4.3  SECURITY. KAR shall provide for appropriate security of the operation of
the Enterprise. All aspects of the Facility security shall be the
responsibility of KAR. Any security officer shall be bonded and insured in an
amount commensurate with his or her enforcement duties and obligations. The
cost of any charge for security and increased public safety services will be an
Operating Expense. All resources of the surveillance department shall be fully
accessible to the Shingle Springs Gaming Commission at all times. The
Commission shall have the authority to require that department to cooperate in
all investigations, to turn over any and all video and audio recordings, to
turn over any operations logs, and any other documentation kept in the normal
course of business by that department, and to visually monitor any facet of the
gaming operations.

4.4  DAMAGE, CONDEMNATION OR IMPOSSIBILITY OF THE ENTERPRISE. If, during the
term of this Agreement, the Facility is damaged or destroyed by fire, war, or
other casualty, or by an Act of God, or is taken by condemnation or sold under
the threat of condemnation, or if Gaming on the Property is prohibited as a
result of a decision of a court of competent jurisdiction or by operation of any
applicable legislation, KAR shall have the following options:

     4.4.1  RECOMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS. If Gaming on the Property is
     prohibited by Legal Requirements, KAR shall have the option to continue its
     interest in this Agreement and to commence or recommence the operation of
     Gaming at the Facility if, at some point during the Term of this Agreement,
     such commencement or recommencement shall be legally and commercially
     feasible in the sole judgement of KAR.

     4.4.2  REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. If the Facility is damaged, destroyed or
     condemned so that Gaming can no longer be conducted at the Facility, the
     Facility shall be reconstructed if the insurance or condemnation proceeds
     are sufficient to restore or replace the Facility to a condition at least
     comparable to that before the casualty occurred. If KAR elects to
     reconstruct the Facility and if the insurance

                                        16
<PAGE>   23
proceeds or condemnation awards are insufficient to reconstruct the Facility to
such condition, KAR may, in its sole discretion, advance such additional funds
as are necessary to reconstruct the Facility to such condition and such fund
shall, with the prior consent of SHINGLE SPRINGS and the BIA or NIGC, as
appropriate, constitute a loan to SHINGLE SPRINGS, secured by the revenues from
the Enterprise and repayable upon such terms as may be agreed upon by SHINGLE
SPRINGS and KAR. SHINGLE SPRINGS may also elect to advance funds or borrow funds
from a third party to reconstruct the Facility and such funds shall constitute a
loan to the Enterprise repayable as an operating expense upon such terms as may
be agreed upon by SHINGLE SPRINGS and KAR. The loan provided for herein shall
not be subject to the ceiling set forth in the Development Agreement. If the
insurance proceeds are not sufficient and are not used to repair the Facility,
SHINGLE SPRINGS and KAR shall jointly adjust and settle any and all claims for
such insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, and such proceeds or award shall
be applied first, to the amounts due under the Note or Security and
Reimbursement Agreement (including principal and interest); second, any other
loans; third, any undistributed Net Revenues pursuant to Section 6 of this
Agreement, and fourth, any surplus shall be distributed to SHINGLE SPRINGS.

4.4.3     OTHER BUSINESS PURPOSES. KAR shall have the option to use the
Facility for other purposes provided the Tribal Council has approved such
purposes (which written approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). For any
purpose other than Gaming, KAR shall obtain all written approvals necessary
under applicable law.

4.4.4     TERMINATION OF GAMING. KAR shall have the option at any time within a
sixty (60) day period following the cessation of Gaming on the Property to
notify SHINGLE SPRINGS in writing that it is terminating operations under this
Agreement, in which case KAR shall retain any rights KAR may have to
undistributed Net Revenues pursuant to Section 6 prior to the date of
termination of this Agreement and rights to repayments of amounts owed to it.
If KAR does not elect to terminate this Agreement, it may take whatever action
may be necessary to reduce expenses during such termination of Gaming.

4.4.5     TOLLING OF THE AGREEMENT. If, after a period of cessation of Gaming
on the Property, the recommencement of Gaming is possible, and if KAR has not
terminated this Agreement under the provisions of Section 4.4.4, the period of
such cessation shall not be deemed to have been part of the term of this
Agreement and the date of expiration of the term of this Agreement shall be
extended by the number of days of such cessation. Any reasonable payments
agreed upon by the Tribal Council or made to any third party to eliminate
rights acquired in the Property, the Facility or the Business during the period
of cessation or to eliminate or cure the problems which caused the cessation of
Gaming shall constitute Operating Expenses of the Business.

                                     17
<PAGE>   24
4.5  ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AND TOBACCO SALES. During the term of this Agreement
alcoholic beverages may be served at the Facility if permissible in accordance
with applicable law. The parties acknowledge that no enabling SHINGLE SPRINGS
legislation for the sale of alcoholic beverages is now in force, and that such
legislation would be necessary in order to serve alcoholic beverages at the
Facility. If such legislation is subsequently enacted, and if other requisite
written approvals are obtained, SHINGLE SPRINGS and a KAR may mutually agree to
include service of such beverages within the Enterprise. Tobacco may be sold at
the Facility subject to and in accordance with SHINGLE SPRINGS's licensing
requirements, if any.

4.6  EMPLOYEES.

     4.6.1 KAR'S RESPONSIBILITY. Except as limited by Section 4.6.3 or other
     specific provisions of this Agreement, the KAR shall have, subject to the
     terms of this Agreement, the exclusive responsibility and authority to
     direct the selection, control and discharge of all employees performing
     regular services for the Enterprise in connection with maintenance,
     operation, and management of the Enterprise and the Facility and any
     activity upon the Property; and the sole responsibility for determining
     whether a prospective employee is qualified and the appropriate level of
     compensation to be paid, subject to the requirement of Section 4.6.7.

     4.6.2 ENTERPRISE EMPLOYEE POLICIES. KAR shall prepare a draft of personnel
     policies and procedures (the "Enterprise Employee Policies"), including a
     job classification system with salary levels and scales, which policies and
     procedures shall be subject to written approval by the Tribal Council. The
     Enterprise Employee Policies shall include a grievance procedure in order
     to establish fair and uniform standards for the employees of SHINGLE
     SPRINGS engaged in the Enterprise, which will include procedures for the
     resolution of disputes between the KAR and the Enterprises as set forth in
     Exhibit A attached hereto. Any revisions to the Enterprise Employee
     Policies shall not be effective unless they are approved in the same manner
     as the original Enterprise Employee Policies. All such actions shall comply
     with applicable SHINGLE SPRINGS law.

     4.6.3 KEY EMPLOYEES. The selection of the General Manager following the
     recommendation by KAR shall be subject to the written approval of the
     SHINGLE SPRINGS Tribal Council or its authorized designee and approval
     shall not be unreasonably withheld. KAR and SHINGLE SPRINGS expect that
     initially, in addition to this person, there will be a core group of
     employees working for the Enterprise, filling the positions set forth at
     Exhibit B (collectively, the "Key Employees"). The salaries and benefits of
     these Key Employees shall be subject to written approval by the Tribal
     Council and shall be an Operating Expense of the Enterprise. Nothing
     contained herein is intended to limit KAR's right to reasonably consolidate
     or eliminate any of these positions, or, subject to

                                       18
<PAGE>   25
Section 4.6.9 and subject to the written approval of the Tribal Council, to
increase the number of Key Employees.

