Item 14.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        The Nevada Revised Statutes provide that a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action (other than an action brought by or on behalf of the corporation as discussed below) by reason of his or her official position with the corporation provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action by or on behalf of the corporation by reason of his or her official position with the corporation provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the laws or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes further provides that a corporation generally may not indemnify an officer or director if it is determined by a court that such officer or director is liable to the corporation or responsible for any amounts paid to the corporation as a settlement, unless a court also determines that the officer or director is entitled to indemnification in light of all of the relevant facts and circumstances. The Nevada Revised Statutes require a corporation to indemnify an officer or director to the extent he or she is successful on the merits or otherwise successfully defends the action.

II-1



        Wynn Resorts' bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Nevada law. In addition, Wynn Resorts intends to enter into separate indemnification agreements, attached as Exhibit 10.14 hereto, with its directors and officers which would require Wynn Resorts, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise by reason of their status or service other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature. Wynn Resorts also intends to maintain director and officer liability insurance, if available on reasonable terms. These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of Wynn Resorts' officers and directors for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to as the Securities Act. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification of directors or officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is against public policy and, therefore, such indemnification provisions may be unenforceable.

        The Underwriting Agreement, attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, provides for indemnification by the Underwriters of Wynn Resorts and its officers and directors for certain liabilities, including matters arising under the Securities Act.

Item 15.    Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

        The following is a summary of the transactions by the Registrant during the past three years involving sales of the Registrant's securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:

II-2


        None of the foregoing transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering, and the Registrant believes that each transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and, or Regulation D promulgated thereunder or Rule 701 pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701.

Item 17.    Undertakings

        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

        Insofar as indemnification by the Registrant for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this Registration Statement or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. If a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

The term "Closing Transaction Documents" shall mean the documents set forth on Schedule III hereto, each of which shall be executed and dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2(b) herein).

        In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and of the interests of the parties in the transactions contemplated hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Representations and Warranties of the Company.

        The Company represents and warrants to each of the Underwriters as follows:

        (a) A registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-90600) with respect to the Shares has been prepared by the Company in conformity in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and the rules and regulations (the "Rules and Regulations") of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") thereunder and has been filed with the Commission. Copies of such registration statement, including any amendments thereto, the preliminary prospectuses contained therein and the exhibits, financial statements and schedules, as finally amended and revised, have heretofore been delivered by the Company to you. Such registration statement, as amended when it was declared effective by the Commission under the Act and the Rules and Regulations, including the financial statements and schedules thereto and any information omitted therefrom in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the Prospectus referred to below and together with any registration statement filed by the Company that is effective upon filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Act, is referred to herein as the "Registration Statement." The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act and no post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed as of the date of this Agreement. "Prospectus" means the form of prospectus first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b). Each preliminary prospectus included in the Registration Statement prior to the time it becomes effective is herein referred to as a "Preliminary Prospectus."

        (b) The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the state of Nevada, with corporate power and authority to own or lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement and to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Each of the subsidiaries of the Company as listed in Exhibit 21.1 to the Registration Statement (collectively, the "Subsidiaries") has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation or limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, with corporate or limited liability company power and authority to own or lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement. The Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any corporation, association or other entity other than the Subsidiaries listed on Exhibit 21.1 to the Registration Statement. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries are duly qualified to transact business in all jurisdictions in which the conduct of their business requires such qualification, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in any material adverse change in the business, properties, assets, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not occurring in the ordinary course of business (any such change, a "Material Adverse Change"). The outstanding membership interests and shares of capital stock of each of the Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued, the shares of capital stock of such Subsidiaries are fully paid and non-assessable and, except as set forth on Schedule 1(b), all such interests and shares are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and equities and claims, except for any lien, encumbrance, equity or claim granted or agreed to be granted pursuant to an Executed Transaction Document or a Closing Transaction Document; and, except as accurately described in all

2



material respects in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or as set forth on Schedule 1(b), there are no authorized or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase, or equity or debt securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

        (c) As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists only of 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 40,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of the date hereof, there are 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding. The outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable and have been issued in compliance with federal and state securities laws. None of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were issued in violation of any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company. The description of the Company's stock option, stock incentive and other stock plans or arrangements, and the options or other rights granted thereunder, set forth in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus fairly presents and accurately presents, in all material respects, the information required to be shown with respect to such plans, arrangements, options and rights. The Shares to be issued and sold by the Company have been duly authorized and when issued and paid for as contemplated herein will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; and, except as set forth in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, no preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights of stockholders or others exist with respect to any of the Shares or the issue and sale thereof by the Company. Neither the filing of the Registration Statement nor the offering or sale of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement gives rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any shares of Common Stock.

        (d) The table relating to the capitalization of the Company under the heading "Capitalization" in the Prospectus, including the footnotes thereto, (i) with respect to the actual capitalization of Valvino as of June 30, 2002 presents fairly the information contained therein and (ii) with respect to the expected capitalization of the Company as of June 30, 2002 on a pro forma basis giving effect to the sale of the Firm Shares and the expected concurrent sale of second mortgage notes by Wynn Las Vegas, LLC ("Wynn Las Vegas") and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. ("Capital Corp.") and with respect to the expected capitalization of the Company as of June 30, 2002 on a pro forma, as adjusted basis giving effect to the sale of the Firm Shares, the expected concurrent sale of second mortgage notes by Wynn Las Vegas and Capital Corp. and borrowings expected to be necessary to construct the Le Rêve Casino Resort, was prepared in good faith by the Company, and represents the best estimates and assumptions of the Company with respect to the information contained therein. All of the Shares conform to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus. The form of certificate for the Shares conforms to the corporate law of the state of Nevada.

