Item 8.01.              Other Events.

On November 16, 2009, Nevada Gaming Ventures, Inc. (“NGVI”), an indirect subsidiary of Penn National Gaming, Inc. (“Penn”), entered into both (a) a “stalking horse” Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Stalking Horse Agreement”) by and among Fontainebleau Las Vegas Holdings, LLC (“Resort Holdings”), Fontainebleau Las Vegas, LLC (“Resort”), Fontainebleau Las Vegas Capital Corp. (“Resort Capital” and, together with Resort Holdings and Resort, the “Resort Sellers”), Fontainebleau Las Vegas Retail Parent, LLC (“Retail Holdings”), Fontainebleau Las Vegas Retail Mezzanine, LLC (“Retail Mezzanine”), Fontainebleau Las Vegas Retail, LLC (“Retail” and, together with Retail Holdings and Retail Mezzanine, the “Retail Sellers,” and, together with the Resort Sellers, the “Sellers”) and NGVI, and (b) a Debtor-In-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”) among Resort Holdings, Resort, Resort Capital, the Lenders party thereto and NGVI.

Each of the Resort Sellers is a debtor in a chapter 11 case before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”), and each of the Retail Sellers has agreed to commence cases under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code by filing voluntary petitions for relief with the Bankruptcy Court.  Together, the Sellers own the assets comprising the unfinished hotel, resort and casino known as the Fontainebleau Las Vegas (the “Project”).

The effectiveness of the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement are subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court.  If the agreements are so approved, NGVI will be designated as the “stalking horse” bidder in an auction of the Project pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  As the stalking horse bidder, NGVI’s offer to purchase the Project, as set forth in the Stalking Horse Agreement, would be the standard by which any other bids to purchase the Project will be evaluated. Other interested bidders who submit qualifying offers would be permitted to participate in the auction of the Project.  The Sellers have agreed to request that the Bankruptcy Court set January 15, 2010 as the deadline for other bids and schedule the auction for January 21, 2010.

Pursuant to the DIP Credit Agreement, if approved, NGVI will be committed to provide Resort with a revolving credit facility of approximately $51.5 million through February 9, 2010, subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain events.  The DIP Credit Agreement requires Resort to spend any borrowings it makes under the DIP Credit Agreement to stabilize the unfinished buildings at the Project and on other budgeted expenses.

Pursuant to the Stalking Horse Agreement, if approved, NGVI will agree, absent any higher or otherwise better bid, to acquire the Project from the Sellers (the “Purchase”) for (i) $50 million in cash (subject to reduction for certain remediation costs, among other adjustments), and (ii) the release of the Sellers, at the closing of the Purchase, from any outstanding obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement.  Consummation of the Purchase would be subject to customary conditions to closing, including receipt of Bankruptcy Court approvals.  If the Bankruptcy Court approves the Stalking Horse Agreement, then, upon termination of the agreement in certain circumstances — including the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of a competing transaction, a default by the Sellers under specified provisions of the DIP Credit Agreement or the failure of the parties to meet certain procedural deadlines — the Sellers would be required to pay NGVI a termination fee equal to 3% of (a) $50 million plus (b) the amount of the Sellers’ outstanding obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement at the time of termination.

The foregoing descriptions of the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this report, respectively, and are incorporated into this report by reference.  The Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement have been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding their respective terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about NGVI, the Sellers or their respective subsidiaries

2

and affiliates. Each agreement contains representations and warranties by NGVI, on the one hand, and by certain Sellers, on the other hand, made solely for the benefit of the other. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties are qualified by information in applicable disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection with signing the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement were made as of a specified date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from what might be viewed as material to shareholders, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between NGVI, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Stalking Horse Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement are not necessarily characterizations of the actual state of facts about NGVI or the Sellers at the time they were made or otherwise and should only be read in conjunction with the other information that NGVI or the Sellers file with the Bankruptcy Court or that Penn makes publicly available in reports, statements and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward-looking Statements

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 related to the auction of the Project.  Actual results may vary materially from expectations.  These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from expectations including, but are not limited to, rulings of the Bankruptcy Court.  Penn does not intend to update publicly any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

  (xv)                      the “Unused Cash Collateral” (as defined in the DIP Order); and

 (xvi)                      any cash in the “Completion Guaranty Proceeds Account” (as defined in that certain Master Disbursement Agreement, dated as of June 6, 2007, by and among Resort Holdings, Resort Capital, Retail, Resort, Old Resort II, Bank of America, N.A., as the initial Bank Agent, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as the initial Trustee, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., as the initial Retail Agent and Bank of America, N.A, as the initial Disbursement Agent).

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Sellers may, in their sole and absolute discretion, at any time on or prior to the date that is five Business Days before the Closing Date elect not to sell the Retail Real Property, in which event the Retail Real Property shall be extinguished in its entirety pursuant to the Sale Order as of the Closing (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that from and after such event the Specified Retail Agreements shall be Eliminated Agreements and the Retail Real Property shall be an Excluded Asset) (the election described in this Section 2.2(b), the “Section 2.2(b) Election”).

(c)                                  The Parties acknowledge that Purchaser and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives may engage in discussions with Persons to whom Excluded Deposits previously have been paid or with whom Excluded Deposits have otherwise been made (such Persons, “Excluded Deposit Counterparties”), for purposes of obtaining services or products or materials from such Persons in connection with the completion of the Project.  Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives not to, assert or affirmatively suggest to any Excluded Deposit Counterparty in any such discussions that Purchaser or such Excluded Deposit Counterparty is entitled to payment of or credit for all or any portion of such Excluded Deposit.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not have any Liability in connection with any Seller’s inability to obtain a refund of, or otherwise obtain any value from (whether as a set-off or defense to a Claim by an Excluded Deposit Counterparty or otherwise), any Excluded Deposit (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that this sentence shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under the preceding sentence).

