Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that, commencing on the date hereof, he
or she shall not, directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, by
means of a transfer of control of a Permitted Transferee, voluntarily or
involuntarily, sell, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any
of his or her Shares or any interest therein, except as expressly permitted by
this Article IV. A Stockholder selling or otherwise transferring or desiring to
sell or transfer his or her Shares in accordance with this Article IV is
sometimes referred to herein as the "Selling Stockholder."

-------------------
(regarding the maintenance of Subchapter S status), a Stockholder may sell,
assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of his or her Shares to a
Permitted Transferee, provided that prior to such transfer the Permitted
Transferee executes an appropriate supplement to this Agreement agreeing to be
bound by the terms and provisions thereof as if such Permitted Transferee were
an original party hereto.
Section 4.3 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Except for sales or other transfers
----------------------
permitted pursuant to Section 4.2, a Selling Stockholder shall comply with the
following procedures:
(a) Actions Prior to Solicitation of Offers. Prior to soliciting
---------------------------------------
offers for purchase of all or any portion of his or her Shares, the
Selling Stockholder shall first give written notice to the Corporation
and the remaining Stockholders of the intention to solicit such offers,
specifying the number of Shares proposed to be offered for sale (the
"Offered Shares").
(i) Within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice, the
Corporation and the Selling Stockholder shall commence to
negotiate in good faith to determine the fair market value of
the Offered Shares and other terms and conditions for the sale
of all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares to the
Corporation. If within twenty (20) days of the commencement of
such negotiations, the Corporation and the Selling Stockholder
are unable to agree on the terms of purchase of all of the
Offered Shares, then the Selling Stockholder shall repeat the
same procedure with the remaining Stockholders who desire to
acquire the Offered Shares.
(ii) If within twenty (20) days of the commencement of the second
level of negotiations, the parties to such negotiations are
unable to agree on the
9
terms of purchase of all of the Offered Shares, then, subject to
the remaining provisions of this Article IV, the Selling
Stockholder may proceed to solicit offers from third parties for
the Offered Shares. Any purchase of the Offered Shares by the
Stockholders as provided in this Section shall be in the
proportion of the respective ownership of Shares among those
Stockholders purchasing the Offered Shares unless otherwise
agreed by such purchasing Stockholders.
(b) Treatment of Offer. Within five (5) days after receipt of an
------------------
Offer which the Selling Stockholder intends to accept, the Selling
Stockholder shall provide the Corporation and the remaining Stockholders
with a copy of the Offer. The following procedure shall then apply:
(i) Within thirty (30) days of the Corporation's receipt of the
copy of the Offer, the Corporation shall have the option (without
obligation) to purchase, if at all, all, but not less than all, of
Shares subject to the Offer (the "Third Party Offer Shares") at the
price and other terms disclosed in the Offer.
(ii) If the Corporation fails to purchase the Third Party Offer
Shares within the thirty (30)-day period, then the remaining
Stockholders shall have the option for a period of ten (10) days from
the end of the thirty (30)-day period to purchase the Third Party
Offer Shares at the price and other terms disclosed in the Offer. No
purchase under this Section 4.3(b)(ii) shall be final and effective
unless all the Shares purchasable pursuant to the Offer are purchased
pursuant to these provisions. Any purchase of Shares by any
Stockholders pursuant to these provisions shall be in the proportion
of the respective ownership of Shares among those Stockholders
purchasing such Shares unless otherwise agreed by such purchasing
Stockholders.
(iii) In lieu of exercising any option under the provisions of
Section 4.3(b)(ii), each remaining Stockholder shall have the option
exercisable within ten (10) days after the ten (10) day period
referred to in Section 4.3(b)(ii), to tender for sale to the offeror
of the Offer (each such tendering Stockholder hereafter a "Tendering
Stockholder"), on the same terms disclosed in the Offer, such number
of the Tendering Stockholder's Shares (including a fraction of a
single Share of the Tendering Stockholder's Shares if the Offer is for
a single Share) representing, as a percentage of the Third Party Offer
Shares, the same percentage of the Tendering Stockholder's ownership
interest in the Corporation as of the date of the Offer, thereby
reducing by the same number (or fraction thereof) the number of Third
Party Offer Shares which may be sold by the Selling Stockholder to the
offeror under the Offer. The Selling Stockholder agrees to take any
action necessary to accomplish the application of the provisions of
the preceding sentence, and any Offer which fails to allow Tendering
Stockholders to
10
so apply the said provisions shall be ineffective and
may not be consummated as herein otherwise permitted.
(iv) If the Corporation and the remaining Stockholders fail to
exercise the options set forth in Sections 4.3(b)(i) and (ii) (and
after the expiration of the 10 day period granted to Tendering
Stockholders under Section 4.3(b)(iii)) the Selling Stockholder, and
