liability company ("Borrower"), the lenders from time to time party thereto
(collectively, the "Banks" and individually, a "Bank"), First Interstate Bank of

AGREEMENT
---------
NOW, THEREFORE, in order to induce the Banks to extend credit
facilities to Borrower under the Loan Agreement, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged,
Guarantors hereby agree as follows:
2. Completion Guaranty and Agreement.
---------------------------------
Guarantors, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantee that:
(a) Guarantors shall complete or cause to be completed the construction of
the Project in conformity in all material respects with the Construction
Plans, the Construction Budget, the Construction Timetable and the Loan
Agreement, free and clear of material defects and, except for Permitted
Encumbrances, Liens or claims for Liens for material supplied or labor or
services performed in connection therewith.
(b) If the Construction Budget is insufficient to complete the Project in
accordance with the Construction Plans, the Guarantors shall promptly make
or cause to be made Cash Equity Contributions to Borrower sufficient to
permit such completion .
(c) If the Completion Date does not occur on or before September 15, 1997,
the Guarantors shall promptly make or cause to be made Cash Equity
Contributions to Borrower in an amount equal to $250,000 multiplied by the
number of days between July 31, 1997 and the Completion Date.
3. Payment Provisions in the Event of Bankruptcy.
---------------------------------------------
In the event, prior to the Completion Date, that the Borrower becomes
insolvent or subject to an Insolvency Proceeding as defined below,
notwithstanding Section 1, but subject to confirmation by the Managing Agent
---------
that any undisbursed Loans will be made pursuant to the Loan Agreement and
confirmation by the Equipment Lessors that any undisbursed equipment purchase
prices will be made pursuant to the Equipment Lease, in each case subject to the
terms and conditions thereof (excluding such Insolvency Proceeding), Guarantors
---------
guarantee and agree that:
(a) To the extent the Construction Budget is insufficient to complete the
Project in accordance with the Construction Plans, the Guarantors shall
make or cause to
-2-
be made Cash payments into an interest-bearing deposit account designated
and controlled exclusively by the Managing Agent (the "Deposit Account") in
which the Managing Agent is hereby granted a security interest for the
benefit of the Banks as to the Banks' Percentage and for the benefit of the
Equipment Lessors as to the Equipment Lessors Percentage. The Deposit
Account is intended to be a "deposit account" for the purposes of Nevada
Revised Statutes ("NRS") 40.430.4(g). Such funds in the Deposit Account
shall only be available for and used to complete construction of the
Project.
(b) If the Completion Date does not occur on or before September 15, 1997,
the Guarantors shall make or cause to be made a Cash payment into the
Deposit Account in the amount required under Section 1(c). Such funds shall
------------
be held in the Deposit Account as additional collateral for the Obligations
under the Loan Agreement as to the Banks' Percentage and for the benefit of
the Equipment Lessors as to the Equipment Lessors Percentage; provided
--------
that, if requested by Borrower, such funds (i) shall applied to payment of
the Obligations as to the Banks' Percentage and to prepayment of the
Equipment Lease as to the Equipment Lessors' Percentage and/or (ii) shall
be applied, with the approval of the Requisite Banks (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld) to payment of such other obligations of Borrower
incurred in the ordinary course for the acquisition of goods or services
which have enhanced or maintained the value of the Collateral covered by
the Collateral Documents.
(c) The Cash payments into the Deposit Account and the funds therein shall
be free and clear of any third party claims thereto, including any claims
by Borrower as a third party beneficiary under this Guaranty. The
Guarantors and the Managing Agent on behalf of the Banks specifically agree
that Borrower is not an intended third party beneficiary to this Guaranty
and that Borrower has no rights under this Guaranty.
(d) If, notwithstanding Section 2(a) or 2(b) above, Borrower asserts in an
--------------------
Insolvency Proceeding that it holds the right under this Guaranty to have
Cash Equity Contributions made to it directly or that funds in the Deposit
Account deposited pursuant to Section 2(a) shall or may be used for any
------------
purposes other than completion of the Project or that funds in the Deposit
Account deposited pursuant to Section 2(b) are not collateral solely for
------------
the Obligations under the Loan Agreement, then this Guaranty shall
automatically become a continuing unconditional guaranty by the Guarantors
of the full and timely payment when due of the Obligations under the Loan
Agreement to
-3-
the extent and in the amount of the Banks' Percentage of the Cash Equity
Contributions that have been made and are required to be made pursuant to
this Guaranty and of the obligations under the Equipment Lease to the
extent and in the amount of the Equipment Lessors' Percentage of such Cash
Equity Contributions.