4.6.4 OFF-SITE EMPLOYEES. Subject to written approval of the Tribal Council,
KAR shall also have the right to use employees of KAR and KAR's Affiliates not
located at the Facility to provide services to the Enterprise ("Off-Site
Employees"). All expenses, costs (including, but not limited to, salaries and
benefits, but excluding pension, retirement, severance or similar benefits),
which are related to such Off-Site Employees shall be subject to the Operating
Budget approved by the Tribal Council, and shall be treated as Pre-Opening
Expenses or Operating Expenses as appropriate.

4.6.5 NO KAR WAGES OR SALARIES. Except as otherwise provided with respect to
Key Employees described in Section 4.6.3 and Off-Site Employees described in
Section 4.6.4, neither KAR nor KAR's Affiliates nor any of their officers,
directors, shareholders, or employees shall be compensated by wages from or
contract payments by the Enterprise for their efforts or for any work which
they perform under this Agreement, other than loan repayments, reimbursement
pursuant to the Security and Reimbursement Agreement and the Management Fee to
be paid to KAR under Section 6.1. Nothing in this subsection shall restrict the
ability of an employee of the Enterprise to purchase or hold stock in KAR, or
KAR's Affiliates where (i) such stock is publicly held, and (ii) such employee
acquires, on a cumulative basis, less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding
stock in the corporation.

4.6.6 SHINGLE SPRINGS REGULATORY AUTHORITY (COSTS). The funding of the
operation of SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory Authority shall, prior to the
Commencement Date, be a start up expense of the Enterprise and thereafter shall
be an Operating Expense. The budget for the SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory
Authority shall be in an amount which reasonably reflects the cost of operating
of this Agency up to a maximum cost of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of
Gross Gaming Revenue, but in no event shall this payment be less than $200,000
if Class III gaming is operated. Subject to the minimum and maximum amount
described above, payments of 25% of the SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory Authority's
annual approved budget shall be payable to SHINGLE SPRINGS bank account
specified by the Tribal Council in a notice to KAR pursuant to the Notices
Section of this Agreement on January 21st, April 21st, July 21st and October
21st of each calendar year. Such payments shall not be combined with any other
payments to SHINGLE SPRINGS and said regulatory expense shall be an operating
expense.

4.6.7 EMPLOYEE BACKGROUND CHECKS. A background investigation shall be
consistent with the IGRA, the Compact and the Minimum Internal Controls
conducted by the SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory Authority in compliance with all
Legal Requirements, to the extent applicable, on each applicant for

                                       19
<PAGE>   26
employment as soon as reasonably practicable.

No individual whose prior activities, criminal record, if any, or reputation,
habits and association are known to pose a threat to the public interest, the
effective regulation of Gaming, or to the gaming licenses of KAR or any or its
Affiliates, or to create or enhance the dangers of unsuitable, unfair or
illegal practices and methods and activities in the conduct of Gaming, shall
knowingly be employed by KAR.

The background investigation procedures employed by the SHINGLE SPRINGS
Regulatory Authority shall be formulated in consultation with KAR and shall
satisfy all regulatory requirements independently applicable to KAR. Any cost
associated with obtaining such background investigations shall constitute an
Operating Expense, provided, however, the costs of background investigations
relating to KAR, its Affiliates and the shareholders, officers and directors of
KAR or its Affiliates shall be borne solely by KAR, and shall not be treated as
part of the Loan or as Operating Expenses of the Enterprise.

4.6.8  INDIAN PREFERENCE, RECRUITING AND TRAINING.  KAR shall, during the term
of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, including but not
limited to the Indian Civil Rights Act, 25 U.S.C. Section 1301 et. seq., give
preference in recruiting, training and employment to qualified Indians who
reside on or near the lands within the confines of the Shingle Springs Rancheria
and to such land as may hereafter be added thereto as provided in the
Constitution of SHINGLE SPRINGS in all job categories of the Enterprise. KAR
shall:

     (i)    conduct job fairs and skills assessment meetings for SHINGLE SPRINGS
     members;

     (ii)   in consultation with and subject to the written approval of SHINGLE
     SPRINGS, develop a management training program. This program shall be
     structured to provide appropriate training for those participating to
     assume full managerial control at the conclusion of the Term of this
     Agreement; and

     (iii)  train and hire, to the maximum extent permitted by law, members of
     the local communities where the Facility is located. Final determination
     of the qualifications of all persons for employment shall be made by KAR,
     subject to any licensing requirements of SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory
     Authority.

     (v)    Within two hundred seventy (270) days of the Commencement Date, KAR
     shall develop and present to SHINGLE SPRINGS for its written approval, a
     training plan designed to progressively reduce the number of KAR Employees,
     so that, by the end of the Term of the

                                       20
<PAGE>   27
          Agreement, all Enterprise Employees will be SHINGLE SPRINGS
          Employees.

     4.6.9  GOALS AND REMEDIES.  All hiring for the Enterprise shall be done
     by KAR, based on the hiring policies established by the parties in
     consultation with each other.

     4.6.10 REMOVAL OF EMPLOYEES.  KAR will act in accordance with the
     Enterprise Employee Policies with respect to the discharge, demotion
     or discipline of any Enterprise Employee.

     4.6.11  INDIAN PREFERENCE CONTRACTING.  KAR shall during the term of
     this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, including
     but not limited to the Indian Civil Rights Act, 25 U.S.C. 1301 et. Seq.,
     give preference in contracting for goods and services for the Enterprise
     to qualified Indians who reside on or near the lands within the confines
     of the Shingle Springs Rancheria and to such land as may hereafter be
     added thereto as provided in the Constitution of Shingle Springs. Qualified
     shall mean a person who is able to provide the same quality services and
     has demonstrated skills and abilities to perform the tasks to be undertaken
     in an acceptable manner, as non-Indian competitors at competitive prices,
     and shall be able to meet the bonding requirements of KAR and the
     Enterprise.

4.7  OPTIONAL SERVICES.  SHINGLE SPRINGS acknowledges that KAR and KAR's
Affiliates may provide services in addition to those which are encompassed by
this Agreement. SHINGLE SPRINGS agrees to consider in good faith any
bids/proposals presented to it by KAR or any of KAR's Affiliates to provide any
such additional services to the Enterprise, it being understood, however, that
this Section shall in no event be construed to require SHINGLE SPRINGS to
accept any such bid/proposal.

