held, on or prior to the Distribution Date, by Company or any Mississippi

(a) a contribution to Lakes of all of the outstanding capital stock of

provided, however, that;

or prior to the Distribution Date, by Lakes or any of the Non-Mississippi
Subsidiaries, if any.

<PAGE> 19

Section 2.03. Transfers Not Effected Prior to the Distribution. To the
extent that any transfers contemplated by this Article II shall not have been
fully effected as of the Distribution Date, the parties shall cooperate to
effect such transfers as promptly as shall be practicable following the
Distribution Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the transfer of any
assets or the assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or operation of
law cannot be transferred or assumed including, without limitation, pursuant to
Gaming Laws; provided, however, that Company and Lakes and their respective
Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall cooperate in seeking to obtain any necessary
consents or approvals for the transfer of all assets and Liabilities
contemplated to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement including, without
limitation, pursuant to Gaming Laws.

In the event that any such transfer of assets or Liabilities has not been
consummated effective as of the Distribution Date, the party retaining such
asset or Liability shall thereafter hold such asset in trust for the use and
benefit of the party entitled thereto (at the expense of the party entitled
thereto) and retain such Liability for the account of the party by whom such
Liability is to be assumed pursuant hereto, and take such other actions as may
be reasonably required in order to place the parties, insofar as reasonably
possible, in the same position as would have existed had such asset been
transferred or such Liability been assumed as contemplated hereby. As and when
any such asset or Liability becomes transferable, such transfer and assumption
shall be effected forthwith. The parties agree that, except as set forth in this
Section 2.03, as of the Distribution Date, each party hereto shall be deemed to
have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the assets,
together with all rights, powers and privileges incidental thereto, and shall be
deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the
Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incidental
thereto, which such party is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.04. Cooperation Re: Assets. In the case that at any time after
the Distribution Date, Lakes reasonably determines that any of the Mississippi
Group Assets (other than the assets set forth in Schedule 3) are essential for
the conduct of the Non-Mississippi Business, or Company reasonably determines
that any of the Non-Mississippi Group Assets (other than the assets set forth in
Schedule 5) are essential for the conduct of the Mississippi Business, and the
nature of such assets makes it impracticable for Lakes or Company, as the case
may be, to obtain substitute assets or to make alternative arrangements on
commercially reasonable terms to conduct their respective businesses, and
reasonable provisions for the use thereof are not already included in the
Related Agreements, then Lakes (with respect to the Non-Mississippi Group
Assets) and Company (with respect to the Mississippi Group Assets) shall
cooperate to make such assets available to the other party on commercially
reasonable terms, as may be reasonably required for such party to maintain
normal business operations. However, (a) the usage of such assets by the other
party shall not materially interfere with the use of such assets by the party
holding such assets; and (b) such assets shall be required to be made available
only until such time as the other party can reasonably obtain substitute assets
or make alternative arrangements on commercially reasonable terms to permit it
to maintain normal business operations.

<PAGE> 20

Section 2.05. No Representations or Warranties; Consents. Each of the
parties hereto understands and agrees that no party hereto is, in this
Agreement, in any Related Agreement, or otherwise, representing or warranting in
any way (a) as to the value or freedom from encumbrance of, or any other matter
concerning, any assets of such party; or (b) as to the legal sufficiency to
convey title to any asset transferred pursuant to this Agreement or any Related
Agreement. IT IS ALSO AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF ANY OF THE ASSETS
EITHER TRANSFERRED TO OR RETAINED BY THE PARTIES, AS THE CASE MAY BE, AND ALL
SUCH ASSETS SHALL BE "AS IS, WHERE IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS"; provided, however,
that the absence of warranties shall have no effect upon the allocation of
Liabilities under this Agreement.

Each party hereto understands and agrees that no party hereto is, in this
Agreement, in any Related Agreement or otherwise, representing or warranting in
any way that the obtaining of any consents or approvals, the execution and
delivery of any amendatory agreements and the making of any filings or
applications contemplated by this Agreement, any Related Agreement or otherwise
will satisfy the provisions of any or all applicable laws or judgments or other
instruments or agreements relating to such assets, including without limitation,
the Gaming Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall use their good
faith efforts to obtain all consents and approvals, including, without
limitation, pursuant to the Gaming Laws, to enter into all reasonable amendatory
agreements and to make all filings and applications which may be reasonably
required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and the Related Agreements, and shall take all such further reasonable actions
as shall be necessary to preserve for each of the Non-Mississippi Group and the
Mississippi Group, to the greatest extent feasible, the economic and operational
benefits of the allocation of assets and liabilities provided for in this
Agreement. In case at any time after the Distribution Date any further action is
necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper
officers and directors of each party to this Agreement shall take all such
necessary or desirable action.

