of this Agreement on which a right of action could be maintained against the
Selling Parties.

interest in Hoosier Park, or any capital stock or other voting securities, or
any substantial portion of the assets, of Seller (including any acquisition
structured as a merger, consolidation, or share exchange or any acquisition of
any interest in Seller's partnership interest in Hoosier Park) or (b)
participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish any
information with respect to, assist or participate in, or facilitate in any
other manner any effort or attempt by any third party to do or seek any of the

<page>
Threshold Level, such indemnification shall be made from the first dollar of
Indemnifiable Losses and no indemnity shall be provided for such Indemnifiable
Losses in excess of the Indemnity Limit.

    9.2       Survival Period. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in the
Disclosure Letter delivered pursuant to this Agreement (or in any other
information delivered to any other party incident to the transactions

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 9.2 to the contrary, any
claim for indemnification made by any party hereto in writing to another party
hereto prior to the expiration of the survival period set forth above shall

              (a)    From the date of closing for the First Option and for one
(1) year thereafter, none of the Selling Parties will (nor will they permit any

to offer employment to all of Hoosier Park's employees effective on the closing
of the Second Option (other than such non-union employees Buyer has identified
by written notice to the Selling Parties within thirty (30) days of the notice
pursuant to which it exercises the Second Option), it being understood that
Hoosier Park thereafter will be free to terminate such employees and that
Hoosier Park may terminate any employees at any time For Cause (as hereinafter
defined).

              (c)    "For Cause" shall mean (i) any act or omission on the part
of an employee that constitutes (A) common law fraud, (B) a felony, or (C)
dishonesty, or (ii) any act or omission on the part of an employee that
jeopardizes Hoosier Park's continuing ability to conduct its business or is
otherwise injurious to Hoosier Park, or (iii) any neglect by an employee in

    9.5       Put Right.  Subject to Regulatory  Approval,  but notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Partnership Agreement, and in addition
to the rights provided therein:

                                       46

<PAGE>


              (a)    If Buyer closes on the First Option and the Second Option,
beginning three years from the date the Second Option is closed, and for one
hundred eighty days thereafter, the Selling Parties shall have the right (the
"Put Right") to sell all, but not less than all, of their respective interests
in Hoosier Park (including, without limitation, Seller's then remaining
partnership interest, CDMC's interest under the Loan, and CDMC's rights under
the Existing Management Agreement and the New Management Agreement, if any, to
Buyer for an amount equal to (i) the difference between (A) the product of
Hoosier Park's trailing twelve month EBITDA (determined according to generally
accepted accounting principles, consistently applied) multiplied by six; less
(B) the amount of Hoosier Park's debt (other than accounts payable incurred in
the ordinary course of business); multiplied by Seller's then percentage
partnership interest in Hoosier Park (e.g. (((EBITDA x 6) - Debt) x %
interest)). The Selling Parties may only exercise the Put Right by delivering
written notice of their intention to do so to Buyer within such one hundred
eighty day period. The consummation of such sale shall be conditioned upon
receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals and consents, including, without
limitation, the approval and consent of the IHRC.

              (b)    The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
agree on the purchase price for Put Right, based on the above formula, within
thirty days of the date on which the Selling Parties exercise the Put Right. If
they are unable to do so each of the Selling Parties on the one hand, and Buyer
on the other hand, shall (within thirty days from the date such initial thirty
day period expires) each engage an independent accounting firm of national
recognition to calculate the purchase price based on the above formula, which
calculation shall be completed within fifteen days of the date on which such
accounting firm is engaged. In the event that the lower calculation is not less
than ninety percent (90%) of the higher calculation, the average of the two
calculations shall be the purchase price. If the lower calculation is less than
ninety percent (90%) of the higher calculation, the two accounting firms shall
jointly (and within thirty days of the date on which the last calculation is
made) engage a third independent accounting firm who shall be similarly
qualified and who shall calculate the purchase price based on the above formula
within fifteen days of the date it is engaged. In the event a third accounting
firm is obtained, the purchase price shall be the average of the two closest
calculations. All parties shall forthwith deliver to each of accounting firms
all documents and information requested and, even if not requested, necessary or
helpful in making a calculation of the purchase price. The Selling Parties shall
pay the cost of the accounting firm engaged by them and one-half of the cost of
the third accounting firm (if engaged) and Buyer shall pay the cost of the
accounting firm engaged by it and one-half of the cost of the third accounting
firm (if engaged).