4.8  PRE-OPENING. Six (6) months prior to the scheduled Commencement Date, KAR
shall commence implementation of a pre-opening program which shall include all
activities necessary to financially and operationally prepare the Facility for
opening. To implement the pre-opening program, KAR shall prepare a
comprehensive pre-opening budget which shall be submitted to the Tribal Council
for their written approval no later than seven (7) months prior to the
scheduled Commencement Date ("Pre-Opening Budget"). The Pre-Opening Budget sets
forth expenses which KAR anticipates to be necessary or desirable in order to
prepare the Facility for the Commencement, including without limitation, cash
for disbursements, Furnishings and Equipment, initial Operating Equipment and
Operating Supplies, hiring, training, relocation and temporary lodging of
employees, advertising and promotion, office overhead and office space (whether
on or off the Property), and travel and business entertainment (including
opening celebrations and ceremonies) ("Pre-Opening Expenses"). SHINGLE SPRINGS
recognizes that the Pre-Opening Budget has been prepared well in advance of
Commencement and is intended only to be a reasonable estimate, subject to
variation due to a number of factors,

                                       21

<PAGE>   28
some of which will be outside of KAR's control (e.g. the time of completion,
inflationary factors and varying conditions for the goods and services
required). SHINGLE SPRINGS agrees that the Pre-Opening Budget may be modified
from time to time, subject to written approval of SHINGLE SPRINGS in accordance
with the procedure established by Article 4.9 of this Agreement for adjustments
to the Operating Budget and Annual Plan.

4.9  OPERATING BUDGET AND ANNUAL PLAN.  KAR shall, prior to the scheduled
Commencement Date, submit to the Tribal Council, for its written approval, a
proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan for the remainder of the current
Fiscal Year. Thereafter, KAR shall, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the
commencement of each full or partial Fiscal Year, submit to the Tribal Council,
for its written approval, a proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan for the
ensuing full or partial Fiscal Year, as the case may be. The Operating Budget
and Annual Plan shall include a projected income statement, balance sheet, and
projection of cash flow for the Enterprise, with detailed justifications
explaining the assumptions used therein and included with the Operating Budget
and Annual Plan be a schedule of repairs and maintenance (other than Capital
Replacements), a business and marketing plan for the Fiscal Year, and the
Minimum Balance which must remain in the Bank Account and the Facility Bank as
of the end of each month during the Fiscal Year to assure sufficient monies for
working capital purposes, the Facility Bank and other expenditures authorized
under the Operating Budget and Annual Plan.

The Operating Budget and Annual Plan for the Enterprise will be comprised of
the following:

     (a)  a statement of the estimated income and expenses for the coming
     Fiscal Year, including estimates as to Gross Revenues and Operating
     Expenses for such Fiscal Year, such operating budget to reflect the
     estimated results of the operation during each Fiscal Month of the
     subject Fiscal Year;

     (b)  either as part of the statement of the estimated income and expenses
     referred to in the preceding clause (a), or separately, budgets (and
     timetables and requirements of KAR) for:

          (i)    repairs and maintenance;

          (ii)   Capital Replacements;

          (iii)  Operating Equipment;

          (iv)   advertising and business promotion programs for the Casino;
                 and

          (v)    the estimated cost of Promotional Allowances; and


                                       22
<PAGE>   29
       (c)  a business and marketing plan for the subject Fiscal Year.

The Tribal Council's written approval of the Operating Budget and Annual Plan
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. KAR shall meet with the Tribal
Council to discuss the proposed Operating Budget and Annual plan and the Tribal
Council's written approval shall be deemed given unless a specific written
objection thereto is delivered by the Tribal Council to KAR within fifteen
(15) days after KAR and the Tribal Council have met to discuss the proposed
Operating Budget and Annual Plan. If the Tribal Council for any reason decline
to meet with KAR to discuss a proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan, the
Tribal Council shall be deemed to have consented unless a specific written
objection is delivered to KAR within fifteen (15) days after the date the
proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan is submitted to the Tribal Council.
The Tribal Council shall review the Operating Budget and Annual Plan on a
line-by-line basis: To be effective, any notice which disapproves a proposed
Operating Budget and Annual Plan must contain specific objections in reasonable
detail to individual line items.

       If the initial proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan contains
       disputed budget item(s), the Tribal Council and the KAR agree to
       cooperate with each other in good faith to resolve the disputed or
       objectionable proposed item(s). In the event the Tribal Council and the
       KAR are not able to reach mutual agreement concerning any disputed or
       objectionable item(s) within twenty one (21) days after the date SHINGLE
       SPRINGS representatives on the Tribal Council provides written notice of
       its objection to KAR, either party shall be entitled to submit the
       dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 17.1. If the Tribal
       Council and KAR are unable to resolve the disputed or objectionable
       item(s) prior to the commencement of the applicable fiscal year, the
       undisputed portions of the proposed Operating Budget and Annual Plan
       shall be deemed to be adopted and approved and the corresponding line
       item(s) contained in the Operating Budget and Annual Plan for the
       preceding fiscal year shall be adjusted as set forth herein and shall be
       substituted in lieu of the disputed item(s) in the proposed Operating
       Budget and Annual Plan. Those line items which are in dispute shall be
       determined by increasing the preceding fiscal year's actual expense for
       the corresponding line items by an amount determined by KAR which does
       not exceed the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by
       the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor,
       U.S. City Average, all items (1982-1984=100) for the fiscal year prior to
       the fiscal year with respect to which the adjustment to the line item(s)
       is being calculated or any successor or replacement index thereto. The
       resulting Operating Budget be deemed to be the Operating Budget and
       annual Plan in effect until such time as KAR and the Tribal Council have
       resolved the items objected to by the Tribal Council.

4.9.1  ADJUSTMENTS TO OPERATING BUDGET AND ANNUAL PLAN. KAR may, after notice
to and written approval by the Tribal Council, revise the Operating Budget and
annual Plan from time to time, as necessary, to reflect any unpredicted
significant changes, variables

                                       23


<PAGE>   30
or events or additional, unanticipated items of expense. KAR may, after notice
to the Tribal Council, reallocate part of all of the amount budgeted with
respect to any line item to another line item and to make such other
modifications to the Operating Budget and Annual Plan as KAR deems necessary,
provided that the total adjustments to the Operating Budget and Annual Plan
shall not exceed one hundred ten percent (110%) of the aggregate approved
Operating Budget and Annual Plan without written approval of the Tribal Council.
KAR shall submit a revision of the Operating Budget and Annual Plan to the
Tribal Council for review on a quarterly basis. In addition, in the event actual
Gross Revenues for any fiscal period are greater than those provided for in the
Operating Budget and annual Plan, the amounts approved in the Operating Budget
and Annual Plan for guest services, food and beverage, telephone, utilities,
marketing and the repair and maintenance of the Facility for any fiscal month
shall be automatically deemed to be increased to an amount that bears the same
relationship (ratio) to the amount budgeted for such items as actual Gross
Revenue for such fiscal month. SHINGLE SPRINGS acknowledges that the Operating
Budget and Annual Plan is intended only to be a reasonable estimate of the
Enterprise's revenues and expenses for the ensuing Fiscal Year. KAR shall not be
deemed to have made any guarantee concerning projected results contained in the
Operating Budget and Annual Plan.

