shall be no later than the fifth business day after satisfaction or, if

"Closing Date"), unless another date is agreed to by Harrah's, Harveys and
the Sellers' Representative.

         Section 1.3 Purchase Price.

          (a) The Sellers shall be entitled to a total transaction

Net Working Capital between that set forth on Schedule 1.3(b) hereto and
the Net Working Capital as of the Determination Date, plus (vii) any
payments up to $8,100,000 made pursuant to the Vision Iowa Project
Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of December 19, 2000, substantially

to but not including the Closing Date), minus (xvi) the amount of any
obligation to make any payment (whether in cash or other property) agreed
or committed to by Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, whether existing on

(xvii) for the purpose of paying out the total consideration due to the
stockholders of Harveys at the Closing, without duplication, the pro rata
amount of Total Transaction Consideration as determined in (i) through
(xvi) above to be paid at or after the Closing to other Harveys
stockholders as of the Closing Date that have not executed Joinders in
accordance with Section 6.13 prior to the Closing Date. "Net Working
Capital" shall equal (x) the sum of all current assets (other than cash and
cash equivalents), minus (y) the sum of all current liabilities (other than
short-term debt indebtedness (including current portion of long-term debt)
and other obligations referred to in clause (ii) above), it being expressly
agreed for purposes of avoiding any double counting that any amount or item
which would otherwise be included in the calculation of Net Working Capital
but is otherwise an addition or deduction pursuant to the calculation of
Total Transaction Consideration shall be excluded from the calculation of
Net Working Capital, both as of the Determination Date and as of February
28, 2001. By way of example only and for purposes of clarification, Exhibit
1.3(b) sets forth a calculation of the Total Transaction Consideration
using the Harveys balance sheet as of February 28, 2001.

          (c) On or prior to the Closing Date, Harveys shall deliver a
calculation of the Total Transaction Consideration as of the Closing Date,
using the form of calculation thereof as illustrated in Exhibit 1.3(b)
hereto (the "Closing Schedule"). The Total Transaction Consideration shall
be paid by Harrah's to Sellers in accordance with this Section 1.3 on the
Closing Date. Notwithstanding any change with respect to Harveys'
accounting policies or procedures subsequent to the date hereof, the
accounting policies and procedures used to calculate Total Transaction
Consideration or to produce the Closing Statement shall be the same as
those in effect on the date hereof.

          (d) Post-Closing Adjustment. If within twenty days following the
Closing Date Harrah's has not given to the Sellers' Representative notice
of its objection to the Closing Schedule (such notice must contain a
statement of the basis of Harrah's' objection), then the Total Transaction
Consideration as calculated pursuant to the foregoing shall be deemed
accepted. If Harrah's gives such notice of objection, then the issues in
dispute will be submitted to Deloitte & Touche LLP, certified public
accountants (the "Accountants"), for resolution and the Accountants shall
issue a report with respect to such issue not later than 20 days after such
submission. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for
resolution, (i) each party will furnish to the Accountants such workpapers
and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the
Accountants may request and are available to that party or its Subsidiaries
(or its independent public accountants), and will be afforded the
opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the
determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants; (ii)
the determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to
both parties by the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the
parties; and (iii) Harrah's and the Sellers will each bear 50% of the fees
of the Accountants for such determination; provided, however, that if the
Accountants determine that the Total Transaction Consideration should be
adjusted downward by an amount in excess of $5.0 million or upward by an
amount in excess of $5.0 million, then Sellers, in the case of a downward
adjustment, or Harrah's, in the case of an upward adjustment, shall bear
the fees of such Accountants.

          (e) On the third business day following the earlier of (i) the
final determination by the Accountants of the amount of the Total
Transaction Consideration pursuant to Section 1.3(d), if such Total
Transaction Consideration is greater than the aggregate of the payments
made pursuant to Section 1.3(b), Harrah's will pay the difference to
Sellers and holders of Options cashed out pursuant to Section 2.1 and other
Harveys stockholders that have not executed Joinders and whose shares have
been repurchased by Harveys at Closing, to be allocated on a per share
basis consistent with the manner utilized at Closing, and if such Total
Transaction Consideration is less than such aggregate amount, Sellers and
holders of Options cashed out pursuant to Section 2.1 and other Harveys
stockholders that have not executed Joinders and whose shares have been
repurchased by Harveys at Closing, on a per share basis consistent with the
manner utilized at Closing, will pay the difference to Harrah's. All
payments will be made together with interest at 7.0% compounded daily
beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date of payment. Payments
must be made in immediately available funds. Payments to Harrah's must be
made by wire transfer to such bank account as Harrah's will specify.

         Section 1.4 Closing Deliveries.

          (a) Sellers will deliver to Harrah's on the Closing Date:

              (i) certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed (or
accompanied by duly executed stock powers), with signatures guaranteed by a
commercial bank, for transfer to Harrah's;

              (ii) the resignation of Thomas J. Barrack, Jr. as the sole
director of Harveys and each of its Subsidiaries;

              (iii) FIRPTA certificates in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Harrah's;

              (iv) a certificate executed by each Seller to the effect that
such Seller's representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement
were true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this
Agreement and are accurate in all material respects as of the Closing Date
as though made on and as of the Closing Date, except for changes
contemplated or permitted by this Agreement; and

          (b) Harrah's will deliver to Sellers on the Closing Date:

              (i) the Total Transaction Consideration as determined in
Section 1.3, via wire transfer as directed by the Sellers' Representative
in writing; and

              (ii) the certificates required by Sections 7.2(a) and 7.2(b).

          (c) Harrah's will deliver to Harveys on the Closing Date:

              (i) the capital contribution to Harveys as specified in
Section 2.1; and

              (ii) any amounts required to repurchase shares of other
Harveys stockholders that have not executed Joinders pursuant to Section
6.13 that are being repurchased at Closing.

                                ARTICLE II.
                EFFECT OF THE CLOSING ON OPTIONS OF HARVEYS

         Section 2.1 Harveys Option Plan. Concurrently with the Closing,
each unexpired and unexercised outstanding option, whether or not then
vested or exercisable in accordance with its terms, to purchase shares of
Harveys Common Stock ("Options") previously granted by Harveys or its
Subsidiaries under Harveys' 1999 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Harveys Stock
Option Plan") will become exercisable in full and each holder of an Option
shall be entitled to receive from Harveys in cancellation thereof a payment
(subject to applicable income tax withholding, employer taxes and a
holdback amount set forth in the Sellers' Representative Certificate) in an
amount equal to (i) the excess, if any, of the applicable Class A
Consideration or Class B Consideration, as the case may be, over the per
share exercise price of such Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of
shares of Harveys Common Stock subject to such Option (the "Option
Settlement Amount"). The Option Settlement Amount, less the holdback amount
set forth in the Sellers' Representative Certificate, shall be paid in cash
concurrently with the Closing. In order to facilitate such payment,
Harrah's concurrently with the Closing shall acquire shares of capital
stock from Harveys for an aggregate purchase price equal to the aggregate
Option Settlement Amount (plus applicable income tax withholding, employer
taxes and heldback amounts) payable to all such Harveys Option holders. The
Option Settlement Amount shall be paid in cash concurrently with the
Closing. From and after the Closing, there shall be no outstanding and
exercisable Options. The surrender of an Option shall be deemed a release
of any and all rights the holder had or may have in respect of such Option.
The Harveys Stock Option Plan and any and all other agreements, plans,
programs or arrangements of Harveys and its Subsidiaries that provide for
the issuance or grant of Options or any other interest in respect of the
capital stock of Harveys or capital stock of or other ownership interest in
any of its Subsidiaries shall terminate as of the Closing. Immediately
following the Closing, no holder of an Option or any participant in the
Harveys Stock Option Plan or any other agreement, plan, program or
arrangement of Harveys shall have any right thereunder to acquire equity
securities or other ownership interests of Harveys or any Subsidiary
thereof.

                               ARTICLE III.
                 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HARVEYS

         Harveys represents and warrants to Harrah's that the statements
contained in this Article III are true and correct except as set forth
herein and in the disclosure schedule delivered by Harveys to Harrah's on
or before the date of this Agreement (the "Harveys Disclosure Schedule").
The Harveys Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in paragraphs
corresponding to the numbered and lettered paragraphs contained in this
Article III and the disclosure in any paragraph shall qualify other
paragraphs in this Article III.

         Section 3.1 Organization of Harveys and its Subsidiaries. Each of
Harveys and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization and has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited
liability company power and authority to carry on its business as now being
conducted and as proposed to be conducted prior to the Closing. Each of
Harveys and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business
and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the property owned,
leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it
makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure
to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, condition (financial or
otherwise), results of operations or prospects of Harveys and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any of the three separate businesses
operated as the Harveys Resort & Casino -- Lake Tahoe, Harveys Casino/Hotel
Council Bluffs and Bluffs Run Casino (a "Harveys Material Adverse Effect");
provided, however, that the following, individually and in the aggregate,
shall be excluded from the definition of "Harveys Material Adverse Effect"
and from any determination as to whether any Harveys Material Adverse
Effect has occurred or may occur: any reduction, in and of itself, in
historic or prospective revenues, net income or EBITDA of Harveys C.C.
Management Company, Inc. or Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel/Casino. Harveys has
delivered to Harrah's a true and correct copy of the Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of Harveys and each of its Subsidiaries, in each
case as amended to the date of this Agreement. Assuming compliance by
Harrah's, its Subsidiaries and their key employees with all Harveys Gaming
Laws (as defined in Section 3.15(b)) (including obtaining all necessary
consents and approvals), the respective organizational documents of
Harveys' Subsidiaries do not contain any provision that would limit or
otherwise restrict the ability of Harrah's, following the Closing, from
owning or operating such Subsidiaries on the same basis as Harveys. Except
as set forth in Harveys SEC Reports (as defined in Section 3.4(a)) filed
prior to the date hereof or as disclosed in Section 3.1 of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries directly
or indirectly owns (other than ownership interests in Harveys or in one or
more of its Subsidiaries) any equity or similar interest in, or any
interest convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any
corporation, partnership, joint venture or other business association or
entity. As used in this Agreement, the word "Subsidiary" means, with
respect to any party, any corporation or other organization, whether
incorporated or unincorporated, of which (i) such party or any other
Subsidiary of such party is a general partner or (ii) at least a majority
of the securities or other interests having by their terms ordinary voting
power to elect a majority of the Board of Directors or others performing
similar functions with respect to such corporation or other organization is
directly or indirectly owned or controlled by such party or by any one or
more of its Subsidiaries, or by such party and one or more of its
Subsidiaries.

         Section 3.2 Capitalization.

          (a) The authorized capital stock of Harveys consists of
20,000,000 shares of Harveys common stock, consisting of 10,000,000 shares
of Harveys Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Harveys Class
A"), and 10,000,000 shares of Harveys Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01
per share ("Harveys Class B" and, together with Harveys Class A, "Harveys
Common Stock"), and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value
per share ("Harveys Preferred Stock"). As of the date hereof, (i) 68,876
shares of Harveys Class A were issued and outstanding, all of which are
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) 7,268,427 shares of
Harveys Class B were issued and outstanding, all of which are validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and (iii) no shares of Harveys
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding. Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule sets forth the number of shares of Harveys Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon exercise of Options granted and outstanding as
of the date hereof. Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule also
sets forth, for the Harveys Stock Option Plan, the dates on which Options
under the plan were granted, the number of Options granted on each such
date and the exercise price thereof. Since February 28, 2001, Harveys has
not made any grants under the Harveys Stock Option Plan. As of the date of
this Agreement, Harveys has not granted any stock appreciation rights or
any other contractual rights the value of which is derived from the
financial performance of Harveys or the value of shares of Harveys Common
Stock. There are no obligations, contingent or otherwise, of Harveys or any
of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares
of Harveys Common Stock or the capital stock or ownership interests of any
Subsidiary or to provide funds to or make any material investment (in the
form of a loan, capital contribution or otherwise) in any such Subsidiary
or any other entity other than guarantees of bank obligations or
indebtedness for borrowed money entered into in the ordinary course of
business. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock (including shares
which have been issued upon exercise of outstanding options) or other
ownership interests of each of Harveys' Subsidiaries are duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, except as disclosed in
Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule, all such shares and
ownership interests are owned by Harveys or another Subsidiary of Harveys
free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims, pledges,
agreements, limitations on Harveys' voting rights, charges or other
encumbrances or restrictions on transfer of any nature, other than imposed
by applicable gaming laws.