        (e) The Commission has not issued an order preventing or suspending the use of any Prospectus relating to the proposed offering of the Shares nor, to the knowledge of the Company or its Subsidiaries, instituted proceedings for that purpose. The Registration Statement, at the time that it became effective and at all subsequent times up to and including the time of closing on the Closing Date (the "Closing Time"), complied, and the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto, as of their respective dates and at all subsequent times up to and including the Closing Time, will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations. At the time it became effective and at all subsequent times up to and including the Closing Time, the Registration Statement did not contain, and will not contain, any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit, and will not omit, to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. As of its date and at all subsequent times up to and including the Closing Time, the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented by any amendments and supplements thereto (including any Prospectus wrapper for use with offers in Canada) does not contain, and will not contain, any untrue statement of material fact and does not omit, and will not

3



omit, to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives, specifically for use in the preparation thereof. There are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which have not been described or filed as required.

        (f) The consolidated financial statements of Valvino Lamore, LLC ("Valvino") and its subsidiaries (together, "Valvino Lamore"), together with related notes and schedules as set forth in the Registration Statement and included in the Prospectus, present fairly the consolidated financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of Valvino Lamore, at the indicated dates and for the indicated periods. Such financial statements and related schedules have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles of accounting as applied in the United States, consistently applied throughout the periods involved, except as disclosed therein, and all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for such periods have been made. The financial and statistical data included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, including such data set forth under the captions "Capitalization" and "Selected Consolidated Financial Data," presents fairly the information shown therein and such data has been compiled on a basis consistent with the financial statements presented therein and the books and records of Valvino Lamore. The pro forma financial information included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein, have been properly compiled on the pro forma bases described therein, and, in the opinion of the Company, the assumptions used in the preparation thereof are reasonable and the adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions or circumstances referred to therein. No other financial statements or supporting schedules are required to be included in the Registration Statement, and there are no pro forma or as adjusted financial statements which are required to be included in the Registration Statement or Prospectus in accordance with Regulation S-X which have not been included as so required.

        The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken all reasonable steps necessary to secure their interests in, and protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of, such Intellectual Property, including without limitation entering into written confidentiality agreements with their employees and contractors.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the Intellectual Property of

8



any other person or entity that are required to be set forth in the Prospectus and are not described therein in all material respects.

        (t)    Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor to the Company's knowledge, any of its or their affiliates, has taken or may take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or which has constituted or which could reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the shares of Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters may engage in passive market making transactions in the Shares on the Nasdaq National Market in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

        (u)  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor to the Company's knowledge, any of its or their affiliates, has distributed or will distribute, prior to the later of any Option Closing Date and the completion of the Underwriters' distribution of the Shares, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares other than a Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Registration Statement.

        (v)  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is (i) or (after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Shares contemplated hereunder and the application of the net proceeds from such sale as described in the Prospectus) will be an "investment company" within the meaning of such term under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder or (ii) a "holding company," a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or of a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," as such terms are defined in the Public Utilities Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended (the "Public Utilities Act"), or is a "public utility," as such term is defined in the Federal Power Act, as amended (the "Federal Power Act").

The Company has no reason to believe that such insurance coverage cannot be renewed as and when such coverage expires or that similar coverage could not be obtained from similar insurers at a cost that would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change (other than as a result of general market conditions).

        (y)  Except for matters which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all presently applicable

9



provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, including the regulations and published interpretations thereunder ("ERISA").

Except for matters which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, each "pension plan" for which the Company or any Subsidiary would have any liability that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification.

        (z)  The Underwriters or Inspection & Valuation International, Inc., in their capacity as a consultant of the Underwriters, have been furnished with a copy of the plans and specifications for the construction of the Le Rêve Casino Resort that have been prepared to date, which plans and specifications are consistent in all material respects with the description thereof contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. The anticipated cost as of the Closing Date and any Option Closing Date, if any, of such construction (including interest, legal, architectural, engineering, planning, zoning, pre-opening and other similar costs) does not exceed the amounts allocated for such costs as set forth under the caption "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus. In addition, the other amounts set forth under the caption "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus are based upon reasonable assumptions as to all matters material to the estimates set forth therein and are not expected by the Company to exceed the amounts set forth for such items.

        (aa) The Project Budget (as defined in the Master Disbursement Agreement), as of the Closing Date and any Option Closing Date, if any, (i) is, to the Company's knowledge, based on reasonable assumptions as to all legal and factual matters material to the estimates set forth therein, (ii) is consistent with the provisions of the Operative Documents (as defined in the Master Disbursement Agreement) in all material respects, (iii) has been and will be prepared in good faith and with due care, (iv) sets forth, for each Line Item Category (as defined in the Master Disbursement Agreement), the total costs anticipated to be incurred through Final Completion (as defined in the Master Disbursement Agreement), (v) fairly represents the Company's expectation as to the maters covered thereby as of its date and (vi) sets forth a total amount of costs incurred or expected to be incurred in connection with the development, design, engineering, procurement, installation, construction and opening of the Le Rêve Casino Resort (as described in the Prospectus), including contingencies, which is equal to the Available Funds (as defined in the Master Disbursement Agreement).

        (bb) To the Company's knowledge and except as set forth on Schedule 1(bb) hereto, there are no affiliations or associations between any member of the NASD and any of the Company's officers, directors or securityholders. There are no business relationships or related-party transactions involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other person required to be described in the Prospectus which have not been described as required.

        (cc) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the best of the Company's knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or other person associated with or acting on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any beneficial owner of 10 percent or more of the capital stock of the Company has, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds, (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or (iv) made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment.

