, (iv)Β the Disbursement Agent shall not withdraw, transfer or release any funds on deposit in the Interest Payment Account, (v)Β the Disbursement Agent shall not withdraw, transfer or release to the Company any funds then on deposit in the Disbursement Account (other than in respect of wires previously issued under SectionΒ 2.6.1(c)) or funds on deposit in the Collection Account and (vi)Β any Advance Confirmation Notice issued prior to the issuance of a Stop Funding Notice (if the Advance to which such Advance Confirmation Notice relates has not been made) shall become null and void and of no force or effect; provided that such nullification of any such Advance Confirmation Notice shall not affect the obligations of the Company for break funding costs under the Bank Credit Facility and the FF&E Facility.

Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (d)Β Β In the event that a Funding Agent entitled to waive conditions precedent to funding pursuant to SectionΒ 3.5 informs the Disbursement Agent in writing that it has waived the event or events giving rise to the Stop Funding Notice, the Disbursement Agent shall deliver an Advance Confirmation Notice (modified, if required, to apply only to amounts to be advanced under such Funding Agent's Facility unless all Funding Agents entitled to waive conditions with respect to such Advance Request have waived the conditions, in which case the Disbursement Agent shall deliver an Advance Confirmation Notice with respect to all Advances requested by the Company) to the Company and each of the Funding Agents.

Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (ii)Β Β Upon confirming that all funds required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to clauseΒ (i) above have been deposited and, if applicable, upon receipt of the Bank Agent's confirmation that the "Issuing Lenders" (as defined in the Bank Credit Agreement) under the Bank Revolving Facility are committed to issue each requested Letter of Credit, the Disbursement Agent shall withdraw from the Company's Funds Account, the Second Mortgage Notes Proceeds Account, the Bank Proceeds Account and the FF&E Proceeds Account the portion of the Advance to be funded from each such account as determined pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.9(d) and set forth in the related Advance Confirmation Notice and deposit such funds in the Collection Account. Once all such funds have been deposited in the Collection Account, the Disbursement Agent shall (subject to SectionΒ 2.4.3(b)) promptly, considering the requirements of this Agreement, withdraw such funds and deposit them in the Disbursement Account and shall notify the Bank Agent that such transfer to the Disbursement Account has been made. Upon receipt of such notice, if applicable, the Bank Agent shall instruct the "Issuing Lenders" (as defined in the Bank Credit Agreement) under the Bank Revolving Facility to issue the requested Letters of Credit.

However, the withholding of such Advances by the Disbursement Agent shall not release the Lender who
14
failed to make the Advance under its Facility (including, if applicable, any Issuing Lender under the Bank Revolving Facility who failed to issue a Letter of Credit) from liability to the other Lenders and the Company. The Disbursement Agent shall have no liability to the Company arising from any Stop Funding Notice issued pursuant to SectionΒ 2.4.3(b) at the request of any Funding Agent (a "Stop Funding Request"), whether or not such Funding Agent was entitled to make any such Stop Funding Request. None of the Funding Agents shall have any liability to the Company, the Disbursement Agent, any other Funding Agent or any Lender arising from any Stop Funding Notice issued by the Disbursement Agent in response to a Stop Funding Request by such Funding Agent; provided, however, that nothing herein shall release from liability the Funding Agent who issued the Stop Funding Request if such issuance resulted from, or constituted an act of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Funding Agent, as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Securities Intermediary may at any time and from time to time appoint, and may at any time remove, any bank, trust company, clearing corporation, or Broker-Dealer as its agent to carry out such of the provisions of this Agreement. The appointment or use of any intermediary, or the appointment of any such agent, shall not relieve Securities Intermediary of any responsibility or liability under this Agreement.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (f)Β Β Β Β Corporate Actions.Β Β Β Β Except as otherwise set forth herein, the parties agree that neither Secured Party nor Securities Intermediary shall have any responsibility for ascertaining or acting upon

It is understood and agreed by Pledgor and Secured Party that, although Securities Intermediary will use reasonable efforts to effect the transactions set forth in the preceding sentence, Securities Intermediary shall incur no liability for its failure to effect the same unless its failure is the result of wilful misconduct.

Except for claims for deductions permitted in the preceding sentence, Securities Intermediary agrees that any security interest it may have in the Collateral Accounts or any security entitlement carried therein shall be subordinate and junior to the interest of Secured Party.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (k)Β Β Β Β Only Agreement.Β Β Β Β This Agreement shall govern the actions, rights and obligations of Securities Intermediary, and shall determine the governing law, with respect to the Collateral Accounts and the Collateral notwithstanding any term or condition in any agreement other than this Agreement as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (l)Β Β Β Β Care of Financial Assets.Β Β Β Β Securities Intermediary shall maintain possession or control of all Financial Assets credited to the Collateral Accounts by segregating such Financial Assets from its proprietary assets and keeping them free of any lien, charge or claim of any third party granted or created by Securities Intermediary.

