(b) (i) In the event that Station shall sell or issue Equity Interests of Station to any Person, each Non-voting Stockholder shall have the preemptive right to purchase or subscribe to such Equity Interests on the same terms and conditions as such interests are being offered and sold, such subscription being conditioned upon the actual sale of such Equity Interests; provided, however, that if the Equity Interests to be sold or issued by Station are Voting Stock, then FCP VoteCo, and not the Non-voting Stockholders, shall have the preemptive right to purchase or subscribe to such Voting Stock on the same terms and conditions as such

Voting Stock is being offered and sold or issued; provided, further, that such preemptive rights shall not extend to Equity Interests if such interests are to be issued by Station (1) to effect a merger, (2) pursuant to employee stock option plans, employee stock purchase plans, or other employee benefit plans established exclusively for compensatory purposes, which plans are approved by the Board of Directors, (3) under a plan of reorganization approved in a proceeding under any applicable act of Congress relating to the reorganization of corporations, (4) upon conversion of or exercise of convertible securities, warrants or options, (5) pursuant to a public offering registered under the Securities Act, (6) in connection with any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization of Station or (7) in connection with bona fide corporate partnering transactions or other bona fide strategic transactions on terms approved by a Supermajority of the Board of Directors the primary purpose of which are not to raise capital for Station. A Non-voting Stockholder’s pro rata share, for purposes of this Section 2.5, is the ratio of the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Non-voting Stockholder immediately prior to such issuance bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock held by all Non-voting Stockholders immediately prior to such issuance.

(ii) Written notice specifying the contemplated date the new Equity Interests are to be sold or issued and the offering terms thereof shall be delivered by Station to each of the Non-voting Stockholders or FCP VoteCo, as applicable, no later than thirty (30) days or earlier than sixty (60) days prior to such contemplated sale or issue date, and each such Non-voting Stockholder or FCP VoteCo, as applicable, shall have until ten (10) days prior to the contemplated sale or issue date specified in such notice to inform Station of its intentions as to the exercise of the preemptive right provided herein. If no written reply is received by Station prior to the tenth (10th) day before the contemplated sale date specified in such notice, Station may treat the preemptive right of such non-responding holder to have been waived for that, but only for that, transaction. If the offering of Equity Interests is not fully subscribed by the Non-voting Stockholders or FCP VoteCo, as applicable, the remaining unsubscribed Equity Interests shall be reoffered by Station to the Station Stockholders that purchase their full allotment upon the terms set forth in this paragraph except that such Station Stockholders must exercise their purchase rights within seven (7) days of receipt of such reoffer. Any Equity Interests that are not purchased by the Non-voting Stockholders or FCP VoteCo pursuant to this Section 2.5 may be sold by Station to such purchasers as are approved by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE 3. TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

Section 3.1 General.

(a) No Equityholder may sell, assign, pledge or in any manner dispose of or create or suffer the creation of a security interest in or any encumbrance on all or a portion of its Shares of Station or Units of FCP or Xxxxxxxx Partners, as applicable (the commission of any such act being referred to as a “Transfer,” any person who effects a Transfer being referred to as a “Transferor” and any person to whom a Transfer is effected being referred to as a “Transferee”), except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 3, the FCP Operating Agreement and the Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement. No Transfer of Shares or Units, as applicable, shall be effective until such time as all requirements of this Article 3 in respect thereof have been satisfied and, if consents, approvals or waivers are required by the Board of

Directors, all of same shall have been confirmed in writing by the Board of Directors. No Transfer of Shares or Units, as applicable, shall be effective without the receipt of all Gaming Licenses required under applicable Gaming Laws. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of Shares or Units, as applicable, not made in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member may Transfer all or any portion of its (i) Class A Units other than (A) pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or (B) pursuant to Sections 3.5.1, 3.5.2 and 3.5.3 or (ii) Class B Units or Class C Units other than (x) pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or (y) pursuant to Sections 3.5.2 and 3.5.3, in any case subject to the terms and conditions of the FCP Operating Agreement and the Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement; provided, that no Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Class A Units prior to the fourth (4th) anniversary of the date hereof, unless such Transfer is approved by the consent of a Supermajority of the Board of Directors of Station, other than (i) a Permitted Transfer or (ii) in the case of the Named Executive Members, upon the death or Disability of both of the Named Executive Officers.