10



        (dd) The Shares have been approved for inclusion on the Nasdaq National Market, subject only to official notice of issuance.

        (ee) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or qualification or filing with, any court or governmental body or agency (including, without limitation, the Nevada State Gaming Commission, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, the Clark County Liquor and Gaming Licensing Board, the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada, the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China and any jurisdictions in which Directed Shares are offered), other than those obtained, is required in connection with the offering of the Directed Shares in any jurisdiction where the Directed Shares are being offered.

        (ff)  The Company has not offered, or caused Deutsche Bank or its affiliates to offer, Shares to any person pursuant to the Directed Share Program with the specific intent to unlawfully influence (i) a customer or supplier of the Company to alter the customer's or supplier's level or type of business with the Company, or (ii) a trade journalist or publication to write or publish favorable information about the Company or its business.

        Any certificate signed by an officer of the Company and delivered to the Representatives, Deutsche Bank or to counsel for the Underwriters shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Company to each Underwriter as to the matters set forth therein.

        The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 6 hereof, counsel to the Company and counsel to the Underwriters, will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations and hereby consents to such reliance.

2.    Purchase, Sale and Delivery of the Firm Shares.

        (a)  On the basis of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, and subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to the Underwriters and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase, at a price of $            per share, the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of each Underwriter in Schedule I hereof, subject to adjustments in accordance with Section 8 hereof.

        (b)  Payment for the Firm Shares to be sold hereunder is to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds against delivery of certificates therefor to the Representatives for the several accounts of the Underwriters. Such payment and delivery are to be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York at 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the fifth business day after the date of this Agreement or at such other time and date not later than five business days thereafter as you and the Company shall agree upon, such time and date being herein referred to as the "Closing Date." (As used herein, "business day" means a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which banks in New York, New York are open for business and are not permitted by law or executive order to be closed.) Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified in this Agreement is a further condition to the obligations of the Underwriters.

        (c)  In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase the Option Shares at the price per share as set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 2. The option granted hereby may be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice (i) at any time before the Closing Date and (ii) only once thereafter within 30 days after the date of this Agreement, by you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, to the Company setting forth the number of Option Shares as to which the several Underwriters are exercising the option and the time and date at which such certificates are to be delivered. The time and date at which certificates for Option Shares are to be delivered shall be determined by the Representatives but shall not be earlier than three nor later than 10 full business days after the exercise of such option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Date (such time and date being herein referred to as the "Option Closing Date"). If the date of exercise of the option is three or more days before the Closing Date, the notice of exercise shall set the Closing Date as the Option Closing Date. The number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be in the same proportion to the total number of Option Shares being purchased as the number of Firm Shares being purchased by such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares, adjusted by you in such manner as to avoid fractional shares. The option with respect to the Option Shares granted hereunder may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sale of the Firm Shares by the Underwriters. You, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, may cancel such option at any time prior to its expiration by giving joint written notice of such cancellation to the Company. To the extent, if any, that the option is exercised, payment for the Option Shares shall be made on the Option Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company in New York, New York drawn to the order of the Company.

3.    Offering by the Underwriters.

        It is understood that the several Underwriters are to make a public offering of the Firm Shares as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Representatives, in their sole judgment, deem it advisable to do so. The Firm Shares are to be initially offered to the public at the initial public offering price set forth in the Prospectus. The Representatives may from time to time thereafter change the public offering price and other selling terms; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 3 shall affect the Underwriters' obligations pursuant to Section 2 hereof. To the extent, if at all, that any

12



Option Shares are purchased pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Underwriters will offer them to the public on the foregoing terms.

        It is further understood that you will act as the Representatives for the Underwriters in the offering and sale of the Shares in accordance with a Master Agreement Among Underwriters entered into by you and the several other Underwriters.

        (c)  The Company shall cooperate with the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters to qualify the Shares for sale under (or obtain exemptions from the application of the qualification requirements of) the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably have designated and shall make such applications, file such documents, and furnish such information as may be reasonably required for that purpose, provided the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or required to file such a consent.

to the Representatives at or before the Closing Date, three signed copies of the Registration Statement and all amendments thereto including all exhibits filed therewith, and shall deliver to the Representatives such number of copies of the Registration Statement (including such number of copies of the exhibits filed therewith that may reasonably be requested) and of all amendments thereto, as the Representatives may reasonably request.

        (e)  The Company shall comply with the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Shares as contemplated in this Agreement and the Prospectus. If during the period in which a prospectus is required by law to be delivered by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur as a result of which, in the judgment of the Company or in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters, it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or, if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with any law, the Company promptly shall prepare and file with the Commission an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus so that the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented shall not, in the light of the circumstances when it is so delivered, be misleading, or so that the Prospectus shall comply with the law.

14


        (f)    The Company shall make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives, as soon as it is practicable to do so, but in any event not later than 15 months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) in reasonable detail, covering a period of at least 12 consecutive months beginning after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the requirements of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158 of the Rules and Regulations and shall advise you in writing when such statement has been so made available.

        (g)  Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall furnish to the Underwriters, as soon as they have been prepared by or are available to the Company, a copy of any unaudited interim financial statements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any period subsequent to the period covered by the most recent financial statements appearing in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

        (h)  During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the 180th day following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Representatives), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open "put equivalent position" within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of, any shares of Common Stock, options or warrants to acquire shares of the Common Stock or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock (other than as contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the Shares); provided, however, that the Company may issue shares of its Common Stock or options to purchase its Common Stock, or Common Stock upon exercise of options, pursuant to any stock option, stock incentive or other stock plan or arrangement described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and may file a registration statement in respect thereof, but only if the holders of such shares, options, or shares issued upon exercise of such options, agree in writing not to sell, offer, dispose of or otherwise transfer any such shares or options during such 180 day period without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Representatives).