Section 2.06. Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments. In connection with
the Preliminary Transfers described in Article II and Article III hereof, and
the assignment of assets and the assumption of Liabilities contemplated by any
Related Agreements, the parties shall execute, or cause to be executed by the
appropriate entities, the Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments in such forms
as the parties shall reasonably agree. The transfer of capital stock and other
equity interests shall be effected by means of delivery of stock certificates
and executed stock powers and notation on the stock record books of the
corporation or other legal entity involved and, to the extent required by
applicable law, by notation on public registries.

Section 2.07. Cash Allocations After the Year-End. Notwithstanding

maintain a separate cash management system and separate accounting records with
respect to the Non-Mississippi Group Business effective as of 12:01 a.m.
Minneapolis time on the day following the Distribution Date.

<PAGE> 22

each of their respective past or present directors, officers, employees, agents
and Affiliates and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any
of the foregoing (the "Lakes Indemnitees") from and against any and all losses,
Liabilities, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees in connection with any
such investigations, Actions, or threatened Actions) (collectively,
"Indemnifiable Losses" and, individually, an "Indemnifiable Loss") incurred or
suffered by any of the Lakes Indemnitees and arising out of or due to the
failure or alleged failure of Company, any Mississippi Subsidiary, or any of
their respective Affiliates to (a) pay, perform or otherwise discharge in due
course any of the Mississippi Group Liabilities, or (b) comply with the
provisions of Section 6.04 hereof.

Section 5.02. Indemnification by Lakes. Lakes shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless Company and each of the Mississippi Subsidiaries, and each of
their respective past or present directors, officers, employees, agents and
Affiliates and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of
the foregoing (the "Company Indemnitees") from and against any and all
Indemnifiable Losses incurred or suffered by any of Company Indemnitees and
arising out of or due to the failure or alleged failure of Lakes, any
Non-Mississippi Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates to (a) pay,
perform or otherwise discharge in due course any of the Non-Mississippi Group
Liabilities; or (b) comply with the provisions of Section 6.04 hereof.

Section 5.03. Insurance Proceeds. The amount which any party (an
"Indemnifying Party") is or may be required to pay to any other Person (an
"Indemnified Person") pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 shall be reduced
(including, without limitation, retroactively) by any Insurance Proceeds or
other amounts actually recovered by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person in
reduction of the related Indemnifiable Loss. If an Indemnified Person shall have
received the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in
respect of an Indemnifiable Loss and shall subsequently actually receive
Insurance Proceeds, or other amounts in respect of such Indemnifiable Loss as
specified above, then such Indemnified Person shall pay to such Indemnifying
Party a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts
actually received.

<PAGE> 27

Section 5.04. Procedure for Indemnification.

(a) If an Indemnified Person shall receive written notice of the
assertion by a Person (including, without limitation, any Governmental
Authority) who is not a party to this Agreement or to any of the Related
Agreements of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action
with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (a "Third-Party Claim"), such
Indemnified Person shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof
promptly after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim; provided, that the
failure of any Indemnified Person to give notice as required by this Section
5.04 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this
Article V, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Such notice shall describe the
Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated
if necessary) of the Indemnifiable Loss that has been claimed against or may be
sustained by such Indemnified Person.

(b) Within 15 days of the receipt of notice from an Indemnified Person
in accordance with Section 5.04(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party
Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Person
of its election whether to assume responsibility for such Third-Party Claim
(provided that if the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified
Person of its election within 15 days after receipt of such notice from the
Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have elected not
to assume responsibility for such Third-Party Claim). An election not to assume
responsibility for such Third-Party Claim may only be made in the event of a
good faith dispute that a Third-Party Claim is not covered as an Indemnifiable
Loss under the grounds specified in Section 5.01 or 5.02, as the case may be.
Subject to Section 5.04(e) hereof, an Indemnifying Party may elect to defend or
to seek to settle or compromise, at such Indemnifying Party's own expense and by
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, any Third-Party
Claim, provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party must confirm in writing that it
agrees that the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification hereunder in
respect of such Third-Party Claim; and (ii) no compromise or settlement shall be
made without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent
shall not be reasonably withheld.

(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume
responsibility for the Third-Party Claim, pursuant to Section 5.04(b) above, (i)
the Indemnified Person shall cooperate in the defense or settlement or
compromise of such Third-Party Claim, including making available to the
Indemnifying Party any personnel and any books, records or other documents
within the Indemnified Person's control or which it otherwise has the ability to
make available that are necessary or appropriate for the defense of the
Third-Party Claim; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Person
reasonably informed regarding the strategy, status and progress of the defense
of the Third-Party claim; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall consider, in
good faith, the opinions and suggestions of the Indemnified Person with respect
to the

<PAGE> 28

Third-Party Claim.

After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Person
of its election to assume responsibility for a Third-Party Claim, such
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person under this
Article V for any legal or other costs or expenses (except costs or expenses
approved in advance by the Indemnifying Party) subsequently incurred by such
Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, that if the
defendants in any such claim include both the Indemnifying Party and one or more
Indemnified Persons and in such Indemnified Persons' reasonable judgment a
conflict of interest between such Indemnified Persons and such Indemnifying
Party exists in respect of such claim, such Indemnified Persons shall have the
right to employ separate counsel and in that event the reasonable fees and
expenses of such separate counsel (but not more than one separate counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party) shall be paid by such
Indemnifying Party.

(d) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for a
Third-Party Claim the Indemnified Person may defend or (subject to the following
sentence) seek to compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, an Indemnified Person may not settle or compromise any claim
without prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party, which shall have the
option within ten days following the receipt of such notice (i) to disapprove
the settlement, and to then assume all past and future responsibility for the
claim, including immediately reimbursing the Indemnified Person for prior
expenditures in connection with the claim; (ii) to disapprove the settlement and
continue to refrain from participation in the defense of the claim, in which
event the Indemnified Person may, in its sole discretion, proceed with the
settlement and the Indemnifying Party shall have no further right to contest the
amount or reasonableness of the settlement; (iii) to approve and pay the amount
of the settlement, reserving the Indemnifying Party's right to contest the
Indemnified Person's right to indemnity; or (iv) to approve and pay the
settlement. In the event the Indemnifying Party makes no response to such
written notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have elected option
(ii). When the Indemnifying Party chooses or is deemed to have chosen option
(ii) or (iii), the issue of whether the Indemnified Person has a right to
indemnity under this Article V shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to the
provisions of Section 9.14 hereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not prevail at
such arbitration, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the
Indemnified Person for all Indemnifiable Losses, plus interest on such amounts
at the lower of (i) 10% or (ii) the highest legal interest rate, accruing from
the date of payment by the Indemnified Person.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person reasonably
and in good faith determines that (i) the Indemnifying Party is not financially
capable to defend a Third-Party Claim and to provide full indemnification with
respect to any settlement thereof or (ii) the Indemnifying Party or such
Indemnifying Party's attorney is not adequately representing the Indemnified
Person's interests with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified
Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to
defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party
shall remain responsible for, and be

<PAGE> 29

bound by the resolution of, such Third-Party Claim.

(f) Any claim on account of an Indemnifiable Loss which does not
result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the
Indemnified Person to the applicable Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party
shall have a period of 15 days after the receipt of such notice within which to
respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 15-day
period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept
responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond
within such 15-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such
Indemnified Person shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to
such party under applicable law or under this Agreement.

(g) In addition to any adjustments required pursuant to Section 5.03,
if the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss shall, at any time subsequent to the
payment required by this Agreement, be reduced by recovery, settlement or
otherwise, the amount of such reduction, less any expenses incurred in
connection therewith, shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Person to the
Indemnifying Party.

(h) In the event of payment by an Indemnifying Party to any
Indemnified Person in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying
Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnified
Person as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified
Person may have any right or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against
any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other
party that may be liable. Such Indemnified Person shall cooperate with such
Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such
Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

(i) For so long as Surviving Corporation (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) is required to provide indemnification to any of the Indemnified
Persons (as defined in the Merger Agreement), Lakes shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted
Payment. If Lakes is unable, within 15 days of request, to repay in full any
claim made for indemnification by Company or any of its Affiliates pursuant to
this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, then for so long as any such claim or
any other claim for indemnification made by Company or any of its Affiliates
remains unpaid, Lakes shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guaranty or otherwise
become directly or indirectly liable with respect to any indebtedness.