4.10 CAPITAL BUDGETS. KAR shall, not more than sixty (60) days or less than
thirty (30) days prior to the Commencement of each fiscal year, or partial
fiscal year, submit to the Tribal Council a recommended "Capital Budget"
describing the present value, estimated useful life and estimated replacement
costs for the ensuing full or partial year, as the case may be, for the
Property, Furnishings, Equipment, and ordinary Capital Replacement items, all of
which are defined to be any items, the cost of which is capitalized and
depreciated, rather than expensed, using GAAP ("Capital Replacements") as shall
be required to operate the Enterprise in accordance with sound business
practices. Capital Replacements in the Capital Budget in an aggregate sum equal
to or less than the sum of the Capital Replacement Reserve for the fiscal Year
shall be recommended by KAR and approved by the Tribal Council; and any amounts
in excess of the Capital Replacement Reserve for the Fiscal Year shall be
subject to written approval of the Tribal Council. The Tribal Council, and KAR
shall meet to discuss the proposed Capital Budget and the Tribal Council shall
be required to make specific written objections to a proposed Capital Budget in
the same manner and within the same time periods specified in Section 4.9 with
respect to an Operating Budget and Annual Plan. The Tribal Council shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay its consent. KAR shall be responsible for the
design and installation of Capital Replacements, subject to the Tribal
Council's written approval, and inspection, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

4.11 CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS. SHINGLE SPRINGS shall effect and expend such amounts
for any Capital Replacements as shall be required, in the course of the
operation of the Enterprise, to maintain, at a minimum, the Enterprise in
compliance with any Legal Requirements and to comply with KAR's recommended
programs for renovation, modernization and improvement intended to keep the
Enterprise competitive in its market, or to correct any condition of an
emergency nature, including without limitation,

                                       24
<PAGE>   31
maintenance, replacements or repairs which are required to be effected by
SHINGLE SPRINGS, which in KAR's sole discretion requires immediate action to
preserve and protect the comfort, health, safety and/or welfare of the
Facility's guests or employees (an "Emergency Condition"); provided, however,
that SHINGLE SPRINGS shall be under no obligation to fund Capital Replacements
in aggregate amount greater than its periodic required contributions to the
Capital Replacement Reserve described in Section 4.12. KAR is authorized to
take all steps and to make all expenditures from the Disbursement Account,
described at Section 4.17.3 (in the case of non-capitalized repairs and
maintenance), or Capital Replacement Reserve, described in Section 4.12, (in
the case of expenditures for Capital Replacements) as it deems necessary to
repair and correct any Emergency Condition, regardless whether such provisions
have been made in the Capital Budget or the Operating Budget and Annual Plan
for any such expenditures; or the cost thereof may be advanced by KAR and
reimbursed from future revenues. Design and installation of Capital
Replacements shall be effected in a time period and subject to such conditions
as the KAR may establish to minimize interference with or disruption of ongoing
operations.

4.12     CAPITAL REPLACEMENT RESERVE. KAR shall establish a Capital Replacement
Reserve on the books of account of the Enterprise, and the cash contributions
required by Section 4.13 shall be deposited by the KAR into an account (the
"Capital Replacement Reserve") established in SHINGLE SPRINGS's name at a bank
designated by the Tribal Council. All amounts in the Capital Replacement Reserve
shall be invested in interest bearing investments in accordance with the
Enterprise Investment Policy set forth in Exhibit C to this Agreement to the
extent that availability of funds, when required, is not thereby impaired.
Interest earned on amounts deposited in the Capital Replacement Reserve shall be
credited to the Capital Replacement Reserve and shall be available for payment
of expenditures for Capital Replacements to the Facility. KAR shall draw on the
Capital Replacement Reserve for Capital Replacements to purchase those items
included in the "Capital Budget" approved by the Tribal Council or such
emergency additions of replacements as shall be required to keep the Enterprise
in compliance with legal requirements or such emergency additions or
replacements necessary to protect the comfort, health, safety or welfare of the
Facility's guests or employees.

4.13      PERIODIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO CAPITAL REPLACEMENT RESERVE. Deposits into
the Capital Replacement Reserve Equivalent to an annual rate of 1% (one
percent) of Gross Revenues during the first two years of the Term of this
Agreement after the Commencement Date and equivalent to an annual rate of 2%
(two percent) of Gross Revenues during the remainder of the Term, and shall be
made monthly. The cash amounts required to be so deposited shall be calculated
and deposited into the Capital Replacement Reserve, in arrears, no later than
the twenty-first (21st) day of the month immediately following the month with
respect to which a deposit is made. If any adjustments of Gross Revenues is
made as a result of an audit or for other accounting reasons, a corresponding
adjustment in the Capital Replacement Reserve deposit shall be made. In
addition, all proceeds from the sale of capital items no longer needed for the
operation of the Enterprise, and the proceeds of any insurance received in
reimbursement

                                    25
<PAGE>   32
for any items previously paid for from the Capital Replacement Reserve, shall
be deposited into the Capital Replacement Reserve upon receipt, and said
Capital Replacement Reserve shall be an operating expense.

4.14 USE AND ALLOCATION OF CAPITAL REPLACEMENT RESERVE.     Any expenditures for
Capital Replacements which have been budgeted and previously approved may be
paid from the Capital Replacement Reserve without further written approval from
SHINGLE SPRINGS. Any amounts remaining in the Capital Replacement Reserve at the
close of any year shall be carried forward and retained in the Capital
Replacement Reserve until fully used. If amounts in the Capital Replacement
Reserve at the end of any year plus the anticipated contributions to the Capital
Replacement Reserve for the next ensuing year are not sufficient to pay for
Capital Replacements authorized by the Capital Budget for such ensuing year,
then additional funds, in the amount of the projected deficiency, may be
advanced by the KAR and reimbursed by the Enterprise from future revenues.

4.15 INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS.     KAR shall install systems for monitoring of
all funds (the "Internal Control Systems"), which systems shall comply with all
Legal Requirements included in SHINGLE SPRING's Minimum Internal Controls, and
shall be submitted to SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory Authority for written approval
in advance of implementation, which written approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. SHINGLE SPRINGS shall retain the right to review all Internal Control
Systems and any changes instituted to the Internal Control Systems of the
Enterprise. SHINGLE SPRINGS shall have the right to retain an auditor to review
the adequacy of the Internal Control Systems prior to the Commencement Date.
The cost of such review shall be a Pre-Opening Expense. Any changes in such
systems after the Commencement Date also shall be subject to review and written

11.  GROUNDS FOR TERMINATION.

     11.1  VOLUNTARY TERMINATION AND TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.  This Agreement may
     be terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.4.4, 10.1, 10.2,
     10.3, 10.4, and 10.5.

     11.2  VOLUNTARY TERMINATION.  This Agreement may be terminated upon the
     mutual written consent and written approval of the parties.