        (i)    The Company shall use its best efforts to include the Shares on the Nasdaq National Market.

        (j)    The Company has caused each of its officers, directors and stockholders (excluding Baron Asset Fund), and Aruze Corp. to furnish to you, on or prior to the date of this Agreement, a letter or letters, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto ("Lockup Agreements").

        (k)  The Company shall apply the net proceeds of its sale of the Shares as set forth in the Prospectus under the caption "Use of Proceeds" and shall file such reports with the Commission with respect to the sale of the Shares and the application of the proceeds therefrom as may be required in accordance with Rule 463 under the Act.

        (l)    The Company shall not invest, or otherwise use the proceeds received by the Company from its sale of the Shares in such a manner as would require the Company or any of the Subsidiaries to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act.

        (m)  The Company shall maintain a transfer agent and a registrar for the Common Stock.

        (n)  The Company shall not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or that has constituted or could reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company.

        (o)  The Company shall comply with all applicable securities laws and, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, all other applicable laws, rules and regulations, in each case, in each jurisdiction in which the Directed Shares are offered in connection with the Directed Share Program.

15

7. Indemnification.

        (a)  The Company agrees:

20


        (b)  Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding or in responding to a subpoena or governmental inquiry related to the offering of the Shares, whether or not the Company or such director, officer or controlling person is a party to any action or proceeding; provided, however, that each Underwriter will be liable in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Underwriter may otherwise have.

21


        (c)  In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 7, such person (the "indemnified party") shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying party") in writing. No indemnification provided for in Section 7(a), (b) or (d) shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section 7(c) if the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related and was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice, and the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party or parties from any liability which it or they may have to the indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than on account of the provisions of Section 7(a), (b) or (d). In case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay as incurred (or within 30 days of presentation) the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the indemnified party in the event (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such proceeding or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of commencement of the action. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for all such indemnified parties. Such firm shall be designated in writing by you in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a) or (d) and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, the indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

        (d)  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries, whether direct or indirect, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless Deutsche Bank and each person, if any, who controls Deutsche Bank within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (i) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any material prepared by or with the consent of the Company for distribution to Participants in connection with the Directed Share Program, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) caused by the failure of any Participant to pay for and accept delivery of Directed Shares that the Participant has agreed to purchase; or (iii) related to, arising out of, or in connection

22



with the Directed Share Program other than losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or expenses relating thereto) that are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Deutsche Bank; provided, however, that in the case of clause (i) above, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein. The indemnity agreement set forth in this paragraph shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries may otherwise have.

        (e)  To the extent the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 7(a), (b) or (d) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

        The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7(e) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7(e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 7(e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), (i) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Shares purchased by such Underwriter and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in this Section 7(e) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

        (f)    Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 7 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 and the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of

23



(i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, the Company, its directors or officers or any persons controlling the Company, (ii) acceptance of any Shares and payment therefore hereunder and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to any Underwriter, or any person controlling any Underwriter, or to the Company, its directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 7.

8.    Default by Underwriters.

        If on the Closing Date or any Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter shall fail to purchase and pay for the portion of the Shares which such Underwriter has agreed to purchase and pay for on such date (otherwise than by reason of any default on the part of the Company), you, as Representatives of the Underwriters, shall use your reasonable efforts to procure within 36 hours thereafter one or more of the other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase from the Company such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms set forth herein, the Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase. If during such 36 hours you, as such Representatives, shall not have procured such other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase the Shares agreed to be purchased by the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then (a) if the aggregate number of shares with respect to which such default shall occur does not exceed 10% of the Shares to be purchased on the Closing Date or any Option Closing date, as the case may be, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in proportion to the respective numbers of Shares which they are obligated to purchase hereunder, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase, or (b) if the aggregate number of shares of Shares with respect to which such default shall occur exceeds 10% of the Shares to be purchased on the Closing Date or any Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Company or you as the Representatives of the Underwriters shall have the right, by written notice given within the next 36-hour period to the parties to this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters or of the Company except to the extent provided in Sections 5 and 8 hereof (provided that if such default occurs solely with respect to Option Shares after the Closing Date, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Shares or any Option Shares purchased prior to such termination). In the event of a default by any Underwriter or Underwriters, as set forth in this Section 8, the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, may be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as you, as Representatives, may determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. As used in the Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter. Any action taken under this Section 8 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

9.    Notices.

        All communications hereunder shall be in writing and, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be mailed, delivered, telecopied or telegraphed and confirmed as follows: if to the Underwriters, to Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., 31 West 52nd Street New York, New York 10019; Attention: Syndicate Manager and General Counsel; if to the Company, to Wynn Resorts, Limited, 3145 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, Nevada 89109; Attention: General Counsel.

