"estimated," "potential," "goal," "outlook," and similar expressions, as they relate to either company or their

reflect only current beliefs and assumptions with respect to future business plans, prospects, decisions and

are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and contingencies, which could cause the companies' actual
operating results, performance or business plans or prospects to differ materially from those expressed in,
or implied by, these statements. Such risks, uncertainties and contingencies include, but are not limited to,
statements about the benefits of the merger, including future financial and operating results, the companies'
plans, objectives and expectations and other intentions and other statements that are not historical facts.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-
looking statements: (1) the risk of the failure of the companies' shareholders to approve the merger; (2) the
risk that the businesses would not be integrated successfully; (3) the risk that the cost savings and any
revenue synergies from the merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected;
(4) the risk that Rick's applicable average trailing twenty day average stock price per share may not equal
or exceed $8.00 pursuant to the formula i in the merger agreement; (5) the applicable disruption from the
merger may make it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees ore suppliers; and
general economic conditions and uncertainties or consumer sentiment in the companies' markets.
Additional factors that could cause the companies' results to differ materially from those described in the
forward-looking statements are described in Rick's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC
December, 17, 2009 and VCG Holding's annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, filed with the SEC June
