Estimated Working Capital Statement for the Company and the Convenience Store (the “Estimated
Working Capital Statement”). The Estimated Working Capital Statement shall be prepared by
Seller using the same types of management judgments, estimates, forecasts, policies, opinions and
allocations (including reserve calculations) that have historically been used in the preparation of
the Company’s and Convenience Store’s financial statements. The amount of Working Capital of the
Company and the Convenience Store set forth in its Estimated Working Capital Statement shall
hereinafter be referred to as the “Estimated Working Capital.” Purchaser (and its
independent accountants) shall be afforded the opportunity to review the Estimated Working Capital
Statement.
(b) The “Closing Date Purchase Price” shall be the amount of Three Hundred
Ninety-Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($398,500,000) plus the amount of Estimated
Working Capital (if greater than zero), or minus the amount of the Estimated Working Capital (if
less than zero).
Section 3.5 Adjustment Procedures to the Closing Date Purchase
Price.
(a) As promptly as practicable, but no later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing (or,
if the Closing occurs within the last month of a quarter, not later than twenty-five (25) days
after the Closing), Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement setting forth the
Working Capital of the Company and the Convenience Store as of the Closing (the “Working
Capital Statement”). The Working Capital Statement shall be prepared by Purchaser using the
same types of management judgments, estimates, forecasts, policies, opinions and allocations,
including reserve calculations, that have historically been used in the preparation of the
Company’s and the Convenience Store’s financial statements. Following the Closing, Purchaser shall
give to Seller and any independent accountants of Seller access at all reasonable times to the
properties, books, records and personnel of the Company and the Convenience Store relating to
periods prior to the Closing for purposes of reviewing the Working Capital Statement. Seller shall
have thirty (30) days following receipt of the Working Capital Statement in which to notify
Purchaser in writing of any dispute of any item contained in the Working Capital Statement, which
notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute and the Working Capital
figure proposed by Seller (the “Dispute Notice”). If Seller fails to notify Purchaser in
writing of any dispute within such thirty-day period, the Working Capital Statement shall be
22
deemed to be a “Final Statement.” In the event that Seller shall so notify Purchaser
of any dispute on or prior to such thirtieth day, any amounts contained in the Working Capital
Statement that are not disputed by Seller in the Dispute Notice shall be deemed to have been
finally determined for purposes of calculating the Actual Working Capital. For a period of fifteen
(15) days following the delivery of the Dispute Notice to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall
attempt to resolve in good faith the amounts disputed in the Dispute Notice. During such
fifteen-day period, Purchaser shall be permitted to review the working papers of Seller and
Seller’s independent accountants relating to the Estimated Working Capital Statement and the
Dispute Notice, and Seller shall be permitted to review the working papers of Purchaser and
Purchaser’s independent accountants relating to the Working Capital Statement. Amounts resolved by
such attempts within such fifteen (15) day period shall be deemed to have been finally determined
for purposes of calculating the Actual Working Capital.
(b) If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve any such dispute prior to the end of such
fifteen (15) day period, the accounting firm of Ernst & Young, or if Ernst & Young is not available
for this engagement, another accounting firm mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (which in
no event shall be PriceWaterhouseCoopers or Deloitte & Touche) (the “Independent Accounting
Firm”) shall be engaged by Purchaser and Seller as soon as is reasonably practicable to resolve
such dispute and such determination shall be final and binding on the parties to this Agreement.
Purchaser and Seller shall, as soon as is reasonably practicable after the engagement of the
Independent Accounting Firm, submit their respective determinations and calculations and the items
remaining in dispute for resolution to the Independent Accounting Firm. The Independent Accounting
Firm may not make any determination with respect to any matter not set forth in the Dispute Notice
and shall make its determination solely regarding the remaining disputed items (based solely on the
principles of calculation specified in this Agreement with regard to such disputed items). The
Independent Accounting Firm’s determination shall not be more than the amount of the Working
Capital set forth in the Dispute Notice or less than the amount of the Working Capital of the
Company and the Convenience Store as of the Closing Date set forth in the Working Capital
Statement. Each of Purchaser and Seller and their respective independent accountants shall give
the Independent Accounting Firm access at all reasonable times to the properties, books, records
and personnel of the Company and the Convenience Store relating to periods prior to the Closing for
purposes of reviewing the Estimated Working Capital Statement, the Dispute Notice and the Working
Capital Statement and calculating the Actual Working Capital. The Independent Accounting Firm
shall be instructed to use every reasonable effort to perform its services within thirty days of
submission of the Estimated Working Capital Statement, the Dispute Notice and the Working Capital
Statement to it and, in any case, as promptly as practicable after such submission. The Working
Capital Statement, as modified by resolution of any disputes by Purchaser and Seller or by the
Independent Accounting Firm, shall be deemed to be a “Final Statement.”
(c) Purchaser and Seller shall pay all expenses relating to the engagement of the Independent
Accounting Firm in proportion to the percentage of the dollar value of the disputed items prevailed
upon by each Person. Purchaser and Seller shall each pay all advisors’ fees, charges and expenses
incurred by such Person in connection with the dispute.
23
Section 3.6 Calculation and Payment of Final Purchase Price.
The Closing Date Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows: (i) if the Actual Working
Capital is greater than the Estimated Working Capital, then the Closing Date Purchase Price shall
be increased by the amount of such excess; or (ii) if the Actual Working Capital is less than the
Estimated Working Capital, then the Closing Date Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of
such deficiency (in each such event, the amount of increase or decrease, the “Price
Adjustment,” and the amount so determined, the “Final Purchase Price”).
To the extent the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Closing Date Purchase Price,
Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days of the determination of a Final Statement, deliver
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Seller in writing for
the Closing Date Purchase Price, an amount equal to the Price Adjustment. To the extent the Final
Purchase Price is less than the Closing Date Purchase Price, Seller shall, within five (5) Business
Days of the determination of a Final Statement, deliver by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account specified by Purchaser in writing (no later than two (2) Business Days prior to
the expiration of such five (5) Business Day period), an amount equal to the Price Adjustment, in
either case without interest.
Section 3.7 Additional Payments in Event of Closing Date after Target
Date.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Parties have agreed upon the Purchase Price in part
based upon the representations by Purchaser that it will be able to receive all necessary Gaming
Licenses expeditiously, and that the Closing will occur on or prior to March 31, 2007 (the
“Target Date”). In the event that the Closing occurs on a date after the Target Date, then
Purchaser shall pay to Seller, at Closing, as additional consideration, interest on the Purchase
Price, calculated from the Target Date through the Closing Date utilizing a rate of interest equal
to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) per annum, calculated daily and compounded monthly.

enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent
conveyance or similar Laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally and
(ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding
at law or in equity). PRMA has performed all material obligations required to be performed by it

provision thereof and no event has occurred which, with or without notice, the passage of time or
both, would constitute a default by it, or, to the knowledge of PRMA any other party thereto, under
any provision thereof or that would permit modification, acceleration or termination of any

Section 5.5 Licensing.
Neither Purchaser nor any of its officers, directors, principals or Affiliates who may
reasonably be considered in the process of determining the suitability of Purchaser (any such
Persons, the “Licensing Affiliates”) has ever been denied, or had revoked, a gaming license
by a Gaming Authority or Governmental Entity. Purchaser and each of its Licensing Affiliates that
are licensed (collectively, the “Licensed Parties”) are in good standing in each
jurisdiction where Purchaser or its Licensing Affiliates own or operate a gaming facility. To the
knowledge of Purchaser, there are no facts, which if known to the regulators under the Gaming Laws,
that would (a) be reasonably likely to result in the denial, revocation, limitation or suspension
of a gaming license issued to Purchaser, or (b) result in a negative outcome to any finding of
suitability proceedings currently pending, or under the suitability proceedings necessary for the
consummation of this Agreement. Purchaser has no reason to expect that all Gaming Licenses
necessary for it to own and operate the Company and the Convenience Store immediately after Closing
will not be timely obtained.
Section 5.6 Compliance with Gaming Laws.
Purchaser and its Licensing Affiliates hold all Gaming Licenses necessary to operate their
respective gaming businesses, and such Gaming Licenses are in full force and effect and have not
been revoked or suspended, and there has been no violation under such gaming licenses, except for
such as would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of
Purchaser to consummate the acquisition of the Membership Interest and the Convenience Store.
Purchaser and its Licensing Affiliates have not: (i) applied for a casino, racing or other gaming
license in any state or other jurisdiction and been denied; (ii) experienced any revocation or
failure to renew any such license; or (iii) withdrawn or not applied for any such license or
renewal after being informed orally or in writing by any Governmental Authority, that the Company
would be denied such a license or renewal if it were applied for. Purchaser’s and its Licensing
Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees and stockholders hold all governmental
approvals (including all gaming licenses and other authorizations under Gaming Laws) necessary to

46
full force and effect, and there has occurred no default, revocation or suspension under any

