Item 5. Other Events
On October 5, 1999, Atlantic City Boardwalk Partnership, L.P. (the
"Partnership") filed a petition for reorganization in the United States
Bankruptcy Court, District of New Jersey under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code.
The Partnership owns the land, buildings, parking facility and
non-gaming depreciable, tangible property (collectively, "Hotel Assets") of The
Claridge Hotel and Casino ("Claridge") located in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The
Partnership leases the Hotel Assets to The Claridge at Park Place, Incorporated
("New Claridge"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Claridge Hotel and Casino
Corporation ("Corporation"), under operating leases.
Following its bankruptcy filing, the Partnership sent a no-action
request letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission seeking concurrence of
the staff that it would take no enforcement action against the Partnership if it
modified its reporting requirements in light of the Partnership's financial
situation and lack of trading activity in its securities. The Partnership
proposed filing copies of its monthly United States Trustee reports under cover
of Form 8-K in lieu of Forms 10-K and 10-Q. While the Partnership has not yet
received a response to its no-action request, it is nevertheless filing a copy
of its first trustee report as an exhibit to this form.
Item 7. Exhibits