(e) the term "Insolvency Proceeding" means any case or proceeding,
voluntary or involuntary, under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar
existing or future law of any jurisdiction, state or federal, relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency reorganization or relief of debtors.
4. Performance of Guaranty. In fulfilling their obligations
-----------------------
hereunder, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantee, promise and agree to perform and comply (or cause
Borrower to perform and comply) with all provisions and conditions of the Loan
Agreement relating to (a) the construction of the Project within the time and in
the manner set forth in Construction Plans and the Construction Timetable, (b)
the payment of all costs and expenses thereof, (c) the payment, satisfaction or
discharge of all Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) that are or may be
imposed upon or asserted against Borrower, the Project or the Project Property
in connection with the construction of the Project, and (d) the defense and
indemnification of the Managing Agent and the Banks against all such Liens
(other then Permitted Encumbrances), whether arising from the furnishing of
labor, materials, supplies or equipment, from taxes, assessments, fees or other
charges, from injuries or damage to Persons or property, or otherwise in
connection with the construction of the Project. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, Guarantors agree (w) to cause any and all costs of
constructing and completing the Project, including, without limitation, the
costs of all labor, materials, supplies and equipment related thereto, to be
paid and satisfied as the same shall become due, subject to Guarantors' right to
remove any Liens arising therefrom by securing bond(s) therefor, (x) to cause
the net amount of cost overruns to be directly or indirectly funded, paid and
satisfied from Guarantors' own resources, (y) directly or indirectly to cause
the completion of the Project in a timely, good, workmanlike and Lien-free
manner (except for Permitted Encumbrances), in accordance in all material
respects with the terms of the Construction Plans, the Construction Budget and
the Construction Timetable and (z) to cause all pre-operating and carrying costs
of the Project, including, without limitation the payment of taxes, assessments,
utilities, insurance and maintenance expenses, to be funded, paid and satisfied
as the same shall become due throughout the term of this Guaranty.
-4-
5. Procedures for Completion.
-------------------------
5.1 In the event that Borrower fails to perform all of its
Obligations under the Loan Agreement relating to construction of the Project,
then in any such event or at any time thereafter, the Managing Agent may give
written notice to Guarantors of the occurrence of such event.
5.2 Within ten (10) days after the date on which the Managing
Agent gives any such notice to Guarantors, but subject to confirmation by the
Managing Agent that any undisbursed Loans will be made pursuant to the Loan
Agreement subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Guarantors, at their sole
cost (exclusive of undisbursed Loans), shall commence to complete the
construction of the Project and diligently prosecute such construction to
completion within the time and in the manner specified in the Construction
Timetable, free of Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) and fully paid for,
----- ----
and shall defend, indemnify and hold the Managing Agent and/or the Banks
harmless from all losses, costs, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys'
fees, incurred in connection with such completion. If at the date of such
notice, there are no undisbursed Loans allocated to construction of the Project,
the Guarantors' obligations under this Section shall be absolute. If on such
date there are any such undisbursed Loans, the obligations of the Guarantors
under this Section shall be that percentage of the remaining costs to complete
the Project equal to 100% minus the percentage thereof represented by the
undisbursed Loans.
5.3 If Guarantors fail to commence to complete the construction
of the Project or diligently to prosecute such construction to timely completion
as provided in Section 4.2 above, then in addition to all other rights and
-----------
remedies that may be available to the Managing Agent under the Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity, the Managing Agent may
proceed as follows:
(a) Managing Agent may, at the Managing Agent's option, enter the Project
Property to complete construction of the Project (either itself or through
any agent, contractor or subcontractor of its selection), which option of
the Managing Agent shall be exercisable whether or not the Managing Agent
elects to proceed judicially or non-judicially to foreclose on all or any
portion of the Collateral.
(b) The Managing Agent, at its option and in accordance with the
Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall have the right, but
shall have no obligation, to proceed judicially or non-judicially to
foreclose on all
-5-
or any portion of the Collateral, exercisable whether or not the Managing
Agent elects to undertake to complete the construction of the Project.