which Purchaser has received notice of assertion, or to the knowledge of Purchaser threatened
against, Purchaser or any of its properties or assets, before any Governmental Entity or
arbitration body, the adverse determination of which would reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the ability of Purchaser to consummate the acquisition of the Membership
Interest and there is no Governmental Order or arbitration award outstanding against Purchaser or
any properties or assets which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on
the ability of Purchaser to consummate the acquisition of the Membership Interest or the
Convenience Store. To the knowledge of Purchaser, Purchaser is not a party or subject to
(including any property or asset of Purchaser) or in default of a Governmental Order or arbitration
award.
Section 5.8 Availability of Funds.
At the Closing, Purchaser shall have sufficient cash available to enable it to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to operate the business for the reasonably foreseeable
future, to satisfy the assumed Liabilities and to meet the financial obligations under the
Contracts that Purchaser is assuming as such obligations are presently known or reasonably
anticipated. Attached hereto as Exhibit A are true and correct copies of debt commitment
letters (the “Debt Commitment Letters”) from the financial institutions identified therein
with respect to the financing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Debt
Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and have not been modified or amended in any
respect. Purchaser does not have any reason to believe that such financing shall not be available
or that the commitments contained therein shall not be funded, or that the conditions to the
closing of the financings contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters cannot be satisfied by
Purchaser as of the Closing Date.
Section 5.9 No Breach
The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation by
Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby, do not and will not (a) breach, contravene or
conflict with Purchaser’s articles of incorporation or by-laws, or (b) violate any order,
injunction, judgment, decree or award, or federal, state, local or foreign law, ordinance, statute,
rule or regulation to which Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser is subject or by which
Purchaser, its Affiliates or properties may be bound except where such violations, conflicts,
breaches or defaults would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on
the business, operations or financial condition of Purchaser that adversely affects Purchaser’s
ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
47
Section 5.10 Investment Intent.
Purchaser understands that the Membership Interest may not be sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed of, without registration under the Securities Act or a valid exemption from registration
under the Securities Act and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering
the Membership Interest or a valid exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the
Membership Interest must be held indefinitely. Purchaser is acquiring the Membership Interest for
its own account solely for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for offer or sale
in connection with, any distribution thereof.

to transfer to the Seller any right, title or interest, whether contingent or otherwise, that the
Company has or may claim with respect to the trust created by the Trust Agreement for the MGM
MIRAGE Nonqualified Plans (the “Trust Agreement”), to the extent necessary to enable the
Seller to be treated as the grantor of the account maintained pursuant to section 1.7 of the Trust
Agreement with respect to the Company and to ensure that the payment of such Liabilities will be
deductible by the Seller for Federal and state income tax purposes to the maximum extent allowed by
law, and (ii) amend DCP II and SERP II to provide for acceleration of the payment of benefits

at any time after the Closing Date (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”); and (ii)
for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision and/or disability

taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible,
coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Company Employee and their
covered dependents for such plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New

Section 6.14 Termination Fees.
(a) In the event that either: (X) the MGM Entities are entitled to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to Section 10.1(d) hereof, or (Y) (i) the Closing has not occurred by the Target
Closing Date (as such Target Closing Date may be extended pursuant to Section 10.1(b)
hereof), and (ii) each of the Closing conditions set forth in Section 7.1 have been
satisfied or waived by Purchaser or would have been satisfied but for Purchaser’s failure to use
its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement, and
(iii) each of the Closing conditions set forth in Section 7.3 have been satisfied or waived
by Purchaser or would have been satisfied but for Purchaser failing to use its Commercially
Reasonable Efforts to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement in accordance with

56
hereunder, then in either such event (X) or (Y) the MGM Entities shall have the right, as its sole
and exclusive remedy, to give written notice to Purchaser of their intention to terminate this
Agreement if Purchaser fails to close (or be prepared to close) the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement on or prior to the fifth Business Day following receipt of such written notice and
as promptly as practicable following termination (which shall occur automatically on such fifth
Business Day unless agreed to otherwise by the Parties in writing) Purchaser shall pay, or cause to
be paid, in same day funds to Seller, the sum of Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) (the
“Seller Termination Fee”). Only one Seller Termination Fee shall be payable to Seller
regardless of the circumstances. In the event Seller receives payment of the Seller Termination
Fee, Seller, and Seller on behalf of its Affiliates, agrees to forego and not to pursue (or aid any
other Person in pursuing) or assign any allegation, claim, right or remedy, whether legal or
equitable, including specific performance, against, directly or indirectly, Purchaser or any of
their respective Affiliates, for Purchaser’s failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Subject to the occurrence of the matters set forth in subsection (X) or subsection
(Y) (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the first sentence of this Section 6.14(a), the Parties
acknowledge and agree that the MGM Entities would sustain substantial damages in the event the sale
of the Shares to Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated as a result of
Purchaser’s failure to close, and Seller’s actual damages in the event the sale of the Membership
Interest and Convenience Store to Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated as
a result of Purchaser’s failure to close would be difficult or impractical to determine, and the
Seller Termination Fee represents a reasonable estimate of the harm likely to be suffered by Seller
in the event the sale of the Membership Interest and Convenience Store to Purchaser as contemplated
by this Agreement is not consummated as a result of Purchaser’s failure to close.
(b) In the event that either: (X)(i) the Closing has not occurred by the Target Closing Date;
and (ii) each of the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.1 have been satisfied or
waived by Seller or would have been satisfied but for the MGM Entities’ failure to use its
Commercially Reasonably Efforts to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement; and
(iii) the Closing conditions set forth in Section 7.2 have been satisfied or waived by
Seller or would have been satisfied but for Seller failing to use its Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and Purchaser is not otherwise in default
hereunder, or (Y) prior to the Estimated Closing Date Seller executes an agreement with any other
Person (other than Purchaser) for the sale or transfer of the Membership Interest and Convenience
Store or for substantially all of the Company’s Assets, or (Z) Purchaser is entitled to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(c) hereof, then in any such event (X) or (Y) or (Z)
the Purchaser shall have, as its sole and exclusive remedy, the right to give written notice to
Seller of its intention to terminate this Agreement (which notice shall also provide appropriate
information respecting the Purchaser Termination Fee) and Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, in
same day funds to Purchaser, the amount of Purchaser’s actual and documented third party costs and
expenses associated with this transaction (including without limitation reasonable third party
attorney fees and costs) not to exceed the sum of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) (the
“Purchaser Termination Fee”). Only one Purchaser Termination Fee shall be payable to
Purchaser regardless of the circumstances. Purchaser on behalf of its Affiliates, agrees to forego
and not to pursue (or aid any other Person in pursuing) or assign any allegation, claim, right or
remedy, whether legal or equitable, including specific performance, against, directly or indirectly
Seller, any MGM entity or any of their respective Affiliates, for Seller’s failure to consummate
57
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the occurrence of the matters set
forth in subsections (X)(i), (ii), (iii) or (Y) or (Z) of the first sentence of this Section
6.14(b), the Parties acknowledge and agree that Purchaser would sustain substantial damages in
the event the sale of the Membership Interest and Convenience Store to Purchaser as contemplated by
this Agreement is not consummated as a result of Seller’s failure to close, and Purchaser’s actual
damages in the event the sale of the Membership Interest and Convenience Store to Purchaser as
contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated as a result of Seller’s failure to close would be
difficult or impractical to determine, and the Purchaser Termination Fee represents a reasonable
estimate of the harm likely to be suffered by Purchaser in the event the sale of the Shares to
Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated as a result of Seller’s failure to
close. The foregoing shall be Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of any failure of
the MGM Entities to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