     11.3  TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.  Either party may terminate this Agreement if
     the other party commits or allows to be committed any Material Breach of
     this Agreement. A Material Breach of this Agreement means a failure of
     either party to perform any material duty or obligation on its part for any
     twenty (20) consecutive days after notice, and shall include, but not be
     limited to, those events identified as a Material Breach in this



                                       39
<PAGE>   46
Agreement and those events identified as an Event of Default in Article 12 of
the Development Agreement. Any action taken or the adoption of any statue or
ordinance that taxes, materially prejudices or materially adversely affects or
imposes additional costs or burdens on KAR's rights or duties under this
Agreement shall be a Material Breach of this Agreement. Neither party may
terminate this Agreement on grounds of Material Breach unless it has provided
written notice to the other party of its intention to declare a default and to
terminate this Agreement and the defaulting party thereafter fails to cure or
take steps to substantially cure the default within thirty (30) days following
receipt of such notice. During the period specified in the notice to terminate,
either party may submit the matter to arbitration under the dispute resolution
provisions of this Agreement at Section 16. The discontinuance or correction of
a Material Breach shall constitute a cure thereof.

This Agreement may be terminated due to insolvency of KAR. KAR shall be
conclusively presumed to have become insolvent if KAR can no longer perform its
financial obligations hereunder, or;

     (a)  has filed for relief under Title 11 of the United States Code or has
     suffered the filing of an involuntary petition under Title 11 which is not
     dismissed within one (1) year after filing;

     (b)  has a receiver appointed to take possession of all or substantially
     all of KAR's property; or

     (c)  has suffered an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

SHINGLE SPRINGS may also terminate this Agreement immediately where KAR has had
its license withdrawn because KAR, or a director or officer of KAR, has been
convicted of a criminal felony or misdemeanor offense in the performance of KAR
duties hereunder; provided, however, SHINGLE SPRINGS may not terminate this
Agreement based on a director or officer's conviction where KAR terminates such
individual within ten (10) days after receiving notice of the conviction.

In the event of any termination for cause, regardless of fault, the parties
shall retain all money previously paid to them pursuant to Section 6 of this
Agreement; and SHINGLE SPRINGS shall retain title to all Enterprise facility
fixtures, improvements, supplies, equipment, funds and accounts, subject to the
rights of KAR under any security agreement and to the right of KAR to any
accrued and unpaid Net Revenues due under Section 6 of this Agreement. KAR shall
continue to have the right to repayment of unpaid principal and interest and
other amounts due to KAR or outstanding and guaranteed by KAR and/or KAR's
Affiliates (if KAR is called on to pay under such guarantee) under the Note,
Loan Agreement and/or Security and Reimbursement Agreement and advances made by
KAR and interest thereon or any other agreements entered into pursuant hereto.

                                       40
<PAGE>   47
An election to pursue damages or to pursue specific performance of this
Agreement or other equitable remedies while this Agreement remains in effect
shall not preclude the injured party from providing notice of termination
pursuant to this Section 11.3. Neither shall termination preclude a suit for
damages.

11.4 INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION DUE TO CHANGES IN LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. It is the
understanding and intention of the parties that the establishment and operation
of the Enterprise shall conform to and comply with all Legal Requirements. If
during the term of this Agreement, the Enterprise of any material aspect of
Gaming is determined by the Congress of the United States, the Department of
the Interior of the United States of America, the NIGC, or the final judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful under federal law, the
obligations of the parties hereto shall cease, and this Agreement shall be of
no further force and effect, provided that:

     (i)  KAR shall have the rights described in Section 4.4.1 of this
     Agreement;

     (ii) KAR and SHINGLE SPRINGS shall retain all money previously paid to them
     pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement;

     (iii)  funds of the Enterprise in any Enterprise account shall be paid and
     distributed in Section 6 of this Agreement;

     (iv) any money loaned to SHINGLE SPRINGS by or guaranteed by KAR or KAR's
     Affiliates (to the extent KAR or its Affiliates have paid under such
     guarantee) or owed to KAR or its Affiliates pursuant to the Interim
     Promissory Note or Security and Reimbursement Agreement shall be repaid to
     KAR or its Affiliates in accordance with the terms thereof; and

     (v)  any money loaned to the Enterprise by SHINGLE SPRINGS shall be repaid
     in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or that Loan Agreement
     entered into when the advance was made.

     (vi) SHINGLE SPRINGS shall retain its interest in the title (and any lease)
     to all Enterprise assets, including all Fixtures, Supplies and Equipment,
     subject to the rights of KAR under the Security and Reimbursement Agreement
     and subject to any requirements of financing arrangements.

11.5 KAR'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE AGREEMENT. KAR may terminate this Agreement
by written notice effective upon receipt if:

     (i)  Any SHINGLE SPRINGS, State or Federal authority where written approval
     is required fails to approve this Agreement, the Development Agreement or
     any related agreements or otherwise objects to any of the material terms
     thereof.

                                       41
<PAGE>   48
     (ii)      KAR has been notified by any regulatory agency that the exercise
               of any performance by it of any obligation imposed by this
               Agreement, the Development Agreement or any related agreements
               will jeopardize the ability of KAR or any Affiliate to obtain or
               retain any license, permit or written approvals in other
               jurisdiction, and KAR is unable to immediately rectify any such
               complaint.

     (iii)     KAR has reason to believe that the exercise of any right or the
               performance by it or SHINGLE SPRINGS of any obligation imposed
               under this Agreement may reasonably be expected to result in the
               breach of any Legal Requirement and the parties have been unable
               to agree upon waiver of such right or performance within ten (10)
               days written notice by KAR.

     (iv)      Through its own actions, SHINGLE SPRINGS fails to make any
               payment to KAR when due within the time specified in this
               Agreement and a grace period of ten (10) days following written
               notice.

     (v)       The Development Agreement terminates, other than as a result of a
               default by KAR.

11.6      SHINGLE SPRING'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE AGREEMENT. SHINGLE SPRINGS may
terminate this Agreement by written notice effective upon receipt if:

     (i)       Any Federal or State authority, where written approval is
               required, fails to approve this Agreement or otherwise objects to
               the performance by KAR of any obligation imposed on it under this
               Agreement and KAR has not cured the circumstances giving rise to
               the failure to approve the objection with one hundred twenty
               (120).

     (ii)      SHINGLE SPRINGS has reason to believe that the performance by it
               or KAR of any obligation imposed under this Agreement may
               reasonably be expected to result in the breach of any Legal
               Requirement other than a Legal Requirement of the Tribe and the
               parties have been unable to agree upon waiver of such performance
               within twenty (20) days of written notice given by SHINGLE
               SPRINGS.

     (iii)     KAR fails to make any payment to SHINGLE SPRINGS when due,
               including but not limited to any Monthly Distribution Payment or
               any Minimum Monthly Priority Payment to SHINGLE SPRINGS within
               the time specified in this Agreement including any applicable
               grade period and a grace period of twenty (20) days after KAR's
               receipt of written notice of the amount due.