(c) If the Managing Agent elects to undertake to complete the construction
of the Project, and whether or not the Managing Agent elects to proceed
judicially or non-judicially to foreclose on all or any portion of the
Collateral, the Managing Agent shall have the right to recover damages from
Guarantors' in an amount equal to the sum of:
(i) the costs reasonably incurred or
reasonably estimated to be incurred by the Managing Agent to
complete the construction of the Project as set forth in
Paragraph 2 hereof minus any undisbursed Loans allocated to
construction of the Project (the "Cost to Complete"), provided
--------
that with respect to damages recovered for costs estimated to be
incurred by the Managing Agent, such funds shall be used for no
purpose other than the construction of the Project and provided
--------
further that should the total actual costs incurred by the
-------
Managing Agent to complete the construction of the Project be
less than the Cost to Complete, the amount by which the Cost to
Complete recovered by the Managing Agent exceeds such actual
construction costs shall be remitted to Guarantors; plus
(ii) All unreimbursed costs and expenses,
including attorneys' fees, reasonably incurred by the Managing
Agent in protecting and preserving the Project and enforcing or
defending the interests of the Banks under this Guaranty (the
"Unreimbursed Expenses").
(d) In any action or proceeding by the Managing Agent to recover damages
from Guarantors, the Managing Agent may exercise any and all remedies
available under applicable Law.
5.4 The remedy of specific performance, the recovery of damages
and all other rights and remedies under this Guaranty, under the Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity are intended to be non-
exclusive and cumulative. The parties recognize that the choice of remedies by
the Managing Agent will necessarily and properly be a matter of business
judgment, which the passage of time and events may or may not prove to have been
the best choice to
-6-
maximize recovery by the Managing Agent at the lowest cost to either the
Borrower or the Guarantors. Nevertheless, the choice of alternatives by the
Managing Agent shall not be subject to question or challenge by Guarantors or
any other Person, nor shall any such choice be asserted as a defense, set-off or
basis for any claim of failure to mitigate damages in any action or proceeding
arising from this Guaranty.
6. Commencement of Lawsuit by Managing Agent; Measure of Damages.
-------------------------------------------------------------
At any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Guaranty,
Managing Agent, on behalf of the Banks, may commence a lawsuit against
Guarantors to compel Guarantors to perform their obligations under this Guaranty
and/or to recover damages under this Guaranty. The Banks' damages under this
Guaranty shall include: (a) the costs of completing the Project and/or
correcting any construction defects, minus any undisbursed Loans allocated to
-----
construction of the Project , (b) damages arising from any delay in completing
the Project, including interest, taxes and insurance premiums, and (c) Banks'
attorneys' fees and costs. Managing Agent need not perform any work on the
Project before commencing such a lawsuit. GUARANTORS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
THE MEASURE OF THE BANKS' DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE BASED ON
THE COSTS OF COMPLETING THE PROJECT, NOT THE EXTENT TO WHICH COMPLETING THE
PROJECT WOULD INCREASE THE VALUE OF THE PROJECT PROPERTY.
7. Rights of the Managing Agent. Each Guarantor authorizes the
----------------------------
Managing Agent and the Banks to perform any or all of the following acts at any
time in their sole discretion, all without notice to Guarantors and without
affecting Guarantors' obligations under this Guaranty:
(a) The Managing Agent and the Banks may alter any terms of the Loan
Documents to which Guarantors are not a party, including renewing,
compromising, extending or accelerating, or otherwise changing the time for
payment of, or increasing or decreasing the rate of interest on, the Loans
or any part of them.
(b) The Managing Agent and the Banks may take and hold security for the
Loans or this Guaranty, accept additional or substituted security for
either, and subordinate, exchange, enforce, waive, release, compromise,
fail to perfect and sell or otherwise dispose of any such security.
(c) The Managing Agent and the Banks may direct the order and manner of
any sale of all or any part of any security now or later to be held for the
Loans or this Guaranty, and may also bid at any such sale.
-7-
(d) The Managing Agent and the Banks may apply any payments or recoveries
from Borrower, any Guarantor or any other source, and any proceeds of any
security, to Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents in such
manner, order and priority as they may elect, whether or not those
obligations are guarantied by this Guaranty or secured at the time of the
application.
(e) The Managing Agent and the Banks may release Borrower of its liability
for the Loans or any portion thereof.
(f) The Managing Agent and the Banks may substitute, add or release any
one or more guarantors or endorsers.
(g) In addition to the Loans, the Managing Agent and the Banks may extend
other credit to Borrower, and may take and hold security for the credit so
extended, all without affecting Guarantors' liability under this Guaranty.