necessary or appropriate to maintain its respective assets and properties.

case at any time after the date of this Agreement and from time to time any further action is
necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest Purchaser with valid and legal
title, to the Membership Interest and all properties and assets of the Company, and the Convenience
Store Assets, each free and clear of all Encumbrances, including to execute, deliver and file all
such further documents including the termination of financing statements, the directors, officers
and employees of the Parties or their Affiliates shall take or cause to be taken all such necessary
or appropriate action in accordance with and subject
58
to the terms of this Agreement and Seller shall bear the cost of any such necessary or
appropriate action; provided that if such action is necessary or appropriate due to
events or circumstances particular to Purchaser, Purchaser shall bear the cost of such action.

Seller, PRMA and Purchaser will, as applicable, not later than fifteen (15) days after the
execution of this Agreement by the Parties, execute and file FCC applications to seek any required

obtained on or before the Closing Date, and no special temporary authority has been granted by the
FCC that allows Purchaser to operate under the FCC licenses, or the consents sought in connection
with the FCC application have not been granted, then the Closing shall nevertheless occur as
scheduled with no reduction in the Purchase Price. In connection with the foregoing, Purchaser
agrees that it will not use or operate any equipment which is the subject of any FCC licenses,
approvals or applications after the Closing in violation of any requirements of the FCC or any
applicable Law.

The Parties agree to use their respective Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cooperate with
any requests for information, filing of forms, communications with the appropriate governmental
entity or other actions which are reasonably necessary in order to obtain such license. If the

nevertheless occur as scheduled with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and the parties will
comply with any applicable requirements of the relevant Governmental Entity or applicable Law.

after the Closing in violation of any requirements of such Governmental Entity.