10.    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by you:

        (a)  by notice to the Company at any time prior to the Closing Date or any Option Closing Date (if different from the Closing Date and then only as to Option Shares) if any of the following has occurred: (i) since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, in the judgment of the Representatives, any Material Adverse Change or any

24


development that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, (ii) any attack on, or any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving, the United States or declaration of war or national emergency or other national or international calamity or crisis or change in economic or political conditions if the effect of such attack, outbreak, escalation, acts, declaration, emergency, calamity, crisis or change would, in the Representatives' judgment, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Shares in the manner and on the terms described in the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares, (iii) the suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally or other instruments on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market or other exchange or limitation on prices for securities or other instruments on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market, (iv) the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation of any statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other governmental authority which in your opinion materially and adversely affects or may materially and adversely affect the business or operations of the Company, (v) the declaration of a banking moratorium by United States or New York or Nevada state authorities, (vi) any downgrading, or placement on any watch list for possible downgrading, in the rating of any of the Company's debt securities by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Exchange Act), (vii) the suspension of trading of any securities of the Company by any exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Commission, or any other governmental authority (viii) the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation of any statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other governmental authority which in your opinion materially and adversely affects, or will materially and adversely affect, the business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (ix) the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as in the judgment of the Representatives may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured; or

SCHEDULE 1(bb)


NASD AFFILIATIONS

        1.    From July 1999 to October 2001, Ronald Kramer served as a managing director at Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein, Inc. and its predecessor ("Dresdner"). In November 2001, shortly after Mr. Kramer's departure from Dresdner, Dresdner and Mr. Kramer entered into an arrangement providing that if a certain investment banking client with whom Mr. Kramer had developed a relationship while at Dresdner (the "Unrelated Client") consummated a financing, Mr. Kramer would receive a percentage of any net fees the Unrelated Client paid to Dresdner. In exchange, Mr. Kramer agreed to provide certain financial consulting and advisory services to the Unrelated Client. Dresdner also agreed to reimburse Mr. Kramer for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the provision of such services. Approximately six months after leaving Dresdner, Mr. Kramer became Director and President of the Company. Neither the Company nor the offering of the Shares has any relation to or connection with the Unrelated Client or the arrangement between Dresdner and Mr. Kramer. On September 23, 2002, the Unrelated Client, with Dresdner acting as initial purchaser, priced a $153 million private placement of 14.5% senior notes due 2009. The private placement closed on October 8, 2002. Mr. Kramer will receive no more than $375,000 pursuant to the consulting arrangement, to be paid by January 8, 2003 (approximately 90 days after closing).

        2.    Baron Asset Fund, which owned a 4.992% interest in the Company as of June 30, 2002, is an affiliate of Baron Capital, Inc., an NASD Member.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        This letter is an amendment and restatement of that certain letter, dated August 19, 2002 (the "Original Commitment Letter") from General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital") to Bank of America, National Association ("Bank of America"). The terms of this letter supersede the Original Commitment Letter in its entirety which shall no longer have any force or effect.

        GE Capital is pleased to confirm its commitment to Bank of America, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. ("Deutsche Bank Securities") to participate as a "Lender" in the FF&E Facility, subject to (i) the terms and conditions of this letter, (ii) the negotiation and execution of satisfactory documentation, (iii) GE Capital's receipt (at the time of funding) of a particpation fee as described in the GE Participant Fee Letter, (iv) the terms and conditions outlined in the Summary of Terms included in the Confidential Offering Memorandum, dated July 2002 (the "Summary"), as modified hereby, and (v) GE Capital's approval of its lien position in the Aircraft relative to other Lenders in the FF&E Facility, its rights to various payments arising from or related to the Aircraft, and its other rights and remedies, including voting rights with respect to the Aircraft. If there is a conflict between the terms of this letter and the terms of the Summary, the terms of this letter shall control.

        The amount of the GE commitment is $25 million which shall be used by the Borrower, along with certain other loan Advances under the FF&E Facility, to make an intercompany loan to World Travel in the amount of approximately $38 million to refinance the Aircraft which is currently owned by Wells Fargo Northwest, National Association, as Aircraft Trustee, on behalf of World Travel, as trustor. The total of the entire FF&E Facility is approximately $188.5 million. GE also acknowledges that Bank of America, Deutsche Bank and Wynn Las Vegas, LLC reserve the right to reject any and all commitments.

        This letter is provided to you with the knowledge and understanding that Bank of America and Deutsche Bank Securities (collectively, the "Arrangers"), but no other persons, may rely thereon and is solely for the benefit of the Arrangers. The undersigned consents to the filing of this letter with the



Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, this opinion may not be relied upon by any person other than the Arrangers.

Required Lenders

 

Any rights or remedies exercisable by the Collateral Agent upon any event of default under the Loan Agreement or the Security Agreement and any modification or amendment of, or waiver under, any of the Loan Documents (except as provided in the next sentence) will require the consent of Lenders holding at least a majority of the principal amount of the outstanding Loans.

Summary of terms and conditions

Terms defined in this Section 3 "Summary of terms and conditions" are defined for purposes of this Section 3 "Summary of terms and conditions" only and meanings attributable to such defined terms should not be applied to capitalized terms used elsewhere in this Memorandum

Project   The development and construction of a casino/resort planned to include more than 2,500 hotel rooms, more than 100,000 square feet of gaming space, an approximately 130 acre newly designed golf course and various other amenities for approximately $2.45 billion on the site of the old Desert Inn Resort & Casino located in Las Vegas, Nevada (the "Project").

Construction Arrangements

 

The Borrower will enter into a construction contract with Marnell Corrao Associates, Inc. (the "General Contractor") to construct predominantly all of the improvements involved in the Project (excluding furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure and the golf course). The construction contract shall commit the General Contractor to complete such construction by the Completion Date described below for a guaranteed maximum price no greater than $902 million, and will include an unallocated contingency of at least $45.0 million (such contract being hereafter referred to as the "Construction Contract"). The Borrower also will enter into separate construction contracts with other contractors for the parking structure and the golf course, each of which also shall call for completion by the Completion Date for a guaranteed maximum price no greater than a specified sum (which, in the case of the parking structure, shall not exceed $11.5 million and in the case of the golf course shall not exceed $22.5 million).

Commencement Date

 

Construction of the Project is expected to begin concurrently with the Closing Date, which is expected to be on or around September 30, 2002.