          (b) There are no bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness
of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries having voting rights (or convertible
into securities having such rights) ("Voting Debt") issued and outstanding.
Except as set forth in Section 3.2(b) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule or
as reserved for future grants of options or restricted stock under the
Harveys Stock Option Plan as of the date hereof, (i) there are no shares of
capital stock of any class of Harveys, or any security exchangeable into or
exercisable for such equity securities, issued, reserved for issuance or
outstanding; (ii) there are no options, warrants, equity securities, calls,
rights, commitments or agreements of any character to which Harveys or any
of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound obligating Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be
issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other
ownership interests (including Voting Debt) of Harveys or any of its
Subsidiaries or obligating Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries to grant,
extend, accelerate the vesting of or enter into any such option, warrant,
equity security, call, right, commitment or agreement; and (iii) there are
no voting trusts, proxies or other voting agreements or understandings to
which Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or they
are bound with respect to the shares of capital stock of Harveys. All
shares of Harveys Common Stock subject to issuance as specified in this
Section 3.2(b) are duly authorized and, upon issuance on the terms and
conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are
issuable, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Harveys
shall have the right at the Closing pursuant to the Harveys stock option
and restricted stock agreements to repurchase all of the outstanding shares
of Harveys Common Stock, other than those held by any Seller, for the same
price per share as the price to be paid to Sellers.

          (c) Section 3.2(c) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule sets forth
all stockholders of Harveys and the number of shares of Harveys Common
Stock owned by each.

         Section 3.3 Authority; No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

          (a) Harveys has all requisite corporate power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions to which it is
a party that are contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery
of this Agreement by Harveys and the consummation by Harveys of the
transactions to which it is a party that are contemplated by this Agreement
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of
Harveys. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Harveys
and, assuming this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation
of the other parties hereto, constitutes the valid and binding obligation
of Harveys, enforceable against Harveys in accordance with its terms,
subject, as to enforcement, to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereinafter in effect
affecting creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles of
equity.

          (b) Other than as disclosed in Section 3.3(b) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Harveys does not, and the consummation by Harveys of the transactions to
which it is a party that are contemplated by this Agreement will not, (i)
conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, any provision of
the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of Harveys or the comparable
charter or bylaws of any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) result in any violation
or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time, or
both) a default (or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or
acceleration of any obligation or loss of any material benefit) under, or
require a consent or waiver under, any of the terms, conditions or
provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other
agreement, instrument or obligation to which Harveys or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their properties
or assets may be bound, or (iii) subject to the governmental filings and
other matters referred to in Section 3.3(c), conflict with or violate any
permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute,
law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Harveys or any of its
Subsidiaries or any of its or their properties or assets, except in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii) for any such breaches, conflicts,
violations, defaults, terminations, cancellations, accelerations, losses or
failures to obtain any such consent or waiver which (x) are not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably likely to have a Harveys
Material Adverse Effect or (y) would not materially impair or materially
delay the Closing.

          (c) No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency,
commission, gaming authority or other governmental authority or
instrumentality ("Governmental Entity") is required by or with respect to
Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by Harveys or the consummation by Harveys or
such Subsidiaries of the transactions to which it is or they are a party
that are contemplated hereby, except for (i) the filing of the pre-merger
notification report under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act
of 1976, as amended ("HSR Act"), (ii) the filing of the Information
Statement (as defined in Section 3.16 below) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in accordance with the Exchange Act, (iii)
any approvals and filing of notices required under the Harveys Gaming Laws
(as defined in Section 3.15(b)), (iv) such consents, approvals, orders,
authorizations, permits, filings, declarations or registrations related to,
or arising out of, compliance with statutes, rules or regulations
regulating the consumption, sale or serving of alcoholic beverages or the
renaming or rebranding of the operations of Harveys and its Subsidiaries,
(v) such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, permits,
registrations, declarations and filings as may be required under applicable
state securities laws, (vi) such filings and consents as may be required
under any environmental health or safety law or regulation pertaining to
any notification, disclosure or required approval triggered by the Closing
or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the failure of which to
make or obtain, respectively, would not be reasonably likely to result in a
Harveys Material Adverse Effect, (vii) such other filings, consents,

          (c) Representations.

              (i) Employee Plans

                      (A) No Pension Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA
             or the minimum funding requirements of Section 412 of the
             Code. Each Pension Plan and each related trust that is
             intended to qualify under the provisions of Code Section
             401(a) and 501(a) has so qualified during the period from its
             adoption to date.

                      (B) Each Employee Plan has been maintained in
             material compliance with its terms and, both as to form and in
             operation, with the requirements prescribed by any and all
             applicable laws, including without limitation ERISA and the
             Code to the extent applicable.

                      (C) (i) The methodologies used by Harveys to
             determine participants' benefits and Harveys' liabilities
             under Harveys' Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, Senior
             Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and Section 7 of the
             Change of Control Plan, as such methodologies have been
             disclosed to Harrah's, are a reasonable application of the
             terms of such plans, (ii) Harveys' calculation of the
             participants' benefits and Harveys' liabilities thereunder as
             disclosed to Harrah's are accurate and consistent with such
             methodologies and (iii) Harveys has consistently applied such
             methodologies in the past. The seven participants in Harveys'
             Change of Control Plan listed in that certain Resolution
             2001-9 of the Board of Directors of Harveys Casino Resorts
             Reaffirming Participants in Harveys Casino Resorts Change of
             Control Plan, attached hereto as Exhibit 3.14(c) are the only
             participants under Harveys' Change of Control Plan.

              (ii) Multiemployer Plans

                      (A) Neither Harveys nor any ERISA Affiliate has, at
             any time, withdrawn from a Multiemployer Plan in a "complete
             withdrawal" or a "partial withdrawal" as defined in Sections
             4203 and 4205 of ERISA, respectively, so as to result in a
             liability, contingent or otherwise (including without
             limitation the obligations pursuant to an agreement entered
             into in accordance with Section 4204 of ERISA), of Harveys or
             any ERISA Affiliate which has not been fully satisfied.
             Neither Harveys nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in, or is
             a successor or parent corporation to an entity that has
             engaged in, a transaction described in Section 4212(c) of
             ERISA. If, as of the Closing Date, Harveys (and all ERISA
             Affiliates) were to withdraw from all Multiemployer Plans to
             which it (or any of them) has contributed or been obligated to
             contribute, it (and they) would incur no material liabilities
             to such plans under Title IV of ERISA.

                      (B) To the best of Harveys' knowledge, with respect
             to each Multiemployer Plan: (1) no such Multiemployer Plan has
             been terminated or is in reorganization under ERISA so as to
             result, directly or indirectly, in any liability, contingent
             or otherwise, of Harveys or any ERISA Affiliate under Title IV
             of ERISA; and (2) no proceeding has been initiated by any
             person (including the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation) to
             terminate any Multiemployer Plan.

              (iii) Welfare Plans. None of Harveys, any ERISA Affiliate or
any Welfare Plan has any present or future obligation to make any payment
to, or with respect to any present or former employee of Harveys or any
ERISA Affiliate pursuant to, any retiree medical benefit plan, or other
retiree Welfare Plan, except to the extent required by the Code or ERISA.
Harveys and its ERISA Affiliates have performed all of their obligations
with respect to all self-funded and self-administered Welfare Plans and
have made appropriate entries in their financial statements for all
obligations and liabilities under such Welfare Plans that have accrued but
are not yet due, including without limitation, reserves for incurred but
unreported claims. All required contributions to, and payments from each
Welfare Plan have been made on a timely basis. No event has occurred and no
circumstances exist that could result in a material increase in premium
costs of any Welfare Plans that are insured or in a material increase in
benefit costs of any Welfare Plans that are self-insured.

              (iv) Deductibility of Payments. There is no contract,
agreement, plan or arrangement covering any employee or former employee of
Harveys (with respect to its relationship with such entities) that,
individually or collectively, provides for the payment by Harveys of any
amount (i) that is not deductible under Section 162 or 404 of the Code or
(ii) that is an "excess parachute payment" pursuant to Section 280G of the
Code.

              (v) Litigation. There is no material action, order, writ,
injunction, judgment or decree outstanding or claim, suit, litigation,
proceeding, arbitral action, governmental audit or investigation, relating
to or seeking benefits under any Employee Plan that or to the best
knowledge of Harveys, is pending against Harveys, any ERISA Affiliate or
any Employee Plan (other than routine claims for benefits).

              (vi) No Acceleration or Creation of Rights. Except as
provided in Section 2.1 or disclosed in Section 3.14 of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Harveys nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
result in the acceleration or creation of any rights of any current or
former employee of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries to benefits under any
Employee Plan (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the
vesting or exercisability of any stock options, the acceleration of the
vesting of any restricted stock, the acceleration of the accrual or vesting
of any benefits under any Pension Plan or the acceleration or creation of
any rights under any severance, parachute or change in control agreement).

             Section 3.15 Compliance with Gaming Laws.

          (a) Each of Harveys and its Subsidiaries, and each of their
respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to
Harveys' best knowledge), officers, persons performing management functions
similar to officers and, to Harveys' best knowledge, partners hold all
permits, registrations, findings of suitability, licenses, variances,
exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and approvals of all
Governmental Entities (including all authorizations under Harveys Gaming
Laws, the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 and the Shipping Act of 1916 and
Certificates of Inspection issued by the U.S. Coast Guard), necessary to
conduct the business and operations of Harveys and each of its
Subsidiaries, each of which is in full force and effect in all material
respects, except for such permits, registrations, findings of suitability,
licenses, variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and
approvals the failure of which to hold would not, individually or in the
aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect
(the "Harveys Permits") and no event has occurred which permits, or upon
the giving of notice or passage of time or both would permit, revocation,
non-renewal, modification, suspension, limitation or termination of any
Harveys Permit that currently is in effect the loss of which either
individually or in the aggregate would be reasonably likely to have a
Harveys Material Adverse Effect. Each of Harveys and its Subsidiaries, and
each of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee
directors, only to Harveys' best knowledge), officers, persons performing
management functions similar to officers and, to Harveys' best knowledge,
partners, are in compliance with the terms of the Harveys Permits, except
for such failures to comply, which singly or in the aggregate, would not,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harveys
Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the Harveys SEC Reports
filed prior to the date of this Agreement, the businesses of Harveys and
its Subsidiaries are not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance
or regulation of any Governmental Entity (including, without limitation,
any Harveys Gaming Laws), except for possible violations which individually
or in the aggregate do not and would not be reasonably likely to have a
Harveys Material Adverse Effect. Harveys has received no notice of any
investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries that is pending, and, to the best knowledge of
Harveys, no investigation or review is threatened, nor has any Governmental
Entity indicated any intention to conduct the same, other than those the
outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably
likely to have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The term "Harveys Gaming Laws" means any Federal, state,
local or foreign statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, consent,
registration, finding of suitability, approval, license, judgment, order,
decree, injunction or other authorization, including any condition or
limitation placed thereon, governing or relating to the current or
contemplated casino and gaming activities and operations and manufacturing
and distributing operations of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries,
including, without limitation, the Nevada Gaming Control Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Douglas County, Nevada Code and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Iowa Parimutuel
Wagering Act, Chapter 99D of the Code of Iowa, the Riverboat Gambling Act,
Chapter 99F of the Code of Iowa and the rules and regulations of the Iowa
Racing and Gaming Commission promulgated under Chapters 99D and 99F, the
Colorado Division of Gaming and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder and any applicable state gaming law and any federal or state
laws relating to currency transactions.