(j) Prior to the Distribution Date, Company and Lakes shall enter into
a Collateral Trust Agreement and a Pledge and Security Agreement. Company is
hereby entitled to all the rights and benefits under those agreements in order
to secure Lakes' indemnification obligations under this Agreement, the Related
Agreements and the Merger Agreement.

<PAGE> 30

Section 5.05. Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article V
shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnified Person
of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any
Indemnifying Party.

Section 5.06. Survival of Indemnities. The obligations of each of Lakes
and Company under this Article V shall survive the sale or other transfer by it
of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, with
respect to any Indemnifiable Loss of the other related to such assets,
businesses or Liabilities.

<PAGE> 34

of law, or unless such Information is reasonably required to be disclosed in
connection with (x) any litigation with any third-parties or litigation between
the Mississippi Group and the Non-Mississippi Group, (y) any contractual
agreement to which members of the Mississippi Group or the Non-Mississippi Group
are currently parties, or (z) in exercise of either party's rights hereunder.

Section 7.08. Privileged Matters. Lakes and Company recognize that certain
legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior
to the Distribution Date have been and will be rendered for the benefit of both
the Mississippi Group and the Non-Mississippi Group and that both the
Mississippi Group and the Non-Mississippi Group should be deemed to be the
client for the purposes of asserting all Privileges. To allocate the interests
of each party in the Privileged Information, the parties agree as follows:

(a) Company shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion
or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which
relates solely to the Mississippi Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Company or Lakes.
Company shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or
waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information that relates
solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Mississippi Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Company or a Mississippi
Subsidiary, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or
under the control of Company or Lakes.

(b) Lakes shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion
or waiver of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which
relates solely to the Non-Mississippi Group, whether or not the Privileged
Information is in the possession of or under the control of Company or Lakes.
Lakes shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver
of all Privileges in connection with Privileged Information which relates solely
to the subject matter of any claims constituting Non-Mississippi Group
Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits
or other proceedings initiated against or by Lakes or a Non-Mississippi
Subsidiary, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession of or
under the control of Company or Lakes.

(c) Lakes and Company agree that they shall have a shared Privilege,
with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in this Section
7.07, with respect to all Privileges not allocated pursuant to the terms of
Sections 7.07(a) and (b). All Privileges relating to any claims, proceedings,
litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve both Lakes and Company, or
in respect of which both Lakes and Company retain any responsibility or
liability under this Agreement, shall be subject to a shared Privilege.

(d) No party may waive any Privilege which could be asserted under any
applicable law, and in which the other party has a shared Privilege, without the
consent of the

<PAGE> 35

other party, except to the extent reasonably required in connection with any
litigation with third-parties or as provided in subsection (e) below. Consent
shall be in writing, or shall be deemed to be granted unless written objection
is made within twenty (20) days after written notice upon the other party
requesting such consent.

(e) In the event of any litigation or dispute between a member of the
Mississippi Group and a member of the Non-Mississippi Group, either party may
waive a Privilege in which the other party has a shared Privilege, without
obtaining the consent of the other party, provided that such waiver of a shared
Privilege shall be effective only as to the use of Information with respect to
the litigation or dispute between the Mississippi Group and the Non-Mississippi
Group, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared Privilege with respect to
third-parties.

(f) If a dispute arises between the parties regarding whether a
Privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of either party,
each party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to
minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other party, and shall not
unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other party. Each
party specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent to waiver for any
purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(g) Upon receipt by any party of any subpoena, discovery or other
request which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Information
subject to a shared Privilege or as to which the other party has the sole right
hereunder to assert a Privilege, or if any party obtains knowledge that any of
its current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any
subpoena, discovery or other requests which arguably calls for the production or
disclosure of such Privileged Information, such party shall promptly notify the
other party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other party a
reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may
have under this Section 7.07 or otherwise to prevent the production or
disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(h) The transfer of the Non-Mississippi Group Books and Records and
the Mississippi Group Books and Records and other Information between Company
and its Subsidiaries and Lakes and its Subsidiaries is made in reliance on the
agreement of Lakes and Company, as set forth in Sections 7.06 and 7.07, to
maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and
maintain all applicable Privileges. The access to Information being granted
pursuant to Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, the agreement to provide witnesses
and individuals pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof and the transfer of Privileged
Information between Company and its Subsidiaries and Lakes and its Subsidiaries
pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that
has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.