owe to the Indemnifying Party against any sums it may be entitled to receive under this ARTICLE
VIII.
64
Section 8.3 Indemnification Procedures.
All claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section 8.2 shall be
asserted and resolved as follows:
(a) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which an Indemnified Party might seek
indemnity under Section 8.2 is asserted against or sought to be collected from such
Indemnified Party by a Person other than a Seller Indemnified Party or a Purchaser Indemnified
Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver a Claim Notice
to the Indemnifying Party; provided that no delay on the part of the Indemnified
Party in giving any such Claim Notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification
obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is
materially prejudiced by such delay. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in
writing as soon as practicable within the Dispute Period whether or not the Indemnifying Party
desires, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choosing,
which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, to defend against such Third Party
Claim; provided further that if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that
representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then the Indemnifying Party
shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable fees and expenses of one additional
counsel selected by the Indemnified Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party
promptly upon presentation by the Indemnified Party of invoices or other documentation evidencing
such amounts to be reimbursed.
(i) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute
Period that it desires to defend against such Third Party Claim, (A) the
Indemnifying Party shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to defend and
protect the interests of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party
Claim, (B) the Indemnified Party, prior to or during the period in which the
Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such matter, may take such reasonable
actions as the Indemnified Party deems necessary to preserve any and all rights with
respect to such matter, without such actions being construed as a waiver of the
Indemnified Party’s rights to defense and indemnification pursuant to this
Agreement, (C) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the
entry of any judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim that (i) does not
contain an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in
respect of such Third Party Claim, (ii) involves a finding or admission of
wrongdoing, and (iii) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the
Indemnified Party other than solely the payment of money damages for which the
Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder, (D) the Indemnified Party shall
cooperate at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense to the extent reasonable (during
regular business hours) with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the
investigation, defense and settlement thereof and (E) the Indemnifying Party shall
be deemed to have agreed that it will indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to,
and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in, the provisions of this
Article VIII.
65
(ii) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within the
Dispute Period that it desires to defend against such Third Party Claim, then the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense at its
sole cost and expense, but, in such case, the Indemnified Party shall control the
investigation and defense and may settle or take any other actions the Indemnified
Party deems reasonably advisable without in any way waiving or otherwise affecting
the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.
(iii) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to make available
to each other, their counsel and other representatives, all information and
documents available to them which relate to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party, the Company and its employees also agree to render
to each other such assistance and cooperation as may reasonably be required to
ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Third Party Claim.
(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely in the event of clause (i) of this
Section 8.3(a), if the Indemnified Party desires to participate in any
defense of a Third Party Claim it may do so at its sole cost and expense, and the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to control, pay or settle any Third Party
Claim which the Indemnifying Party shall have undertaken to defend so long as the
Indemnified Party shall also waive any right to indemnification therefor by the
Indemnifying Party.
(b) In the event that an Indemnified Party should have a claim against the Indemnifying Party
hereunder which it determines to assert, but which does not involve a Third Party Claim, the
Indemnified Party shall send an Indemnity Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying
Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the Dispute Period during which to notify the Indemnified
Party in writing of any good faith objections it has to the Indemnified Party’s Indemnity Notice,
setting forth in reasonable detail each of the Indemnifying Party’s objections thereto. If the
Indemnifying Party does not deliver such written notice of objection within the Dispute Period, the
Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted responsibility for the prompt payment of the
Indemnified Party’s claims for indemnification set forth in the Indemnity Notice, and shall have no
further right to contest the validity of such indemnification claims. If the Indemnifying Party
does deliver such written notice of objection within the Dispute Period, the Indemnifying Party and
the Indemnified Party shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such dispute within the Resolution
Period and if not resolved through negotiations within the Resolution Period, the parties may
pursue any and all remedies available under the law, subject to Section 11.5 hereinafter.
(c) Claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 shall not be made after the
expiration of the representations and warranties as provided for in Section 8.1;
provided, however, that in the event a Claim Notice or an Indemnity Notice shall
have been given within the applicable survival period, the representation or warranty that is the
subject of such indemnification claim shall survive until such time as such claim is finally
resolved
66
ARTICLE IX
TAX MATTERS
Section 9.1 Tax Indemnification.
(a) Seller shall, subject to Section 8.2, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Purchaser Indemnified Parties against, and shall reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for,
any and all Losses arising out of, based upon or relating or attributable to (without duplication):
(i) all non-income Taxes of Parent and Seller, and all Taxes imposed on the
Company relating or attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the
Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Period”) and, with respect to any period that
includes but does not end on the Closing Date (in each case, a “Straddle
Period”), the portion of such Straddle Period deemed to end on and include the
Closing Date (in the manner determined pursuant to Section 9.1(b);
(ii) except as otherwise specifically set forth in Section 6.21 of this
Agreement, all Taxes relating or attributable to the transactions contemplated
pursuant to this Agreement;
(iii) the breach of any representation or warranty with respect to Tax matters
by Seller or PRMA and the breach by Seller or PRMA or the failure by any such entity
to perform (or cause to have performed) any of the covenants made by them under this
Agreement relating to Taxes;
(iv) any Liability for Taxes of PRMA, including without limitation, (A) any
Taxes that relate to, or otherwise arise out of, the Convenience Store with respect
to all periods through (and including) the Closing Date, and (B) any Taxes of PRMA
for any period that is not related to the Convenience Store; and
(v) all Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the
assets of the Convenience Store for a taxable period that includes (but does not end
on) the Closing Date to the extent attributable to the period prior to the Closing
based on the number of days of such taxable period included in the period through
and including the Closing Date;
provided, however, that in connection with any or all of (i) through
(v) above, Seller shall be liable only to the extent that such Taxes are in excess of the
amount taken into account in arriving at the Final Purchase Price.
(b) For purposes of this Section 9.1, the portion of any Taxes that are allocable to
the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be:
(i) in the case of Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis, the amount of
such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on (and
67
including) the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of
calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period; and
(ii) in the case of Taxes not described in (i) the amount that would be payable
if the taxable year or period ended on the Closing Date based on an interim closing
of the books.
Section 9.2 Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns and Payment of
Taxes.
(a) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file or cause the Company to prepare and timely file
all Tax Returns required by Law to be filed by the Company for all Straddle Periods (the
“Straddle Period Tax Returns”). For the sake of clarity, such returns shall not include
any income Tax returns that are required to be filed by Parent. Parent and Seller shall be liable
for any income Taxes with respect to such returns. Purchaser shall deliver drafts of all such
Straddle Period Tax Returns to Parent and Seller for their review at least twenty (20) days prior
to the due date of any such Tax Return (taking into account valid extensions) to the extent that