(h) The Managing Agent and the Banks may approve modifications to the
Construction Contracts, Construction Budget and/or the Construction
Timetable.
(i) The Managing Agent and the Banks may change the terms or conditions of
disbursement of the Loans.
(j) The Managing Agent and the Banks may advance additional funds to
Borrower for purposes related to those of the Loan Documents.
8. Guaranty to be Absolute. Guarantors expressly agree that until
-----------------------
the Project is fully completed in all material respects in accordance with the
Construction Plans, the Construction Budget and the Construction Timetable and
each and every term, covenant and condition of this Guaranty is fully performed,
Guarantors shall not be released by or because of:
(a) Any act or event which might otherwise discharge, reduce, limit or
modify Guarantors' obligations under this Guaranty;
(b) Any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, delay or other act
or omission of the Managing Agent or the Banks, or any failure to proceed
promptly or otherwise as against Borrower, any Guarantor or any security;
(c) Any action, omission or circumstance which might increase the
likelihood that Guarantors may be called upon to perform under this
Guaranty or which might affect the rights or remedies of Guarantors as
against Borrower; or
-8-
(d) Any dealings occurring at any time between Borrower, the Managing
Agent or any Bank, whether relating to the Loans or otherwise.
Guarantors hereby expressly waive and surrender any defense to their
liability under this Guaranty based upon any of the foregoing acts, omissions,
agreements, waivers or matters. It is the purpose and intent of this Guaranty
that the obligations of Guarantors under it shall be absolute and unconditional
under any and all circumstances.
9. Guarantors' Waivers. Guarantors waive:
-------------------
(a) All statutes of limitations as a defense to any action or proceeding
brought against Guarantors by the Managing Agent or any Bank, to the
fullest extent permitted by Law;
(b) Any right they may have to require the Managing Agent or the Banks to
proceed against Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security held from
Borrower, or pursue any other remedy in their power to pursue;
(c) Any defense based on any claim that Guarantors' obligations exceed or
are more burdensome than those of Borrower;
(d) Any defense based on: (i) any legal disability of Borrower, (ii) any
release, discharge, modification, impairment or limitation of the liability
of Borrower under the Loan Documents from any cause, whether consented to
by the Managing Agent or any Bank or arising by operation of Law or from
any Insolvency Proceeding, (iii) any rejection or disaffirmance of the
Loans or any security held for the Loans, in any Insolvency Proceeding and
(iv) Guarantors' rights under NRS 104.3605, Guarantors specifically
agreeing that this clause (iv) shall constitute a waiver of discharge under
NRS 104.3605;
(e) Any defense based on any action taken or omitted by the Managing Agent
or any Bank in any Insolvency Proceeding involving Borrower, including any
election to have a claim allowed as being secured, partially secured or
unsecured, any extension of credit by the Managing Agent or any Bank to
Borrower in any Insolvency Proceeding, and the taking and holding by the
Managing Agent or any Bank of any security for any such extension of
credit;
(f) All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of
this Guaranty and of
-9-
the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness,
and demands and notices of every kind except for any demand or notice
expressly provided for in Section 1;
---------
(g) Any defense based on or arising out of any defense that Borrower may
have to the payment or performance of the Loans or any portion of the
Loans; and
(h) Any defense or benefit based on NRS 40.430 and judicial decisions
relating thereto and NRS 40.451 et seq. and judicial decisions relating
-- ---
thereto, Guarantors agreeing that the waiver in this paragraph (h) is
intended to take advantage of the two (2) waivers permitted by NRS 40.495
(1) and (2) to the maximum extent permitted.
10. Waivers of Subrogation and Other Rights.
---------------------------------------
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Managing Agent in its
sole discretion, without prior notice to or consent of Guarantors, may
elect to: (i) foreclose either judicially or nonjudicially against any real
or personal property security for the Loans, (ii) accept a transfer of any
such security in lieu of foreclosure, (iii) compromise or adjust the Loans
or any part thereof or make any other accommodation with Borrower or any
other guarantor, or (iv) exercise any other remedy against Borrower or any
security. No such action by the Managing Agent or any Bank shall release or
limit the liability of Guarantors, who shall remain liable under this
Guaranty after the action, even if the effect of the action is to deprive
Guarantors of any subrogation rights, rights of indemnity, or other rights
to collect reimbursement from Borrower for any sums paid to the Managing
Agent or the Banks, whether contractual or arising by operation of Law or
otherwise. Guarantors expressly waive any defenses or benefits that may be
derived from NRS Section 40.430 and judicial decisions relating thereto and
NRS 40.451, et seq. and judicial decisions relating thereto, or comparable
-- ---
provisions of Nevada Law which are comparable to California Civil Procedure
(S)(S) 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 or comparable provisions of the Laws of any
other jurisdiction, and all other suretyship defenses they otherwise might
or would have under Nevada Law or other applicable Law. Guarantors
expressly agree that under no circumstances shall they be deemed to have
any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real or personal property
to be held by the Managing Agent or any Bank or any third party after any
foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any security for the
Loans.