to the extent options under Section 4.3(b)(iii) have been exercised,
the Tendering Stockholders, may proceed to consummate the sale of the
Third Party Offer Shares to the offeror under the Offer strictly in
accordance with the terms and conditions disclosed in the Offer,
provided that (A) the Selling and Tendering Stockholders have complied
with the provisions of Section 4.3(c), (B) such sale is consummated
within eighty five (85) days from the date on which the Corporation
received a copy of the Offer as herein provided; provided, however,
that if in the opinion of legal counsel to the Corporation any
transfer of Shares to which this Section applies requires the approval
of any regulatory authority, the aforesaid eighty five (85)-day period
shall be extended by the number of days required to obtain such
approval, and (C) the offeror, prior to the consummation of a sale,
has executed a supplement to this Stockholders Agreement in which it
agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Stockholders
Agreement as if it were an original party thereto. If, however,
either the purchase price or other material terms disclosed in the
Offer are decreased or adjusted in a manner which is materially
favorable to the person proposing to purchase Shares under the Offer,
such change shall be deemed to be a new Offer, which shall again be
subject to compliance by the Selling Stockholder with all the
provisions of Section 4.3(b).
(c) Detrimental Sales. In the event that the Corporation concludes,
-----------------
for good and valid business reasons, that any proposed sale of Shares
pursuant to an Offer or otherwise to a specific purchaser would be
detrimental to the business of the Corporation, the Corporation shall
notify the Selling Stockholder of such fact in a written notice delivered
to the Selling Stockholder within thirty (30) days from being notified in
writing of the identity of the proposed purchaser, specifying with
particularity the specific reasons for its conclusion. Such notice may
also identify any other potential purchasers which the Corporation
concludes would be objectionable for similar reasons, it being understood
that any such identification is not inclusive. The Selling Stockholder
shall, in good faith, give due consideration to such concerns of the
Corporation but shall not, except as provided in the next sentence, be
prohibited from consummating such sale so long as the Selling Stockholder,
in good faith, does not believe that the proposed sale would be detrimental
to the business of the Corporation. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each of the Stockholders hereby expressly acknowledges and
agrees that any of the following transfers, whether direct or indirect,
shall be conclusively presumed detrimental to the Corporation and shall be
prohibited: (i) any transfer to any person having any beneficial or legal
ownership interest in any Competitor of the Corporation,
11
(ii) any transfer to a person which would cause the Corporation to lose its
status as a Subchapter S corporation under the Code or (iii) any transfer
to a person who, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Corporation, could
jeopardize any of the Corporation's gaming licenses.
(d) Notices. The exercise of any option granted under this Section
-------
4.3 shall be by delivery of written notice of the exercise within the time
period specified in the provisions to which the option relates.
Section 4.4 REPURCHASE EVENTS. Upon the occurrence of any Repurchase
-----------------
Event with respect to a Stockholder:
(a) Non-Death Events. In all Repurchase Events other than the death
----------------
of a Stockholder, the Corporation and the other Stockholders shall have the
right, without obligation, to purchase all the Shares of the Stockholder
which rights may be exercised in accordance with the procedures set forth
in Section 4.3(b) as if the Repurchase Event was an Offer to purchase all
the Shares of the Stockholder at the Restricted Stock Transfer Purchase
Price (determined in accordance with Section 4.5 below), except that all
time periods shall commence from the date on which the occurrence of the
applicable Repurchase Event has been communicated in writing to the
Corporation.
(b) Death Event. In the case of the death of a Stockholder, the
-----------
Corporation shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the
Shares held by such Stockholder, his estate, legal representative and any
Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder (the "Corporation Call Option")
and, in the event of the exercise of the Corporation Call Option, each such
person shall sell such Shares to the Corporation at the Restricted Stock
Transfer Purchase Price determined in accordance with Section 4.5 below and
payable as set forth in Section 4.6(a)(i) below. In order to exercise the
Corporation Call Option, the Corporation must provide written notice of
such exercise to the deceased Stockholder's estate, legal representative
and/or any applicable Permitted Transferee within six (6) months after the
deceased Stockholder's death. Notwithstanding the provisions of the two
immediately preceding sentences, with respect to those Shares of the
deceased Stockholder which would, by reason of such Stockholder's death,
be, directly or indirectly transferred to or held for the benefit of such
Stockholder's spouse and/or children, the provisions of the two immediately
preceding sentences shall not apply and instead each of such spouse and/or
children (or the estate or other legal representative of the deceased
Stockholder acting on their behalf or other person holding such Shares for
their benefit) shall have the right to continue to own such Shares.