such parties are liable for any Taxes shown on such Tax Returns and shall notify Parent and Seller
of Purchaser’s calculation of their share of the Taxes for such Straddle Period (determined in
accordance with Section 9.1(b)); provided, however, that such drafts of any
such Straddle Period Tax Returns and such calculations of Parent’s and Seller’s share of the Tax
Liability for such Straddle Period (determined in accordance with Section 9.1(b)) shall be
subject to Parent’s and Seller’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. If either of Parent or Seller shall dispute any item on such Tax Return, it
shall notify Purchaser (by written notice within ten (10) days of receipt of Purchaser’s
calculation) of such disputed item (or items) and the basis for its objection. If Parent and
Seller do not object by written notice within such period, Purchaser’s calculation of Parent and
Seller’s share of the Taxes for such Straddle Period shall be deemed to have been accepted and
agreed upon, and final and conclusive, for all purposes hereof. No later than five (5) Business
Days prior to the due date for the filing of any Tax Return covering any period prior to Closing
(giving effect to any extension), Parent or Seller shall pay the Company or Purchaser an amount
equal to the portion of the Taxes for which they are liable pursuant to Section 9.1.
(b) The Parties shall act in good faith to resolve any dispute prior to the date on which the
Tax Return is required to be filed. If the Parties cannot resolve any disputed item, the item in
question shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm as promptly as practicable. Upon
resolution of all such items, the relevant Tax Return shall be timely filed on that basis,
provided, however, that if after using reasonable best efforts, the parties are
unable to resolve the matter in dispute before any Tax Return that is the subject of a disagreement
is due, such Tax Return may be filed as prepared by Purchaser, subject to adjustment or amendment
upon resolution, and the making of any payments necessary to give effect to the resolution. The
fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be apportioned and paid equally by
Seller and Purchaser.
68
Section 9.3 Accounting and Tax Records.
Seller shall provide Purchaser with all Tax Returns other than Income Tax Returns that report
the activity of the Company (and other information relating to Taxes) of or relating to the Company
reasonably requested by Purchaser. Purchaser shall keep and maintain all such Tax Returns (and
other information relating to Taxes) and shall make available to Seller such Tax Returns and
information as reasonably required by Seller to allow Seller to satisfy its obligations under
ARTICLE IX.
Within twenty-five (25) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller an
income statement covering the period from the last regularly prepared income statement through the
Closing Date.
Section 9.4 Tax Audits.
(a) After the Closing, Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand (the
“Recipient”), shall promptly notify the other Person in writing upon receipt by the
Recipient or any of its Affiliates of any written notice of any pending or threatened audit or
assessment, suit, proposed adjustment, deficiency, dispute, administrative or judicial proceeding
or other similar claim (“Tax Claim”) received by the Recipient from any Tax authority or
any other Person with respect to Losses for which Seller is liable pursuant to Section 9.1
or Section 6.21; provided, however, that a failure by Purchaser to give
such notice shall not affect the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ rights to indemnification under
this ARTICLE IX unless (and then solely to the extent) that Seller is materially prejudiced
as a consequence of such failure.
(b) Except with respect to any income Tax Claim which involves the activities of the Company,
Parent and Seller shall control the conduct, through their own counsel at their sole expense, of
any Tax Claim involving any asserted Liability with respect or relating solely to any Pre-Closing
Period. Parent or Seller, as the case may be, shall have all rights to settle, compromise and/or
concede such Tax Claim and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate and shall cause the Company to
reasonably cooperate; provided, however, that, Parent or Seller shall not settle,
compromise and/or concede such Tax Claim in a manner that would adversely affect Purchaser or the
Company without the consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.
(c) With respect to any Tax Claim that involves any Straddle Period (other than an income Tax
Claim which involves the activities of the Company), Purchaser shall control the conduct of any
such Tax Claim, through counsel of Purchaser’s own choosing with participation by Parent and Seller
(at Parent and Seller’s expense) and Purchaser shall have all rights to settle, compromise and/or
concede such Tax Claim and Parent and Seller shall reasonably cooperate; provided,
however, that Purchaser shall not settle, compromise and/or concede such Tax Claim in a
manner that would adversely affect Parent or Seller without the consent of Parent and Seller, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(d) Parent and Seller shall control the conduct, through their own counsel at their sole
expense, of any income Tax Claim which involves the activities of the Company for any pre-
69
Closing period and shall have all rights to settle, compromise and/or concede such Tax Claim
without the consent of Purchaser.
Section 9.5 Purchase Price — Allocation for Tax Purposes.
Reasonably promptly after the Closing Date, but not later than June 30, 2007, Purchaser shall
provide to Seller and PRMA a proposed allocation of the Final Purchase Price (as defined for
federal income Tax purposes) among the assets of the Company, and a proposed allocation of the
Convenience Store Purchase Price among the Convenience Store Assets, which allocations shall be
made in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and any applicable Treasury Regulations
(collectively, the “Allocation Statement”). Within fourteen (14) days following such
provision, Seller and PRMA shall have the right to object to the Allocation Statement (by written
notice to the Purchaser), and if either so objects, it shall notify Purchaser (in such written
notice) of such disputed item (or items) and the basis for its objection. If Seller and PRMA do
not object by written notice within such period, the Allocation Statement shall be deemed to have
been accepted and agreed upon, and final and conclusive, for all purposes of this Agreement.
Seller, PRMA and Purchaser shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute prior to the date
on which any of the allocations are required to be filed with the appropriate Tax authority. If
Seller, PRMA and Purchaser cannot resolve any disputed item, the item in question shall be resolved
by the Independent Accounting Firm as promptly as practicable. The fees and expenses of the
Independent Accounting Firm shall be apportioned and paid equally by Seller and Purchaser. Except
with respect to any subsequent adjustments to the Final Purchase Price (which shall be allocated
using the mechanism for allocating Final Purchase Price in this Section 9.5), Seller, PRMA
and Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates, (i) shall be bound by the determinations and the
Allocation Statement determined pursuant to this Section 9.5 consistently therewith for
purposes of determining any Taxes, (ii) shall prepare and file all Tax Returns to be filed with any
Tax authority in a manner consistent with the Allocation Statement and (iii) shall take no position
inconsistent with the Allocation Statement in any Tax Return, any proceeding before any Tax
authority or otherwise. In the event that the Allocation Statement is disputed by any Tax
authority, the Person receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the
other Parties concerning resolution of such dispute.
Each of Seller, PRMA and Purchaser shall cooperate in the preparation and timely filing of (i)
Form 8594 and any comparable state or local forms or reports, and (ii) to the extent permissible by
or required by Law, any correction, amendments, or supplements (or additional forms or reports)
thereto (including any supplements, amendments, forms or reports arising as a result of any
adjustments to the Final Purchase Price).
70
Section 9.6 Tax Treatment.
The Parties agree to treat any payment made pursuant to ARTICLE VIII or ARTICLE
IX as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, except as otherwise
required by law.
Section 9.7 Refunds and Tax Benefits.
Any Tax refunds that are received by any of the MGM Entities, and any amounts credited against
Tax to which Purchaser or any of the MGM Entities becomes entitled, that relate to Tax periods or
portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date (but only to the extent such amounts are in
excess of the amount, if any, of Tax receivables and offsets to Tax reserves on the financial
statements of the Company from which the Final Statement was derived) shall be for the account of
Parent, and Purchaser shall pay over to Parent (a) any such cash refund within fifteen days after
receipt thereof and (b) the amount of Tax savings realized by Purchaser or any of the MGM Entities
at the time the Tax Return to which such credit relates is filed by Purchaser or any of the MGM
Entities. Any Tax refunds that are received by Parent or any of its Affiliates, and any amounts
credited against Tax to which Parent or any of its Affiliates becomes entitled (other than refunds
of income Taxes and/or any amounts credited against Tax resulting from adjustments in connection
with the activities of the Company which shall be for the account of Parent), that relate to Taxes
of the Company for Tax periods or portions thereof after the Closing Date shall be for the account
of Purchaser, and Parent or its Affiliates shall pay over to Purchaser (a) any such cash refund
within fifteen days after receipt thereof and (b) the amount of Tax savings realized by Parent or
any of its Affiliates at the time the Tax Return to which such credit relates is filed by Parent or
any of its Affiliates.