15
change in either such rating of no more than one category or grade of such minimum rating, as the case may be.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β (d)Β Β Β Β Process of Succession.Β Β Β Β Upon the appointment of a successor Securities Intermediary and its acceptance of such appointment, the resigning or removed Securities Intermediary shall transfer all items of Collateral held by it to such successor (which items of Collateral shall be transferred to appropriate new Collateral Accounts established and maintained by such successor). Following such appointment all references herein to Securities Intermediary shall be deemed a reference to such successor; provided that the provisions of SectionΒ 16(a) hereof shall continue to inure to the benefit of the resigning or removed Securities Intermediary with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Securities Intermediary hereunder.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 18.Β Β Β Β Continuing Security Interest; Termination of Obligations of Securities Intermediary.Β Β Β Β This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a)Β remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full of the Secured Obligations, (b)Β be binding upon Pledgor, its successors and assigns, and (c)Β inure, together with the rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, to the benefit of Secured Party and the Second Mortgage Noteholders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the indefeasible payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Pledgor. Upon any such termination Secured Party shall, at Pledgor's expense, execute and deliver to Pledgor such documents as Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination and Pledgor shall be entitled to the return, upon its request and at its expense, against receipt and without recourse to Secured Party, of such of the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof. Securities Intermediary shall not be released from its obligations hereunder, and shall continue to maintain any Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, until notified in writing by Secured Party that this Agreement has terminated and so long as Secured Party has not withdrawn such notification. Secured Party may instruct the Securities Intermediary to close the Second Mortgage Notes Proceeds Account after the final disbursement therefrom pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement.

Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Indenture Trustee under subsection [7.08] of the Second Mortgage Notes Indenture by a successor Indenture Trustee, that successor Indenture Trustee shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Secured Party under this Agreement, and the retiring or removed Secured Party under this Agreement shall promptly (i)Β transfer to such successor Secured Party all items of Collateral held by Secured Party (which as appropriate shall be credited to, and held for the credit of, any new Collateral Accounts established and maintained by such
16
successor Secured Party), together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Secured Party under this Agreement, and (ii)Β execute and deliver to such successor Secured Party such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Secured Party of the security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Secured Party shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 20.Β Β Β Β Amendments, Etc.Β Β Β Β
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or consent to any departure by any party herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the other parties, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 21.Β Β Β Β Notices.Β Β Β Β Any communications between the parties hereto or notices provided herein to be given may be given to the address of the party as set forth under such party's name on the signature pages hereof. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be considered as properly given (a)Β if delivered in person, (b)Β if sent by a reputable overnight delivery service, (c)Β in the event overnight delivery services are not readily available, if mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified with return receipt requested or (d)Β if sent by prepaid telex, or by telecopy with correct answer back received. Notice so given shall be effective upon receipt by the addressee, except that communication or notice so transmitted by telecopy or other direct written electronic means shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the day (if a Banking Day and, if not, on the next following Banking Day) on which it is validly transmitted if transmitted before 4Β p.m., recipient's time, and if transmitted after that time, on the next following Banking Day; provided, however, that if any notice is tendered to an addressee and the delivery thereof is refused by such addressee, such notice shall be effective upon such tender. Any party shall have the right to change its address for notice hereunder to any other location by giving of no less than twenty (20)Β days' notice to the other parties in the manner set forth hereinabove.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 22.Β Β Β Β Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver, Remedies Cumulative.Β Β Β Β No failure or delay on the part of Secured Party in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 23.Β Β Β Β Severability.Β Β Β Β In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 24.Β Β Β Β Headings.Β Β Β Β Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 25.Β Β Β Β Governing Law.Β Β Β Β THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. Securities Intermediary's jurisdiction shall be New York.

Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 26.Β Β Β Β Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process.Β Β Β Β ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST PLEDGOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT PLEDGOR ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. Pledgor hereby agrees that service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to Pledgor at its address provided in SectionΒ 21, such service being hereby acknowledged by Pledgor to be sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against Pledgor in any such court and to be otherwise effective and binding service in every respect. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Secured Party to bring proceedings against Pledgor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 27.Β Β Β Β Waiver of Jury Trial.Β Β Β Β PLEDGOR, SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY AND SECURED PARTY HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of this transaction, including contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law and statutory claims. Pledgor and Secured Party each acknowledge that this waiver is a material inducement for Pledgor and Secured Party to enter into a business relationship, that Pledgor and Secured Party have already relied on this waiver in entering into this Agreement and that each will continue to rely on this waiver in their related future dealings. Pledgor and Secured Party further warrant and represent that each has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with legal counsel. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 28.Β Β Β Β Counterparts.Β Β Β Β This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 29.Β Β Β Β Secured Party's Representative.Β Β Β Β The Secured Party hereby authorizes the entity from time to time acting as the Disbursement Agent under the Disbursement Agreement to, from time to time, act on its behalf hereunder. Until the Indenture Trustee notifies Securities Intermediary and Pledgor to the contrary, any such Disbursement Agent shall be a "representative" (as defined in SectionΒ 1-201(35) of the Code) of the Secured Party and, as such, any Entitlement Orders or other instructions or actions issued or taken by such Disbursement Agent hereunder shall be as effective as if issued or taken directly by the Secured Party.
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SECTION 30.Β Β Β Β Termination of Bank Company Collateral Account Agreement.Β Β Β Β From and after receipt of notice by the Securities Intermediary and the Secured Party from the Bank Agent to the effect that the Bank Company Collateral Account Agreement has been terminated, all references herein to the Bank Company Collateral Account Agreement, the Bank Agent and the Bank Lenders shall be void and of no further force or effect.