          (c) Except as disclosed in Section 3.15(c) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any
of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors,
only to Harveys' best knowledge), officer, key employee or persons
performing management functions similar to officers or, to Harveys' best
knowledge, partners of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries has received any
written claim, demand, notice, complaint, court order or administrative
order from any Governmental Entity in the past three years under, or
relating to any violation or possible violation of any Harveys Gaming Laws
which did or would be reasonably likely to result in fines or penalties of
$50,000 or more. To Harveys' best knowledge, there are no facts, which if
known to the regulators under the Harveys Gaming Laws would be reasonably
likely to result in the revocation, limitation or suspension of a license,
finding of suitability, registration, permit or approval of it or them, or
of any officer, director, other person performing management functions
similar to an officer or partner, under any Harveys Gaming Laws. Neither
Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries has suffered a suspension or revocation
of any Harveys Permit held under the Harveys Gaming Laws.

         Section 3.16 Information Statement. Neither the Information
Statement to be sent to the stockholders of Harveys in connection with the
action taken by written consent of Harveys' stockholders with respect to
approval of "excess parachute payments" pursuant to Section 280G of the
Code (the "Information Statement"), nor any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto, will, as of the date thereof, contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The
Information Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with
the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder in effect as of the filing date thereof; provided, however, that
Harveys makes no representation with respect to any information supplied or
to be supplied by Harrah's for inclusion in the Information Statement or
any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.

         Section 3.17 Labor Matters. Except as disclosed in Section 3.17 of
the Harveys Disclosure Schedule or as would not be reasonably likely to
have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect, (i) to the best knowledge of
Harveys, there are no activities or proceedings of any labor union to
organize any non-unionized employees; (ii) neither Harveys nor any of its
Subsidiaries has breached or otherwise failed to comply with any provision
of any collective bargaining agreement or contract and there are no
grievances outstanding against Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries under any
such agreement or contract; (iii) there are no unfair labor practice
complaints pending against Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries before the
National Labor Relations Board, or any similar foreign labor relations
governmental bodies, or any current union representation questions
involving employees of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries; and (iv) there
is no strike, slowdown, work stoppage or lockout, or, to the best knowledge
of Harveys, threat thereof, by or with respect to any employees of Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries. Harveys and its Subsidiaries are not parties to
any collective bargaining agreements.

         Section 3.18 Insurance. Harveys has provided to Harrah's accurate
and complete copies of all material fire and casualty, general liability,
business interruption, product liability, and sprinkler and water damage
insurance policies maintained by Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries. All
such insurance policies are with reputable insurance carriers and provide
coverage as is reasonably prudent to cover normal risks incident to the
business of Harveys and its Subsidiaries and their respective properties
and assets.

         Section 3.19 Nevada Takeover Statute. As of the date hereof and at
all times on or prior to the Closing, the provisions of Sections 78.378
through 78.3793 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") are, and shall
be, inapplicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         Section 3.20 Brokers. None of Harveys, any of its Subsidiaries,
or, to the best knowledge of Harveys, any of their respective officers,
directors or employees have employed any broker, financial advisor or
finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions or
finder's fees in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, except that Harveys has retained Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and
Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. as its financial advisors, the arrangements with
which have been disclosed to Harrah's prior to, and will not be modified in
a manner adverse to Harrah's subsequent to, the date of this Agreement.

         Section 3.21 Transactions With Affiliates. Other than the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and except to the extent
disclosed in the Harveys SEC Reports or as disclosed in Section 3.21 of the
Harveys Disclosure Schedule, from February 2, 1999 through the date of this
Agreement, there have been no transactions, agreements, arrangements or
understandings between Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand,
and Harveys' affiliates or other persons, on the other hand, that would be
required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the
Securities Act.

which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the
business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing necessary,
except where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing

Adverse Effect"). Harrah's has delivered to Harveys a true and correct copy

decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Harrah's
or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their properties or assets,
except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) for any such conflicts,
violations, defaults, terminations, cancellations or accelerations which

registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity is
required by or with respect to Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries in
connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Harrah's or
the consummation by Harrah's or such Subsidiaries of the transactions to
which it is or they are a party that are contemplated hereby or thereby,

may be required under any environmental health or safety law or regulation
pertaining to any notification, disclosure or required approval triggered
by the Closing or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the
failure of which to make or obtain, respectively, would not be reasonably
likely to result in a Harrah's Material Averse Effect, and (vi) such other
filings, consents, approvals, orders, registrations and declarations as may
be required under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries conducts any business or owns any assets the failure of
which to make or obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's
Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 5.3 Intentionally Omitted.

         Section 5.4 Brokers. None of Harrah's, any of its Subsidiaries, or
any of their respective officers, directors or employees have employed any
broker, financial advisor or finder or incurred any liability for any
brokerage fees, commissions or finder's fees in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that Harrah's has
retained Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown Inc. and CIBC World Markets as financial
advisors, the arrangements with which have been disclosed in writing to
Harveys prior to the date hereof.

         Section 5.5 Financing. Harrah's will have available on the Closing
Date sufficient funds to enable Harrah's to (i) pay the Total Transaction
Consideration (exclusive of the deduction set forth in clauses (xii) and
(xvii) of Section 1.3(b)), (ii) purchase any of Harveys' outstanding 105/8
% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 required to be purchased pursuant to
the change of control provisions contained in the instruments governing
such indebtedness, (iii) repay all outstanding amounts under the Second
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of October 5, 1999, as

Syndication Co-Agent, Deutsche Bank Securities, as Documentation Agent,
Societe Generale and Bank One, N. A. as Co-Managing Agents and (iv)

         Section 5.6 Compliance with Gaming Laws.

          (a) Each of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries, and each of their
respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to
Harrah's' best knowledge), officers, persons performing management
functions similar to officers and, to Harrah's' best knowledge, partners,
hold all permits, registrations, findings of suitability, licenses,
variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and approvals of
all Governmental Entities under the Harrah's Gaming Laws necessary to
conduct the business and operations of Harrah's and each of its
Subsidiaries, each of which is in full force and effect in all material
respects, except for such permits, registrations, findings of suitability,
licenses, variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and
approvals the failure of which to hold would not, individually or in the
aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect
(the "Harrah's Permits") and no event has occurred which permits, or upon
the giving of notice or passage of time or both would permit, revocation,
non-renewal, modification, suspension, limitation or termination of any
Harrah's Permit that currently is in effect the loss of which either
individually or in the aggregate would be reasonably likely to have a
Harrah's Material Adverse Effect. Each of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries,
and each of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee
directors, only to Harrah's' best knowledge), officers, persons performing
management functions similar to officers and, to Harrah's' best knowledge,
partners, are in compliance with the terms of the Harrah's Permits, except
for such failures to comply, which singly or in the aggregate, would not,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's
Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the forms, reports, and
documents required to be filed by Harrah's with the SEC filed prior to the
date of this Agreement, the businesses of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries are
not being conducted in violation of any Harrah's Gaming Law, except for
possible violations which individually or in the aggregate do not and would
not be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect.
Harrah's has received no notice of any investigation or review by any
Governmental Entity under any Harrah's Gaming Law with respect to Harrah's
or any of its Subsidiaries that is pending, and, to the best knowledge of
Harrah's, no investigation or review is threatened, nor has any
Governmental Entity indicated any intention to conduct the same, other than
those the outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be
reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The term "Harrah's Gaming Laws" means any Federal, state,
local or foreign statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, consent,
registration, finding of suitability, approval, license, judgment, order,
decree, injunction or other authorization, including any condition or
limitation placed thereon, governing or relating to the current or
contemplated casino and gaming activities and operations of Harrah's or any
of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the Nevada Gaming
Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Clark
County, Nevada Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the Douglas County, Nevada Code and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, the Louisiana Economic Development and Gaming Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Louisiana Riverboat Economic
Gaming Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the New Jersey Casino Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the
Illinois Riverboat Gambling Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, the Mississippi Gaming Control Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, the Missouri Riverboat Gambling Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Indian Gaming
Regulatory Act of 1988 and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, any state-tribal gaming compact and any applicable state gaming
law and any federal or state laws relating to currency transactions.

          (c) Except as disclosed in Section 5.6(c) of the Harrah's
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harrah's nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any
director (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to Harrah's'
best knowledge), officer, key employee or, to Harrah's' best knowledge,
partners of Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries has received any written
claim, demand, notice, complaint, court order or administrative order from
any Governmental Entity in the past three years under, or relating to any
violation or possible violation of any Harrah's Gaming Laws which did or
would be reasonably likely to result in fines or penalties of $50,000 or
more. To Harrah's' best knowledge, there are no facts, which if known to
the regulators under the Harrah's Gaming Laws could reasonably be expected
to result in the revocation, limitation or suspension of a license, finding
of suitability, registration, permit or approval of it or them, or of any
officer, director, person performing management functions similar to an
officer or partner, under any Harrah's Gaming Laws. Neither Harrah's nor
any of its Subsidiaries has suffered a suspension or revocation of any
Harrah's Permit held under the Harrah's Gaming Laws.

                                ARTICLE VI.
                                 COVENANTS

          Section 6.1 Conduct of Business of Harveys. During the period
from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of the
termination of this Agreement or the Closing, subject to the limitations
set forth below, Harveys agrees as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries
(except to the extent that Harrah's shall otherwise consent in writing) to
carry on its business in the usual, regular and ordinary course in
substantially the same manner as previously conducted, to pay its debts and
Taxes when due subject to good faith disputes over such debts or Taxes, to
pay or perform its other obligations when due, and, to the extent
consistent with such business, use all reasonable efforts consistent with
past practices and policies to preserve intact its present business
organization, keep available the services of its present officers and key

distributors, and others having business dealings with it. Harveys has
delivered concurrently herewith its operating budget (the "Budget").
Harveys shall make in all material respects the capital expenditures
reflected in the Budget. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
and except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and except as

period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of
the termination of this Agreement or the Closing, without the written

waive or otherwise modify any of the terms of any employee option, warrant
or stock option plan of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, including

will not impair in any respect Harrah's' ability to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) will not result in any cost,
liability or obligation to Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries either
before or after Closing or any cost, liability or obligation to Harveys or
its Subsidiaries that adversely affects Harrah's or its Subsidiaries in any
respect whatsoever; provided, however, that Harveys shall be permitted to
grant options and issue stock or restricted stock to employees of Harveys
and its Subsidiaries, so long as such employees accept and agree to the
terms of that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated as of February 2, 1999,

or, in the case of any employee to be issued stock or restricted stock,
such employee executes a Joinder;

              (iii) declare, set aside or pay any dividend or other

or grant any severance or termination pay to (except pursuant to existing
agreements or policies, which shall be interpreted and implemented in a
manner consistent with past practice), or enter into any employment or
severance agreement with, any director, officer or employee of Harveys or
any of its Subsidiaries or establish, adopt, enter into, or amend any
collective bargaining, bonus, profit sharing, thrift, compensation, stock
option, restricted stock, pension, retirement, savings, welfare, deferred
compensation, employment, termination, severance or other employee benefit
plan, agreement, trust, fund, policy or arrangement for the benefit or
welfare of any directors, officers or current or former employees,
including any Benefit Arrangement, Pension Plan or Welfare Plan, except (i)
to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, (ii) pursuant to
any collective bargaining agreements or Employee Plan as in effect on the

amount equal to the aggregate amount of such bonuses;

              (vi) (A) sell, pledge, lease, dispose of, grant, encumber, or

other sales which, individually do not exceed $50,000 or which, in the
aggregate, do not exceed $125,000 or (B) acquire (including, without

course of business and consistent with past practice in connection with
Harveys' hotel, casino and related operations, (2) acquisitions of
equipment and other non-current assets in the ordinary course of business
and consistent with past practice in connection with Harveys' hotel, casino
and related operations in an amount individually not to exceed $250,000 or

term of greater than one year which is not terminable within 30 days
without cost (other than a de minimis cost) to Harveys or such Subsidiary;

change to any of its material methods of reporting income or deductions for
Federal income tax purposes from those employed in the preparation of its
Federal income tax return for the taxable year ending November 30, 1999,

make any representation or warranty of Harveys contained herein inaccurate
in any respect at, or as of any time prior to, the Closing so as to cause
the conditions to Harrah's to consummate the transactions contemplated
herein not to be satisfied;

              (xvii) except for employment arrangements permitted by this
Agreement, engage in any transaction with, or enter into any agreement,
arrangement, or understanding with, directly or indirectly, any of Harveys'

Gaming Laws), from the date hereof until the Closing, each of Harrah's and

ongoing operations. Each of Harrah's and Harveys shall promptly notify the
other in writing of, and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to
cure before the Closing Date, any event, transaction or circumstance, as
soon as practical after it becomes known to such party, that causes or will
cause any covenant or agreement of Harrah's or Harveys under this Agreement
to be breached in any material respect or that renders or will render
untrue in any material respect any representation or warranty of Harrah's
or Harveys contained in this Agreement. Nothing contained in Section 6.1
above shall prevent Harveys from giving such notice, using such efforts or
taking any action to cure or curing any such event, transaction or
circumstance. No notice given pursuant to this paragraph shall have any
effect on the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
contained in this Agreement for purposes of determining satisfaction of any
condition contained herein.

         Section 6.3 No Solicitation.

          (a) Prior to the earlier of the Closing and the termination of
this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, Harveys shall not, directly
or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, financial advisor,
representative or agent of such party (i) solicit, initiate, or encourage
any inquiries or proposals that constitute, or could reasonably be expected
to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage in negotiations or
discussions with any person (or group of persons) other than Harrah's or
its respective affiliates (a "Third Party") concerning, or provide any
non-public information to any person or entity relating to, any Acquisition
Proposal, or (iii) agree to or recommend any Acquisition Proposal.
"Acquisition Proposal" means any proposal or offer from any person relating
to any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of assets (including

of Harveys' consolidated assets (by book or by fair market value) or of
over 25% of any class of equity securities of Harveys or any of its
material Subsidiaries or (b) any tender offer or exchange offer that if
consummated would result in any person beneficially owning 25% or more of
any class of equity securities of Harveys or any of its material
Subsidiaries, or (c) any merger, consolidation, business combination,
recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving
Harveys (or any of its material Subsidiaries) and a third party in each
case other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          (b) Harveys shall notify Harrah's immediately after receipt by
Harveys (or any of their advisors) of any Acquisition Proposal or any
request for non-public information in connection with an Acquisition
Proposal or for access to the properties, books or records of such party by
any person or entity that informs such party that it is considering making,
or has made, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice shall be made orally and
in writing and shall indicate the identity of the offeror and the terms and
conditions of such proposal, inquiry or contact.

         Section 6.4 Employee Matters.

          (a) Harveys shall promptly pay or provide when due all
compensation and benefits earned prior to the Closing Date as provided
pursuant to the terms of any Employee Plans in existence as of the date
hereof and as otherwise set forth in Section 3.14(b) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule for all employees (and former employees) and directors
(and former directors) of Harveys. Harrah's and Harveys agree that Harveys
shall pay promptly or provide when due all compensation and benefits
required to be paid pursuant to the terms of any agreement with any
employee, former employee, director or former director in effect as of the
Closing.

          (b) (i) Harveys shall use its reasonable best efforts prior to
the Closing to obtain from each of the Harveys employees that would have
amounts payable to them, or subject to accelerated payments or vesting,
under all plans and agreements which would constitute "parachute payments"
within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code an agreement in writing to
limit amounts payable to them to those amounts that would be fully
deductible pursuant to Section 280G of the Code unless the stockholders of
Harveys approve such amounts pursuant to Section 280G(B)(5)(B) of the Code
(the "Waivers");

              (ii) Following execution of the Waivers, Harveys shall use
its reasonable best efforts to obtain written consent pursuant to Section
280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code to the amounts waived pursuant to the Waivers
from stockholders of Harveys owning at least 75% of the outstanding voting
stock of Harveys. Such consent shall by its terms become effective on the
20th calendar day following mailing of the Information Statement (or such
later time as may be required by the Exchange Act).

         Section 6.5 Written Consent and Information Statement. Following
the date hereof, Harveys shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain the
written consent of at least 75% of the voting power of Harveys approving
the compensation arrangements with certain of Harveys' employees, including
"excess parachute payments" pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. Harveys
shall, as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement,
prepare and file with the SEC the Information Statement, and any amendments
or supplements thereto, to be mailed to all holders of Harveys Class A.

         Section 6.6 Access to Information.

          (a) Upon reasonable notice, subject to applicable law, including
without limitation, antitrust laws and Harveys Gaming Laws, Harveys shall
(and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) afford to the officers, employees,
accountants, counsel and other representatives of Harrah's, reasonable
access, during normal business hours during the period from the date hereof
to the Closing, to all its personnel, properties, books, contracts,
commitments and records and, during such period, Harveys shall, and shall
cause its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other (i) copies of
monthly financial reports and development reports, (ii) a copy of each
report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or
received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal
securities laws and (iii) all other information concerning its business,
properties and personnel as Harrah's may reasonably request. Harrah's will
hold any such information furnished to it by Harveys, which is nonpublic in
confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement dated November
23, 1999, between Harrah's and Colony Capital LLC, as extended by the
letter agreement dated February 12, 2001 (the "Confidentiality Agreement").
No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this
Section 6.6 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or
warranty contained in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations
of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.

          (b) For purposes of complying with Section 1.3(d), the Sellers'
Representative and its officers, directors, managers, member, partners,
employees, financial advisors, legal advisors, accountants, representatives
and agents shall have reasonable access, during normal business hours
during the period of any dispute of the amount of Total Transaction
Consideration in Section 1.3(d) following the Closing, to Harveys' and its
Subsidiaries' applicable personnel, properties, books and records and
Harveys shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, promptly furnish to the
Sellers' Representative and its officers, managers, members, partners,
employees, financial advisors, legal advisors, accountants, other
representatives and agents all information as may be reasonably required
for the purposes specified in Section 1.3(d).

         Section 6.7 Governmental Approvals.

          (a) The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and use
their reasonable best efforts (and, with respect to the Harveys Gaming
Laws, the Harrah's Gaming Laws and antitrust laws, if applicable, shall use
their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective directors and
officers to do so) to promptly prepare and file all necessary
documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings,
to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, registrations, licenses,
findings of suitability, consents, variances, exemptions, orders, approvals
and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities which are
necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including, without limitation, all filings required under the
HSR Act, the Harveys Gaming Laws and the Harrah's Gaming Laws
("Governmental Approvals"), and to comply (and, with respect to the Harveys
Gaming Laws and the Harrah's Gaming Laws, to cause their respective
directors and officers to so comply) with the terms and conditions of all
such Governmental Approvals. The parties hereto and their respective
officers, directors and affiliates shall use their reasonable best efforts
to file within 30 days after the date hereof, and in all events shall file
within 60 days after the date hereof, all required initial applications and
documents in connection with obtaining the Governmental Approvals
(including without limitation under applicable Harveys Gaming Laws and
Harrah's Gaming Laws) and shall act reasonably and promptly thereafter in
responding to additional requests in connection therewith. The parties
hereto acknowledge that this Agreement is subject to the review and
approval of the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission. Harveys and Harrah's
shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable
each will consult the other on, in each case subject to applicable laws
relating to the exchange of information (including, without limitation,
antitrust laws and Harveys Gaming Laws), all the information relating to
Harveys or the Harrah's, as the case may be, and any of their respective
Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders which appear in any
filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any
Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Harveys and
Harrah's (the "Notifying Party") will notify the other promptly of the
receipt of comments or requests from Governmental Entities relating to
Governmental Approvals, and will supply the other with copies of all
correspondence between the Notifying Party or any of its representatives
and Governmental Entities with respect to Governmental Approvals; provided,
however, that it shall not be required to supply the other party with
copies of all communication relating to the personal applications of
individual applicants except for evidence of filing.

         (b) Harveys and Harrah's shall promptly advise each other upon
receiving any communication from any Governmental Entity whose consent or
approval is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement which causes such party to reasonably believe that there is
a reasonable likelihood that such consent or approval from such
Governmental Entity will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such
approval will be materially delayed. Harveys and Harrah's each shall use
its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions
reasonably necessary to defend any lawsuits or other legal proceedings
challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, seeking to prevent the entry by any
Governmental Entity of any decree, injunction or other order challenging
this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, appealing as promptly as possible any such decree, injunction or
other order and having any such decree, injunction or other order vacated
or reversed.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this
Agreement, Harrah's shall have no obligation or affirmative duty under this
Section 6.7 to dispose of any of its assets or properties, disassociate
itself from any person or entity, or agree to do any of the foregoing at
any time in the future, in connection with seeking any Governmental
Approval.

         Section 6.8 Publicity. Harrah's and Harveys shall agree on the
form and content of the initial press release regarding the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereafter shall consult with each other before
issuing, provide each other the opportunity to review and comment upon and
use all reasonable efforts to agree upon, any press release or other public
statement with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and
shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement
prior to such consultation and prior to considering in good faith any such
comments, except as may be required by applicable law.

         Section 6.9 Indemnification.

          (a) From and after the Closing, Harrah's agrees that it will, and

         WHEREAS, Voteco and Colony III own, in the aggregate, at least 95%

below, the parties agree as follows:

shall be no later than the fifth business day after satisfaction or, if

"Closing Date"), unless another date is agreed to by Harrah's, Harveys and
the Sellers' Representative.

         Section 1.3 Purchase Price.

          (a) The Sellers shall be entitled to a total transaction

pursuant to this Section 1.3, to be allocated among them pursuant to the
direction of Colony III, as evidenced by a certificate signed by the
general partner thereof in the form set forth as Exhibit 1.3(a) hereto (the

agreed upon appropriate amount of cash and cash equivalents to be on hand
at the Determination Date), plus (iv) the amount of cash and cash
equivalents actually on hand as of the Determination Date, plus (v) the
proceeds (net of any amounts required to be withheld for related taxes) of
the exercise of any stock option exercises from the date hereof to and
including the Determination Date, plus (vi) any increase in the amount of
Net Working Capital between that set forth on Schedule 1.3(b) hereto and
the Net Working Capital as of the Determination Date, plus (vii) any
payments up to $8,100,000 made pursuant to the Vision Iowa Project
Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of December 19, 2000, substantially
in accordance with the Budget, minus (viii) any decrease in the amount of
Net Working Capital between that set forth on Exhibit 1.3(b) hereto and the

any unbudgeted expenditures made by Harveys after the date hereof and on or
prior to the Determination Date that require Harrah's' consent under this
Agreement and that have been made with the consent of Harrah's, minus (x)

Notes, plus (xiv) $110,000 per day following the Determination Date up to
but not including the Closing Date, minus (xv) the amount of any budgeted
capital expenditures provided in the Budget that Harveys fails to make
(such expenditures to be calculated as $42,500 per day from the date hereof
to but not including the Closing Date), minus (xvi) the amount of any
obligation to make any payment (whether in cash or other property) agreed
or committed to by Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, whether existing on
the date hereof or incurred thereafter, through the Closing Date, minus
(xvii) for the purpose of paying out the total consideration due to the
stockholders of Harveys at the Closing, without duplication, the pro rata
amount of Total Transaction Consideration as determined in (i) through
(xvi) above to be paid at or after the Closing to other Harveys
stockholders as of the Closing Date that have not executed Joinders in
accordance with Section 6.13 prior to the Closing Date. "Net Working
Capital" shall equal (x) the sum of all current assets (other than cash and
cash equivalents), minus (y) the sum of all current liabilities (other than
short-term debt indebtedness (including current portion of long-term debt)
and other obligations referred to in clause (ii) above), it being expressly
agreed for purposes of avoiding any double counting that any amount or item
which would otherwise be included in the calculation of Net Working Capital
but is otherwise an addition or deduction pursuant to the calculation of
Total Transaction Consideration shall be excluded from the calculation of
Net Working Capital, both as of the Determination Date and as of February
28, 2001. By way of example only and for purposes of clarification, Exhibit
1.3(b) sets forth a calculation of the Total Transaction Consideration
using the Harveys balance sheet as of February 28, 2001.