(d)                                 The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to determine as promptly as practicable whether any Person to whom a TWC Deposit previously has been paid or with whom a TWC Deposit has otherwise been made (any such Person, a “TWC Counterparty”) owns any products or materials intended for use at or in connection with the Project, whether held at the Project site or otherwise (any such products or materials, “TWC Counterparty Products”).  The Sellers shall, if and to the extent so directed by Purchaser, use commercially reasonable efforts to apply each TWC Deposit to purchase TWC Counterparty Products from the applicable TWC Counterparty in the name of the Sellers, whereupon such TWC Counterparty Products shall become Purchased Assets.  On the date that is five Business Days before the Closing Date, the

24

Parties shall (i) revise Schedule 2.1(e)(i) of the Disclosure Letter to eliminate therefrom (w) any TWC Deposit to the extent that such TWC Deposit has been applied as of such date to purchase TWC Counterparty Products, (x) if any TWC Deposit has been applied as of such date to purchase all of the TWC Counterparty Products owned by the applicable TWC Counterparty, any portion of such TWC Deposit that remains after such purchase, (y) any TWC Deposit made with a TWC Counterparty that does not own any TWC Counterparty Products and (z) any TWC Deposit to the extent that, on or prior to such date, the Purchaser has consented in writing to the elimination of such TWC Deposit or portion thereof from Schedule 2.1(e)(i) of the Disclosure Letter and (ii) revise Schedule 2.2(a)(viii) of the Disclosure Letter to add thereto any TWC Deposit to the extent eliminated from Schedule 2.1(e)(i) of the Disclosure Letter in accordance with clause (i)(x), (i)(y) or (i)(z) of this sentence, whereupon such TWC Deposit shall (to the extent so added) become an Excluded Deposit for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e)                                  On the date that is five Business Days before the Closing Date, the Parties shall (i) revise Schedule 2.1(e)(i) of the Disclosure Letter to eliminate therefrom any Deposit listed therein that was made pursuant to an Eliminated Agreement and (ii) revise Schedule 2.2(a)(viii) of the Disclosure Letter to add thereto any such Deposit, whereupon such Deposit shall become an Excluded Deposit for all purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.3                                   Condition of Conveyance.  Without limiting the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement or any other provisions of this Agreement relating to the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery of the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Assets shall be sold, transferred, assigned, conveyed and delivered by the Sellers to the Purchaser by appropriate instruments of transfer, bills of sale, endorsements, assignments and deeds, in recordable form as appropriate, and otherwise all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Sellers, and free and clear of any and all Encumbrances of any and every kind, nature and description, other than Permitted Encumbrances.

Section 2.4                                   Purchase Price; Remediation Escrow Fund.  In consideration for the Purchased Assets, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement:

(a)                                  the Purchaser shall deposit the Auction Deposit into a segregated bank account upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Bid Procedures and of this Agreement, if and when required;

(b)                                 at the Closing the Purchaser shall:

  (i)                               assume the Assumed Liabilities,

 (ii)                               pay to the Sellers an amount equal to the Closing Cash Payment,

(iii)                               release the Sellers from any Obligations to the Purchaser and cause the release of the Sellers from any Obligations to any other DIP Facility Lender, if any, and

(iv)                              if a Remediation Dispute Notice has been delivered in accordance with Section 2.5, deposit with the Remediation Escrow Agent an amount in cash equal to (x) the Remediation Amount, less (y) the greater of (1) the Seller Remediation Amount

25

Estimate and (2) $2,000,000 (such deposited amount, together with all interest thereon, the “Remediation Escrow Fund”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Remediation Escrow Agreement and of this Agreement, which Remediation Escrow Fund shall be distributed in accordance with Section 2.5 of this Agreement and the Remediation Escrow Agreement; and

(c)                                  the Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers the Contingent Payment, if and when due, in accordance with Section 2.10.

Section 2.5                                   Remediation Amount.

(a)                                  The Inspection Team (i) (x) shall begin, no later than three Business Days after being so directed by the Purchaser and in any event no later than one Business Day after the date on which the Sale Procedures Order is entered (and Purchaser shall notify the Sellers and the Examiner promptly after the First Inspection begins), an inspection of the Real Property (the “First Inspection”) for the purpose of determining the physical condition thereof, and (y) shall provide a reasonably detailed written report regarding the results of the First Inspection (the “First Inspection Report”) to the Parties and the Examiner within fifteen Business Days of the date on which the First Inspection begins and no later than January 8, 2010, and (ii) (x) shall begin, no later than three Business Days after being so directed by the Purchaser (and Purchaser shall notify the Sellers and the Examiner promptly after the Second Inspection begins), a second inspection of the Real Property (the “Second Inspection” and, together with the First Inspection, the “Inspections”) for the purpose of determining the physical condition thereof and estimating the costs, fees and expenses of remediation and repair of any damage or deterioration that may occur to the Purchased Assets during the period beginning on (and including) the date hereof and ending on (and including) the date on which the Second Inspection Report is delivered (such costs, fees and expenses, the “Remediation Costs”, and the Inspection Team’s calculation of the aggregate amount thereof, the “Remediation Amount”), and (y) shall provide a reasonably detailed written report regarding the results of the Second Inspection, including the calculation of the Remediation Costs and of the Remediation Amount (the “Second Inspection Report”), to the Parties and the Examiner within fifteen Business Days of the date on which the Second Inspection begins and no later than five Business Days before the Closing Date.  The Thalden Team shall lead the Inspection Team for all purposes of this Agreement.  In the event of any dispute amongst members of the Inspection Team as to any matter in connection with the Inspections, including the calculation of the Remediation Amount or any part thereof (but other than in respect of the non-reliance letter referred to below), the decision of the Thalden Team shall control and shall constitute the decision of the Inspection Team.  The Inspections shall be performed utilizing the inspection methods and procedures set forth in Schedule 2.5 of the Disclosure Letter.  The Sellers shall pay and shall be responsible for all of the costs, fees and expenses of the Inspection Team (including the Thalden Team).  The First Inspection Report shall be provided to each “Qualified Bidder” (as defined in the Bidding Procedures), for informational purposes only, upon execution by such Qualified Bidder of a non-reliance letter in favor of the Parties and the Inspection Team in form and substance satisfactory to each of the Parties and each member of the Inspection Team.

(b)                                 If there exists a Material Adverse Effect described in clause (x) of the second sentence of the definition thereof (a “Remediation Material Adverse Effect”), the

26

Purchaser may deliver a written notice to the Sellers at any time on or prior to the date that is two Business Days after the delivery of the Second Inspection Report stating that Purchaser is terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c) as a result of such Remediation Material Adverse Effect (a “Remediation Termination Notice”).  If, following the delivery of a Remediation Termination Notice, the Sellers believe in good faith that there is not a Material Adverse Effect described in clause (x) of the second sentence of the definition thereof (substituting for this purpose only “Seller Remediation Amount Estimate” for “Remediation Amount” in such clause (x)), the Sellers may deliver a written notice to the Purchaser at any time on or prior to the date that is two Business Days after the delivery of the Remediation Termination Notice stating that the Sellers elect to require the Purchaser to consummate the Closing (a “Seller Closing Election Notice”), in which case (i) the Parties shall be deemed to have agreed to the withdrawal of the Remediation Termination Notice, (ii) the Remediation Material Adverse Effect shall be deemed not to give rise to an inaccuracy in the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1(t), and accordingly such Remediation Material Adverse Effect shall not give rise to a failure of the condition set forth in Section 6.1(b)(i) or to a termination right under Section 8.1(c), (iii) the Parties shall consummate the Closing on the Closing Date unless there is a failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 (other than a failure arising from a Remediation Material Adverse Effect) or the Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 (for a reason other than the existence of a Remediation Material Adverse Effect), (iv) the Parties’ dispute with respect to Remediation Costs shall be resolved in accordance with Section 2.5(c) and (v) the $10,000,000 limit in the proviso to clause (iii) of the definition of “Closing Cash Payment” shall not apply.  If the Sellers do not deliver a Seller Closing Election Notice on or prior to the date that is two Business Days after the delivery of the Remediation Termination Notice, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(c) on the date that is three Business Days after the delivery of the Remediation Termination Notice.

(c)           As promptly as practicable after the date of delivery of the Second Inspection Report, but in no event later than two Business Days before the Closing Date, the Sellers shall (for the avoidance of doubt, whether or not a Remediation Material Adverse Effect exists) deliver to the Purchaser a written statement (a “Remediation Dispute Notice”) setting forth their good faith objections, if any, to the calculation of the Remediation Amount, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any objection that any of the costs, fees or expenses included therein do not constitute Remediation Costs as defined in this Agreement because they relate to the remediation or repair of damage or deterioration that occurred prior to the date hereof (such disputed costs, fees or expenses included in the Remediation Amount, the “Disputed Remediation Costs”, and the Inspection Team’s calculation of each Disputed Remediation Cost, an “Inspection Team Disputed Remediation Cost Calculation”).  The Remediation Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of any such objection, including the Sellers’ assertion as to the correct calculation of each such Disputed Remediation Cost and of the aggregate amount of the Remediation Costs (a “Seller Disputed Remediation Cost Calculation” and the “Seller Remediation Amount Estimate”, respectively).  The Sellers may not deliver a Remediation Dispute Notice unless the Remediation Amount is more than $2,000,000.  If the Sellers do not deliver a Remediation Dispute Notice on or prior to the day that is two Business Days before the Closing Date, the Remediation Amount shall be the “Final Remediation Amount” and shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement.  If the Sellers deliver a Remediation Dispute Notice to the Purchaser on or

27

prior to the day that is two Business Days before the Closing Date, then any calculation of Remediation Costs set forth in the Second Inspection Report to which the Sellers do not object in the Remediation Dispute Notice shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement (the aggregate amount of the Remediation Costs set forth in the Second Inspection Report not disputed in a Remediation Dispute Notice, the “Undisputed Remediation Amount”), and the Sellers and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the amount of the Disputed Remediation Costs.  If the Sellers and the Purchaser are unable to reach agreement on any such Disputed Remediation Costs within thirty days after the delivery of the Remediation Dispute Notice, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall refer any such dispute to a nationally recognized construction consulting firm reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Sellers (the “Remediation Auditor”) for resolution and (A) each of the Purchaser and the Sellers shall have a reasonable opportunity to meet with the Remediation Auditor to provide their views to the Remediation Auditor with respect to such Disputed Remediation Costs, (B) each of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall provide the other with copies of any information provided to the Remediation Auditor and shall not meet or communicate with the Remediation Auditor except in the presence of a Representative of the other and (C) the Remediation Auditor shall be instructed to deliver to the Purchaser and the Sellers within 30 days of such referral a written statement (the “Remediation Auditor’s Statement”) setting forth the Remediation Auditor’s calculation in accordance with this Agreement of the amount of each Disputed Remediation Cost (the Remediation Auditor’s calculation of each Disputed Remediation Cost, a “Finally Determined Remediation Cost”).  In calculating the Finally Determined Remediation Costs (the aggregate amount thereof, the “Finally Determined Remediation Cost Aggregate”), (x) the Auditor shall be limited to addressing the Disputed Remediation Costs referred to in the Remediation Dispute Notice and (y) any Finally Determined Remediation Cost shall be no less than the applicable Seller Disputed Remediation Cost Calculation and no more than the applicable Inspection Team Disputed Remediation Cost Calculation.  The Finally Determined Remediation Costs shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement and the “Final Remediation Amount” shall be an amount equal to the Undisputed Remediation Amount plus the Finally Determined Remediation Cost Aggregate.  The Purchaser will be responsible for and will pay a percentage of the costs, fees and expenses of the Remediation Auditor equal to (1) the Post-Closing Remediation True-Up (as defined below) divided by (2) the amount of the Remediation Escrow Fund immediately prior to the release thereof pursuant to Section 2.5(d), and the Sellers will be responsible for and will pay all remaining costs, fees and expenses of the Remediation Auditor.  For the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in Section 2.5(b), the pendency of a dispute with respect to Remediation Costs shall not affect the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI or the provisions of Article VIII.  The provisions of Section 2.5(b) and (c) shall be the sole remedy of the Parties with respect to any dispute in connection with the Final Remediation Purchase Price Adjustment or a Remediation Material Adverse Effect.

(d)           Promptly after the date on which the Final Remediation Amount is determined pursuant to this Section 2.5 (the “Final Remediation Determination Date”), and in any event within two Business Days of the Final Remediation Determination Date, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Remediation Escrow Agent pursuant to the Remediation Escrow Agreement directing the release from the Remediation Escrow Fund (i) to the Sellers of an amount (the “Post-Closing Remediation True-Up”) equal to the amount, if

28

any, by which (x) the Remediation Amount exceeds (y) the greater of (A) the Final Remediation Amount and (B) $2,000,000, together with interest thereon accrued pursuant to the Remediation Escrow Agreement and (ii) to the Purchaser the remainder of the Remediation Escrow Fund.

(e)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that (i) the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receives hereunder as Purchased Assets, whether at or after the Closing, any Insurance Proceeds from a third-party insurer as compensation for any costs, fees or expenses included in the Final Remediation Amount, and (ii) the amount of such Insurance Proceeds plus the Final Remediation Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds the Final Remediation Amount, the Purchaser shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Sellers, and pay to the Sellers promptly after the later of the receipt of such Insurance Proceeds and the Final Remediation Determination Date, an amount equal to such excess; provided, that the Purchaser shall not be required to hold in trust, or to pay to the Sellers, an amount in excess of the Final Remediation Purchase Price Adjustment.

Section 2.6            Assumption of Liabilities.

(a)           Pursuant to the Sale Order and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Purchaser hereby agrees to assume at the Closing, and agrees to pay, perform and discharge when due from and after the Closing, the Assumed Liabilities, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and from and after the Closing the Sellers (and each of them) shall have no Liability therefor or in connection therewith.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Assumed Liabilities” shall mean only the following Liabilities (to the extent not paid at or prior to the Closing):

  (i)          any Liabilities with respect to the Project and the Purchased Assets only to the extent such Liabilities relate to the development of the Project and the ownership of the Purchased Assets from and after the Closing or the operation of the Project from and after the completion thereof, but, in each case, only to the extent such Liabilities arise from and after the Closing;

 (ii)          the Liabilities of the Sellers arising under the Assumed Contracts, the Specified Contracts, the Assumed Leases, the Specified Insurance Policies and the Real Property, but, in each case, only to the extent such Liabilities arise from and after the Closing (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Cure Costs shall be Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(iii) regardless of when such Cure Costs arise);

(iii)          all Transfer Costs and Cure Costs; and

(iv)          all Liabilities arising out of the environmental matters described on Schedule 4.1(l) of the Disclosure Letter;

and excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Liabilities.  For further avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.6 shall not require the Purchaser to assume any Liability of any Person that is not a Seller.

29

(b)           From and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Seller and such Seller’s Affiliates and the Representatives of each Seller and such Seller’s Affiliates from and against any Claims resulting or arising from any Assumed Liabilities.

Section 2.7            Excluded Liabilities.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser shall not assume, and shall be deemed not to have assumed, any Liabilities of the Sellers other than the Assumed Liabilities (all such other Liabilities, the “Excluded Liabilities”), and the Purchaser shall have no Liability therefor or in connection therewith.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Liabilities shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following:

  (i)          all Liabilities arising out of Excluded Assets, including the Excluded Agreements;

 (ii)          (A) Taxes imposed with respect to the Project, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities for any taxable period (or portion thereof) that ends on or prior to the Closing Date, (B) Taxes imposed with respect to the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities for any taxable period, (C) except for (x) Transfer Taxes imposed with respect to the transfer of the Real Property and other Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement, the allocation of which shall be governed by Section 7.4(a), and (y) Property Taxes for Straddle Periods, the allocation of which shall be governed by Section 7.4(c), Taxes imposed on or payable by the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates for any taxable period, (D) any Liability of the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates for Taxes of any other Person by reason of contract, assumption, transferee liability, operation of law, or otherwise and (E) the Nevada Sales Tax Liabilities;

(iii)          all Liabilities of any Seller arising under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(iv)          without limiting paragraph (i) above all Liabilities arising out of, relating to, or with respect to any Seller Benefit Plan (including any Seller Benefit Plan which is an “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA), any Employment Agreement (other than any Employment Agreement that is an Assumed Contract, if any) and any Labor Agreement;

 (v)          other than Liabilities arising after the Closing (A) under the Assumed Contracts transferred to and assumed by the Purchaser at the Closing or (B) related to any Transferred Employee in respect of services from and after the commencement of such Transferred Employee’s employment with the Purchaser, all Liabilities or Claims arising out of, relating to or with respect to the employment or performance of services for, or termination of employment or services for, or potential employment or engagement for the performance of services for, any Seller or any Seller’s Affiliates, or any predecessor thereof or any individual Person or any Person acting as a professional employer organization, employee leasing company or providing similar services at or prior to the Closing (including as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement),

  (vi)        all Liabilities of the Sellers with respect to any Excluded Employee with respect to any period;

 (vii)        except for Assumed Liabilities set forth in Section 2.6(a)(ii), any Liability (A) of a Seller or (B) which relates to or encumbers any Purchased Assets or the Project, in each case that is owed to any Affiliate of a Seller;

(viii)        any Liability of a Seller relating to the Purchased Assets or the Project related to facts or actions occurring or accruing prior to the Closing that is not expressly included among the Assumed Liabilities;

  (ix)         all Liabilities of the Sellers for indebtedness for borrowed money, under conditional sale or title retention agreements, capitalized lease obligations (except for any capitalized lease obligations that are or are pursuant to Assumed Leases, if any), under interest rate, currency or other hedging transactions and all guarantees and arrangements having the economic effect of a guarantee of any of the foregoing of any other Person;

  (xi)         the “Mechanics’ Liens” (as defined in the DIP Facility);

 (xii)         any Liability with respect to any Seller Broker Fee; and

31

Section 2.8            Procedures for Assumption of Agreements; Delayed Transfer of Assets.

(a)           At the Closing, the Sellers shall assume and assign to Purchaser the Assumed Contracts and Assumed Leases, in each case pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Sale Order, subject to Purchaser’s provision of adequate assurance as may be required under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.  In connection with such assumption and assignment, the Purchaser shall, on the Closing Date, cure all defaults under such Assumed Contracts and Assumed Leases to the extent required by Section 365(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (the amounts required to effect such cure, “Cure Costs”) and otherwise satisfy all requirements imposed by Section 365(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to each Assumed Contract and Assumed Lease.

(b)           Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery of any Purchased Asset that by operation of Applicable Law or by failure to obtain a required Consent cannot be transferred, assigned, conveyed, delivered or assumed.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery or attempted sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery to the Purchaser of any asset, property or right that would be a Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom is prohibited by any Applicable Law or would require any Consent from any Governmental Authority or any other third party and such Consents shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, the Closing shall proceed without the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery of such asset, property or right unless there is a failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Article VI, in which event the Closing shall proceed only if each such failed condition is waived by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof.  In the event that there is not a failure of any condition set forth in Article VI or any failed condition is waived and the Closing proceeds without the transfer or assignment of any such asset, property or right as provided in this Agreement, then following the Closing, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain promptly such Consent.  Pending such Consent, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in any mutually agreeable arrangement designed to provide Purchaser with all of the benefits of use of such asset, property or right and to the Sellers the benefits, including any indemnities, that they would have obtained had the asset, property or right been conveyed to Purchaser at the Closing.  Once Consent for the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or delivery of any such asset, property or right not sold, transferred, assigned, conveyed or delivered at the Closing is obtained, the Sellers shall promptly transfer, assign, convey and deliver such asset, property or right to Purchaser at no additional cost.  To the extent that any such asset, property or right cannot be transferred or the full benefits or use of any such asset, property or right cannot be provided to Purchaser following the Closing pursuant to this Section 2.8(b), then the Purchaser and the Sellers shall enter into commercially reasonable arrangements (including subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) to provide to the Parties hereto the economic (taking into account Tax costs and benefits) and functional equivalent, to the extent permitted, of obtaining such Consent.  The Sellers shall hold in trust for, and pay to Purchaser promptly upon receipt thereof, all income, proceeds and other monies received by the Sellers derived from their use of any asset, property or right that would be a Purchased Asset in connection with the arrangements under this Section 2.8(b).

(c)           Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the assumption of any Assumed Liability that by operation of Applicable Law or by failure to obtain a required Consent cannot be assumed.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the

32

assumption or attempted assumption by the Purchaser (and/or the related indemnification or release of any Seller) of any Liability that would be an Assumed Liability or any claim or obligation arising thereunder or resulting therefrom is prohibited by any Applicable Law or would require any Consent from any Governmental Authority or any other third party and such Consent shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, the Closing shall proceed without the assumption of such Liability unless there is a failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Article VI, in which event the Closing shall proceed only if each such failed condition is waived by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof.  In the event that there is not a failure of any condition set forth in Article VI or any failed condition is waived and the Closing proceeds without the assumption of any such Liability as provided in this Agreement, then following the Closing, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain promptly such Consent.  Pending such Consent, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in any mutually agreeable arrangement designed to provide Sellers with all of the benefits, and the Purchaser with all of the obligations, of such Liabilities, including any releases and/or indemnities, that they would have obtained had the Liability been assumed by the Purchaser at the Closing.  Once Consent for the assumption of such Liability not assumed at the Closing is obtained, the Purchaser shall promptly assume such Liability at no additional cost.  To the extent that any such Liability cannot be assumed by the Purchaser or the full obligations of the Purchaser and benefits to the Sellers in connection with such assumption of Liability cannot be provided following the Closing pursuant to this Section 2.8(c), then the Purchaser and the Sellers shall enter into commercially reasonable arrangements (including release, indemnity and/or subcontracting) to provide to the Parties hereto the economic (taking into account Tax costs and benefits) and functional equivalent, to the extent permitted, of obtaining such Consent.

(d)           If following the Closing, a Seller receives or becomes aware that it holds any asset, property or right which constitutes a Purchased Asset then such Seller shall transfer such asset, property or right to the Purchaser as promptly as practicable for no additional consideration.

(e)           If following the Closing, the Purchaser receives or becomes aware that it holds any asset, property or right which constitutes an Excluded Asset, then the Purchaser shall transfer such asset, property or right to the Sellers as promptly as practicable for no additional consideration.

Section 2.9            Eliminated Assumed Contracts and Assumed Leases.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser may, in its sole and absolute discretion, amend or revise Schedule 1.2(a) or Schedule 1.2(b) of the Disclosure Letter setting forth the Assumed Contracts and the Assumed Leases in order to eliminate any Contract or Lease set forth therein (other than any Contract or Lease set forth in Part I of Schedule 1.2(a) or Part I of Schedule 1.2(b), respectively, of the Disclosure Letter, which may not be eliminated from Schedule 1.2(a) or Schedule 1.2(b), respectively, pursuant to this Section 2.9) at any time on or prior to the date that is five Business Days before the Auction.  Automatically upon the deletion of any Contract or Lease from Schedule 1.2(a) or Schedule 1.2(b) of the Disclosure Letter, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.9, it shall be an Eliminated Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement.

33

Section 2.10         Contingent Payment.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the Completion Costs shall be expended and the Project shall be completed and developed in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, which discretion shall not be bound by the Completion Cost Projections in any way, and none of the Sellers, any lender to or creditor or direct or indirect equityholder of any Seller, or any other Person, shall have any right to control, approve, oversee or otherwise have any input into any expenditure of Completion Costs or any aspect of the completion or development of the Project, whether as to quality of materials or otherwise (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that this Section 2.10(a)(i) shall not prevent Sellers from exercising their rights to dispute the Purchaser’s calculation of the Completion Amount in accordance with Sections 2.10(c) and (d)), (ii) the Purchaser shall have no obligation to complete or develop the Project and (iii) no Contingent Payment shall be due (x) if a hotel, casino and entertainment resort is not built at the Real Property or (y) if all or a material part of the Purchased Assets are sold or otherwise transferred to any Person or Persons (other than Affiliates of Purchaser) (except for a Contingent Payment payable in connection with a Third-Party Sale pursuant to Section 2.10(e)(ii), if due).

(b)           No later than 60 days after the date on which the Purchaser has prepared a preliminary budget for the completion and development of the Project (the “Completion Cost Projection Date”), the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers a written statement (the “Completion Cost Projections”) setting forth (i) in reasonable detail (x) the Purchaser’s calculation of the amount of the Completion Costs incurred through the Completion Cost Projection Date and (y) a projection of the estimated Completion Costs expected to be incurred after the Completion Cost Projection Date and (ii) the date on which (or range of dates within which) Purchaser anticipates that the Project will open for business to the general public.  Until the Completion Amount Statement is delivered, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers, no later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Penn that begins after the delivery of the Completion Cost Projections, an update of the Completion Cost Projections as of the end of such fiscal quarter.  The Completion Cost Projections and any update thereof (x) need not set forth any projected Completion Costs that are not reasonably estimable at the time the Completion Cost Projections or update thereof is being prepared or any Transaction-Related Completion Costs (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Completion Costs described in this clause (x) shall constitute Completion Costs whether or not set forth in the Completion Cost Projections or in any update thereof) and (y) shall be for informational purposes only and shall not in any way affect the other provisions of this Section 2.10 (it being agreed, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, that the failure to include any Completion Costs in the Completion Cost Projections or any update thereof shall not preclude Purchaser from including such Completion Costs in the Completion Amount).

(c)           No later than 60 days after the earlier to occur of (x) the third anniversary of the date on which the Project opens for business to the general public (such third anniversary, the “Measurement Date”) and (y) the date on which the Purchaser consummates a sale of all of the Real Property and all or substantially all of the other Purchased Assets to any Person or group of affiliated Persons (other than Affiliates of Purchaser), provided that such transaction is consummated prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date (such transaction consummated prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, a “Third-Party Sale”, and the date on which the

34

Third-Party Sale is consummated, the “Third-Party Sale Date”), as applicable, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers a written statement (the “Completion Amount Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail the Purchaser’s calculation of the amount of the Completion Costs and of the Contingent Payment (the “Completion Amount” and the “Purchaser Contingent Payment Calculation”, respectively).  From the date of delivery of the Completion Amount Statement until the earlier of the date that is 30 days thereafter (such 30-day period, the “Review Period”) and the date on which a Dispute Notice is delivered, the Purchaser shall provide the Sellers or their Representatives with reasonable access to the books, records and employees of the Purchaser, upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours, solely for the purpose of enabling the Sellers to review the Purchaser’s calculation of the Completion Amount, provided that the Sellers shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser for any costs, fees or expenses incurred in connection with such access.  As promptly as practicable after the date of delivery of the Completion Amount Statement, but in no event later than the last day of the Review Period, the Sellers shall deliver to the Purchaser a written statement (a “Dispute Notice”) setting forth their good faith objections, if any, to the calculation of the Completion Amount, it being agreed that the sole bases on which the Sellers may object to the calculation of the Completion Amount shall be that (i) any of the costs, fees or expenses included therein do not constitute Completion Costs as defined in this Agreement, (ii) the calculation of Completion Costs included therein is incorrect or (iii) any Completion Cost paid by Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof to Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof is not on arm’s-length terms (such disputed costs, fees or expenses included in the Completion Amount, the “Disputed Costs”, and the Purchaser’s calculation of each Disputed Cost, a “Purchaser Disputed Cost Calculation”).  The Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of any such objection, including the Sellers’ assertion as to the correct calculation of each such Disputed Cost and of the Contingent Payment (a “Seller Disputed Cost Calculation” and the “Seller Contingent Payment Calculation”, respectively).  The Sellers may not deliver a Dispute Notice unless the Seller Contingent Payment Calculation is at least $10,000,000 greater than the Purchaser Contingent Payment Calculation.  For purposes of illustration only, the Sellers may dispute a $50,000 fee paid to a third-party architect included in the Completion Amount on the grounds that it was paid for architectural services unrelated to the development or completion of the Project and therefore was not a Completion Cost as defined in this Agreement (i.e., that the Sellers’ calculation of this Disputed Cost was zero), or that such fee was in fact $40,000, but the Sellers may not dispute the fee on the grounds that such architectural services were unnecessary to complete or develop the Project, that similar services could have been obtained for a lower fee, that such fee was not included in the Completion Cost Projections or on any other basis.

(d)           If the Sellers do not deliver a Dispute Notice on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, the Completion Amount shall be the “Final Completion Amount” and shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement.  If the Sellers deliver a Dispute Notice to the Purchaser on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, then any calculation of Completion Costs set forth in the Completion Amount Statement to which the Sellers do not object in the Dispute Notice shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement (the aggregate amount of the Completion Costs set forth in the Completion Amount Statement not disputed in a Dispute Notice, the “Undisputed Completion Amount”), and the Sellers and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the amount of the Disputed Costs.  If the Sellers and the Purchaser are unable to reach agreement on any such Disputed Costs within thirty

35

days after the delivery of the Dispute Notice, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall refer (i) any such dispute with respect to Disputed Costs that are not Transaction-Related Completion Costs to a nationally recognized construction consulting firm reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Sellers and (ii) any such dispute with respect to Disputed Costs that are Transaction-Related Completion Costs to a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Sellers (such construction consulting firm and such accounting firm, together, the “Auditor”) for resolution and (A) each of the Purchaser and the Sellers shall have a reasonable opportunity to meet with the Auditor to provide their views to the Auditor with respect to such Disputed Costs, (B) each of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall provide the other with copies of any information provided to the Auditor and shall not meet or communicate with the Auditor except in the presence of a Representative of the other and (C) the Auditor shall be instructed to deliver to the Purchaser and the Sellers within 30 days of such referral a written statement (the “Auditor’s Statement”) setting forth the Auditor’s calculation in accordance with this Agreement of the amount of each Disputed Cost (the Auditor’s calculation of each Disputed Cost, a “Finally Determined Cost”).  In calculating the Finally Determined Costs (the aggregate amount thereof, the “Finally Determined Cost Aggregate”), (x) the Auditor shall be limited to addressing the Disputed Costs referred to in the Dispute Notice and (y) any Finally Determined Cost shall be no less than the applicable Seller Disputed Cost Calculation and no more than the applicable Purchaser Disputed Cost Calculation.  The Finally Determined Costs shall be deemed final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement and the “Final Completion Amount” shall be an amount equal to the Undisputed Completion Amount plus the Finally Determined Cost Aggregate.  The Purchaser will be responsible for and will pay the lesser of one half of all costs, fees and expenses of the Auditor and $50,000, and the Sellers will be responsible for and will pay all remaining costs, fees and expenses of the Auditor.  The provisions of Sections 2.10(c) and (d) shall be the sole remedy of the Parties with respect to any dispute in connection with the Contingent Payment.

(e)           The Contingent Payment, if due, shall be paid as follows:

  (i)          If the Measurement Date occurs and (x) the Final Completion Amount is less than $1,460,000,000 (the “Target Completion Amount”), the Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers, within 30 days of the date on which the Final Completion Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.10, an amount equal to 50% of the amount by which the Target Completion Amount exceeds the Final Completion Amount or (y) the Final Completion Amount is equal to or greater than the Target Completion Amount, no Contingent Payment shall be due.

 (ii)          If the Third-Party Sale Date occurs and (x) the Final Completion Amount is less than the amount of cash received by Purchaser at the consummation of the Third-Party Sale (the “Third-Party Sale Amount”), the Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers, within 30 days of the date on which the Final Completion Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.10, an amount equal to 33.33% of the amount by which the Third-Party Sale Amount exceeds the Final Completion Amount or (y) the Final Completion Amount is equal to or greater than the Third-Party Sale Amount, no Contingent Payment shall be due.

(a)           Prior to the Closing, the Purchaser may offer to employ each current Seller Employee that Purchaser selects in its sole discretion to become an employee of Purchaser commencing as of the Closing.  Offers of employment to Seller Employees who are not subject to, or otherwise covered by, a Labor Agreement, shall be on an “at-will” basis; provided, that, any such “at-will” employment offers will (i) be contingent on the Closing occurring; (ii) be subject to and in compliance with the Purchaser’s standard human resources, ethics and compliance policies and procedures; (iii) supersede any prior employment agreements and (iv) be contingent on each Seller Employee (A) completing, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, an employment application (including work status verification), (B) passing a standard background check of the Purchaser, and (C) signing such covenants and other contractual provisions as the Purchaser may in its discretion require in the ordinary course of its business; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 5.9(a) requires the Purchaser to employ any Seller Employee for any period of time after the Closing.  For purposes of this Agreement, each Seller Employee who receives such an offer of employment shall be referred to as an “Offeree”.  Each Offeree who accepts such offer prior to the Closing shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee”.  The Sellers hereby agree to waive any condition or restriction that they may have the contractual right to impose on the hiring and employment by Purchaser of any Seller Employee, effective as of the Closing Date (other than any such covenants not to disclose confidential information of any Seller to any Person other than Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof).  Following the date of this Agreement, the Sellers shall allow the Purchaser reasonable access upon reasonable advance notice to meet with and interview Seller Employees, whom Purchaser has identified as potential Offerees, during normal business hours; provided, however, that such access shall not unduly interfere with the conduct of the Auction or the maintenance or Stabilization of the Purchased Assets or the Project prior to the Closing.

52

(b)           Sellers shall be responsible for providing any notice to all Seller Employees required pursuant to the WARN Act with respect to any layoff or plant closing that occurs prior to or on the Closing Date and to each Excluded Employee required pursuant to the WARN Act with respect to any layoff or plant closing that occurs after the Closing Date, and Sellers shall be solely liable for all Liabilities with respect to the WARN Act or the failure to provide any such notice in a timely manner.

(c)           Sellers agree and acknowledge that the Sellers shall continue to offer or otherwise ensure access to coverage under a U.S. group health plan to any Seller Employee, or their qualified beneficiaries under COBRA (“COBRA Beneficiaries”), after the Closing Date and for any period necessary in order to fulfill Seller’s health care continuation coverage obligations, if any, under COBRA.  Sellers shall ensure none of Purchaser or its Affiliates, nor their respective Seller Benefits Plans, are required to provide such COBRA continuation coverage or any alternative coverage, nor have any Liability under COBRA, arising on or before the Closing Date, with respect to any COBRA Beneficiary subsequently covered or required to be covered under a U.S. group health plan maintained by Purchaser.  Sellers shall be solely responsible for providing COBRA continuation coverage, including to those individuals who are M&A qualified beneficiaries (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-4(a)) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in accordance with Applicable Law, regardless of when their qualifying event occurs, for the duration of the period during which such individuals are eligible for such coverage, or otherwise providing alternative coverage as permitted under Applicable Law in lieu of such COBRA continuation coverage.

(d)           Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the Purchaser’s right to terminate the employment of its employees.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to grant any employee of any Seller a right to continued employment by, or to receive any payment or benefits from, any Seller or Purchaser or through any Seller Benefit Plan or other benefit plan.  This Agreement shall not limit Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ ability or right to amend or terminate any benefit or compensation plan or program of Purchaser or its Affiliates and nothing contained herein shall be construed as an amendment to or modification of any such plan.  Nothing contained in this Section 5.9, express or implied, shall constitute an amendment to any Seller Benefit Plan or other plan, create any third party beneficiary rights or inure to the benefit of or be enforceable by any employee of the Purchaser or of any Seller, or any Person representing the interest of any employees.

Section 5.10         Purchaser’s Net Worth.  At all times between the date that is five Business Days after the date of this Agreement and the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall maintain a net worth (without giving effect to any of Purchaser’s payment or funding obligations under this Agreement or the DIP Facility) at least equal to (a) the Closing Cash Payment (calculated as of such time), plus (b) the Available Unused Commitment (as defined in the DIP Facility) of the Purchaser (calculated as of such time), plus (c) $6,000,000.  The Purchaser agrees to have, on the day on which the Contingent Payment, if any, is to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10(e)(i) or (ii), as applicable, sufficient internal funds (without giving effect to any available borrowings under revolving commitments of the Purchaser or Penn and its subsidiaries) available to pay the Contingent Payment, if any.

53

Section 5.11         Confidentiality.

(a)           The Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to, until the Closing: (i) treat and hold as confidential all (and not disclose or provide any third party access to any) Sellers’ Confidential Information, (ii) in the event that the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other process) to disclose any Sellers’ Confidential Information, provide Sellers with prompt written notice of such request or requirement (to the extent legally permissible) so that Sellers may seek a protective order or other remedy and reasonably cooperate with the Sellers and their Representatives in connection therewith and (iii) in the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, (x) furnish only that portion of such Sellers’ Confidential Information that is legally required to be furnished, (y) promptly notify Sellers of the nature, scope and contents of such disclosure and (z) reasonably cooperate with Sellers to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such Sellers’ Confidential Information; provided, that this Agreement shall not prohibit or otherwise restrict Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives (A) from disclosing any information to any Person to whom Penn Ventures, LLC was permitted to disclose information pursuant to that certain Consent granted by Fontainebleau Resorts, LLC under the Confidentiality Agreement on October 5, 2009, it being agreed that any such Person to whom Sellers’ Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to this clause (A) shall be deemed a “Representative” of Purchaser for purposes of this Section 5.11(a) or (B) from disclosing any information that relates to environmental matters or LEED Certification to any Governmental Authority, USGBC, GBCI or any insurer.

(b)           The Sellers shall, and shall cause their Representatives to, from and after the Closing: (i) treat and hold as confidential all (and not disclose or provide any third party access to any) Purchaser’s Confidential Information, (ii) in the event that any of the Sellers or any of their Representatives is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other process) to disclose any Purchaser’s Confidential Information, provide Purchaser with prompt written notice of such request or requirement (to the extent legally permissible) so that Purchaser may seek a protective order or other remedy and reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and its Affiliates and Representatives in connection therewith and (iii) in the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, (x) furnish only that portion of such Purchaser’s Confidential Information that is legally required to be furnished, (y) promptly notify Purchaser of the nature, scope and contents of such disclosure and (z) reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such Purchaser’s Confidential Information.

59

to Section 1146 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) the Purchaser shall pay and shall be responsible for all other costs, fees and expenses associated with the recordings of the Deeds (the Transfer Taxes, notarial fees and other costs, fees and expenses described in this sentence, “Transfer Costs”).  The Party responsible under Applicable Law shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns relating to Transfer Taxes.

(b)           Within 90 days following the  Final Remediation Determination Date, the Purchaser shall provide the Sellers with a proposed allocation of the Closing-Related Consideration and the Assumed Liabilities among the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes.  If the Sellers do not deliver a written notice disagreeing with Purchaser’s proposed allocation within 30 days following Sellers’ receipt thereof, the proposed allocation shall be final and binding on the Sellers and the Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement.  If the Sellers deliver a written notice disagreeing with the Purchaser’s proposed allocation within 30 days following Sellers’ receipt thereof, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within thirty days following the date of the dispute notice.  If Sellers and Purchaser are unable to resolve such dispute within such 30-day period, they shall refer such dispute to an independent accounting firm or appraisal firm jointly selected by the Parties, whose determination shall be final and binding on Sellers and Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Sellers shall pay and shall be responsible for all of the costs, fees and expenses of such independent accounting firm or appraisal firm.  The final allocation of the Closing-Related Consideration and the Assumed Liabilities among the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes, determined in accordance with this Section 7.4(b), shall be set forth on a written schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”).  The allocation of the Contingent Payment, if any, for Tax purposes shall be consistent with the Allocation Schedule.  The Sellers and the Purchaser agree to timely file, or to cause to be timely filed, Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 (or any comparable form under state, local, or foreign Tax law) and any required attachments thereto in accordance with the Allocation Schedule.  Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of IRC Section 1313(a) (or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign law) and resulting from an adjustment to a tax return initiated by the Internal Revenue Service (or any state, local or foreign taxing authority), neither the Sellers nor the Purchaser shall take, or shall permit any of its Affiliates to take, a Tax position (whether on a Tax Return or otherwise) that is inconsistent with the allocation reflected in the Allocation Schedule.

(c)           The Sellers shall be responsible for any Property Taxes (including any special or supplemental assessments) with respect to any Purchased Asset allocable to any taxable period or portion thereof ending prior to or on the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) (without regard to when such Taxes are assessed or payable).  The Purchaser shall be responsible for any Property Taxes (including any special or supplemental assessments) with respect to any Purchased Asset for Tax periods beginning after the Closing Date (without regard to when such Taxes are assessed or payable).  In either case, the amount of Property Tax allocable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of a taxable period that commences prior to and includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the Straddle Period preceding and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.  If, following the Closing, one Party remits to the appropriate Governmental Authority payment for Property Taxes which are subject to this Section 7.4(c) and such payment includes the other Party’s share

60

of such Taxes, such other Party shall promptly reimburse the remitting Party for its share of such Taxes upon written notice from such paying Party; provided, that Purchaser shall not be required to make any payment with respect to prepaid Property Taxes described in Section 2.1(e)(ii).  Any refund of Property Taxes which are subject to this Section 7.4(c) shall be allocated between the Sellers and the Purchaser in a manner consistent with the foregoing.

(d)           The Purchaser and the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish or to cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as reasonably practicable, such information in their possession and assistance relating to the Project, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities (other than the Excluded Books and Records) as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other filings relating to Tax matters, or in connection with any Tax audit or other Tax proceeding.  The Sellers shall either (i) retain in their possession all Tax Returns and Tax records relating to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities until the relevant statute of limitations has expired or, with respect to any then pending Tax audit or judicial or administrative proceeding until final resolution thereof (taking into account any extensions thereof), after which time the Sellers may dispose of such materials; provided that prior to such disposition the Sellers shall give the Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to take possession of such materials or (ii) provide such materials to the Purchaser.

(a)           In the event that (x) the condition set forth in Section 6.2(e) has been satisfied or waived and (y) this Agreement is terminated under (i) Section 8.1(b) or (l), provided, that a breach by the Purchaser of any term or provision of this Agreement or the DIP Facility was not a material cause of or a material contributing factor to the event giving rise to the right of termination thereunder, provided, further, in the case of a termination under Section 8.1(b), that the failure of the Closing to have occurred on or prior to the Outside Date did not result solely from the failure of the condition set forth in Section 6.1(d)(ii)(B) to be satisfied, (ii) Section 8.1(c), provided, that such termination is not based on an inaccuracy in the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1(t) arising from a Material Adverse Effect described in clause (z)(2) of the second sentence of the definition thereof or (iii) Section 8.1(e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j) or (k), the Sellers shall pay the Break-Up Fee to the Purchaser not later than three Business Days following such termination.

(b)           The Sellers’ obligation to make any payment on account of the Break-Up Fee shall have super-priority administrative expense status, senior to all other administrative expense claims (other than Sellers’ obligations pursuant to the DIP Facility and the DIP Order, which obligations shall be pari passu with the Sellers’ obligation to pay the Break-Up Fee), under Section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, until such payment is made.

ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1            Survival.  The representations and warranties of the Parties in this Agreement shall not survive the Closing.  Any Liability for breach of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, or for the breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement to the extent such breach occurs prior to (and not at or after) the Closing, shall terminate absolutely and be deemed fully waived, released and forever discharged as of the Closing, if the Closing occurs.

Section 9.2            No Recording.  The Sellers acknowledge and agree that they shall not record, or cause to be recorded, this Agreement, or any part thereof, or any instrument, agreement or other document evidencing this Agreement, against title to the Real Property (or

63

any part thereof) unless so instructed by the Purchaser, provided the Purchaser shall pay all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

Section 9.3            Relationship of the Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed so as to make the Purchaser a partner of any Seller and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed so as to make the Purchaser an owner of any Real Property for any purpose until the Closing.

Section 9.4            Amendment of Agreement.  This Agreement may not be supplemented, modified or amended except by a written agreement executed by each Party.

Section 9.5            Notices.  Any Notice shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when personally delivered or when mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed as follows, or to such other addresses as may be furnished hereafter by notice, in writing, to the other Party on at least three Business Days’ prior notice, to the following Parties:

Section 9.6            Fees and Expenses.  If any Party hereto brings an action against any other Party hereto based upon a breach by such other Party hereto of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to reimbursement of all reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with such action, including reasonable costs, fees and expenses of counsel, from the non-prevailing Party.  The Parties agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall bear and pay all costs, fees and expenses that it incurs, or which may be incurred on its behalf, in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 9.7            Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with federal bankruptcy law, to the extent applicable, and, where state law is implicated, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.  By its execution and delivery of this

65

Agreement, each of the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that any action, suit or proceeding between any of the Sellers, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, with respect to any matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding, shall be brought in the Bankruptcy Court for that purpose only, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each hereby irrevocably accepts and submits itself to the jurisdiction of such court, generally and unconditionally, with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding.  In the event any such action, suit or proceeding is commenced, the Parties hereby agree and consent that service of process may be made, and personal jurisdiction over any Party hereto in any such action, suit or proceeding may be obtained, by service of a copy of the summons, complaint and other pleadings required to commence such action, suit or proceeding upon the Party at the address of such Party set forth in Section 9.5 hereof, unless another address has been designated by such Party in a notice given to the other Parties in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5 hereof.

Section 9.8            Further Assurances.  Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto agrees to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record such further certificates, amendments, instruments and documents, and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be reasonably requested by any other Party in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party, provided that this Section 9.8 shall not require any Party to take any action that is commercially unreasonable or that would result in any Liability of such Party or any of its Affiliates.

Section 9.9            Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the DIP Facility constitute the full and entire agreement between the Parties hereto pertaining to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the Transaction Documents and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, with respect thereto made by any Party.

Section 9.10         Waiver.  No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar) nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressed or provided.  All waivers hereunder must be in writing to be effective.

Section 9.11         Assignment.  None of the Sellers or the Purchaser may assign or otherwise transfer their respective rights and/or obligations hereunder (or agree to do so) without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided, that Purchaser may, without the consent of any Seller, assign or transfer any or all of its rights and/or obligations hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates (in any or all of which cases described in this proviso Purchaser nonetheless shall remain liable for the performance of all of Purchaser’s obligations hereunder to the extent not performed by the assignee).  Purchaser shall give prompt written notice to Sellers of any such assignment.  Any assignment or other transfer not permitted under this Section 9.11 shall be null and void ab initio.

66

Section 9.12         Successors and Assigns.  Subject to Section 9.11, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including, in the case of any Seller, (a) any trust created upon the consummation of a plan of reorganization in such Seller’s Seller Chapter 11 Case, (b) a liquidating or litigation trustee appointed in such Seller’s Seller Chapter 11 Case or (c) a plan administrator appointed in such Seller’s Seller Chapter 11 Case.

Section 9.13         No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or shall, confer any third party beneficiary or other rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties hereto.

Section 9.14         Severability of Provisions.  Any provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, provided in all cases that neither the economic nor legal substance of this Agreement is affected by the operation of this sentence in any manner materially adverse to any Party.  Upon any such determination that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

Section 9.15         Specific Performance.

(a)           Purchaser acknowledges that Sellers would be damaged irreparably in the event that the terms of this Agreement are not performed by Purchaser in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached or Purchaser fails to consummate the Closing and that, in addition to any other remedy that Sellers may have under law or equity, Sellers shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the terms of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof that are required to be performed by Purchaser.

(b)           Sellers acknowledge that Purchaser would be damaged irreparably in the event that the terms of this Agreement are not performed by Sellers in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached or Sellers fail to consummate the Closing and that, in addition to any other remedy that Purchaser may have under law or equity, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the terms of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof that are required to be performed by Sellers.

Section 9.16         Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original hereof, and all of which shall constitute a single agreement effective as of the date hereof.  Any delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

67

Section 9.17         Payments to Sellers.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any payment required to be made by the Purchaser (or from the Remediation Escrow Fund) to any Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall, if so directed by the Bankruptcy Court, be deposited into an escrow account for the benefit of the estates of all of the Sellers in lieu of being paid to such Seller.

68

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Asset Purchase Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first above written.