This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at

(b) by the MGM Entities, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, if the transactions
contemplated hereby shall not have been consummated on or prior to the Target Closing Date;
provided that if the only condition to the Closing that remains unsatisfied (except
for any condition that by its terms can only be satisfied at the Closing) on the Target Closing

71
available to any of the Parties whose willful breach or nonfulfillment or failure to perform
has prevented the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the latest of
such dates in effect being the “Outside Closing Date”); or
(c) by Purchaser, if there has been a material breach or violation by any of the MGM Entities
of any of its representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement that has not
been waived by Purchaser in writing and has not been cured by the MGM Entity in all material
respects within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof; provided, that if such breach cannot
reasonably be cured within such thirty day period but can be reasonably cured prior to the Outside
Closing Date and Seller is diligently proceeding to cure, and continues to diligently proceed to
cure such breach, this Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this Section 10.1(c); or
(d) by the MGM Entities, if there has been a material breach or violation by Purchaser of any
of its representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement that has not been
waived by the MGM Entities in writing and has not been cured by Purchaser in all material respects

such breach, this Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this Section 10.1(d); or
(e) by Purchaser if any of the conditions to the obligation of Purchaser set forth in

shall not have been waived by Purchaser in writing; provided, however, that
Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section
10.1(e) if Purchaser is in breach in any material respect of its representations and warranties
or covenants contained in this Agreement; or
(f) by the MGM Entities if any of the conditions to the obligation of the MGM Entities set
forth in Section7.2 shall have become incapable of fulfillment and shall not have been
waived by the MGM Entities in writing; provided, however, that the MGM Entities
shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(f) if any
of the MGM Entities is in breach in any material respect of its representations and warranties or
covenants contained in this Agreement; or
(g) by the MGM Entities, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, if a Governmental
Entity shall have issued a nonappealable, final Governmental Order or taken any other nonappealable
final action, in each case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise
prohibiting the Closing and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