Section 3.2 Further Requirements with respect to Transfers of Shares. In addition to the other requirements of Section 3.1, and unless waived in whole or in part by the Board of Directors (to the extent waivable under applicable law), no Transfer of Shares of Station, including a Permitted Transfer, may be made unless the following conditions are met:

(b) The Transferor shall have delivered to Station a fully executed copy of all documents relating to the Transfer, executed by both the Transferor and the Transferee, and the agreement of the Transferee in writing and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to the Board of Directors to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(c) The Board of Directors shall have been reasonably satisfied, including, at its option, having received an opinion of counsel to Station reasonably acceptable to the Board of Directors, that:

(i) the Transfer will not violate the Securities Act or any other applicable Federal, state or non-United States securities laws, rules or regulations;

(ii) the Transfer will not cause some or all of the assets of Station to be “plan assets” or the investment activity of Station to constitute “prohibited transactions” under ERISA or the Code;

(iii) the Transferee shall have obtained all necessary Gaming Licenses; and

(iv) the Transfer will not cause Station to be an investment company required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Any waivers from the Board of Directors under this Section 3.2 shall be given or denied in the good faith and reasonable discretion of a Supermajority of the Board of Directors. Station shall reflect each Transfer and admission authorized under this Article 3 (including the terms and conditions imposed thereon by the Board of Directors) by preparing an amendment to this Agreement dated as of the date of such Transfer. The form and content of all documentation delivered to the Board of Directors under this Section 3.2 shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, which approval may be granted or withheld in the good faith and reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors.

Section 3.3 Indirect Transfers. If any Equityholder is an entity that was formed primarily for the purpose of acquiring Shares or Units, as applicable, or that has no substantial assets other than Shares or Units, such Equityholder agrees that (i) its Equity Interests (and other Equity Interests in any similar entities controlling such entity) will note the restrictions contained in this Article 3 and (ii) none of such Equity Interests may be transferred to any Person other than in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Article 3 as if such Equity Interests were Shares or Units. No Equityholder shall Transfer any Shares or Units if such Transfer would violate the intention of this Section 3.3.

Section 3.4 Transfer Provisions with respect to Station

3.4.1 Right of First Offer.

(a) Prior to making any Transfer (other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer) of Shares (the “Subject Shares”), a Non-voting Stockholder (an “Offering Stockholder”) shall deliver to Station and each other Non-voting Stockholder owning more than ten percent (10%) of the total outstanding number of Shares of Station at the time of such Transfer (the “Share Offerees”) a letter (the “Share Offer Letter”) signed by such Offering Stockholder setting forth:

(i) the prospective purchase price per Share in cash for the Subject Shares;

(ii) such Offering Stockholder’s offer, irrevocable by its terms for thirty (30) Business Days following the delivery of the Share Offer Letter (such period, the “Share Offer Period”), to sell to the Share Offerees, all but not less than all the Subject Shares, for a purchase price per Share equal to the purchase price per Share in cash set forth in such Share Offer Letter (the “Share Offer”); and

(iii) closing arrangements and, to the extent such date is determinable, a closing date (which shall be subject to the attainment of approvals from the applicable Gaming Authorities) for any purchase and sale that may be effected by the Share Offerees pursuant to this Section 3.4.1.

During the Share Offer Period, the Share Offerees shall have the right to enter into definitive agreements to purchase all but not less than all the Subject Shares for the same price per Share set forth in the Share Offer.

If more than one Share Offeree elects to purchase the Subject Shares and the aggregate number of Subject Shares elected to be purchased by all Share Offerees exceeds the actual number of Subject Shares, the Subject Shares shall be allocated among such Share

Offerees pro rata according to the number of non-voting Shares of Station owned by each such Share Offeree relative to the aggregate number of non-voting Shares of Station owned by all such Share Offerees, up to the number of Subject Shares elected to be purchased by such Share Offeree.

If, upon the expiration of the Share Offer Period, the Share Offerees elect to not exercise the right of first offer with respect to all of the Subject Shares, the Offering Stockholder may sell all, but not less than all, of such Subject Shares to a third party for not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price per Share contained in such Share Offer; provided, however, that any such third party must execute a joinder agreement to this agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to a Supermajority of the Board of Directors pursuant to which such third party agrees to be a “Station Stockholder” for all purposes hereunder. Prior to consummating any such sale, the Offering Stockholder shall, upon request from the Share Offerees or Station, provide the requesting party with reasonable supporting documentation with respect to the price per Share of any such sale so as to demonstrate such Offering Stockholder’s compliance with the provisions of the preceding sentence. Station shall provide such third party reasonable access to its books and records during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable advance notice at the sole cost and expense of the inspecting third party. If such sale has not been completed within two hundred seventy (270) calendar days of the closing date proposed in the Share Offer Letter, the Subject Shares covered by such Share Offer may not thereafter be sold by such Offering Stockholder unless the procedures set forth in this Section 3.4.1 shall have again been complied with.

