GENERAL CONTINUING GUARANTY
THIS GENERAL CONTINUING GUARANTY ("Guaranty"), dated as of October 29,
1998, is executed and delivered by each of the undersigned Subsidiaries of
Fitzgeralds Gaming Corporation, a Nevada corporation (individually and
collectively, and jointly and severally, "Guarantor"), in favor of Foothill
Capital Corporation, a California corporation ("Guarantied Party"), in light of
the following:
WHEREAS, Debtor and Guarantied Party are, contemporaneously herewith,
entering into the Loan Agreement; and
WHEREAS, in order to induce Guarantied Party to extend financial
accommodations to Debtor pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and in consideration
thereof, and in consideration of any loans or other financial accommodations
heretofore or hereafter extended by Guarantied Party to Debtor, whether pursuant
to the Loan Agreement or otherwise, Guarantor has agreed to guaranty the
Guarantied Obligations.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby
agrees, in favor of Guarantied Party, as follows:
1. Definitions and Construction.
(a) Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.
The following terms, as used in this Guaranty, shall have the following
meanings:

corporation.
"Guarantied Obligations" shall mean: (a) the due and punctual
payment of the principal of, and interest (including, any and all interest
which, but for the application of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would
have accrued on such amounts) on, and premium, if any, on the Indebtedness owed

(b) the due and punctual payment of all other present or future Indebtedness
owing by Debtor to Guarantied Party.

this Guaranty.
"Guaranty" shall have the meaning set forth in the preamble to
this Guaranty.
"Indebtedness" shall mean any and all obligations, indebtedness,
or liabilities of any kind or character owed by Debtor to Guarantied Party and
arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with the Loan Agreement
or the other Loan Documents, including all such obligations, indebtedness, or
liabilities, whether for principal, interest (including any and all interest
which, but for the application of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would
have accrued on such amounts), premium, reimbursement obligations, fees, costs,
expenses (including attorneys fees), or indemnity obligations, whether
heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred, or created, whether voluntarily or
involuntarily made, incurred, or created, whether secured or unsecured (and if
secured, regardless of the nature or extent of the security), whether absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, or determined or indeterminate,

(b) Construction. Unless the context of this Guaranty clearly
requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to

"include" and "including" are not limiting, and the term "or" has the inclusive
meaning represented by the phrase "and/or." The words "hereof," "herein,"
"hereby," "hereunder," and other similar terms refer to this Guaranty as a whole
and not to any particular provision of this Guaranty. Any reference in this
Guaranty to any of the following documents includes any and all alterations,
amendments, restatements, extensions, modifications, renewals, joinders, or
supplements thereto or thereof, as applicable: the Loan Agreement; this
Guaranty; and the other Loan Documents. Neither this Guaranty nor any
uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against
Guarantied Party or Guarantor, whether under any rule of construction or
otherwise. On the contrary, this Guaranty has been reviewed by Guarantor,
Guarantied Party, and their respective counsel, and shall be construed and
interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly
accomplish the purposes and intentions of Guarantied Party and Guarantor.
-2-

2. Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guaranties to Guarantied Party, as and for its own debt, until
final and indefeasible payment thereof has been made, (a) the payment of the
Guarantied Obligations, in each case when and as the same shall become due and
payable, whether at maturity, pursuant to a mandatory prepayment requirement, by
acceleration, or otherwise; it being the intent of Guarantor that the guaranty
set forth herein shall be a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of
collection; and (b) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance,
and fulfillment by Debtor of all of the agreements, conditions, covenants, and
obligations of Debtor contained in the Loan Agreement, and under each of the
other Loan Documents.
3. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty includes Guarantied Obligations
arising under successive transactions continuing, compromising, extending,
increasing, modifying, releasing, or renewing the Guarantied Obligations,
changing the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions
thereof, or creating new or additional Guarantied Obligations after prior
Guarantied Obligations have been satisfied in whole or in part. To the maximum
extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this
Guaranty as to future Indebtedness. If such a revocation is effective
notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a)
no such revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has been
received by Guarantied Party, (b) no such revocation shall apply to any
Guarantied Obligations in existence on such date (including any subsequent
continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the interest rate,
payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no such revocation
shall apply to any Guarantied Obligations made or created after such date to the
extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Guarantied
Party in existence on the date of such revocation, (d) no payment by Guarantor,
Debtor, or from any other source, prior to the date of such revocation shall
reduce the maximum obligation of Guarantor hereunder, and (e) any payment by
Debtor or from any source other than Guarantor subsequent to the date of such
revocation shall first be applied to that portion of the Guarantied Obligations
as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied
hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation
of Guarantor hereunder.