Completion Date

 

The date on which completion and the "Opening" (to be mutually agreed upon and defined in the Disbursement Agreement) of the Project has occurred shall be hereafter referred to as the "Completion Date".

Anticipated Completion Date

 

The anticipated Completion Date is expected to be on or around March, 2005.

Completion Guarantee

 

The completion guarantee (the "Completion Guarantee") will be provided by a special purpose entity (the "Completion Guarantor"). The Completion Guarantee shall assure completion of the Project, which shall include completion in full of the construction of the Project (including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure and the golf course), availability of the initial working capital contemplated in the budget, receipt of all permits and licenses necessary to open and operate the Project and the presence of trained staff to achieve the Completion Date (collectively, the "Completion Obligations").

 

 

 

 

17



 

 

The Completion Guarantee will be capped at $50.0 million and will be (i) cash collateralized by a first priority security interest in an interest-bearing account holding at least $50.0 million in cash or other permitted investments, or (ii) secured by a letter of credit with a face amount of at least $50.0 million or other collateral of equivalent quality and liquidity acceptable to the Senior Lenders. On the Completion Date, the completion guarantee will be released and any remaining amount of the collateral security therefore shall be released to or as directed by the Borrower.

Scope Changes

 

The Borrower shall agree that, as a condition to the approval of any change orders that will increase the anticipated costs of the Project, the Borrower shall fund the proceeds of equity contributions made to the Borrower into an account pledged to the Senior Lenders in an amount equal to the anticipated cost of such change orders, which amounts so funded shall be applied toward such anticipated increased costs.

Project Liquidity Reserve

 

The Borrower or a special purpose affiliate thereof (the "Liquidity Reserve Provider") will establish a securities account subject to a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Senior Lenders. The account will be funded with cash or permitted investments in an amount equal to $30.0 million and will secure Borrower's performance of the Completion Obligations and, after the Completion Date, will be available to meet the Borrower's working capital needs. None of the Borrower's direct or indirect shareholders shall be required to commit to replenish such account after disbursement of funds therefrom. Amounts remaining in the liquidity account will be released at such time as the Borrower shall have met the EBITDA targets set forth in the Closing Date projections for a full fiscal year after the Completion Date of the Project.

Payment and Performance Bond

 

The General Contractor will obtain and maintain a payment and performance bond from an issuer with a size and credit rating reasonably acceptable to the Senior Lenders (the "Payment and Performance Bond") in respect of its obligations under the Construction Contract in an amount of not less than $150.0 million. Unless otherwise agreed by the Senior Lenders, the Borrower shall require the General Contractor to cause each subcontractor (with more than the lesser of 5% of the total construction price and $25.0 million in aggregate fees) to, upon execution of its subcontract, provide a payment and performance bond from an issuer with a size and credit rating reasonably acceptable to the Senior Lenders to secure its obligations under its respective subcontract.

Construction Contract Guarantee

 

The obligations of the General Contractor under the Construction Contract will be guaranteed by Austi, Inc. (the "Construction Contract Guarantee" and, together with the Completion Guarantee, the Project Liquidity Reserve and the Payment and Performance Bond, the "Project Credit Support").

 

 

The Construction Contract Guarantee will guarantee all of the General Contractor's obligations under and in accordance with the Construction Contract but will be unsecured.

Disbursement Agreement

 

The Agent, the agent on the FF&E Facility, the indenture trustee for the Second Mortgage Notes, the Borrower and the Disbursement Agent will enter into a disbursement agreement which will establish the sequence of funding and will include, among other things, the conditions to every advance of funds.

Types and Amounts of Credit Facilities


 


 


 

Senior Term Loan Facility

 

A seven-year term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility") in an aggregate principal amount equal to $250.0 million (the loans thereunder, the "Term Loans"). Prior to the Completion Date, there will be no amortization of the Term Loans. From and after the Completion Date, the Term Loans shall be repayable in quarterly installments in amounts to be agreed upon until the date that is seven years after the Closing Date.

Availability

 

The Term Loans shall be made in one or more drawings between the Closing Date and the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Term Loan Commitment Termination Date"). No more than one draw shall be permitted in any calendar month. No Term Loan once repaid may be reborrowed. The Term Loan commitment will expire on the Term Loan Commitment Termination Date.

Maturity

 

Seven years after the closing date.

Purpose

 

The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used to finance the development and construction of the Project, including pre-opening costs and expenses, and to pay related fees and expenses.

Revolving Credit Facility

 

A six year revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility" and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the "Credit Facilities") in an aggregate principal amount equal to $750.0 million (the loans thereunder, the "Revolving Credit Loans").

Availability

 

The Revolving Credit Facility shall be available on a revolving basis during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the sixth anniversary thereof (the "Revolving Credit Termination Date"); provided the Term Loan Facility shall be fully drawn prior to the making of any Revolving Credit Loans.

Letters of Credit

 

A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not in excess of $25.0 million shall be available for the issuance of standby letters of credit (the "Letters of Credit") by one or more Senior Lenders to be selected in the syndication process (each such Senior Lender in such capacity, an "Issuing Lender"). The face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the earlier of (i) one year after the date of issuance and (ii) five business days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above).

 

 

Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans) on the same business day. To the extent that the Borrower does not so reimburse the Issuing Lender, the Senior Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender on a pro rata basis.

 

 

 

 

20



Swing Line Loans

 

From and after substantial completion of the Project, a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not in excess of $10.0 million shall be available for swing line loans (the "Swing Line Loans") from the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the "Swing Line Lender") on same-day notice. Any such Swing Line Loans will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Each Senior Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall acquire, under certain circumstances, an irrevocable and unconditional pro rata participation in each Swing Line Loan.