-10-
(b) Regardless of whether Guarantors may have made any payments to the
Managing Agent or any Bank, Guarantors hereby waive: (i) all rights of
subrogation, all rights of indemnity, and any other rights to collect
reimbursement from Borrower for any sums paid to the Managing Agent or any
Bank, whether contractual or arising by operation of Law (including the
United States Bankruptcy Code or any successor or similar statute) or
otherwise, (ii) all rights to enforce any remedy that the Managing Agent or
any Bank may have against Borrower, and (iii) all rights to participate in
any security now or later to be held by the Managing Agent or any Bank for
the Loans. The waivers given in this subsection 9(b) shall be effective
---------------
until the Loans and all other Obligations have been paid and performed in
full and all Commitments have been terminated.
(c) Guarantors understand and acknowledge that if the Managing Agent or
any Bank forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property
security for the Loans, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any
ability that Guarantors may have to seek reimbursement, contribution or
indemnification from Borrower or others based on any right Guarantors may
have of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnification for any
amounts paid by Guarantors under this Guaranty. Guarantors further
understand and acknowledge that in the absence of this Section 9, such
---------
potential impairment or destruction of Guarantors' rights, if any, may
entitle Guarantors to assert a defense to this Guaranty. By executing this
Guaranty, Guarantors freely, irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) waive and
relinquish that defense and agree that Guarantors will be fully liable
under this Guaranty even though the Managing Agent or the Banks may
foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security
for the Loans; (ii) agree that Guarantors will not assert that defense in
any action or proceeding which the Managing Agent or the Banks may commence
to enforce this Guaranty; and (iii) acknowledge and agree that the Managing
Agent and the Banks are relying on this waiver in making the Loans, and
that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which they are
receiving for making the Loans.
11. Revival and Reinstatement. If the Banks are required to pay,
-------------------------
return or restore to Borrower or any other person any amounts previously paid on
the Loans because of any Insolvency Proceeding of Borrower, any stop notice or
any other reason, to the extent that the source of such payment was a Cash
Equity Contribution from Guarantors pursuant to this Guaranty, the obligations
of Guarantors shall be reinstated and revived and the rights of the Managing
Agent and the Banks
-11-
shall continue with regard to such amounts, all as though they had never been
paid.
12. Information Regarding Borrower and the Property. Before signing
-----------------------------------------------
this Guaranty, Guarantors investigated the financial condition and business
operations of Borrower, the present and former condition, uses and ownership of
the Property, and such other matters as Guarantors deemed appropri ate to assure
themselves of Borrower's ability to discharge its obligations under the Loan
Documents. Guarantors assume full responsibility for that due diligence, as well
as for keeping informed of all matters which may affect Borrower's ability to
pay and perform its obligations to the Managing Agent and the Banks. The
Managing Agent and the Banks have no duty to disclose to Guarantors any
information which they may have or receive about Borrower's financial condition
or business operations, the condition or uses of the Property, or any other
circumstances bearing on Borrower's ability to perform.
13. Subordination. Any rights of Guarantors, whether now existing
-------------
or later arising, to receive payment on account of any indebtedness (including
interest) owed to them by Borrower or any subsequent owner of the Property, or
to withdraw capital invested by them in Borrower, or to receive Distributions
from Borrower, shall at all times be subordinate as to lien and time of payment
and in all other respects to the full and prior repayment to the Managing Agent
and the Banks of the Loans and the other Obligations, except to the extent that
------
such payments or Distributions are expressly contemplated by the Loan Agreement.
Guarantors shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment of any sums
hereby subordinated until the Loans and all other Obligations have been paid and
performed in full and all Commitments have been terminated and any such sums
received in violation of this Guaranty shall be received by Guarantors in trust
for the Banks.
