Collateral, at the time Shareholder acquires rights therein, will have) any

any time convertible into capital stock of RGM or RBH, or (2) have or at any
time would have voting rights with respect to RGM or RBH; (i) upon transfer to
Agent of all Collateral consisting of securities and continuous maintenance of

in writing by Agent, to have priority over Agent's Liens; (b) (with respect to
RBH only, subject to the receipt of all necessary gaming approvals from the

or Agent's interest in the Collateral; (e) to keep the Collateral free of all

V. Dividends and Voting Rights Prior to Default. Until an Event of Default (as
defined in the Loan Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing and Agent
shall have given notice to Shareholder of Agent's intent to exercise its rights
pursuant to Section VI.B. below, Shareholder shall be permitted (a) to receive
all dividends paid on Shareholder's Stock (other than dividends paid in
additional Stock unless such additional Stock is pledged to Agent, for the
benefit of the Lender Group, pursuant to this Stock Pledge Agreement) which are
permitted by both the Loan Documents and the Indenture, and (b) to exercise all
voting and corporate rights with respect to the Stock; provided, however, that
no vote shall be cast or corporate right exercised or other action taken which
would be reasonably likely to impair the Collateral or result in any violation
of any provision of the Loan Documents.
VI. Default and Remedies.
A. Event of Default. The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement (subject to such cure rights as may be expressly set forth in such
Loan Agreement), whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it
shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation
of any administrative or governmental body, shall constitute an "Event of
Default" hereunder.
B. Dividends and Voting Rights. Subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default hereunder (and, with respect to RBH only, subject to the
receipt of all necessary gaming approvals from the Colorado Gaming Authorities,)
Agent may, upon notice to Shareholder, (i) notify RGM and RBH to pay all
dividends on Shareholder's Stock to Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group,
receive and collect all such dividends and make application thereof to the
Obligations in the manner and order set forth in Section 2.4 of the Loan
Agreement, and (ii) register all of Shareholder's Stock in the name of Agent or
its nominee, for the benefit of the Lender Group, and Agent or its nominee may
thereafter exercise (A) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to
Shareholder's Stock at any meeting of shareholders of RGM and RBH or otherwise
and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other
rights, privileges or options pertaining to Shareholder's Stock as if it were
the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, after Agent has
commenced to exercise remedies (or such remedies are deemed commenced) under the
Loan Documents, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of
Shareholder's Stock upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of RGM
or RBH, or upon the exercise by Shareholder or Agent of any right, privilege or
option pertaining to Shareholder's Stock, and in connection therewith, the right
to deposit and deliver any and all of Shareholder's Stock with any committee,
depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms
and conditions as it may determine), all without liability except to account for
property actually received by it, but Agent shall have no duty to Shareholder to
exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for
any failure to do so or delay in so doing. Promptly after the waiver or cure of
the Event of Default giving rise to Agent's election under this Section VI.B.,
Agent shall notify Shareholder, RGM and RBH of such waiver or cure and for so
long as no subsequent continuing Event of Default exists, Shareholder shall have
all rights as a shareholder it had prior to the occurrence of such Event of
Default, the Shareholder's Stock shall (at the sole expense of Borrower) again
5
be registered in the name of Shareholder, and RGM and RBH shall again make all
payments and distributions with respect to Shareholder's Stock to Shareholder
(subject to the express limitations of this Stock Pledge Agreement and the other
Loan Documents).
C. Additional Remedies. Subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement and the other
Collateral Documents, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, (and, with respect to RBH only, subject to the receipt of all
necessary gaming approvals from the Colorado Gaming Authorities,) Agent may
exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted in this Stock
Pledge Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing
or relating to the Obligations, any and all rights and remedies at law,
including, without limitation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under
the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may, without
demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or
notice of any kind to or upon Shareholder, RGM, RBH or any other Person (except
notice of time and place of sale and any other notice required by law and any
notice expressly required herein or in any other Loan Document), forthwith
collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part
thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give option or options to purchase
or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or
contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or
private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker's
board or office of Agent or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may
deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem commercially reasonable, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.
The Lender Group shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and,
to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase
the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of
redemption in Shareholder, which right or equity is hereby waived and released.
The Lender Group shall apply any proceeds from time to time held by it and the
net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred in respect thereof or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any
of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of
Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and
disbursements of counsel to Agent, to the payment in whole or in part of the
Obligations, in such order as specified by the Loan Agreement, and only after
such application and after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by
any provision of law, need Agent account for the surplus, if any, to