11.7      CONSEQUENCES OF KAR'S BREACH. In the event of the termination of this
Agreement by SHINGLE SPRINGS for cause under Section 11.3, KAR shall not,
except as provided in Section 11.3, have the right to its Management Fee from
the Enterprise accruing after the date of termination, but such termination
shall not affect KAR's right


                                       42



<PAGE>   49
relating to payment of the Management fees accruing through the date of
termination or repayment, recoupment and reimbursement of monies owed to KAR
and/or guaranteed by KAR and/or KAR's Affiliates under this Agreement, the
Development Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Interim Promissory Note
and the Security and Reimbursement Agreement or any other agreements entered
pursuant hereto. Any Net Revenues accruing through the date of termination shall
be distributed in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement. KAR and SHINGLE
SPRINGS acknowledge and agree that termination of this Agreement may not be a
sufficient or appropriate remedy for breach by KAR, and further agree that
pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, SHINGLE SPRINGS shall, upon
breach of this Agreement by the KAR, have the right to pursue such remedies (in
addition to termination) at law or equity as it determines are best able to
compensate it for such breach. KAR specifically acknowledges and agrees that
there may be irreparable harm to SHINGLE SPRINGS and that damages will be
difficult to determine if KAR commits a Material Breach, and KAR therefore
further acknowledges that an injunction and/or other equitable relief may be an
appropriate remedy for any such breach.

11.8  CONSEQUENCES OF SHINGLE SPRINGS BREACH. In the event of termination of
this Agreement by KAR for cause under Section 11.3, KAR shall not be required to
perform any further services under this Agreement and SHINGLE SPRINGS shall
indemnify and hold KAR and its Affiliates harmless against all liabilities of
any nature whatsoever relating to the Enterprise, but only insofar as these
liabilities result from acts within the control of SHINGLE SPRINGS or its agents
or from the termination of this Agreement. KAR and SHINGLE SPRINGS acknowledge
and agree that termination of this Agreement may not be a sufficient or
appropriate remedy for breach by SHINGLE SPRINGS, and further agree that subject
to the provisions of Section 17, KAR shall, upon breach of this Agreement by
SHINGLE SPRINGS, have the right to pursue such remedies, including, without
limitation, actions to require payment of the Management Fee pursuant to Section
6 for a term equal to the then remaining term of this Agreement at the
percentage of Net Revenues specified in Section 6. SHINGLE SPRINGS specifically
acknowledges and agrees that there may be irreparable harm to KAR and that
damages will be difficult to determine if SHINGLE SPRINGS commits a material
breach, and SHINGLE SPRINGS therefore further acknowledges that an injunction
and/or other equitable relief may be an appropriate remedy for any such breach.
In any event, KAR shall have the right to its Management Fee accruing through
the date of termination as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, and to the
repayment of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts due under the Note
from the Lender, Interim Note and any other note guaranteed by KAR or its
Affiliates, the Loan Agreement, and any other loans to SHINGLE SPRINGS, and the
Security and Reimbursement Agreement.

11.9  NOTICE AND OPPORTUNITY TO CURE. Except where SHINGLE SPRINGS's Gaming
Ordinance or SHINGLE SPRING's Regulatory Authority's regulations provide for an
emergency and immediate termination of KAR's license, SHINGLE SPRINGS will give
KAR notice of any alleged violation of SHINGLE SPRINGS Gaming Ordinance by KAR

                                       43
<PAGE>   50
     and thirty (30) days opportunity to cure before SHINGLE SPRINGS Regulatory
     Authority may take any action based on such alleged violation.

of this Agreement, KAR shall have the following rights and obligations:

     12.1  TRANSITION.  KAR shall take reasonable steps for the orderly
     transition of management of the Enterprise to SHINGLE SPRINGS or its
     designee pursuant to a transition plan and such transition period shall be
     for a reasonable period but not less than thirty (30) days.

     12.2  UNDISTRIBUTED NET REVENUES.  If the Enterprise has accrued Net
     Revenues which have not been distributed under Section 6 of this Agreement,
     KAR shall receive an amount that is equal to the Management Fee it would
     have received had the distribution occurred during the term of the
     Management Agreement.

     12.3  BUYOUT.  Following thirty six (36) contiguous months of KAR operating
     the permanent Class III Gaming Facility for SHINGLE SPRINGS, SHINGLE
     SPRINGS shall have the right to buy KAR out of the Management Agreement
     with SHINGLE SPRINGS for the sum of all the monies KAR earned as a
     management fee exclusive of repayment of any notes for the previous 36
     months multiplied times five.

13.  CONSENTS AND APPROVALS.

     13.1  SHINGLE SPRINGS. Where written approval or consent or other action of
     SHINGLE SPRINGS is required, such written approval shall mean the written
     approval of the Tribal Council evidenced by a resolution thereof, certified
     by a SHINGLE SPRINGS official as having been duly adopted, or, if provided
     by resolution of the Tribal Council, the written approval of SHINGLE
     SPRINGS Regulatory Authority, or such other person or entity designated by

     action shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; if no adverse written
     denial from the Tribal Council is given to KAR within seven (7) days of
     KAR's request, then the request shall be automatically approved provided
     that the foregoing does not apply where a specific provision of this
     Agreement allows SHINGLE SPRINGS an absolute right to deny written approval
     or consent or withhold action.

     13.2  KAR.  Where written approval or consent or other action of KAR is
     required, such written approval shall mean the written approval of KAR
     evidenced by a resolution thereof. Any such written approval, consent or

               fully with such investigations by an employee of KAR or an

               dismissal of such employee. The results of any such investigation
               may be disclosed by SHINGLE SPRINGS to federal officials and to
               such other regulatory authorities as required by law.

change in the information disclosed pursuant to this Section 14 it shall notify
SHINGLE SPRINGS of such change not later than thirty (30) days following the
change or within ten (10) days after it becomes aware of such change, whichever
is later. SHINGLE SPRINGS shall, in turn, provide the Secretary or the Interior
and/or the NIGC (whichever is applicable) copies of any such notifications. All
of the warranties and agreements contained in this Section 14 shall apply to
any person or entity who would be listed in this Section 14 as a result of
such changes.

14.5     BREACH OF KAR'S WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS. The material breach of any
warranty or agreement to KAR contained in this Section 14 shall be grounds for
immediate termination of this Agreement; provided that

          (a)   if a breach of the warranty contained in clause (ii) of Section
     14.2 is discovered, and such breach was not disclosed by any background
     check conducted by the NIGC or the FBI as part of the NIGC's or other
     federal written approval of this Agreement, or was discovered by the FBI
     investigation but all the non-offending officers and directors or KAR sign
     sworn affidavits that they had no knowledge of such breach, then KAR shall
     have thirty (30) days after notice from SHINGLE SPRINGS to terminate the
     interest of the offending person or entity and, if such termination takes
     place, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; and

          (b)   if a breach relates to a failure to update changes in financial
     position or additional gaming related activities, then KAR shall have
     thirty (30) days after notice from SHINGLE SPRINGS to cure such default
     prior to termination.

agreement related to the Loan Agreement, including the Security and

SPRINGS, and/or in the public records of the BIA, SHINGLE SPRINGS will
accomplish such recordation upon the request of KAR. KAR shall promptly
reimburse SHINGLE SPRINGS for all expenses, including attorney fees, incurred
as a result of such request. No such recordation shall waive SHINGLE SPRINGS's
sovereign immunity.

16.      NO PRESENT LIEN, LEASE OR JOINT VENTURE. The parties agree and
expressly warrant that neither the Management Agreement nor any exhibit thereto
is a mortgage or lease and, consequently, does not convey any present interest
whatsoever in the Facility or the Property, nor any proprietary interest in the
Enterprise itself. The parties further agree and acknowledge that it is not
their intent, and that this Agreement shall not be construed, to create a joint
venture between SHINGLE SPRINGS and KAR; rather, KAR shall be deemed to be an
independent contractor for all purposes hereunder.

17.      DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

                                       46
<PAGE>   53
17.1  GENERAL.  The parties agree that binding arbitration pursuant to this
Article 17 shall be the remedy for all disputes, controversies and claims
arising out of this Development Agreement, Management Agreement, the Note, Loan
Agreement, the Interim Promissory Note and the Security and Reimbursement
Agreement, any documents or agreements referenced by any of these documents,
any agreements collateral thereto, or any notice of termination thereof,
including without limitation, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of
any of these agreements. The parties intend that such arbitration shall provide
final and binding resolution of any dispute, and that action in any other forum
shall be brought only if necessary to compel arbitration, or to enforce an
arbitration award or order.

   (i)       Each party agrees that it will use its best efforts to negotiate
   an amicable resolution of any dispute between KAR and SHINGLE SPRINGS arising
   from this Agreement. If SHINGLE SPRINGS and KAR are unable to negotiate an
   amicable resolution of a dispute within fourteen (14) days from the date of
   notice of the dispute pursuant to the notice section of this Agreement, or
   such other period as the parties mutually agree in writing, either party may
   refer the matter to arbitration as provided herein.

   (ii)      SHINGLE SPRINGS's election to terminate this Agreement is,
   however, final and conclusive and not subject to dispute resolution between
   the parties, but only if the NIGC makes a final determination that KAR is not
   suitable to hold a license. The parties recognize that minor revisions of
   contracts before the NIGC is routine, and an NIGC notice requesting revisions
   in the Agreement shall not be grounds for termination by SHINGLE SPRINGS
   unless KAR refuses to make the changes necessary to obtain NIGC written
   approval.

17.2  ARBITRATION.

17.2.1  INITIATION OF ARBITRATION AND SELECTION OF ARBITRATORS.  Arbitration
shall be initiated by written notice by one party to the other pursuant to the
notice section of this Agreement, and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
American Arbitration Association shall thereafter apply. The arbitrators shall
have the power to grant equitable and injunctive relief and specific
performance as provided in this Agreement. If necessary, orders to compel
arbitration or enforce an arbitration award may be sought before the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of California and any federal
court having appellate jurisdiction over said court. If the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of California finds that it lacks
jurisdiction, SHINGLE SPRINGS consents to be sued in a Court of competent
jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive
damages. The arbitrator shall be a licensed attorney knowledgeable in federal
Indian law and be appointed pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the
American Arbitration Association. All initial arbitration or

                                       47

<PAGE>   54
judicial proceedings shall be instituted within twelve (12) months after the
claim accrues are shall be forever barred.

     (i)    CHOICE OF LAW. In determining any matter the Arbitrator shall apply
     the terms of this Agreement, without adding to, modifying or changing the
     terms in any respect, and shall apply federal and applicable State law.

     (ii)  PLACE OF HEARING. All arbitration hearings shall be held at a place
     designated by the arbitrator in Sacramento, California.

     (iii) CONFIDENTIALITY. The parties and the arbitrator(s) shall maintain
     strict confidentiality with respect to arbitration.

17.3 LIMITED WAIVER OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY. SHINGLE SPRINGS expressly and
irrevocably waives its immunity from suit as provided for and limited by this
Section. This waiver is limited to SHINGLE SPRINGS's consent to all arbitration
proceedings, and actions to compel arbitration and to enforce any awards or
orders issuing from such arbitration proceedings which are sought solely in
United States Court for the Eastern District of California and any federal court
having appellate jurisdiction over said court, provided that if the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of California finds that it lacks
jurisdiction, SHINGLE SPRINGS consents to be sued in a Court of competent
jurisdiction. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to grant any
waiver of Tribal sovereign immunity to any third party. The arbitrators shall
not have the power to award punitive damages.

     (i) TIME PERIOD. The waiver granted herein shall commence as of the
     Effective Date of this Agreement and the Development Agreement and shall
     continue for one year following expiration, termination or cancellation of
     this Agreement, or termination of the Enterprise whichever is earlier, but
     shall remain effective for the duration of any arbitration, litigation or
     dispute resolution proceedings then pending, all appeals therefrom, and
     except as limited by this Section, to the full satisfaction of any awards
     or judgments which may issue from such proceedings, provided that an
     action to collect such judgments has been filed within one year of the date
     of the final judgment. Provided however, all collection actions shall
     terminate six (6) years after the date of the final judgment.

     (ii) LIMITATIONS OF ACTIONS. This limited waiver is specifically limited to
     the following actions and judicial remedies:

          (a) DAMAGES. The enforcement of an arbitrator's award of money
          damages provided that the waiver does not extend beyond the assets
          specified in Subsection (g) of this Section. No arbitrator or court
          shall have any authority or jurisdiction to order execution against
          any assets or revenues of SHINGLE SPRINGS except as provide in this
          Section or to award any punitive damages against SHINGLE SPRINGS.

     determination by an arbitrator that prohibits SHINGLE SPRINGS from taking
     any action that would prevent KAR from operating the Business pursuant to
     the terms of this Agreement, or that requires SHINGLE SPRINGS to
     specifically perform any obligation under this Agreement (other than an
     obligation to pay money which is protected by Subsection (g) of this
     Section.

     (b)       ACTION TO COMPEL ARBITRATION. An action to compel or enforce
     arbitration or arbitration awards or orders pursuant to this Section.

     (c)       SERVICE OF PROCESS. In any litigation or arbitration service of
     process on SHINGLE SPRINGS shall be effective if made by certified mail
     return receipt requested to the Chairperson of SHINGLE SPRINGS at the
     Address set for in Section 9.2 herewith.

     (d)       ENFORCEMENT. If enforcement of a judicial order or arbitration
     award becomes necessary by reason of failure of one or both parties to
     voluntarily comply, the parties agree that the matter may be resolved by
     entry of judgment on the award and enforcement as described herein.
     Without in any way limiting or expanding the provisions of this Section,
     SHINGLE SPRINGS expressly authorizes any governmental authorities which
     may lawfully exercise the right and duty to take any action authorized or
     ordered by any court to whom its sovereign immunity is waived pursuant to
     this Section, including without limitation, entering the Property and
     Facility for the purpose of executing against any property subject to a
     security interest or otherwise giving effect to any judgment properly
     entered pursuant to this Section; provide however, that in no instance
     shall any enforcement of any kind whatsoever be allowed against any assets
     of SHINGLE SPRINGS other than the limited assets of SHINGLE SPRINGS
     Specified in Subsection (g) below.

     (e)       LIMITATION UPON ENFORCEMENT. Damages awarded against SHINGLE
     SPRINGS or the Enterprise shall be satisfied solely from the distributable
     share of Net Revenues of SHINGLE SPRINGS from the Enterprise and the Net
     Revenues of any other SHINGLE SPRINGS gaming business of the kind
     contemplated and the Net Revenues of any future gaming business of any kind

          operated by or for SHINGLE SPRINGS, whether or not operated under
          this Agreement, provided, however, that this limited waiver of
          sovereign immunity shall terminate with respect to the collection of
          any Net Revenues transferred from the accounts of any of these
          Businesses to SHINGLE SPRINGS or SHINGLE SPRINGS's bank account in
          the normal course of business. In no instance shall any enforcement
          of any kind whatsoever be allowed against any assets of SHINGLE
          SPRINGS other than those specified in this Subsection.

     17.4 PERFORMANCE DURING DISPUTES. Except where an Arbitrator concludes
     that operation by the KAR would violate applicable law or endanger the
     integrity of gaming, it is mutually agreed that during any kind of
     controversy, claim, disagreement or dispute, including a dispute as to the
     validity of this Agreement, KAR shall continue to possess the rights,
     duties, and obligations set forth in this Agreement, and SHINGLE SPRINGS
     and KAR shall continue their performance of the provisions of this

          reconstruction and such other riders or endorsements in such amounts
          as KAR may require in order to assure reconstruction of the Facility
          in the event of a casualty.

1.01.2  RESPONSIBILITY TO MAINTAIN. The obligation to maintain the insurance
policies required by the Management Agreement, the cost of which shall be an
Operating Expense and subject to the of the Management Agreement, shall lie
solely with KAR. During the budgeting process, KAR shall recommend to the
Tribal Council for its written approval a schedule setting forth the kinds and
amount of such insurance to be maintained by it during the ensuring policy year.

1.01.3  CHANGES IN COVERAGE. KAR shall have the right to raise the minimum
amount of insurance to be maintained with respect to the Facility under Section
1.01.1 and/or to require the insurance of additional risks, not specified
herein, in order to make such insurance compatible with prudent industry
standards (including consideration of the incremental cost thereof) and to
reflect increases in liability exposures, taking into account the size and
location of the Facility.

1.01.4  REQUIREMENTS. All policies of insurance shall, to the extent such
coverage is commercially available, be written on a "occurrence" basis. To the
extent that any insurance required hereby is or becomes available only on a
"claims made" basis, SHINGLE SPRINGS shall, as on Operating Expense, purchase
satisfactory extended reporting period endorsements to policies placed during
the term of the Management Agreement or, in the alternative, continue to insure
KAR as an additional insured party under policies of insurance placed after
termination of this Agreement until the expiration, without claim of all
applicable statutes of limitation as may be necessary to assure that KAR has
the benefit of the required insurance for causes of action arising out of
events occurring with respect to the Enterprise during the term of the
Management Agreement, whether or not any such claim is actually asserted prior
to the expiration or earlier termination thereof.

1.02.     POLICIES AND ENDORSEMENTS.

          1.02.1  POLICIES. All insurance coverage provided for under the
Management Agreement shall be effected by policies issued by insurance companies
authorized to do business in the state where the Enterprise is located that are
of good reputation and of sound and adequate financial responsibility, having an
A.M. Best's ("Best") Rating of B+ VII, or better or a comparable rating if Best
ceases to publish its rating or materially changes its rating standards or
procedures. KAR shall be entitled to object to an insurance company which meets
this standard, but only for reasonable cause based upon rates, claim experience,
and other similar pertinent considerations. The KAR shall deliver to SHINGLE
SPRINGS duplicate copies of the insurance policies or certificates of insurance
with respect to all of the policies of insurance so procured, including

                                       62
<PAGE>   69
existing, additional and renewal policies, and in the case of insurance about
to expire, shall deliver duplicate copies of the insurance policies or
certificates of insurance with respect to the renewal policies to KAR not less
than ten (10) business days prior to the respective dates of expiration.
Certificates or duplicate copies of insurance shall be sent to KAR and SHINGLE
SPRINGS at the addresses contained in the Notices Section of this Agreement.

          1.02.2 ENDORSEMENT. All policies of insurance provided for under the
Management Agreement shall, to the extent obtainable, have attached thereto (a)
an endorsement that such policy shall not be canceled or materially changed
without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to KAR, and (b) an
endorsement to the effect that no act or omission of SHINGLE SPRINGS or KAR,
other than nonpayment, after written notice thereof, of the premiums for such
policy, shall affect the obligation of the insurer to pay the full amount of any
loss sustained (but not to exceed, in any event, the policy limits). All
insurance policies required under clauses (e), (f), (j), (k), (m), and (n) of
Subsection 1.01.1, shall contain an endorsement to the effect that such
insurance shall be primary, not excess, and not contributory to any similar
insurance carried by KAR. Insurance carried under Subsections 1.01.1(i) through
and including (o) shall permit partial occupancy of the Facility prior to
Completion.

          1.02.3 ADDITIONAL INSURED. All policies of insurance required under
Subsection 1.01.1, shall be carried in the name of SHINGLE SPRINGS, and, if
required, name SHINGLE SPRINGS's mortgagees as additional insured, or, as
appropriate, mortgagees having the benefit of the standard New York form of
mortgagee endorsement. Losses thereunder shall be payable to the parties as
their respective interests may appear. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if SHINGLE
SPRINGS's first mortgagee is an Institutional Lender, and so requires, losses
under any fire or casualty policy may be made payable to such mortgagee, or to a
bank or trust company qualified to do business in the state where the Facility
is located, in either instance as trustee for the custody and disposition of the
proceeds therefrom. All liability policies shall name KAR, and in each case any
Affiliates which KAR may specify, and their respective directors, officers,
agents, employees, and partners as additional insured.

          1.03 WAIVER OF LIABILITY - FIRE & CASUALTY INSURANCE. To the extent
any loss is coverage by insurance proceeds actually paid or would be covered by
insurance required to be carried under this Agreement, but no otherwise, KAR and
SHINGLE SPRINGS each waive, release and discharge the other from all claims or
demands which each may have or acquire against the other, or against each
other's directors, officers, agents, employees, or partners, with respect to any
claims for any losses, damages, liability or expenses (including attorneys'
fees) incurred or sustained by either of them on account of damage to their
respective property (but not as to personal injury or property damage suffered
by third parties) arising out of the ownership, management, operation and
maintenance of the Facility, regardless whether any such claim or demand may
arise because of the fault or negligence of the other party or its officers,
partners, agents, and employees. Each policy of fire and property damage
insurance shall contain a specific

                                       63

<PAGE>   70
waiver of subrogation reflecting the provisions of this Section 1.03, or a
provision to the affect that the existence of the preceding waiver shall not
affect the validity of any such policy or the obligation of the insurer to pay
the full amount of any loss sustained. Although KAR shall be named as an
additional insured party under any primary liability insurance required to be
maintained for the Facility, it shall not be a requirement that any excess
liability insurance policy maintained by KAR contain a waiver of the insurer's
right of subrogation, and the waiver contained herein shall not apply as to any
losses insured and paid pursuant to such policies.