14. Financial Information. Guarantors shall keep true and correct
---------------------
financial books and records, using generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied. Guarantors shall provide to the Banks such financial
statements and other information respecting Guarantors as is required under
Section 8.1(g) of the Loan Agreement and such other information concerning their
--------------
affairs and properties as the Managing Agent or any Bank may reasonably request.
Any confidential information of Guarantors so furnished shall be subject to the
provisions of Section 12.14 of the Loan Agreement.
-------------
-12-
15. Guarantors' Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor
------------------------------------------
represents and warrants that:
(a) All financial statements and other financial information furnished or
to be furnished to the Managing Agent or the Banks by such Guarantor are or
will be true and correct and do or will fairly represent the financial
condition of such Guarantor as of the dates and for the periods covered
thereby;
(b) All such financial statements were or will be prepared in accordance
with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, consistently applied;
(c) There has been no material adverse change in such Guarantor's
financial condition since the dates of the statements most recently
furnished to the Banks; and
(d) The performance of this Guaranty will not violate any indenture,
credit agreement or other material agreement to which such Guarantor is a
party.
16. Events of Default. The Managing Agent may declare Guarantors
-----------------
to be in default under this Guaranty upon the occurrence of any of the following
events ("Events of Default"):
(a) Either of the Guarantors fail to perform any of their obligations
under this Guaranty; or
(b) Either of the Guarantors revoke this Guaranty or dispute the validity
or coverage thereof or this Guaranty becomes ineffective for any reason; or
(c) Any representation or warranty made or given by a Guarantor in any
Loan Document proves to be false or misleading in any material respect; or
(d) Any Guarantor becomes insolvent or the subject of any case or
proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, under the Bankruptcy Code, or any
similar existing or future law of any jurisdiction, state or federal,
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors
and, in the case of an involuntary case or proceeding, the same continues
undismissed or unstayed for ninety (90) calendar days; or
(e) Any Guarantor dissolves or liquidates.
17. Authorization; No Violation. Guarantors are authorized to
---------------------------
execute, deliver and perform under this Guaranty,
-13-
which is a valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor enforceable against
each Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be
limited by Debtor Relief Laws, Gaming Laws or equitable principles relating to
the granting of specific performance and other equitable remedies as a matter of
judicial discretion. No provision or obligation of Guarantors contained in this
Guaranty violates any Requirement of Law applicable to such Guarantor. No such
provision or obligation conflicts with, or constitutes a breach or default
under, any agreement to which any Guarantor is a party.
18. Additional and Independent Obligations. Guarantors' obligations
--------------------------------------
under this Guaranty are in addition to their obligations under any other
existing or future guaranties given in connection with the Loan Agreement, and
they shall remain in full force and effect until they are expressly modified or
released in a writing signed by the Managing Agent on behalf the Requisite Banks
(or, if required by the terms of the Loan Agreement, all of the Banks).
Guarantors' obligations under this Guaranty are independent of those of Borrower
under the other Loan Documents. The Managing Agent may bring a separate action,
or commence a separate reference or arbitration proceeding against any Guarantor
without first proceeding against Borrower or any other Guarantor, any other
person or any security that the Managing Agent or the Banks may hold, and
without pursuing any other remedy. The rights under this Guaranty shall not be
exhausted by any action by the Managing Agent or any Bank until the Loans have
been paid and performed in full.
19. No Waiver; Consents; Cumulative Remedies. Each waiver by the
----------------------------------------
Managing Agent and the Banks must be in writing, and no waiver shall be
construed as a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be implied from the Managing
Agent's or any Bank's delay in exercising or failure to exercise any right or
remedy against Borrower, Guarantors or any security. Consent by the Managing
Agent or any Bank to any act or omission by Borrower or Guarantors shall not be
construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission, or as a
waiver of the requirement for their consent to be obtained in any future or
other instance. All remedies of the Managing Agent and the Banks against
Borrower and Guarantors are cumulative.
20. Release. This Guaranty shall automatically terminate upon
-------
satisfaction of the Obligations. Absent such termination, Guarantors shall not
be released from their obligations under this Guaranty except by a writing
signed by the Managing Agent with the consent of all the Banks or upon delivery
and acceptance by the Managing Agent and CSG of the Completion Certificates
specified in Section 7.14 of the Loan Agreement on or before the Completion
------------
Date.
-14-
21. Successors and Assigns; Participations. The terms of this
--------------------------------------