and the Selling Stockholder within thirty (30) days from the date of the

appoint a qualified independent appraiser of their respective choice within
five (5) days after the end of the 30-day period referred to in Section
4.5(a), and both appraisers shall have thirty (30) days from the date of
their appointment to agree upon the fair market value of the Shares. For
all purposes of this Section 4.5, any two appraisers shall be deemed to
"agree" or to have "agreed" if their individual determinations do not vary
from each other by more than five percent (5%). However, the fair market
value shall then be the average of the two determinations.
(c) Subsequent Fair Market Value Appraisals. If the two appraisers
---------------------------------------
cannot agree upon the fair market value within thirty (30) days after
their appointment, they shall, within eight (8) days after the end of this
30-day period, appoint a third qualified independent appraiser of their
collective choice. The three appraisers shall then determine the fair
market value of the Shares within twenty (20) days of the appointment of
the third appraiser. The fair market value agreed to by two of the three
appraisers (as the term "agree" and "agreed" is defined in Section 4.5(b))
shall be the purchase price for purposes of Section 4.5. However, the fair
market value shall then be the average of the two determinations. If two
of the three appraisers cannot agree on the fair market value, then the
procedures set forth in Section 4.5(b) and (c) shall be repeated until the
fair market value has been determined as herein provided.
(d) General Valuation Requirements. Any party appointing an
------------------------------
appraiser pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall direct the appraiser to
strictly comply with (i) the time periods set forth in this Section 4.5,
(ii) the requirement for appointment of a third appraiser, and (iii) the
valuation standards herein prescribed, and to immediately notify the
selling and purchasing parties in writing of any determination made
hereunder. The fees of the first two appraisers appointed hereunder shall
be payable by the appointing party and the fees of the third appraiser
shall be divided equally between the selling and purchasing parties.
Section 4.6 CLOSING AND PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.

then twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock
Transfer Purchase Price shall be paid within 60 days after
its determination and the balance shall be paid in equal
semi-annual installments over three years commencing on the
first anniversary of the applicable Repurchase Event and
continuing on each anniversary thereafter until payment in

five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock Transfer
Purchase Price shall be paid within 60 days after its
determination and the balance shall be paid in equal annual
installments over five years commencing on the first