4. Performance Under this Guaranty. In the event that Debtor fails to
make any payment of any Guarantied Obligations, on or before the due date
thereof, or if Debtor shall fail to perform, keep, observe, or fulfill any other
obligation referred to in clause (b) of Section 2 hereof in the manner provided
in the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as applicable, Guarantor
immediately shall cause such payment to be made or each of such obligations to
be performed, kept, observed, or fulfilled.
-3-
4
5. Primary Obligations. This Guaranty is a primary and original
obligation of Guarantor, is not merely the creation of a surety relationship,
and is an absolute, unconditional, and continuing guaranty of payment and
performance which shall remain in full force and effect without respect to
future changes in conditions. Guarantor agrees that it is directly, jointly and
severally with any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations, liable to
Guarantied Party, that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of
the obligations of Debtor or any other guarantor, and that a separate action may
be brought against Guarantor, whether such action is brought against Debtor or
any other guarantor or whether Debtor or any other guarantor is joined in such
action. Guarantor agrees that its liability hereunder shall be immediate and
shall not be contingent upon the exercise or enforcement by Guarantied Party of
whatever remedies it may have against Debtor or any other guarantor, or the
enforcement of any lien or realization upon any security Guarantied Party may at
any time possess. Guarantor agrees that any release which may be given by
Guarantied Party to Debtor or any other guarantor shall not release Guarantor.
Guarantor consents and agrees that Guarantied Party shall be under no obligation
to marshal any property or assets of Debtor or any other guarantor in favor of
Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of the Guarantied Obligations.
6. Waivers.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor
hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance hereof; (ii) notice of any loans or
other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan Agreement, or the
creation or existence of any Guarantied Obligations; (iii) notice of the amount
of the Guarantied Obligations, subject, however, to Guarantor's right to make
inquiry of Guarantied Party to ascertain the amount of the Guarantied
Obligations at any reasonable time; (iv) notice of any adverse change in the
financial condition of Debtor or of any other fact that might increase
Guarantor's risk hereunder; (v) notice of presentment for payment, demand,
protest, and notice thereof as to any instrument among the Loan Documents; (vi)
notice of any unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement; and (vii) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically
required to be given to Guarantor under this Guaranty or any other Loan
Documents to which Guarantor is a party) and demands to which Guarantor might
otherwise be entitled.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor
waives the right by statute or otherwise to require Guarantied Party to
institute suit against Debtor or to exhaust any rights and remedies which
Guarantied Party has or may have against Debtor. In this regard, Guarantor
agrees that it is bound to the payment of each and all Guarantied Obligations,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, as fully as if such Guarantied
Obligations were directly owing to Guarantied Party by Guarantor. Guarantor
further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense
-4-
5
(other than the defense that the Guarantied Obligations shall have been fully
and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of Debtor or by reason of the
cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Debtor in respect
thereof.
(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor
hereby waives: (i) any rights to assert against Guarantied Party any defense
(legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which Guarantor may now or
at any time hereafter have against Debtor or any other party liable to
Guarantied Party; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind
or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of
perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Guarantied
Obligations or any security therefor; (iii) any defense arising by reason of any
claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Guarantied Party
including any defense based upon an election of remedies by Guarantied Party
under the provisions of Sections 580d and 726 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure, or any similar law of California or any other jurisdiction; (iv) the
benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor's liability hereunder
or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation
of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guarantied Obligations shall
similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations
applicable to Guarantor's liability hereunder.
(d) Until such time as all of the Guarantied Obligations have been
fully, finally, and indefeasibly paid in full in cash: (i) Guarantor hereby
waives and postpones any right of subrogation Guarantor has or may have as
against Debtor with respect to the Guarantied Obligations; (ii) in addition,
Guarantor hereby waives and postpones any right to proceed against Debtor or any
other Person, now or hereafter, for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or
any other suretyship rights and claims (irrespective of whether direct or
indirect, liquidated or contingent), with respect to the Guarantied Obligations;
and (iii) in addition, Guarantor also hereby waives and postpones any right to
proceed or to seek recourse against or with respect to any property or asset of
Debtor.