Optional Conversion to Term Loans

 

At such time as the total extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility equal or exceed $100.0 million, the Initial Arrangers (by majority decision) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert between $100.0 million and $400.0 million of the outstanding Revolving Loans to Term Loans under the Term Loan Facility, on the same terms and conditions as the existing Term Loans. The amount so converted on the first such conversion shall be a minimum of $100.0 million and $25.0 million increments in excess thereof, and the amount so converted on the second and each subsequent conversion shall be a minimum of $50.0 million and $25.0 million increments in excess thereof. The commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will be permanently reduced by the amount of the Revolving Credit Loans converted into Term Loans in accordance with the foregoing.

Maturity

 

Six years after the closing date.

Purpose

 

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to finance the development and construction of the Project, to pay related fees and expenses (including pre-opening costs and expenses) and, following the Completion Date, for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries.

Certain Payment Provisions

 

 

 

Fees and Interest Rates

 

As set forth on Annex A-I.

Voluntary Prepayments and Commitment Reductions

 

Loans may be prepaid in whole or in part (in minimum amounts and upon notice periods to be agreed upon), without premium or penalty; provided that Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Loans that are prepaid on any day other than the last day of an interest period applicable thereto shall be accompanied by customary breakage costs. Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans shall be applied ratably in inverse order of maturity and may not be reborrowed. To the extent any such payments or commitment reductions would be made prior to the Completion Date, the Project must satisfy the In Balance Requirement (as defined below).

Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions

 

The following amounts shall be applied to prepay the Term Loans and reduce the Revolving Credit Facility:

 

 

(i)

100% of the net cash proceeds of any sale or issuance or incurrence of indebtedness by any Credit Party after the Closing Date, other than the incurrence of indebtedness under the FF&E Facility, the Second Mortgage Notes and certain customary exceptions to be agreed upon;

 

 

 

 

21



 

 

(ii)

100% of the net cash proceeds from asset sales by the Credit Parties (or sale of the Phase II Land (as defined below) prior to release thereof from the collateral), subject to permitted releases of collateral, reinvestment rights and customary exceptions to be agreed upon;

 

 

(iii)

certain equity proceeds in a percentage to be determined from an issuance of equity by the Credit Parties, subject to certain customary exceptions to be agreed upon;

 

 

(iv)

100% of insurance recovery of condemnation proceeds, net of expenses incurred to obtain such recovery or proceeds and subject to the senior rights of the FF&E facility with respect to the specific collateral financed with proceeds of the FF&E facility, subject to reinvestment rights and certain customary exceptions to be agreed upon; and

 

 

(v)

75% of excess cash flow (to be defined in a mutually satisfactory manner) for each fiscal year of the Borrower (commencing with the fiscal year in which the Completion Date occurs), which percentage shall be reduced to 50% for each fiscal year during which the Borrower achieves a total debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.5 to 1.0 or lower. Such prepayment shall be eliminated from and after such time as the Borrower achieves total debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.5 to 1.00 for a given fiscal year.

 

 

All such amounts shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans and, second, to the permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility. Each such prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied ratably in accordance with the then outstanding amounts thereof and may not be reborrowed.

Collateral

 

The obligations of the Credit Parties in respect of the Credit Facilities shall be secured by:

 

 

(i)

subject to compliance with applicable gaming laws, a first priority pledge of (i) all of the capital stock of the Borrower and Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC, (ii) all of the capital stock owned by the Borrower and Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC and (iii) subject to obtaining any necessary governmental approvals, all of the capital stock in Desert Inn Water Company and Desert Inn Improvement Company (collectively, the "Water Companies") (it being understood that to the extent any of the foregoing pledges are prohibited by applicable laws, the relevant interests shall be subject to a negative pledge agreement);

WYNN RESORTS AGREEMENT
Dated as of                            , 2002

        This WYNN RESORTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made by Wynn Resorts, Limited, a Nevada corporation ("Wynn Resorts"), in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the "Trustee") for the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes (the "Notes") issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below).

        2.    Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas desire to finance the development and construction of the Project with, among other things, the proceeds of the issuance by Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. of Notes issued under the Indenture. In connection with such financing, Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., as joint and several obligors, Desert Inn Water Company, LLC, Wynn Design & Development, LLC, Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC, Las Vegas Jet, LLC, World Travel, LLC, Palo, LLC and Valvino Lamore, LLC, as guarantors, and the Trustee have entered into an indenture, dated as of the date of this Agreement (the "Indenture").

        3.    It is a condition to the issuance of the Notes under the Indenture that Wynn Resorts shall have executed and delivered this Agreement.

        4.    Wynn Resorts acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the issuance of the Notes under the Indenture and the use of the proceeds thereof in connection with the development, construction and operation of the Project.

        5.    All terms capitalized but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture, as in effect from time to time.

(1)
incur Indebtedness in excess of $10.0 million in the aggregate (other than Project Related Indebtedness, Gaming Redemption Indebtedness or Replacement Aircraft Indebtedness) or guarantee the Indebtedness of any of its Affiliates (other than a guarantee of the Floor Plan Financing or Replacement Aircraft Indebtedness), unless:

Wynn Resorts concurrently becomes the Parent Guarantor of the Notes by executing and delivering the Parent Guarantee in substantially the form of the guarantee of such other Indebtedness, if any, or if none, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A, and

(b)
Wynn Resorts' Parent Guarantee of the Notes ranks senior to or is pari passu with the obligations of Wynn Resorts under the Indebtedness or the guarantee by Wynn Resorts of the Affiliate's Indebtedness, or
(2)
grant any security interests in any of its assets or properties (other than a security interest in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and security interests granted in

        For purposes of this Agreement, "Floor Plan Financing" means the floor plan financing to be obtained by Kevyn, LLC in respect of the Ferrari and Maserati automobile dealership forming part of the Project and located on the Project Site in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $5.0 million; provided that neither Issuer, no Restricted Entity nor any Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Entity:

(2)
is directly or indirectly liable as a guarantor or otherwise as to such Indebtedness, or

(3)
constitutes the lender of such Indebtedness.