(b) Sale of Subject Shares. If one or more of the Share Offerees accept in writing the Share Offer to purchase all but not less than all of the Subject Shares, the closing of the purchase and sale pursuant to such acceptance shall take place at the offices of Station on the date set forth in the Share Offer Letter, or at such other place or on such other date as the applicable parties may agree or such later date as may be necessary to obtain any required Gaming Licenses and other regulatory approvals. In connection with such purchase and sale, each party shall execute and deliver all agreements, certificates and other documentation reasonably requested by, and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, the other party to effect the purchase of the Subject Shares hereunder, and the Offering Stockholder shall execute and deliver certificates representing the Subject Shares duly endorsed for transfer.

3.4.2 Tag Along Rights. Subject to compliance with Sections 3.1 and 3.4.1, at least thirty (30) days prior to the sale of any non-voting Shares of Station by one or more Station Stockholders (collectively, the “Selling Stockholder”) in one or more series of related transactions to one or more related Persons (collectively, the “Share Buyer”) other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or a sale to Offerees pursuant to Section 3.4.1 (each, a “Share Tag Sale”), such Selling Stockholder shall provide to each other Non-voting Stockholder (each, a “Share Tag Seller”) a notice (a “Share Tag Along Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the terms of such sale, the aggregate number of non-voting Shares such Share Buyer wishes to purchase (the “Tag Along Shares”) and identifying the name and address of the Share Buyer. Upon the written request of any Share Tag Seller made prior to the later of (x) the fifteenth (15th) day after the day the Share Tag Along Notice is received by such Share Tag Seller and (y) five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Share Offer Period in respect of such Share Tag Sale under Section 3.4.1 above, subject to applicable Gaming Laws and the receipt of all

required Gaming Licenses, the Selling Stockholder proposing to make the sale shall cause the Share Buyer to purchase from such Share Tag Seller the number of non-voting Shares held by such Share Tag Seller equal to the lesser of (i) the number of non-voting Shares requested to be included in the Share Tag Sale by such Share Tag Seller and (ii) a number determined by multiplying (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of non-voting Shares held by such Tag Seller, and the denominator of which is the total number of non-voting Shares held by all of the Share Tag Sellers and the Selling Stockholder by (y) the number of Tag Along Shares to be sold in such Share Tag Sale. Such purchase shall be made on the same date and on terms and conditions at least as favorable to such Share Tag Seller as the terms and conditions contained in the Share Tag Along Notice delivered in connection with such proposed transaction. Each Share Tag Seller shall take all actions which the Selling Stockholder deems reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate such transaction, including (i) entering into agreements with third parties which may include representations, indemnities, holdbacks and escrows, provided, that such agreements are on terms substantially identical or more favorable to such Share Tag Seller than those agreed to by the Selling Stockholder (except that, in the case of representations, warranties, holdbacks and escrows pertaining specifically to the Selling Stockholder, each Share Tag Seller shall make comparable representations, warranties, holdbacks and escrows, in each case to the extent applicable and pertaining specifically to itself and only itself); provided, further, that all representations, warranties, conditions, holdbacks and escrows shall be of each the Selling Stockholder and each Share Tag Seller severally and not jointly and that any liability to the Selling Stockholder and the Share Tag Seller thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis determined according to the number of Shares sold by each of them, and (ii) obtaining all consents and approvals reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate such transaction. The Share Tag Sellers and the Selling Stockholder shall each pay its pro rata share (based upon the portion of the gross proceeds each Share Tag Seller and the Selling Stockholder are entitled to receive in such Share Tag Sale relative to the gross proceeds of the Share Tag Sale) of any reasonable transaction costs associated with the sale other than the legal expenses and selling commissions of the other participants in the Share Tag Sale.