72
nor shall such termination relieve Purchaser of its obligation to pay the Seller Termination
Fee or Seller to pay the Purchaser Termination Fee, respectively, if applicable; provided
further that the provisions of this Section 10.2 and Section 6.4,
Section 6.14, Section 11.1, Section 11.4, Section 11.5, Section

Section 11.3 Interpretation
When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section or Sections, such reference shall be
to a Section or Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and
headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any
way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or
“including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation.” Words used in the singular form in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the
plural, and vice versa, as the sense may require. If the date upon or by which any party hereto is
required to perform any covenant or obligation hereunder falls on a day that is not a Business Day,
then such date of performance shall be automatically extended to the next Business Day thereafter.
Section 11.4 Governing Law.
This Agreement, and any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Parties’
relationship, shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws applicable to
74
contracts made and to be performed entirely in Nevada, without regard to any applicable
conflicts of Law, except to the extent the mandatory provisions of the Gaming Laws apply.
Section 11.5 Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue for Dispute Resolution;
Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) Each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District Court for the District of Nevada or any court of the State of Nevada located in Xxxxx
County in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to any claim, controversy or
dispute, whether based in contract, tort, statute or any other legal or equitable theory, arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, and agrees
that any such action, suit or proceeding shall be brought only in such court; provided,
however, that such consent to jurisdiction is solely for the purpose referred to in this
Section 11.5 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to the jurisdiction of said
courts or in the State of Nevada other than for such purpose. Each of the Parties hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding brought in such a
court. Each of the Parties further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any
such action, suit or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section 11.6 Time of the Essence.
Time is of the essence in performing covenants and agreements under this Agreement.
Section 11.7 Assignment.
Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement
shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the
prior written consent of each of the other Parties; provided that Purchaser may assign this
Agreement to any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries provided that such assignment does not hinder or
delay the receipt of Governmental Approvals necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby; and, provided further that in no event shall any such assignment by Purchaser relieve
Purchaser of any of its obligations hereunder, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective assigns.
Section 11.8 Amendment.
This Agreement may not be amended or modified by the Parties except (a) by an instrument in
writing signed by each of the Parties and (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 11.9.

75
At any time prior to the Closing, the Parties (by action taken or authorized by their
respective boards of directors or similar governing body, in the case of Purchaser or Seller), may,
to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for or waive the performance of any of the
covenants, obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the
representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and
(c) waive compliance with any of the conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the
part of any of the Parties to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a
written instrument signed on its behalf. The failure of any of the Parties to assert any of its
rights under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.
Section 11.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries.
Except for the provisions of (a) ARTICLE VIII with respect to Indemnified Parties, and
(b) Section 11.14, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties, and their
permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any
Person, other than the Parties and such assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder. All
references herein to the enforceability of agreements with third parties, the existence or
non-existence of third-party rights, the absence of breaches or defaults by third parties, or
similar matters or statements, are intended only to allocate rights and risks among the Parties and
were not intended to be admissions against interests, give rise to any inference or proof of
accuracy, be admissible against any Party by any non-Party, or give rise to any claim or benefit to
any non-Party.
Section 11.11 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules, the Schedules and the other writings referred to
herein or delivered pursuant hereto that form a part hereof constitute the entire agreement with
respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and
undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
and thereof.
Section 11.12 Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being
enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the
transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any of the
Parties. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable
of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to
effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the
greatest extent possible.
Section 11.13 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, including facsimile counterparts,

The Parties acknowledge that neither Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx nor Tracinda Corporation, individually or
collectively, is a party to this Agreement or any of the other documents executed on the Closing

Corporation by reason of such alleged breach, default or claim.
Section 11.15 Disclosure Schedules.
The Disclosure Schedules shall be arranged in paragraphs corresponding to the numbered and
lettered paragraphs contained in this Agreement and the disclosure in any paragraph shall qualify
the other paragraphs in this Agreement only to the extent it is readily apparent from the face of
the statement that it is applicable. The inclusion of any information in any section of a
Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission, acknowledgment or evidence (i) of the
materiality of such item, nor shall it establish a standard of materiality for any purpose
whatsoever, (ii) that the matter is required to be disclosed pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, or (iii) that such information actually constitutes noncompliance with, or a violation
of, any agreement, law, regulation or statute to which such disclosure is applicable. The
Disclosure Schedules and the information, description and disclosures included therein are intended
to qualify and limit all the representations, warranties and covenants of the applicable Party
contained in this Agreement, and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of
any of such representations, warranties or covenants. Except as otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement to the contrary, the Disclosure Schedules may only be amended by an instrument in
writing signed by the Parties.
