license shall inure to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of
Secured Party and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary

permitted by the Note Purchase Agreement, create or suffer to exist any Lien
upon or with respect to any of the Collateral to secure the indebtedness or
other obligations of any Person.

consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged SFHI Collateral or any part thereof
for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the other
Basic Documents; provided, however, that Grantor shall not exercise or refrain

that, in Secured Party's judgment, such action would have an adverse effect on
the value of the Pledged SFHI Collateral or any part thereof; and provided,

further, that Grantor shall give Secured Party at least five Business Days'
-------
prior written notice of the manner in which it intends to exercise, or the

(b) All principal, interest and other payments paid in cash or cash
equivalents in respect of the Pledged SFHI Collateral shall be paid to Secured
Party under and in accordance with the Cash Collateral Agreement. All
principal, interest and other payments paid or payable other than in cash or
cash equivalents in respect of, and instruments and other property received,
receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any
Pledged SFHI Collateral shall be, and shall forthwith be delivered to Secured
Party to hold as Pledged SFHI Collateral. All principal, interest and other
payments paid in respect of the Pledged SFHI Collateral shall, if received by
Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party, be segregated
from the other property or funds of Grantor and be forthwith delivered to
Secured Party as Pledged SFHI Collateral in the same form as so received (with
all necessary indorsements).
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, upon written notice from Secured Party to Grantor, all rights of
Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would
otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 13(a) shall cease, and all
such rights shall thereupon become vested in Secured Party who shall thereupon
have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights.
(d) In order to permit Secured Party to exercise the voting and other
consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 7(c)
and to receive all payments and other distributions which it may be entitled to
receive under Section 7(b), (i) Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or
cause to be executed and delivered) to Secured Party all such proxies, orders
and other instruments as Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request
and (ii) without limiting the effect of the immediately preceding clause (i),
Grantor hereby grants to Secured Party an irrevocable proxy to vote the Pledged
SFHI Collateral and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and
remedies to which a holder of the Pledged SFHI Collateral would be entitled
(including, without limitation, giving or withholding written consents, calling
special meetings and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective,
automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of
any Pledged SFHI Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any
other Person (including the issuer of the Pledged SFHI Collateral or any officer
or agent thereof), upon
12
the occurrence of an Event of Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon
the payment in full of the Secured Obligations.
SECTION 14. SECURED PARTY APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. Grantor hereby
----------------------------------------
irrevocably appoints Secured Party as Grantor's attorney-in-fact, with full
authority in the place and stead of Grantor and in the name of Grantor, Secured
Party or otherwise, from time to time in Secured Party's discretion to take any
action and to execute any instrument that Secured Party may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including without
limitation:
(a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by Grantor
or paid to Secured Party pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and the Deed of
Trust;
(b) to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive
and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in
respect of any of the Collateral;
(c) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments,
documents and chattel paper in connection with clauses (a) and (b) above;
(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings
(including, without limitation, any proceeding before any Gaming Authority) that
Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the
Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Secured Party with respect to
any of the Collateral;
(e) to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Liens permitted
under this Agreement or the Note Purchase Agreement) levied or placed upon or
threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the
amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by Secured Party in its
sole discretion, any such payments made by Secured Party to become obligations
of Grantor to Secured Party, due and payable immediately without demand;
(f) to sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills
of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments,
verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other documents
relating to the Collateral; and
(g) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to
or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though
Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at
Secured Party's option and Grantor's expense, at any time or from time to time,
all acts and things that Secured Party deems necessary to protect, preserve or
realize upon the Collateral and Secured Party's security interest therein in
order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as
Grantor might do.
13
SECTION 15. SECURED PARTY MAY PERFORM. If Grantor fails to perform
-------------------------
any agreement contained herein, Secured Party may itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Secured Party incurred in
connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor under Section 18.
SECTION 16. STANDARD OF CARE. The powers conferred on Secured Party
----------------
hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not
impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of
reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the
accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Secured Party shall
have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to
preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any
Collateral, it being understood that Secured Party shall have no responsibility
for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions,
exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral,
whether or not Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters,
(b) taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the
standard of care set forth above to maintain possession of the Collateral) to
preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Collateral, (c) taking
any necessary steps to collect or realize upon the Secured Obligations or any
guarantee therefor, or any part thereof, or any of the Collateral, or (d)
initiating any action to protect the Collateral against the possibility of a
decline in market value. Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession
if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which
Secured Party accords its own property.
SECTION 17. REMEDIES.
--------
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if Secured Party
elects, upon any Event of Default, to sell real property and any of the
Collateral together under the Deed of Trust and applicable law, then the
terms of the Deed of Trust shall, with respect to such sale and Collateral,
control and supersede any terms in this Agreement with respect to such sale
and Collateral; provided that Secured Party's election to exercise remedies
--------
under the Deed of Trust shall have no effect on the terms contained in this
Agreement with respect to any Collateral as to which Secured Party has not
so elected.
(b) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all
other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it,
all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction (the "CODE")
(whether or not the Code applies to the affected Collateral), and also may
(i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its
expense and upon request of Secured Party forthwith, assemble all or part of
the Collateral as directed by Secured Party and make it available to Secured
Party at a place to be designated by Secured Party that is reasonably
convenient to both parties, (ii) enter onto the property where any
14
Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial
process, (iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process,
repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for
disposition in any manner to the extent Secured Party deems appropriate,
(iv) take possession of Grantor's premises or place custodians in exclusive
control thereof, remain on such premises and use the same and any of
Grantor's equipment for the purpose of completing any work in process,
taking any actions described in the preceding clause, (iii) collect any
Secured Obligation, and (v) without notice except as specified below, sell
the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or
private sale, at any of Secured Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on
credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or
prices and upon such other terms as Secured Party may deem commercially
reasonable. Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the
Collateral at any such sale and Secured Party shall be entitled, for the
purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price
for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to
use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the
purchase price for any Collateral payable by Secured Party at such sale.
Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free
from any claim or right on the part of Grantor, and Grantor hereby waives
(to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay
and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have
under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Grantor
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least
ten days' notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the
time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable
notification. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of
Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party
may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at
the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further
notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Grantor
hereby waives any claims against Secured Party arising by reason of the fact
that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private
sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public
sale, even if Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not
offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale
or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the
Secured Obligations, Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees
of any attorneys employed by Secured Party to collect such deficiency.
(c) Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended (the
"SECURITIES ACT"), and applicable state securities laws, Secured Party may
be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral
conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Collateral
under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit
purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the
Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Grantor acknowledges that any such
15
private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those
obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including,
without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration
statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances,
Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner and that Secured Party shall have no
obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of
any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer
thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration
under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if
such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it.
SECTION 18. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. Except as expressly provided
-----------------------
elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by Secured Party in respect
of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of
the Collateral may, in the discretion of Secured Party, be held by Secured Party
as Collateral for, and/or then, or at any other time thereafter, applied in full
or in part by Secured Party against, the Secured Obligations in the following
order of priority:
FIRST: To the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale,
collection or other realization, including costs and expenses of Secured
Party and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and
advances made or incurred by Secured Party in connection therewith, and all
amounts for which Secured Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder and
all advances made by Secured Party hereunder for the account of Grantor, and
to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Secured Party
in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, all in
accordance with Section 19;
SECOND: To the payment of all other Secured Obligations (for the
ratable benefit of the holders thereof) in such order as Secured Party shall
elect as provided in Section 2.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement; and
THIRD: To the payment to or upon the order of Grantor, or to
whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such
proceeds.
SECTION 19. INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES.
----------------------
(a) Grantor agrees to indemnify Secured Party from and against any and
all claims, losses and liabilities in any way relating to, growing out of or
resulting from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby
(including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except to the
extent such claims, losses or liabilities result solely from Secured Party's
gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction.
16
(b) Grantor shall pay to Secured Party upon demand the amount of any
and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its
counsel and of any experts and agents, that Secured Party may reasonably incur
in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody,
preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of
any of the rights of Secured Party hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Grantor to
perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
SECTION 20. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF NOTES. This
-----------------------------------------------
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and
shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full
of the Secured Obligations, (b) be binding upon Grantor, its successors and
assigns, and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Secured Party
hereunder, to the benefit of Secured Party and its successors, transferees and
assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c) any Holder
may assign or otherwise transfer any Notes held by it to any other Person in
accordance with the Note Purchase Agreement, and such other Person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to
Secured Party herein or otherwise. 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 Grantor. Upon any such termination
Secured Party will, at Grantor's expense, execute and deliver to Grantor such
documents as Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
SECTION 21. SECURED PARTY AS COLLATERAL AGENT.
---------------------------------
(a) Secured Party has been appointed to act as Secured Party hereunder
by Holders. Secured Party shall be obligated, and shall have the right
hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including,
without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in
accordance with this Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement.
(b) Secured Party shall at all times be the same Person that is
Collateral Agent under the Note Purchase Agreement. Written notice of
resignation by Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase
Agreement shall also constitute notice of resignation as Secured Party under
this Agreement; removal of Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection 8.7 of the
Note Purchase Agreement shall also constitute removal as Secured Party under
this Agreement; and appointment of a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to
subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall also constitute appointment
of a successor Secured Party under this Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Collateral Agent under subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase
Agreement by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent 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)
transfer to such successor Secured Party all sums, securities and other items of
Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents
necessary or appropriate in connection with the
17
performance of the duties of the successor Secured Party under this Agreement,
and (ii) 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. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent's resignation or
removal hereunder as Secured Party, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure
to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this
Agreement while it was Secured Party hereunder.
SECTION 22. AMENDMENTS; ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision
---------------
of this Agreement, or consent to any departure by Grantor herefrom, shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Secured
Party, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
SECTION 23. NOTICES. Any notice or other communication herein
-------
required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally
served, telexed or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail or courier
service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by
courier service, upon receipt of telefacsimile or telex prior to 5:00 p.m. on a
Business Day, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States
mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided that notices to
--------
Secured Party shall only be effective upon receipt. For the purposes hereof,
the address of each party hereto shall be as set forth under such party's name
on the signature pages hereof or, as to either party, such other address as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice delivered to the other
party hereto.
SECTION 24. FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. 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.
SECTION 25. SEVERABILITY. 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.
SECTION 26. HEADINGS. 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.
18
SECTION 27. GOVERNING LAW; TERMS. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED
--------------------
BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEVADA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, EXCEPT TO
THE EXTENT THAT THE CODE PROVIDES THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE
SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR
COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF
NEVADA.
SECTION 28. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS. ALL
----------------------------------------------
JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST GRANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR NEVADA, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS
AGREEMENT GRANTOR ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES,
GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID
COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. Grantor 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 Grantor at its address provided in
Section 23, such service being hereby acknowledged by Grantor to be sufficient
for personal jurisdiction in any action against Grantor 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.
SECTION 29. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. GRANTOR 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
without limitation contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all
other common law and statutory claims. Grantor and Secured Party each
acknowledge that this waiver is a material inducement for Grantor and Secured
Party to enter into a business relationship, that Grantor 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. Grantor 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.
19
SECTION 30. COUNTERPARTS. 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.
