                                        4

<PAGE>   5

                  SECTION 2.9. Increase in Revolving Loan Commitment Amount
         and/or Term Loan Commitment Amount.

                  (a) Provided that no Default or Event of Default then exists,
         the Borrower may on any Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan
         Commitment Termination Date, request in writing that the then effective
         Term Loan Commitment Amount and/or Revolving Loan Commitment Amount be
         increased in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The
         Borrower may make only two requests under this Section and in no event
         may the aggregate amount of such increases exceed $150,000,000. Not
         less than $100,000,000 of any requested increase shall be used by the
         Borrower to fund its Investment in the Borgata Joint Venture. Any
         request under this Section to increase the Commitment Amount(s)shall be
         submitted by the Borrower to the Agent, specify the proposed effective
         date (which date shall be not less than 5 days after the date of such
         request), the amount of such increase and the Commitment Amount(s)
         proposed to be increased (which shall be in integral multiples of
         $1,000,000) and the Borrower's uses for such increase. The Agent may,
         in the exercise of its sole discretion, approve or disapprove of the
         Borrower's request. If the Agent shall approve, no Lender shall have
         any obligation, express or implied, to offer to increase its
         Commitment. Only the consent of the Agent and those Lenders that have
         increased their Commitments (the "Increasing Lenders") shall be
         required for an increase in the Commitment Amounts pursuant to this
         Section.

                  (b) The Borrower may accept some or all of the offered amounts
         from the then-current Lenders or designate new lenders who qualify as
         Eligible Assignees and which are reasonably acceptable to the Agent as
         additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with clause (c) of this
         Section (each, a "New Lender"), which New Lender may assume all or a
         portion of the increase in the applicable Commitment Amount. The Agent
         and the Borrower shall have discretion to adjust the allocation of the
         increased Commitment Amount among Increasing Lenders and New Lenders.

                  (c) Each New Lender designated by the Borrower and reasonably
         acceptable to the Agent shall become an additional party hereto as a
         New Lender concurrently with the effectiveness of the proposed increase
         in the applicable Commitment Amount upon its execution of an instrument
         of joinder to this Agreement which is in form and substance


                                        5

<PAGE>   6

         reasonably acceptable to the Agent and which, in any event, contains
         the representations, warranties, indemnities and other protections
         afforded to the Agent and the other Lenders.

                  (d) Subject to the foregoing, any increase requested by the
         Borrower shall be effective as of the date proposed by the Borrower and
         shall be in the principal amount equal to (i) the amount which
         Increasing Lenders are willing to assume as increases to the amount of
         their Commitments plus (ii) the amount offered by any New Lender, in
         either case as adjusted by the Agent and the Borrower pursuant to
         Section 2.9(b). Upon the effectiveness of any such increase, if
         requested by the applicable Lender, the Borrower shall issue
         replacement Notes to each Increasing Lender and new Notes to each New
         Lender, and the applicable Percentages of each Lender will be adjusted
         to give effect to the increase in the applicable Commitment Amount as
         set forth in a new Schedule I issued by the Agent. To the extent that
         the adjustment of Percentages results in loss or expenses to any Lender
         as a result of the prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan on a date
         other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable
         thereto, the Borrower shall be responsible for such loss or expenses
         pursuant to Section 4.4.

         2. Effective Date. This Amendment shall be effective on the date on
which:

         a. This Amendment shall have been executed by the Borrower, the
Majority Revolving Lenders and the Majority Lenders; and

         b. The Agent shall have received executed acknowledgment and
reaffirmations, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, duly
executed by each of the Guarantors;

and, on such date the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted to give effect to the
terms hereof.

         3. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and
warrants to the Agent and the Lenders as follows:

         a. The Borrower has the power and authority and the legal right to
execute, deliver and perform this Amendment and has taken all necessary action
to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment. This
Amendment has been duly


                                        6

executed and delivered by the Borrower. The Credit Agreement (as amended by this
Amendment) and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is party
constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable
against the Borrower in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws now or
hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights generally, and general
principles of equity.

         b. At and as of the date of execution hereof and at and as of the
effective date of this Amendment and after giving effect to this Amendment: (1)
the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Credit
Agreement are true and correct in all respects, and (2) no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement.

         4. Reaffirmation of Credit Agreement. This Amendment shall be deemed to
be an amendment to the Credit Agreement, and the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby, is hereby ratified, approved and confirmed in each and every respect.
All references to the Credit Agreement in any other document, instrument,
agreement or writing shall hereafter be deemed to refer to the Credit Agreement
as amended hereby.

         5. Reaffirmation of Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby further affirms
and agrees that (a) the execution and delivery by the Borrower of and the
performance of its obligations under the Credit Agreement, as amended by this
Amendment, shall not in any way amend, impair, invalidate or otherwise affect
any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of the Agent or the Lenders
under any of the Loan Documents or any other document or instrument made or
given by the Borrower in connection therewith, and (b) the term "Obligations" as
used in the Loan Documents includes, without limitation, the Obligations of the
Borrower under the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.

         6. Miscellaneous Provisions.

         a. Survival. The provisions of this Amendment shall survive to the
extent provided in Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement.

         b. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF NEVADA.


                                        7

<PAGE>   8

         c. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which together shall constituted one agreement.

         d. No Other Amendment. Except as expressly amended herein, the Credit
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all documents, instruments and
agreements relating thereto or executed in connection therewith shall remain in
full force and effect as currently written.
