V. Dividends and Voting Rights Prior to Default. Until an Event of Default (as
defined in the Indenture) shall have occurred and be continuing and Agent shall

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 Noteholders, pursuant to this Stock Pledge Agreement) which are
permitted by 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
4
to impair the Collateral or result in any violation of any provision of the
Indenture.
VI. Default and Remedies.
A. Event of Default. The occurrence (whether as a result of acts or omissions by
ROC or any other Person) of an Event of Default under the Indenture (subject to
such cure rights as may be expressly set forth in such Indenture), 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 Indenture, the
Intercreditor Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder and subject to the
receipt of all necessary gaming approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities,
Agent may, upon notice to Shareholder, (i) notify ROC to pay all dividends on
Shareholder's Stock to Agent, for the benefit of the Noteholders, receive and
collect all such dividends and make application thereof to the Obligations in
the order set forth in Section 6.10 of the Indenture, and (ii) register all of
Shareholder's Stock in the name of Agent or its nominee, for the benefit of the
Noteholders, 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 ROC 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 Indenture, 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 ROC, 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 and
ROC 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 again
be registered in the name of Shareholder and ROC shall again make all payments
and distributions with respect to Shareholder's Stock to Shareholder.
C. Additional Remedies. Subject to the terms of the Indenture, the Intercreditor
Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default and subject to the receipt of all necessary
gaming approvals from the Nevada 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
5
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, ROC or any other Person (except notice of time
and place of sale and any other notice required by law and any notice referred
to below or in the Indenture) 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. Agent 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. Agent 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 Indenture, 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 Agent arising out of the exercise by it of
any rights hereunder except as may arise solely from Agent's negligence or
willful misconduct. 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 business days before such sale or other disposition.
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 104.9207 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 Section 7.01 of
the Indenture.
VIII. Nevada Gaming Law. This agreement will be governed by the Gaming Control
Act. Without limiting thegenerality of the foregoing, the parties agree that:
A. the pledge of the Stock provided for herein will be subject to the approval
of the Nevada Gaming Authorities (as defined herein);
6
B. Notwithstanding approval by the Nevada Gaming Authorities pursuant to
paragraph (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. pursuant to Regulation 8.050 of the Nevada Gaming Commission, 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, except that such consideration may be placed in escrow pending
the necessary approvals; and
C. the Agent, through an agent or representative, shall retain all evidence of
ownership in the Stock or any distribution of additional securities in respect
of, in addition to, in substitution of, or in exchange for, such Stock or any
part thereof, in the State of Nevada. Such agent or representative shall be
located in and authorized to do business in the State of Nevada, and designated
to the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, and shall make all certificates
evidencing stock available for inspection by agents of the Nevada Gaming
Authorities immediately upon request during normal business hours.
IX. Termination. This Stock Pledge Agreement shall terminate upon the
satisfaction of all Obligations or upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance,
and 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. Subject to the receipt of all necessary gaming
approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities, Agent's authority hereunder shall
include, without limitation, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, the authority to endorse and negotiate, for Agent'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 in this Stock
Pledge Agreement. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable by Shareholder.