        SECTION 2.    Automatic Release Provisions.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 1 above, the restrictions contained in Section 1 shall automatically cease to apply to Wynn Resorts, and any Parent Guarantee or Parent Security Agreement will be automatically released and Wynn Resorts shall have no further liability thereunder, from and after such time as either:

(1)
(a)     the Completion Date has occurred,
(b)
no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to such release,

(c)
both immediately prior to such release and after giving pro forma effect to such release (as if, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, such release had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period):

(i)
the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of Wynn Las Vegas ending immediately prior to the release date is 3.0 to 1.0 or less, and

the senior secured long-term Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is rated BB+ or higher by S&P and Ba1 or higher by Moody's,

(2)
(a)     no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to that release,

(b)
both the lenders under the Credit Agreement and the Person whose Indebtedness Wynn Resorts guaranteed or granted security interest to secure (thereby triggering Wynn Resorts' obligations to enter into the Parent Guarantee or the Parent Security Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement) concurrently release the guarantee or security interests, as applicable, granted by Wynn Resorts in their favor, and

(c)
Wynn Resorts delivers an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee confirming that the conditions in (a) and (b) of this clause (2) have been satisfied.

The Trustee shall take such actions as Wynn Resorts may request, at the expense of Wynn Resorts, to evidence the forgoing release, including without limitation the return of assets pledged as collateral and the execution and delivery of related instruments of transfer, lien releases, reconveyances, termination statements and any similar documents and instruments.

        SECTION 3.    Amendments to Wynn Put Agreement.    Wynn Resorts hereby agrees that it shall not amend, modify, waive or otherwise change, or consent or agree to any amendment, modification, waiver or other change to, or otherwise fail to enforce, or terminate or abandon, any of the provisions of the Wynn Put Agreement, if such amendment, modification, waiver or other change, failure to enforce, termination or abandonment (individually or collectively with all such amendments, modifications, waivers and other changes, failures to enforce, terminations or abandonments taken as a whole) would:

(1)
have a material adverse affect on the ability of Wynn Las Vegas, any Restricted Entity or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to develop, construct or operate the Project,

(2)
cause the Completion Date to occur or result in that date occurring after the Outside Completion Deadline,

materially impair the rights or remedies of the holders of the Notes under the Indenture or the Collateral Documents, or

        SECTION 4.    Separateness from Issuers, Restricted Entities, their Restricted Subsidiaries and the Completion Guarantor. Wynn Resorts hereby agrees that, for so long as there continue to be any outstanding Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (the "Bank Documents") or under the Indenture or any Collateral Document (the "Indenture Documents"), it shall comply with each of the following:

(1)
Wynn Resorts shall not conduct business in the name of any of Wynn Las Vegas, the Restricted Entities, any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries or the Completion Guarantor (collectively, the "Wynn Group Members"), nor shall it refer to any of the Wynn Group Members as a division, department or other subdivision of Wynn Resorts that is not recognized as a separate and distinct legal entity under applicable law. Wynn Resorts shall have separate stationery, invoices and checks in its own name and shall observe all organizational formalities. Wynn Resorts shall not refer to employees of a Wynn Group Member as employees of Wynn Resorts or of any Affiliate of Wynn Resorts that is not a Wynn Group Member.

(2)
Wynn Resorts shall not hold out the Wynn Group Members to be other than legal entities separate and distinct from Wynn Resorts, and Wynn Resorts shall not hold out that the assets of the Wynn Group Members are available to satisfy the liabilities of Wynn Resorts. In any communications with creditors of Wynn Resorts that refer in any way directly or indirectly to the assets, liabilities, operations or results from operations of the Wynn Group Members, Wynn Resorts shall ensure that such communications accurately describe the separate existence of the Wynn Group Members and the fact that the assets of the Wynn Group Members are not available to satisfy the liabilities of Wynn Resorts.

(3)
Wynn Resorts shall maintain books, records and accounts separate and apart from each of the Wynn Group Members. In any consolidated financial statements of Wynn Resorts that refer to assets, liabilities, operations or results from operations of the Wynn Group Members, Wynn Resorts shall, in footnotes or otherwise, describe the assets, liabilities, operations and results from operations of the Wynn Group Members separately from those of Wynn Resorts and further shall note that (i) each Wynn Group Member is organized as a legal entity separate and distinct from Wynn Resorts, (ii) there is no agreement or other arrangement or relationship under which or pursuant to which the assets of a Wynn Group Member have been pledged or otherwise made available to satisfy the obligations of Wynn Resorts or any of its Affiliates that are not Wynn Group Members, and (iii) each Wynn Group Member has issued or guaranteed indebtedness that is secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of said Wynn Group Member (except as otherwise permitted by the terms of the Bank Documents and the Indenture Documents).

(4)
In addition to the foregoing, Wynn Resorts shall not take any other action that would reasonably be expected to call into question the separate identity of each Wynn Group Member from Wynn Resorts, or to create or increase any risk that the assets of any Wynn Group Member will be consolidated with those of Wynn Resorts or any other Person (other than another Wynn Group Member) under applicable federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

        SECTION 5.    Representations and Warranties.    Wynn Resorts hereby represents and warrants as follows:
