COMMERCIAL PAPER DEALER AGREEMENT
This Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement (the Agreement )
sets forth the understandings between Circus Circus Enterprises,
Inc. (the Issuer ) and Merrill Lynch Money Markets Inc. (the
Dealer ) in connection with the Dealer s services as the
Issuer s agent, on a non-exclusive basis, to solicit and receive
offers to purchase the Issuer s commercial paper notes.
Section 1. Appointment of Non-Exclusive Agent. The Issuer
hereby appoints the Dealer as its agent on a non-exclusive basis
for the purpose of soliciting and receiving offers to purchase
from the Issuer from time to time its commercial paper notes
issued under the Paying Agency Agreement (as defined), maturing
not later than 270 days from date of issue (the Notes ) in an
aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed the amount
authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors of the
Issuer, and the Dealer accepts such appointment, on the terms,
and subject to the conditions, set forth in this Agreement. The
Notes will be issued under an Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement
dated as of October 9, 1997 (the Paying Agency Agreement )
between the Issuer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as Issuing and
Paying Agent (the Paying Agent ), and will be issued in
denominations of $250,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof. The Notes may be issued as certificated noted or
as book-entry notes, in each case in accordance with the terms of
the Paying Agency Agreement. The Issuer may sell Notes directly
to the Dealer as principal for resale to others. So long as this
Agreement shall remain in effect the Issuer shall not, without
the consent of the Dealer, offer, solicit or accept offers to
purchase, or sell, any Notes except in transactions with the
Dealer or one or more other dealers each of which is, at the time
it engages in such a transaction with the Issuer, a party to an
agreement with the Issuer that contains provisions substantially
identical to those in Section 3 of this Agreement. The Dealer
acknowledges that the Issuer is entering into such agreements,
each dated as of the date hereof, with BancAmerica Robertson
Stephens and Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, and the
Issuer hereby undertakes to provide the Dealer prompt notice of
any other dealer with which it enters into such an agreement.
Section 2. Issuance and Purchase of the Notes. If the
Dealer and the Issuer shall agree upon the sale of any Notes to
or through the Dealer (including, but not limited to, agreement
with respect to the price, principal amount, maturity and
interest or discount rate thereof), (i) instructions to the
Paying Agent to complete, authenticate and deliver the Notes
shall be given in the manner described in the Paying Agency
Agreement and (ii) the authentication and delivery to the Dealer
of such Notes by the Paying Agent against payment of the purchase
price therefor shall constitute the issuance of such Notes by the
Issuer.
Section 3. Offering of the Notes; Restrictions on Transfer
(a) The Dealer agrees with the Issuer that (i) it will deliver a
Private Placement Memorandum (as hereinafter defined) to each
prospective investor in the Notes upon or prior to the initial
sale of a Note or Notes to such investor, (ii) it will not
solicit offers for, or offer or sell, Notes by any form of
general solicitation or general advertising or in any manner
involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act ),
and Rule 506 thereunder, and (iii) it will solicit offers for
Notes only from, and will offer Notes only to, (x) institutional
investors that it reasonably believes are accredited investors
within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act or
(y) persons that it reasonably believes are qualified
institutional buyers, as defined in Rule 144A under the
Securities Act ( QIBs ), and, in either case, who, in purchasing
Notes, may be deemed to have represented and agreed as provided
in paragraphs (1) through (7) of Section 3(c).
(b) Offers and sales of the Notes by the Issuer
through the Dealer acting as agent for the Issuer shall be
subject to the restrictions described in a legend appearing as
part of the Private Placement Memorandum used in connection with
such offers and sales and on each certificated note offered and
sold pursuant to this Agreement . Such legend shall appear in
substantially the form set forth in Section 3(c)(6) of this
Agreement.
(c) Each Private Placement Memorandum shall contain
paragraphs in substantially the following form:
Each purchaser of a Note will be deemed to have
represented and agreed as follows:
(1) It understands that the Notes are being issued
only in transactions not involving any public
offering within the meaning of the Securities Act;
(2) It is (A) an institutional investor which is an
Accredited Investor, as defined in Rule 501(a)
of Regulation D under the Securities Act (an
Institutional Accredited Investor ), or a bank,
as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities
Act, or a savings and loan association or other
institution of the type referred to in Section
3(a)(5)(A) of the Securities Act, that is acting
as a fiduciary in purchasing the Notes for the
account of an Institutional Accredited Investor,
which has such knowledge and experience (or, if
such Institutional Accredited Investor is acting
as a fiduciary, it is a fiduciary with sole
investment discretion having such knowledge and
experience) in financial and business matters that
it is capable (whether acting for its own account
or in such fiduciary capacity) of evaluating the
merits and risks of investing in such Notes, has
had access to such information as it deems
necessary in order to make an informed investment
decision and is not purchasing the Notes with a
view to, or for sale in connection with, any
distribution; or (B) in the case of sales of Notes
pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, a
qualified institutional buyer, as defined in
Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a QIB ), or a
QIB purchasing the Notes on behalf of one or more
other QIBs;
(3) If in the future it (or any other investor or any
other fiduciary or agent representing it) decides
to sell such Notes prior to maturity, said Notes
will be sold only in a transaction exempt from
registration under the Securities Act in a minimum
amount of $250,000 and only (i) to the Issuer or
to the Dealer or another dealer authorized by the
Issuer (each, an Authorized Dealer ), none of
which shall have any obligation to acquire such
Notes, (ii) through an Authorized Dealer to an
institutional investor approved by such Authorized
Dealer as an Institutional Accredited Investor or
a QIB or (iii) to a QIB pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act;
(4) It understands that, although the Dealer (or any
other Authorized Dealer) or the Issuer may
repurchase Notes, none of such entities is
obligated to do so, and, accordingly, the
purchaser (or any such other investor) should be
prepared to hold the Notes until maturity;
(5) It acknowledges that the Notes sold to it by the
Dealer may be sold to it pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act;
(6) It understands that any Notes issued in a
certificated form will bear a legend substantially
as follows:

FIDUCIARY OR AGENT WITH SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION
HAVING SUCH KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE) IN FINANCIAL
AND BUSINESS MATTERS THAT IT (OR SUCH FIDUCIARY OR
AGENT) IS CAPABLE OF EVALUATING THE MERITS AND
RISKS OF INVESTING IN SUCH NOTE, OR (B) A
QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER ( QIB ) WITHIN THE
MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE ACT WHICH IS
ACQUIRING NOTES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR ONE OR
MORE ACCOUNTS, EACH OF WHICH IS A QIB; AND THE
PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE SELLER MAY RELY
UPON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE ACT PROVIDED BY
RULE 144A. BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A NOTE, THE
PURCHASER SHALL ALSO BE DEEMED TO AGREE THAT ANY
RESALE OR OTHER TRANSFER THEREOF WILL BE MADE ONLY
(A) IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION
UNDER THE ACT, EITHER (1) TO THE ISSUER OR TO
MERRILL LYNCH MONEY MARKETS INC. OR ANOTHER PERSON
DESIGNATED BY THE ISSUER AS A PLACEMENT AGENT FOR
THE NOTES (COLLECTIVELY, THE PLACEMENT AGENTS ),
NONE OF WHICH SHALL HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO ACQUIRE
SUCH NOTE, (2) THROUGH A PLACEMENT AGENT TO AN
INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR OR A QIB, OR (3)
TO A QIB PURSUANT TO RULE 144A OF THE ACT, AND (B)

Placement Memorandum or incorporated therein by
reference that the Issuer could provide without
unreasonable effort or expense.

of the sale of the Notes are not currently contemplated to be
used for the purpose of buying, carrying or trading securities
within the meaning of Regulation T and the interpretations
thereunder by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System. In the event that the Issuer determines to use such
proceeds for the purpose of buying, carrying or trading
securities, whether in connection with an acquisition of another
company or otherwise, the Issuer shall give the Dealer at least
five business days prior written notice to that effect.
Thereafter, in the event that the Dealer purchases Notes as
principal and does not resell such Notes on the day of such
purchase, to the extent necessary to comply with Regulation T and
the interpretations thereunder, the Dealer will sell such Notes
only to offerees it reasonably believes to be QIBs or to QIBs it
reasonably believes are acting for other QIBs, in each case in
accordance with Rule 144A.

offer to purchase Notes (including any purchase by the Dealer as

information in the documents incorporated by reference or
referred to therein, when read in its entirety, with each
statement being deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent
it is modified or superseded by any statement in a subsequently
dated document constituting part of the Private Placement

fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.
(i) The Notes satisfy the requirements set forth in

practicable a Private Placement Memorandum containing business
and financial information concerning the Issuer and a description

updated or revised memorandum (such Private Placement Memorandum,
together with any amendments or supplements thereto, including
information incorporated therein by reference, if any, is herein
referred to as the Private Placement Memorandum ).

Issuer, it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the
Private Placement Memorandum as then amended or supplemented to
comply with applicable law, the Issuer will notify the Dealer as
promptly as practicable and, in any event, prior to any
subsequent issuance of Notes, will prepare and furnish to the
Dealer a revision or supplement to the Private Placement
Memorandum satisfactory in all material respects to the Dealer,
that will correct such statement or omission or effect such
compliance.
(d) The Issuer will, whether or not any sale of Notes

obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Paying Agency
Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and
expenses of the Dealer s counsel.
(e) The Issuer will notify the Dealer promptly in
writing of any downgrading, or of the Issuer s receipt of any
notice of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review
for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the
possible change, in the rating accorded any of the Issuer s
securities by any of the Rating Agencies.
(f) The Issuer agrees promptly from time to time to
take such action as the Dealer may reasonably request to qualify
the Notes for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as the Dealer may reasonably request
and to maintain such qualifications for as long as the Dealer
shall reasonably request. The Issuer also agrees to reimburse
the Dealer for any reasonable fees or costs (including reasonable
out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in so
qualifying the Notes.
(g) The Issuer will not sell, offer for sale or
solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any
security (as defined in the Securities Act) which could be
integrated with the sale of the Notes in a manner which would
require the registration under the Securities Act of the offer
and sale of such Notes.
(h) The Issuer will not solicit any offer to buy or
offer to sell Notes by means of any form of general solicitation
or general advertising, within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under
the Securities Act or otherwise, including: (x) any
advertisement, article, notice or other communication published
in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over
television or radio; and (y) any seminar or meeting whose
attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or
general advertising.
(i) The Issuer will furnish to the Dealer such
additional information as you may reasonably request.
(j) At any time when the Issuer is not subject to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the Issuer shall make available, upon request, to any
holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of any Notes
the information required to be delivered to such persons pursuant
to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act and will furnish to
the Dealer, upon its request, copies of such information.
Section 6. Indemnity and Contribution. The Issuer agrees
to (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Dealer and each person, if
any, who controls the Dealer within the meaning of either Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the Dealer and each such other person
are collectively referred to in this Section 6 as the
Indemnified Party ), from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or caused by any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Private Placement Memorandum (as amended or
supplemented if the Issuer shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto), or arising out of 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, and (ii) reimburse the Indemnified Party for all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) as they are incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or
liability. The foregoing indemnity and reimbursement obligation
shall not apply in respect of any statement in or omission from
the Private Placement Memorandum (as so amended or supplemented)
based on information pertaining to the Dealer furnished in
writing to the Issuer by the Dealer, or on behalf of the Dealer.
The Issuer shall not, without the Indemnified Party s prior
written consent, effect any settlement of any pending or
threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party
is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by the Indemnified Party, unless such settlement
(i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party
from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding and for which indemnity could have been sought
hereunder and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an
admission of fault, culpability or failure to act, by or on
behalf of the Indemnified Party. If the indemnification provided
for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient in respect
of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein,
then the Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Issuer, on
the other hand, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
the Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Dealer, on the one hand,
and the Issuer, on the other hand, or, if such allocation is not
permitted by applicable law, to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of each of
the parties and any other relevant equitable considerations.
Section 7. Payment and Delivery. (a) Payment for Notes
sold to or through the Dealer pursuant to this Agreement shall be
made by the Dealer in immediately available funds payable to the
Paying Agent for the account of the Issuer in such manner and at
such time as provided in the Paying Agency Agreement, at the
offices of the Paying Agent. Delivery of Notes sold to or
through the Dealer hereunder shall be made against payment of the
purchase price therefor by the Paying Agent to the Dealer through
the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or in definitive
form payable to the purchaser (and in such denominations as may
reasonably be requested by the Dealer) by 2:15 p.m. New York time
on the date agreed upon for delivery.
(b) In the event the Issuer shall direct the Paying
Agent to cease issuing Notes, the Paying Agent shall be
instructed by the Issuer to issue such Notes as the Dealer shall
certify were sold within sixty (60) minutes after the Dealer s
receipt of written notice of such cessation and for which the
Dealer had the prior agreement of the Issuer pursuant to Section
1 of this Agreement. The Dealer agrees upon receipt of any such
cessation notice to immediately cease effecting transactions in
Notes; provided, however, that this provision shall have no
effect with respect to Notes purchased by the Dealer as principal
from the Issuer.
Section 8. Conditions of the Dealer s Obligation. If the
Dealer and the Issuer shall agree upon the sale of any Notes
pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement, the Dealer s obligation
to purchase Notes as principal and the obligation of any other
purchaser to purchase Notes will be subject to the accuracy of
the representations and warranties on the part of the Issuer
herein and to the performance and observance by the Issuer of all
agreements herein contained on its part to be performed and
observed (in the case of the Dealer s obligation to solicit
offers to purchase Notes, at the time of such solicitation, and,
in the case of the Dealer s or any other purchaser s obligation
to purchase Notes, at the time the Issuer accepts the offer to
purchase such Notes and at the time of purchase).

Agreement and, if provided by telecopy, followed by prompt
delivery of such documents:
(i) an executed copy of the Paying Agency
Agreement;
(ii) a certified copy of resolutions of the Board