              (c)    If Buyer fails or refuses to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Put Right after the Selling Parties properly and timely
exercise the Put Right, the parties agree that Hoosier Park shall be sold (by
asset sale, merger, sale of equity interests, or otherwise) to the highest and
best bidder; provided, however, that such sale shall be subject to Hoosier Park
obtaining an opinion from a financial institution of national reputation
("Financial Institution") that the consideration to be received and terms of
such transaction are fair to the selling parties. Within ten days of the date
Buyer notifies the Selling Parties of its intention not to consummate the Put
Right (the "Trigger Date"), the partner controlling the sale (as determined

                                       47

<page>
below) shall take all necessary steps to solicit independent purchasers of
Hoosier Park, or all of its assets, which may include engaging brokers, finders
and/or investment bankers to market Hoosier Park, and to cause Hoosier Park to
be sold to the highest and best bidder in one or more transactions to be
consummated within twelve months of the Trigger Date. All costs associated with
the sale of Hoosier Park shall be borne by Hoosier Park. For purposes of this
Section 9.5(c), the "highest and best bidder" shall be deemed to be the bidder
that presents a bona fide written offer to acquire Hoosier Park, pursuant to a
tender or exchange offer, a merger, consolidation or other business combination
or a sale of all or substantially all of assets of Hoosier Park on terms which
the partner controlling the sale determines in its good faith reasonable
judgment (based on the advice of independent financial advisors) to be more
favorable than the offer or offers provided by any other person or entity,
provided that in making such determination the partner controlling the sale
considers the likelihood that such bidder is able to consummate such proposed
transaction. In the event that such sale is not consummated because Hoosier Park
is unable to obtain a fairness opinion from a Financial Institution, then the
parties have no further rights or obligations under this Section 9.5(c) and
Hoosier Park shall not be sold. If Hoosier Park is not so sold, the parties
shall immediately have the rights described in Section 9.6 below. Each party
shall execute such agreements and assignments and provide such customary
representations, warranties, indemnities and covenants as the highest and best
bidder may reasonably request to document and effect a sale and purchase of
Hoosier Park as contemplated by this Section 9.5(c). It is expressly agreed that
any partner of Hoosier Park may make one or more bids to purchase Hoosier Park,
or its assets; provided, however, that such partner must (if it desires to be a
bidder) notify the remaining partners of its intention to be a bidder before
bids are solicited from third parties and if a partner so notifies the other
partner, the other partner shall from and after the date of such notice (a)
control the process to cause Hoosier Park, or its assets, to be sold, and (b)
determine (based upon the criteria described above) the identity of the highest
and best bidder. In the absence of such notice, no partner may bid and the
general partner shall control the sale.

    9.6       Shootout.  Subject to Regulatory  Approval,  but  notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Partnership Agreement, and in addition
to the rights provided therein:

              (a)    If Buyer closes on the First Option but fails to close on
the Second Option or if Hoosier Park is not sold for the reason set forth in
Section 9.5(c), either Seller or Buyer shall have the right to offer to either
(i) sell the entire interest it then owns as a partner in Hoosier Park,
including its rights, if any, under the Participation Agreement, Existing
Management Agreement, the New Management Agreement, and any related or similar
agreements, to the other for an amount equal to the result of (A) the total
value of Hoosier Park as a going concern (which shall include the value of all
equity, the value of the Loan and the value of any other agreements, including
the management agreements), as determined by the offering party (the "Total
Enterprise Value") multiplied by (B) the percentage interest the offering party
then owns as a partner in Hoosier Park (the "Offered Sales Price"), or (ii)
purchase the entire interest the other party then owns as a partner in Hoosier
Park for an amount equal to the result of (A) the Total Enterprise Value
multiplied by (B) the percentage interest the other party then owns as a partner
in Hoosier Park (the "Offered Purchase Price") (such right to either purchase or
sell, the "Shootout Right"). If the offering party so desires to exercise its
Shootout Right, it shall do so by written notice (the "Shootout Notice"). A
Shootout Notice may only be delivered between June 1 and August 31 during any

                                       48

calendar year. The non-offering party shall then be obligated to either sell its
partnership interest for the Offered Purchase Price, or purchase the offering
party's partnership interest for the Offered Sales Price. The non-offering party
shall have sixty (60) days from delivery of the Shootout Notice (the "Shootout
Period") to notify the offering party as to whether it will sell its partnership
interest or purchase the offering party's partnership interest. If the
non-offering party fails to respond to the Shootout Notice during the Shootout
Period, the non-offering party shall be deemed to have elected to sell its
partnership interest as set forth above. The closing date for a purchase
pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall be within thirty days of the date the last
required Regulatory Approval necessary for the consummation of the purchase is
obtained.

              (b)    Upon expiration of the Shootout Period, the parties shall
be obligated to sell or purchase their respective interests as hereinabove
provided in Section 9.6(a), on the terms and conditions set forth herein
relating to the sale of the Transferred Partnership Interest, subject to the
provisions of Section 1.6 above.

    9.7       Additional Interests Acquired. Any sale of the partnership
interestin Hoosier Park of Seller or Buyer pursuant to exercise of the First
Option or econd Option or pursuant to Section 9.5 or Section 9.6 shall include
the sale of such party's (and its Affiliates') rights under the Loan, the
Existing Management Agreement, and the New Management Agreement, if any. The
allocation of the price shall be allocated as set forth in Section 2.4 above
such that the price shall first be allocated to the principal amount of the
Loan, if any, being acquired, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and second shall
be allocated to the partnership interest and other rights acquired by Buyer.

    9.8       Acquisition of the Conseco Interest. The Selling Parties
acknowledge that on or before the Closing, Buyer may acquire (by purchase, stock
purchase, merger, consolidation, share exchange, or otherwise) the Conseco
Interest. Seller hereby waives any and all rights of first refusal it may have
under the Partnership Agreement if Buyer seeks to so acquire such interest of
Conseco, and CDMC gives any and all consents required under the Financial
Advisory Agreement, the Conseco Participation Agreement, and the Conseco Pledge
Agreement between CDMC and Conseco dated May 31, 1996 (the "Conseco Pledge
Agreement") necessary to cause the Financial Advisory Agreement and Conseco
Participation Agreement to be assigned to Buyer and to otherwise permit transfer
of the Conseco Interest to Buyer. At the closing of the acquisition of the
Conseco Interest by Buyer, (a) the Conseco Pledge Agreement shall be terminated
and the Pegasus Pledge Agreement between Buyer's predecessor in interest,
Pegasus Group, Inc., and CDMC dated August 30,1994, as amended ("the "Pegasus
Pledge Agreement"), shall be amended and restated to reflect a pledge by Buyer
with respect to all of its then existing partnership interests in Hoosier Park,
and (b) the Selling Parties shall fully and completely release and discharge
Conseco from any further obligations under the Partnership Agreement, the
Financial Advisory Agreement, and the Conseco Participation Agreement. After the
assignment of the Financial Advisory Agreement and the Conseco Participation
Agreement to Buyer, such agreements shall be construed so as to substitute Buyer
for Conseco in each reference to Conseco therein.

    9.9       Financial Advisory Agreement. If Buyer acquires Conseco's rights
under the Financial Advisory Agreement, from and after the Closing of the

                                       49

<page>
transaction described in Section 1.1, Buyer shall be entitled to the payment of
fees otherwise payable to Conseco under the Financial Advisory Agreement during
the entire term of the Existing Management Agreement, notwithstanding Section 4
of the Financial Advisory Agreement terminating the Financial Advisory Agreement
in the event the Loan is repaid. Further, notwithstanding the last paragraph of
Section 2(a) of the Financial Advisory Agreement, Buyer's right to determine the
location of the fourth satellite wagering facility in Indiana shall be subject
to approval by Seller.

    9.10      Additional Consents. If the options previously granted to Kenneth
Cragen and Michael Phillips for the purchase of a portion of Buyer's partnership
interest in Hoosier Park are exercised, the Selling Parties hereby consent to
such exercise and waive any and all rights of first refusal, co-sale or similar
or other rights they have or may have with respect thereto under the Partnership
Agreement; provided, that such consent and waiver are subject to the Closing and
to the Selling Parties conducting a due diligence investigation of Kenneth
Cragen and Michael Phillips, the results of which shall be satisfactory to the
Selling Parties in their sole discretion (such investigation shall be completed
within thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement); and provided, further,
that the exercise of such options are subject to obtaining the necessary
Regulatory Approvals. In addition, and subject to the Closing, Seller waives any
and all rights of first refusal, co-sale or similar or other rights it has or
may have under the Partnership Agreement if Buyer reacquires any partnership
interest issued to Kenneth Cragen and/or Michael Phillips pursuant to the
exercise of their options. The Selling Parties further hereby acknowledge their
prior consent to and ratify and approve the prior transfer of the interest of
Centaur, Inc. as a partner in Hoosier Park to Buyer including, without
limitation, the Pegasus Pledge Agreement.

    9.11      Simulcasting Rights. The parties agree that from the date of the
consummation of a transaction under Sections 9.5 or 9.6 above, they will each
negotiate for making available Churchill Downs simulcast signals to Hoosier Park

shall become the general partner of Hoosier Park upon the date it acquires
fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the partnership interests in Hoosier Park.

Hoosier Park's facilities under applicable law, the parties shall cause Hoosier
Park to enter into a management agreement (the "New Management Agreement") with
Centaur and CDMC as co-managers (CDMC to be the lead manager while Seller is the

CDMC and Buyer pro-rata, based upon the percentage partnership interests of
Seller and Buyer, respectively.

The parties agree to subordinate their rights to receive the amounts described

use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) draft a New Management Agreement

                                       51

Any party may change its address or facsimile number by providing written

    10.3      Expenses.

              (a)    Each party hereto will pay all costs, fees and expenses

in accordance  with the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to such
jurisdiction's conflict of laws principles.

    10.5      Partial Invalidity. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, but this Agreement
shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or
provisions had never been contained herein.

    10.6      Assignment. None of the Selling Parties may assign this Agreement,
or any rights hereunder, to any other party without the prior written consent of
Buyer. A Selling Party may, however, assign this Agreement to one of its

                                       55

<page>
Affiliate of Buyer, provided, however, that Buyer shall not make any such
assignment of its rights without having given Seller written notice of the
proposed assignment, which notice shall identify the beneficial owners of such
Affiliate (the "Assignment Notice"). For a period of thirty (30) days after the
giving of the Assignment Notice, Seller shall be entitled to give Buyer written
notice of rejection of such proposed Affiliate (the "Rejection Notice") if
Seller, upon the advice of legal counsel and in its reasonable, good faith
judgment, believes that the assignment to such proposed Affiliate would
jeopardize Hoosier Park's continuing ability to conduct (or is materially
injurious to) its business because of the identity of one or more of such
beneficial owners, which Rejection Notice shall specify the beneficial owner or
owners of such Affiliate to whom Seller takes exception. Buyer may thereafter
assign its rights hereunder to such Affiliate of Buyer if such beneficial owner
or owners to whom Seller has taken exception no longer hold a beneficial
ownership interest in such Affiliate. Seller hereby also agrees that Buyer may
assign its rights to the current partnership interest in Hoosier Park owned by
Buyer to a majority-owned Affiliate of Buyer on the terms set forth in this
Section 10.6 above, and Seller waives any and all right Seller may have to
acquire such partnership interest under the Partnership Agreement, along with
any co-sale or rights of first refusal of Seller. Notwithstanding anything else
to the contrary herein contained, if any party hereto makes an assignment
pursuant to this Section 10.6, it shall not be released from any of its
obligations under this Agreement.

    10.7      Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.6
above, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

    10.8      Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one
or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original counterpart,
and all of which shall be considered to be but one agreement and shall become a
binding agreement when each party shall have executed one counterpart and
delivered it to the other party hereto.

    10.9      Titles and Headings; Rules of Construction. Titles and headings to
sections herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not
intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement. Whenever the context so requires the use of or reference to any
gender includes the masculine, feminine and neuter genders; and all terms used
in the singular shall have comparable meanings when used in the plural and vice

    10.10     Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement contains

Interest Purchase Agreement by and among the parties hereto dated as of February
16, 2000, and all other documents, instruments and agreements executed in
connection therewith, all of which are terminated and of no further force or
effect and with respect to which no party hereto has any further liability. The
parties, by mutual agreement in writing, may amend, modify and supplement this
Agreement. The failure of any party to this Agreement to enforce at any time any
provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such

                                       56

<page>
provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part
hereof or the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every such
provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute
a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

    10.11     Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and shall be of no
further force or effect (a) upon mutual written agreement of the parties hereto,
or (b) upon notice given by any party which is not in breach of this Agreement
to the other party hereto in the event the Closing has not occurred on or before
December 27, 2001; provided, however, that if the Closing has not occurred prior
to such date due to delays in acquiring any of the Regulatory Approvals and the
party responsible for acquiring such approvals is diligently pursuing the same,
this Agreement may not be so terminated and the Closing Date shall be extended
until January 4, 2002, so long as such party continues to diligently pursue
their acquisition; provided, further that if the Closing has not occurred on or
before January 4, 2002, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further
force or effect immediately upon notice given by any party hereto. Except for

Title: _________________________

Centaur, Inc. hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees the due, prompt
and punctual performance of Buyer's obligations under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the full payment of the Purchase Price under Sections 2.1
and 2.2 of this Agreement, including any reasonable attorneys' fees and the
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Selling Parties directly relating
to the enforcement of this guaranty or Buyer's obligations under this Agreement,
including the payment of the Purchase Price (collectively, the "Obligations").
The Selling Parties shall have the right of immediate recourse against Centaur,
Inc. for full and immediate payment or performance of the Obligations at any
time after the Obligations, or any part thereof, have not been paid or performed
when owed or due. This is a guaranty of payment, not of collection, and Centaur,
Inc. therefore agrees and acknowledges that the Selling Parties shall not be
obligated to take any action against Buyer prior to seeking recourse against and
receiving payment from Centaur, Inc. Centaur, Inc. unconditionally and
irrevocably waives each and every defense which, under principles of guaranty or
suretyship law, would operate to impair or diminish the liability of Centaur,
Inc. hereunder. Centaur, Inc. unconditionally waives: [i] any subrogation to the
rights of the Selling Parties against Buyer, until all of the Obligations have
been satisfied in full; and [ii] any acceptance of this guaranty.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Centaur, Inc. shall have no liability or
obligation under this guaranty if Buyer fails or refuses to pay or perform any
of the Obligations as a result of the failure of any of the conditions precedent
to Buyer's obligations described in this Agreement above not waived by Buyer.