continuing on each anniversary thereafter until payment in
full.
(C) The amount of such purchase price outstanding during the
aforesaid three year or five year periods shall bear simple
interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum which
interest shall be paid annually on the date of the
applicable principal payments. The Corporation shall pledge
the Shares being sold by the applicable Selling
Stockholders as collateral to secure the prompt payment of
all amounts due to such Selling Stockholder.
(D) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, if at the time
any payment under this Section 4.6 is due, the Corporation
is prohibited under the laws of the State of Delaware or
any other competent jurisdiction from making the payment,
the Corporation shall have a grace period for making the
payment for the length of the prohibition period, provided
that, in addition to accrual of interest on the principal
portion of such payment as herein provided, interest shall
accrue on the interest portion of each payment so deferred
at the rate specified in Section 4.6(a)(i)(C) from the due
date thereof without regard to the grace period through the
payment thereof.
(iii) The purchase price for Shares purchased pursuant to Section
4.3(a) shall be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions
agreed upon by the Selling Stockholders and the Corporation or
remaining Stockholders (as applicable) on the applicable Restricted
Stock Transfer Closing Date.
14
(iv) The purchase price for Shares purchased pursuant to Section
4.3(b) shall be paid in accordance with the payment terms stated in
the applicable Offer on the applicable Restricted Stock Transfer
Closing Date.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,

Stockholder's Shares (by any applicable proceeding) the Corporation
may, at its option, deposit payments due to the Selling Stockholder
under this Section 4.6 into an escrow account or take such other
actions as it deems necessary or reasonable pending the resolution of
the applicable dispute.
(b) Delivery of Stock Certificate On the Restricted Stock Transfer
-----------------------------
Closing Date for a purchase of Shares pursuant to this Article IV, the
Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the purchasing party or parties a
certificate or certificates representing the purchased Shares, duly
endorsed in blank or accompanied by a duly executed assignment separate
from certificate. Any sale of Shares pursuant to this Article IV shall be
made free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and restrictions (except
those created by this Stockholders Agreement), and the Selling Stockholder
shall furnish to the purchasing party or parties such additional evidence
and executed documents as may be reasonably necessary to establish the
validity of and accomplish the transfer.

--------------------
Stockholders Agreement shall cease to apply to any events which occur after the
occurrence of any of the following events:
(a) Bankruptcy and Dissolution. The bankruptcy or dissolution of the
--------------------------
Corporation;
(b) Single Remaining Stockholder. A single Stockholder becoming the

Stockholders who approve such instrument by a vote of seventy-five percent
(75%) of the outstanding Shares.
The termination of the rights and obligations of the parties under this Section
4.7 for any reason shall not affect any right or remedy existing hereunder prior
to the effective date of termination.
Section 4.8 RELEASE FROM OBLIGATIONS. If a Stockholder disposes of his
------------------------
or her Shares in accordance with this Article IV, such Stockholder shall be
relieved of all obligations under this Article IV (except for any obligations
under this Article IV arising prior to or as a consequence of such disposition)
and the provisions of this Article IV shall have no further force and effect as
to that Stockholder. In addition, if any Stockholder disposes of his or her
Shares in accordance with
15
this Article IV, the Corporation and the remaining Stockholders shall use their
good faith efforts to obtain the release of such selling Stockholder from such
Stockholder's liability under any guaranty or other obligation incurred by such
selling Stockholder as a result of his or her ownership of Shares; provided,
however, that such releases shall only be obtained if they result in no economic
cost to the Corporation or remaining Stockholders.
Section 4.9 CORPORATION RECORDS.
-------------------
(a) Effectiveness of Transfers. No Shares of any Stockholder shall
--------------------------
be transferred upon the books of the Corporation, nor shall any sale or
transfer or any other disposition thereof be effective, unless and until

complied with.
(b) Lending of Shares. Each Stockholder shall surrender the
-----------------
certificate of stock evidencing his or her Shares to the Secretary of the
Corporation, for the purpose of inscribing thereon the same legend as set