3.4.3 Drag Along Rights.

(a) If a Supermajority of the Board of Directors of Station approves a sale of all of the Shares to a Person (the “Share Purchaser”) other than another Station Stockholder or an Affiliate of a Station Stockholder (a “Share Drag Sale”), subject to applicable Gaming Laws, the Station Stockholders selling such interests (the “Dragging Stockholders”) may, at their option, require each other Station Stockholder (the “Dragged Stockholders”) to sell all of the Shares held by such Dragged Stockholders.

(b) Subject to the receipt of all required Gaming Licenses, the Dragging Stockholders shall give each Dragged Stockholder not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the proposed sale, a notice summarizing the economic terms of such Share Drag Sale, including the purchase price, closing date and the identity of the Share Purchaser. The Dragged Stockholder sale shall be made on the same date, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as provided with respect to the sale of Shares by such Dragging Stockholder to such Share Purchaser. In connection with any Share Drag Sale, each Dragged Stockholder shall take such actions as may be reasonably required by the Dragging Stockholders and shall otherwise

cooperate in good faith with the Dragging Stockholders. At the closing of a Share Drag Sale, each Dragged Stockholder shall deliver to such Share Purchaser all documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by such Share Purchaser in connection with such Share Drag Sale, against payment of the appropriate purchase price; provided that the Dragged Stockholders shall not be required to make any representations and warranties except those relating to title of their Shares, due authorization of the Share Drag Sale and the absence of conflicts, which such representations and warranties shall be made severally and not jointly and that the liability of the Station Stockholders thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis determined according to the aggregate proceeds received by each of them in the Share Drag Sale and no Dragged Stockholder shall be required to agree to, or be deemed to have agreed to, any non-financial terms, covenants and agreements such as non-competition and non-solicitation agreements without its express written consent. In the event that any such Share Drag Sale is structured as a merger, consolidation or similar business combination, each Station Stockholder agrees to vote in favor of the transaction and take all action to waive any dissent, appraisal or other similar rights; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each Dragged Stockholder may be liable for breaches of representations and warranties about Station or the Subsidiaries and their operations so long as such liability is not in excess of such Dragged Stockholder’s pro rata percentage interest in the aggregate proceeds of the Share Drag Sale.

(c) Upon consummation of a Share Drag Sale, if a Dragged Stockholder has not delivered any documents and instruments as contemplated by the preceding paragraph (b), such Dragged Stockholder shall no longer be considered a holder of Shares, and such Dragged Stockholder’s sole rights with respect to such Shares shall be to receive the consideration receivable in connection with such Share Drag Sale upon delivery of the appropriate documents and instruments.

Section 3.5 Transfer Provisions with respect to FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners

3.5.1 Right of First Offer.

(a) Prior to making any Transfer (other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer) of Class A Units in FCP or Xxxxxxxx Partners (the “Subject Units”), a Member (an “Offering Member”) shall deliver to FCP, Xxxxxxxx Partners and each Class A Member owning more than ten percent (10%) of the total outstanding number of Class A Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners at the time of such Transfer (the “Unit Offerees”) a letter (the “Unit Offer Letter”) signed by such Offering Member setting forth:

(i) the prospective purchase price per Class A Unit in cash for the Subject Units;

(ii) such Offering Member’s offer, irrevocable by its terms for thirty (30) Business Days following the delivery of the Unit Offer Letter (such period, the “Unit Offer Period”), to sell to the Unit Offerees, all but not less than all the Subject Units, for a purchase price per Class A Unit equal to the purchase price per Class A Unit in cash set forth in such Unit Offer Letter (the “Unit Offer”); and

During the Unit Offer Period, the Unit Offerees shall have the right to enter into definitive agreements to purchase all but not less than all the Subject Units for the same price per Class A Unit set forth in the Unit Offer.

If more than one Unit Offeree elects to purchase the Subject Units and the aggregate number of Subject Units elected to be purchased by all Unit Offerees exceeds the actual number of Subject Units, the Subject Units shall be allocated among such Unit Offerees pro rata according to the number of Class A Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners owned by each such Unit Offeree relative to the aggregate number of Class A Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners owned by all such Unit Offerees, up to the number of Subject Units elected to be purchased by such Unit Offeree.

If, upon the expiration of the Unit Offer Period, the Unit Offerees elect to not exercise the right of first offer with respect to all of the Subject Units, the Offering Member may sell all, but not less than all, of such Subject Units to a third party for not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price per Class A Unit contained in such Unit Offer. Prior to consummating any such sale, the Offering Member shall, upon request from the Unit Offerees, FCP or Xxxxxxxx Partners, provide the requesting party with reasonable supporting documentation with respect to the price per Class A Unit of any such sale so as to demonstrate such Offering Member’s compliance with the provisions of the preceding sentence. FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners shall provide such third party reasonable access to its books and records during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable advance notice at the sole cost and expense of the inspecting third party. If such sale has not been completed within two hundred seventy (270) calendar days of the closing date proposed in the Unit Offer Letter, the Subject Units covered by such Unit Offer may not thereafter be sold by such Offering Member unless the procedures set forth in this Section 3.5.1 shall have again been complied with.

(b) Sale of Subject Units. If one or more of the Unit Offerees accept in writing the Unit Offer to purchase all but not less than all of the Subject Units, the closing of the purchase and sale pursuant to such acceptance shall take place at the offices of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners on the date set forth in the Unit Offer Letter, or at such other place or on such other date as the applicable parties may agree or such later date as may be necessary to obtain any required Gaming Licenses and other regulatory approvals. In connection with such purchase and sale, each party shall execute and deliver all agreements, certificates and other documentation reasonably requested by, and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, the other party to effect the purchase of the Subject Units hereunder, and the Offering Member shall execute and deliver certificates representing the Subject Units duly endorsed for transfer.

3.5.2 Tag Along Rights. Subject to compliance with Sections 3.1 and 3.5.1, at least thirty (30) days prior to the sale of any Class A Units of FCP and/or Xxxxxxxx Partners by one or more Members (collectively, the “Selling Member”) in one or more series of related transactions to one or more related Persons (collectively, the “Unit Buyer”) other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or a sale to Unit Offerees pursuant to Section 3.5.1 (each, a

“Unit Tag Sale”), such Selling Member shall provide to each other Member of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners (if and only if the equity value of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners is such that a sale of all assets of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners for the aggregate equity value of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners implied by the purchase price of the Class A Units being sold by the Member (and if such equity value is not mathematically determinable assuming the highest possible implied equity value) and the distribution of such amount pursuant to the terms of the FCP Operating Agreement and the Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement would have resulted in the Class B Members or Class C Members of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners receiving distributions) (each, a “Unit Tag Seller”) a notice (a “Unit Tag Along Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the terms of such sale, the aggregate number of Units such Unit Buyer wishes to purchase (the “Tag Along Units”) and identifying the name and address of the Unit Buyer. Upon the written request of any Unit Tag Seller made prior to the later of (x) the fifteenth (15th) day after the day the Unit Tag Along Notice is received by such Unit Tag Seller and (y) five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Unit Offer Period in respect of such Unit Tag Sale under Section 3.5.1 above, subject to applicable Gaming Laws and the receipt of all required Gaming Licenses, the Selling Member proposing to make the sale shall cause the Unit Buyer to purchase from such Unit Tag Seller the number of Units held by such Unit Tag Seller equal to the lesser of (i) the number of Units requested to be included in the Unit Tag Sale by such Unit Tag Seller and (ii) a number determined by multiplying (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners held by such Unit Tag Seller, and the denominator of which is the total number of Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners held by all of the Unit Tag Sellers and the Selling Member by (y) the number of Tag Along Units to be sold in such Unit Tag Sale. Such purchase shall be made on the same date, at a price equal to a proportionate share of the aggregate purchase price paid in such Unit Tag Sale (which proportionate share shall be based upon the amount that would be distributable to such Unit Tag Seller relative to the amount that would be distributable to all other Selling Members had an amount equal to the equity value of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners implied by such purchase price been distributed pursuant to Section 5.1 of the FCP Operating Agreement and the Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement (as determined by a Supermajority of the Board of Managers of FCP)) and on terms and conditions at least as favorable to such Unit Tag Seller as the terms and conditions contained in the Unit Tag Along Notice delivered in connection with such proposed transaction (and if a unique implied equity value is not mathematically determinable, using the highest possible implied purchase price). Each Unit Tag Seller shall take all actions which the Selling Member deems reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate such transaction, including (i) entering into agreements with third parties which may include representations, indemnities, holdbacks and escrows, provided, that such agreements are on terms substantially identical or more favorable to such Unit Tag Seller than those agreed to by the Selling Member (except that, in the case of representations, warranties, holdbacks and escrows pertaining specifically to the Selling Member, each Unit Tag Seller shall make comparable representations, warranties, holdbacks and escrows, in each case to the extent applicable and pertaining specifically to itself and only itself); provided, further, that all representations, warranties, conditions, holdbacks and escrows shall be of each the Selling Member and each Unit Tag Seller severally and not jointly and that any liability to the Selling Member and the Unit Tag Seller thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis determined according to the number of Units sold by each of them, and (ii) obtaining all consents and approvals reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate such transaction. The Unit Tag Sellers and the Selling Member shall each pay its pro rata share

(based upon the portion of the gross proceeds each Unit Tag Seller and the Selling Member are entitled to receive in such Unit Tag Sale relative to the gross proceeds of the Unit Tag Sale) of any reasonable transaction costs associated with the sale other than the legal expenses and selling commissions of the other participants in the Unit Tag Sale.

3.5.3 Drag Along Rights.

(a) If a Supermajority of the Board of Managers of FCP approves a sale of all of the Units of FCP and/or Xxxxxxxx Partners (such company, the “Drag Subject Company”) to a Person (the “Unit Purchaser”) other than another Member or an Affiliate of a Member (a “Unit Drag Sale”), subject to applicable Gaming Laws, the Members selling such interests (the “Dragging Members”) may, at their option, require each other Member of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners (the “Dragged Members”) to sell all of the Units of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners held by such Dragged Members.

(b) Subject to the receipt of all required Gaming Licenses, the Dragging Members shall give each Dragged Member not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the proposed sale, a notice summarizing the economic terms of such Drag Sale, including the purchase price, closing date and the identity of the Unit Purchaser. The Dragged Member sale shall be made on the same date, at a price equal to a proportionate share of the aggregate purchase price paid in such Unit Drag Sale (which proportionate share shall be based upon the amount that would be distributable to such Dragged Member relative to the amount that would be distributable to all other Dragging and Dragged Members had an amount equal to the equity value of FCP and Xxxxxxxx Partners implied by such purchase price been distributed pursuant to Section 5.1 of the FCP Operating Agreement and the Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement (as determined by a Supermajority of the Board of Managers of FCP)) and on terms and conditions at least as favorable to such Dragged Member as the terms and conditions as the sale by the Dragging Members (and if a unique implied purchase price is not mathematically determinable, using the highest possible implied purchase price). In connection with any Unit Drag Sale, each Dragged Member shall take such actions as may be reasonably required by the Dragging Members and shall otherwise cooperate in good faith with the Dragging Members. At the closing of a Unit Drag Sale, each Dragged Member shall deliver to such Unit Purchaser all documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by such Unit Purchaser in connection with such Unit Drag Sale, against payment of the appropriate purchase price; provided that the Dragged Members shall not be required to make any representations and warranties except those relating to title of their Units, due authorization of the Unit Drag Sale and the absence of conflicts, which such representations and warranties shall be made severally and not jointly and that the liability of the Members thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis determined according to the aggregate proceeds received by each of them in the Unit Drag Sale and no Dragged Member shall be required to agree to, or be deemed to have agreed to, any non-financial terms, covenants and agreements such as non-competition and non-solicitation agreements without its express written consent. In the event that any such Unit Drag Sale is structured as a merger, consolidation or similar business combination, each Member agrees to vote in favor of the transaction and take all action to waive any dissent, appraisal or other similar rights; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each Dragged Member may be liable for breaches of representations and warranties about FCP, Xxxxxxxx

Partners or the Subsidiaries and their operations so long as such liability is not in excess of such Dragged Member’s pro rata percentage interest in the aggregate proceeds of the Unit Drag Sale.

(c) Upon consummation of a Unit Drag Sale, if a Dragged Member has not delivered any documents and instruments as contemplated by the preceding paragraph (b), such Dragged Member shall no longer be considered a holder of Units, and such Dragged Member’s sole rights with respect to such Units shall be to receive the consideration receivable in connection with such Unit Drag Sale upon delivery of the appropriate documents and instruments.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.

The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect on the date of commencement of the arbitration (or subsequent, equivalent JAMS rules). The decision in writing of any two arbitrators, when delivered to the parties, shall be final and binding on the parties. Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrators and the parties shall maintain the confidentiality of the arbitration and dispute resolution proceedings and shall have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard that confidentiality, unless the parties agree otherwise. The arbitrators shall, in the award, allocate all of the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators and the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party, against the party who did not prevail.

Section 6.11 Gaming Suitability.

(a) For so long as Station remains subject to regulation under any Gaming Laws, ownership of Station shall be held subject to the applicable provisions of any applicable Gaming Laws.

Bylaws conflict with this Agreement, this Agreement shall control and all Equityholders shall take all action reasonably necessary to amend the Bylaws so that they shall not conflict, including voting in favor of such amendments thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to conform the Bylaws to the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Equityholders further agree that to the extent that there is any conflict among the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Articles of Incorporation of Station, the Bylaws and the FCP Voteco Operating Agreement, the terms and provisions of the FCP Voteco Operating Agreement shall prevail.

FORM OF

SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

As of

(plus such amounts as may be added to

principal as provided in Section 1.2 below)

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay the aggregate principal sum of Dollars ($ ), plus interest as provided below, to the order of (the “Secured Party”), or the Secured Party’s assigns, as applicable as described in Section 1.1 below; Terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Equityholders Agreement of Station Casinos, Inc., Xxxxxxxx Colony Partners LLC and Xxxxxxxx Partners LLC, dated as of , 200 (the “Agreement”).

1. Payment.

1.1 Principal. Subject to the provisions of Section 1.4 hereof, the entire principal amount of this Secured Promissory Note (this “Note”), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be paid on the earlier to occur of (i) a sale of FCP, Xxxxxxxx Partners or Station, (ii) one year after an initial underwritten public offering of Station or (iii) a bankruptcy of FCP, Xxxxxxxx Partners or Station, and may be paid in cash or in stock (such stock to be valued at the time of such sale or initial public offering, as applicable), at the Borrower’s option (the “Maturity Date”).

1.2 Interest. Until the second anniversary of the date hereof, interest shall accrue with respect to the unpaid principal amount of this Note at a rate of LIBOR plus one and a half percent (1.5%) per annum and shall be paid in cash quarterly on , , and , commencing on (each a “Quarterly Payment Date”). If the last day of the calendar quarter is a Saturday, Sunday or business holiday under the laws of the State of Nevada, the payment that would otherwise be due thereon instead shall be due on the next-succeeding business day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing the interest due in respect of said payment. From and after the second anniversary of the date of this agreement until the Maturity Date, interest shall accrue with respect to the unpaid principal amount of this Note at a rate of LIBOR plus four percent (4%) and the principal amount of this Note shall be automatically increased by the amount of the accrued interest on each Quarterly Payment Date. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and a 90-day calendar quarter and on the actual number of days elapsed in any period of less than one calendar quarter. All accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

1.3 Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay, in whole or in part, the principal outstanding and/or the interest accrued hereunder. The Borrower shall be required to use the after-tax cash proceeds realized from the sale of Class A Units or Class B Units to prepay the outstanding principal and/or interest accrued interest hereunder. All prepayments shall first be applied to pay accrued but unpaid interest and then to repay outstanding principal.

1.4 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below), the Secured Party may declare the entire principal amount of this Note plus accrued but unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable and take any other action allowed by law; provided, however, that such amounts shall become immediately due and payable without any action of the Secured Party in the event of an Event of Default described under clause (a) of the definition of “Event of Default.” The occurrence of any of the following shall be deemed to be an event of default (an “Event of Default”) hereunder: (a) bankruptcy, attachment, receivership or similar liquidation event of the Borrower; (b) the breach in any material respect of any covenant of the Borrower in this Note; (c) any representation or warranty of the Borrower in this Note is false or misleading in any material respect when made; or (d) the Borrower sells, transfers or disposes of all or any portion of the Pledged Interests (as defined below) other than the grant of the security interest in the Pledged Interests pursuant to this Note.

1.5 Manner of Payment. Payments hereunder shall be made by the Borrower to the Secured Party for the benefit of the Secured Party, at the option of the Secured Party, by wire transfer to the account, or by check at the address, in either case provided to the Borrower by the Secured Party in writing, in immediately available lawful money of the United States of America without any deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any set off or counterclaim.

2. Security Grant. As security for the prompt and complete payment and performance of all of its obligations under this Note, subject to the receipt of all approvals required under the Gaming Laws, the Borrower does hereby grant to the Secured Party a continuing lien on and security interest in all of the right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under the Pledged Interests, wherever located. The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver promptly to the Secured Party any and all documents or instruments reasonably deemed by the Secured Party to be necessary to perfect the security interest granted hereby. “Pledged Interests” means all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in [ ( )] of the Borrower’s Class A Units of Xxxxxxxx Partners, together with all certificates (if any) evidencing the same; provided, that such amount of Class A Units shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.1(d)(ii) of Xxxxxxxx Partners Operating Agreement.

3. Remedies; Rights upon Default.

(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Note, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to Gaming Laws, the Secured Party may exercise all of its rights and remedies as a secured party under the Code. The Secured Party 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 for the benefit of the Secured Party, the whole or any part of said Pledged Interests so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption,

which equity of redemption the Borrower hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice.

(b) Until the Secured Party is able to effect a sale, lease or other disposition of the Pledged Interests, subject to Gaming Laws, the Secured Party shall have the right to hold or use the Pledged Interests, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Pledged Interests or their value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Secured Party. The Secured Party shall have no obligation to the Borrower to maintain or preserve the rights of the Borrower as against third parties with respect to the Pledged Interests while the Pledged Interests are in the possession of the Secured Party. The Secured Party may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of the Pledged Interests and to enforce any of the Secured Party’s remedies, with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. The Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the repayment of this Note, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to the Borrower. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Pledged Interests except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Borrower agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by the Secured Party of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters.

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein the Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Note or any the Pledged Interests.

(d) (i) The Secured Party hereby agrees that, except as set forth in Section 3(d)(ii) below, its rights under and in respect of this Note and any claim or liability under or reflected by this Note, including in any assertion of this Note or such claims or liabilities against the Borrower, shall be limited to satisfaction out of, and enforcement against, the Pledged Interests and the additional Class A Units and Class B Units held by the Named Executive Members. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party agrees that, except as set forth in Section 3(d)(ii) below, it shall not have the right to proceed directly or indirectly against the Borrower or against its properties and assets (other than the Pledged Interests) for the satisfaction of this Note. The foregoing acknowledgments and agreements shall survive the termination of this Note and shall be enforceable by the Borrower.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed, however, that nothing contained in the above paragraph shall in any manner or any way (i) constitute or be deemed to be a release of the obligations under this Note or the obligations secured by the liens and security interests and possessory rights created by or arising from this Note, or impair the enforceability of such liens, security interests and possessory rights, in each case against the Pledged Interests, (ii) affect or diminish any written obligation, covenant or agreement of the Borrower to which such Person is a party, except for the limitation of recourse with respect to this Note and any claim or liability under or reflected by this Note, or (iii) affect

or diminish any rights of any person against any other person arising from misappropriation or misapplication of any funds or for such other person’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Secured Party that the Borrower has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Note and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of this Note and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder, has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action, and no other action on the part of any of them is required to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Note. This Note has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

5. Covenants. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that, without the consent of the Secured Party, it will not create any liens, encumbrances or other security interests of any kind or nature whatsoever in the Pledged Interests.

6. Amendment Provisions. This Note may not be amended or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written instruments signed by the Borrower and the Secured Party, and then only to the extent set forth therein. Any amendment to this Note will require the approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities to be effective.

7. Severability. If any provision of this Note is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the validity, legality and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions or portions of this Note shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and this Note shall nevertheless be binding between the Borrower and the Secured Party.

8. Binding Effect; Assignment. This Note shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Borrower and the Secured Party thereof and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Note and the obligations of the Borrower set forth herein are not assignable in whole or in part by the Borrower. This Note shall not be assignable by the Secured Party without the prior written consent of the Borrower other than to an Affiliate of the Secured Party.

9. Effect of Waiver. No delay or omission on the part of any Secured Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of such Secured Party, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion. The Borrower, regardless of the time, order or place of signing, waives presentment, demand, protest and notices of every kind.

10. Notices. Any notice required by any provision of this Note to be given to the Secured Party or the Borrower shall be in writing and may be delivered by personal service or facsimile or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with postage thereon fully prepaid. All such communications shall be addressed as follows:

11. Headings and Governing Law/Venue. The descriptive headings in this Note are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Note. The validity, meaning and effect of this Note shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to principles of conflicts or choice of law.

12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN CONNECTION WITH ALL MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH.

13. Expenses. Each of the Borrower and the Secured Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of this Note and the lien created hereunder, including attorney’s and accountant’s fees and expenses, provided that the prevailing party in any litigation shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for all reasonable costs and expenses, including attorney’s and accountant’s fees, incurred in connection with such litigation.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has duly caused this Note to be signed in its name and on its behalf by its duly authorized officer as of the date hereinabove written.