(e) If any of the Guarantied Obligations at any time are secured by a
mortgage or deed of trust upon real property, Guarantied Party may elect, in its
sole discretion, upon a default with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, to
foreclose such mortgage or deed of trust judicially or nonjudicially in any
manner permitted by law, before or after enforcing this Guaranty, without
diminishing or affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor
understands that (a) by virtue of the operation of California's antideficiency
law applicable to nonjudicial foreclosures, an election by Guarantied Party
nonjudicially to foreclose such a mortgage or deed of trust probably would have
the effect of impairing or destroying rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution, or indemnity of Guarantor against Debtor or other guarantors or
sureties, and
-5-
6
(b) absent the waiver given by Guarantor herein, such an election would estop
Guarantied Party from enforcing this Guaranty against Guarantor. Understanding
the foregoing, and understanding that Guarantor is hereby relinquishing a
defense to the enforceability of this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby waives any
right to assert against Guarantied Party any defense to the enforcement of this
Guaranty, whether denominated "estoppel" or otherwise, based on or arising from
an election by Guarantied Party nonjudicially to foreclose any such mortgage or
deed of trust. Guarantor understands that the effect of the foregoing waiver may
be that Guarantor may have liability hereunder for amounts with respect to which
Guarantor may be left without rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution, or indemnity against Debtor or other guarantors or sureties.
Guarantor also agrees that the "fair market value" provisions of Section 580a of
the California Code of Civil Procedure shall have no applicability with respect
to the determination of Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty.
(f) WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER
PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM
EXTENT SUCH WAIVER IS PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL BENEFITS OR DEFENSES ARISING
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS
2799, 2808, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2838, 2839, 2845, 2847,
2848, 2849, AND 2850, CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTIONS 580a,
580b, 580c, 580d, AND 726, AND CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 14 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL
CODE.
(g) WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER
PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR WAIVES ALL RIGHTS AND DEFENSES
ARISING OUT OF AN ELECTION OF REMEDIES BY THE GUARANTEED PARTY, EVEN THOUGH THAT
ELECTION OF REMEDIES, SUCH AS A NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO SECURITY
FOR A GUARANTIED OBLIGATION, HAS DESTROYED THE GUARANTOR'S RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION
AND REIMBURSEMENT AGAINST THE DEBTOR BY THE OPERATION OF SECTION 580d OF THE
CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR OTHERWISE.
7. Releases. Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by
Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the obligations of Guarantor
hereunder, Guarantied Party may, by action or inaction, compromise or settle,
extend the period of duration or the time for the payment, or discharge the
performance of, or may refuse to, or otherwise not enforce, or may, by action or
inaction, release all or any one or more parties to, any one or more of the
terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or
may grant other indulgences to Debtor in respect thereof, or
-6-
7
may amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any one
or more of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or may, by
action or inaction, release or substitute any other guarantor, if any, of the
Guarantied Obligations, or may enforce, exchange, release, or waive, by action
or inaction, any security for the Guarantied Obligations or any other guaranty
of the Guarantied Obligations, or any portion thereof.
8. No Election. Guarantied Party shall have the right to seek recourse
against Guarantor to the fullest extent provided for herein and no election by
Guarantied Party to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any
party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Guarantied Party's
right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other
parties unless Guarantied Party has expressly waived such right in writing.
Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or
proceeding by Guarantied Party under any document or instrument evidencing the
Guarantied Obligations shall serve to diminish the liability of Guarantor under
this Guaranty except to the extent that Guarantied Party finally and
unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment by such action or
proceeding.
9. Indefeasible Payment. The Guarantied Obligations shall not be
considered indefeasibly paid for purposes of this Guaranty unless and until all
payments to Guarantied Party are no longer subject to any right on the part of
any person whomsoever, including Debtor, Debtor as a debtor in possession, or
any trustee (whether appointed under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of
Debtor's assets to invalidate or set aside such payments or to seek to recoup
the amount of such payments or any portion thereof, or to declare same to be
fraudulent or preferential. In the event that, for any reason, all or any
portion of such payments to Guarantied Party is set aside or restored, whether
voluntarily or involuntarily, after the making thereof, the obligation or part
thereof intended to be satisfied thereby shall be revived and continued in full
force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made and Guarantor
shall be liable for the full amount Guarantied Party is required to repay plus
any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys fees) paid by Guarantied
Party in connection therewith.
10. Financial Condition of Debtor. Guarantor represents and warrants to
Guarantied Party that it is currently informed of the financial condition of
Debtor and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and
which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor
further represents and warrants to Guarantied Party that it has read and
understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Guarantor hereby covenants that it will continue to keep itself
informed of Debtor's financial condition, the financial condition of other
guarantors, if any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of
nonpayment or nonperformance of the Guarantied Obligations.
-7-
8
11. Subordination. Guarantor hereby agrees that any and all present and
future indebtedness of Debtor owing to Guarantor is postponed in favor of and
subordinated to payment, in full, in cash, of the Guarantied Obligations. In
this regard, no payment of any kind whatsoever shall be made with respect to
such indebtedness until the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid
in full.
12. Payments; Application. All payments to be made hereunder by
Guarantor shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the
time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall be made
without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset. All payments made
by Guarantor hereunder shall be applied as follows: first, to all reasonable
costs and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Guarantied Party in
enforcing this Guaranty or in collecting the Guarantied Obligations; second, to
all accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, and fees owing to Guarantied
Party constituting Guarantied Obligations; and third, to the balance of the
Guarantied Obligations.
13. Attorneys Fees and Costs. Guarantor agrees to pay, on demand, all
reasonable attorneys fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses which may
be incurred by Guarantied Party in the enforcement of this Guaranty or in any
way arising out of, or consequential to the protection, assertion, or
enforcement of the Guarantied Obligations (or any security therefor),
irrespective of whether suit is brought.
14. Notices. Any notice, consent, approval, or other communication
herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and shall be given
and be deemed given in the manner set forth in Section 12 of the Loan Agreement,
the provisions of which by this reference are incorporated herein mutatis
mutandis. For the purposes hereof, the address of each party hereto shall be as
set forth in the Loan Agreement or, as to any such party, such other address as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties
hereto.
15. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy under this Guaranty, under the Loan
Agreement, or any other Loan Document is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, but each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and
every other remedy given under this Guaranty, under the Loan Agreement, or any
other Loan Document, and those provided by law. No delay or omission by
Guarantied Party to exercise any right under this Guaranty shall impair any such
right nor be construed to be a waiver thereof. No failure on the part of
Guarantied Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this
Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right under this Guaranty preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right.
-8-
9
16. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Guaranty which is
prohibited or unenforceable under applicable law shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof.
17. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Guaranty constitutes the entire
agreement between Guarantor and Guarantied Party pertaining to the subject
matter contained herein. This Guaranty may not be altered, amended, or modified,
nor may any provision hereof be waived or noncompliance therewith consented to,
except by means of a writing executed by both Guarantor and Guarantied Party.
Any such alteration, amendment, modification, waiver, or consent shall be
effective only to the extent specified therein and for the specific purpose for
which given. No course of dealing and no delay or waiver of any right or default
under this Guaranty shall be deemed a waiver of any other, similar or
dissimilar, right or default or otherwise prejudice the rights and remedies
hereunder.
18. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon
Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of Guarantied Party; provided, however, Guarantor shall
not assign this Guaranty or delegate any of its duties hereunder without
Guarantied Party's prior written consent and any unconsented to assignment shall
be absolutely void. In the event of any assignment or other transfer of rights
by Guarantied Party, the rights and benefits herein conferred upon Guarantied
Party shall automatically extend to and be vested in such assignee or other
transferee.
19. No Third Party Beneficiary. This Guaranty is solely for the benefit
of Guarantied Party and its successors and assigns and may not be relied on by
any other Person.
20. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER
THE VALIDITY OF THIS GUARANTY, ITS CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND
ENFORCEMENT, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS
ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE TRIED AND LITIGATED ONLY IN THE STATE AND
FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, OR
-9-
10
AT THE SOLE OPTION OF GUARANTIED PARTY, IN ANY OTHER COURT IN WHICH GUARANTIED
PARTY SHALL INITIATE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PROCEEDINGS AND WHICH HAS SUBJECT MATTER
JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER IN CONTROVERSY. EACH OF GUARANTOR AND GUARANTIED
PARTY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EACH MAY
HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE
EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 20.
GUARANTOR AND GUARANTIED PARTY HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT
CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR
STATUTORY CLAIMS. GUARANTOR AND GUARANTIED PARTY REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS
REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL
RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A
COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE
COURT.
21. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Guaranty may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be
an original for all purposes, but all such counterparts together shall
constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of this Guaranty by telefacsimile shall be equally effective as delivery of an
executed original counterpart of this Guaranty. Any party delivering an executed
counterpart of this Guaranty by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original
executed counterpart but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart
shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this
Guaranty. This Guaranty shall become effective as to each Guarantor upon the
execution and delivery of a counterpart hereof by such Guarantor (whether or not
a counterpart hereof shall have been executed and delivered by any other
Guarantor).
22. Agreement to be Bound by Loan Agreement. By its execution and
delivery of this Guaranty or any joinder hereto, any Guarantor that is not a
party to the Loan Agreement or any joinder thereto nevertheless shall be deemed
to have agreed to be bound by each provision in the Loan Agreement relating to
the Guarantors or Obligors or their assets with the same force and effect as
though such Guarantor were party to the Loan Agreement or any joinder thereto,
mutatis mutandis.
