         Section 1.02 Grant of Authority. Owner hereby grants to Manager the
power and authority to manage, operate, control and direct the Equipment of
Owner to the full extent of Owner's power and authority; provided that Manager
shall not have the power or authority to (i) perform any act that is expressly
required to be performed by Owner; or (ii) grant by contract any encumbrance,
security interest or pledge in any of the Equipment (other than to lessees of
the Equipment).

         Section 1.03 Employees; Independent Contractor.

         (a) Manager shall be responsible for all of its employees and/or
independent contractors engaged by it. All matters pertaining to the employment,

employees for their compensation (in whatever form or amount such compensation
may be). Manager shall fully comply with all applicable laws and regulations
having to do with worker's compensation, social security, unemployment,
insurance, hours of labor, wages, working conditions, and other
employer-employee related subjects in connection with the Equipment.

         (b) This Agreement is entered into solely to provide for the
performance of the services set forth herein and to define the rights,
obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto. This Agreement, and any
document or understanding entered into in connection herewith, shall not be
deemed to create any other relationship between Manager and Owner other than as
expressly provided herein. It is understood that the relationship of Manager to
Owner shall be that of an independent contractor. Nothing contained herein or
inferable here from shall be deemed or construed to (1) make Manager the agent,
servant or employee of Owner, or (2) to create any partnership, joint venture,
or other association between Owner and Manager. Owner shall not be responsible
for any injury sustained by Manager of its employees or by third parties arising
out of the performance of this Agreement by Manager under Owner's workers'

its attention to the extent such remedy is within the control of Manager.
Manager further agrees to obtain any licenses and approvals required for the
operation of the Equipment.

         (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of this Agreement

Equipment on behalf of Owner in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement.

and other plans, arrangements, systems, rules and procedures defining and used
in the operation and use of the Equipment and the playing of the MegaMania and
Flash Cash games and (b) the "GAME ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES" which are defined as
specific written procedures to be followed regarding the handling of revenues
derived from use of the Equipment. Manager shall communicate, negotiate and
coordinate with each third party which may have leased or contracted to use the
Equipment, regarding the implementation of the Gaming Procedures and the Game
Accounting Procedures.

         Section 3.03 Use/Lease Contracts; Re-leasing.

         (a) Manager is responsible for supervising and administering the
leasing of the Equipment to the Indian tribes as specified in EXHIBIT 3.03
hereto, or to such other tribes as may from time to time lease or use the
Equipment (each a "TRIBE") and agrees to perform whatever service may be
required in connection with the negotiation of renewals, extensions,
modifications or cancellations thereof, subject to Owner's final approval. In
the event a lease of the Equipment with a Tribe is terminated, Manager shall use
its best efforts to enter into another lease/purchase or rental pool agreement
for the use of the Equipment at the earliest possible date, after making all
necessary modifications to insure the marketability of the Equipment, and
provided that Owner has approved the terms and conditions pursuant to which the
Equipment is to be leased or used. Manager shall use its best efforts in good
faith to not enter into any future lease/purchase agreements if such agreements
result in more than fifty-percent (50%) of the Equipment being subject to
lease/purchase agreements.

         (b) Manager agrees that it will not place other MegaMania electronic
player stations at a bingo facility that has returned the Equipment (a
"RETURNING FACILITY") to Manager or Owner unless the Equipment has subsequently
been leased to another party upon terms and conditions equally or more favorable
to Owner than the terms and conditions of the agreement with the Returning
Facility. Manager shall use its best efforts to ensure that the Equipment is
leased or in use at all times during the Term of this Agreement. Owner agrees to
pay a fee of Ten Dollars ($10.00) per electronic player station for the cost and
expense of re-leasing the Equipment (the "RE-LEASING FEE").

delivered to Owner within thirty (30) business days of collection by Manager.

approval of insurance coverage to be maintained by Manager are intended to and
shall not in any manner limit, qualify or quantify the liabilities and
obligations assumed by Manager under the Agreement or otherwise provided by law.
The types of coverage shall, at a minimum, include Property and Casualty
Insurance to cover risk of loss or damage to the Equipment, Workers'
Compensation, Employers' Liability, Commercial General Liability, Comprehensive
Automobile Liability and Umbrella Excess Liability Insurance. Owner shall be
named as additional insurer on all such policies.

and omissions insurance coverage or other protection suitable to Owner against
the possibility of duplication of prize liabilities due to the malfunction of
the Equipment and/or the personnel provided by Manager and its subcontractor to
operate and manage the Equipment. Further, Manager shall guaranty, and be solely
responsible for, the payment of prizes won while using the Equipment by letters
of credit, performance bonds, escrowed funds, insurance and/or other guarantees.

of Owner, prepare, execute and file punctually when due all forms, reports and
returns required by law relating to the use of the Equipment, including any

shall be kept in all material respects in accordance with the standards of the
industry. Manager will not disclose to any party other than Owner the contents
of such books and records, except as may be required by law. Manager shall also
take reasonable steps to ensure that neither Manager nor any of Manager's
employees or independent contractors at any time discloses or otherwise makes
use of in any manner, whether during or after the Term, any information
regarding the Owner's business or affairs without the prior written consent of
Owner. This obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement. All
books and records relating to the Equipment shall be delivered to Owner or
Owner's designated representative immediately upon request of Owner.

         (b) Owner, its accountants, attorneys, and agents, may, subject to the
lease of the Equipment with a Tribe or any agreement with a third party, examine
or inspect the Equipment and any books and records relating to the Equipment for

Such inspection shall occur with as little disruption to the Tribe's or
Manager's business as possible. Owner also reserves the right to perform
additional audits relating to the Manager's activities.
