The Purchaser's failure to close when required shall render the remainder of the Agreement null and void.

In consideration of the total purchase price of $10,000,000 for the foregoing purchases of stock, the Purchaser shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase up to twenty acres of Mississippi Gaming Corporation's Diamondhead, Mississippi Property to be used for a senior citizen and/or assisted living and/or aging complex for an additional purchase price of $75,000 per acre, or a maximum total purchase price of $1,500,000. Mississippi Gaming Corporation will provide two acres of land contiguous to the facility for an open park. The location of the twenty acres shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Purchaser and Mississippi Gaming Corporation, but shall not be in that acreage approved by the Mississippi Gaming Commission for gaming. This right to purchase shall terminate two years from the date of inception of the right ("the Option Period"). The acreage purchased by the Purchaser cannot be used for gambling or gaming of any type or transferred or conveyed to any person or entity for such a purpose. Any deed conveying acreage to the Purchaser will include a prohibition to this effect. In the event a third party tenders an offer for the entire Diamondhead Property prior to Purchaser's payment of the Option price and the Board of Directors of Mississippi Gaming Corporation accepts the third party's offer, the Option will be deemed to have expired. In the event, Mississippi Gaming Corporation sells Diamondhead Property for less than Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars per acre in an arms' length transaction during the Purchaser's Option Period, the Purchase Price for the Purchaser's Property will be lowered so that the Purchaser is not paying more than another buyer of the commercial Property.

The proceeds from the foregoing sales of Common Stock are intended to be used to pay down a substantial portion of the debt that is secured by liens on the Diamondhead Property, to pay Diamondhead Property taxes, to pay fees and expenses of outside auditors and accountants to prepare and file the Company's periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to pay legal fees and other fees and expenses relating to the foregoing transactions, to obtain a master plan for the Diamondhead Property and for general corporate purposes. The proceeds from the initial sale of Common Stock will be used to pay plaintiff/lienholders who are owed payment in the approximate amount of $2,207,500, pursuant to an Amendment to Settlement Agreement entered into in Arneault et al. v. Diamondhead Casino Corporation (In the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (C.A. No. 1:16-cv-00989-LPS).