Shareholder. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Shareholder waives all
claims, damages and demands it may acquire against any Indemnified Person (as
such term is defined in Section 11.3 of the Loan Agreement) arising out of the
exercise by it of any rights hereunder except, with respect to any Indemnified
Person, to the extent such claims, damages and demands are finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. If any notice of a proposed sale
or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall
be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before the earliest
time of sale or disposition set forth in the notice; no notice needs to be given
prior to the sale or disposition of any portion of the Collateral that is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market.
6
VII. Limitation on Duties Regarding Collateral. Agent's sole duty with respect
to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its
possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with
it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar securities and property for
its own account and as would be dealt by a prudent person in the reasonable
administration of its affairs. Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize
upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of
Shareholder or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained
herein shall be deemed a waiver or release of the provisions of Sections 11.2
and 16 of the Loan Agreement.
VIII. Colorado Gaming Law. The following provisions of this Section VIII
apply solely with respect to RBH: This agreement will be governed by the
Colorado Limited Gaming Act of 1991, as amended, with respect to the Stock of
RBH. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties agree that:
A. approval of the pledge of the Stock of RBH provided for herein is within the
discretion of the Colorado Gaming Authorities (as defined herein);
B. Notwithstanding any approval by the Colorado Gaming Authorities pursuant to
Section VIII(A), other approvals of the Gaming Authorities may, and in some
cases will, be required before certain transactions relating to this Agreement
may occur, including but not limited to the following:
1. any re-registration or action similar to re-registration of
the Stock (or any distribution in respect of, in addition to,
in substitution of, or in exchange for, the Stock or any part
thereof);
2. any foreclosure, sale, transfer or other disposition of the
Stock; and
3. the payment or receipt of any money or other thing of value
constituting any part of the consideration for the transfer or
acquisition of the Stock.
IX. Termination. This Stock Pledge Agreement shall terminate upon the payment in
full in cash of all Obligations and the irrevocable termination of all
commitments of the Lender Group to extend credit to Borrower under the Loan
Documents, and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall promptly
thereafter deliver the Stock certificates held by it hereunder to Shareholder
and, at Shareholder's expense, execute and deliver to Shareholder such documents
as Shareholder shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
X. Power of Attorney. Shareholder hereby appoints and constitutes Agent as
Shareholder's attorney-in-fact for purposes of, at any time while an Event of
Default exists, (a) collecting any Collateral, (b) conveying any item of
Collateral to any purchaser thereof, and (c) making any payments or taking any
acts under Section VI hereof. Agent's authority hereunder shall include, without
limitation, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default (and, with respect to RBH only, subject to the receipt of all necessary
gaming approvals from the Colorado Gaming Authorities): the authority to endorse
7
and negotiate, for the Lender Group's own account, any checks or instruments in
the name of Agent; to execute or receipt for any document, to transfer title to
any item of Collateral; and to take any other actions necessary or incident to
the powers granted to Agent or the Lender Group in this Stock Pledge Agreement.
This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable by
Shareholder.
XI. Miscellaneous.
A. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, demands, and
requests that either party is required or elects to give to the other shall be
in writing and shall be governed by the provisions contained in the Loan
Agreement.
B. Nonwaiver. No failure or delay on Agent's or the Lender Group's part
in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any
other right nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude
any other further exercise thereof or of any other right.
C. Amendments and Waivers. This Stock Pledge Agreement may not be amended
or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written instruments
signed by the party or parties against which enforcement thereof is sought.
Each waiver or consent under any provision hereof shall be effective only in the
specific instances for the purpose for which given.
D. Assignment. This Stock Pledge Agreement shall be binding upon inure to the
benefit of Agent, the Lender Group, and Shareholder and their respective
successors and assigns; provided, however, that Shareholder may not assign its
rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of
Agent or the Lender Group. To the extent permitted in the Loan Agreement (and,
solely with respect to RBH, subject to the receipt of all necessary gaming
approvals from the Colorado Gaming Authorities), Agent may assign or otherwise
transfer all or any part of its interest under this Stock Pledge Agreement, upon
notice to Shareholder. Agent may disclose this Stock Pledge Agreement and any
financial or other information relating to Shareholder to any potential assignee
or participant.
E. Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of Agent and the
Lender Group under this Stock Pledge Agreement shall be in addition to all
rights, powers and remedies given to Agent and the Lender Group by virtue of the
Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, any applicable governmental rule or
regulation or any other agreement, all of which rights, powers, and remedies
shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without
impairing Agent's Lien in the Collateral. Shareholder waives any right to
require Agent or the Lender Group to proceed against any Person or to exhaust
any Collateral or to pursue any remedy in Agent's or the Lender Group's power.
F. Governing Law. This Stock Pledge Agreement, the rights and obligations of
the parties hereto, and any claims or disputes relating thereto, shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
CALIFORNIA, except to the extent that the perfection and enforcement of the
8
security interests hereunder in respect of any particular collateral are
governed by the laws of another jurisdiction.