          (c) On or prior to the Closing Date, Harveys shall deliver a
calculation of the Total Transaction Consideration as of the Closing Date,
using the form of calculation thereof as illustrated in Exhibit 1.3(b)
hereto (the "Closing Schedule"). The Total Transaction Consideration shall
be paid by Harrah's to Sellers in accordance with this Section 1.3 on the
Closing Date. Notwithstanding any change with respect to Harveys'
accounting policies or procedures subsequent to the date hereof, the
accounting policies and procedures used to calculate Total Transaction
Consideration or to produce the Closing Statement shall be the same as
those in effect on the date hereof.

          (d) Post-Closing Adjustment. If within twenty days following the
Closing Date Harrah's has not given to the Sellers' Representative notice
of its objection to the Closing Schedule (such notice must contain a
statement of the basis of Harrah's' objection), then the Total Transaction
Consideration as calculated pursuant to the foregoing shall be deemed
accepted. If Harrah's gives such notice of objection, then the issues in
dispute will be submitted to Deloitte & Touche LLP, certified public
accountants (the "Accountants"), for resolution and the Accountants shall
issue a report with respect to such issue not later than 20 days after such
submission. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for
resolution, (i) each party will furnish to the Accountants such workpapers
and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the
Accountants may request and are available to that party or its Subsidiaries
(or its independent public accountants), and will be afforded the
opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the
determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants; (ii)
the determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to
both parties by the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the
parties; and (iii) Harrah's and the Sellers will each bear 50% of the fees
of the Accountants for such determination; provided, however, that if the
Accountants determine that the Total Transaction Consideration should be
adjusted downward by an amount in excess of $5.0 million or upward by an
amount in excess of $5.0 million, then Sellers, in the case of a downward
adjustment, or Harrah's, in the case of an upward adjustment, shall bear
the fees of such Accountants.

          (e) On the third business day following the earlier of (i) the
final determination by the Accountants of the amount of the Total
Transaction Consideration pursuant to Section 1.3(d), if such Total
Transaction Consideration is greater than the aggregate of the payments
made pursuant to Section 1.3(b), Harrah's will pay the difference to
Sellers and holders of Options cashed out pursuant to Section 2.1 and other
Harveys stockholders that have not executed Joinders and whose shares have
been repurchased by Harveys at Closing, to be allocated on a per share
basis consistent with the manner utilized at Closing, and if such Total
Transaction Consideration is less than such aggregate amount, Sellers and
holders of Options cashed out pursuant to Section 2.1 and other Harveys
stockholders that have not executed Joinders and whose shares have been
repurchased by Harveys at Closing, on a per share basis consistent with the
manner utilized at Closing, will pay the difference to Harrah's. All
payments will be made together with interest at 7.0% compounded daily
beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date of payment. Payments
must be made in immediately available funds. Payments to Harrah's must be
made by wire transfer to such bank account as Harrah's will specify.

         Section 1.4 Closing Deliveries.

          (a) Sellers will deliver to Harrah's on the Closing Date:

              (i) certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed (or
accompanied by duly executed stock powers), with signatures guaranteed by a
commercial bank, for transfer to Harrah's;

              (ii) the resignation of Thomas J. Barrack, Jr. as the sole
director of Harveys and each of its Subsidiaries;

              (iii) FIRPTA certificates in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Harrah's;

              (iv) a certificate executed by each Seller to the effect that
such Seller's representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement
were true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this
Agreement and are accurate in all material respects as of the Closing Date
as though made on and as of the Closing Date, except for changes
contemplated or permitted by this Agreement; and

          (b) Harrah's will deliver to Sellers on the Closing Date:

              (i) the Total Transaction Consideration as determined in
Section 1.3, via wire transfer as directed by the Sellers' Representative
in writing; and

              (ii) the certificates required by Sections 7.2(a) and 7.2(b).

          (c) Harrah's will deliver to Harveys on the Closing Date:

              (i) the capital contribution to Harveys as specified in
Section 2.1; and

              (ii) any amounts required to repurchase shares of other
Harveys stockholders that have not executed Joinders pursuant to Section
6.13 that are being repurchased at Closing.

                                ARTICLE II.
                EFFECT OF THE CLOSING ON OPTIONS OF HARVEYS

         Section 2.1 Harveys Option Plan. Concurrently with the Closing,
each unexpired and unexercised outstanding option, whether or not then
vested or exercisable in accordance with its terms, to purchase shares of
Harveys Common Stock ("Options") previously granted by Harveys or its
Subsidiaries under Harveys' 1999 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Harveys Stock
Option Plan") will become exercisable in full and each holder of an Option
shall be entitled to receive from Harveys in cancellation thereof a payment
(subject to applicable income tax withholding, employer taxes and a
holdback amount set forth in the Sellers' Representative Certificate) in an
amount equal to (i) the excess, if any, of the applicable Class A
Consideration or Class B Consideration, as the case may be, over the per
share exercise price of such Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of
shares of Harveys Common Stock subject to such Option (the "Option
Settlement Amount"). The Option Settlement Amount, less the holdback amount
set forth in the Sellers' Representative Certificate, shall be paid in cash
concurrently with the Closing. In order to facilitate such payment,
Harrah's concurrently with the Closing shall acquire shares of capital
stock from Harveys for an aggregate purchase price equal to the aggregate
Option Settlement Amount (plus applicable income tax withholding, employer
taxes and heldback amounts) payable to all such Harveys Option holders. The
Option Settlement Amount shall be paid in cash concurrently with the
Closing. From and after the Closing, there shall be no outstanding and
exercisable Options. The surrender of an Option shall be deemed a release
of any and all rights the holder had or may have in respect of such Option.
The Harveys Stock Option Plan and any and all other agreements, plans,
programs or arrangements of Harveys and its Subsidiaries that provide for
the issuance or grant of Options or any other interest in respect of the
capital stock of Harveys or capital stock of or other ownership interest in
any of its Subsidiaries shall terminate as of the Closing. Immediately
following the Closing, no holder of an Option or any participant in the
Harveys Stock Option Plan or any other agreement, plan, program or
arrangement of Harveys shall have any right thereunder to acquire equity
securities or other ownership interests of Harveys or any Subsidiary
thereof.

                               ARTICLE III.
                 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HARVEYS

         Harveys represents and warrants to Harrah's that the statements
contained in this Article III are true and correct except as set forth
herein and in the disclosure schedule delivered by Harveys to Harrah's on
or before the date of this Agreement (the "Harveys Disclosure Schedule").
The Harveys Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in paragraphs
corresponding to the numbered and lettered paragraphs contained in this
Article III and the disclosure in any paragraph shall qualify other
paragraphs in this Article III.

         Section 3.1 Organization of Harveys and its Subsidiaries. Each of
Harveys and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization and has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited
liability company power and authority to carry on its business as now being
conducted and as proposed to be conducted prior to the Closing. Each of
Harveys and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business
and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the property owned,
leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it
makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure
to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, condition (financial or
otherwise), results of operations or prospects of Harveys and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any of the three separate businesses
operated as the Harveys Resort & Casino -- Lake Tahoe, Harveys Casino/Hotel
Council Bluffs and Bluffs Run Casino (a "Harveys Material Adverse Effect");
provided, however, that the following, individually and in the aggregate,
shall be excluded from the definition of "Harveys Material Adverse Effect"
and from any determination as to whether any Harveys Material Adverse
Effect has occurred or may occur: any reduction, in and of itself, in
historic or prospective revenues, net income or EBITDA of Harveys C.C.
Management Company, Inc. or Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel/Casino. Harveys has
delivered to Harrah's a true and correct copy of the Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of Harveys and each of its Subsidiaries, in each
case as amended to the date of this Agreement. Assuming compliance by
Harrah's, its Subsidiaries and their key employees with all Harveys Gaming
Laws (as defined in Section 3.15(b)) (including obtaining all necessary
consents and approvals), the respective organizational documents of
Harveys' Subsidiaries do not contain any provision that would limit or
otherwise restrict the ability of Harrah's, following the Closing, from
owning or operating such Subsidiaries on the same basis as Harveys. Except
as set forth in Harveys SEC Reports (as defined in Section 3.4(a)) filed
prior to the date hereof or as disclosed in Section 3.1 of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries directly
or indirectly owns (other than ownership interests in Harveys or in one or
more of its Subsidiaries) any equity or similar interest in, or any
interest convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any
corporation, partnership, joint venture or other business association or
entity. As used in this Agreement, the word "Subsidiary" means, with
respect to any party, any corporation or other organization, whether
incorporated or unincorporated, of which (i) such party or any other
Subsidiary of such party is a general partner or (ii) at least a majority
of the securities or other interests having by their terms ordinary voting
power to elect a majority of the Board of Directors or others performing
similar functions with respect to such corporation or other organization is
directly or indirectly owned or controlled by such party or by any one or
more of its Subsidiaries, or by such party and one or more of its
Subsidiaries.

         Section 3.2 Capitalization.

          (a) The authorized capital stock of Harveys consists of
20,000,000 shares of Harveys common stock, consisting of 10,000,000 shares
of Harveys Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Harveys Class
A"), and 10,000,000 shares of Harveys Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01
per share ("Harveys Class B" and, together with Harveys Class A, "Harveys
Common Stock"), and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value
per share ("Harveys Preferred Stock"). As of the date hereof, (i) 68,876
shares of Harveys Class A were issued and outstanding, all of which are
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) 7,268,427 shares of
Harveys Class B were issued and outstanding, all of which are validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and (iii) no shares of Harveys
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding. Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule sets forth the number of shares of Harveys Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon exercise of Options granted and outstanding as
of the date hereof. Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule also
sets forth, for the Harveys Stock Option Plan, the dates on which Options
under the plan were granted, the number of Options granted on each such
date and the exercise price thereof. Since February 28, 2001, Harveys has
not made any grants under the Harveys Stock Option Plan. As of the date of
this Agreement, Harveys has not granted any stock appreciation rights or
any other contractual rights the value of which is derived from the
financial performance of Harveys or the value of shares of Harveys Common
Stock. There are no obligations, contingent or otherwise, of Harveys or any
of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares
of Harveys Common Stock or the capital stock or ownership interests of any
Subsidiary or to provide funds to or make any material investment (in the
form of a loan, capital contribution or otherwise) in any such Subsidiary
or any other entity other than guarantees of bank obligations or
indebtedness for borrowed money entered into in the ordinary course of
business. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock (including shares
which have been issued upon exercise of outstanding options) or other
ownership interests of each of Harveys' Subsidiaries are duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, except as disclosed in
Section 3.2(a) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule, all such shares and
ownership interests are owned by Harveys or another Subsidiary of Harveys
free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims, pledges,
agreements, limitations on Harveys' voting rights, charges or other
encumbrances or restrictions on transfer of any nature, other than imposed
by applicable gaming laws.

          (b) There are no bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness
of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries having voting rights (or convertible
into securities having such rights) ("Voting Debt") issued and outstanding.
Except as set forth in Section 3.2(b) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule or
as reserved for future grants of options or restricted stock under the
Harveys Stock Option Plan as of the date hereof, (i) there are no shares of
capital stock of any class of Harveys, or any security exchangeable into or
exercisable for such equity securities, issued, reserved for issuance or
outstanding; (ii) there are no options, warrants, equity securities, calls,
rights, commitments or agreements of any character to which Harveys or any
of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound obligating Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be
issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other
ownership interests (including Voting Debt) of Harveys or any of its
Subsidiaries or obligating Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries to grant,
extend, accelerate the vesting of or enter into any such option, warrant,
equity security, call, right, commitment or agreement; and (iii) there are
no voting trusts, proxies or other voting agreements or understandings to
which Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or they
are bound with respect to the shares of capital stock of Harveys. All
shares of Harveys Common Stock subject to issuance as specified in this
Section 3.2(b) are duly authorized and, upon issuance on the terms and
conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are
issuable, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Harveys
shall have the right at the Closing pursuant to the Harveys stock option
and restricted stock agreements to repurchase all of the outstanding shares
of Harveys Common Stock, other than those held by any Seller, for the same
price per share as the price to be paid to Sellers.

          (c) Section 3.2(c) of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule sets forth
all stockholders of Harveys and the number of shares of Harveys Common
Stock owned by each.

         Section 3.3 Authority; No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

          (a) Harveys has all requisite corporate power and authority to

          (c) Representations.

              (i) Employee Plans

                      (A) No Pension Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA
             or the minimum funding requirements of Section 412 of the
             Code. Each Pension Plan and each related trust that is
             intended to qualify under the provisions of Code Section
             401(a) and 501(a) has so qualified during the period from its
             adoption to date.

                      (B) Each Employee Plan has been maintained in
             material compliance with its terms and, both as to form and in
             operation, with the requirements prescribed by any and all
             applicable laws, including without limitation ERISA and the
             Code to the extent applicable.

                      (C) (i) The methodologies used by Harveys to
             determine participants' benefits and Harveys' liabilities
             under Harveys' Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, Senior
             Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and Section 7 of the
             Change of Control Plan, as such methodologies have been
             disclosed to Harrah's, are a reasonable application of the
             terms of such plans, (ii) Harveys' calculation of the
             participants' benefits and Harveys' liabilities thereunder as
             disclosed to Harrah's are accurate and consistent with such
             methodologies and (iii) Harveys has consistently applied such
             methodologies in the past. The seven participants in Harveys'
             Change of Control Plan listed in that certain Resolution
             2001-9 of the Board of Directors of Harveys Casino Resorts
             Reaffirming Participants in Harveys Casino Resorts Change of
             Control Plan, attached hereto as Exhibit 3.14(c) are the only
             participants under Harveys' Change of Control Plan.

              (ii) Multiemployer Plans

                      (A) Neither Harveys nor any ERISA Affiliate has, at
             any time, withdrawn from a Multiemployer Plan in a "complete
             withdrawal" or a "partial withdrawal" as defined in Sections
             4203 and 4205 of ERISA, respectively, so as to result in a
             liability, contingent or otherwise (including without
             limitation the obligations pursuant to an agreement entered
             into in accordance with Section 4204 of ERISA), of Harveys or
             any ERISA Affiliate which has not been fully satisfied.
             Neither Harveys nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in, or is
             a successor or parent corporation to an entity that has
             engaged in, a transaction described in Section 4212(c) of
             ERISA. If, as of the Closing Date, Harveys (and all ERISA
             Affiliates) were to withdraw from all Multiemployer Plans to
             which it (or any of them) has contributed or been obligated to
             contribute, it (and they) would incur no material liabilities
             to such plans under Title IV of ERISA.

                      (B) To the best of Harveys' knowledge, with respect
             to each Multiemployer Plan: (1) no such Multiemployer Plan has
             been terminated or is in reorganization under ERISA so as to
             result, directly or indirectly, in any liability, contingent
             or otherwise, of Harveys or any ERISA Affiliate under Title IV
             of ERISA; and (2) no proceeding has been initiated by any
             person (including the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation) to
             terminate any Multiemployer Plan.

              (iii) Welfare Plans. None of Harveys, any ERISA Affiliate or
any Welfare Plan has any present or future obligation to make any payment
to, or with respect to any present or former employee of Harveys or any
ERISA Affiliate pursuant to, any retiree medical benefit plan, or other
retiree Welfare Plan, except to the extent required by the Code or ERISA.
Harveys and its ERISA Affiliates have performed all of their obligations
with respect to all self-funded and self-administered Welfare Plans and
have made appropriate entries in their financial statements for all
obligations and liabilities under such Welfare Plans that have accrued but
are not yet due, including without limitation, reserves for incurred but
unreported claims. All required contributions to, and payments from each
Welfare Plan have been made on a timely basis. No event has occurred and no
circumstances exist that could result in a material increase in premium
costs of any Welfare Plans that are insured or in a material increase in
benefit costs of any Welfare Plans that are self-insured.

              (iv) Deductibility of Payments. There is no contract,
agreement, plan or arrangement covering any employee or former employee of
Harveys (with respect to its relationship with such entities) that,
individually or collectively, provides for the payment by Harveys of any
amount (i) that is not deductible under Section 162 or 404 of the Code or
(ii) that is an "excess parachute payment" pursuant to Section 280G of the
Code.

              (v) Litigation. There is no material action, order, writ,
injunction, judgment or decree outstanding or claim, suit, litigation,
proceeding, arbitral action, governmental audit or investigation, relating
to or seeking benefits under any Employee Plan that or to the best
knowledge of Harveys, is pending against Harveys, any ERISA Affiliate or
any Employee Plan (other than routine claims for benefits).

              (vi) No Acceleration or Creation of Rights. Except as
provided in Section 2.1 or disclosed in Section 3.14 of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Harveys nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
result in the acceleration or creation of any rights of any current or
former employee of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries to benefits under any
Employee Plan (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the
vesting or exercisability of any stock options, the acceleration of the
vesting of any restricted stock, the acceleration of the accrual or vesting
of any benefits under any Pension Plan or the acceleration or creation of
any rights under any severance, parachute or change in control agreement).

             Section 3.15 Compliance with Gaming Laws.

          (a) Each of Harveys and its Subsidiaries, and each of their
respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to
Harveys' best knowledge), officers, persons performing management functions
similar to officers and, to Harveys' best knowledge, partners hold all
permits, registrations, findings of suitability, licenses, variances,
exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and approvals of all
Governmental Entities (including all authorizations under Harveys Gaming
Laws, the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 and the Shipping Act of 1916 and
Certificates of Inspection issued by the U.S. Coast Guard), necessary to
conduct the business and operations of Harveys and each of its
Subsidiaries, each of which is in full force and effect in all material
respects, except for such permits, registrations, findings of suitability,
licenses, variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and
approvals the failure of which to hold would not, individually or in the
aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect
(the "Harveys Permits") and no event has occurred which permits, or upon
the giving of notice or passage of time or both would permit, revocation,
non-renewal, modification, suspension, limitation or termination of any
Harveys Permit that currently is in effect the loss of which either
individually or in the aggregate would be reasonably likely to have a
Harveys Material Adverse Effect. Each of Harveys and its Subsidiaries, and
each of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee
directors, only to Harveys' best knowledge), officers, persons performing
management functions similar to officers and, to Harveys' best knowledge,
partners, are in compliance with the terms of the Harveys Permits, except
for such failures to comply, which singly or in the aggregate, would not,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harveys
Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the Harveys SEC Reports
filed prior to the date of this Agreement, the businesses of Harveys and
its Subsidiaries are not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance
or regulation of any Governmental Entity (including, without limitation,
any Harveys Gaming Laws), except for possible violations which individually
or in the aggregate do not and would not be reasonably likely to have a
Harveys Material Adverse Effect. Harveys has received no notice of any
investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries that is pending, and, to the best knowledge of
Harveys, no investigation or review is threatened, nor has any Governmental
Entity indicated any intention to conduct the same, other than those the
outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably
likely to have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The term "Harveys Gaming Laws" means any Federal, state,
local or foreign statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, consent,
registration, finding of suitability, approval, license, judgment, order,
decree, injunction or other authorization, including any condition or
limitation placed thereon, governing or relating to the current or
contemplated casino and gaming activities and operations and manufacturing
and distributing operations of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries,
including, without limitation, the Nevada Gaming Control Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Douglas County, Nevada Code and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Iowa Parimutuel
Wagering Act, Chapter 99D of the Code of Iowa, the Riverboat Gambling Act,
Chapter 99F of the Code of Iowa and the rules and regulations of the Iowa
Racing and Gaming Commission promulgated under Chapters 99D and 99F, the
Colorado Division of Gaming and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder and any applicable state gaming law and any federal or state
laws relating to currency transactions.

          (c) Except as disclosed in Section 3.15(c) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any
of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors,
only to Harveys' best knowledge), officer, key employee or persons
performing management functions similar to officers or, to Harveys' best
knowledge, partners of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries has received any
written claim, demand, notice, complaint, court order or administrative
order from any Governmental Entity in the past three years under, or
relating to any violation or possible violation of any Harveys Gaming Laws
which did or would be reasonably likely to result in fines or penalties of
$50,000 or more. To Harveys' best knowledge, there are no facts, which if
known to the regulators under the Harveys Gaming Laws would be reasonably
likely to result in the revocation, limitation or suspension of a license,
finding of suitability, registration, permit or approval of it or them, or
of any officer, director, other person performing management functions
similar to an officer or partner, under any Harveys Gaming Laws. Neither
Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries has suffered a suspension or revocation
of any Harveys Permit held under the Harveys Gaming Laws.

         Section 3.16 Information Statement. Neither the Information
Statement to be sent to the stockholders of Harveys in connection with the
action taken by written consent of Harveys' stockholders with respect to
approval of "excess parachute payments" pursuant to Section 280G of the
Code (the "Information Statement"), nor any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto, will, as of the date thereof, contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The
Information Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with
the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder in effect as of the filing date thereof; provided, however, that
Harveys makes no representation with respect to any information supplied or
to be supplied by Harrah's for inclusion in the Information Statement or
any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.

         Section 3.17 Labor Matters. Except as disclosed in Section 3.17 of
the Harveys Disclosure Schedule or as would not be reasonably likely to
have a Harveys Material Adverse Effect, (i) to the best knowledge of
Harveys, there are no activities or proceedings of any labor union to
organize any non-unionized employees; (ii) neither Harveys nor any of its
Subsidiaries has breached or otherwise failed to comply with any provision
of any collective bargaining agreement or contract and there are no
grievances outstanding against Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries under any
such agreement or contract; (iii) there are no unfair labor practice
complaints pending against Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries before the
National Labor Relations Board, or any similar foreign labor relations
governmental bodies, or any current union representation questions
involving employees of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries; and (iv) there
is no strike, slowdown, work stoppage or lockout, or, to the best knowledge
of Harveys, threat thereof, by or with respect to any employees of Harveys
or any of its Subsidiaries. Harveys and its Subsidiaries are not parties to
any collective bargaining agreements.

         Section 3.18 Insurance. Harveys has provided to Harrah's accurate
and complete copies of all material fire and casualty, general liability,
business interruption, product liability, and sprinkler and water damage
insurance policies maintained by Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries. All
such insurance policies are with reputable insurance carriers and provide
coverage as is reasonably prudent to cover normal risks incident to the
business of Harveys and its Subsidiaries and their respective properties
and assets.

         Section 3.19 Nevada Takeover Statute. As of the date hereof and at
all times on or prior to the Closing, the provisions of Sections 78.378
through 78.3793 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") are, and shall
be, inapplicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         Section 3.20 Brokers. None of Harveys, any of its Subsidiaries,
or, to the best knowledge of Harveys, any of their respective officers,
directors or employees have employed any broker, financial advisor or
finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions or
finder's fees in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, except that Harveys has retained Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and
Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. as its financial advisors, the arrangements with
which have been disclosed to Harrah's prior to, and will not be modified in
a manner adverse to Harrah's subsequent to, the date of this Agreement.

         Section 3.21 Transactions With Affiliates. Other than the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and except to the extent
disclosed in the Harveys SEC Reports or as disclosed in Section 3.21 of the
Harveys Disclosure Schedule, from February 2, 1999 through the date of this
Agreement, there have been no transactions, agreements, arrangements or
understandings between Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand,
and Harveys' affiliates or other persons, on the other hand, that would be
required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the
Securities Act.

          (b) Other than as disclosed in Section 5.2(b) of the Harrah's
Disclosure Schedule, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by

conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, any provision of
the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Harrah's or the comparable
charter or organizational documents of any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) result
in any violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or
lapse of time, or both) a default (or give rise to a right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any material
benefit) under, or require a consent or waiver under, any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease,
contract or other agreement, instrument or obligation to which Harrah's or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their
properties or assets may be bound, or (iii) subject to the governmental
filings and other matters referred to in Section 5.2(c), conflict with or
violate any permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order,
decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Harrah's
or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their properties or assets,
except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) for any such conflicts,
violations, defaults, terminations, cancellations or accelerations which
(x) are not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably likely to have a
Harrah's Material Adverse Effect or (y) would not impair or delay the
Closing.

          (c) No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity is
required by or with respect to Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries in
connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Harrah's or
the consummation by Harrah's or such Subsidiaries of the transactions to
which it is or they are a party that are contemplated hereby or thereby,

under applicable state securities laws, (v) such filings and consents as
may be required under any environmental health or safety law or regulation
pertaining to any notification, disclosure or required approval triggered
by the Closing or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the
failure of which to make or obtain, respectively, would not be reasonably
likely to result in a Harrah's Material Averse Effect, and (vi) such other
filings, consents, approvals, orders, registrations and declarations as may
be required under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries conducts any business or owns any assets the failure of
which to make or obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's
Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 5.3 Intentionally Omitted.

         Section 5.4 Brokers. None of Harrah's, any of its Subsidiaries, or
any of their respective officers, directors or employees have employed any
broker, financial advisor or finder or incurred any liability for any
brokerage fees, commissions or finder's fees in connection with the

advisors, the arrangements with which have been disclosed in writing to
Harveys prior to the date hereof.

         Section 5.5 Financing. Harrah's will have available on the Closing

% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 required to be purchased pursuant to

         Section 5.6 Compliance with Gaming Laws.

          (a) Each of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries, and each of their
respective directors (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to
Harrah's' best knowledge), officers, persons performing management
functions similar to officers and, to Harrah's' best knowledge, partners,
hold all permits, registrations, findings of suitability, licenses,
variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and approvals of
all Governmental Entities under the Harrah's Gaming Laws necessary to
conduct the business and operations of Harrah's and each of its
Subsidiaries, each of which is in full force and effect in all material
respects, except for such permits, registrations, findings of suitability,
licenses, variances, exemptions, certificates of occupancy, orders and
approvals the failure of which to hold would not, individually or in the
aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect
(the "Harrah's Permits") and no event has occurred which permits, or upon
the giving of notice or passage of time or both would permit, revocation,
non-renewal, modification, suspension, limitation or termination of any
Harrah's Permit that currently is in effect the loss of which either
individually or in the aggregate would be reasonably likely to have a
Harrah's Material Adverse Effect. Each of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries,
and each of their respective directors (but with respect to non-employee
directors, only to Harrah's' best knowledge), officers, persons performing
management functions similar to officers and, to Harrah's' best knowledge,
partners, are in compliance with the terms of the Harrah's Permits, except
for such failures to comply, which singly or in the aggregate, would not,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's
Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the forms, reports, and
documents required to be filed by Harrah's with the SEC filed prior to the
date of this Agreement, the businesses of Harrah's and its Subsidiaries are
not being conducted in violation of any Harrah's Gaming Law, except for
possible violations which individually or in the aggregate do not and would
not be reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect.
Harrah's has received no notice of any investigation or review by any
Governmental Entity under any Harrah's Gaming Law with respect to Harrah's
or any of its Subsidiaries that is pending, and, to the best knowledge of
Harrah's, no investigation or review is threatened, nor has any
Governmental Entity indicated any intention to conduct the same, other than
those the outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be
reasonably likely to have a Harrah's Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The term "Harrah's Gaming Laws" means any Federal, state,
local or foreign statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, consent,
registration, finding of suitability, approval, license, judgment, order,
decree, injunction or other authorization, including any condition or
limitation placed thereon, governing or relating to the current or
contemplated casino and gaming activities and operations of Harrah's or any
of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the Nevada Gaming
Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Clark
County, Nevada Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the Douglas County, Nevada Code and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, the Louisiana Economic Development and Gaming Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Louisiana Riverboat Economic
Gaming Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the New Jersey Casino Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the
Illinois Riverboat Gambling Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, the Mississippi Gaming Control Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, the Missouri Riverboat Gambling Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Indian Gaming
Regulatory Act of 1988 and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, any state-tribal gaming compact and any applicable state gaming
law and any federal or state laws relating to currency transactions.

          (c) Except as disclosed in Section 5.6(c) of the Harrah's
Disclosure Schedule, neither Harrah's nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any
director (but with respect to non-employee directors, only to Harrah's'
best knowledge), officer, key employee or, to Harrah's' best knowledge,
partners of Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries has received any written
claim, demand, notice, complaint, court order or administrative order from
any Governmental Entity in the past three years under, or relating to any
violation or possible violation of any Harrah's Gaming Laws which did or
would be reasonably likely to result in fines or penalties of $50,000 or
more. To Harrah's' best knowledge, there are no facts, which if known to
the regulators under the Harrah's Gaming Laws could reasonably be expected
to result in the revocation, limitation or suspension of a license, finding
of suitability, registration, permit or approval of it or them, or of any
officer, director, person performing management functions similar to an
officer or partner, under any Harrah's Gaming Laws. Neither Harrah's nor
any of its Subsidiaries has suffered a suspension or revocation of any
Harrah's Permit held under the Harrah's Gaming Laws.

                                ARTICLE VI.
                                 COVENANTS

          Section 6.1 Conduct of Business of Harveys. During the period
from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of the
termination of this Agreement or the Closing, subject to the limitations
set forth below, Harveys agrees as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries
(except to the extent that Harrah's shall otherwise consent in writing) to
carry on its business in the usual, regular and ordinary course in
substantially the same manner as previously conducted, to pay its debts and
Taxes when due subject to good faith disputes over such debts or Taxes, to
pay or perform its other obligations when due, and, to the extent
consistent with such business, use all reasonable efforts consistent with
past practices and policies to preserve intact its present business
organization, keep available the services of its present officers and key
employees and preserve its relationships with customers, suppliers,
distributors, and others having business dealings with it. Harveys has
delivered concurrently herewith its operating budget (the "Budget").
Harveys shall make in all material respects the capital expenditures
reflected in the Budget. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
and except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and except as
disclosed on Section 6.1 of the Harveys Disclosure Schedule, during the
period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of
the termination of this Agreement or the Closing, without the written

or any other securities in respect of, in lieu of, or in substitution for,
shares of Harveys Common Stock outstanding on the date hereof or (B) amend,
waive or otherwise modify any of the terms of any employee option, warrant
or stock option plan of Harveys or any of its Subsidiaries, including
without limitation, the Options or the Harveys Stock Option Plan, except
that Harveys may make such amendments, waivers and modifications that (i)
will not impair in any respect Harrah's' ability to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) will not result in any cost,
liability or obligation to Harrah's or any of its Subsidiaries either
before or after Closing or any cost, liability or obligation to Harveys or
its Subsidiaries that adversely affects Harrah's or its Subsidiaries in any
respect whatsoever; provided, however, that Harveys shall be permitted to
grant options and issue stock or restricted stock to employees of Harveys
and its Subsidiaries, so long as such employees accept and agree to the
terms of that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated as of February 2, 1999,
by and among Harveys, Voteco, Colony III, and stockholders party thereto
or, in the case of any employee to be issued stock or restricted stock,
such employee executes a Joinder;

              (iii) declare, set aside or pay any dividend or other

thereof) in respect of any class or series of its capital stock other than

wholly-owned Subsidiary of Harveys;

              (iv) split, combine, subdivide, reclassify or redeem,

directors, officers or employees (whether from Harveys or any of its
Subsidiaries), or pay any benefit not required by any existing plan or
arrangement (including, without limitation, the granting of stock options,
stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock or performance units)
or grant any severance or termination pay to (except pursuant to existing
agreements or policies, which shall be interpreted and implemented in a
manner consistent with past practice), or enter into any employment or
severance agreement with, any director, officer or employee of Harveys or
any of its Subsidiaries or establish, adopt, enter into, or amend any
collective bargaining, bonus, profit sharing, thrift, compensation, stock
option, restricted stock, pension, retirement, savings, welfare, deferred
compensation, employment, termination, severance or other employee benefit
plan, agreement, trust, fund, policy or arrangement for the benefit or
welfare of any directors, officers or current or former employees,
including any Benefit Arrangement, Pension Plan or Welfare Plan, except (i)
to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, (ii) pursuant to
any collective bargaining agreements or Employee Plan as in effect on the
date of this Agreement consistent with past practices or (iii) for salary
and other benefit increases, grants, payments or modifications in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice to employees
other than executive officers of Harveys, (iv) to extend the term of any
existing employment agreements to a date not later than the day following

amount equal to the aggregate amount of such bonuses;

              (vi) (A) sell, pledge, lease, dispose of, grant, encumber, or

other sales which, individually do not exceed $50,000 or which, in the
aggregate, do not exceed $125,000 or (B) acquire (including, without
limitation, by merger, consolidation, lease or acquisition of stock or

course of business and consistent with past practice in connection with
Harveys' hotel, casino and related operations, (2) acquisitions of
equipment and other non-current assets in the ordinary course of business
and consistent with past practice in connection with Harveys' hotel, casino
and related operations in an amount individually not to exceed $250,000 or
(3) other acquisitions which, individually, do not exceed $50,000 or which,
in the aggregate, do not exceed $125,000; provided, however, that neither
Harveys nor any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into any agreement with a
term of greater than one year which is not terminable within 30 days
without cost (other than a de minimis cost) to Harveys or such Subsidiary;

Federal income tax purposes from those employed in the preparation of its

              (xvii) except for employment arrangements permitted by this

Gaming Laws), from the date hereof until the Closing, each of Harrah's and

cure before the Closing Date, any event, transaction or circumstance, as
soon as practical after it becomes known to such party, that causes or will
cause any covenant or agreement of Harrah's or Harveys under this Agreement
to be breached in any material respect or that renders or will render
untrue in any material respect any representation or warranty of Harrah's
or Harveys contained in this Agreement. Nothing contained in Section 6.1
above shall prevent Harveys from giving such notice, using such efforts or
taking any action to cure or curing any such event, transaction or
circumstance. No notice given pursuant to this paragraph shall have any
effect on the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
contained in this Agreement for purposes of determining satisfaction of any
condition contained herein.

         Section 6.3 No Solicitation.

          (a) Prior to the earlier of the Closing and the termination of
this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, Harveys shall not, directly
or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, financial advisor,
representative or agent of such party (i) solicit, initiate, or encourage
any inquiries or proposals that constitute, or could reasonably be expected
to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage in negotiations or
discussions with any person (or group of persons) other than Harrah's or
its respective affiliates (a "Third Party") concerning, or provide any
non-public information to any person or entity relating to, any Acquisition
Proposal, or (iii) agree to or recommend any Acquisition Proposal.
"Acquisition Proposal" means any proposal or offer from any person relating

over 25% of any class of equity securities of Harveys or any of its
material Subsidiaries or (b) any tender offer or exchange offer that if
consummated would result in any person beneficially owning 25% or more of
any class of equity securities of Harveys or any of its material
Subsidiaries, or (c) any merger, consolidation, business combination,
recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving
Harveys (or any of its material Subsidiaries) and a third party in each
case other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          (b) Harveys shall notify Harrah's immediately after receipt by
Harveys (or any of their advisors) of any Acquisition Proposal or any
request for non-public information in connection with an Acquisition
Proposal or for access to the properties, books or records of such party by
any person or entity that informs such party that it is considering making,
or has made, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice shall be made orally and
in writing and shall indicate the identity of the offeror and the terms and
conditions of such proposal, inquiry or contact.

         Section 6.4 Employee Matters.

          (a) Harveys shall promptly pay or provide when due all
compensation and benefits earned prior to the Closing Date as provided
pursuant to the terms of any Employee Plans in existence as of the date
hereof and as otherwise set forth in Section 3.14(b) of the Harveys
Disclosure Schedule for all employees (and former employees) and directors
(and former directors) of Harveys. Harrah's and Harveys agree that Harveys
shall pay promptly or provide when due all compensation and benefits
required to be paid pursuant to the terms of any agreement with any
employee, former employee, director or former director in effect as of the
Closing.

          (b) (i) Harveys shall use its reasonable best efforts prior to
the Closing to obtain from each of the Harveys employees that would have
amounts payable to them, or subject to accelerated payments or vesting,
under all plans and agreements which would constitute "parachute payments"
within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code an agreement in writing to
limit amounts payable to them to those amounts that would be fully
deductible pursuant to Section 280G of the Code unless the stockholders of
Harveys approve such amounts pursuant to Section 280G(B)(5)(B) of the Code
(the "Waivers");

              (ii) Following execution of the Waivers, Harveys shall use
its reasonable best efforts to obtain written consent pursuant to Section
280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code to the amounts waived pursuant to the Waivers
from stockholders of Harveys owning at least 75% of the outstanding voting
stock of Harveys. Such consent shall by its terms become effective on the
20th calendar day following mailing of the Information Statement (or such
later time as may be required by the Exchange Act).

         Section 6.5 Written Consent and Information Statement. Following
the date hereof, Harveys shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain the
written consent of at least 75% of the voting power of Harveys approving
the compensation arrangements with certain of Harveys' employees, including
"excess parachute payments" pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. Harveys
shall, as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement,
prepare and file with the SEC the Information Statement, and any amendments
or supplements thereto, to be mailed to all holders of Harveys Class A.

         Section 6.6 Access to Information.

          (a) Upon reasonable notice, subject to applicable law, including
without limitation, antitrust laws and Harveys Gaming Laws, Harveys shall
(and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) afford to the officers, employees,
accountants, counsel and other representatives of Harrah's, reasonable
access, during normal business hours during the period from the date hereof
to the Closing, to all its personnel, properties, books, contracts,
commitments and records and, during such period, Harveys shall, and shall
cause its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other (i) copies of
monthly financial reports and development reports, (ii) a copy of each
report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or
received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal
securities laws and (iii) all other information concerning its business,
properties and personnel as Harrah's may reasonably request. Harrah's will
hold any such information furnished to it by Harveys, which is nonpublic in
confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement dated November
23, 1999, between Harrah's and Colony Capital LLC, as extended by the
letter agreement dated February 12, 2001 (the "Confidentiality Agreement").
No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this
Section 6.6 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or
warranty contained in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations
of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.

          (b) For purposes of complying with Section 1.3(d), the Sellers'
Representative and its officers, directors, managers, member, partners,
employees, financial advisors, legal advisors, accountants, representatives
and agents shall have reasonable access, during normal business hours
during the period of any dispute of the amount of Total Transaction
Consideration in Section 1.3(d) following the Closing, to Harveys' and its
Subsidiaries' applicable personnel, properties, books and records and
Harveys shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, promptly furnish to the
Sellers' Representative and its officers, managers, members, partners,
employees, financial advisors, legal advisors, accountants, other
representatives and agents all information as may be reasonably required
for the purposes specified in Section 1.3(d).

         Section 6.7 Governmental Approvals.

          (a) The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and use
their reasonable best efforts (and, with respect to the Harveys Gaming
Laws, the Harrah's Gaming Laws and antitrust laws, if applicable, shall use
their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective directors and
officers to do so) to promptly prepare and file all necessary
documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings,
to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, registrations, licenses,
findings of suitability, consents, variances, exemptions, orders, approvals
and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities which are
necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including, without limitation, all filings required under the
HSR Act, the Harveys Gaming Laws and the Harrah's Gaming Laws
("Governmental Approvals"), and to comply (and, with respect to the Harveys
Gaming Laws and the Harrah's Gaming Laws, to cause their respective
directors and officers to so comply) with the terms and conditions of all
such Governmental Approvals. The parties hereto and their respective
officers, directors and affiliates shall use their reasonable best efforts
to file within 30 days after the date hereof, and in all events shall file
within 60 days after the date hereof, all required initial applications and
documents in connection with obtaining the Governmental Approvals
(including without limitation under applicable Harveys Gaming Laws and
Harrah's Gaming Laws) and shall act reasonably and promptly thereafter in
responding to additional requests in connection therewith. The parties
hereto acknowledge that this Agreement is subject to the review and
approval of the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission. Harveys and Harrah's
shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable
each will consult the other on, in each case subject to applicable laws
relating to the exchange of information (including, without limitation,
antitrust laws and Harveys Gaming Laws), all the information relating to
Harveys or the Harrah's, as the case may be, and any of their respective
Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders which appear in any
filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any
Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Harveys and
Harrah's (the "Notifying Party") will notify the other promptly of the
receipt of comments or requests from Governmental Entities relating to
Governmental Approvals, and will supply the other with copies of all
correspondence between the Notifying Party or any of its representatives
and Governmental Entities with respect to Governmental Approvals; provided,
however, that it shall not be required to supply the other party with
copies of all communication relating to the personal applications of
individual applicants except for evidence of filing.

         (b) Harveys and Harrah's shall promptly advise each other upon
receiving any communication from any Governmental Entity whose consent or
approval is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement which causes such party to reasonably believe that there is
a reasonable likelihood that such consent or approval from such
Governmental Entity will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such
approval will be materially delayed. Harveys and Harrah's each shall use
its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions
reasonably necessary to defend any lawsuits or other legal proceedings
challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, seeking to prevent the entry by any
Governmental Entity of any decree, injunction or other order challenging
this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, appealing as promptly as possible any such decree, injunction or
other order and having any such decree, injunction or other order vacated
or reversed.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this
Agreement, Harrah's shall have no obligation or affirmative duty under this
Section 6.7 to dispose of any of its assets or properties, disassociate
itself from any person or entity, or agree to do any of the foregoing at
any time in the future, in connection with seeking any Governmental
Approval.

         Section 6.8 Publicity. Harrah's and Harveys shall agree on the
form and content of the initial press release regarding the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereafter shall consult with each other before
issuing, provide each other the opportunity to review and comment upon and
use all reasonable efforts to agree upon, any press release or other public
statement with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and
shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement
prior to such consultation and prior to considering in good faith any such
comments, except as may be required by applicable law.

         Section 6.9 Indemnification.

          (a) From and after the Closing, Harrah's agrees that it will, and
will cause Harveys to, indemnify and hold harmless each present and former
director and officer of Harveys (the "Indemnified Parties"), against any
costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or amounts paid in settlement incurred in
connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or
pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing,
whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing, to the
fullest extent that Harveys would have been permitted under Nevada law, its
Articles of Incorporation, its Bylaws and any indemnification agreements or
arrangements in effect on the date hereof to indemnify such Indemnified
Party.

          (b) For a period of six years after the Closing, Harrah's shall
maintain or shall cause Harveys to maintain in effect a directors' and
officers' liability insurance policy covering those persons who are
currently covered by Harveys' directors' and officers' liability insurance
policy (copies of which have been heretofore delivered by Harveys to
Harrah's) with coverage in amount and scope at least as favorable as
Harveys' existing coverage; provided that in no event shall Harrah's or
Harveys be required to expend in the aggregate annually in excess of 200%
of the annual premium currently paid by Harveys for such coverage; and if
such annual premium would at any time exceed 200% of the such amount, then
Harrah's or Harveys shall maintain insurance policies which provide the
maximum and best coverage available at an annual premium equal to 200% of
such amount.

          (c) In the event that Harveys or Harrah's or any of its
respective, successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any
other person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity
of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or
substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in
each such case, proper provision will be made so that the successors and
assigns of Harveys or Harrah's will assume the obligations thereof set
forth in this Section 6.9.

          (d) The provisions of this Section 6.9 are intended to be an
addition to the rights otherwise available to the current officers and
directors of Harveys by law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement, and
shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the
Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

         Section 6.10 Stockholder Litigation. Harveys shall give Harrah's
the reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of any stockholder
litigation against Harveys and its directors relating to the transactions
contemplated hereby.

         Section 6.11 Further Assurances and Actions.

          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein, each of the
parties hereto agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause
to be taken, alm appropriate action, and to do, or cause to be done, all
things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and
regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) using their
respective reasonable best efforts to obtain all licenses, permits,
consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of
Governmental Entities and parties to contracts with each party hereto as
are necessary for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, and (ii) to fulfill all conditions precedent applicable to such
party pursuant to this Agreement.

          (b) In case at any time after the Closing any further action is
necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest Harrah's
with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities,
franchises of any of the parties to the Closing, the proper officers and/or
directors of Harrah's and the particular Seller shall take all such
necessary action and such individual Seller shall bear the cost of any such
necessary action; provided, that if such action is necessary due to events
or circumstances particular to Harrah's, Harrah's shall bear the cost of
such action.

         Section 6.12 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales,
use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes (including all applicable
real estate transfer or gains Taxes) and related fees (including any
penalties, interest and additions to Tax) incurred in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne by the
Harveys stockholders, and Harveys, the Harveys stockholders and Harrah's
shall cooperate in preparing and filing all Tax Returns and other
documentation on a timely basis as may be required to comply with the
provisions of such Tax laws.

         Section 6.13 Harveys Stockholders. Voteco and Colony III shall
exercise their rights pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Stockholders Agreement
and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the other holders of
Harveys Common Stock to execute a joinder hereto in substantially the form
of Exhibit 6.13 hereto (a "Joinder") and each of such other holders of
Harveys Common Stock shall have executed such a Joinder; provided however,
that the foregoing shall be deemed to be satisfied if Harveys, concurrently
with the Closing, shall have the right to repurchase the Shares of any such
stockholder for the same price per share as other holders of Harveys Common
Stock; provided further, that in such event, the amount of Total
Transaction Consideration shall be reduced by the amount payable to such
stockholders upon Harveys' exercise of such right.

effect, all statutory waiting periods in respect thereof (including,
without limitation, under the HSR Act) shall have expired and no such

substituted in full the Iowa West Letter of Credit.

         Section 7.3 Additional Conditions to Obligations of Harrah's. The

any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in
the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date); or

          (c) by either Harrah's or Harveys if a court of competent
jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued a nonappealable

contemplated hereby.

         Section 8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of

exemptions, orders, approvals or authorizations which are necessary
pursuant to Harveys Gaming Laws or the Harrah's Gaming Laws to consummate
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and this Agreement is