Section 4.10 SPECIAL PROVISION FOR PROPOSED SALE TO CERTAIN COMPETITORS.
----------------------------------------------------------
In addition to all other limitations imposed by this Article IV, in the event
that any Stockholder obtains any right to acquire or acquires, either directly
or indirectly, any interest in the ownership value, voting rights or beneficial
interests of any Competitor doing business in Will, Xxxx, DuPage, Grundy,
Kankakee or Lake Counties in Illinois (a "Competition Equity Right"), then such
Stockholder (the "Competitor Stockholder") shall, within ten (10) days after
receipt of such Competition Equity Right provide the other Stockholders with a
written copy of the terms of acquisition of such Competition Equity Right. Each
other Stockholder shall have the right, exercisable within fifteen (15) days
after their receipt of a copy of the Competition Equity Right, to participate
with the Competitor Stockholder in the Competition Equity Right by acquiring
that percentage of the aggregate capital stock or other beneficial or equitable
interests represented by the Competition Equity Right which is equal to their
percentage ownership interest of the Corporation on the date of the issuance of
the Competition Equity Right, thereby reducing by the same amount the percentage
of the aggregate capital stock or other beneficial or equitable interests of the
Competition Equity Right available to the Competitor Stockholder. The
Competitor Stockholder agrees to take any actions necessary to accomplish the
application of this Section 4.10 and no Stockholder shall exercise any rights
granted to him or her under a Competition Equity Right if such Stockholder fails
to provide for the application of this Section 4.10.

--------
breach of any term, provision, or condition of this Stockholders Agreement may
cause irreparable damage which is difficult to ascertain and that the award of
damages may not be adequate relief to the party aggrieved. The parties
therefore agree that, in addition to all other remedies available in the
16
event of a breach of this Stockholders Agreement, the party aggrieved shall have
the right to injunctive or other equitable relief.

Section 5.1 MAKING OF ELECTION. The Corporation and each of the
------------------
Stockholders have elected to be taxed as a small business corporation under
Subchapter S of the Code, and further agree that such election may be revoked
only upon the vote of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Shares.
Each Stockholder shall (i) execute all forms, consents and other documents
necessary in order to keep such election effective under the applicable
provisions of the Code and (ii) thereafter take such actions (or refrain from
taking such actions) as are necessary to preserve the Corporation's status as a
Subchapter S corporation under the Code.
Section 5.2 DISTRIBUTIONS FOR TAX PAYMENTS. So long as the S corporation
------------------------------
election is in effect, the Corporation shall make pro rata distributions to the
Stockholders at least equal to the estimated federal and state income taxes
payable by the Stockholders with respect to any tax items of the Corporation
which are reportable on the Stockholders' individual federal and state income
tax returns. This estimated tax liability, which shall be computed by the
accountant who regularly prepares the Corporation's tax returns, shall be
computed on the basis of the highest marginal rate applicable to individual
Stockholders on such tax items for the tax year in question, plus the marginal
Illinois state personal income tax rate (regardless of the rate of state income
tax, if any, applicable to individual Stockholders in the states in which they
reside). Unless prevented from making any distributions under applicable state
law, or the Stockholders unanimously otherwise agree, the total amount of the
minimum mandatory dividend required by this Section shall be declared and paid
no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the close of the
Corporation's taxable year, provided further that payments on account of such
distributions shall be made during the taxable year to the extent that said
accountant determines that such distributions are reasonably necessary in order
for Stockholders to comply with any estimated tax payments requirements
applicable to them.
Section 5.3 POST TERMINATION DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Subchapter S election
------------------------------
is revoked or terminated, the Corporation shall, except to the extent the
Stockholders unanimously agree to the election authorized by Section 1371(e)(2)
of the Code, or unless prevented from doing so by applicable state law, declare
and pay pro rata cash distributions during the post-termination transition
period equal to the Corporation's accumulated adjustment account; provided
however, that at the election of the Corporation any amount so distributable
shall contemporaneously with such distribution be re-loaned by each distributee
Stockholder to the Corporation. Such loan
17
shall bear interest at the Prime Rate as publicly announced by the First
National Bank of Chicago from time to time, and shall be repaid in sixty (60)
equal monthly installments of principal, plus accrued interest, with each
installment being due and payable on the first day of each month following the
